27 Cozy Nordstrom Home Products
A Smeg mini electric kettle because let's start with the basics: properly relaxing around the house requires VAST amounts of hot tea. This adorable, vintage-inspired kettle will get up to three cups of water boiling ultra-fast, so you can whip up a mug of Constant Comment ASAP. Promising review: "This little kettle is the perfect size! Heats up quickly and looks so nice on my counter. I get so many compliments on it. Highly recommend!" —manda mariePrice: $149.95 (available in six colors) A Barefoot Dreams throw so you can wrap yourself in an internet-famous blanket that's next-level cozy as you sip that tea. Its machine-washable microfiber is so soft, it has over 900 5-star reviews on Nordstrom alone — yes, people really are this passionate about a blanket! Wrap yourself up in one and you'll surely find out why. Promising review: "Obsessed. So soft and high quality. I have several of these now because I love them so much. So warm and cozy and soft. They hold up still after many washes. So luxurious and comfy!" —Rachel0291Price: $180 The Always Pan by Our Place in stainless steel with a titanium interior — it's 300% harder than standard stainless steel, which means you're not just buying another pan... you're basically buying a lifelong kitchen companion. This pan sautes, bakes, fries, steams, roasts, boils, sears, and more — eliminating tons of other cookware (and your need to leave the house in order to get a delicious snack). Price: $165 A Wi-Fi–enabled scent diffuser so you can create the perfect sweet-smelling space without lifting a finger... okay, fine, you have to lift one finger. Using the app, you can switch fragrances, set up timers, and turn it on/off whenever you feel you've finally got your ideal scentscape. Price: $79.99 A Terra Kaffe smart espresso machine because yes, we'd all prefer a fancy British butler bring us coffee in bed, but this is a close second. The Wi-Fi–enabled machine will brew up not just drip coffee, but thousands of custom coffee creations including lattes, macchiatos, and flat whites, all just with a few taps of the app. It's like living INSIDE a coffee shop (except no one is loudly taking a work call on speaker). BuzzFeed editor Heather Braga is obsessed with this machine: "This machine seems too good to be true, TBH. It has a dedicated heating element just for steam and a precision frothing dial to let you make your foam *exactly* as you like it (and you can use ANY milk with it!). You can create a customized drink menu — the machine will remember how you want your coffee! That's more than I can say for most of the chain coffee shops I've been to. The best part is that you can use ANY coffee you'd like with it. It's a splurge, but will definitely be worthwhile and has been saving me money since I've been drinking coffee at home. My husband is a coffee snob who typically handcrafts his own espresso drinks in the morning, but even he was impressed with this machine. It's got his seal of approval and CERTAINLY has mine. We have two kids under the age of 3 and, admittedly, use this machine several times a day." Price: $1,995 (available in white and black) And a pair of double-walled glass mugs to sip said coffee in. Unlike your traditional ceramic mug, a double-walled glass mug stays cool to the touch while keeping your bev warmer for longer. Sounds ideal for a long morning hanging out in bed, thinking about leaving the house but eventually deciding... nah. Promising review: "Perfect coffee/tea mug set! Keeps hot or cold and no sweat or slipping. I love it!" —OlderPrice: $34.99 A Hatch Restore 3 that has everything you need to get some seriously sweet dreams going: it's a sound machine, sunrise alarm, and has a wind-down routine that I particularly recommend if you tend to start watching funny videos to relax before bed... and then accidentally let it go on for two hours. (Am I speaking from personal experience? Of course not, how dare you!) Promising review: "iPhone alarms are heart attack-inducing. With Hatch, I wake up softer and easier to the sound of busy streets or birds chirping. The rain sound also put me to sleep more easily because my mind is active before I fall asleep. You have to be willing to put your phone down and unwind." —CatchowsPrice: $169.99 (available in three colors) A Maison Margiela candle, for those of us who are dying to try one of the brand's scents, but are looking for something with a bit of a lower price point. Fill your home with the smell of iris, patchouli, lily of the valley... honestly, sounds like a pretty great Sunday morning. Promising review: "This candle smells so good I just can't get enough of it!! Love it!!" —Spanky67Price: $39+ (available in two sizes) A chenille comforter set that will make you truly not want to get out of bed... but isn't that kind of nice, sometimes? Promising reviews: "Super comfy, warm, and so pretty!" —dg237"I don't think I've been this pleased with a purchase in a long time. This comforter is such an awesome texture and fabric. It is gorgeous, it is comfortable, and it looks a lot better in person than it does in the pictures. I'm in love with this thing." —littlemisslalaPrice: $185+ (available in sizes Twin–King and two colors) And a Nodpod weighted sleep mask because it's the closest you can get to ordering a few extra hours sleep. The weighted eye mask targets pressure points to help you relax, while the mask blocks light (and makes it impossible to look at your phone — key for peak relaxation). Read more about acupressure and stress at Cleveland review: "I have trouble falling asleep after I wake up (or get woken up) in the middle of the night. I also deal with ambient light issues from my neighbor's security lights. This sleep mask really helps me to rest when I need to. I don't necessarily fall back asleep, but it helps me relax, not toss and turn, and I feel more rested when I get up. It also helps you stay asleep/restful during sunrise as it totally blocks the light. I am not a sleep mask person; I have never used a sleep mask regularly or kept one by my pillow. I almost flipped out last night when I wanted to use it and couldn't find it. It had fallen behind the bed, but I couldn't rest until I retrieved it. I also have dry eye, and I think this indirectly helps with it by preventing me from opening my eyes or being affected by airflow." —inkonapinPrice: $34 (available in five colors) A mug and warmer set for anyone who spends roughly nine hours savoring that first (or fifth) cup of coffee every day. The coaster heats up to around 130 degrees, keeping your drink toasty for however long you need it. And when the hot beverage part of your day is over (if it is ever over), the coaster then doubles as a wireless phone or earbud charger. Promising review: "I have tried several self-heating mugs — this one is the best!" —JuicelovePrice: $98 A six-piece set of pastel Staub ceramic bowls that will basically feel like a lil' rainbow in your kitchen. Price: $79.99 A bamboo bath caddy bundle so you can update your tub time from a basic bath to a next-level relaxation experience. The expandable caddy has dedicated spots for your phone, book or tablet, wineglass and even a scented candle — plus, the bundle comes with nine scented bath bombs *and* scented shower gel, shampoo, and bubble bath. So there's basically zero steps between "open package" and "have the most relaxing soak of your life." Price: $67.49 (originally $89.99) A natural insect repellent for folks who love backyard hangs, but hate stinky chemical insect repellents AND insects who want to feast upon your precious flesh. This uses essential oils to repel insects while it moisturizes your skin, so you'll not only be able to enjoy dinner al fresco bug bite-free; you'll also be more hydrated. Talk about range! Price: $38 A combination air fryer/toaster that also bakes, roasts, reheats and broils... basically, it does everything short of tucking a napkin under your chin and saying "Bon appetit." Promising reviews: "I love everything about the Wonder Oven! I purchased the spice color for my beach house rental. It's compact, has a great style and is quite unique. It's also easy to use and understand. The steam feature is an extra added bonus. The inside is mirror shiny, and the pan matches the exterior. Easy to clean and will probably resist rust at the beach house."—OceansideCAPrice: $225 A set of four 100% cotton bath towels so you can finally toss away those ratty things you've had since your very first apartment. You deserve to have a moment of soft, fluffy comfort while you're hurrying through your morning routine. The set comes with two hand towels and two body review: "LOVE these thick, soft, and thirsty towels! They feel so nice to use and look beautiful and welcoming hanging on hooks, or folded on a shelf. So glad I got these during the sale — needed a bathroom refresh, and these are so nice to have, I came back for a second set in another color!" —Kday111Price: $109 for four towels (available in three colors) An ultra-modern and minimalist USB desk lamp with charging capabilities that looks so sleek and chic, I can't believe it's also super practical? Is this legal?? Price: $99.99 A Casper dog bed because you want your furry lil' baby to relax in comfort just like you do. This memory foam bed is supportive for aging dogs and young pups alike; the bolster will