Weber is best known for its iconic kettle charcoal grill, but this flat-top grill is worth a serious look. It earns a spot near the top of our ratings for its even heating and broad temperature range. It’s definitely a step up from the lower-priced Blackstone—it features three burners instead of two, a second side shelf, and a lid. It also has some stainless steel accents. While the Blackstone is a great option for no-frills cooking or for a camping trip, the Weber is probably the model you’d want to display on your deck.

The Coleman RoadTrip 285 has everything you need (sans propane) for an all-in-one grilling experience,, no matter where you are. Even better, it’s $60 less than its Memorial Day price. This toteable gas grill’s integrated stand folds up like an ironing board with wheels, so you can roll it to your ideal cooking location with ease. There are also collapsible side tables to keep tools and condiments within reach. All these factors add to its unbeatable convenience. As for grill performance, it heats evenly enough in CR tests for a competent cooking experience, and with three burners (20,000 BTU overall), you can dial in the perfect temperature with more than acceptable accuracy.

The Kamado Joe Classic is on sale for the first time in well over a year, and Amazon and Ace Hardware both dropped their prices by over $100, making this an opportune time to hit that buy button. It’s our top-rated ceramic kamado and comes packed with features, including a few that make it a stellar smoker. It has an elevated rack and comes with a heat deflector for smoking meats, both of which allow you to easily slow-cook, say, a brisket, without drying it out. It also has adjustable dampers and a locking lid, which help control the flow of air so that you can maintain a low and slow smoke for hours on end. It excelled at slow-cooking a pork shoulder in our tests, as well as at cooking a thin-crust pizza over high heat, helping it earn a rating of Excellent for cooking performance.

This high-end midsized Fuego F27S grill hits almost every mark. It rates very good at producing even heat, preheating quickly, offering a wide range of high and low temperatures, and creating indirect heat. It’s less likely than many other models to flare up. Notable features include recessed folding shelves and burners with a long warranty. (They’re the parts that are replaced the most.) An unimpressive rating for convenience is one of its few blemishes.

This CR Recommended sunscreen is above average for UVA protection and SPF, and it’s water-resistant for up to 80 minutes. Just note that with spray sunscreens, it can be harder to know if you’re getting even coverage, so CR suggests spraying the sunscreen into your hands and then applying it to your body to help ensure better coverage.

This Eucerin Advanced Hydration SPF 50 spray is a solid performer with broad-spectrum protection. Its tested SPF comes close to its labeled SPF 50. Like the sunscreen above, it also has that plastic fragrance-free aroma, and it left a slightly draggy film on testers’ skin.

This Neutrogena spray is very good in overall performance across the board, with excellent UVA protection and very good protection from sunburn-producing rays. It does not meet its labeled SPF 50 in CR’s tests, but the protection is still adequate. It has a moderately strong tropical, fruity aroma and leaves a slightly greasy film and a notable sheen on the skin.

The LG LHSXS2706S is $50 less than its previous best price. It is a sleek, 36-inch-wide side-by-side with plenty of convenient features, including a through-the-door water/ice dispenser, a built-in water filter, a second icemaker that creates round ice cubes for cocktails (LG calls it Craft Ice), spillproof shelves, and WiFi connectivity to adjust fridge settings from your phone. In our lab tests, it receives excellent scores for thermostat performance and noise output, and very good scores for temperature uniformity, energy efficiency, and ease of use. However, the refrigerator receives a subpar score for icemaker performance and a poor score for crisper drawer performance. LG side-by-sides also receive decent scores for predicted reliability and owner satisfaction in our latest member surveys.

The LG LT18S2100W delivers strong performance all around, and given its price, it’s also a solid bargain—and the price at Lowe’s is the best we’ve ever seen by $20. This refrigerator, 28 inches wide, garners stellar ratings for energy efficiency and thermostat control, and it’s also a great performer when it comes to temperature uniformity and noise output, making it one of the quieter top-freezers we’ve tested. But this model receives our lowest rating for ease of use. In surveys of our members, LG top-freezers got a top-notch rating for predicted reliability and a middling score for owner satisfaction.

The 30-inch-wide Midea MRF18B4AST receives a high score for thermostat performance in our tests, meaning it can hit the desired temperature and hold that temperature consistently. It also runs quietly and efficiently and keeps temperatures consistent, earning very good noise, energy-efficiency, and temperature uniformity ratings. However, it receives subpar scores for ease of use and crisper drawer performance. This model doesn’t come with a lot of features—no icemaker, built-in water filter, or spillproof shelves—but those omissions make this model one of the most budget-friendly French-door models in our ratings. 

