There’s no question that diet and exercise both play huge roles in overall heath, but people tend to put too much emphasis on the former and not enough on the latter. This is especially true when it comes to weight loss; you can spend hours in the gym each week and it’s all for naught if you stuff yourself full of junk food and carbs every day. This is a big reason why vegetable spiralizers are such great things to have. Pasta is always a fast, easy, and delicious choice for dinner, but it’s also packed full of calories. Pick up one of the zucchini noodle makers we’ll recommend below, and that carb-heavy meal becomes a healthy dinner instead.

Best overall

Sometimes the first is in fact the best, and it doesn’t get any better than the Original Zoodle Slicer Complete Vegetable Spiralizer. It’s nowhere near as fancy or heavy-duty as the many spiralizers you can crank, but it’s much simpler and far easier to clean. There are no complex components or even any moving parts. Just stick a zucchini, carrot, or any similar vegetable into the end and turn it with your handle while applying pressure. Presto, you’ve got delicious vegetable noodles ready to be cooked up and sauced!

The Original Zoodle Slicer – Complete Vegetable Spiralizer, Spiral Slicer Bundle (With Cleaning…: $10.99

Best crank style spiralizer

The WonderVeg 5-Blade Vegetable Spiralizer is one of the strongest heavy-duty vegetable noodle makers you’ll ever come across. It makes quick work of any vegetable that crosses its path, and the strong 420-Japanese grade stainless steel blades will stay as razor sharp after the 100th use as they were after the first.

WonderVeg Perfect Vegetable Slicer and Spiralizer with 7-Stainless Steel Blades, White: $23.99

Best vertical crank spiralizer

The Zalik Spiralizer Vegetable Slicer uses a hand crank just like the WonderVeg model we recommended, but it’s vertically oriented instead of horizontally oriented. This form factor is actually a fantastic option for people concerned with portion control, because the vegetable noodles feed into an integrated plastic container. Fill the container and you’ve got one portion, whereas people tend to overeat if they just keep making more noodles until their vegetables are done.

Of all the essential kitchen tools out there, over mitts are likely the most often neglected. People tend to buy cheap mitts at a local store and then continue to use them long after they start falling apart. Rather than continuing to use the same stained, tattered old mitts that you’ve been suffering with for years, perhaps it’s time for an upgrade. Not all over mitts are created equal though, which is why we put all the top options to the test in order to pick out the best of the bunch.

Best cloth mitts

Cloth oven mitts have come a long way in recent years. In fact, many high-quality cloth mitts offer the same amount of heat protection as silicone mitts. High-quality doesn’t have to mean high prices though, and there is no better evidence of that than the Bestjoy Flame Retardant Oven Mitts. These sleek mitts have a diamond stitch pattern and are heat resistant to 425°, making them ideal for home use. Cook with these oven mitts just one time and you’ll wonder why you waited so long to replace your ratty old mitts.

Best silicone mitts

Silicone oven mitts are all the rage right now, due in part to the fact that people seem to think that silicone inherently offers better heat protection. While that isn’t necessarily true, silicone mitts do offer another big benefit over cloth: they’re much easier to clean. Anyone in search of a fantastic pair of silicone mitts should pick up the Homwe Extra Long Professional Silicone Oven Mitts. They feature a fantastic design, great grip, quilted cloth lining for comfort, and a wonderfully affordable price tag.

Best glove-style mitts

While traditional oven mitts are certainly the most common type of heat protection in the kitchen, they’re not the only option. People looking for heat protection that can stay on your hands and even protect you while you prep should check out the Semboh Extreme Heat Resistant Oven Mitt Gloves. In addition to providing heat resistance up to 1,472° and anti-slip silicone studs on the interior side, they also protect your fingers from accidental knife cuts.

More options:

• Swish Abode Red Silicone Pinch Mitts. Some people prefer pinch mitts to traditional oven mitts because they’re so much easier to put on and take off.
• BIG RED HOUSE Oven Mitts. These cotton mitts let the wearer enjoy the comfort and flexibility of cotton, and yet they resist heat even better than most silicone oven mitts.
• Frux Black Silicone Oven Hot Mitts. These comfortable silicone oven mitts feature one of the best anti-slip textures we tested.
• Cuisinart Silicone Mini Oven Mitts. These mini mitts are made of silicone, but they offer the comfort and flexibility of cloth mitts.
• DII Cotton Long Terry Double Oven Mitt. In addition to traditional mitts, pinch mitts, and gloves, the double mitt is another popular form factor that many people love.

Whether you’re a longtime runner or you’re just beginning to get into it, it’s impossible to stress enough just how important it is to get a good pair of running shoes. Poorly made running shoes can cause huge problems in the short term, because it’s far too easy to injure yourself when you don’t have a good quality shoe. They can also have a long-term negative impact if they don’t have good arch support and ankle support. If you’re looking for a new running shoe that checks all of the important boxes, you’re come to the right place because we’ve rounded up some of the best options on the market right now.

There’s also a built-in sockliner that can be removed and replaced with a medical orthotic if you use them.

There will never be a real substitute for deep-frying. It simply can’t be done. If you’re willing to make a small compromise on taste though, you can make deliciously crispy food with a small fraction of the calories you consume when you eat deep-fried foods. Air fryers cook up crispy food without all the oil and grease you get from deep-frying. A good air fryer is absolutely a must-have, and you’ll find all of your best options right here.

Best medium-sized option

People with small or medium-sized families will find that the GoWISE USA GW22639 3.7-Quart Programmable Air Fryer is a fantastic option.

Apple wasn’t the first company to release true wireless earbuds, but there’s no question whatsoever that Apple’s AirPods were the first cord-free earphones to really break out.

Nintendo has been hosting semi-regular live streamed events called Nintendo Directs for several years, but in recent months, both Sony and Microsoft have joined in with shows of their own. Sony’s State of Play show kicked off back in March with a 20 minute stream covering a variety of upcoming PlayStation VR titles, including an Iron Man game from Camouflaj (the team behind République) and the VR mode for No Man’s Sky.

More than a month later, PlayStation is back with another edition of State of Play, with the show (which you can watch at the top of this post) set to begin at 3 p.m. PT / 6 p.m. ET. This is the second-ever State of Play episode, and based on the first episode, Sony still isn’t totally sure what the show is supposed to be.
