Matic Robot Vacuum + Mop has been cleaning up CH HQ for a few weeks now, and we’re impressed both by how well it performs and how considered its design is. From the site to unboxing, set up and operation Matic makes it easy. It has a pretty unique form factor with swagger despite its compact size, and small touches like googly-eye stickers give it more personality than most robot cleaning devices. The app is well designed and easy to use. The data it collects stays on device, meaning maps of your home or office aren’t uploaded and shared and stored remotely. Advanced computer vision (it has five cameras) help it view and map your space, allowing it to easily operate in low or no light and avoid obstacles. Vacuumed material (including liquids) goes into a HEPA-12 bag, which has gel-forming salts that solidify the liquid, resulting in a single bag that is easily removed and replaced without needing to empty a dirty liquid chamber. The rotating microfiber mop uses fresh cleaner, and what comes off it when it cleans itself also goes into the bag. Designed and assembled in California, Matic has consistently met and exceeded our tests, easily cleaning crumbs in corners and dog hair everywhere, and its mop takes care of minor spills easily. While we truly have no notes, the office dogs would definitely tell you not to bring one home.

Dom Pérignon only releases a vintage when it feels it has something to say, and all of its releases are vintages—there is no standard product. Unlike most Champagne maisons who strive for consistency in their expressions and style, Dom Pérignon consistently seeks to create vintages that push and pull at the brand’s hallmark elasticity. The maison has partnered with Damien Hirst, who created a gift box and the bottle’s label, featuring a new take on his 2001 Kaleidoscope works. He took inspiration from the brand’s crest / label and made that the repeating element in the works, a blue and purple one for the Dom Pérignon Vintage 2018 and a pink and red one for the Dom Pérignon Rosé Vintage 2010. The 2010 Rosé rose from a cooler than usual spring, a hotter than usual summer, and a dryer year—until an August deluge dispensed months of rain in a 48 hour period, impacting some of the grapes with a common fungus. The grapes matured quickly and were harvested quickly thereafter, and the resulting vintage is one of contrasts and tension between “light and darkness.” It’s a great looking addition to a great wine, ready to be enjoyed or gifted. Dom Pérignon x Damien Hirst Vintage 2018 is priced at $305.

At a recent sushi dinner in Tokyo we were presented with a rectangular tatami mat. It was both a thoughtful gesture and a moment to put our phones screen-side down and focus on our meal. Founded in 1740, Kuboki Tatami makes a full range of tatami products and clearly isn’t stuck in its past, continuing to bring tatami to the way people live. The phone mat comes in nearly 40 different colors and patterns and is now part of our everyday carry—with both a physical purpose (keeping your phone germ and dirt free) as well as a note to slow down and enjoy a meal with presence.

The “C” in the new Nikon Z5IIC stands for “casual” and incorporates scene modes for the first time in any Nikon full-frame camera. Toggle the camera to a scene and the camera does the rest—night, portrait or any of its 15 modes. Unlike a typical point-and-shoot this is a full-frame mirrorless camera with a 24.5 C-MOS sensor and the depth and clarity provided by the EXPEED 7 image processing engine – the same processor used on the brand’s flagship Z9. The biggest bonus is access to Nikon’s massive lens library, from current Z-series to historic F lenses back to 1967. Price is for the body only, multiple options are available with various lenses and accessories.

Thayer’s is a CH favorite for its natural, simple and effective formulations. One of their everyday basics—Thayers Pore Refining Pads—is a great way to clear away the dirt, grime, sweat and residue from your busy day. A simple, effective formula—witch hazel and salicylic acid on pre-moistened pads—is all you need. One side of the pad gently exfoliates, the softer side helps clear any impurities, and together this simple step reduces your pores and preps your skin for what’s next.

