Monstrum play structures fire the imagination

Have you ever looked at a toy or adventure that a kid has and thought, “Man, where was that when I was their age?” If so, then these play structures designed by the Danish firm Monstrum Architecture will more than likely cause some serious envy.

Founded by Ole B. Nielsen and Christian Jensen, Monstrum aims to reflect the imaginations of children in their designs. We have to say it looks as though they’ve succeeded with designs that include wobbly and lopsided castles, whales, serpents, and ships sinking into the sand.

These storybook-esque structures offer something to marvel at with their brilliant design, and of course, all that childish envy.

If you’d like to see more of their designs check out Monstrum’s site.

Summer is here, time to rip the tarp off the pool and start enjoying the sunshine. But hold up – the pool has been sitting there for months now. It’s collected a film of algae along the bottom. Somehow there’s scum a few inches above the waterline. Have the tiles always been that color? Your pool needs rejuvenation.

If the idea of cleaning your pool to get ready for summer – and cleaning it regularly throughout the season – is holding you back from planning your pool party, maybe it’s time to phone a friend. Aiper is happy to answer the call.

If you have pets, but hate vacuuming, this Shark robot vacuum is 49% off
The Shark AV2501S vacuum bot.

Nobody really likes vacuuming. Even with manually washing dishes you get to hear the pleasant sounds of water running, but vacuuming is overall just loud and time consuming. That's why we love robot vacuums so much. What we don't like about robot vacuums, however, is the price, which is why scouring through robot vacuum deals is so critical. Take this one, an early Prime Day deal, that saves you $270 on the Shark AV2501S, dropping its price to $280 from $550. Putting this all into perspective, when we covered the Shark AV2501S's 2024 Prime Day deal, it was still $412—things are looking a lot better for you this time around. To lock in this great price, simply tap the button below and make your purchase. Otherwise, keep reading to see why we like this vacuum, and what made it special enough for us to recommend it in the past.

This July, xTool isn’t just opening a new office in Mountain View, California, it’s setting up shop with purpose. Their U.S. Brand Launch Experience, timed with the debut of xTool’s first American headquarters, is more than a launch party. It’s a look at how the company is thinking long-term about tools, creators, and community.

At the center of the event is the F2 Ultra, xTool’s new flagship dual-laser system designed for small businesses and serious makers. Why does this machine matter? It helps to zoom out first. xTool’s U.S. expansion is borne of the necessity to show up for the people who use their products every day.
A Local Anchor for a Growing Brand
Mountain View now hosts xTool’s first U.S. demo center and office. That means faster customer support, more hands-on service, and a clearer bridge to the U.S. creative scene. One standout piece of the rollout is the xTool Squad, a national support team offering real human help with setup, training, and troubleshooting.
