You can probably tell from our numerous holiday gift guides that we’re well versed in the quirky, affordable stuff. What you may not know is that we’ve become increasingly conscious of investing in truly splurge-worthy, quality pieces that'll stretch our dollars in the long run. So here, we're rolling out a rather new-ish shopping roundup for us: A guide to unabashedly expensive gifts that clock in (mostly) over $200.
Some of these picks are made to luxuriate your life, other products are simply high-end versions of practical, everyday items. Either way, all of these items were hand-selected because we personally feel like they're absolutely worth saving up for — or worth gifting the special people in your life who deserve the VIP versions of essentials they not only want but genuinely need in their lives. From a water purification system that'll last two presidential cycles to a pair of designer loafers that'll undoubtedly go with everything, here are some of our top-of-list items that will make for unforgettable holiday gift-giving moments.

Travel Berkey & Stand Bundle, $345 $310

The Cleanest Water You'll Ever Drink
Speaking from experience (because I recently splurged on one of these top-rated water purifiers myself), I cannot tell you how ecstatic I am with the 1.5 gallon-sized Travel Berkey (the smaller size, which is recommended for a 1-2 person household). Yes, it's an expensive product, but it's worth it because it produces the cleanest water I've ever tasted (seriously, it even purifies pond and lake water for camping) and it's something that'll eventually pay for itself. Plus, the purifiers will last you anywhere from 4-8 years! For a larger household, try the 2.25 gallon-sized Big Berkey.

Smeg 4 Slice Toaster, $229.95
A Bread Lover's Dream
Okay, it's a toaster. And yes, that's all it does. But, have you seen such a sweet-lookin’ appliance? For the price you pay, it promises to sizzle bread to the most perfect, desired-crisp finish. Writes one reviewer, "It’s so beautiful and cooks perfectly and even. I had the typical cheap toaster before this and I’m so glad I upgraded."

A Face-Radiating Formula
Vintner's Daughter is a famously expensive skincare brand, but for good reason — people who use the products swear it has transformed their faces. This particular product has a rating of 4.1 out of 5 stars with skincare converters saying, "It’s not immediate but after about a week of using it every night, I noticed my skin cleared up, became more even-toned, and in general just glowed. I switched to using it morning and night and saw even more of a difference. I also use the Vintner’s Daughter essence, but the serum is the real game-changer. I’ve never been a bigger fan of a face product. It is absolutely worth the splurge!!" The elixir owes its power to the brand’s signature Phyto Radiance Infusion, which infuses whole plants into an aqueous solution through a two-week fermentation, drawing out nutrients like vitamin C, B vitamins, hyaluronic acid, probiotics, and superfoods.

Bearaby Tree Napper, $279
A Blanket That Carries The Weight
There's no feeling like dozing under a weighted blanket, a practice that’s believed (but not scientifically proven) to release calming hormones and deliver better sleep. While Bearaby offers several styles (including one made of organic cotton), the cool-to-the-touch Tencel version has a near-perfect 4.8 out of 5 rating and 1,981 reviews. Writes one customer: "I love it! So elegant and in a word, luxurious. Hard to believe something so beautiful has therapeutic value. Best night’s sleep for months. The airflow was good — not overly hot — just cozy. Major relief from tension and anxiety." Get it in 15, 20, or 25 pounds in an array of colors.

A Designer Card Holder
A small, wallet-ish accessory from a high-end designer is always a classy, crowd-pleasing move. Loewe’s recognizable “puzzle” motif lends itself beautifully to a petite accessory that will elevate any pocket-scape, and the textured leather fabrication will wear in gorgeously over time.

Congrats On Your Squeaky-Clean Hole
May you and your loved ones enjoy the feeling of clean water rinsing away any bathroom "messes" with a bidet (rather than smearing and wiping with waste-building toilet paper). All you need for installation is a nearby electrical outlet. Believe the hype: our beauty and wellness writer Karina Hoshikawa gave the Tushy an IRL try last year. “It’s the difference between hand-rinsing a very dirty dish without soap or a sponge vs. using your dishwasher's extreme-clean power cycle,” she wrote of the TP upgrade. For a slightly cheaper bidet, we also recommend the Omigo Luxury Bidet.

Le Creuset Signature Enameled Cast Iron Oval Dutch Oven, $350 $299.95
The Dutch Oven That'll Outlive You
Often billed as the last (and only) pot you'll ever need, this Le Creuset pot is a foolproof gift for anyone who loves to cook. It has a 4.9 out of 5 stars all around, with reviewers raving about its "heritage" status: "Heirloom quality, you will pass your Le Creuset down generation to generation. My family swears by this brand, particularly the enameled cast iron cookware. It just bakes better. It retains moisture, enhances flavor, and makes whatever you are cooking better. Easy to clean. This is an investment but on sale, it’s a little easier to afford — you won’t buy other pots. And the oval Dutch oven is a favorite. Use it for everything (holidays, large meals) you cannot find better cookware."

