Is Best Buy down?

I'm having a problem

Partially downchecked moments ago

Part of Best Buy is not answering our probes: its web surface from US-West. Its API, the surface we treat as the service's own, answered from every region we check.

Functional endpoints verified

No outage recorded in the 14 days we have measured Best Buy (since Aug 20, 2026).

Best Buy's online store serves United States and Canadian shoppers, so we check it from our US regions only.

Best Buy publishes no status feed we can read, so the only independent reading here is ours on the left.

Why some readings show as awaiting data. 2 of 4 readings for Best Buy came back as a filtered response to our automated checks (a response code that refuses automated clients, such as 403, 406, 429 or 451, a redirect loop, or a timeout we could rule out as a real outage using a second endpoint) rather than a normal success or failure. That tells us about our own probe's reception, not about Best Buy's actual health, so we publish no verdict for those readings rather than guessing in either direction. Read how we tell the difference.

Is it Best Buy, or is it you?

Watching an outage above does not tell you whether your own connection or site is also having a problem. Enter your own URL for one live check, right now, no signup. This checks the site you enter, not Best Buy -- it cannot diagnose Best Buy's own systems.

What we measured, function by function

Best Buy answers on more than one surface, and they can fail apart. Each row is one surface, checked from the same regions. The verdict above follows the api row, because that is the surface we treat as this service's own; a failure on any other row is a partial outage, not a full one.

These are unverified reports from people using Best Buy, counted separately from what our own probes measure. Anyone can file one, no account is needed, and the region on a report is chosen by the person filing it. We never open, extend or close an outage in our record based on report volume: only our own measurements do that. We have not received any reports for Best Buy yet, which is not evidence that nothing is wrong.

Recent outages

No outages on record yet for Best Buy.

measured entries are our own probes' readings; declared entries are the vendor's. How this check works

We have been measuring Best Buy since August 20, 2026. We show nothing from before that date, and we never add an outage we did not observe ourselves, from any source.

We will tell you when our probes stop reaching Best Buy, and again when they can reach it again. That is our own measurement from ten regions, not Best Buy's status page. No account, no card.

Double opt-in: nothing is sent until you click the link in the confirmation email. One email when a measured outage opens, one when it closes, and a one-click unsubscribe in every one. We do not send anything else to this address.

Best Buy uptime measured by RealUptimeLive, from this page's own readings.

The badge shows the share of our probes that succeeded over the last 30 days, and the window is printed on it so the number always says what period it covers. If our readings go stale it says stale, and if we have no readings it says so: it will not show green on data we cannot vouch for. Free, no account, and it links back here. See how the badge works for every window and the honesty rules behind it.

What Best Buy's SLA implies, from our measurement

At or above your target

We measured none of downtime for Best Buy over the 337h 32m since we started watching it on 2026-08-20, which is 100% uptime by our reading. A 99.9% target allows 20 minutes over that period.

By our measurement there is no shortfall to claim for this period.

This is computed from our own probe measurements, not from Best Buy's SLA instrumentation. Their contract is normally measured against their own systems, with their own exclusions and a claim window, so their figure and ours will differ. Use this to start the conversation and ask for their number. It is not legal advice and it is not a determination of what you are owed.

What we check

primaryfunctional: live API
https://api.bestbuy.com/v1/products.json
secondary
https://www.bestbuy.com/
RealUptime is not affiliated with Best Buy; the name identifies what we measured, and nothing here speaks for Best Buy's own team. We send a single web request to Best Buy from 2 regions on our own schedule and time the response. We do not see inside Best Buy's systems, do not use an account or real transaction, and are not the same signal Best Buy's own team has access to. Treat this as one external data point, not a verdict. At least one endpoint we check for Best Buy is a real functional API call (marked “functional” above), not just a landing page, so a clean read there is a stronger signal than reachability alone, though it still does not cover every feature of the service. Best Buy's online store serves United States and Canadian shoppers, so we check it from our US regions only. Read the full methodology.
