Reviewed’s Best of Year Awards are here

We test thousands of products each year, but only a handful are crowned the best-of-the-best by our experts. We do it so you have confidence in the things you purchase, and here’s a pro tip for you: a lot of these products make fantastic gifts.

Let’s hit the highlights.

There’s a lot of tech out there, but we’ve selected the top performers as our favorites. This year, our favorite headphones are the Sony WH-1000XM5, which have brilliant noise-canceling technology and stellar sound. If it’s a new laptop you’re after, try the HP Spectre x360 14, or if you’re looking for the best bang for your buck, the Acer Swift X. The Sony A95K OLED blew our reviewer’s mind, easily winning this year’s top TV award. 

A deep clean is only as good as the products you use. This year’s top cleaning products will help you get things as sparkling as you’d like — and keep them that way, too. We’ve picked a vacuum for everyone: the one with lots of rugs, the one with a small space, and the one who’d rather let someone else do the cleaning. And if you’re looking for a new washer and dryer, we can help you there, too.

Your kitchen needs the best tools, whether you’re whipping up a secret family recipe or throwing chicken nuggets in the microwave. Refresh your basics with a new nonstick pan, dutch oven, knife set, and, most importantly, coffee maker. If gadgets and gizmos are your thing, you’ll love our top pressure cooker, ice machine, and air fryer. Over the whole meal planning thing? Shop our favorite meal kit — they’ll do the thinking for you.

Want even more recommendations? We’ve got one for everything you need. And if you want to keep the party going all year round, subscribe to our newsletter, where you’ll get expert advice and top recommendations in your inbox.

Happy holidays, y’all.