make Fido feel safe and secure, and the top area has excess fabric that feels like loose earth (!!) when they paw at it. The only thing sweeter would be if you two kicked back in matching pajamas. Promising review: "I physically have to pick my dog up out of this bed to make her do anything other than nap. Three years old and now her favorite thing to do is sleep in the only dog bed she's ever loved." —AnonymousPrice: $139+ (available in two sizes and two colors) A pure silk pillowcase that won't just help keep your your hair from tangling, breaking, or frizzing — it also feels great to lay down on. Plop your head down on one of these soft, sleek pillowcases at night and try not to feel like total royalty. Promising review: "So glad I bought this pillowcase. It really works to keep my hair smooth while I sleep. It is also very soft and cozy." —Brentwood MomPrice: $89+ (available in two sizes and 10 colors) A Bearaby knit weighted blanket for folks who love the idea of a weighted blanket, but don't love the way a typical quilted or fleece option looks. This soft cotton blanket is machine washable, and fits in with decor styles from coastal to boho, so it's exactly like your old knit blanket... except this one will melt your stress away like a pat of warm buttah. Promising review: "My husband and I have had trouble sleeping lately and have considered weighted blankets since they have been so popular. We have researched the different types and brands, but hesitancy has lingered. I was especially concerned about being too hot. With my husband's birthday approaching, I decided to bite the bullet and get him one. The reviews were great, and I liked how these woven blankets looked and how they were more breathable. We liked it right away and have had the best sleep ever. I normally wake up several times a night, but haven't with this blanket so far. We will need a bigger one or at least one for each of us, including our dog. :)" —DivingButterflyPrice: $199+ (available in four weights and four colors) A vintage-inspired Bluetooth speaker that's made by Marshall, the same company that makes your favorite band's amps — and it'll bring that same rockin' sound quality to your humble abode. Promising review: "Works great! The sound is great and looks nice and sleek." —Tlee44Price: $279.99 (available in three colors) A tabletop facial steamer so you can open up your pores for deeper cleaning and hydration — yep, you can do all that with just some heated-up water! No need to venture out to a spa or esthetician; you can treat your pores while also watching Only Murders in the Building. Price: $159 A pair of handblown speckled glass tumblers that make every meal feel like a party (even if all you're drinking is some tap water that's been left out on the table for an hour). Price: $49.99 A pair of faux-fur slippers because really, are you even hanging around the house if you aren't doing it in a big pair of fuzzy slippers? These platform shearling slides with a cushioned insole will keep your toesies warm and supported. Promising review: "These are amazing. Buy them. They are SO comfortable. They bounce as I walk and my back pain has gotten better. They are super warm. I'm obsessed. I've only worn shearling slippers since I was young, and these are the BEST I've EVER put on my foot. I'm a new Olukai fan." —RuthPrice: $130 (available in women's sizes 5–11 and two colors) A handblown oil and vinegar cruet with cork stoppers that will make you go, "Hey, am I in my kitchen, or am I in a high-end restaurant where they're about to serve me a big pile of crusty bread and list off the evening's drink specials?" (Nope, you're in your kitchen. A high-end restaurant wouldn't have that many unwashed Cap'n Crunch bowls sitting in it). Promising review: "Beautiful. I am going to use it for display, looks really nice with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Delicate." —Taylor RPrice: $24.99 A luxurious tasseled velvet throw pillow to add a pop of color to your couch, chair, bed... basically, wherever you do your lounging. Price: $45 A Le Creuset bread oven, because simply nothing says "having cozy home times, please do not disturb" like freshly baked bread. This cast-iron domed oven will trap steam, evenly distribute heat, and help you bake some truly delicious carbs. Promising reviews: "I know this is going to be a wonderful addition to my kitchen. I had been looking at a bread maker but I am glad I didn't buy one. This is much smaller and fits in a cabinet perfectly." —VigguiPrice: $300 (available in nine colors)

Australia just got the air fryer to end all air fryers, and it's already backed by Gwyneth Paltrow, Beckham and Cameron Diaz
