I’ve been testing fans and space heaters with my team at The Spruce for the last few years and have found great options that heat well, cool effectively, or give you clean air. While it’s hard to find one that excels at two (or all three), my picks below are impressive multitaskers, some of which I use da

After setting up the sofa, we even moved around its components (particularly the seat turned into an ottoman), which was especially useful in a household with kids, as we could create forts, add space for daytime couch naps, and fit the whole family and guests with e

Faux fur blankets do typically shed. When your blanket is fresh out of the package—and goes through its first wash cycle—you can expect there will be some level of fur loss. The amount will vary, depending on the mater

Since these small appliances are used year-round, it’s especially important to look for options that are easy to clean and maintain. "Combination fan and heaters should be routinely examined to ensure dust and debris are not clogging intake vents," says Brian Schaadt , business unit director at Lasko, a popular fan br

Each of Frontgate’s blankets is designed to look like a specific type of fur, including arctic hare, caribou, lynx, chinchilla, and silver fox. All are made with the same softness and inviting feel, and they look quite real when draped over the back of your couch or an accent chair’s arm. We tried out the coyote hue (which is no longer available) , and we were surprised at just how real it looked–both up close and from a dista

Even though it’s made of wood, it’s designed to be flexible, so you can curve it around any border or area. Similar to our best faux-stone pick, this edging comes in several pieces that connect easily toget

Like all of the blankets on our list, this one does shed. We noticed its fibers on our clothes right after we unpacked it, and it looked like it might shed significantly. However, we’re happy to report the shedding slows down with

We also love that it turns on and off automatically to match the ambient temperature in our room. While we like that you can control it with an app, we found ourselves mostly using the remote control. Our only complaint is that it takes a few seconds to toggle between settings, but this was a minor is

Portability : We picked up, carried, or wheeled the units across the room to see how comfortable they were to handle. We noted whether they had handles or an ergonomic design that made them easier to carry. We also evaluated their sturdiness and footprint s

My teammate and I recently offered up space in our own homes to test out reclining loveseats, learning their ins and outs, sitting and laying for hours on end, and even inviting our family members and guests to try t

Except for the options that are one full piece, many of the products need to be connected to each other to create no space for weeds in between. Our best decorative, the EasyFlex Adirondack No-Dig Landscape Edging , and our best faux-stone option, the Beuta Faux Stones , are two examp

Similar to our best runner-up, overall , the Dyson Purifier Hot+Cool HP07 offers the benefits of three different small appliances—a heater, fan, and air purifier—all in one sleek, space-saving appliance. We tested this unit for over six months, and we're most impressed by its triple functions, ease of use, and quiet operation, even on the highest settings. We used it almost daily and loved that it was lightweight and compact enough to bring to other rooms as nee

This edging does require a little digging (I dug down an inch or two) to get it in place, but it wasn’t hard to do at all. It’s 5 inches tall, so even if you dig a trench, it’s still a great height for keeping in a few inches of mulch. I also think the height creates a very defined garden bed, while blending in well with the rest of my landsc

The company recommends placing the stakes every 3 meters, although I placed them a little closer since I was creating a small area. That helped me curve the border and keep it in place. I plan to use this border along the bushes in front of my house and make all the borders more cohesive. This edging is very affordably priced, so you can use it for large landscaping areas all around your h

And while it feels neutral to the touch temperature-wise, as a hot sleeper, I can attest that these jersey sheets do get a bit warm throughout the night, especially in the summer. (That’s one of the main reasons I love our best overall pic
