Promising review: "Overall, a good value, especially in this price range. The chair was easy to assemble and is well built. The mesh fabric for the seat and back provides good ergonomic support while keeping things cool for all-day use." —Amazon CustomerPrice: $139.99+ (originally $199.99+; available in two colors and three styles)
Up to 60% off a tiny glass mushroom lamp with big Murano Glass energy. This is a perfect lamp for those of us who need a little illumination but don't have that much space.

A Loftie Smart lamp that's $126 off because your nightstand deserves a literal glow-up. This matte-finished cutie will serve serious bedside sculpture while also waking you gently with a sunrise alarm, winding you down with red light, and syncing to your sleep app like the little wellness overachiever it is.
Promising review: "I love my Loftie lamp. It has helped me establish a better night and sleep routine. The night color setting and the wind down/bed signals have helped me with relaxing and going to sleep at a consistent time. I love the aesthetic and how it can fit with any space. I highly recommend ☺️" —Lindsay"The Loftie lamp has been wonderful for me. Instead of a jolt from my phone alarm, I am now woken up by a beautiful bright sunrise. I was skeptical at first because I thought the light wouldn't be bright enough to wake me up, but I was pleasantly surprised. It's introduced a whole new experience to my morning routine. The lamp also helps me wind down. About an hour before sleep, I have my alarm set to a red light that calms me and gets me ready for rest. The lamp itself is a nice modern/contemporary design and I love that it elevates the look in my entire room too." —Amazon CustomerPrice: $324 (originally $449.99)

