Nothing’s portable Bluetooth CMF Speaker S offers great performance, design and usability at an amazing price point. Inspired by the geometric angles of a milk carton, it features customizable panels, a convenient utility hook, and an intuitive physical control knob. Pair it with a second one to create a stereo pair. Don’t let its compact size fool you—a custom 45mm driver with adaptive tuning and two passive radiators on its sides pushe a punchy 10W of adaptive sound. Use its equalizer to customize your sound or use its presets. The CMF Speaker S has an impressive 18-hour battery life per charge, an IP68 dust- and water-resistance rating, Auracast party chaining and NFC fast pairing, too. This little marvel is built for adventure and everyday use.

If you’re ready to up your coffee game you’ve found your new grinder. Weber Workshops has earned its accolades among coffee professionals, enthusiasts and nerds, and any new release merits attention. The EG-1 80mm Flat Burr Electric Grinder has been re-engineered to even higher specs. It features an integrated bean feeder, an ion generator that neutralizes static as the grounds exit the burr chamber, intrinsic alignment and concentricity of the burr mechanism without needing to be manually aligned, customizable vibe tone oscillations that clear grounds from the burr teeth after grinding, an easy-off burr chamber cover and two magnetically mounted burr sets—the all around CORE and the ULTRA which is engineered specifically for filter brewing. That it’s also beautiful to behold goes without saying.

You are likely aware that liquid laundry detergent is mostly water and comes in large plastic containers—and yet we expend a lot of effort, cost and pollution moving these containers around, just to wind up in a landfill. Then there’s the contents, which are often full of chemical surfactants, phthaletes, preservatives and more. There are several more natural options, like Nellie’s, which packages its small cubes in a square aluminum box. Nothing exotic in their very clean formula, which includes baking soda, citric acid, sodium carbonate, salt, natural enzymes, sodium metasilicate, alcohol ethoxylate as a biodegradable surfactant. One little cube, tossed in the washer drum, is all you need. We prefer the unscented version, but it’s also available in Spa Day, Lavender and Fresh Linen, all naturally scented. They also make dishwasher cubes and other laundry products. There are 64 cubes in a box, get four boxes and save $20.
