For slow, warm evenings

GODONLIF Candle Warmer Lamp

Best for someone who loves candles but forgets to blow them out.

  • A small lamp that melts the top of a jar candle from above, so the scent fills the room without a flame.
  • Has a timer, a dimmer, and an adjustable height for different jar sizes.

One thing to check

The lamp uses a bulb that gets hot. Check the jar sizes it fits, and keep it out of reach of kids and pets.

Sunbeam Royal Ultra Fleece Heated Throw

Best for movie nights and cold evenings on the sofa.

  • A fleece throw with 4 heat settings and a 4-hour auto shut-off.
  • In Consumer Reports’ February 2026 test of heated blankets, the Sunbeam Royal Ultra came out on top; the testers noted its heating wires are easier to see than in some rivals.
