TOP 15 CHRISTMAS GIFTS - Big Valley News has searched through Amazon and found what we think are the best of the best or this Christmas. We did not select the basic, entry-level versions of a product, but the top of the line, flagship products from these companies. While you can buy a ROKU Television streaming device for around $29, the ROKU we selected is the 2019 ULTRA with JBL headphones and TV controls; top of the line.
We included one honorable mention item, an Amazon ECHO 3rd Generation. We bought our first one about six months ago and now have three throughout the house. We use ours for scheduling our air conditioning and heater, turning on lights, playing music and communicating through the house. This is the one item that I think every house should have, especially if you are an Amazon Prime member.
