As shopping editors, we do the heavy lifting of testing, trying, and occasionally side-eyeing an endless stream of products that come across our desks (and doorsteps). Some are forgettable. Some are fine. And then there are the ones that earn a permanent spot in our lives — and our group chats.
If you loved what we shared in May, get ready: June’s lineup is full of those can’t-stop-raving-about-it finds. From powerful pellet grills to portable fans, these are the products we loved enough to give our stamp of approval.
So if you’re looking for an excuse to treat yourself, upgrade your summer setup, or just see what we’re all obsessed with right now, welcome. These are the June picks we’d text you about if we could.
Away Commuter Backpack

The Away Commuter Backpack is my reliable sidekick for work and travel. It fits everything I need — laptop, chargers, snacks, and even a change of shoes — without ever feeling bulky. The thoughtful compartments keep me organized, and the trolley sleeve makes airport hustle easy. It’s the one bag that’s as ready for a busy day at the office as it is for a getaway. – K.A.L.
Pair of Thieves Supercool Boxers 2-Pack

Buy Now on pair of thieves
As heat waves sweep the U.S., we’re all trying anything and everything to stay cool. One way to chill out is to invest in some great cooling underwear, like these SuperCool boxer briefs. With vent zones, moisture-wicking fabric, and anti-odor tech, they promise to “cool your jewels” through hot weather or intense exercise. Customers are very impressed, giving the boxers a 4.8/5-star rating with more than 680 reviews. “I’ve always loved Pair of Thieves, but the new SuperCool are my new favorites. Perfect for working out, lounging around, a hot day, sleeping, or just working,” says one reviewer. “They are exceptionally cool (both in feel and look), cost less than most other high-end brands, are made to last, and are just plain great.” – O.H.
Pop Mart Labubu Blind Box
$92.06
Buy Now On Amazon
These toothy little monsters are everywhere you look — from your TikTok feed to the stylish New Yorker sitting next to you on the train. Naturally, we decided to hop on the trend. Labubu dolls are currently sold out on almost all online sites (we’ve even heard rumors of people using them as currency). However, you can find resale dolls on Amazon for less than $100. Add one to your work bag (mine fits perfectly on my Longchamp) or your going-out purse, or even attach it to your keychain. Either way, people will take notice. – A.M.R.
Tunise Portable Neck Fan
$33.99
Buy Now On Amazon
I cringed when I first saw a guy wearing this portable neck fan at Stagecoach over the spring, but now that we’re in the middle of a full-blown summer heatwave, I’m starting to think he had the right idea. This wearable fan wraps around your neck like a pair of headphones, and features (almost) 360-degree cooling (it thankfully doesn’t block or cover your mouth). With three different fan speeds, you can adjust the breeze that’s coming your way. Amazon says the battery-powered fan lasts up to 12 hours on a single charge; in my experience, it’s been closer to 8. Still, that’s more than enough to take you through a day at an outdoor music festival or beach hang. The neck fan fully charges after three hours of being plugged in. You may still get a few looks from wearing this around town, but trust me, they’ll be looks of envy as you stay cool and comfortable while everyone else is sweating it out. – T.C.
Scosche Scovac 4-in-1
$74.99

I won’t road trip without my Scosche Scovac. It’s handled everything from vacuuming up crushed Goldfish to inflating (and deflating!) our toddler’s travel mattress in a hotel room at midnight. It’s compact, powerful, and oddly satisfying to use. It’s one of those parenting hacks I didn’t know I needed… until I really, really did. – K.A.L.

When the temperature spikes to levels that feel offensive (seriously, have you stepped outside lately?), the only thing that I reach for is a cotton maxi dress. This one from Abercrombie & Fitch features an empire waist — that’s universally flattering — criss-cross back straps that help circulate air, and three cute color combinations, including this buttery yellow, which, if you haven’t heard, is the ‘it’ color of the season. I own all three (don’t judge me), and I keep them on rotation for everything: vacations, weekend outings, and occasionally even the office, with a cami underneath. – A.M.R.

Totem aims to solve the problem of losing friends at music festivals. And we think they pulled it off. The clever devices sync up using GPS, allowing you to find your fellow festival-goers (even when phone service stops working) using the device’s light-up compass. The device is well-designed and easy to use, and the brand will continue rolling out updates to improve its performance. – O.H.

$1,399.99
Buy Now on klipsch
I recently reviewed these Klipsch The Sevens for a roundup of the best bookshelf speakers, and they earned the top spot (as well as a permanent place in my apartment). They’re ridiculously cool-looking, oozing mid-century style, but they also sound incredible and offer a huge variety of connectivity options. The powerful bass is star — no need for a separate subwoofer — but it remains clear among mids and treble, even at very loud volumes. – O.H.

The revered knife-maker released a version of its signature No. 8 knife featuring engravings inspired by America’s National Parks, including the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, and Great Smoky Mountains.

Summer BBQ season is in full swing, and if you’re still flipping burgers on that sad little charcoal setup from ten years ago, it’s time for an upgrade. The Traeger Woodridge Pro Pellet Grill, which is currently more than 10% off, has changed the way I grill. This thing does it all. With multiple cooking modes, you can nail everything from ribeye to rainbow trout with ease. It’s compact enough to fit most patios, decks, or even a generous apartment balcony, and it comes with a connected app that acts like your own sous-chef. I took it for a spin, and it delivered pro-level smoke that even impressed my pickiest BBQ critic. It’s designed for beginners, pros, and everyone in between, with a simple learning curve that enables you to achieve expert-level status in no time. Traeger isn’t just editor-approved — it’s also celeb-approved (hi, Drew Brees) and beloved by BBQ aficionados who actually know what the hell they’re doing. So snag this grill while it’s on sale, and give your summer menu the smoky, delicious upgrade it deserves. – A.M.R.
