This tandem showerhead seeks to solve one issue: co-showers that leave one person shivering in the cold while the other gets in the way of the body wash. And we found it actually does a pretty good job at that. The well-built contraption adds a second head to most (though not all) showers in just a few minutes — no plumber required — so both people get their own stream of water.
But the best part, according to writer Liam McCabe? “How decadent it feels to shower alone with warm water splashing both sides of your body.”

Your daily deal: A terrific terry-cloth robe |
 |
| Michael Murtaugh/NYT Wirecutter |
This is the platonic ideal of a traditional terry robe: indulgently soft and easy to move in. Because it’s essentially a wearable towel, it absorbs plenty of moisture without clinging to your skin, making it an excellent post-shower robe.
