The best-selling Bosch SHPM88Z75N has been on the market since 2019, and it still wins our Best of Year award because we haven’t found another dishwasher that can beat it. Part of Bosch’s 800 series, a group that contains the best dishwashers we’ve ever tested, the SHPM88Z75N provides excellent cleaning, well-machined racks, and unbeatable drying capabilities thanks to its patented, low-energy zeolite heating method.

This versatile appliance excels at air frying, acing all of our standard tests to overtake our previous winner and become our new best air fryer. It also has nine other functions, including steaming and combination cooking that gives it the ability to cook 3-component meals—think chicken, rice, and a vegetable—simultaneious, quickly, and with delicious results. This heavy duty machine is worth the countertop space, especially if you love crispy foods and want an air fryer that can do even more. Read the full review or see all kitchen & cooking winners.

In the robot vacuum world, the iRobot Roomba j7+ sets the bar for navigation and design. When we put the j7+ to the test, we found a model that can deftly maneuver around furniture and avoid dog feces with ease thanks to forward-facing cameras and machine learning. The j7+’s excellent navigation allows it to get near-total floor coverage, keeping up with a full-sized vacuum over the course of a week. Plus, you can use the iRobot Genius app to specify what rooms or parts of rooms you want to be cleaned and when. Being so programmable and flexible makes the iRobot Roomba j7+ an indispensable tool for cleaning. Read the full review or see all laundry and cleaning winners.

Besting our tests, the UppaBaby Mesa V2 is a high-quality, easy-to-use car seat. It also happens to be one of the lightest seats on the market at just 10 pounds. It’s easy to tighten or loosen the harness as needed with just a push of a button, and the slim profile of the UppaBaby Mesa V2 keeps it from taking up too much room in the backseat of a car. The best feature of this winning car seat, however, is that it’s easy to install thanks to its retractable strap-based system. Read the full review or see all parenting winners.

A hair dryer is arguably the most important hair styling tool you can own, as it can take your strands from sopping wet to dry and sleek in a matter of minutes. At least, that’s what you can expect with the Bio Ionic GrapheneMX Professional Dryer, the best one we've tested. Depending on your hair type and desired results, its powerful airflow can dry your hair in as little as five minutes and style it in less than half an hour. It’s also comfortable to wield, thanks to intuitive buttons and a lightweight build. Read the full review or see all style, beauty & grooming winners.

The Tuft & Needle Original is a dream of a bed. It's made with two layers of foam that lack the traditional "memory" people often associate with foam mattresses. Instead it has a sensation that's best described as floating—it gently cradles your body's contours without that sinking-in feeling. This is a firm mattress, and as such could be too supportive for side sleepers (in which case we'd suggest checking out the Nectar mattress, below). The bed is ideal for back and stomach sleepers, who will find its supportive surface a welcome reprieve at the end of the day. Its construction and materials don't tend to retain as much heat as a number of other foam mattresses we've tested, making it a good choice even if you're prone to sleeping hot.

It’s been a busy year for the over-the-counter hearing aid market, but the Lexie-Bose B2 aids are the very best pair we’ve tested. Priced at $999, these assistive devices are magnitudes cheaper than other prescription products, and they don’t compromise on quality for those with mild-to-moderate conditions. In both comfort and raw sound quality, these hearing aids are worthy of the storied Bose brand and establish Lexie as a contender in this brand-new category.
