Once the temps drop below 40 degrees Fahrenheit, all I want to do is get cozy in every sense of the word. Plush throws on the couch, woodsy candles aflame, and hearty, soul-warming meals in the kitchen.
When it comes to cooking up dishes that fall decidedly into the comfort food category, there’s no better accessory than a slow cooker. It’ll help you braise meats to perfection, cook up flavor-packed soups, and even mix up the most buttery mashed potatoes. The best part? They’re often totally hands-off, with set-it-and-forget-it features that allow you to go about your day without another thought towards what’s on the menu for dinner. Here at The Kitchn, we’ve been rounding up the best slow cookers for years — and one of our absolute favorites happens to be on sale right now for Cyber Monday.
The slow cooker in question is the 6-quart Temp Tracker from Hamilton Beach, which has all the bells and whistles cozy food lovers could ask for. Not only does it cook food evenly for the perfect finish every time, but it comes with a temperature tracking probe, which can be inserted into whatever you’re making (think: a chicken or beef roast) to ensure you hit the mark when it comes to that fall-off-the-bone goodness slow cookers are known for.
Hamilton Beach’s gadget has tons of other useful features too, from a convenient countdown timer display (no more answering those pesky “When is dinner ready?” questions) to a variety of temperatures aimed at helping you ace everything from sous vide fish to chocolate fondue. Oh, and if you’re traveling for the holiday season and want to bring your famous green bean casserole, you’re in luck — Hamilton Beach’s slow cooker has a clip-tight lid that will deliver your dish sans spills.
Between now and 12/4, as part of the brand’s Cyber Week sale, you can score 20 percent off the Hamilton Beach Temp Tracker Slow Cooker with the code CYBER21. The typical price ($69.99) is already pretty budget-friendly, so this is basically a steal you don’t want to miss. Even if you don’t plan on cooking a ton this holiday season, we’re pretty certain you’ll find yourself relying heavily on this gadget long before January is over. Long live cozy season!

Made of the famous Staub glass porcelain-enamel finish, this baking dish will look gorgeous whether resting on your stovetop or served on your table. The enamel glaze also prevents your dish from absorbing moisture, which in turn avoids dried-out food or a stained finish. What we really love about this dish is how versatile it would be in your kitchen — use it for gooey brownies, apple crisp, baked mac and cheese, potatoes gratin, and so much more. It’ll be the ultimate dish for the holidays, perfect for desserts and delicious sides!
The ceramic lid will come in handy all the time, whether you’re roasting or keeping food warm on the table. It even allows for easy storage whether you’re cooking ahead and plan on reheating later or putting away leftovers. It works similarly to the tight-fitting lid of their Dutch oven, ensuring even cooking and sealing in moisture. It’s even freezer-, microwave-, and broiler-safe (in addition to being fridge- and oven-safe, of course!), so you can use it practically every day. Then when you’re done, cleanup is a breeze — either easily wash food off its smooth surface or stick it in the dishwasher.
At just $99.99, it’s hard to say no to this Ceramic Covered Baking Dish. Because it’s half off, you can buy a dish for yourself and for your brownie-loving friend all for the price of one. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal if you ask us!

I’ve never been picky about my pillow. If it’s firm, cheap, and even cheaper on sale, I’ll take it. It never became an issue until a little over a year ago, when I picked up a pair of pillows (from a very respectable brand) on major markdown. I typically sleep with two pillows stacked on top of each other, but these two felt like too much, and one just wasn’t enough. I thought I’d get used to them, or they’d flatten over time, but ultimately they caused me many restless nights as well as a stiff neck and sore shoulders. The lack of sleep combined with the stressful months of the pandemic left me constantly exhausted, irritable, and on edge. Something had to change, starting with those pillows.
Working at Apartment Therapy, we are constantly introduced to new products, and one of them, the Pillow Cube Pro, sounded like it could offer a solution to my sleep problem. Designed especially for side sleepers (it me!), the pillow is exactly what it sounds like: a block of memory foam with four corners. A longer version of the original Pillow Cube, it comes in 4-, 5-, and 6-inch options, all meant to support your head and shoulders at the right angle while you sleep. The 6-inch pillow is suited for people with big heads (it me again!) and broad shoulders (it not me!), while the 4- and 5-inchers are for those with narrower shoulders. I went with the 5 and vowed to start working out again starting tomorrow.
The Pillow Cube Pro arrived flat in a vacuum-sealed bag. After opening up the package, I watched the pillow expand and come to life. Though the instructions mentioned letting the pillow air out a bit to eliminate the odor often associated with memory foam, I didn’t notice any off-putting smell. After covering the cube with the included quilted pillow cover and pillowcase, I counted down the hours until I could give the Pro a go.
I have to admit that initially, this pillow did feel a little weird. You’re basically resting your head on a giant rectangle-shaped slab. At first I worried that the 5-inch model was too high. Shouldn’t my head be closer to the mattress? And what about my arms? Can I slip an arm under the pillow or do I have to keep my arms below it so I don’t throw off the alignment? I know this pillow is designed for side sleepers, but what if I turn over on my back while I’m sleeping? Before I could find out the answer to any of these questions, it was the next morning. I had fallen into the most sound, blissful sleep without any interruptions.
I’ve been using the pillow for a little over a month now and am glad I made the switch. It’s currently on major Cyber Monday sale for $87.99 (normally $109.99), which is the lowest price we’ve seen in quite a while. (If the Pillow Cube Pro is a bit expensive for you, the smaller Pillow Cube is on sale for $55.99.) It’s also seriously comfortable, and I feel like my head is resting on a cushy cloud. Because I’m not repeatedly adjusting and readjusting my pillows throughout the night, I’m sleeping better than I have in months. I no longer arise from bed feeling sore and stiff, and I’m much more well rested (I’m still cranky, but that’s just my natural disposition).
Time will tell if I’ll stick with the Pillow Cube Pro for the long haul or use it as a body pillow instead (yes, it functions as one of those, too), but right now, this odd-shaped bedtime essential works like a dream.
Buy: Pillow Cube Pro, $87.99 (normally $109.99)
