LG CordZero Stick Vac
We've tested all the top cordless and stick vacs on the market, and so far the $599 Dyson V8 is the only model we’d replace a full-size vacuum with.
However, there may be a new contender: The LG CordZero, which debuted at CES, has a sleeker design than the Dyson, two batteries, and 40 minutes of runtime. Its release date and price are unclear, but if it costs less than the Dyson, I'd recommend getting one.
Lenovo Smart Assistant
All her other skills aside, one of the coolest things about Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant is hearing a song fill the house as soon as you ask her to play it. Unfortunately, that song only sounds as good as the speaker Alexa lives inside or is connected to.
That’s why I’m excited to try out the upgraded Lenovo Smart Assistant—an Alexa clone with upgraded sound from a well-known brand. When it goes on sale in May, I'd recommend the $179 version, with a Harmon/Kardon speaker, but even the $129 model can control your smart home and sound good doing it.
Nikon D5600 Camera
One of the worst parts of taking photos at an event like CES is having to get two photos at once: one on your DSLR so you have a good shot, and one on your phone for sharing on social media. Nikon’s newest camera lets you skip that shuffle. It sends smaller versions of the photos you take on the D5600 straight to your phone, so you can share them easily on Facebook and Instagram without maxing out your phone’s storage.
Anova Nano Sous Vide Cooker
Sous vide cooking is all the rage—and not just for foodies. Sealing food in a bag and cooking it at a low temperature over a long period of time leads to tender meals that are ready whenever you are.
Anova, one of the leading names in sous vide, is coming out with a $99 version of its popular cooker this summer. It won’t have Wi-Fi connectivity and it won’t be as powerful as some other models out there—but it’s a great, affordable introduction to an innovative way of cooking that’s growing in popularity.
