8-Qt Ninja DualZone 6-in-1 Air Fryer
An 8-quart air fryer with two separate 4-quart baskets, for families who want the main and the side ready at the same time.
$129.99Shop on AmazonLowest price we've postedPrice as ofNinja's DualZone splits 8 quarts of capacity into two baskets, each with its own heater and fan, so you can air fry chicken in one and roast vegetables in the other at different settings. Smart Finish staggers the start times so both baskets finish together. Ninja says it holds up to 4 lbs of fries or wings and suits meals for 6 to 8 people, and it has six programs, including air fry, roast, bake, reheat and dehydrate.
It suits a household that cooks two things at once most nights. One or two people who mostly reheat leftovers will find a single-basket model smaller and simpler. Ninja's 10-quart DualZone is the step up if you cook for a bigger group.
Worth knowing It is wide: two baskets side by side take up more counter than a single-basket fryer. Each basket is 4 quarts, so anything that needs one large basket, like a big roast, is a squeeze.

DeWALT's compact drill and impact driver kit, a starting point for anyone setting up a first cordless tool set.
$129.00Shop on AmazonPrice as ofThis is the DCK240C2 kit: the DCD771 1/2-inch drill/driver with two speeds (0-450 and 0-1,500 RPM), the DCF885 1/4-inch impact driver, two 20V MAX batteries, a charger and a contractor bag. The impact driver is 5.55 inches front to back and 2.8 lbs, which DeWALT pitches for tight spots.
It suits homeowners and renters who hang shelves, assemble furniture and drive the odd deck screw. Because the batteries fit every DeWALT 20V MAX tool, it is also a way into that system. People who drill into masonry or work all day should look at DeWALT's brushless kits, such as the ATOMIC DCK225D2, or a kit with a hammer drill.
Worth knowing The included batteries are the small compact size, so long jobs mean swapping and recharging. A larger 20V MAX battery is the usual first add-on.

Philips Hue Starter Kit w/ Bridge Pro, 3x A19 E26 Smart Bulbs & Tap Dial Switch (White & Color Ambiance)
Three Hue color bulbs, a Tap Dial switch and the newer Bridge Pro hub, for someone starting a Philips Hue setup from scratch.
$149.99Shop on AmazonPrice as ofThe kit has three A19 E26 White and Color Ambiance bulbs (1,100 lumens each, about a 75W equivalent), a Tap Dial switch with five buttons that can sit on a table or go on the wall, and the Hue Bridge Pro. The Bridge Pro handles 150+ lights and 50+ accessories, and Philips says its newer chip adds MotionAware, which uses the lights themselves as motion sensors, plus Hue Sync surround lighting and security features.
It suits someone who wants several rooms of smart lighting and expects to grow the system. If you only want one or two smart lamps, a full bridge kit is more than you need.
Worth knowing Voice assistants and Matter run through the bridge rather than the bulbs. The Hue app needs iOS 17 or Android 12 or later.
