While the holiday season is arguably the most beautiful part of the year, it comes with one huge duty: get your loved ones good gifts.
Now, the shopping experience can be quite stressful. It’s not only because of the potential expenses but also due to the fact that you can never be sure if they will like what you get them.
Still, you should always keep in mind that, as long as your gift is loving and thoughtful, you will not go wrong.
Frankly, on top of the stress list is probably what to get your parents. Considering the fact that there are two of them, and you don’t want one to think you don’t love them as much as the other.
If this is a problem that you’re currently facing, we’ve got you covered! The best solution? Joint presents for parents.
To help inspire you, we’ve come up with more than a few great ideas, including budget-friendly and high-end options.
Let’s get to it!

Gift Ideas That Both Your Parents Can Use
What good is a gift if your parents will not actually use it?
Bearing this in mind, getting them something like a kitchen appliance or a set of ceramic kitchen plates sounds great.
Onwards to ideas for joint presents for parents!

If they are like any average parents, chances are your parents enjoy drinking coffee. Now, one of the best ways to make their morning routine better is investing in a proper coffee grinder.
Not many people freshly grind their coffee beans, and, believe us, it’s quite easy. As long as you invest in a proper coffee grinder, there is nothing better than tasting freshly-ground coffee by your hands.
ur personal favorite is the Baratza Encore Coffee Grinder as one of the most useful gifts for parents. While you are at it, getting them a KitchenAid Cold Brew Coffee Maker can go a long way towards their extraordinary coffee experience.
The second great idea, if you’re on a tighter budget but you want to surprise your parents, is getting them an Ancestry DNA Kit. We bet that your parents have wondered where their ancestry traces back to, and, with this simple-to-use product, that info is so easy to get.
Once they use the included test strips, there will be a few weeks waiting process and voila, the results will be there just in time for the end of the holiday season!
Gifts at Around $200
If your parents love jamming to some good music, then getting them a proper speaker is one of the best things that you can do.
The Bose Soundlink Bluetooth Speaker will allow up to 12 hours of continuous playtime with high-quality sound and great bass. Not only that, but it can be used for connecting conference or Skype calls, and, thus, having a better overall stereo experience.
Among the most popular clothing items for the home has to be the bathrobe.
There is one particular product line that everyone is talking about — yes, we mean the Snowe Terry Luxury Bathrobes. Extremely comfortable and made of high-quality material, your parents will enjoy spending time in these.
Get both your mother and father one to stay on the safe side!

Talking about somewhat more luxury-leaning gifts to get your parents, we see the Nest Programmable Thermostat as another phenomenal choice. This kind of device is something that any house can benefit from.
It will keep you warm during the colder months and ensure adequate cooling when it gets too hot. Not only that, but, due to a number of innovative features that this product comes with, you can program it to run only for a few hours, and it will give you alerts if the settings need to be changed.
On top of all that, your parents will not have to put a lot of effort into it, as the high-tech design allows full control from a mobile phone app.
This is definitely one of the cool tech gifts you could get for your mom and dad.
Gifts at around $400
If your parents enjoy art and love decorating their house, then the Netgear Meural Canvas II is a fantastic choice.
Featuring a matte display and a light sensor, it is another one of the tech gifts for mom and dad that they will love. Instead of having to print out and frame every photo or artwork, now it can be presented digitally on the main living room wall.
The best thing about this? You can control it via Alexa Voice for a more user-friendly and hassle-free experience.
Not only will it contribute to the overall atmosphere in their living room, but also to a supreme presentation of high-quality artwork.
Gifts at around $500
Have you just received your monthly paycheck and you are ready to spend a lot of money on holiday gifts, but you are not sure what to give your mom and dad? Well, you can never go wrong with a reliable house appliance, such as the iRobot Brava Jet M6. This will reduce the amount of time that they would usually spend cleaning kitchen grease and floor dirt/dust.
This is an incredible product that has a number of smart features that will lead it to stay out of certain areas while doing a more efficient job when it is cleaning the carpet floor.
Much like with the aforementioned thermostat, they will be able to control this handy device via a mobile phone app.
Give love to the parents who love you
Choosing the perfect gifts for the holiday season doesn’t have to be all that stressful. As we’ve suggested, it all comes down to knowing what your parents may need or like. Buying joint presents for your parents is definitely a great idea. We hope that our ideas give you a push when it comes to making the right choice.
If all of the aforementioned products are too expensive for your taste, then we suggest you go ahead and simply get them a ticket to a nice concert or a sports game. This always works and will provide your parents with a couple of hours of entertainment.
Gifting your parents a vacation instead? Why not also buy a large hanging toiletry organizer for travel?
