This is one of our favorite air purifiers for small spaces. It’s easy to set up, simple to use, and small enough to place almost anywhere in your home. The built-in light changes color depending on the air quality detected in your space, and it can act as a warm-colored night light. Best of all, the filters last a full year before needing replacement.
EltaMD is having a sitewide 20% off sale, which means it’s a great time to stock up on sunscreen before the summer heat arrives. This face sunscreen for sensitive skin is a favorite among dermatologists and staffers like NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio, who uses it on her rosacea-prone skin. It’s free of heavy moisturizers that can clog pores, and protects against UVA and UVB sun rays. Pair it with a body sunscreen like the EltaMD UV Sport SPF, and you’re ready for beach day.
Almost everyone on team NBC Select owns or has gifted a JBL Clip. It’s one of the best portable bluetooth speakers you can buy, and it’s matching the lowest price we’ve seen. It has a built-in carabiner you can use to attach it to almost anything — we’ve clipped it to backpacks, belt loops, bikes, shower curtain rods, kitchen cabinets, the list goes on. It is IP67 dust and waterproof, and gets up to 12 hours of battery life. You can learn more in our JBL Clip 5 review.
With summer right around the corner, it might be time to swap to hot-weather bed sheets, and these NBC Select Bed & Bath Award winners feel cool and comfortable, even for a hot sleeper like NBC Select reporter Zoe Malin. They are made from 100% long-staple cotton and come in sizes ranging from twin to California King. The set includes a top sheet, a fitted sheet and two pillowcases.
Levoit is better known for its air purifiers, but this cordless vacuum checks a lot of boxes while costing less than $150. It’s lightweight at 3.2 pounds, easy to convert into a smaller handheld vac, and has headlights on the main cleaning brush to better see dust and debris. Plus, it has up to 50 minutes of run time, longer than most of the competition at this price.
If I get a bad night’s sleep, I know it’s not because of this mattress. I’ve used it for about two years, and as someone who never had a hybrid mattress, I love how firm, plush, supportive and quiet it is. It has six distinct layers, including a breathable top foam layer and supportive wrapped spring layer towards the bottom. If you purchase the mattress through Leesa’s website, you also get two pillows and a sheet set included at no additional cost.
If you have an iPhone, these are the earbuds to get, especially at this sub-$200 price. We use them for everything: commuting, working out, relaxing, traveling, you name it, AirPods can handle it. They have great sound quality, excellent noise cancelling and transparency modes and are small enough to fit in almost any pocket. The earbuds get up to six hours of battery life alone and up to 30 hours with the charging case.
This is the best running watch for beginners looking to sign up for their first race or build a consistent running routine, and it’s matching the lowest price we’ve seen. It has many fitness and training features I love like daily exercise recommendations, race coaching plans and an energy score that changes throughout the day. Plus, it has excellent battery life — I averaged 10 days before needing to charge it. You can learn more in my Garmin Forerunner 165 review.