Promising review: "I really like how this case is designed, and the easy access to the bits; it's definitely my go-to. While larger than the others, the design makes it much easier to use and keep things organized. I've yet to run into a screw that this set couldn't accommodate." —DismissedasDronePrice: $28.49 (originally $49.99)
Up to 39% off an ornate mirror that looks like it was stolen from a European palace, but somehow costs less than $100. With its baroque-inspired curves and detailing, it'll make your hallway, bathroom, or bedroom look infinitely more glamorous.
Promising review: "All I can say is woooow! This mirror is not only affordable, but the quality is amazing. It's heavy and not cheap looking. The gold color is not so tacky, and it's done just right. My main concern was receiving a broken mirror but the packaging was great and arrived in one piece. Don't hesitate buying this gem, you need it!" —Celeste CPrice: $84.99+ (originally $138.99+; sometimes $92.99 on Amazon; available in 10 sizes and five colors)
36% off an Echo Dot to provide you with the world's tiniest assistant. It can play almost any audio (podcasts, music, audiobooks, etc), give you answers to questions, help manage your other smart devices, and won't mess up the look of your home because it'll blend right in.
Promising review: "I have a pair of the small Echo Dot speakers and I love them so much that I'll be adding the larger one at some point. Our apartment is a small 1-BR, but there's this great picture ledge running all around the room that's deep enough for the speakers to sit on. I have them in different corners and they fill the room with sound. I nearly always have them streaming music from Pandora or Amazon Music while I work. Every now and then I'll connect to my phone via Bluetooth to play specific songs from YouTube. While they don't provide lots of really deep bass, I've been delighted with the overall quality of the speakers (and patting myself on the back for snagging two when they were 50% off last year)." —Bree V.Price: $31.99 (originally $49.99; available in three colors)
20% off a triple-threat ottoman, because it moonlights as a seat, will disguise your clutter, and can flip into a serving tray like it's no big deal. The velvet upholstery and gold hairpin legs make it feel way fancier than a place to stash your various living room remotes.
Another bonus? If you flip the lid over, it has a wooden base, so you can *also* use this as a teensy snack table. I recently got one of these for my new apartment to stash my candles and ~candle accessories~ in and it's pretty much become my favorite piece of furniture?? I use it to prop up my feet during work hours and sometimes if I want to eat on my couch I'll use it as a tray. It's also sturdy enough to sit on, if I ever wanted to have guests over and needed an extra chair. It was RIDICULOUSLY easy to set up — I had it done in less than 10 minutes, and probably didn't even need the directions. It also just looks so darn cute (and comes in so many colors that I'm tempted to buy another!).Price: $27.99 (typically $34.99; available in three colors)
40% off a melted disco ball sculpture that serves no real purpose except to look amazing, and honestly, that's enough. It's part art piece, part fever dream, and it'll instantly become the most unhinged, fabulous thing in any room you put it in.
Promising review: "I didn't realize how much I'd love this thing! It's added such a positive vibe to my living room. It catches my guest's attention immediately and they comment on how great it looks. The way the light interacts with it throughout the day adds a dynamic element to the room, making it feel more lively. I've even caught myself checking out my pixelated reflection in the mirror panels from time to time. It's not just a decor piece – it's a conversation starter and an instant mood booster." —VincentPrice: $29.97 (originally $49.99; available in two styles)
40% off a 65-inch Samsung Frame TV (matching its best-ever price) because why settle for a regular TV when you can have one that doubles as art? This is a TV when you want it to be and a stunning piece of wall art when you don't. Its anti-reflection matte display makes sure your shows look amazing, even in bright rooms, while the Art Mode lets you showcase your favorite artwork when the screen's off.
Promising review: "This TV is incredible, I would definitely recommend a professional installation if you don't know your way around cutting through a wall and installing a box to hide the wiring box for the frame, that is, if you want the authentic picture look with no wires. The frame adjusts to level like you would adjust a traditional framed photo, which was really convenient. The frame sound bar is definitely the way to go, and the remote to the frame has a solar charger and USB-C charging port, which begs the question: why aren't all TV remotes rechargeable?? Samsung really hit it out of the park with the frame TV, and the pairing with the frame soundbar, it's the best!" —Meghan RunnelsPrice: $1,197.96 (originally $1,997.99 — available in other sizes and shop the rest of Samsung's deals here)
20% off a splurgeworthy Breville Barista Touch espresso machine — matching its best price — to turn your kitchen into a high-end cafe. It grinds your beans, heats up in seconds, froths milk to your exact specs, and brews a perfect espresso. Trust me! I have one in my kitchen, and my husband uses it several times a day to make the world's greatest cup of espresso. Bellissimo!
BuzzFeed editor Melanie Aman says, "My partner and I had been on the fence about upgrading our coffee setup to include an espresso machine, but were always a bit leery about the price. Would we use it enough to make it worth it? Would it be a hassle to use? Would it take up a good chunk of our kitchen counters? Let me say that we are kicking ourselves for not getting one sooner! While this was a very thoughtful gift for my partner's birthday from his family, it is truly worth the price tag and is something I would totally repurchase with my own money if I ever needed to. We've used it pretty much every day since we got it, which means that the amount we've saved on espresso drinks at NYC coffee shops has pretty much covered the price of the machine. TBH, I don't even want to go get coffee elsewhere unless it's a super fancy, seasonal latte that I can't make at home.Using the machine is incredibly easy: It turns on with the push of a button and is ready to use in seconds — no waiting 20 minutes for the machine to warm up! The touchscreen, which I didn't think I needed initially, is a huge reason that I would recommend splurging on this model over its cheaper cousin, the Breville Barista Express (which is also on sale and a fan favorite, so still a solid option!). It's nice to toggle through the menu to select the drink you want. And the touchscreen walks you through each step, so the process doesn't seem so intimidating. You can even save custom drinks once you find the settings you like. We haven't had the machine long enough to have to descale it, but given how easy every other part of using and cleaning this machine is, I'm not super concerned.This has been a truly delightful addition to my kitchen, and if you're on the fence like I was, do it, do it, do it! You will not regret it!Price: $795.99 (originally $999.95; available in three colors)
Up to 26% off an aesthetically pleasing white noise machine and night-light that looks more like a James Turrell art installation than a baby gadget. With its soft glow and simple shape, it'll blend right into any nursery or nightstand, all while playing up to 34 soothing sounds (that you can control from your phone).
Promising review: "This machine is so wonderful. It's portable and rechargeable. It makes midnight changes for me and my husband so nice, we don't have to turn on a bright light and wake each other up. Its battery life is so long, and I love that it's a simple design and small so that it's easy to carry around with you. This is now one of my baby essentials with baby number two. I cannot recommend this product enough! It's a must-buy, in my opinion, and priced great because the quality is amazing. The app is super user-friendly!" —Kiana Price: $31.99 (originally $42.99)
24% off a set of farmhouse dining chairs to give your space that warm, lived-in look everyone's trying to pull off right now. The spindle backs, matte black finish, and solid wood construction feel classic without being fussy, and they'll look just as good with a rustic table as they will next to something more modern.
Promising review: "I redid my dining table and needed new chairs to match. These are simply wonderful. They opened up my entire room (my last chairs were big and bulky). My husband put six of them together pretty easy. It took him under an hour for all six chairs." —ADRIANA CARDENASPrice: $106.39+ (originally $132.99+; available in black or white, sets of two, four, and six, and with or without an upholstered seat)
23% off (its lowest price ever!) a 6-in-1 Our Place Dutch oven because a piece of lavender cookware will make your stove look dressed up even if you're just reheating some soup. It'll make stews, roasts, and breads feel even more special, and yes, it's oven-safe up to 500 degrees.
The pot also includes silicone Hot Grips and a Beechwood Scraper.Promising review: "This is love at first sight. This pot is amazing for rice, cereals, soups, etc. Gives an interesting flavor. It's a bit heavy but its made to last. The lid seals perfectly and given the fact that it's heavy it will keep the heat perfectly. Color is as in the picture. Really good value for the money." —MariaReyesPrice: $115 (originally $150 (and currently $145 at Our Place); available in two colors)
Up to 41% off a luxurious rainfall shower head combo set for making your bathroom feel more like a boutique hotel suite. The oversized all-metal head delivers full-body waterfall vibes, and the sleek, modern design will make even your grout lines feel fancy.
This set includes: a 10-inch rain shower head, a shower mixer valve control, a brass handheld shower head, a stainless steel shower hose, showerhead arm, and a brass shower bracket holder.Promising review: "This rainfall shower and handheld provide a luxury spa experience in the privacy of your own bathroom. They are made of substantial, high-quality materials, and look and feel "high-end." The rainfall shower is amazing, with perfect pressure combined with beauty. It encourages standing for long, relaxing showers, just enjoying the water as it falls over you. The hand held is magic for sore muscles or just to enjoy the massage like water. The diverter is easy to use. The price for such high-quality products is more than reasonable." —linda33Price: $199.99+ (originally $337.62+; available in four sizes and seven finishes — make sure to add the coupon for the extra $10 off)

