Promising review: "Love love love Tea Drops! The box and design of the drops alone get you excited to make tea (and show off) but this was all about convenience for me. I love loose leaf tea, but as a consultant it was really difficult to get good tea on the go! Once I discovered Tea Drops I had to try! They are individually packaged so I throw a few in my bag and all I need is hot water! It’s sweet, full of flavor and ready in seconds! They leave a little residue, but if you get the multi-pack you won’t need to drink all they way to the last drop, lol. I have recommended to all of my friends!" —Laya_B

Promising review: "This is amazing! I bought this for a gift for my husband who drinks iced coffee all year long. He says it makes such a smooth tasting strong iced coffee. He gets two drinks out of each batch that he makes. It's easy to clean and can go in the dishwasher. Durable — I know as I'm clumsy and have dropped it several times without an issue. We are considering getting a second one!" —rnnichole

Promising review: "I bought this for my husband as a gift for Fathers Day. He loves the grinder and so do I! We've being using whole bean coffee for a long time and grinding the beans with an electric grinder. We thought we were pleased with the taste of coffee after grinding with the electric grinder. However, this Java Press Manual Grinder with Conical Burr Mill has shown us what we were missing! We're sold on this product and thankful we made the purchase." —MP

If you think they'd be more drawn to that orb of light, this lamp has a similar look!
Promising review: "This is an amazing product. Nice finish, very sturdy, and a very convenient alternative to buying a big bulky night stand. Especially for bedrooms with limited or tight spaces. I bought this because I didn’t want to buy a big nightstand and I’m very happy with my purchase. Will eventually buy more of these as holiday gifts!" —Keith

I highly recommend these!" —Megan Harding

Promising review: "Essential board game for anyone who plays board games. The last generation had Monopoly, and we now have Ticket to Ride. This game is played by my wife and myself on a regular basis, and my 7- and 5-year-old love it as much as we do. Great family game and a great game to introduce to non-gamers. It has tons of replayability and is always competitive fun. If you like games, you must have this in your collection." —Erik

Promising review: "This is part of the Lego Ideas line — user submitted builds that Lego will consider selling if enough people vote for it. I was very happy to see this one recently make it to the marketplace and had to get it. It is really an unusual set and looks great on display. The ship itself is rather small for a set of this price, but of course, the real point is the look with the stand and bottle — which is every bit as awesome as you would expect. My pre-teen and teen Lego fans in our family all give this one high marks!" —TOPJOB7
Get it from Amazon for $55.99.
The headphones feature swiveling ear cups, a built-in microphone for hands-free calls, and last for 30 hours on a single charge.
Promising review: "Received these headphones as a birthday gift and I am far from disappointed! Much better sound quality than I expected. These, in my opinion, rival Bose headphones.

Simply download the accompanying app to each of your phones to begin tapping back and forth to each other. Once they're set up, just tap one bracelet to make the other one vibrate and light up, no matter the distance between them!
Promising review: "I bought these for my boyfriend and myself who live 700 miles apart. These really help make the distance seem shorter as it feels like he's right there with me when I get a tap. I'll be at work and get a tap from him and it brightens my day. A sweet message combined with a tap from the bracelet helps to make me feel better about being apart." —Casey LDR
Get it from UncommonGoods for $98 (with four different colored bands available for $8 each) or Amazon for $98.

I have one of these and cannot recommend it enough. I love to be tucked in or have some pressure on me when I sleep, but a weighted blanket can be just too much sometimes, especially during the summer in an apartment with no AC. The Hatch sleep pod keeps me nice and cozy but is breathable, so I don't get overheated. Added bonus of bringing the chances of my uncovered feet being grabbed by monsters in the night down to 0%.
Get it from Hatch Sleep for $110 (available in two sizes).
The Dutch oven is oven safe up to 500 degrees.
Promising review: "I’ve always wanted a Dutch oven but the price tags always kept me away until this beauty came along. It combines great design, beautiful color, and an amazing price all in one! Very well-made, beautiful inside, and very durable. I can’t wait for the holidays to use it and cook for my family. Love it!" —Pam03

Promising review: "I am obsessed! The zipper keeps everything secure and in place. This bag is the perfect size and fits a decent amount of things (like my MacBook!) I couldn’t recommend this bag more. It’s durable, stylish and goes with absolutely everything." —stella425
Get it from Madewell for $178 (available in three colors).
Promising review: "This feels sooo much better in the hands than the bulkier original Switch, that I can't go back. Even though it's lighter, it feels more solid as the Joy Cons do not come off, and it doesn't bend like the old one did. My arms don't get tired at all holding this. AND it had an actual D-pad! I also do not notice the smaller screen when playing, at all. It's just a much more pleasant handheld experience, which is exactly why I go it." —J. fox
Get it from Amazon for $199.99 (available in four colors).

Promising review: "I'm really loving this machine! It is super simple and very fun to operate. I love how I can choose how much gas I want to carbonate the water with as my tastes tend to vary daily! I can honestly say it has me drinking twice as much water. Additionally the machine is absolutely gorgeous, it looks amazing on my countertop and feels very solid!" —Claudia
Get it from Amazon for $219+ (available in four finishes).
The mixer has a five-quart stainless steel bowl and comes with a coated flat beater, a coated dough hook, a six-wire whip, and a pouring shield to help you whip up any delectable bake with ease.
Promising review: "If you're trying to decide what brand mixer is right for you, stop now and purchase a KitchenAid. Yes, they're more expensive than other brands, but they last. And really, a mixer is an appliance you should only buy once in your life (my mom still has hers from the '70s and uses it often!). Not only does this appliance work as a mixer (it comes with a beater, whisk, and very useful dough hook), but I also use it constantly with the KitchenAid ice cream attachment. The KitchenAid pasta attachment is also easy to use with the mixer, as is the meat grinder. This mixer does the work for you and will make cooking and baking so much easier. You'll wonder how you ever survived without it!" —Susie Williams
Get it from Amazon for $229.99+ (available in 50 colors).
