Happy September, y’all. Wirecutter readers spent last month busily prepping for fall: jotting down to-dos with our top-pick pen, brewing a whole bunch of coffee with our favorite cheap coffee makers, and zipping up new backpacks for back-to-school season. Meanwhile, some—actually, a lot—of you looked into getting some new deodorant. (No sweat. Same here.)
