Most all-purpose juicers fall into one of two types. Centrifugal juicers or masticating slow juicers that are also known as “cold press.” A centrifugal juicer offers speed and a lot of power. In essence, it operates a bit like a blender with an added mesh screen to separate juice from …

More Meal Kits We Liked Dinnerly ($6 to $9 per serving): Marley Spoon’s lower-cost meal kit, Dinnerly (7/10, WIRED Recommends) was long WIRED’s budget pick. Frankly, it’s still a good budget pick. It’s also a stolidly meat-and-potatoes pick, and often straightforwardly Midwestern in its recipes. The proteins are generous and …

Some automatic espresso machines incorporate a container of milk that has to be brought back and forth from the refrigerator, like the ones from this list.

The Rivelia has a nifty little bean swap system that lets you uncork one hopper full of beans and swap in a second, with minimal fuss and no mixing of beans. It works like this: When you turn the bean hopper to the unlock position, the Rivelia’s screen will simply …

From tinned fish to baked goodies, you can deliver the best-tasting treats to their door—even if you don’t live close by.

Even though I’ve spent the better part of my life living in humid New York City, I never owned a dehumidifier. I never had a basement, and I was ignorant of the benefits of a portable dehumidifier. I’ve been lucky in that I haven’t had or at least known about …
