We reviewed hundreds of products this year — these 15 are actually worth buying

You can feel the difference when you're using an electric toothbrush versus a regular one. We've dubbed this one the "Ferrari of toothbrushes." Thanks to its four brush modes, you can set it for sensitivity, deep cleaning, gum massage and even whitening. It has a built-in 30-second timer and a two-minute auto shutoff to help you develop a better brushing routine. You get eight brush heads — each one should last you about three months, so eight should last you just over two years! No more shelling out piles of cash for replacement heads.

"My teeth have never felt so clean! I have used an electric toothbrush my whole life, and this is by far the best!" wrote one convert. "I usually buy Philips Sonicare, but I wanted something a little less expensive. I was nervous at first, but the quality of this product is incredible! Very powerful motor and plenty of replacement heads. The matte black finish looks very sleek and modern."

Proof that it won't cost you a mint to strengthen your locks with super-healthy rosemary.  

Meet our Senior Beauty Editor's pick for the best anti-wrinkle serum on a budget. She's not alone: five-star reviewers call it a "Botox alternative" — the serum is so popular it frequently sells out in the U.S. 

The formula contains a heavy-duty mix of peptides, which have been clinically proven to help with cell turnover and building new collagen. The serum includes hyaluronic acid, a natural humectant which is especially good for dehydrated mature skin. 

You probably know the brand CosRx for its Snail Mucin Essence. However, Yahoo named its Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Cream one of the best anti-aging skin care products of 2024. It offers a punch of hydration, plumps up skin, reduces the appearance of fine lines and helps reduce any "crepey" appearance. 

"I love this moisturizer for its lightweight, fast-absorbing formula and antioxidant ingredients. The texture is perfectly rich without being too heavy and the product itself absorbs fast," writer Marie Lodi says. "Bonus points: In addition to hyaluronic acid, this cream contains vitamin tree water (also known as sea buckthorn), which is filled with vitamins, amino acids and fatty acids that help strengthen the skin barrier and increase hydration even more. The midrange price point is the cherry on top."

Over-the-ear headphones are a fashion statement of sorts. Soundcore makes some of the most aesthetically pleasing ones on the market, but their quality rivals more trendy headphones (the AirPods Max and Sonos Ace, to name a couple) at a fraction of the cost. They made our list of the best wireless noise-cancelling headphones, with our Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida writing that they "sound perfectly good to my ears" and the "noise-cancelling exceeded my expectations given the price point." 

Topping our list for the best air fryers is this versatile model, which boasts substantial cooking room, requires minimal maintenance and is easy to use, all while looking sleek. It comes pre-assembled, so there's no setup required, and the accompanying instructions are intuitive.

A bright LED interface displays five functions — air fry, roast, bake, broil, and warm — plus five presets. We assessed the air fry function by making french fries, breaded chicken tenders, chicken wings and crab rangoons, using package instructions and the "frozen" preset where there were none. Everything came out right on time and was juicy on the outside and crispy on the inside.

Amazon's No. 1 bestselling electric grill can turn a basic patio into a charming burger bistro — just plug in the cord and you’re good to go. It offers 320 square inches of cooking space (enough for 12 patties) and is designed with infrared technology that helps to evenly distribute heat while preventing flare-ups. According to fans (it has over 1,800 on Amazon alone), the porcelain-coated cooking grates stand up to rust and other signs of wear. Also in graphite and black.

This crowd-pleaser, our overall best checked luggage, sports 360-degree spinner wheels and side-mounted TSA locks, and it comes in a variety of snazzy colors (Burnt Orange! Caribbean Blue!) that'll make it stand out on the luggage carousel ... which will save you time. 

And don't fret about your gorgeous new suitcase getting dinged up — shoppers confirm that it'll endure even the most rough-and-tumble international treks. "It holds a lot and rolls very well. I've taken it on six flights so far (filled it up to 48 pounds!) and it has held up great … no damage, no issues," wrote one five-star reviewer.

If you're aiming to downplay your cup size, this affordable, full-coverage option from Vanity Fair may be just what you’re looking for, and it's our best minimizer bra of the year. (It's also a pick on our overall best bras list!) It can minimize your bustline by up to 1.5 inches. Along with a built-in underwire, it has non-padded cups that comfortably cover and support your breasts. Did we mention it's 50% off?

"Depending on the bra style and if you need a larger cup size, you might look for side panels or a wide back band and straps," said Elisabeth Dale, author of The Bra Zone and founder of The Breast Life. "These details are more critical in bras for people with fuller busts (anything over a DD)." This bra delivers, with extra side and back bands made from a four-way stretch material that smooths bumps and bulges. 

This baby leads our list of best cordless stick vacuums for its solid performance, sleek appearance and competitive price.

Now $100 off, the Tineco Pure One S11 features a narrow brush head that swivels like a dream. It has headlights for seeing under low furniture and in darker spaces. At 7 pounds, it's lightweight and, as several eavesdroppers noted during our testing, incredibly quiet — enough that it probably wouldn't wake a sleeping baby.
