Chicago Cutlery Racine 12-Piece Kitchen Knife Wood Block Set, $52 (Save 48%)

A good knife block set is a home chef’s best accessory — it helps users easily chop, cut, and dice vegetables and proteins. We loved this set from Chicago Cutlery and found it sliced thin slivers of tomatoes and pared strawberries with ease. Plus, after six months of testing, the knife blades remained sharp.

Chef'n Sweet Spot Ice Cream Maker, $38 (Save 30%)

It’s always a happy result when one of the simplest and most affordable options turns out to be the best. The plain design and included spatulas mixed up the creamiest ice cream of the day when compared to the other ice cream makers we tried. Each batch makes around 3/4 cup of ice cream, so it’s ideal for a hot summer day when you’re looking for a little pick-me-up to cool you off.

Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Body Mist SPF 70 Sunscreen Spray, $24 (Save 40%)

The sheer mist from Neutrogena has been a staple for our Hawaii-based editor, who relies on it to protect her skin while diving, swimming, and surfing. The bottle lasts her two weeks, as she applies it daily and reapplies throughout the day. Plus, it’s lightweight on the skin and provides impressive coverage. Out of the 54 sunscreens our editor tried, this SPF is the one we’ll all be reaching for this summer.

L'ange Hair Le Volume 2-in-1 Titanium Blow Dryer Brush, $80 (Save 33%)

Maybe you’ve had your eye on the Dyson AirWrap, but don’t want to spend $600 on a hair tool. The L’ange blow dry brush has 360-degree airflow to shape the best blowout at home. It smooths out frizz and straightens your hair, without taking away from volume. Plus, it shortened our drying time by 15 minutes.

Asics Women's Gel-Challenger 14 Padel Tennis Shoe, $70 (Save 18%)

We asked an intermediate pickleball player to wear these shoes during gameplay for two weeks, and she found them to be supportive, lightweight, and easy to break in. Comparing some of the best pickleball shoes on the market, the Asics shoes had an excellent grip for traction on the court and prevented foot pain by supporting the ankle during games.

Levi's Wedgie Straight Jeans, $48 (Save 40%)

Jeans are a year-round closet staple, but in the summer, a cropped pair is a solid choice, like the Levi’s Wedgie Straight Jeans. They were a popular pick when we compared the best jeans for women across a group of testers ranging in age, size, and denim preference. Our team felt the jeans were comfortable enough to wear as an everyday pant option, and the thick, durable denim made for a flattering fit.

Samsonite Winfield 2 Hardside Expandable Luggage, $200 (Save 35%)

If you’re dreaming of an extended vacation this summer, you’ll need checked luggage that expands, too. This hardside suitcase impressed us the most when we compared the best checked luggage across brands like Samsonite, Beis, and TravelPro. It has ample room for clothes, shoes, and cosmetics. Yet, despite its large size, it maneuvers with ease on its spinner wheels. Plus, it will survive baggage claim: It made it through our durability tests with no scratches or dents.

Solo Re:Define Laptop Backpack, $50 (Save 40%) 

A modern-day Mary Poppins bag! This laptop backpack shocked our team with how much we could fit inside it (despite its compact appearance). No matter how full you stuff it, the backpack distributes weight evenly, so it doesn’t feel too heavy across your shoulders. And when we compared it to other top-rated laptop backpacks for travel, it felt rather lightweight. We also really appreciated the padded straps.
