Mixx packages a Bluetooth turntable with wireless speakers for $300
Mixx Audio, a relative newcomer to the budget audio category, has an intriguing new package for those who want to dip their toes into the world of vinyl — without spending a fortune or foregoing the convenience of wireless digital audio. The Mixx Analog System 5 combines a Bluetooth-capable turntable with a pair of Bluetooth bookshelf speakers, for $300. The system comes in either black or white color options and you can grab it right now on Amazon.

The turntable sits on a wooden plinth and the angled aluminum tonearm comes with an Audio-Technica AT3600L moving magnet cartridge. It uses a belt drive and can run at both 33 and 45 RPM speeds, with a dedicated pitch control feature. A 45 RPM adapter is also included for playing singles.
On the rear of the deck are several connectivity options. You can choose between a line level or phono output from the stereo RCA jacks, or you switch to a Bluetooth output.
The included wireless 2-way speakers have a claimed 50-watt output, and in addition to their Bluetooth connection (which can be used with the turntable or any other Bluetooth source), they have line-in, optical, coaxial, and USB playback ports.
The speakers have adjustable bass and treble, a come with a remote control.
Mixx hasn't indicated which Bluetooth codecs are supported or whether the speakers are capable of simultaneous multipoint connections.
Earlier in February, Mixx announced a $99 suitcase record player featuring built-in speakers and bi-directional Bluetooth transmission, letting you play vinyl wirelessly or use the record player as a Bluetooth speaker.

Looking for a unique way to style flowers? Martha Stewart and Meghan Markle's vase alternatives will make you rethink conventional vessels
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. There's never a bad time to dress your entryway with flowers, but if there's ever a particularly good time, it's summer. It goes without saying that the upcoming season offers every excuse to fill your rooms with beautiful blooms, but for 2025, I wanted to take things further than a conventional glass vase. This is where Meghan Markle and Martha Stewart's inspiration comes into play. A unifying thread between Meghan and Martha is their unique alternatives to vases. Starting with Meghan. She recently shared footage of her flower arrangement from her Montecito home, in which she styles roses in a cream urn, typically a vessel that's used for much larger flower arrangements. It's undeniably unique; however, it's not the first time I've seen a unique vase alternative this week. Only a few days ago, the celebrity style team also covered how Martha Stewart uses footed compote bowls as a substitute for a classic flower vase, and I couldn't help but notice the similarities between her choice and Meghan's urn, despite Martha's footage dating back through the decades. This planter offers durability and style for your entryway, living room, or outside on your patio. It's perfectly sized for presenting your favorite plants and flowers in a modern and stylish manner. Was $84, now $73.99 at Wayfair Nothing says chic like a glass compote bowl, and this sturdy, Roman-style one meets the mark. From $19.99 on Amazon Give your flower arrangement a luxe vessel with this gold compote bowl, featuring a dainty stem and scalloped edges. From $26.99 on Amazon Despite seeing Meghan's and Martha's vase alternatives in the same week, the latter is certainly nothing new. Martha Stewart first showed off her footed compote arrangement over three decades ago, but the lessons remain just as inspiring in 2025. 'This is a footed compote really meant for candy or fruit, and just take the covers off,' she says in the footage. I have a pair of these and I'm really very fond of them for flower arranging. They stand up off the table and they're pretty.' Martha also shared a tip to ensure your footed compote bowls remain fit for purpose after you get rid of your blooms. 'Protect your containers with a little bit of plastic. If this were silver, the frogs might scratch it, and if it's glass too, a little bit of rust might be left in the bottom of the bowl,' she demonstrates. 'I'm going to use this large spring frog placed right on top of that plastic.' Is this the summer of unconventional vases? With examples from Meghan and Martha to follow, I'm unlikely to go back to a regular flower vessel for the rest of the season.

