This gift is about to make their whole world feel like a musical. An electric food dehydrator that'll quickly prove it's worth the counter space. This'll make dried fruit, jerky, fruit leather, and *memories* with the touch of a button. Pro tip: if you get your dad this, make sure he tries dehydrated raspberries. They turn into the texture of astronaut ice cream and I'm obsessed. A 10-motor massage mat with two heating pads and vibration settings, so your tired pa can turn his favorite seat into the massage chair his aching back wants and needs. A stuffed waffle maker — this applause-worthy appliance is designed with a deep, bowl-like griddle that allows users to cook the batter with fillings (we're talking chocolate, fruit, cheese, works). Upgrade Dad's morning routine from frozen waffles to a homemade meal, sure to look straight off a "best of" brunch menu. An inflatable beach pillow designed not to blow away *and* with a slot to insert a cooling gel pack. If your dad grumbles about family days at the beach, this gift is sure to help him sleep the day away in comfort.

Reviewers say this is light enough to easily move out of the way and that the drawers are removable as well, which sounds spiffy!

And a playmat shirt with roads connecting a small city together — perfectly sized for their kiddo's toy cars! Give the young father in your life the gift of a quick nap with this silly shirt. They can lie down while their kids play "back street" for ages! Results worth applauding — any dad to young kids would tell you that. A salt shooter so your dad can enjoy his summer by spending his free time hunting the world's most dangerous pesky housefly. A smokeless portable fire pit for dads who think a campfire sounds nice, in theory. You know, as long as there isn't much of that pesky smoke. Plus, the 360-degree Airflow design guarantees a perfect flame, even if your dad's fire-making skills aren't exactly going on his resume anytime soon. A Grandeur Maine Lobster tail that'll be such a shockingly great gift, your father might find it *fishy* that you got it for him.

My husband is the cook in our home, and after first using the Organic EVOO olive oil he became a loyal fan of Frankies 457. Their olive oils and pasta are our go-to choices when making meals for guests (when we want to feel fancy). The everyday olive oil is delicious, and we *genuinely* use it on everything.

Read more about how to choose a weight and what these blankets help with and how from Cleveland review: "Previous weighted blankets I've tried were too hot to use in warmer weather and made it difficult to move in my sleep, which I do. The wide open knit of the Tree Napper provides excellent airflow and flexes to allow me freedom of movement without sacrificing the weight of the blanket itself. I love it." —Meredith the blanket for $239+ (available in four weights and five colors) and the pillow for $29+ (available in three sizes and five colors).

And, ahem, feed *you* delicious homemade pizza. Thanks, Dad. A digital photo frame — get your dad a frame, connect him to the app, and you and your family can all share photos no matter how far apart you all live nowadays. A set of cooling sheets "made specifically for men" (who are said to tend to sleep hotter) to keep your dad cool when you've done something to make his temperature rise. A pair of binoculars for scoping out some fun feathered friends way up high, or for getting a glimpse of the view ahead if he gets too tired to finish the hike he goes on. TBH, clever. A game-changing AI-powered smartphone stabilizer so he can capture outdoor photos and videos with seamless, cinematic shots.

20 Amazon Items That Make Perfect Father's Day Gifts
A pair of fondue mugs for your dad who lives for a sweet treat at the end of the day. Think of this as a fancy upgrade to their usual eating-ice-cream-out-the-tub dessert. If they don't like chocolate, though, they can totally use this for a cheese fondue moment! An LED fog-less mirror is perfect if your dad enjoys shaving their beard while the shower's steam is still going! This mirror also has a nifty light to ensure your dad reaches every square inch during their grooming routine. A silicone clip-on strainer that fits onto most of the pots and pans in your dad's kitchen. This will be their go-to for straining pasta, collecting bacon fat, or washing fruits and veggies. A MacBook shortcut keyboard cover, just in case you're not always available to play Genius Bar tech for your dad! This fits onto MacBook keyboards and will tell your dad each and every key they'll have to press for things like opening search bars, screenshotting, or mimizing windows. A pickle keeper and juice strainer that's the most beautiful (to your dad) hourglass known to man. All your dad has to do is flip this container over to separate pickles from its brine while they snack away without dipping their hands into salty, vinegary water. Once they're done with their amuse-bouche, they can flip over the container again to combine the brine and pickles. A Philips Sonicare 6100 electric toothbrush, because your dad has been using the same frayed manual toothbrush forever and needs an upgrade. This one has three brushing modes to help improve gum health and reduce cavities, and a sensor that goes off if your dad accidentally applies too much pressure while brushing. This nifty rechargeable toothrbush has a 14-day battery life, meaning no more jumbled cords on your dad's bathroom counter! Promising review: "I'm absolutely thrilled with the Philips Sonicare ProtectiveClean 6100 Whitening! It delivers exceptional performance, and the design and color are gorgeous — it looks sleek and stylish on my bathroom counter. The brush works wonders for my teeth, leaving them feeling clean and smooth after every use. I've noticed a significant improvement in the whiteness of my teeth as well. The pressure sensor is a great feature, and the different modes allow for a customizable brushing experience. Highly recommend this toothbrush for anyone looking for great performance and stunning design!" —AdamPrice: $109.96+ (available in four colors) A copy of Horizontal Parenting for the toddler dad who can't seem to catch a break from running around! This book contains 50 games that a dad can play with their kid that require almost little to no movement on their part — a welcome gift after long, stressful days! A Windmill air purifier, because your dad has every cleaning gadget for their floors and furniture — but what about their air? This compact-but-powerful purifier uses a HEPA-13 filter to trap 99.97% of particles like dust, pollen, and pet dander. It has a real-time air quality monitor and runs so quietly that your dad will actually be able to have it on as they sleep! Promising review: "10/10 worth the money. Extremely quiet. Easy to set up via the app and connect to home Wi-Fi with the QR Code. Makes a difference in the air quality and provides updates immediately if there is a change to the air quality.

