Diet-to-Go Meal Plan Review: Simple, Healthy, Maybe Soggy

The food falls into the broad category of “better than expected.” Maybe Diet-to-Go’s jambalaya would not have been recognizable to Paul Prudhomme as his home cuisine. But it was tasty enough nonetheless: meaty and stewy with tomatoes, earthily spicy without too much bite except from a peppery andouille. The plentifulContinue Reading

Traeger Woodridge Pro Review: Fearless Smoking

I also wanted to call out one oddity I noticed in testing, which is that dogs seem very attracted to the big knob on the Woodridge’s control panel. Three different dogs who came over to my house during smoking sessions pressed it with their noses, probably due to the combinationContinue Reading

Wahl Peanut Li Review: A Cordless Take on a Classic

This was borne out by the evidence when testing each trimmer on a horsehair broom, to approximate how each Peanut would fare with the thickest of beards. The old-school corded Peanut can clog a bit if you try to run it through a horsehair broom, or the human equivalent. ButContinue Reading

Dinnerly Meal Kit Review: Hearty Meals on a Budget

“This is a real Midwestern meal,” my father said, digging into a plate I’d prepared from the Martha Stewart–endorsed Dinnerly meal kit. “Meat. Potatoes. Green beans.” This, for my father, was high praise. It was the type of meal he’d grown up with as a child in Nebraska: hearty, no-nonsense,Continue Reading

Razer Blade 16 (2025) Review: Slim yet Powerful

The keyboard has gotten a few noteworthy changes. The keys have a 1.5 mm travel distance, giving them a tactile and mechanical feel. The actuation feels heavy, though I like the precision it adds. Razer has also added five macro keys on the right underneath the power button and “dual-LED”Continue Reading

Light Phone III Review: The Anti-Smartphone

The bottom grille is the stereo speaker, and the audio is surprisingly good—it can get decently loud! I had to relearn how to download music again, but once I did, I uploaded a few albums, like GNX, through the Light Phone’s web dashboard on my PC. (The phone has 128 GB ofContinue Reading

Vizio All-in-One Soundbar (SV210D-0806) Review: Cheap Thrill

The AIO does support decoding for both Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, along with DTS Virtual:X, designed to create a sense of expansion for even stereo soundtracks via digital signal processing (DSP). Any virtualized 3D effects were minimal at best in my testing, but even baseline support for the two primaryContinue Reading

Manta Sound Sleep Mask Review: A Must-Have for Insomnia

The Bluetooth headphones, too, are nothing to sneeze at. They’re easy to pair with your phone and while they don’t have mind-blowing quality or active noise cancellation, they do get loud enough to drown out any environment. There are 30 steps of volume control, so you can dial in theContinue Reading
