It’s tiiiiiiiiiiiiiime. And no, we’re not talking about the annual defrosting of Mariah Carey (although, tis the season). Truly, nothing kick-starts the holiday shopping season like the release of Oprah’s Favorite Things 2025 list.
The TV personality and media maven has once again unveiled her gifting picks for 2025, with this year’s list featuring a whopping 112 unique gifts. There’s a lot on Oprah’s it-list to be obsessed with, and the picks run the gamut from the hottest tech of the season (think Ooni’s new electric pizza oven) to gourmet treats that you may just want to keep from gifting and snack on yourself.
But with such a massive gifting cheat sheet at your disposal, how can you know which of Oprah’s picks are really worth the splurge? Do you really want to gift your mom another pair of fluffy socks? Or an obligatory tin of hot chocolate to your neighbor?
Well, your trusty RS shopping editors have pored over the whole list to give you our recommendations for the 15+ most worthwhile gifts on Oprah’s Favorite Things 2025 list that deserve to be added to your cart. The best part? Plenty of these picks are already on sale ahead of Black Friday. What are you waiting for? Start checking off your holiday gifting list below.
Brooklinen Super-Plush Robe
Not only does Brooklinen make hotel-worthy sheets, but the brand also crafts some of our (and Oprah’s) favorite bathrobes. This soft-to-the-touch silhouette comes in multiple sizes and color options.
Apple AirPods Pro 3 Wireless Earbuds
Apple’s AirPods Gen 3 are some of the most reliable headphones in the game. These noise-cancelling buds come with “extended battery life and all-new ear tips,” according to the brand.
Ooni Volt 2 Electric Pizza Oven
Become your own pro pizza chef at home with the Ooni Electric Oven. Smaller than the brand’s other models, it fits into almost any space while still delivering the same delicious pie you’ve been craving.
Warmies Microwavable & Weighted Stuffed Dinosaur
Warmies are weighted stuffed animals that can help relieve stress and anxiety. They have cozy fur and a gentle warmth (after a quick trip in the microwave). But if you prefer a cooler feeling, you can also pop them in the freezer.
Breville Oracle Jet Espresso Machine
Although the Breville Oracle Touch is on the pricier side, it’s a need, not a want, for any coffee snob. And in the long run, it just might replace your daily Starbucks trips.
Sur La Table Smash Burger Kit
Smash burgers are easier to make at home than you’d think — especially with this kit from Sur La Table. Add your beef patties, a bit of arm strength, and your favorite toppings, and your order is officially ready to go.
Apple Watch Series 11
Another Apple favorite: the Apple Watch Series 11. Released in Sept. 2025, it’s great for the fitness-obsessed giftee in your life — or for leveling up your own health and workout routine.
Saie The Ultimate Brush Collection
Our editors swear by Saie, and this brush set is the ideal companion to the brand’s award-winning products like the Blush & Glow set and Slip Tint Moisturizer.
Dyson Airwrap Co-Anda 2X
When it comes to products worth the hype, the Dyson Airwrap Coanda 2x is always on the list. Get a fresh blowout or great curls with minimal effort — it saves time in the morning and money you’d normally spend at the salon.
Skims Soft-Lounge Sleep Set
Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS pajama set is a major upgrade from your usual PJs. Luxurious and stylish, they’re the perfect “I actually thought about this gift” choice with no last-minute panic shopping required.
Béis Luggage The Starter Set
At RS Recommends, we travel often, and Béis luggage always holds up. The brand’s sleek suitcases wheel easily through airports, even when you’re sprinting to your gate, and stow neatly when you’re home.
Chateau D’Estoublon Picholine 2020 Harvest French Extra Virgin Olive Oil
This olive oil may cause a bit of sticker shock, but it’s absolutely worth it. Drizzle it over pasta, baked bread, or your homemade Ooni pizza, and you’ll wonder how you ever cooked without it.
Concept2 SkiErg with Floor Stand
Skip the trip to the gym and train at home with the Concept2 SkiErg with Floor Stand. With hundreds of five-star reviews on Amazon, it’s a best-seller in sports and fitness gear for good reason.
Annie Leibovitz: Women: 2025 Edition
There’s nothing chicer than a great coffee table book, and this one, featuring incredible portraits of women from around the world by famed photographer Annie Leibovitz, is a must-have. Bonus: it’s currently 20% off.
