May/June 2022 71BEST MONITOR
Mobile Pixels Duex
Lite $279The Duex Lite from Mobile Pixels
is a lightweight screen that you
can magnet onto the back of any
laptop to provide an additional
12-inch display. It becomes part
of the laptop to offer seamless
operation and a solution that
doesn’t take up as much space in
a pack as a standalone monitor.
You can even adjust its angle and
extend it with another screen.BEST APPLIANCE
Ninja SP301 $299This multi-functional 13-in-1 beast replaces your bulky toaster, air fryer, and convection oven and can stand
on end when not in use to maximize counter space. It’s an all-in-one appliance that swaps between baskets
and grates to sear up your meals. Reaching up to 500 degrees, the SP301 makes it easy to go from air frying
crispy mozzarella sticks to searing the outsides of your steaks. While we would love to see a built-in smart
thermometer cooking probe, this is the kind of versatile kitchen gadget that will serve you well if you like pre-
paring a wide variety of dishes with minimal hassle.BEST ROUTER
TP-Link Archer
Wi-Fi 6 $89For under $100, you can
upgrade to Wi-Fi 6, the latest
networking standard, which is
faster, more stable, and more
secure. This Archer supports
speeds up to 1.8 gigabits, which
admittedly is overkill for most
homes. But it’s nice to have
that capability at this price,
especially if you want to ensure
uninterrupted connections and
bandwidth while working from
home. On a 500-Mbps network
plan, we experienced lag-free
gaming, streaming, and control
over our smart home even with
50 devices connected.BEST POD COFFEEMAKER
Keurig K-Supreme
Plus Smart $199Control this system manually or
automate it to brew rich cups of
coffee when you wake up, return
from work, or even need to burn
the midnight oil. While you can
make use of the manufacturer
settings for a barista-like roast
from your pod, the machine’s
exclusive BrewID feature creates
a brand-specified roast to bring
out the most flavor in each cup.BEST SMART DISPLAY
Amazon Echo Show 15 $249The Show 15 is a large assistant, essentially, uniquely poised to help
in the kitchen. It not only allows for customizable widgets on a giant
screen—unlike any Show before it—displaying things like family chores,
upcoming deliveries, and recommended media to listen to or watch, but
also shows recipes step-by-step. You can add ingredients to your shop-
ping list and restock pantry staples with ease.PHOTOGRAPHY BY ADAM HOFF