33 Of The Best Summer Products You've Seen In A While
A Ninja Slushi maker so you can ~slushify~ any drink you could possibly want. Ever wondered what your lemonade would taste like as a slushee? Well, now you can find out! Or whip up some delicious frozen margs. Orrr stick to the classics and make an at-home Coke Icee. The world is your oyster (...or slurpee?). Promising review: "The Ninja Slushi is an absolute gem for anyone who loves frozen drinks! It's incredibly easy to use—just pour in your favorite soda, juice, or cocktail mix, pick a preset, and in under an hour, you've got a perfectly slushy treat. I made a cherry cola slush that tasted just like a 7-Eleven Slurpee, and the texture was spot-on. The machine is quiet, easy to clean with its rinse cycle and dishwasher-safe parts, and the 88-oz capacity is great for sharing. It's a bit bulky, but the fun and delicious drinks make it worth the counter space. Highly recommend for summer parties or daily treats." —RajGet it from Amazon for $349.99. A reusable, family-friendly sand eraser filled with a talc-free and reef-friendly powder that'll help remove the sand that sticks to every inch of your little one (and you). Keep this on hand for the beach or even for after an afternoon of playing in the sandbox at your local park. An inflatable beach pillow so you can upgrade your perfect afternoon nap by the ocean with a comfortable place to rest your head instead of making a makeshift pillow out of a pile of sand. They're designed to stay put even when it's windy *and* there's a spot for you to put a cooling pack when you wanna catch some ZZZs without pouring sweat. An umbrella tray table to give you a dry, sand-free spot to keep all the essentials — snacks, sunscreen, phones, and goggles. And they're always at arm's reach, so you don't have to dig into your never-ending, Mary Poppins–seeming bag. A set of spicy margarita instant cocktail tea bags so you can have your fave cocktail without needing to buy a whole bar's worth of ingredients to make it. This couldn't be easier — just add three ounces of cold water, 1.5 ounces of hard liquor, and drop in the teabag. One minute later, BOOM, your delicious drink is ready. A waterproof disposable camera, since apparently digital cameras are trending again, so obviously you have to bring nostalgic vibes to the beach and ocean. Now you can capture proof of that adorable sea turtle you saw instead of just telling people and hoping they believe you. A laptop tent because let's be honest, how much work are you actually accomplishing while you sit inside staring longingly at your chair outside that's directly in the sun. Now you can soak it all up without risking getting fired cause you're still working!! Even Hannah Montana would be jealous of you getting the best of both worlds. A four-pack of towel bands for a solution that'll keep your towels down *and* won't take up a huge chunk of your (limited) suitcase. It's basically an oversized rubber band designed to keep your towel from flying off your chair, aaaand it can help you quickly identify your seat from a sea of hundreds of towels that are all exactly the same. Some vinyl picnic table and bench covers that are perfect for your lunch in the park when you do not wanna sit on the ground but the tables around are… not exactly… clean. These will protect you from the last group's leftover mess and ensure you aren't adding to the problem for whoever comes next. Or you can stick 'em on the table in your backyard to make it a little extra cutie while also protecting you from getting a splinter in your booty. A reusable XL gel ice pack to create the ~ultimate~ cooling experience. Just set it on top of you and it'll stay cold for up to 28 minutes while contouring to your body to give you some sweet, sweet relief from the heat that seems to be never-ending. A weighted headrest so your aesthetic (but mildly uncomfortable) pool chairs can get an upgrade that'll make you wanna sit in them for hours. You just have to hang this over the top and the weighted back keeps it from falling down *and* allows for easy adjustment so it fits perfectly for each person. A thermal phone case to help keep your phone safe from overheating so you don't get back to your beach chair to check your texts only to see that annoying "phone must cool down" message that blocks you from doing anything for at least 10 minutes. A pack of underarm shields designed to protect your pits from the dreaded wet stains (…and smells). Just stick the adhesive onto your shirt and you're all set to feel dry alllll day long! A pre-swim hair cream that can help protect your hair from the damaging chlorine while you're swimming laps or playing mermaids. This stuff will help prevent your strands from getting dry and brittle and can save anyone with blonde locks from the dreaded greenish tint that sometimes makes an appearance in the summer. An inflatable lounger to absolutely upgrade sunbathing into a luxurious experience fit for royalty. Lay down flat and grab some shut eye, or sit on it like a couch with your friends while you debrief from the day. A foldable baby bath chair that one TikToker hacked to turn into the perfect beach lounging spot. Since it's made for a bath it is the perfect option for setting your kiddo in a little pool of water to help them cool off, or just to give them a comfy spot to rest in the shade. And it folds up flat so you can easily take it to and from the beach. A cut-to-size aloe wrap because as hard as you try, you miiiight still end up with a sunburn that feels like your skin is on fire, and this will be your new BFF. The sigh you're about to release when this cooling patch touches your bright red skin is gonna be next level. A portable lock box that can easily secure to beach chairs or tables so you can stash your phone and wallet while you go jump in the waves. Now, you can enjoy beach time as a family instead of having to leave someone at the chairs to guard your stuff. The Noggle, which is an ingenious way to make sure kiddos in the backseat (especially if they're rear-facing) can get some much-needed AC because apparently no car makers really thought about that when deciding where to set up the fans?! A clip-on cupholder you can attach to your beach chair, boat, or poolside table to make sure you always have a convenient place to rest