I do a charcuterie kit: a cutting board, cute knife set, fancy crackers, a nice jam, etc.
The majority of these are obligations. I don't know your buddy but get them something consumable. Candles. Booze. Hell even a Lowe's gift card.
Towels? What if they don't like the color? What're the chances they bought a house and don't look forward to personalizing it? A ring camera? So you're locking them into a recurring contract? Na. Not for me bud.

Lowe’s is a thoughtful gift - good point
Pro
A ring doorbell

A cute front door rug!
Air plant if they don’t have cats

I’m p sure they’re not. Just did a quick google search to confirm. But putting myself as a cat, if I saw an air plant, chances are I’d play with it. 😂

Ask them top 5 things they would like. I’m a minimalist and don’t like having a lot of things, especially in a small apartment— it creates clutter.
But, if someone was to ask me rn I would choose:
• nice towels
• cozy cotton bathrobe
• sponges in forms of cats (budget friendly for a gift ,but so cute. It’s $5, so I would not buy it for myself)
• gift card to Lowe’s (because boycotting Home Depot due to funding trump)
• a white minimalist tray
Pretty wooden Cheese board and alcohol
Friend or family. If it’s close friend/family... a piece of art; if it’s a friend... some fun set of glasses to pour some in

Just sent friends some balcony planters
1. Simple human sensor soap foam dispenser
2. Ring Doorbell or Nest
3. 17ft gorilla ladder or Little giant (No joke it's a necessity)
If they are a super close friend/ family or simply you have the money- robot vacuum cleaner
I would go for the Neato D7, which can clean in the dark
Rising Star
Wine and a pre-paid cleaning service.
A trivet, sheet pans, plants, a gift card, and if you live in a location like me where the buildings don’t normally have aircon - a fan

Depends on your price range and what they already have. Sonos speaker would be awesome. Easy route - Home Depot or Lowe’s gift card. I swear we went to Home Depot almost every day for at least a month when we bought our first house.
Pro
An iPad lap holder (with a cushion under it). I got my boyfriend one of those and loves it, uses it every day!

Bubble bar and bubble boob from LUSH
