Simplehuman consistently designs the best products in its categories. I love their dual trash and recycling bin with a compost bin that hooks on the side. Yes, the products are expensive but the quality and design are just better. When I've bought cheaper imitators, their products pale in comparison and don't endure.

Feedback

Occasionally, Simplehuman design can veer into austerity but for the most part their products are a perfect marriage of form and function.

I only buy chocolate bars from Hu so I can't attest to their full assortment but the chocolate is amazing - simple, high quality ingredients and remarkably low sugar given how delicious they are. They feel like a treat without over-indulging. I especially love the Almond Butter Dark Chocolate and Hazelnut Coffee Dark Chocolate.

Feedback

This chocolate has a more premium price tag but it's worth it.

I will love Birkenstocks forever and always. In recent years, they have chic styles but I find their classic styles enduring. Quality is incredible. I had a pair of Birkenstocks for 10 years that remained in good shape. They're also very comfortable.

Feedback

Birkenstock's are worth investing in as a footwear staple.

I wasn't a Lululemon fan until I bought the Align Yoga Pants as maternity leggings. They are amazing. They've stretched with me from the beginning of pregnancy to the end and retained their color and shape through SO many washings. I'm very impressed by the comfort and quality.

Feedback

I definitely recommend the Align Leggings for maternity wear. The other items are very high quality too.

Prose

I had been curious about Prose for a couple of years and finally invested. I think custom is a bit of a stretch as it seems they produce a few stock formulas. I wasn't wowed by performance and definitely didn't feel like Prose fit my hair needs more than other hair products I've used.

Feedback

If you're intrigued by the customization, give it a shot but don't expect amazing results. The results are solid.

Everlane is tried and true for basics. I found their quality to be better in the early days than now but I still go to them for my t-shirts, which are always well cut and well priced. I'm less enthused about their sweaters and other items in recent years.

Feedback

If you're looking for basics at an affordable price, Everlane is great.

Love the inventive flavors and bright branding from De La Calle. I'm usually not a fan of fake sugar but somehow, the blend of flavors masks the erythritol.

Feedback

Tepache is one of the most fun low sugar, sparkling drinks on the market. Check it out if you're adventurous about flavor.

OLIPOP

I do not understand the hype here but I also dislike artificial sweeteners. The taste is OK but the stevia is strong, for me.

Feedback

Nice branding and good for those who don't mind stevia.

I bought their maternity suit and it is definitely the best of a less than exciting category - comfortable, cute, high quality.

Feedback

These suits are cute well for all shapes and sizes.

Delicious ice cream that paved the way for other brands. I've bought Jeni's for over a decade. So many others have followed in their footsteps with creative flavors and high quality ingredients but Jeni's still shines. I especially love their Brambleberry Crisp and Salted Peanut BUtter.

Feedback

Worth the splurge!
