The Review

I never thought I'd be the kind of person who has "opinions" on a rubbish bin, but this is officially our Hero Pick because it turns a domestic chore into a design statement.

Joseph Joseph has managed to turn the most depressing part of adulthood-sorting the plastics from the glass-into a sleek, vertical operation that saves your floor space and your sanity.

It's tall, it's handsome, and it hides your shame (takeaway containers) in a way that makes your kitchen look like you've actually read a book on interior design.

It's basically a bunk bed for your rubbish, proving that even the most mundane objects can be clever enough to be the star of the show.

The Irresistible

  • The vertical stack design is a space-saving masterclass, perfect for tiny British kitchens where every square inch is a battleground.
  • The integrated odour filter is a lifesaver, stopping the bin from smelling like a seafood market after three days.

The Clever Part

  • The removable inner buckets have clever liner-retaining holes, so the bags don't slip down and cause a catastrophic mess.
  • It has a dedicated food waste caddy that sits neatly inside, making you feel like a responsible, composting member of society.

The Fine Print

  • It's so nice-looking that you'll feel a genuine sense of betrayal the first time you get a scuff mark on the stainless steel lid.
  • You are essentially locked into buying their custom-fit liners unless you want to spend your Saturday wrestling with a standard bin bag.

The Reality Check

  • It is quite literally a bin, and the fact that you will want to show it off to your neighbours is a sign that your youth has officially left the building.

The Review

We've spent decades trying to put the entire internet in our pockets, and now we're paying a premium for a device that proudly does... almost nothing.

The reMarkable 2 is for the person who wants to look like a sophisticated architect while actually just doodling incoherent shapes during a Zoom call.

It's thinner than a posh biscuit and has a screen that feels so much like paper it's almost spooky.

It's the ultimate "fountain pen" of the digital age-entirely unnecessary, slightly pretentious, and absolutely lovely to use.

The Irresistible

  • The writing feel is genuinely unparalleled; it has that scratchy, tactile feedback that makes your handwriting look slightly less like a doctor's ransom note.
  • It is unbelievably thin, making it the only piece of tech I own that actually makes my leather satchel look cooler.

The Clever Part

  • The lack of notifications is a feature, not a bug, protecting your fragile attention span from the bottomless pit of Instagram.
  • Converting handwritten notes to text works surprisingly well, even if you write in a frantic scrawl like I do.

The Fine Print

  • You have to replace the pen nibs, which feels like a bit of a cheek in 2025/6; it's like buying a car and finding out the steering wheel wears down.
  • The lack of a backlight means you're back to the 19th century-if the sun goes down, you're finished.

The Reality Check

  • Without the expensive "Type Folio" or a subscription, it's basically just a very posh, very expensive Etch A Sketch that can't even do a proper Etch A Sketch shake.

The Review

My flat currently has the "big light" which makes everything look like a police interrogation room, or total darkness-there is no middle ground.

Enter the Govee, a skinny stick of light that promises to turn my living room into a trendy Soho lounge or a neon-soaked cyberpunk alleyway.

It's perfect for people who want "atmosphere" but are too lazy to actually light a candle or buy a lampshade.

It's so bright it could probably guide a lost Boeing 747 into my kitchen, but at least the colours look lovely against the damp patches.

The Irresistible

  • The RGBIC technology is properly impressive, allowing different colours to dance along the same pole like a very polite disco.
  • It's amazingly slender, fitting into those awkward corners where you usually just store a broken vacuum cleaner and hope no one notices.

The Clever Part

  • The app control is surprisingly deep, letting you sync the lights to your music so you can have a private rave while eating your beans on toast.
  • Integration with Alexa and Google means you can change the mood without having to physically exert yourself by standing up.

The Fine Print

  • The base is a bit of a dust magnet and, despite being weighted, feels like it might topple if you sneeze too aggressively in its general direction - thankfully it does not.
  • Some of the preset "scenes" are so frantic they feel less like ambient lighting and more like a medical emergency.

The Reality Check

  • Setting up the Wi-Fi connection can be a right faff, occasionally requiring you to contemplate your life choices while staring at a blinking red light for twenty minutes.

The Review

The traditional round water bottle is a design disaster for anyone who carries a bag; it's a rolling, clanking cylinder that refuses to play nice with my MacBook.

The memobottle is what happens when someone decides that hydration should be shaped like a piece of stationery.

It slides into a backpack like a secret flask of gin, but instead, it's just boring old water and a sense of smug efficiency.

It's the perfect accessory for the minimalist who wants to stay hydrated without looking like they're about to summit Everest in the middle of Canary Wharf.

The Irresistible

  • It fits perfectly next to your laptop or iPad, meaning your bag no longer looks like it's swallowed a grapefruit.
  • The build quality is surprisingly tank-like; it's made of BPA-free plastic that feels like it could survive a drop or a particularly aggressive commute.

The Clever Part

  • It's a brilliant conversation piece at the office, mostly because people will ask why you are trying to drink from a DVD case.
  • The leak-proof lid is genuinely trustworthy, which is vital when it's snuggled up next to ?2,000 worth of electronics.

The Fine Print

  • Cleaning the inside is a total nightmare; unless you have a tiny bottle brush and the patience of a saint, you'll never see those corners again.
  • Because it's flat, it doesn't stand up very well on its own if the surface is even slightly uneven.

The Reality Check

  • If you drop this on a hard floor, the "crack" sound it makes is so loud and violent you'll assume you've broken both the bottle and the floor.

Levitating Air Bonsai Pot Ronsoile

A magnetic levitation system that suspends and rotates a small geometric planter in mid-air.

The Review

I've always felt that my houseplants weren't doing enough to earn their keep, just sitting there photosynthesising and looking green.

This magnetic marvel solves that by making your succulents literally hover, turning your desk into a scene from a low-budget sci-fi film.

It's the ultimate conversation starter for when you have guests over and want to distract them from the fact that you've forgotten to buy biscuits.

Just don't expect it to actually help the plant grow; if anything, the poor thing is probably just wondering why the floor has disappeared.

The Irresistible

  • There is an undeniably hypnotic quality to watching a plant spin slowly in the air while you're supposed to be filling out tax returns.
  • The minimalist geometric design looks genuinely posh on a shelf, provided you can hide the power cable behind a stack of books.

The Clever Part

  • The magnetic levitation is actually quite robust once you find the "sweet spot," which makes you feel like a minor wizard.
  • It rotates 360 degrees automatically, ensuring your plant gets even sunlight-or at least a very dizzying tan.

The Fine Print

  • Finding the balance point is a test of patience that would break a Tibetan monk; one millimetre off and your plant becomes a magnetic projectile.
  • If the power cuts out, your levitating forest comes crashing down with a heart-stopping thud.

The Reality Check

  • If you have a cat, this isn't a planter; it's a high-stakes game of "physics-defying pinata" that will inevitably end in a soil-covered carpet.