One of the most budget-friendly top-load agitators in our tests, the LG WT7005CW is $20 less than it was during the last big sale. This eco-friendly Green Choice washer isn’t the gentlest on clothes, but it conserves energy and water. It’s among the quietest models in our tests and causes little to no vibration, meaning it won’t disturb you with rumbling. The cycle time is 70 minutes using the normal-wash, heavy-soil setting. Shorten it by using the normal-soil setting when you can.

The LG WM3400CW is already quite inexpensive even when it’s not discounted, so this is a great deal. Especially given the quality of its performance, it’s a smart buy as well as an environmentally friendly choice. You still get exceptional washing performance along with water and energy efficiency. But this model isn’t particularly gentle on fabric, so you might want to try the delicate cycle for your best threads. This washer’s claimed capacity is 4.5 cubic feet, and its cycle time is 105 minutes.

The top-rated LG DLE3400W is $80 more than its best price. We expect it to perform similarly to the CR-tested LG DLEX3700W (now discontinued). The tested model delivers solid performance across the board, nabbing an ace rating for noise and ratings near the top in our drying and convenience tests. This stackable Energy Star certified machine, with a claimed capacity of 7.4 cubic feet, is equipped with a moisture sensor, an extended tumble, custom programs, and an end-of-cycle signal, offering all these features at a fairly low price.

The high-performing LG Signature DLEX9900S is pricier than other LG electric dryers, but it comes with numerous extras that make laundry day easier. First, its 9-cubic-foot drum (the largest in our ratings) can handle any family-sized load. It features extras like a moisture sensor, a steam option, extended tumble, and WiFi connectivity. But what sets this dryer apart is AI-sensing technology that optimizes drying times, and a TurboSteam cycle that refreshes clothes and combats odors. Aside from its 56-minute cycle time, its de-wrinkle option can tumble clothes for up to 3 hours after the cycle ends. You can also operate the machine remotely via its ThinQ app. One thing it lacks, however, is a duct blockage indicator, so it’s essential to keep close tabs on duct maintenance.

The budget-friendly LG LDFC2423V is still at its Memorial Day price. It gets dinged in our member surveys for its middling reliability and satisfaction scores, but it has a lot going for it, starting with its stellar washing performance. It’s also considerably less expensive than the Bosch models that dominate this category. This model is also fairly quiet when running and has some of the design perks that make life a lot easier, like a soil sensor, an adjustable upper rack, adjustable tines, and a time-remaining display. That said, its drying performance is just okay.

The Whirlpool WDTA50SAKZ dishwasher is already one of the best options under $1,000, and it’s at its lowest price right now. It’s a strong performer, with a third rack and an upscale look for the price, including integrated controls. Whirlpool also earned a very good rating for predicted reliability and a midlevel score for owner satisfaction based on data from our reader surveys. It’s similar to lower-end models from the KitchenAid brand, which is also owned by Whirlpool.

The Bosch 800 Series SHX78CM5N has many of the same features as the company’s Benchmark model, including an adjustable upper rack, a third rack, a stainless steel interior, adjustable tines, a motorized spray arm, and WiFi capability. This model also performs similarly, scoring very well in both our washing and drying tests while being about as quiet as the Benchmark model. What it lacks are the subtle upgrades that give the Benchmark a better ease-of-use score. The front of the dishwasher doesn’t have interior lighting, and there’s no built-in water softener or time-remaining indicator. Its third rack has less room and is less flexible than the Benchmark’s. 

At 14 pounds, the Baby Jogger City Tour 2 is a compact and lightweight stroller that’s easy to carry but is still maneuverable, responsive, and safe. It’s a great option for travel. It has easy one-hand folding, and its folded size is extra-small, though it doesn’t stand when folded. One-touch brakes are a plus, though it lacks an adjustable handle.

The Chicco Bravo Trio Travel System is our Value Pick for Travel Systems and includes the top-rated Chicco KeyFit infant car seat. The carrier weighs just 9 pounds, and the child car seat can accommodate infants from 4 to 30 pounds. Paired with the Bravo stroller, you get one set that can see you through different stages with your child, from newborn to preschool age. The stroller features easy harness adjustment, plus a grab bar for your kiddo, along with a large storage basket and a small parent console with a cup holder and a lidded compartment. It also features one-touch brakes and an easy, self-standing fold.

