    Promising review: "This lamp really exceeded my expectations. I bought it on a whim and honestly wasn't expecting that much, but I'm really happy with it. Feels like it's made of durable, quality material and emits a strong light (but it's not too bright. I use it in the evenings when I'm trying to wind down before bed and it's bright enough to light up my room without feeling like it's going to mess up my sleep cycles). Highly recommend — really does feel like you're watching a lovely sunset :)" —Amazon customer

    Promising review: "It's small and light! Easily carried in a backpack for those hike-in overnighters...The projector has a little speaker on the back that can get really loud, in a good way. Obviously not a Bose stereo system but does the job well without needing an external speaker (although there is a headphone jack for just such a use-case, but no Bluetooth connection). Use the included remote control to adjust the volume...The remote control is very responsive (you'll need two AAA batteries for the remote)... I got my Roku Stick, Chromecast, and Apple TV all to work through the HDMI port [USB-C-to-HDMIwithout issue. Again, just plugged them in and switched the source to HDMI. Looks and sounds fantastic. And from either the Chromecast or the Apple TV I was able to wirelessly cast my iPhone and iPad screens to the projector. Super convenient!...All in all, you can't beat the value and features on this little projector...I highly recommend!" —Jesh

    reviewer holding the water bottle next to their face, showing how big it is

    Promising review: "I love this jug! I have a hard time drinking water during the day and I don't think I've ever had a gallon of water in a day. The motivational slogans give me the extra 'oomph' I need to remind myself to stay hydrated (important in Arizona) and the hourly breakdowns help keep me accountable. I also love that it has a strap that I can use to carry it (because it's definitely heavy when it's full). Overall, it's well worth the money spent! My husband got jealous when he saw it and now he wants one for himself and we're going to have water drinking challenges :)" —Drea Crymes

    It works with desks as low as 27 inches. If you're tall or you have long legs, you can still use it while working from the couch.

    Promising review: "I've been using my DeskCycle for almost three years and I can't rave enough about it. I've become so accustomed to pedaling while I work that I find it difficult to sit still in situations where I don't have access to it (like meetings, for example.) It takes some getting used to in the beginning, but once it becomes habit you'll find yourself pedaling while creating spreadsheets without even thinking about it. I typically get anywhere between 50–70 miles in per day and have even inspired several people I know to get one of their own (one of my colleagues included.) I have one at home and one at the office — the one at home going on three years of use and it's still as quiet as the day I bought it (with daily use) and I haven't even had to change the batteries on the digital display yet...In short, highly recommended." —Jennifer Lankenau

    29. OR a HyperChiller beverage cooler if they love iced coffee, and iced coffee *only*. This gadget turns hot coffee into iced coffee in 60 seconds (yes, seconds) flat. All they need to do is fill the container with water and keep it in the freezer so it's always ready when needed.

    The dishwasher-safe container can also be used to cool chill tea, juice, wine, or whatever else you feel like drinking. No water comes into contact with your beverage, so you don't have to worry about dilution, either.

    Promising reviews: "Wow. Believe the hype. It really works and is easy to use. So much better than just waiting for your coffee to cool or putting it in the freezer. Great item. Had to wait months for it to be in stock." —Mary E. Burnett

    "I saw this on BuzzFeed constantly and finally caved and bought it, and I'm so glad I did. It does what it says it will; it lets you have homemade iced coffee that isn't watered down, very quickly. I typically don't swirl it around, I just leave the coffee in while I do something else for a bit and come back and it's cold enough. It really is super easy to clean, I usually swirl some water in it and pour it out until it runs clean after every use, and take it apart and wash it every once in a while... Overall really good product and totally worth the hype." Emma Scott

    30. A super durable retro-inspired Bluetooth speaker that's small in size but mighty in sound. It's the perfect addition to their kitchen, shelf, or desk space (and it's pretty adorable too!).

    Promising review: "Got this speaker as a gift for my super trendy and fashionable sister, quite honestly wasn't expecting it to be more than a cute fashion accessory. To say I was shocked at the quality of sound is an understatement. It's louder than my regular speaker — and it's less than a fifth of the size. Not to mention, it's soooo pretty and everyone always comments about how tiny it is. Surprisingly heavy and durable metal, not cheap plastic, which was a relief. My sister is obsessed with it and it's already her new favorite (and frequently Instagrammed) accessory. She has found a way to wear it with her outfits and brings it with her everywhere...10/10 would recommend as a gift for any fashionista/music lover or even if you just want to treat yourself."Nina

    By Rosie Jane

    This. Perfume. Smells. AMAZING! I am usually a citrus fruit, summer-scent kind of gal, but this sweet vanilla is my new go-to. It smells ~adult~ but doesn't have the overly strong smell of many fragrances that make you cough (which is why I stick to the sweet stuff). The combination of vanilla, chocolate, and hinoki wood somehow still feels youthful and it smells divine! Highly highly recommend, especially for the fall and winter months

    PS: It has a handle, too! An essential if you love taking all of your color options with you.

    Promising review: "I was looking for something to organize my poly-gel and gel polish supplies and tools, and stumbled across this portable Makartt organizer. Based on the positive reviews, I decided to give it a try, and the reviews weren't wrong! This organizer is sturdy, and I'm amazed at how much it holds! If necessary, you can actually put two mini bottles of gel polish in each slot. The side compartment for tools is perfect for my drill, bits, files, alcohol wipes, cuticle pushers, clippers, etc. I love the easy-carry handle and the fact that it's transparent so I can see all my products at a glance. Also, a big plus is that it opens on both sides, with storage on each side for your polishes." —chanteleigh

    42. A knit weighted blanket that'll make life easier in the sense of better sleep and being a calming hug when they need it. Because it's knit and has open spaces, this blanket will keep them relaxed without making them too hot. When not in use, it's the perfect throw for their couch or bed.

    Promising reviews: "I love this blanket! When I got it I thought, how in the world? But then I laid under it. It seems to be knitted like a giant fish net, but the material is really thick, silky, and soft. You pull it, and it springs back together... I love that I can get the weight without getting hot. And even though there is a lot of open space between the material, it still keeps you warm. It’s actually really cozy. The cat likes it. I have never had a blanket like this, but I will never go back to sand or bead weighted blankets; they are to hot and make me sweat. Sometimes trying something new can be a great thing." —dej92

    "First off, this is a well-made knitted blanket that breathes. I have both this one as well as a regular weighted blanket using glass beads for weight...Comparing the two, the knitted version provides a more uniform weight distribution than the beaded version. The knitted version is also cooler than my other... [and] is texturally pleasing, breathes far better, has more uniform weight distribution without 'pressure' points." —PFShelly
