    72 Of The Best Father’s Day Gifts To Give In 2023

    You better believe your dad would appreciate a sweet outdoor canopy swing.

    Hi shoppers! At this point, it's likely that some gifts may not arrive in time for 6/18: it all depends on the retailer, the item, where you live, and how much $$$ you're willing to spend on expedited shipping.

    So please enjoy our gift ideas, but understand that, for many of these items, you'll have to simply let your loved one know that their gift may be arriving *later*.

    1. A ThermoPro meat thermometer with Bluetooth capabilities that'll let Dad know his steak is *perfectly* cooked to his liking — no more second guessing when he's workin' the grill while also trying to entertain guests with endless witty banter.

    2. A stylish desk clock Dad won't believe you thought of picking out for him all on your own (no worries — I won't tell him you discovered the idea while scrolling this list).

    a silver round desk clock on a wooden stand

    3. An Adventure Challenge book designed for the whole family to get in on — it has 50 scratch-off activities to help dad and all his kiddos have a blast together while making unforgettable memories.

    4. A classic bocce ball set like the set your grandparents had growing up that'll bring back fond memories for them and help you all create new ones together.

    5. A pack of Happy Socks that'll make a delightful gift for the most fun dad in your life — and, ideally, encourage him to replace some of the socks he's worn so many times there are holes in 'em.

    6. A 64-piece iFixit kit for when their most used gadget gives out and they'd rather try to repair it themselves than buy a new one.

    A tool kit to fix small gadgets

    7. A set of LED light saber chopsticks they'll probably misplace in their utensil drawer but then have the opportunity to exclaim "THESE are the ones I've been looking for!" once they finally find them. They'll also pair perfectly with you and your dad's annual re-watch of all the Star Wars films in order (4, 5,6, 1, 2, 3, of course).

    8. A pack of super-strong magnets Dad can attach to the top of the fridge to ensure their drink of choice is *always* refreshingly cold without taking up space for leftovers.

    9. A turntable to help bring music into the living room in an old school (but now super trendy) way while also adding in a conversational piece of decor.

    My husband has this record player and it's become such a beloved piece in our home. We love putting it on during dinner time and letting the music drift from the living room into the kitchen while we cook. Super soothing and gives you an excuse to start searching for all kinds of vinyl records to add to your collection. Note that you'll need to also pick up a pair of speakers to get the full experience.

    Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Father's Day (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

    Get it from Amazon for $149.

    10. And an acrylic vinyl holder to store some of their favorite records while also showing anyone who sets foot in your living room what great taste in music they have.

    11. A wireless charger that'll open up to reveal an array of cords to ensure they'll be able to charge any device anywhere at anytime. Welcome to the future, Dad.

    12. A Lego Land Rover Classic Defender 90 for anyone who has always dreamt about owning this timeless vehicle and would happily settle for one made from Lego Bricks.

    Lego

    My husband collects Lego cars and has them on display in his office — this was the most recent addition to his collection. He's been building Legos for decades now (literally), so this didn't take him very long at all to put together, despite the fact it has 2,336 pieces in the set. It looks very cool on the shelf, and he had a blast building it! Definitely worth the splurge for Lego and Land Rover fans.

    Shipping info: Orders typically ship in 3 to 5 business days, but you can upgrade to Express shipping for an additional fee.

    Get it from Lego for $239.99.

    13. Bananagrams – it'll *lit*erally bring a smile to any bookworm's face — it combines all the fun of crossword puzzles and Scrabble for a fast-paced game anyone who loves words will appreciate.

    14. A golf club cleaning squeeze bottle complete with a nylon brush that'll ensure dad's clubs, golf balls, and shoes are the freshest looking ones on the course.

    15. A Jeopardy trivia book to properly commemorate one of the greatest men to ever grace our televisions. You two can test each other and see who would actually become a Jeopardy champion.

    16. A heated eye massager complete with five different massage modes and Bluetooth music so they can fully indulge and relax while relieving pain from eye strain and headaches.

    17. mug warmer to keep on their coffee table so they can continue to sip on hot coffee even if they completely forgot about it while getting the kids ready for school.

    Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed

    BuzzFeed editor Jenae Sitzes can confirm this gadget is worth the money:

    "After seeing this coffee warmer all over BuzzFeed Shopping and even gifting my dad one for Christmas, I finally decided to buy one for myself. Based on all the reviews, I was pretty confident I'd soon be kicking myself for not getting it sooner, and that proved to be true: This thing not only looks good, but works great for keeping my coffee warm all day long (because yes, I'm one of those people that'll sip on coffee until 5 p.m., all right!!). I was kind of worried it'd be too small for some of my larger mugs, but the center plate is bigger than expected and accommodated every mug in my (very eclectic) collection perfectly. I can confirm that flat-bottomed mugs are the best option for using with this warmer as they do stay hotter, but it still keeps my concaved-bottom mugs warm enough for my taste. Also, I looove how sleek the white version looks on my white desk, and the auto-shutoff function is a nice safety feature as an absent-minded person."

    Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Father's Day (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

    Get it from Amazon for $19.79+ (available in six colors).

    18. And a hilarious mug that'll definitely start a lighthearted argument amongst you and your siblings, but will make Dad chuckle to himself when he uses it each morning.

    a white mug that says "my favorite child gave me this mug" on it

    19. An easy-to-use ice cream scoop with a curved shape only a genius could've designed that'll smoothly cut through ice cream and create a picture-perfect scoop time and time again. Pair it with some of Dad's favorite pints for a delicious and thoughtful gift.

    Promising review: "I think I just found the best ice cream scoop ever! I was very surprised when I took it out of the box because it has some weight to it, so I knew right away that it would not break easily. It scoops ice cream beautifully and is dishwasher safe. I am so glad TikTok made me buy this!" —MamaKickAsh

    Get it from Amazon for $11.97+ (available in 13 colors and a two-pack). 

    20. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom for Nintendo Switch — an absolute must-have for anyone who likes to unwind after the kids go to sleep with an open-world adventure. It'll be a great gift for the new dad who has been playing games from this franchise for years.

    Amazon

    My colleague Jenae says it best: "Tears of the Kingdom, for those unaware, is the direct sequel to 2017's mega hit Breath of the Wild, and it's easily the most anticipated Nintendo Switch game this year, maybe even the past *several* years. Though story details are somewhat slim, we know that Link will take to the skies and explore the mysterious islands floating *above* Hyrule as well as return to the sprawling landscapes below, with a host of new abilities to wield for puzzle-solving, exploration, and combat. I got the chance to play over an hour of Tears of the Kingdom at a recent Nintendo event, and it's gotten me seriously pumped for this latest Zelda adventure. Graphics- and gameplay-wise, it very much feels like Breath of the Wild, but with more freedom than ever before to manipulate the environment and get creative with how you approach, well, pretty much anything. I know I'll be diving in on release day (May 12!) and will probably lose over 100 hours of my life to TOTK like I did with BOTW, and if you love Zelda, open-world games, and (TBH) cozy vibes, it might just be the *best* way to treat yourself."

    Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Father's Day (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

    Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (available physically or as a digital code, which can be redeemed on the Nintendo eShop). It's playable on any Nintendo Switch console, including Switch OLED and Switch Lite.

    Psst — if you've been itching to get a new console lately or upgrade your current Switch model, Nintendo just released a *gorgeous* special edition of the OLED model for Tears of the Kingdom, available for $359.99!

    21. A T-shirt with a racetrack on the back, so Dad can lay on the floor of the playroom and have a quick rest while simultaneously entertaining the kids. A win for everyone, if you ask me.

    22. An airplane phone holder to clip onto the tray in front of him whenever he travels — he'll never stress about only owning wireless headphones again! Added bonus? No need to *only* choose from the handful of meh movies the airline is showing.

    Promising review: "If you watch anything on your phone during a flight, you need one of these! I purchased for my husband and I for use on a recent flight, and they worked like magic. The design is lightweight and compact to pack, easy to 'hang' and adjust to keep your phone at eye-level to then sit back and relax. Definitely better than having to hold your phone in your lap or the tray table and get a kink in your neck looking down. Everyone sitting around us on the plane asked where we got them. Totally worth it and highly recommend." —Amy Fritzer

    Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Father's Day (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

    Get it from Amazon for $12.97 (available in two colors).

    23. A standing weeder (without the chemicals!) for anyone with a bad back who still wants an award-worthy lawn. If there's anything I know about dads (or at least every man in my life) they'd love nothing more than a flawless lawn.

    Made with a bamboo handle and powder-coated steel, it uses a simple lever system to made weeding easy. Added bonus? Grampa's Weeder is a small business!

