You might want to rethink these gift ideas for Dad.
Get ready to stoke your charcoal grill, don your cargo shorts, and practice your best pun-based jokes. Father’s Day is officially almost here, and it’s time to give the dads in our lives a token of appreciation for all they do.
Instead, get him a coffee-or-tea container that’s much more useful: a Zojirushi, Reviewed’s top travel mug pick, which can keep beverages steaming hot for at least eight hours. This way, dad can bring a piping hot drink with him everywhere he goes—and, if you really want to get the “World’s Best Dad” message across, go ahead and slap a sticker on it.2. A necktie There’s nothing wrong with a tie, of course.
Upgrade dad's shaving game with a safety razor, like the Merkur 23C, which is a favorite of Reviewed's senior staff writer Mark Brezinski. "A straight razor or a moderately sharp battle axe would give a better shave than [insert drugstore brand here]" he says. And, over time, your dad will get a smoother shave for a lot less, as blade refills are significantly cheaper than any plastic refill blade he can buy.
Otherwise, play it safe and get him a grilling-adjacent gift, like a really great cooler. The Rubbermaid 10-Quart model is a classic for a reason, with long-lasting thermal retention, an easy-to-clean interior, and a lid that actually stays put. He can keep meat food-safe before the hungry masses arrive and have cold beverages at the ready all day when hanging out on the deck, grilling with all the supplies people have gotten him in previous years.
“I switched to a front pocket wallet awhile back and it's life-changing for me, but if I got one for my dad, it would absolutely never get used,” says T.J. Donegan, Reviewed’s executive editor. “He is a Costanza wallet lifer.”
