For those who need to monitor their blood pressure at home, but don’t want Bluetooth functionality, this kit is a great option. Nearly identical to our top pick, this monitor has the ability to detect an irregular heartbeat and features an easy-to-read, backlit screen. Because it can't be paired with an app, it relieves the pressure of privacy issues—but you'll have to track and average your reading manually.

Our runner-up adjustable dumbbells are sturdy, well-made, and allow for subtle load adjustments—from 5 pounds to 52½ pounds. They’re not as sleek as our top pick, but the smaller weight increments allow for more nuance overall. Unfortunately, they don’t have adjustable handlebars that get shorter as you change the weight, making this set harder to handle for smaller-framed people.
