With 2021 coming to a close, we're looking back on the products that wowed us. Despite unprecedented supply chain issues, shipping delays, rising retail costs, and two—yes, two!—basement floods at the Reviewed labs, we managed to test over 2,000 products this year. And, as ever, we found a lot of great, inventive, and affordable products that we're happy to recommend.
What was trending with our readers? Face masks and other covid-related purchases slowed, but it was clear that mentally recovering from 2020 took some time, as stories aboutpillows,letting your pets sleep in the bed, andsoothing stressed-out skinsurged early in the year. By summer, you were venturing out into the world again, only to be met byendless flight cancellationsand roving gangs ofcicadas. But as the end of the year approached—bedraggled and exhausted though we all may be—seasonal instincts kicked back in andholiday gift guidesprevailed.
The Reviewed Best of Year awards are the culmination of everything we loved. Spanning ten categories—Major Appliances,Kitchen & Cooking,Laundry & Cleaning,雷竞技raybet竞猜,Smart Home,育儿,Health & Beauty,Pets,Style, andSleep—we bestowed our highest honor on 134 winners, just a small fraction of the total number of products we tested.
Congratulations to all the winners. Scroll down to see a few of the highlights or jump over to thecomplete list of 2021 Best of Year winners.
