Best for the busy bee who forgets to hydrate
HidrateSpark PRO
Staying hydrated is super important, but unless you’re working out, it’s not always at the top of the daily to-do list.
This water bottle by HidrateSpark glows (both literally and figuratively) when it’s time to get those sips in. The bottle tracks water intake by syncing via Bluetooth to the HidrateSpark app, keeping you updated on your daily intake goal. Reviewers say it’s a handy and fun reminder, especially when you’re stuck at your desk with hydration as the last thing on your mind.
There’s a small range of sizes and styles to choose from (the “chug” bottle or one with a built-in straw, stainless steel, or plastic) plus six glowing color combinations, or you can create your own through the app.
One other perk: If you happen to lose the water bottle, the app has a feature to help you locate it.

Hatch Restore
Want to gift someone sleep tech but can’t decide between a sound machine, sunrise alarm, smart light, or alarm clock? Hatch Restore is all of those in one gentle-looking globe for the nightstand.
This gadget is a great choice for someone who could use more consistency in their sleep routine to help fuel their lifestyle.
If you’re wondering what a sunrise alarm is, it’s a way to gently wake up with warm light and what the brand calls soothing alarm sounds. The light doubles as a soft night-light for reading, too (no disturbing blue light here).
Plus, Hatch Restore features a handful of ways to unwind before bed through its exclusive channels that deliver relaxing soundscapes, stories, and mind/body exercises, much like a meditation app.
Similar to a sound machine, it has different options for blurring background noise through music, white noise, and others.
Hatch offers a 1-year warranty and a 60-night, money-back guarantee, so your giftee can change their mind after trying it out.

SHOP NOW AT BOWFLEXBest for those who need allergy relief and fresh air
Blueair Blue Pure 311
Air quality has been a popular topic of conversation for a few years. Air purifiers still need more research on their effectiveness, but many folks who have used some higher quality machines swear by them, saying they help provide relief from allergies, smoke, cooking odor, and more.
Blueair has become one of the more trusted names in air purifying. One of our writers tried an air purifier by a different brand before switching to a Blueair purifier, and they were immediately impressed by the difference. Here’s their take:
We tested it
“After just a few days of running their machine on ‘everyday’ mode, I barely noticed any lingering cigarette smoke odor from my neighbors as I had previously. The first air purifier I purchased didn’t seem to touch the odor.
“Blueair has a 360 design, which may be part of why it performed better than my first air purifier, which was designed to be placed against a wall. This machine is also very easy to use, with just one button you press to select the fan speed.
“This machine has a light indicator to tell you how the air quality is at any given minute. For example, when I spray some perfume or hair spray, the sensor immediately picks up on the change in the air, alternating the light from blue (healthy air) to yellow or red (fair and bad). If you want to turn on ‘boost mode’ when the light changes, that seems to get the air back to healthy (blue light) faster. You can also shut off the light indicator at night, so the light won’t keep you awake.”
The Blue Pure 311 model is designed for medium spaces. The brand makes it simple to choose the best model based on room size, which affects how loud the fan may sound. If you select a model intended for larger spaces and place it in smaller ones, like an office, you may not be happy with the noise level.
You’ll have to tell your giftee that they should change the filter every 6 months, which means this gift does come with upkeep costs (including a possible small bump in your electric bill). But improved air quality could prove worth future investments.
Blueair offers a 60-day home trial.

Ember Mug²
The Ember mug is a popular smart mug that keeps coffee nice and hot. With coffee boasting unique health benefits, this is a thoughtful gift to help coffee drinkers get the most out of their experience.
You get to choose your exact drinking temperature — anywhere from 120 to 145°F (49 to 63°C) — becoming your own barista of sorts.
There are two sizes: The 10-ounce mug gets you 1.5-hour battery life, and the 14-ounce gets you 80 minutes. If you keep it on its coaster, it’s all-day battery life, according to the brand.
It’s available in three colors (white, black, and gray). You can also grab the travel mug for hot coffee on the go, though the price is higher for this one.

Cricut Joy
Some say crafting is self-care. Well, the Cricut Joy may spark joy for the DIY lover on your list.
This smart cutting and writing machine helps you crank out creative custom vinyl decals, labels, greeting cards, and more.
It connects to your phone via Bluetooth so you can access the app, which, according to the brand, allows you to make something in just 15 minutes (unless you want to make a night of it, of course).
Some users say this model is best for beginners and those wanting to save some space. (Other models by the brand are a bit bulkier.)

Epic Air Sport ANC True Wireless Earbuds
Concerned about wireless earbuds falling out during an intense workout? This offering from Epic aims to fix that by strapping comfortably over the ear.
One of our writers had a chance to give them a whirl. Here’s what they thought:
We tested it
“I’ve used these during the sweatiest workouts and admittedly have even fallen asleep in them, and they stay put. My routines are much more comfortable without fretting about them falling out. They come with a carrying case that charges them easily. You charge the case by plugging it into any USB-A charging port, but the downside is that the charging cable is very short.
“The sound quality may not match other studio quality options on the market, but the impressive battery life, budget-friendly price point, and wearability for active lifestyles make them a win for me and a good gift idea for others in the same boat.”
The Epic Air Sport wireless earbuds have active noise canceling at three levels: sound on, off, and “Be Aware,” which helps you stay aware of your surroundings. They come with a slew of different-sized attachments, so they can fit in most ears.
Compared to more popular name-brand products with similar features, these are a great value at their price point.
