    Better Than Store-Bought: The Best Gear for Homemade Popsicles, Slushies, and Ice Cream

    It’s officially summer, and prime time for ice cream, ice pops, slushies, and more. Making frozen treats at home lets you customize flavors and accommodate dietary restrictions, and having the right tools on hand can help make the process more fun.    Wirecutter senior kitchen editor Marilyn Ong walks us through the most reliable gear for every type of frozen treat, from $10 ice pop molds to an $800 gelato maker. Plus, she reveals Wirecutter’s take on popular gadgets like the Ninja Creami, Ninja Slushi, and KitchenAid shaved ice attachment.    We also hear from Wirecutter experts Lesley Stockton, Ciara Murray Jordan, and Kathleen Squires, who share their favorite treat recipes and tips for making great frozen treats.   This episode covers: Why DIY treats are worth making: You won’t necessarily save money on ingredients, but you will have total control over those ingredients. You can control the sugar content, dairy options, and flavor combinations. Popsicle molds that actually work: Our favorite ice pop molds are easy to fill and release with little effort. You can choose from kid-friendly shapes (think fun animal shapes) all the way to refined classic molds fit for adults. Shaved ice and slushie makers we like: The KitchenAid shaved ice attachment is a powerhouse for making Bingsu (a popular Korean-style shaved ice), while our kitchen team was surprised by how much they like the Ninja Slushi for making frozen drinks at home. Why we don't recommend the Ninja Creami: Despite its viral popularity for making healthier frozen treats, in our testing it resulted in burning smells and complaints of plastic shavings. Choosing an ice cream maker: Start by asking yourself how much you’re willing to spend and the texture you want to create. Our recommendations range from a $60 option that makes denser scoops, to an $800 machine that makes smooth, airy gelato.   Products we recommend:  Traditional, easy-to-make pops: Tovolo Classic Pop Molds with Tray A colorful spin on the classic: Williams Sonoma Rainbow Pop Molds Best metal pop molds: Ecozoi Stainless Steel Popsicle Molds Lie-flat molds in cute shapes:  Zoku Cat and Dog Ice Pop Mold Cute penguins in silicone molds: Tovolo Penguin Pop Molds Best push-pop style molds: Chef’n Sweet Spot Ice Pop Maker Easy to tuck in a crowded freezer: Tovolo Classic Stackable Pop Molds For sweet treats, cocktails, and more: KitchenAid Shave Ice Attachment An at-home frozen drink maker:  Ninja Slushi The best ice cream maker: Cuisinart ICE-21P1 A great compressor model for lighter-texture ice cream: Whynter ICM-201SB A great compressor model for denser ice cream: Whynter ICM-15LS The best of the best ice cream maker: Lello 4080 Musso Lussino An inexpensive slushie cup: Frozen Magic Squeezie Cup A higher-end slushie cup ZOKU Original Slush and Shake Maker Marilyn loves: Bissell Little Green   Additional reading: The Best Popsicle Molds The 4 Best KitchenAid Attachments of 2026 We Tested the Ninja Creami.

  2. Are Robot Mops Actually Good?

    6d ago

    Are Robot Mops Actually Good?

    The iconic robot vacuum—the autonomous bot that can roam your home sucking up pet hair and Cheerios–is evolving. Manufacturers are shifting almost entirely to combo robot vac-mops. The question, for our vacuum tester, is whether they’re any good and if they’re worth the very steep prices (upwards of $1,600 for top-of-the-line models).   Wirecutter writer Evan Dent joins us to explain how the new vac-mops handle everyday messes, the homes they’re best suited for, and what you should know about storing and repairing them.   If you’re looking for a deal on a robot vac or vac-mop combo, he also shares the prices to watch for during Amazon’s upcoming Prime Day sale (or any deals event).    This episode covers: Why robot vacuums are disappearing: Basic robot vacuums have reached a profit ceiling, so manufacturers are phasing them out. Instead, they can charge a premium for the added features of vac-mops. These new bots are only decent cleaners: The mop function isn't great for tough stains, and the mop pad actually makes them sit higher off the ground, which slightly reduces their vacuuming power. But they serve just fine as maintenance cleaners. The ideal home for a vac-mop: They work best on hard flooring on a single level of a  home (they can’t really  handle stairs). While carpet detection has improved, it still isn't flawless. The realities of bulky docks and limited repairability: Newer models rely on large docking stations that take up a significant amount of floor space. Plus, the added mopping components mean there are more parts that can break. When to buy and what to spend: Wait for major sales events like Prime Day and Black Friday, or look for deals when newly updated models are released. A good price to look for on a mid-range combo vac-mop like our pick is around $600 or below.   Products we recommend:  A great vacuum-only robot: Roborock Q7 M5+Roborock Q7 M5+ A decent $200-ish vacuum-only bot: Tapo RV30 Max Plus A solid entry-level robot vac-mop: Eufy Robot Vacuum Omni E25   Additional reading: Even Robots Don’t Want to Vacuum  The Best Robot Vacuums of 2026 The 4 Best Robot Mop-Vac Combos of 2026  We Tested 16 Newfangled Robot Vacuum-Mop Combos.

    Is This the End of Affordable Tech?

