Month in and month out, the Bob Vila team reviews news products and keeps the pulse of the home and garden industry. Among products and other discoveries this month, we saw a fancy robot vacuum, a smart kitchen workhorse, a new line of Dutch ovens from a legacy cast iron brand, and more. Keep reading to see the home innovations we’re most excited about this June.
1. A new 6-in-1 air fryer is the next product from the buzzy cookware brand Our Place.
The brand behind the coveted 8-in-1 Always Pan and Perfect Pot launched its own take on the air fryer (in four matte shades, of course): the Wonder Oven. Like Our Place’s other kitchen products, this compact appliance is a multitasker. It air fries, steams, roasts, toasts, broils, and reheats so you don’t have to switch to another appliance. Pour a little water into its inlet for perfectly steamed foods. You can use it to make everything from a 4.5-pound roasted chicken one weeknight to fresh loaves of bread over the weekend.

2. Eufy launched a powerful robot mop.
From its premium Mach V1 Ultra to its ultra-speedy robot vacuums, Eufy has no shortage of incredible cleaning tools. The brand’s latest innovation, the Eufy Clean X9 Pro CleanerBot, is a suction that sweeps up dirt and debris from every crevice of your home.

3. A new line of enameled cast iron Dutch ovens from Lodge.
With a legacy that dates back to 1896, Lodge is one of the biggest names associated with quality cast iron cookware. The brand just unveiled its USA Enamel Collection, a new line of colorful enameled cast iron Dutch ovens with a name that embraces its fully American-made design (it’s designed and manufactured in the company’s hometown of South Pittsburg, TN!) Available in three hues—cherry red, cloud white, and a deep ocean blue—these Dutch ovens are meant to last for generations. Each one is oven-safe up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit, with a self-basting lid, and effective retention for even cooking.

4. Cyclopure announced its new Purefast Home Filters for PFAS removal
The concern for contaminants in drinking water is high for many. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are often found in nonstick cookware, household cleaners, and even some clothing products. This year, Cyclopure debuted Purefast Home Filter designed to remove forever chemicals from our drinking water. Best of all? It’s compatible with the already popular line of Brita filtration pitchers, making it an easy upgrade for many households. Simply replace the standard filter in your Brita pitcher, following Purefast’s instructions for conditioning, and let Purefast cleanse it of any unwanted contaminants with each refill. A single Purefast Home Filter can provide up to 65 gallons of filtered water, or three months of cleaner drinking water for a family of two. At the end of its use, the company pays for its return and safe disposal to prevent PFAS waste from contaminating the environment.