Promising review: "Bought this light because I thought it was cool, but it is more than that! I use it every day, and it has many colors and patterns to choose from. The thing I love the most is you can set up times for it to come on and turn off. You can set how bright you want it, so I had it turned on with a dimmed light to help me wake up in early mornings." —Rueben ThaoPrice: $59.99 (originally $99.99; available in two colors)And check out more of Govee's Prime Day deals!
35% off a coastal outdoor loveseat with the kind of timeless beauty to elevate your patio or outdoor space. The eucalyptus wood frame, natural-tone cushions, and tapered arms will bring a sense of quiet elegance to any porch, balcony, or backyard setup.
Promising review: "I originally ordered only one loveseat, and after I received it, I immediately ordered another one. Along with ordering two loveseats, I ordered two end tables and a sofa table. LOVE THIS SET!! I would have easily paid double for this in a retail store if I'd seen it, but luckily, I didn't. The quality is far better than the price. I can be confident when I say you won't regret this purchase." —Marine Mom!! Stacey M. Charlotte, NCPrice: $580.57 (originally $887.78)
35% off a set of 22 Rubbermaid Brilliance containers (they've only been this discounted one other time in the past year) that'll have your fridge and pantry looking like it was professionally organized. It's made of BPA-free plastic that's designed to *stay* crystal clear and not absorb any odors. They're also leak-proof!
I bought this set a few Prime Days ago and it's one of my favorite Prime Day purchases ever. I LOVE these containers.Promising review: "For nearly all of my adult life, I was simply getting Gladware or Ziplock, letting them slowly deteriorate over the course of a few months, recycling them (or losing them), lather rinse repeat. It finally occurred to me to splurge on some good ones. I'm not one to review things very often, let alone food storage containers, but here we are. I've been so impressed and satisfied with these in just a few months that I feel compelled to tell y'all about them. They're super airtight, the plastic is crystal clear, and they've each been through the wash a dozen times with no particular sign of wear and tear yet. Usually by this point, the Ziplocs are cloudy, warped, have holes, etc. But these guys, they just keep ticking. We've put soup directly in them, frozen them, you name it. Worth the extra few bucks to keep a few more items out of the landfill." —Eric BeneauPrice: $84.99 (originally $129.99; smaller sets are also on sale)
Up to 40% off a round wall mirror to bring a refined, designer touch to any blank wall. Whether you hang it above a bathroom vanity or in your entryway, it'll add a bit of polish to wherever its hung.
Promising review: "This mirror was the perfect addition to our baby's nursery! The size is great for above the changing table. The color was exactly as described. It was so easy to hang and is very stable once hung. So glad I didn't spend hundreds on a mirror elsewhere!" —Alexis CarusoPrice: $34.46+ (originally $57; available in five sizes and three finishes)
30% off an upright smokeless fire pit — the lowest price it ever drops to! — that'll make your backyard hangs feel way more party-ready. The matte black design looks chic even when it's not lit, and the smokeless burn means no one goes home smelling like they wrestled a campfire.
Promising review: "This is an incredible smokeless fire pit! I've done two burns and I'm already in love with it! Not 100% smokeless, but darn near close. Who doesn't love a good fire? This unit should be on your short list." —Roberto Andrade Jr.Price: $275+ (originally $395+)
Up to 22% off the internet-famous Mellanni sheets so you can stay cool without cranking the A/C.

