Upgrade Your Patio Instantly with These Seven Genius Products under $50
Bring your deck into the 21st century with these inexpensive products that will change your patio experience forever.
Chances are, your idea of the great outdoors might have changed in 2020. We hope you’re taking a responsible approach to getting out on the trail, but if you’re like us it’s more likely you’re simply enjoying whatever outdoor space you have nearby, whether it’s your own backyard or a park down the street. That’s why we’ve picked out these instant upgrades for amping up those spaces with just a click.
Adventure Happy Hour Cocktail Shaker Set
Glassware stays indoors when we’re in the yard watching the sun set. But that’s no reason to skip happy hour. We’re toting this durable insulated set outdoors to ease into the evening; the entire set stacks nicely, and even includes a built-in juicer. Smart, affordable, and long-lasting.
Kelty Bestie BFF Blanket
Getting cozy in the backyard means stretching out. But grabbing an “inside blanket” for firefly spotting can end up in stains and smudges. That’s why we love this combination blanket and tarp, which is cushy on top and durable underneath. It’s a fantastic combination.

The Voice-Enabled Outdoor Smart Socket
String lights are an amazing addition to the evening ambience, extending the usable hours of your outdoor space and capturing the cool evening atmosphere. But forgetting to flip them off once you’re tucked in bed? Frustrating. That’s why we love this setup—which lets you control them via app, or with a simple setup, via Alexa, Google Home, or Siri. A must-have. There’s even a version that offers a dimmer switch.
Yeti 30 oz. Rambler Tumbler with Lid
Not sure about you, but we find that running into the house to fetch another drink is a downer. Especially when the sun’s about to wink out. This hefty beverage hauler insures your drink will stay cold, and your butt will stay planted where it belongs: basking in the magic hour. The magsafe lid is our favorite easy-open solution on the market.
Shatterproof LED String Lights
String lights are table stakes for backyard living. They throw off a comfortable glow that won’t blind you, but they still illuminate the entire yard. This set boasts LED bulbs that will sip power responsibly and won’t shatter like conventional incandescent bulbs.
Rovr Keepr Drinks Tote
Bulky coolers are great for long trips, but we like this slim model thanks to built-in partitions for keeping drinks upright. It’s perfect for every home, whether you’re toting drinks up to the pool or sunset cocktail supplies out into the woods. Okay, okay—it’s not under $50 but we’re fans anyway.
