M.o.r.e. Cabin

Suspended in the trees of a forest in Quebec, the M.o.r.e. Cabin gives forest-dwelling a sustainable redesign. The home is comprised of a volume clad in low-waste cross-laminated timber. To prevent disruption to the land, it's perched on a steel mast and cantilevering over a hillside, preserving the native flora and affording views over the lake. The mast is held in place by a single concrete footing, minimizing the need for concrete and the project's carbon footprint, and is fitted with bat bods to house the area's endangered brown bats. Operating entirely off-grid, the house is powered by solar units and makes use of breezes and cross-ventilation for cooling, while a high-efficiency "green carbon" wood stove provides heat.

Solo Stove Mesa

Portable and smokeless, the Solo Stove Mesa brings the cozy atmosphere of a campfire to more intimate outdoor gatherings. The compact fireplace is lightweight and easy to transport to tabletops, allowing you to take the ambiance with you. Ideal for s'mores, it can be fueled with pellets (using the included adapter) or small pieces of wood, while the brand's signature 360º Airflow Technology brings either fuel type to flame in moments. For a larger crowd, the Mesa XL takes the outdoor tabletop versatility of the original Mesa to the next level, offering more heat, a longer burn time, and a built-in pellet adapter.

S7 Max Ultra & Roborock Easy-to-use App

Many people are neglecting cleaning around their homes due to their busy schedules. But what if it were as easy as checking your social media?

Biofire Smart Gun

Having a gun for home defense can be a good idea — but they need to be securely stored for safety's sake, making them less effective as a self-defense tool than they should be. Biofire is out to change that with its Smart Gun that's always locked but instantly accessible with the owner's biometrics. This 9mm firearm uses an integrated fingerprint and 3D facial recognition system to only unlock if whoever is holding it is authorized to use it, preventing tragic outcomes from a criminal, or worse yet, a child. The system is powered by a high-endurance internal battery that charges on the included Smart Dock, allowing you to leave the gun connected or keep it unplugged in a drawer, closet, or car with the confidence it will be ready when you need it for months at a time.

Roborock Q Revo

For its latest offering, Roborock amped up the mopping system. The Q Revo features new dual liftable spinning mops that polish floors at 200 rpm high. There's no need to remove the mop heads. When the robot detects carpet, the mops automatically lift, and the upgraded 5,500 Pa vacuum kick in. Smart reactive tech ensures the device avoids and detects obstacles when in use, while its intelligent mapping system allows owners to create no-go zones and fast cleaning options in the app. After each clean, the Q Revo returns to its docking station, where it empties, washes, refills, and dries the device all on its own for a truly hands-off experience.