They hold up beautifully wash after wash, so you won't find yourself panic-buying new sheets in the middle of August.
Promising reviews: "I can't say enough good things about these sheets. I was waking up at night HOT all the time and thinking it was a physical thing for me personally. I was reading online and stumbled on these and thought 'Hmmm...wonder if my uber-expensive sheets are actually making me hot at night??' I ordered these and I'm sleeping like a baby now. No more night sweats. Ordering some for my son as well. Game changer! High quality and exceptional price." —J. Marshall"I read from other reviews these sheets were soft so I wasn't too surprised when I received them and man are they soft and so comfortable. We have Egyptian cotton sheets that were expensive and I promise we have changed them back out for the comfort of these sheets. The cotton sheets were cold and these were just right. The other thing is my husband has thin skin that any nick he will bleed. Well he has bled on these white sheets and when we washed them (in cold water as instructed) the blood always comes out and never stains. I can't say enough great things about them except to say all three of my adult kids are receiving a set as part of their Christmas!" —Sheree ChrestmanPrice: $30.57 (typically $39.20; available in sizes twin–California king, plus sheet sets with deep pockets for taller mattresses and 45 colors and patterns)

Between the curved corners, sliding tambour doors, and warm wood finish, this piece will look right at home in your entryway, dining room, or anywhere else that could use a little under-the-radar. glamor.
Promising review: "We love our new cabinet! This was the perfect addition to our cozy space. It was easy to build without compromising sturdiness. The look of this cabinet is very on-trend, yet timeless. The color looks just like the product images. Reasonable pricing for the look and quality." —EdgarDCPrice: $475 (originally $595; available in three finishes)
20% off a pair of Beckham Hotel Collection pillows that strike the magical balance of soft *and* supportive. They're dense enough that. you won't need to re-full at 3 a.m., breathable enough to stay cool all night, and loved by reviewers who basically live in hotels.
Promising review: "I decided to trust a TikTok that I saw featuring these pillows and checked out the reviews here and saw the hype. They are SERIOUSLY THE BEST PILLOWS EVER! Trust the reviews. Took two minutes to fluff up to use and both my fiancé and I are having the best sleeps now." —EllenPromising review: "These had great reviews but I was still a bit skeptical. I'm a bit of a pillow snob. These pillows — these amazing, heavenly pillows — are now my favorite part of going to bed. Soft but firm. How does that work? It gives support for me to sleep slightly propped up but I sink into this comfortable personal cloud. Soft, but firm. My head isn't sinking through the pillow to rest on my mattress, but I feel comfortably enveloped. Buy them. Add to cart. Buy now with one click. Stop the research. You've found the pillows you were looking for." —Marissa UreyPrice: $47.98 for the queen size (typically $59.99)