Though we typically read the books we recommend the urgency to celebrate the release of Marlon James’ The Disappearers feels more important than our ability to complete it in a timely manner. The recipient of many awards including the American Book Award and The Booker Prize (for A Brief History of Seven Killings), The Disappearers is one of the dozen books shortlisted for this year’s Booker Prize.
The book is a journey with pop culture and music as its muses, about Jamaican homophobia, sex, violence, colonialism, AIDS, domination, submission and life in the margins, told by several of its characters. The reviews, unanimous in their praise for the book, speak to it better than we could:
“This Masterpiece Is the Novel of the Decade, if Not the Century” (The New York Times)
“The unrelentingly raw and profane vision is enlivened by the energy of the writing, and in particular its infusions of Jamaican slang. Mr. James does not simply reproduce the island’s singular patois; he uses it to create abrasive auditory rhythms.” (Wall Streeet Journal)
“…this polyphonic 640-page doorstopper is an emotionally bruising narrative that roves “uptown, downtown, ghetto and gully” through Aids-era Kingston with sidetrack excursions to 1950s England and a closing leap to 2000s United States.” (The Guardian)
“The Disappearers ends up as a violence-driven protest, a scream of rage—like Nirvana’s final album—against a world that keeps trying to kill people like him and then pretends that they asked for it, or that they never existed.” (The Atlantic)

Crazy Mountain is a new non-alcoholic beer brewed that way (thanks to a proprietary yeast) instead of brewing and removing the alcohol, which uses electricity and can change the taste. Made by the team behind Casamigos (George Clooney, Rande Gerber and Mike Meldman) who know a thing or two about creating new brands in the beverage space, it’s certainly not the first but it is one of the better tasting. Available in original and lime flavors, it’s a recommended addition to your NA line up. Price is for two six packs (you can mix the two flavors if you like). Also available in retail and delivery outlets.

Health trackers have taken over the ring finger with clean and simple bands meant to blend in more than draw attention. Yoreh’s ring jackets are sterling silver sleeves that turn an Oura or RingConn into something worth looking at. Founded in 2023 by Fin Matson, the label casts everything in recycled 925 silver by traditional lost-wax method, drawing its sensibility from skateboarding, rock music and art rather than from the common jewelry counter. Each jacket is a solid shell—unplated oxidised silver or finished in 18k gold—shaped on the interior to clear the sensor array so heart rate, temperature and sleep tracking continue uninterrupted. Eight designs run from faceted and architectural to simply textured, and sizing follows the ring beneath it exactly: order a nine for a nine. Compatibility covers Oura Gen 3, Gen 4, Gen 5 and Oura Ceramic along with RingConn 2 and RingConn 3. Silver being silver, it will patina unless polished—a slow darkening that flatters the more sculptural styles. Handmade to order and dispatched within 14 to 21 days, prices range from $339 to $509.

Smoky Paloma incense comes in cigarette pack boxes and the incense sticks resemble cigarettes, so it looks like a smoking cigarette is in your ashtray, not a stick of incense.

Matching matches are included, and other accessories are available.

Whenever we book a vacation rental, the topic of conversation inevitably leads to “what’s the coffee situation?” Nine times out of 10, the house ends up having a sub-par pod device that simply doesn’t meet our standards. On a recent road trip to Cape Cod, we decided to bring the Terra Kaffe Demi—a compact, easy-to-use coffee maker that we’ve been loving at home—and it honestly improved our whole holiday experience. With a touch of a button it brews espresso, lungo, Americano, drip coffee and even hot water for the tea drinkers. To take things to the next level, try adding the Aero to your setup for hot frothed milk, cold foam and perfectly whisked matcha.

Most classic locking climbing carabiners have two innate design flaws. The gate closes against a hooked beak that tends to catch the rope. And, typically, you have to thread them shut, too. Black Diamond’s latest Magnetron is better. As its name suggests, it uses magnets both at the hookless nose and for the sliders on either side of the gate, and there’s no hook. Instead, the magnets instantly fasten the lock shut, requiring no secondary action. That saves you energy during a taxing climb. Another bonus: the Magnetron is made of 25% pre-consumer recycled aluminum, so manufacturing them burns less carbon.
