Welcome back, Shoppers.

With spring just around the corner, we’re officially out of our shopping slump and are motivated to buy from every new collection in sight. If that’s you too, read on. We’re sharing some covetable basics that’ll set the foundation for anything else you’re adding to cart.

We can dream about an everflowing disposable income to buy whatever we want. But in the spirit of adulting and loud budgeting, we’re here to figure out what’s actually worth it. On our minds this week: Do we buy an at-home SoulCycle bike from Equinox+ or an under-desk pedaler from Amazon?

SoulCycle’s At-Home Bike

If spin classes are your preferred workout, but you’re wanting a luxe at-home option, this bike is worth the splurge. It has built-in Bluetooth capabilities and you can even stream Netflix, Prime Video, and Disney+. The downside? On top of the hefty $2500 price tag, you also need to separately pay for weights, a bike mat, and an Equinox+ subscription (an extra $40/month) in order to access on-demand classes.

Himaly’s Mini Exercise Bike

At under $50, we love this option if you’re new to spinning or want a compact under-desk option that isn’t as clunky as a walking pad. This one is fundamentally different from a classic spin bike, but is a good way to get some extra movement in during the work day. You can even adjust the resistance.

• Boxy crew you can pair with whatever your heart desires.