Promising review: "I recently bought this air fryer. It has a sleek design and cool color, adding a modern touch to my kitchen. Setting up was a breeze, and the user-friendly control panel makes it easy to adjust settings depending on what I am cooking. Efficient cooking, consistent results, and easy cleanup make it the perfect addition to my kitchen. Overall a very solid choice!" —Xinkai ChenPrice: $183.99+ (typically $229.99; available in six colors)
$70 off a Marshall Acton III speaker (the lowest you can get it for) that'll double as both audio gear *and* decor. The retro design looks like something you'd find in a rock legend's living room, and it pumps out rich, room-filling sound that reviewers say is shockingly easy to set up and control.
Promising review: "Truly an outstanding speaker. This little giant delivers incredible sound, crisp, clear vocals and rich bass. I had it up and running with a MAC in less than 3 minutes out of the box, no need for their app. Excellent bluetooth connectivity, strong, consistent connection. I've been musing for years what compact speaker system to buy for years, very glad I chose his one." —itsdinkPrice: $199.99 (typically $279.99; available in black and cream — the midnight blue is not on sale)

Promising review: "I love an iced white chocolate mocha latte, and now I can make them at home. I love the Nespresso machine so much that I use it every day. It is a little loud, but I don't care. It makes the best espressos. The little tray is super easy to clean off and actually catches the drips at the end. I really like how the water container can move around to fit wherever you need it to go. It gets hot enough to melt the chocolate chips I put in my cup. This is great. It helps me save money on coffee, and I can tell it's pretty durable! I use it at least two times a day, and I've never had any issues with it opening or closing." —Kyra MalkowskiPrice: $109.85 (originally $169)
20% off a set of flower petal dessert glasses so everything from your puddings to cocktails look like they belong in a lifestyle shoot. GORGEOUS!
Promising review: "Stunning! I have been seeing a lot of fun drinkware at stores recently. However, the glass is always paper thin and looks to fragile to be used. So I gave these ones a try. Yes, these are it! The glass is thick, the stem it sturdy, the colors are fun, the shape is interesting. I am obsessed. You'll find me sipping my lemon water out of these from now on!" —AmandaPrice: $17.59 for a set of two (typically $21.99; available in two styles)
24% off a set of super absorbent checkered hand towels that'll immediately wake up any boring kitchen or bathroom. They're cute, colorful, and basically the easiest way to jazz up a neutral space. This is the lowest price these ever drop to.
Promising review: "Best kitchen/hand towels I have found on Amazon yet. I get so many compliments on these!! Just bought some for my sister and mom, they love them so much. Soft and absorbent, just the right thickness, has some wear and tear after just a couple of months, but we use them daily and have washed and dried them a lot. Definitely worth the price." —CA Price: $17.47 for a set of four (typically $22.99; available in five color options)

Promising review: "This is a cheesecloth material but it's kind of like if cheesecloth met chiffon and had a love child. It looks so high quality and has a silky touch to it. I was very surprised at how nice it looks! The color is excellent and doesn't look cheap at all. I just wish they had it in navy blue or a midnight blue and I would be even more impressed. Def buy if you are on the fence!" —ChristinaPrice: $9.98 (originally $12.99; available in 16 colors)

27 Best At-Home Workout Products For Gym Haters
A folding treadmill because the only enormous downside of owning a treadmill is the fact that it usually takes up an entire room.

Or a small under-the-desk treadmill if you're more interested in something you can use while you're working at a standing desk or just using as a walking pad. Gotta get those 10,000 steps done somehow! Promising review: "I've had this for almost two years and use it several times a week under my standing desk.

A digital jump rope for transforming your favorite childhood hobby into a fun and effective sweat sesh. Promising review: "I bought this thanks to a TikTok influencer, and honestly, I'm glad I did. I wanted a way to exercise that was both fun and did not include going into a gym, and a jump rope seemed the perfect solution. I love the counter — that was the draw — but it also counts your calories and the amount of time that you've spent jumping to track your progress. I will say jumping rope is not as easy as I remember as a child, but I'm excited to continue using this product and get better and better at it. Definitely worth the purchase." —Nicole OGet it from Amazon for $10.39 (available in five colors).

I have the 25 pounds and it's durable, looks good, and performs as it should. I like that the bell is coated in nonslip vinyl, which I feel is gentler on floors if you're using this in your home. I've had mine since 2020, and it still works great and shows no signs of wear and tear." —paigeGet it from Target for $16+ (available in 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, and 30 pound sizes).

