After many rounds of testing, we’ve found that the softest faux fur blankets are the coziest (and what we reach for most often). But it’s also critical that the fur fibers themselves last, surviving daily wear and looking plush after rounds of wash

Over time, we like how well this blanket handles everyday wear and tear. It stays fluffy even with plenty of lounging (from both people and pets!), and it washes beautifully. While it’s common for faux fur blankets to shed some of their fuzzy fibers, we’ve experienced far less shedding with this blanket than with the others on our l

The Albany Park Kova Pit Sofa won us over during testing with its gorgeous color and comfy cushions. This pit sofa is larger than a traditional couch with seat cushions and footrests that can be arranged into a bed-like formation, allowing multiple people to lie back and stretch out their l

I’ve owned the set for three years, and I can confidently say it’s a solid option for those looking to dip their toe in the jersey sheet world without splurging. In addition to my personal experience, our team also tested this sheet set and found the jersey fabric soft, lightweight, and comfortable against bare s

Though, along with that comes lots of bulk and weight, which made it very cumbersome to unpack and setup. We managed with just one person, but it's not for the faint of heart—two people would have made it much eas

We’ve tested hundreds of sheet sets at The Spruce, and jersey sheets are typically among the least durable and most insulating options. So, we’ve made it our mission to find the best available, even if their performance differs from other sheet types, like percale cotton , bamboo, or li

I find that it's very handy year-round, including unpredictable late-fall weather and chilly winters, and during the summer, too. I often switch between the fan and heater modes and occasionally just use it as an air purifier (which helps with summer colds). I found the third and fourth fan settings kept our room cool during milder temperatures and provided great white noise at ni

The Company Store’s Classic Jersey Sheet Set defies the poor durability reputation of jersey sheets. With high-quality stitching and a heavyweight feel, this is the most durable jersey sheet set we’ve tes

With 36-inch-deep seats and soft, yet supportive, cushions, the Bondi Sofa is welcoming, spacious, and oh-so-plush. Like the rest of the Bondi collection, this conveniently modular couch system can be rearranged to accommodate your needs. Each piece can be used as a standalone seat or ottoman, or you can attach them to create numerous configurati

Jennifer used this landscape edging to create a "centerpiece" in her yard. She was hoping it would help control weeds, especially poison ivy . The border was easy to place (and clean) around a small garden area with an arbor. Although it isn’t as sturdy as other options, she hasn’t had any damage from her dogs running through the a

I’m Jenica Currie, a senior editor for The Spruce who covers gardening and outdoor products, and more. I have spent a lot of time establishing garden areas around my Home Design game missions|https://homecolorcraft.com/, and have used bricks, stones, plastic edging, and whatever I can find. For this article, I tested the Amazon Basics Landscape Edging Coil to help create a border around a rose bush and focal point outside my side porch. I also analyzed our testing insights for the 11 products we tested in our own ya

If you want an affordable little unit you can easily carry wherever you need it, I love this option from GiveBest. During testing, our team was impressed by its heating abilities, especially given its compact size. Its dual cooling and heating functions make it the perfect addition to any small room (it’s designed for heating spaces up to 200 square feet, about the size of a one-car gara

Laura installed this edging during the hot summer months, after a period of heavy rain. This is the first time she’s used edging, and her goal was to contain mulch and control weeds, with a clean look. It took a few hours to install along the side of her fence and large yard, but she loved how intuitive it

The Dreo Atom One Space Heater is a great option for small rooms because of its programmable thermostat, extra safety features, and compact size. Our team tested it and found it very easy to use, with a clear digital display that's visible from a few feet away (similar to a digital alarm clock ), a remote control that works up to 8 feet away, and intuitive controls. You can set the exact temperature you'd like between 45 and 90 degrees, and the unit turns 35 degrees in either direction to help circulate the

Daniela added this edging on the side of her house with plants and mulch. She’s also testing another faux-stone edging from Beaux, our easiest installation pick. She liked the size and shape of this one—it's better for a large a