    Promising review: "Oh my god, I friggin' love this tool. I bought this on a whim given we bought our first house and know nothing about caring for a yard. Boy has it come in handy. Our new house had a ton of weeds in the front yard and this tool helped me get most of them out in no time. In fact, the process of yanking out the weed was strangely satisfying! I don't think anyone can say that weeding is fun but this tool made it as close to fun as you can get, especially when you see a long root along with the weed you pulled." —JG

    Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Father's Day (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

    Get it on Amazon for $39.99.

    24. And a cordless grass trimmer that'll help them tackle hard-to-reach areas in their garden bed or simply get the job done if they are the proud owner of a tiny patch of grass.

    Amazon

    Promising review: "WOW!!! This is the fourth grass clipper I've had — all different brands. This is BY FAR the best! The blades cut well, it's easy to turn on and off (you don't need to be a contortionist or use two hands), fits nicely in my hand, and the battery lasts far longer than any other cutter I've had. I can't tell you how pleased I am! Highly recommend this. Haven't tried the trimmer yet, but can't imagine it not being just as great! SO glad I bought this." —suezieqt

    Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Father's Day (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

    Get it from Amazon for $29.98.

    25. A transparent mouse and memo pad he can use to keep his to-do list under hand, literally. He won't be able to make excuses about "forgetting to pick up milk" when it's written down in front of him all day, sorry!

    The pad itself is split into three sections: weekly plans, to-do items, and notes, and the top transparent cover for your mouse is non-slip and waterproof.

    Promising review: "What you see is exactly what you get. There are two transparent sheets to keep notes/cards and such separated. Writing on the mat is very comfortable, and I love being able to use it as a mouse pad as well. This uses a plastic-type sheet so you can just wipe them off. Since this mat can be cleaned, I don't see having to ever buy a replacement unless this one becomes torn. Of course, I did end up buying another one because I originally purchased this mat for work and loved it so much I purchased one for home use." —JC

    Shipping info: Available on Amazon Prime with 2-day shipping, non-Prime shipping options will still arrive by Father's Day (see Amazon's full shipping information here).

    Get it from Amazon for $13.88 (available in two colors).

    26. A new dad survival kit that comes with a waist bag and — essential for keeping going — some beef jerky and energy gum because they're now on the baby's time...not their own.

    27. A set of genius soda can covers that'll bring some longevity to Dad's favorite beverage — now he won't *have* to chug the whole thing in one sitting if he was only craving a few sips.

    Promising review: "Very solid product. It does exactly what it claims to do. It easily snaps on to any can I have, then opens and closes shut again for storage in my fridge. As you can see in my pictures, it’s leakproof when closed. I think it will be a great addition to my kitchen." —w_starling

    30. A mystical colorant to transform their fireplace into one seemingly filled with magic and dancing colors — and who wouldn't enjoy that???

    31. A Renpho percussion massager — a perfect gift for your partner who is forever complaining about the knots in their back (no thanks to the kiddo they're constantly toting around).

    32. A mini retro-inspired Bluetooth speaker that'll look darling regardless of where they display it. Hope everyone else in their life is ready for an endless slew of oldies to play throughout the house.

    33. A Yeti cooler your dad has probably always dreamt of owning — it'll keep their favorite drinks cool for DAYS (seriously), so they'll always be prepared whether they're planning a big camping trip or tailgating for the day.

    34. A splurge-worthy gaming chair so incredible they won't know how they ever lived without it — it was literally designed with ergonomics to ensure Dad will experience the utmost comfort while sitting in it for hours (and hours, if we're being honest).

    35. HYPERtheticals — an activity with 50 prompts your dad will loooooove using as an excuse to get you and your siblings together for a *weird* but interesting night of conversation.

    36. Round glasses that'll help Dad achieve a flawless John Lennon–look this summer.

    37. On-theme bottle labels you can use to toast to any dad's first Father's Day. Simply apply to them to Dad's favorite bottled beverage, pop 'em in the carrier, and *boom* cutest gift ever.

    Promising review: "I took the leap and bought my first blanket! I am in love with it! It is so soft. I love the weight it has. It keeps me at a good temperature. I have a feeling that I will be getting more. 😉" —Lelia R.

    BuzzFeed editor Elizabeth Lilly says she can even wear these ear buds and listen to a podcast while blow drying her hair with her round dryer brush! 