    Consumer tech is getting more expensive just as laptops and phones have become more essential than ever. In this episode, Rosie leads a roundtable discussion with Wirecutter’s senior editor Caitlin McGarry, supervising editor Arthur Gies and senior staff writer Kimber Streams, about why the era of truly cheap computers is ending. They discuss how AI is reshaping the hardware supply chain and what you can do if you need a new device right now.   This episode covers: Why RAM and storage costs are spiking. AI companies are buying up much of the supply of RAM and storage, increasing the price for these tech essentials. Consumer tech companies that make our laptops and phones are struggling to compete. How price hikes are showing up across devices. From Chromebooks and Windows laptops to flagship phones, microSD cards, and video game consoles, 2026 has brought record price increases. What to prioritize in a new computer today. If you need a new computer, look for models with enough RAM and storage, even if that means refurbished models from manufacturers or third party retailers. Guidance on when it makes sense to buy. While the landscape of truly affordable computers is shrinking, there are great options like the MacBook Neo available now. We may see summer sales on other models, but consider purchasing your “back-to-school” tech early for the best prices.   Products we recommend:  A surprisingly great budget laptop: Apple MacBook Neo   Additional reading: The Death of the Cheap Laptop Is Coming  The Best Cheap Laptops Under $500 for 2026 MacBook Neo Review: A Surprisingly Great Budget MacBook  The 6 Best Laptops for College Students in 2026  Tech Prices Are Skyrocketing.

    What We Learned from Testing 40 Canned Cocktails

    Gone are the days when canned alcoholic drinks meant only hard seltzers and tailgate beverages. Today’s ready-to-drink cocktails include everything from espresso martinis and old-fashioneds to gin- and soju-based spritzes.    Wirecutter kitchen writer, Antara Sinha, joins us to explain how she tested 40 canned cocktails, what separates a great canned drink from a mediocre one, and which ones are actually worth bringing to your next picnic, barbecue, or dinner party. Plus, we conduct a live taste test in the studio.   This episode covers: Why canned cocktails have become a legitimate alternative to bar drinks. Antara explains how the category has evolved from hard seltzers and tailgate beverages into a market full of carefully crafted cocktails made with premium spirits, higher alcohol content, and recipes designed to mimic what you'd order at a cocktail bar. How to identify a great canned cocktail before you buy it. After tasting 40 different drinks, Antara found that the best brands are transparent about their ingredients and feature high quality spirits. How to choose the right canned cocktail for your tastes and occasion. Antara suggests using canned cocktails as a low-commitment way to explore drinks you might not otherwise make at home, whether that's a negroni, espresso martini, or old fashioned.   Products we recommend:  A citrusy, soju-based cocktail: Jumo Soju Cocktail (Mango, Yuja, Citrus Mint) Bold, rich, and complex: Tip Top Old Fashioned Botanical, light, and crushable: The Original Southside Indulgent, luxe, and seasonal: Cutwater White Russian   Additional reading: The 9 Best Canned Cocktails of 2026  21 Best Nonalcoholic Drinks of 2026 Wirecutter’s Guide to Shopping at Trader Joe’s   We independently review everything we recommend.

  8. The Beginner’s Guide To Retinol Products

    Jun 2

    The Beginner’s Guide To Retinol Products

    A retinoid is one of the best, scientifically-backed products you can use to keep your skin looking youthful. These vitamin A derivatives are among the very few skin-care products that can boost collagen, minimizing the appearance of pores and fine lines.    In this episode, we’re bringing on two experts to help you determine the type of retinol product that’s best for you. Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Nikhil Dhingra, of Spring Street Dermatology, explains how retinoids work and how to decide between using over-the-counter (OTC) and prescription-strength products. Wirecutter editor Rory Evans shares the top OTC products from Wirecutter’s extensive testing.    This episode covers: What retinoids can do for your skin: Helping to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. They can also help with hyperpigmentation, protect the skin against sun damage, and thicken skin that’s starting to thin with age. The difference between prescription-strength and OTC retinoids: Prescription-strength retinoids are generally more powerful and can also be more irritating to the skin. Some, such as tretinoin, are already in their active form, retinoic acid, while others bind directly to retinoid receptors in the skin. OTC retinol products, by contrast, are generally less potent and often less irritating because they must be converted by the skin into active retinoic acid before exerting their effects. The difference between OTC ingredients: Although OTC products are often referred to as retinols, they feature a range of active ingredients. Retinal (short for retinaldehyde), requires one conversion step to become retinoic acid. Retinol needs two conversion steps, while retinyl palmitate requires three. Adapalene doesn't convert to retinoic acid and interacts differently with skin to limit oil production and minimize inflammation (which is why it’s mostly used in acne treatment). Tips for using retinol products: Dr. Dhingra recommends starting with a pea-sized amount only a few times a week. To reduce irritation, you can also use the sandwich method—apply moisturizer, layer your retinol product, and top it with moisturizer again to safely dilute the product. OTC retinol products, by skin type: Rory walks us through the top OTC products from Wirecutter’s extensive testing.   Products we recommend:  Best for mature skin: SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0 Best for adjustable potency: Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 Best for sensitive skin: Youth To The People Retinal + Niacinamide Youth Serum Best for dry skin: LilyAna Naturals Retinol Cream Best adapalene for acne: La Roche-Posay Effaclar Adapalene Gel 0.1% Best value: Trader Joe’s Retinol Night Serum Best drugstore retinol: L’Oréal Paris Revitalift 0.3% Pure Retinol Rory loves: Wander Sports Sun Visor   Additional reading: The 7 Best Retinol Products of 2026  The Best Face Sunscreens and SPF Moisturizers The 7 Best Moisturizers of 2026  Simple and Affordable Skin-Care   We independently review everything we recommend.