A Deluxe Linen Duvet Set
At the time of writing, 210 reviewers are vouching for this luxe linen duvet set (which includes two pillowcases), giving it a solid 4.8 out of 5 stars. What sets this apart from other linen bedding is the very material: breathable, OEKO-TEX®-certified 100% European flax that's also been pre-washed for immediate softness. "The linen sheets and duvet are a dream to sleep in. The quality of the linen is by far the best I’ve seen and I’ve been sleeping in linen sheets for over 10 years," writes Marco, a cultiver.com reviewer.

Winix AM90 Wi-Fi Air Purifier, $219.99
A Non-Eyesore Of An Air Purifier
Air purifiers are one of those household items that will truly elevate your standard of living, but they can be clunky, ugly, and space-invading. That's where this Winix air purifier comes in. It removes pollutants, dust mites, pollen, pet dander, and various allergens from getting into your lungs, all while looking kind of cute. One reviewer writes, "This is our fourth Winix air cleaner. Our original lasted about 12 years before dying, and we now have three new models in our house. For us, the WiFi setup and operation is seamless, and the app on my iPhone works perfectly for all three devices. I like the fact that the unit goes to "sleep" mode when the lights are off, so you don't need to remember to turn it down or set a schedule."

Yes, this is expensive but I believe it’s worth it. I use it twice a day and then follow with a serum. I also saw a YouTube video that Paris Hilton brings this when she travels!"

An Advanced E-Reader
Bookworms will especially love the Kindle Oasis, which is a pricey but appropriately advanced e-reader from Amazon. With a 4.6 out of 5 rating and nearly 18K reviews, it's clear the investment is well worth it. Says one longtime Kindle user: "[The] adjustable color temperature screen is the greatest advance in Kindles since self-illuminating screens were introduced on the first Paperwhite — period, full-stop. And, at least for this reader, there’s no going back after trying it out. It’s that good, and that much of a game changer."

Vitamix 7500, $529.95 $479.95

Not only does Vitamix’s 7500 model have a mark of 4.7 out of 5 stars, but reviewers also sing its praises for how it's improved their quality of life: "I have very serious health issues and my doctors wanted to put a tube in my stomach. I did a lot of research and am pretty savvy about nutrition. I purchased the Vitamix 7500, filled my freezer with healthy fruit/vegetables and my pantry with super food powders, chia seeds, [and] coconut oil. Stopped dairy replaced with unsweetened almond milk. The difference in my GI tract is a miracle! The seeds are completely pureed as is everything else. It is so to easy to digest despite being amazingly high in fiber. You can make the most incredibly nutritious smoothies!! VERY easy to clean!! No gastroenterologist knew how to regulate my GI tract. Vitamix did!!! THANK YOU!!!"

The Only Cashmere Sweater In The World
As a person who owns a Jenni Kayne cashmere sweater, I can attest that this best-selling knit is the only thing I ever want to wear. It's as soft as PJs, but made to withstand any chill — honestly, it's so cozy that I often end up getting sweaty in it. If you're looking for an open-front style, the brand's (equally best-selling) Cashmere Cocoon Cardigan is a serious must-add to any wardrobe. Cashmere gets its legendary softness from its ultra-narrow fibers, but the material still manages to insulate better than wool — and adjusts to your body temperature for ultimate comfort.

A Huge TV (Because You Deserve It)
Netflix-and-chillers are obsessed with this 60" TV, which also happens to be a first-time size for Samsung. "I absolutely love this TV!! The picture is beautiful and it was easy to set up. I love how thin it is. I’m happy that the apps Apple TV and Spectrum are on it. The only thing it doesn’t do is allow Apple TV fitness to show on the screen. For that to work I have to actually plug in my Apple TV box. I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend," writes Emilia, bestbuy.com reviewer. And, that's not the only praise: This TV has a rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars, ranked from 143 solid reviews.

The Tortoiseshell Eyeglass Frames
If you've recently felt lifted by the Beatles documentary on Disney+, perhaps you'll feel partial to these round metal frames which Garrett Leight says is "inspired by music legend John Lennon."

Windmill Smart Home Air Conditioner, $425 $395
An Actually Good-Looking Air Conditioner
If you've got loved ones living in stickier, humid climates all-year round, gifting this "smart" AC is going to be a game-changer. Our lifestyle writer Alexandra Polk reviewed it firsthand and wrote about her favorite Windmill feature, The Windmill Air app: "With a single *boop* to my phone, I can turn my AC on from anywhere in my apartment (or even before I get home) so I don't walk into a humid swamp. I can put it on a schedule, connect it to Alexa or a Google Assistant, and just be in complete control of my AC whenever I want."

I can put it on a schedule, connect it to Alexa or a Google Assistant, and just be in complete control of my AC whenever I want."