    Check out a TikTok of them if you're not yet convinced!

    Promising review: "Okay these are by far the best earbuds I’ve ever used. No exaggeration. My husband had these in his Amazon cart a couple of months ago but never checked out. Well it’s about to be Christmas soon, so I chose to get these on the sly for him. When they came in I wanted to make sure everything was working correctly before wrapping them up for Christmas. The sound quality is absolutely perfect, the noice cancellation is AMAZING! They were on low and the sound was crystal clear. I asked my 6-year-old son to talk so I could see how well they canceled out noise and I couldn’t hear him, so I told him to shout and I still couldn’t hear him at all. My husband will absolutely love these!! Also, now I need to get myself a pair as well! Definitely happy with my purchase!" —Ashley Haley

    40. Beckham Hotel Collection Bed Pillows because, if we’re being honest, the ones they've been sleeping on are starting to resemble Flat Stanley. It’s time for you to help upgrade your dad's sleeping situation. It's what he deserves!!!

    Promising review: "I was just looking at these pillows again in case I had to purchase new ones. I originally purchased them two years ago. They are the most wonderful and comfy pillows I've ever had. When I read the reviews saying they washed up badly, I was ready to buy new ones. Lo and behold, I washed them and dried them in the dryer, and they turned out great. I just have the older type stackable washer and dryer set, not large, just regular sized. I put both pillows in the washer on gentle, then put both pillows in the dryer. I ran the dryer on medium heat and ran the cycle several times, just to make sure. I'm happy they turned out so well 'cause I love these pillows!" —T. Rune

    43. An Xbox Game Pass Membership that'll provide the gamer dad in your life with more than 100 games a month. I wish them luck in choosing what to play first, jeez.

    44. And an Xbox Series S console — anyone raising a child deserves an outlet to have some serious fun once the baby finally goes to sleep (hopefully for the entire night, fingers crossed).

    45. Or a Surface Laptop 5 — because you and I both know their current computer has been on the fritz for over a year now and they deserve an upgrade. Dad can use this to play games, plan the next family vacay, and online shop (DUH!).

    a trio of surface laptops

    46. A hilarious customized caricature photo stand starring Dad's favorite person — you! Or perhaps it's Jennifer Lopez. Either way, it'll look excellent on his mantel.

    47. The Kerber's Farm Cookbook, which is filled with tons of delicious, easy-to-make recipes like apple cider donuts, lemon chicken orzo, and cheddar buttermilk biscuit egg sandwiches. It also offers tons of tips on planting and harvesting crops, caring for honeybees, and raising hens for fresh eggs.

    48. A comfy oversized sweatshirt you can personalize with the name of his kiddo(s), so when their cries wake you both for the umpteenth time he can toss it on before heading off to comfort/feed/change them. It'll ensure he's always nice 'n' warm even if he's bleary-eyed and exhausted.

    Heather Braga / BuzzFeed, BFFs and Babes

    BFFs and Babes is a woman-owned small business that sells customized apparel for both adults and kiddos — I have so many beloved items from them that I've truly lost count. 

    I have this sweatshirt (as seen in the photo to the left) and have been living in it since my son was born over a year ago. It's unbelievably soft and I love that I was able to add his name to it. I've even gotten it for my mom and all of my sisters (in the grandma and aunt styles, obvs). My son didn't sleep through the night until he was around 11 months (sigh). It was essential for me to have a comfy sweatshirt next to my bed at all times to throw on in the middle of the night before heading into his room to problem solve — no one wants to be tired and cold. I even wore it on my first mother's day (my baby wasn't even a month old and I simply wasn't ready to "get dressed"). 

    Shipping info: All estimated ship dates are noted on individual products, so check on the listing to ensure it'll arrive in time for Father's Day!

    Get it from BFFS and Babes for $75 (available in gray in unisex sizes S–2XL). You can also check out all of the customizable "Love On The Cuff" options here (there's a grandpa style as well!).

