Hands-on testing of the products going viral right now — vacuums, tools, kitchen gear, beauty, tech. We tell you what’s worth it and what to skip.

Cushionaire sandals offer solid comfort and style for everyday wear, making them a great choice for summer outings — but they may not suit everyone’s arch needs.

The Ninja Foodi Power Blender Ultimate System is a versatile, powerful kitchen tool that excels at blending and food processing, making it a great investment for home cooks.

The Nugget Ice Maker Countertop delivers soft, chewable ice quickly, making it a must-have for any home bar or summer gatherings at a reasonable price.

The Shark Clean Sense air purifier effectively cleans the air and keeps my home fresh, but its size might not fit every space comfortably.

The Shark PowerDetect Cordless vacuum is powerful and convenient, making it a solid choice for quick cleanups, but it may need improvement in battery life.

If you want a self-emptying robot vacuum that doesn't cost $800, the Shark Matrix is the one. The Matrix Clean grid pattern is real (not marketing fluff), the bagless 30-day base is a back-saver, and it's consistently $200+ less than the Roomba it's gunning for.