your drink so you don't risk spilling your precious frozen daiquiri. An adjustable folding rattan chair perfect for lounging on the side of the pool, so you can be comfy while still keeping your feet in the water because it is HOT 🥵 and there's no way you're lasting outside for more than 10 minutes if you aren't at least partially in the pool. The backrest can be adjusted to four levels to make sure you're always comfy as heck. A Shibumi windblown shade that'll keep you protected from the sun's scorching rays. Plus, it packs down into a super small and convenient case so you can easily pack and carry it. Some goggles with a click-open clasp and mirrored lenses, because it's 2025, and someone finally invented a version that doesn't fog up or pull your hair out when you take 'em off. Gone are the days of fighting your kiddo to get out of the pool just to have to wrestle their goggles off, yanking their hair in the process, and making an already grumpy kid grumpier. Those wails will never be heard again. Or a pair of Frogglez that have fully redesigned the goggle game. Like, seriously, who thought it was a good idea to make the strap a piece of plastic that gets wrapped around your hair and then rips HUGE clumps out when you take them off?! These are made with a neoprene strap and have adjustable Velcro so they can actually fit each kiddo's head comfortably. A BrüMate hard cooler so much more advanced than a traditional cooler, you'll wonder why you ever had the version that's just an empty vessel. This thing has a built-in tap to dispense beverages, a bottle opener in the lid, a dry rack to keep snacks cold but off the ice, wheels, a handle, secure latches, AND it can hold 48 12-oz cans. To make it even better, ice can last inside for *SEVEN* days. Or a smaller Stanley cooler that doubles as a drink dispenser, holds two gallons, and will keep your fave beverages chilled for 13 hours or iced for up to two days. You don't have to worry about any spilling because the top latches securely. Just imagine how cute it would be to fill your emotional support Stanley cup with this cutie cooler. 😍 An ice pop holder with a lil' cup to catch all the drips from running down your little one's arms and a built-in straw to give them an easy way to slurp all the juices so none of the deliciousness goes to waste. A handheld watermelon slicer so you can have delicious, even slices of your fave summer fruit in seconds rather than risking all your fingers trying to cut it with a traditional knife. Beauty Pops, which are basically portable facials in ice pop form. They're made from a blend of turmeric, aloe, papaya, and banana to help de-puff and refresh your skin. And that cooling sensation will feel sooo nice when it's 90 degrees outside and you can't stop sweating. Just don't be tempted and take a bite... A cleverly designed retractable window sunshade because sometimes the summer vibe is just HOT and you need a way to survive getting back into your car that doesn't involve melting your booty on seats that feel like hot lava! A waterproof baby wrap so you can enjoy the pool without worrying about holding on to your kiddo for dear life. This is also great for anyone watching two little ones because you can be hands-free and ready to play with the older one. Now, if you have to have your baby attached to your body, it can at least be while you're cooling off in the pool instead of just having your two sticky, hot, and sweaty bodies smushed together. A Slammo game set if you're not a lay-on-the-beach-and-do-nothing-all-day kind of person. This volleyball-like game will keep the whole beach crew active. Let the games begin! Some mesh food covers to help protect the food you spent hours cooking from little buggers who always like to make an appearance when they smell BBQ sauce.

This Roborock Vacuum and Mop with Docking Station is Now 50% Off, But It's Worth at Least 3 Times This Price
Roborock has established itself as a premium brand within the robot vacuum space with most of its newer models now being offered at more than $1,000 and even some of its best-selling models being above $2,000. Despite this move towards luxury pricing, there are still fantastic deals to be found on units that are feature-rich and incredibly competent—products that were new two years ago and that are still leading the pack in home automation. Roborock Qrevo S is a great case in point, and it offers performance and ease of use equal to far more expensive options. Now, Amazon is offering the Qrevo S for an all-time low of only $459 which is a whopping 43% off its standard $799 list price. It's a bargain that's hard to resist if you're seeking premium cleaning power on a budget. See at Amazon 7,000Pa Suction Power The multi-functional docking station excels with a very hands-off experience for users: the dock automatically washes and dries the mop pads with hot air but it also cleans the robot's dustbin without assistance and refills its water tank as well with the capability to constantly mop areas measuring up to 4,305 square feet. That's seven weeks of hassle-free cleaning with the only upkeep required being the occasional draining of the dock's larger water and dust reservoirs. Its heavy-duty 7,000 Pa suction power is one of the strongest available on the market, and it is capable of pulling hair, dirt and dust out from deeply embedded carpets and hardwood and tile crevices. Its multi-directional floating brush minimizes hair tangling for continuous cleaning effectiveness even in pet- or long-haired-resident households. The vacuum comes with a cutting-edge 10mm auto mop raise mechanism which allows it to seamlessly transition between vacuuming carpets and mopping hard floors without leaving wet marks or dirty streaks. The performance in terms of mopping is equally impressive courtesy of dynamic dual spinning mops that work at a rate of 200 RPM. Combined with 30 adjustable levels of water flow, these mops allow you to customize cleaning intensity for different floor types remotely from the app. You enjoy spotless and streak-free floors that gleam like a pro after every pass. The Qrevo S comes equipped with advanced obstacle avoidance technology powered by PreciSense LiDAR navigation and 3D mapping. At its all-time low price on Amazon, the Qrevo S offers an incredible value proposition. See at Amazon