Easy to clean and has great functionality and speed levels." —ChristyPrice: $299+ (available in three colors) A grater with a built-in container so your dad can make their world-renowned mac and cheese without having remnants of their meal all over the kitchen counter. A silicone foot scrubber that's like an actual spa trip for your dad's feet. While this scrubber feels like a foot massage that they can tap into every day, it also helps to clean hard-to-reach areas like rough heels and in between the toes. A peanut butter knife, because your dad can't IMAGINE having his morning protein shakes without some peanuts. They can use this to scoop out every last drop and get their money's worth. (Nut butters ain't cheap!) A bead-filled weighted eye mask is like a weighted blanket but for your dad's eyes. Its strap-free, four-pod design helps to add soothing pressure and block out light during bedtime or a midday power nap. A set of writing dice so that your dad can finally put all their stories of the good ole' days onto paper! If they're ever in a writing rut, they can use these dice to help build up the who's, what's, where's, when's, why's, and how's for characters, plot, settings, and even themes! TBH, as a writer myself, these are already sitting pretty in my own Amazon cart. A "flaming" humidifier, because although your dad can't live out his dreams of retiring to a cabin in the woods juuuust yet, they can at least bring the cozy vibes to their current home. This helps to keep the air comfortable and moist while creating a homey ambience instantly. An electric pressure washer, if your dad's idea of fun is blasting grime off the driveway (and honestly, same). It's got enough pressure to clean patios, stone pathways, and even siding, turning every Saturday into their version of spa day. A hand massager, because who wouldn't want a knot-relieving hand massage after a long day of typing?! This massager uses heat, air pressure, and four kneading heads to help relieve pain and discomfort in your dad's digits. Promising review: "This little hand massager is PERFECT for my hands. I have rheumatoid arthritis and nerve pain in my hands pretty often, and the only thing that usually relieves it is massaging them (which is difficult to do on my own). I was super impressed with this little guy as soon as I first tried it. I love that it has different settings to use, depending on the kind of pain I'm having and the location on my hand. Love the two heat settings! Love that it has a 15-minute timer where it shuts off because I can fall asleep with it on my hand. It really is the only thing that's helped me with my unbearable hand pain. Give it a try!" —CBPrice: $68.98+ (available in four colors) Plus, a 10-motor massage mat for those days when all your dad needs is to relaaaaax. This mat has two heating pads *and* it vibrates, so all they'll have to do is lie on this mat to warm up any kinks in their back and soothe their sore muscles. Promising review: "I've had several massage mats and this one is great. It has a nice comfortable soft foam pillow feel so you don't feel like you're sitting on the massage motors. And it's so quiet, you hardly hear it yet the massagers are quite powerful. I highly recommend this one." —TJ FerraraPrice: $89.99 A Bluetooth sleep headband, because your your dad can only sleep in the complete dark and silence! They can put this on and play soothing sounds to create a relaxing vibe (or enjoy this headband's noise-canceling feature), completely light-free. Promising review: "These were so noise-canceling it was amazing. I went on a Disney World trip with my family, and my dad snores a lot. My mom, my sister, and I all use these, and they totally blocked out the sound! They are so comfortable, and they Bluetooth connect to your phone! Would buy again!" —KKleinPrice: $15.99+ (available in 20 colors) A ButterBox that's airtight and looks cute as heck. This is great for people who like to spread butter straight from the stick (hello, buttery corn lovers and pan greasers) but HATE getting their fingers messy during the process. This also has a cool upright storage feature that saves tons of space in the fridge! Promising review: "I bought the ButterBox as a gift for my foodie brother, and he absolutely loved it! You can place just the right amount of butter on your foods. This will definitely be the go-to gift for all the foodies in my life!" —DallasPrice: $29.95 And a grilling spice set, because it's the ideal gift for your grilling dad —whether they're a novice or a pro! These spices work well with meat, veggies, or fish. Plus, they come in smaller sizes so that your dad can test out different flavors without crowding their cupboard. Promising review: "This is perfect for grilling lovers or even beginners! They're perfect trial sizes to determine what you love and don't! I recommend!" —averyPrice: $39.99