The Wonder Oven has officially arrived in Australia, and it's already got the stamp of approval from Gwyneth Paltrow, Cameron Diaz and David Beckham. This isn't just another appliance cluttering your benchtop. known for turning everyday cooking tools into beautiful, multifunctional must-haves, has launched its first-ever appliance Down Under, and it's set to completely change the way Aussies cook at home. Compact but powerful, the Wonder Oven is a 6-in-1 machine that air fries, bakes, roasts, grills, toasts and steams. With a sleek design and four stylish colour options, it's as much a statement piece as it is a time-saving kitchen workhorse. What makes it different? For starters, it's fast. The Wonder Oven preheats up to 75 per cent quicker than traditional ovens and cooks up to 30 per cent faster. That means less standing around, more actual eating. It's also roomy, with double the capacity of a standard air fryer. You can roast a two-kilo chicken or cook two layers at once, making dinner for the family (or your Sunday meal prep) a total breeze. Then there's the steam infusion function, the quiet hero of the Wonder Oven. It wraps your food in a wave of moisture while crisping the outside, which means perfectly golden chips, bakery-style bread, and juicy roasts that stay tender. Even day-old sourdough gets a second chance. Healthy cooking without the nasties. While most air fryers are made with PFAS (forever chemicals linked to health risks), the Wonder Oven is proudly non-toxic. Like all Our Place products, it's made with safe, clean materials, so you can cook for your family without the worry. And because it uses less oil and delivers better flavour faste r, it's ideal for anyone who wants to eat well without fuss. Whether you're baking salmon, air-frying tofu, or reheating last night's pizza, the results are healthier and tastie r. Sleek, smart, and hard to mess up Like everything Our Place makes, the Wonder Oven is designed to make your life easier. It's built with smart cooking hacks so even total kitchen rookies can nail a perfect roast. The controls are simple, the clean-up is quick, and the design is so aesthetic you'll actually want to leave it out on the bench. It's available now in four colours, Spice, Char, Blue Salt and Steam, for $289.

We tested 3 titanium pans to find out which ones are worth the money
Gone are the days of picking between cast iron and stainless steel — now the cookware market is saturated with options. We have tested the best cookware extensively, so we know when a new product is actually novel. That's why we got our hands on three pieces of titanium cookware. I tested the three top-rated titanium pans to see how they held up against more traditional forms of cookware. In essence, they perform like a hybrid of nonstick and stainless steel, with great heat conductivity and a slicker surface than uncoated steel. Our Place's Titanum Always Pan Pro won my top spot because of its incredible versatility and ability to distribute heat across its base. It has a patterned interior that transforms into a nonstick surface with the right heat application. Our top-rated titanium pans Best overall Our Place is a BI Reviews team favorite. The original Always Pan is the top pick in our best ceramic cookware guide. With the Titanium Always Pan Pro, the DTC brand took inspiration from a lotus leaf, which has nanostructures that transform it into a water-repellant finish. The pan has a pattern pressed into its titanium surface that grants it hydrophobic and semi-nonstick properties. There's a learning curve to properly heat the pan before introducing ingredients, but once I got the hang of it, the surface was effectively nonstick. I particularly appreciated the Pro when searing; it produces perfectly golden, crispy crusts that release effortlessly from the pan. This ability to smoothly go from, say, scrambled eggs to frying up a pork chop is largely due to the tri-ply construction. Using three metals — aluminum, stainless steel, and titanium — creates a tough and heat-conductive piece of cookware. Out of the three titanium pans I tested, the Always Pan Pro handled the oven the best. It heated evenly across the surface and produced level bakes and roasted edges. I will note that this pan is the heaviest I tested, which made it difficult to move around the kitchen. However, I found its weight a price I was willing to pay for its size (it holds a larger volume than others tested) and top-notch heat conductivity and retention. Best splurge Even if I didn't know the brand or price, I could tellHestan's NanoBond is a luxury pan. The detailed craftsmanship is functional and aesthetically pleasing: gently sloping sides, an