Sitting at a whopping 49% off, the Ultimate Ears Wonderboom 4 will make the perfect Father’s Day gift. In Mashable’s guide to the best Bluetooth speakers, the UE Wonderboom 4 earns the top spot as the best option under $100. Thanks to this early Prime Day deal, we have a significant discount. Mashable’s review explains, “This speaker is small (and rugged enough) to take on hikes, while hiking, and tossing around the pool.” Since it’s waterproof, it’s a great option to use as a shower speaker.

A great deal on a portable power station

$749
on Amazon

$1,499
Save $750

Why we love you

Over the past few years, I’ve tested a number of portable power stations, and the Anker Solix C2000 Gen 2 is the one I use the most. I’d rather exceed my power needs than fall short, which is why I’m going with 2048Wh of battery capacity with the C2000 Gen 2. It’s still portable enough to take a weekend camping trip without being too heavy to carry around. I also like the two USB-C ports with maximum power of up to 140W. It’s also fast to recharge, taking less than an hour from dead to full power. Since I often decide to go camping at the last minute (I’m a fair weather camper), the quick charge comes in handy when I don’t plan ahead.

Dad is sure to find a use for the Solix C2000 Gen 2, from camping to yard work or keeping the house powered during the next storm. Shop today at Amazon and save 50%.

Why we love you

Who doesn’t love a frozen drink? Ninja Slushi does not require ice and does not at any time require soaking in almost any liquid. Dad can throw Coke cans in there for a refreshing drink, pull out a bunch of frozen mugs for a barbecue, or take on the subject of making the world’s best milkshake. Using the code SLUSH at checkout will get you a Ninja Slushi for $233.99. And while it could technically be a gift for dad, you know he’ll benefit, too.

Best deal on water bottles

$27.97
on Amazon

Why we love you

For the dad who always forgets to drink water, give him his favorite water bottle Mashable. The Owala FreeSip allows both the water bottle to be lifted up to take a large glug or to come out with a built-in straw. In Mashable’s review of the Owala FreeSip, Shopping Reporter, Samantha Mangino, said, “The insulation of the FreeSip is absolutely flawless, providing 24 hours of cold. I filled mine with ice and water to come back a day later and still get the jingle of full ice cubes. Plus, the two-part locking lid can also be handled as a simple loop.

The 32-ounce version of the FreeSip normally retails for $34.99, but Amazon has select colors on sale for $27.97 or $27.99.

If the dad in your life is a Star Wars fan and enjoys building a Lego set, it’s a win-win to win the Lego Star Wars R2-D2. The building will look great on a bookshelf or desk, and the 25th anniversary edition includes a Darth Malak minifigure.
