When you plug electronics into Amazon’s Smart Plug, you can then control them through its companion app or by using voice commands. For example, I use the smart plug to turn lamps on and off in my apartment instead of manually doing so via a wall switch. The device has a compact size, which frees up outlets above or below it.

I’ve used the Hatch Restore 2, a NBC Select Wellness Award winner, for about a year and it’s revolutionized my sleep. It’s a customizable sunrise alarm clock, noise machine and digital clock. After pairing the device with the Hatch app, you can personalize your rise and rest routines with your choice of sounds and light colors. It also looks nice on nightstands since it’s covered in a linen material and has a minimalist design.

I bring this 18-ounce water bottle with me to workout classes and keep it on my desk all day to stay hydrated. The insulated bottle is made from stainless steel, which keeps my water cold for hours, and it’s practically indestructible — I’ve dropped it more times than I can count and it doesn’t have a single dent. The water bottle is dishwasher-safe and its cap is covered by a screw-on lid with a handle.

The turntable has nonslip feet, which prevent it from moving around when you spin it.