    Promising review: "No more tangled headphone cables! I bought a pair for my desk at home, and I'm purchasing another pair for my office. I love how neat and untangled my earbud cords are when using this organizer. It's leather, which I'm sure will last many, many years for such a great price." —Jane M

    Promising review: "We love this lounge chair!!! The price was fabulous!! (And just a note... If you take care of your things — i.e. cover up the swing with a tarp and bring the cushions in when not using it — It will stay like new. Sun and rain can age anything! Easy-peasy!!) This lounge swing is so comfortable, and made very well!! And it only took my hubby and I only 25–30 minutes to put together. Take my word for it... you are not going to find a nicer lounge swing at this price!!" —Marash

    52. A double-walled French press for the dad who appreciates the art of making coffee in the morning (and afternoon, if we're being honest). It comes in so many colors you can choose one that'll beautifully match their kitchen.

    53. A hot sauce-making kit that'll spice up any dad's life — ya' might want to pair it was a gallon of milk.

    Promising review: "We use this in every trip to avoid paying for extra weight as we travel internationally quite often. I have tested in several ways and also always note the weigh number in the airport. After several trips, I can say that the accuracy of it is right within 2 lbs. I've had it for almost two years and still using the same batteries." —Cass Young

    62. waterproof Kindle for any lit lover whose main goal at all times is to plow through a *ton* of books on their TBR list — this will ensure they can have *tons* of books at their fingertips at all times. Not to mention they can safely read it by the pool or at the beach.

    I have a Kindle and surprisingly have become a big fan of it — especially when traveling. While I absolutely prefer a hardcover book, it's nearly impossible to put more than two (which is a stretch in itself) in my suitcase along with my clothes, shoes, toiletries, etc. I read most of my books these days through the Libby app (all you need is a library card for access) which can be used via your phone or Kindle. No need to spend tons of money on novels when I simply am not someone who rereads them! I like that I can use this one near water without fear of it getting destroyed (yikes).

    63. Or a subscription to Book of the Month because there are few things as soothing to a bibliophile as cracking open a hardcover book while kicking back in the sunshine. They also offer audiobooks if that's more your dad's speed!

    64. A tabletop fireplace with removable glass so Dad can enjoy a freshly made s'more any time of year — yum.

    65. Saucemoto dip clip, because eating fries in the car just tastes better and no one should have to sacrifice their favorite dipping sauce to do so! I can't think of a better lil' gift to give your brother who can often be found eating Chick-fil-A in between driving their kids to and from soccer practice.

    Promising review: "How did I go so long without one of these??? The Saucemoto was my first 'TikTok Made Me Buy It' purchase and I have no regrets. It clips easily to my car's vent and the sauce cups clip in easily so I can dip and drive. No more trying not to dump the sauce by accident while steering with the same hand that's holding the dip cup. It even comes with a dip cup for those places that do the pouches for their sauces rather than the cups. (I'm looking at you, Arby's.) Ya know, you end up squeezing the sauce onto the wrapper that's balanced on your lap and you end up getting some sauce on your steering wheel. OR you try the whole 'wrapper and sauce on the passenger seat and try to dip while watching the road,' which usually doesn't turn out so great." —Pleasure Pamela

    67. A portable charcoal grill that comes in a carrying tote that doubles as a cooler, great for the dad who refuses to go *glamping* but is always down for a properly cooked dinner.

    68. And a hilariously accurate candle your dad will definitely get a kick out of — and it smells deliciously of lemon, bergamot, oakmoss, jasmine, and cedar.

    a candle with a blue label on it that says "dear dad thanks for getting us to the airport four hours early"

    69. A portable karaoke microphone that'll transform Dad's outdoor patio into a karaoke bar from the moment they connect it to the app of their choosing. Ahem, that's just me clearing my throat to treat you all to my rendition of Aladdin's "A Whole New World."

    70. A fishing rod rack Dad can attach to the back of the garage door to assure nothing ~fishy~ happens to their beloved rods.

    71. A 44-piece drawer organizer, so every nut, bolt, screw, or washer will always have a designated home.

    72. And an adorable (and functional) mini Marshall speaker Dad can count on to fill the entire house with the sweet sounds of Elton John, Jimmy Buffet, or  Led Zeppelin Whatever his musical preference — this lil' gadget will make sure *everyone* hears it loud and clear.

    BuzzFeed editor Maitland Quitmeyer is a big fan, she said: "I have this speaker and I *love* it — it lives right on my bookshelves (without taking up basically *any* room) and fills my apartment with high quality sound. The lil' portable size is perfect so I can grab it and take it into the kitchen for baking jams™ or into my bathroom for my latest in-shower karaoke session (sorry neighbors). I also barely *ever* have to charge it. And yes, that *is* a Jane Austen action figure next to it."
