The Lettuce Grow Farmstand is an indoor hydroponic garden that can put Mom's dream of growing her own produce within reach. It comes in small, medium (shown), and large versions, as well as indoor and outdoor. Use the coupon code to save. It's stylish and quiet, and it can be used to grow everything from peppers to tomatoes to flowers, herbs, and greens. Reviewer Kat Merck recommends treating seedlings with insecticide upon arrival to prevent an aphid onslaught like she had to deal with, but she still says the product is a great indoor garden. It doesn't go on sale very often. Make sure you select the Original Farmstand in order to get the deal price.

iPad (2025, A16)

This iPad has been on sale at this price for a while, but it's still a match of the lowest we've seen for our favorite tablet.

PowerDetect Cordless Stick Vacuum

You should only get Mom a vacuum if she explicitly asked for one, but this is a safe bet that can handle basically any household mess.

Libra Colour

The best e-reader can display color or even double as a digital notebook if you opt for the stylus (which adds $70).

D3 Mother of All Pans with Lid (6 Quart)

This pan has the most surface area you can get from an all-star All-Clad piece of cookware. The versatile shape can be used for a breakfast scramble, a grilled cheese assembly line, or whatever magical roast she manages to whip up with seemingly incongruent fridge ingredients. All-Clad cookware is backed by a lifetime warranty, not that she'll need to use it; the only thing that works harder than she does is this tri-ply stainless steel.

Kindle Paperwhite (2024, 12th Generation)

If she'd prefer to stay in the Amazon ecosystem, this is a solid deal for the best Kindle on the market (though it has sold for less in the past).

Charge 6

The Fitbit Charge 6 is the best Fitbit overall, and though it has sold for $100 before, this is still a pretty good deal if Mom has been wanting to track her fitness metrics.

Keurig

K-Café Smart Single Serve Coffee Maker

I love this coffee maker, and I'm happy to report that so does my mother, who has been helping me long-term test it for the past year or so. It looks nice on the counter, and the large reservoir has a enough capacity that she doesn't have to constantly refill it. The companion milk frother allows my little sisters to create the abominations they scroll past on TikTok, and the pod brewer is happy to make an espresso-like beverage. Sales aren't rare, but if Mom is constantly complaining about the coffee maker she's had since before you were born, perhaps it’s time for an upgrade.

Keurig

K-Mini

This single-serve maker is best for moms who only need to brew one cup at a time, or perhaps for her home office or She-Shed.

Keurig

K-Brew + Chill Coffee Maker

If Mom is an iced coffee enthusiast, this Keurig is our favorite pod coffee maker for iced beverages. It uses water that's actually cold—a novelty in this space.

Strol 2S Pro Treadmill

This versatile walking pad can also be used as a treadmill, and it's shockingly quiet as well as stable. It has a tablet holder too.

Omni C28

Again, you shouldn't get a vac unless Mom asked for one. This robot companion can do the hard work on its own, with a little help sometimes.

Book Reading Light

Does your mom like to read wherever she is? This is our favorite budget reading light, and right now it's around the price of a cup of coffee. It weighs 1.38 ounces and folds flat, with a clip that can fit on any size book. Mom will also love that it has a stand, so it can sit on a bedside table or other surface. Battery life only lasts around eight hours, but it's so portable that it's great for throwing in a purse or traveling. Add a book she's been wanting to read to your Amazon cart and you have a gift that's both solid and will arrive in time. Kat Merck

Sleep Mask

This is WIRED reviewer Louryn Strampe's favorite silk sleep mask—she loves that it's lightweight and slippery and comes in a ton of color options, along with a matching storage bag. Right now it's more than 40 percent off, which is a steal. —Kat Merck

CRKD

Atom Controller

This mini controller is compatible with Nintendo Switch, PC, macOS, iOS, and Android devices, and despite being so tiny, it really works—you can't go wrong for under $20, if your mom likes gaming. The pink is currently out of stock, but there are nine other fun colors to choose from. —Kat Merck

Luxe Bath Robe

This is WIRED reviewer Nena Farrell's favorite bathrobe—she loves the spa-like feel and silky blend of cotton and viscose. It's 15 percent off right now on Amazon. This one may not arrive in time for Mother's Day, but something tells me she'll forgive you when she sees it. —Kat Merck

Karaoke Microphone

If your mom loves karaoke, make every day a karaoke party day with one of these mics. Former WIRED editor Parker Hall loved this microphone, which is USB-rechargeable and has simple controls and effects. Right now it's less than $20 and 10 colors are in stock, so you can choose just the right one to match her vibe. —Kat Merck
