Magnetic grill lights for all your dad’s late-night burger needs. I too enjoy a midnight cheeseburger soooo maybe I’ll get some for myself.


Amazon

But really though, why isn’t every grill equipped with these from the factory?

Promising review: “These grill lights are exactly what I needed! They light up the area so well. The magnets are strong and the ability to direct the light where needed is great. The package they came in is perfect to store them in when not using! I have recommended these to several people who also think they are great. I was worried they would be cheap and maybe not have a lot of magnetic hold to them, but they do!!” —LC

And to go with it, a stuffed burger press because everything is better with cheese.


Amazon

Promising review: “I love this burger press! Whether it’s to fill with cheese, bacon, jalapenos, or whatever, this is an awesome tool for grilling season! Even if you aren’t interested in stuffed burgers, it helps with making burger patties. Burgers are perfectly sculpted and your hands don’t get completely covered in raw beef. But be sure to spray some Pam inside the press on the walls and the base, otherwise it’s a major pain getting the patty to come loose.” —AGonzales7

Get it from Amazon for $10.99.

A rechargeable electric wine opener that’ll make popping bottles as easy as pressing a button. Sure, your dad loves the traditional wine key but no one enjoys cork in their wine.


amazon.com

Promising review: “I’ve have been looking for a reliable wine bottle opener for my wine bar/cart. This looks very stylish and comes with a nice base. It comes with the foil cutter so you don’t need to purchase anything extra. It stays lit up while it is on the charging base. I guess it doubles as a nightlight. Very easy to use and stays charged for quite a while. I left it off the charger for a few days and it still worked. Would be a great gift for a wine lover.” —Bridget R

amazon.com

Promising review: “In the growing world of growlers this hits the ‘sweet spot’ for me. In addition to just being a rugged, stainless-steel, vacuum-insulated, wide mouth, flip latch with a great rubber seal, it is the handle that has truly been the functional feature that sets it apart from many others. One hand pouring is often very appreciated while also tipping the receiving pint glass with the other hand.” —Doug R.

A desk elliptical to help your WFH father stay active no matter how many Zoom calls he has to suffer through.


Cubii / Via instagram.com

Promising review: “I am so glad I purchased this. I sit at a desk all day, so I am pretty much completely sedentary during work hours. I will use this to keep moving throughout the day and keep my metabolism up. I have a thyroid issue, and I’ve found that I see much better results with shorter more frequent workouts, so this is perfect. I’ll use this at work and at home I have a recumbent bike. It was very easy to put together, and it is whisper quiet. People come into my office and cannot even tell I am using it. Very very sturdy and well constructed. Yes, it’s a little pricey, but it’s worth it. Highly recommend!” —Amy D

A whisky wedge ice mold that will turn his double Old-Fashioned glass into a work of art.


Amazon

Promising review: “We absolutely LOVE these whiskey wedge glasses. They are simple to use, durable, and such a hit at dinner parties and cocktail hour. The wedge stays solid for a very long time and melts at the appropriate pace so as to not water down your drink. The bourbon drinkers around here are very pleased with the water melt ratio in this glass and we have since ordered three more to add to our first purchase! Highly recommend!!” —Haley E.

A multi-use skillet with room to cook a bunch of food at once, so you don’t even have to wake up that early to surprise your dad with breakfast.


Amazon

Promising review: “Now that I have cooked a few meals with this pan I can honestly say that I will no longer be needing all my other pans. It just does it all. Cooking multiple ingredients at the same time and then infusing them together to mix the flavors is something that I have never been able to do before. Keep the pan at a medium heat to always get the best cook because food cook differently and you can take your time in preparing your meal. I recommend this to pretty much anyone that likes to cook and mostly to the ones that dread it!” —Dan S

A Handyman In-Your-Pocket book with all the charts and info any DIYer could hope for. Best of all, it’s small enough to fit in a work shirt.


Amazon

Promising review: “I’m so stoked I found this. Tons of random information that can be referenced. People may say ‘Google it’ but sometimes, Google results can be frustrating as you try to scroll through message board after message board looking for information whereas this you can find the information easily. Great reference tool to have. Had I known that it would regurgitate a great deal of information from the pocket ref, I might have just bought this one alone but, now I have one for the truck and one for home.” —Jeremy R.

Get it from Amazon for $10.75.

29.
