Rabbit Air A3 Air Purifier
Wall mounting the A3 saves space and there’s one less power cord to trip over
Rick Moon
Air purifiers are a big deal in my house. The past two years have been a non-stop barrage of wildfire smoke and dust from (seemingly) never ending home renovation projects. Add our two big dogs and two cats to the mix, and keeping our air fresh and breathable while reducing dust, fur and pet dander and smells has been a challenge. Oh, and three kids in college, working part-time, riding busses and living at home, bringing home every virus known to man? I have been more than happy to test a series of air purifiers. Last year, this included the Rabbit Air A3 which was outstanding in performance and effectiveness, smart to operate with its touchscreen and app controls and reasonable in replacement filter costs. With wall-mount support and optional custom art panels, this air purifier also blends into home decor better than most.
Morel Hifi BIGGIE Portable Bluetooth Speaker
A pair of BIGGIE speakers makes a formidable 2-channel wireless stereo system

Morel Hifi’s BIGGIE portable Bluetooth speaker sounded great with a 60W Class D amp driving a 4-inch woofer and 1-inch tweeter with dynamic EQ to ensure every track sounds its best. Even better when two of them were wirelessly paired for stereo sound. What really made this portable speaker stand out, was its minimalist design, stylish leather carrying handle and eye-popping rainbow of nine different color options.
Anker Solix C300 DC Portable Power Station
This pop-up lantern may be my favorite feature
Brad Moon
This is a truly portable power station. No AC electrical outlets, it’s aimed at charging your mobile devices, with a 288Wh LiFePO4 battery and a variety of USB ports. What made it memorable was its pop-up light that makes this power station an ideal choice for campers. Other portable power stations have built-in LED emergency lighting but this design really lights up a room, deck, or campsite.
Fluance RT81+ Elite High Fidelity Vinyl Turntable

The very first turntable I reviewed for Forbes back in 2016 was the Fluance RT81. Last year, I had the opportunity to spin up the company’s upgraded version of that classic. The RT81+ improves on the original with an acrylic platter mat over a dampened aluminum platter, an Audio Technica AT-VM95E Cartridge with a diamond elliptical stylus and three adjustable isolation feet. Fluance turntables are always a great value for the price and this one also includes the solid MDF plinth the lineup is known for, a Texas Instruments phono preamp with gold-plated RCA connectors, auto-stop, an S-shaped tonearm and switchable 2-speed operation. At $299.99 the Fluance RT81+ proves you don’t have to spend a lot of money to get a high-quality turntable.
