Review: Six months later, I bought two more ECOVACS DEEBOT T30S robot vacuums because they are that good [Deal]

When I reviewed the ECOVACS DEEBOT T30S Combo about six months ago, I had no idea how much I would grow to love it. Having used several different models and brands, there was always something to complain about with each one. Throughout all of my other robot vacuum adventures, one has reigned supreme, and that’s the ECOVACS DEEBOT T30S. So when the day finally came and some head-turning sale prices arrived, I purchased two more so I could have one on each level of my home.

Yeedi is back with a new take on what an all-in-one robot vacuum solution should be.

Tested: Tribit StormBox 2 is the water bottle-sized, value-packed Bluetooth speaker I’ve always wanted

Order Now!

These days the Bluetooth speaker market can feel overcrowded. This has caused many manufacturers to add lots of gimmicky features that may catch attention at first, but don’t actually matter in the long run. That’s why I was refreshed by the thought of Tribit’s latest portable Bluetooth speaker, StormBox 2. It focuses on the basics and not much else. This is what I’ve loved about the StormBox Micro that I purchased four years ago. It has delivered solid battery life and a surprising amount of power despite its compact form factor. So when Tribit offered to send a review unit of StormBox 2, I was thrilled to accept.

Review: JBL PartyBox Stage 320 Speaker – a 36-pound monster that blew me away

Buy Now!

I’ve had the pleasure of using quite a few Bluetooth speakers over the years, with some of my recent favorites being the Marshall Kilburn II and Tribit StormBox Micro. So when JBL offered to let me review its new PartyBox 320, I was interested, but not necessarily ecstatic. That started to change once I began digging into the specifications and realized just how monstrous and powerful this speaker could wind up being. My suspicions were confirmed when this 36-pound monster arrived in the mail.

While unboxing the JBL PartyBox Stage 320, I couldn’t help but smile. Looking back, I think it’s because I knew that the size and heft meant that this thing was going to pack a punch. Seeing the actual speaker helped seal the deal too, with loads of easy-to-access controls, plenty of inputs around back, and wheels along the base paired with a handle up top that make it easier to roll it from one place to another. I couldn’t wait to start trying it out, so keep on reading to hear about my experience unboxing, pairing, and using this powerful speaker.

Tested: Linkind’s Matter smart light bulbs reliably work with Apple Home at a shockingly low price

$5.50 each

I bought my first smart light bulb well over a decade ago now. Over time, I’ve tried countless brands of smart bulbs, smart plugs to control lamps, and have even swapped out light switches for smart ones. Now my home has a mixture of all those things, and I would have it no other way. I’ve generally leaned on Philips Hue for smart bulbs because they’re one of the most platform-agnostic solutions out there, but the arrival of Matter has changed the game. This paved the way for me to eventually try out a 4-pack of Linkind Matter-enabled smart light bulbs at an incredibly low price.