angled handle, and a lustrous finish. During testing, these details made a difference, especially the ergonomic handle. The center divet and upward angle made it the easiest to grip and transport around the kitchen. Hestan's NanoBond Titanium Stainless Steel cookware is made by bonding blended titanium and chromium-based alloy layers onto a stainless steel body. If this sounds indestructible, we can confirm that it nearly is. The surface is ultra-durable and stood up to serious wear and tear; I'm talking heavy-duty, abrasive scrubbing, cutting directly on the pan's surface, and using metal utensils while cooking. Not a scratch on it. While the interior is shiny and smooth to the touch, it's not nonstick. I found this Hestan to be reminiscent of a traditional stainless steel skillet in that it consistently requires a high-preheated surface or a hefty amount of fat to prevent sticking. Additionally, the NanoBond interior tends to retain a visual imprint of whatever food was last cooked on it. I noticed an almost rainbow-esque colored marking that I got rid of with a splash of vinegar after hand-washing. Aesthetics aside, I was impressed by how well the thick base retained heat evenly across the pan's surface. There was no fear of hot spots, and cooking across the stovetop and oven was seamless. Best for beginners At first glance, the Flavortown pan looks and feels like nonstick cookware. It functions just like one with a slick surface that easily releases food. Instead of being covered in ceramic or traditional nonstick coating, the Guy Fieri pan features titanium atop a hard-anodized aluminum body. Just like with the Hestan and Always Pan, using a laser to bond titanium alloy onto the pan's surface allows the pan to tolerate higher temperatures and creates a more durable interior. I found the pan easy to handle — it weighs less than the other pans I tried, and the handle was comfortable to hold. In terms of performance, the Flavortown pan slightly underperformed. The bottom of the food cooks more quickly than the interiors, a sign that the pan is prone to overheating and uneven heat distribution. There weren't burn spots, and after a few uses, I figured out that this pan works best over medium heat, even if the recipe calls for high. It's also extremely easy to clean. Whether you pop it in the dishwasher or run a sponge over its surface, food debris slides right off. For a fraction of the price of the others we tested, the Flavortown pan is more competent and cooks better than my traditional nonstick pans. How we test titanium cookware During testing, I identified four key attributes: heat conductivity, heat retention, nonstick properties, and ergonomic ease of use. Cooking: I cooked the same ingredients in each pan on the same heat and compared the results. This showed which pan cooked the quickest and heated evenly. I also used the cooking tests to evaluate how much preheating a pan needed to develop a nonstick surface. Durability: I scrubbed each pan with abrasive sponges and used metal utensils during cooking. I also used the pans under a broiler and noted how they performed in high-heat ovens. Ergonomics: As I cooked and cleaned, I considered the weight and handle dimensions of the pans. Heavier pans can be difficult to move from the stovetop to the oven, but often have better heat retention. All three pans had handles between 8 and 8.5 inches long, which kept my hand away from the heat without making it hard to wield. Titanium in cookware Titanium is exceptionally lightweight, durable, and scratch-resistant. We're seeing it pop up in cookware as an alternative to stainless steel and to strengthen nonstick coatings. All titanium pots and pans are bonded with other metals, layered or fused with aluminum or stainless steel. Clad cookware gives you the benefits of multiple materials — for example, pairing lightweight and highly conductive aluminum with the strength of titanium. Not every titanium pan looks the same; in fact, the surfaces of these pans vary more in aesthetic and technological construction than stainless steel or nonstick cookware might. Our Place, for example, has an almost hexagonal pattern dappled across its interior, where Flavortown's pan mimics a smooth nonstick. What is titanium nonstick cookware? The last innovation in the best nonstick cookware was the introduction of ceramic coatings. Now, titanium is being used in nonstick coatings as a strengthening agent. Ideally, this results in slick surfaces that are less likely to chip or scratch and, therefore, be thrown away. However, titanium in itself is not nonstick, so the surface may not be as slick or require cooking over a higher heat to prevent sticking.