The Eufy Indoor Cam E30 delivers a rich suite of features, including a 4K resolution camera that earns very good scores in our tests. It supports color night vision with an integrated spotlight for improved clarity. Its above-average score for smart features stems from a solid set of AI capabilities, including people, pet, and sound detection, as well as automated panning and tilting motors that allow the E30 to track subjects throughout the scene. You can sound a siren and engage in two-way audio communication. Like most Eufy home security cameras, you can view live footage and store clips using a microSD card for no additional charge, connect it to a Eufy HomeBase S380 hub for storage on a hard drive, or pay for optional cloud storage. It’s compatible with Amazon Alexa, Apple Home, and Google Home.

The TP-Link Tapo C120 is an affordable outdoor security camera that offers impeccable performance for its price. It also offers a ton of features and doesn’t require a subscription to take advantage of them. Those features include activity zones, AI alerts (for people, pets, and vehicles), color night vision, two-way audio, built-in spotlights, and local video storage using up to a 512GB microSD card (not included).

The TP-Link Tapo C225 offers a lot of value for its price. It’s a motorized pan-and-tilt camera with local video storage on a microSD card (not included) and a laundry list of features: person detection, pet detection, sound detection (for crying babies, glass breaking, dogs barking, cats meowing), color night vision, activity zones, motion tracking where the camera moves to follow the subject it’s recording, a privacy mode that covers the camera, a built-in siren, and voice and app control via Amazon Alexa, Apple Home, and Google Home. It even supports Apple’s HomeKit Secure Video system, so you can store footage with end-to-end encryption in iCloud.

Are you still with me? In our tests, this wired TP-Link camera receives high scores for video quality and response time, as well as strong scores for data security and smart features. Its only drawback is its lackluster data privacy, but that’s quite common with security cameras. This camera is on sale for about 25 percent off its usual list price.

The Arlo Pro 3 Floodlight Camera can run off either a rechargeable battery or plug-in power cord, sold separately for $50, which connects to the bottom of the camera and can run up to 25 feet to connect to an outlet. It performs quite well in our lab tests, includes a siren, and offers voice/app control with all four major platforms: Amazon Alexa, Apple Home (with an Arlo Pro Smart Hub, sold separately), Google Home, and Samsung SmartThings. Additional features, such as activity zones, person detection, and cloud video storage, require an Arlo Secure subscription.

This was $40 less during Prime Day, but it’s still a nice discount.

This GE dehumidifier is at a great price right now, especially considering that it is meant for dehumidifying large spaces. It’s super quiet and very energy-efficient, earning strong marks in our tests for those factors.

One downside: this model received low marks for convenience, which means its small tank needs emptying more often than other models.

If you’re looking for a medium-capacity dehumidifier, the GE ADSE35WWT could be a perfect fit, especially at this low price. It’s very quiet and energy-efficient while removing water from the air, and its humidstat accuracy is excellent. You might have to empty the tank a little more often than other top-rated models, and there’s no built-in cord storage, but this is a solid option.

The snazzy Café CVM721M2NS5 has a recessed handle and hidden digital controls that run along the bottom. When you tap on the glass touchscreen, the options for time and cooking modes pop into view. In addition to looking good, it cooks well, earning an excellent rating in our heating evenness test. It’s also first-rate at defrosting, and it operates quietly. A sensor prevents you from overheating your food. In our member surveys, Café over-the-range microwaves earned middling scores for predicted reliability and owner satisfaction.

This pump spray from Repel is not only the best deet-free repellent in our ratings but also one of the best-performing of all of our tested repellents. With 30 percent oil of lemon eucalyptus as its active ingredient, it offers excellent protection against mosquitoes and ticks. Plus, CR’s testers found that, unlike many insect repellents, this product tends not to damage fabrics or other materials.

Protecting yourself from the elements is just as important as anything else when it comes to caring for your lawn or garden. “For people who live in areas where black-legged ticks [the ones that cause Lyme disease] are common, it’s super-important to use insect repellent whenever you’re doing yardwork,” says Catherine Roberts, a CR senior health editor who has reported extensively on identifying common tick species and protecting ourselves against them. 

This 30 percent deet insect repellent from Off is one of the top-performing aerosol spray options from CR’s tests. It offers excellent protection against mosquitoes and ticks. It does tend to damage fabrics and other materials, however, so apply with care.
