21 last-minute gifts for Father's Day: 

1. An Amazon Echo to play music, answer questions, and coordinate with other tech

Amazon Echo, available at Amazon, $74.99

An Echo is a convenient gift — it'll provide him with hands-free music and information (like how many ounces are in a gram when he's cooking).

2. A book you know he'll like

"A Gentleman in Moscow," available at Amazon, from $9.34

Pick up a book you know he'll like, or something you loved and want to share with him. We've found the popular read "A Gentleman in Moscow," about a man who is ordered to spend his life inside a luxury hotel while some of the most tumultuous decades in Russia occur, to be a slam dunk. If he's already read and loved it, you can also get Amor Towles' more recent novel, "The Lincoln Highway" (which we also highly recommend).

If he's into historical non-fiction, we also love giving "Say Nothing" by Patrick Radden Keefe, another crowdpleaser.

3. A Fitbit he can use while exercising

Fitbit Versa 3, available at Amazon, $161.49

If he loves being active, a Fitbit lets him keep track of interesting metrics such as heart rate, sleep quality, and exercise stats. We like the Fitbit Versa 3 the most, but you may find another option that works best for Dad — you can read about all of the best Fitbit trackers here.

4. An REI gift card for all his outdoor adventures

REI Co-op Membership, $30

For the adventurer at heart, an REI membership is pretty thoughtful. It lasts a lifetime, and comes with a slew of benefits such as discounts on shop services, rentals, and eligible purchases each year as well as member prices on excursions and exclusive discounts and early access.

5. Our most recommended French press

Bodum Chambord French Press, available at Amazon, $25.99

We love the Bodum Chambord French Press; it's about as timeless as they come, and it's unfussy and seamless to operate. It's also affordable. You can find all our favorite French presses here, though this is our number one pick.

6. A family game you can play together

Catan Board Game, available at Amazon, $46.70

Bring over a game that'll last hours and some snacks — maybe what Dad would like most is family time. If you already have Catan, check out our other recommended family board games.

7. A regular meditation practice

Headspace Gift Subscription, from $12.99

If Dad appreciates simplicity, he might appreciate a gift card to the meditation app Headspace. We know mindfulness can be an important part of personal happiness, and this will help him make it a consistent practice. 

8. Smart lights for the perfect lighting

Philips Hue Light and Color Ambience Kit, available at Amazon, $179.99

These light bulbs can be changed to match any desired mood (white for everyday, other colors to decorate other occasions), and they can be operated using an app or with a smart assistant such as Alexa. 

9. Nice noise-canceling headphones

Sony WH-1000XM4 Headphones, available at Amazon, $278

Our favorite noise-canceling headphones — Sony's WH-1000XM4 — balance sound quality, noise cancellation, and comfort. They're one of the items featured in our list of the All-Time Best products we've tested.

10. A tile tracker that will help Dad find lost items

Tile Mate, available at Amazon, $19.99

The Tile Mate attaches to stuff you may want to track — like luggage — and the stuff you may lose — like your keys. If Dad misplaces something (and it has a Tile attached to it), he can just check the Tile app to locate it. As a bonus, if he loses his phone, he can press his Tile Mate to make it ring. 

11. An excellent, personalized coffee subscription

Trade Coffee Gift Subscription, from $40

If Dad likes a great cup of coffee, he'll enjoy Trade. The coffee subscription service has a huge variety of coffee, and it's easy to customize based on their tastes. We ranked it as the best coffee subscription service you can join. If he's a tea drinker, we'd also recommend checking out an Atlas Tea Club subscription.

12. A gift card to a fun cooking class

Cozymeal Gift Card, prices vary

If dad appreciates experiences, he might love Cozymeal, a local cooking class in which a chef teaches a small group how to make a dish of their choosing. Cozymeal has classes in dozens of US cities, but they also offer virtual classes if he'd prefer that.

13. A gift card he can use to try lots of workout classes

ClassPass Gift Card, prices vary

Exercise can make us feel healthier and happier. Lower the barrier to entry and gift Dad a ClassPass gift card. With it, he can try tons of boutique fitness classes in the area. 

14. A sleek smart mug that keeps his drinks hot

Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug, available at Amazon, $149.95

This mug will control the temperature of Dad's coffee or tea, so he doesn't have to reheat or dump it out every few hours. We think the Ember is "life-changing." If you're looking for a travel version, that's an option, too. 

15. A massage gun to fight soreness

Theragun Mini, available at Therabody, $159

Has your dad ever complained about aches and pains from a hard day of work or a tough workout? If so, then the Theragun Mini might be a good gift choice. The portable device helps alleviate pain, cramps, knots, and tension by massaging muscles.

16. Apple AirPods Pro for when they're on the move

Airpods Pro, available at Amazon, $174.99

We love Apple's AirPods Pro. They're no-hassle, work with Apple products, have decent sound and noise cancellation, are water-resistant, have a wireless charging case, and feel more comfortable than standard AirPods. You'll find more wireless earbuds we love here.

17. A Wi-Fi extender for the convenience

TP-Link Wifi Extender, available at Amazon, $27.98

Wi-Fi signals don't always reach every corner of a home, which might test your dad's patience. The TP-Link AC750 WiFi Extender can plug into most common outlets to cover up to 1,500 square feet in his home. 

After he hits the WPS button on the home router, he'll have to hit the range extender on the TP-Link device. After that, he'll be able to get dual-band speeds of up to 750 Mbps in otherwise difficult-to-reach areas in his home.

18. ​​A digital frame for their favorite photos

Aura Carver Frame, available at Amazon, $159

This frame will showcase his favorite memories digitally. It has unlimited photo and video storage and a built-in speaker to play sound from the videos. 

19. An Audible subscription for books on the go

AudiblePlus subscription, available at Audible, from $7.95 per month

With an Audible subscription, Dad gets unlimited access to thousands of audiobooks and podcasts on the go.

20. Tickets to a concert or game

Stubhub Gift Card, prices vary

Give Dad an experience he can look forward to in the near future — tickets to a live concert or game.

21. A funny card

"This Was the Cheesiest Card I Could Find" Card, available at Amazon, $6.99

Write Dad a note on Father's Day in a unique card you didn't just pick up on the way over. 

22. A membership that delivers them new vinyls every month

Vinyl Me, Please Subscription, from $119

Adding to his vinyl collection isn't difficult when he can choose one exclusive LP each month from a collection of Essentials, Classics, and Rap and Hip Hop. Read our full review of Vinyl Me, Please here.