From running, to walking uphill both ways to work (yes, this is possible), to wearing heels all day, my calves were tight. Nothing has been working. This roller was a godsend. I actually have more mobility after using it than traditional stretching, and I think there was a knot in each calf that it worked out. This is a must-have." —RavenGet it from Amazon for $31.82 (available in two colors). A set of resistance bands to really make yourself feel the burn on leg day. These are super easy to bring out whenever you need to kick things up a notch and store away super tiny, unlike a lot of gym equipment. Promising review: "I love the fact that these are nonstick and don't bunch up or down in your workouts. A huge peeve of mine was when the rubber resistance band twirled up or down during an exercise. These stay on you, but don't stick to your body, giving a more comfortable workout and performance. They're also thick enough to keep steady on leg raises or kickbacks." —giuseppe valentinoGet a three-pack from Amazon for $13.28+ (available in three colors). A set of core sliders that essentially turn your entire floor into a piece of exercise equipment if you have wood, laminate, tile, or other smooth surfaces to work with. I always think using these will be "easy" and sure enough, I get destroyed every time. Promising review: "These gliding disc core sliders have been working out great! They are definitely taking my workouts to a new level and making me use my core like never before! You can definitely feel the burn while working out with them and target muscles that don't normally get as much attention!" —ColeenGet it from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in four colors). A versatile mat you can fold up depending on how much surface area and cushion is ideal for your activity. From a full-size mat for yoga to a thicker, smaller pad for pushups, it's got you covered. Stakt is a woman-founded small business specializing in workout mats!Promising review: "I first came across this mat while scrolling TikTok and thought it was such a cool idea. Ever since I saw it, it has been on my wish list. Rolling up a yoga mat can be so challenging sometimes, especially when you're in the middle of the workout and need some extra support on your wrist while in plank. This mat folds up in fourths, so you can give your knees or hands some extra padding. Plus, it's way easier to store flat. It's also two times thicker than the average yoga mat." —Former BuzzFeed editor Abby Kass Get it from Stakt for $88 (available in five colors). A pack of dumbbell exercise cards to help you find a little more inspiration in your weighted exercises. Working out at home is nice, but it means you get fewer ideas from seeing what other people are up to at the gym. Consider these cards your at-home gym buddy. Promising review: "These are great for building your own routine, or even picking random cards on days when you don't want to think about it." —Teresa278Get it from Amazon for $14.29 (available in tons of other workout formats as well). A Ubarre weight because even though it's super useful to have weights at home, figuring out how to store them is a hassle, especially if you're in a smaller space. This weight is specifically designed to discreetly be displayed on a shelf when not in use. Neat! A Gaiam yoga mat so you can stretch and strengthen your entire body — and maybe even quiet that restless mind of yours — right in your living room. Cue up a free yoga class vid and you're good to go. Promising review: "I've been using this yoga mat for months now, and I love it. The design is cute, and it never slips, even when I'm doing a more active yoga sculpt." —MollyGet it from Amazon for $17.97 (available in 24 colors). And a nonslip yoga towel if you — like me — have hands and feet on the sweatier side and want to feel super secure on your mat, especially when you're really workin' it. Promising review: "I absolutely love these towels. I've bought three so far. They cover my mat completely and help to not slip when doing hot yoga. I've tried a lot of mat towels and this is by far the best." —SierraGet it from Amazon for $17.95 (available in six colors and in a smaller hand/face towel size). A Kettle Gryp for transforming any humdrum dumbbell into a kettlebell right before your very eyes. Getting a good workout in *and* saving money on equipment? Love it. Promising review: "Love this for my home gym. Dumbbells are expensive, and kettlebells are even more expensive, so I was intrigued when I saw this attachment. It's hard plastic and feels good in the hands; it's what I expected. I use this grip to do kettlebell swings, squats, Romanian and straight-leg deadlifts, and other basic exercises. Happy with my purchase and glad I can use the dumbbells I already have." —Lauren J. Get it from Amazon for $34.95. An Echelon smart exercise bike so you can take a spin class at home without spending a complete mint like on some other bikes. But like those other bikes, this one features magnetic resistance to increase difficulty during your ride, and a 30-day free trial to Echelon's live and on-demand classes (there are over 3,000 of them!) is included. A set of weighted Bala Bangles to add a bit of extra resistance to your workouts whenever you want to kick things up a notch. They're also just really cute and count as an accessory with your leggings 'fit, tbh. A tiny elliptical with eight resistance levels to help give your legs and bum a nice workout, even if you're stuck at your desk or just aren't feeling a big ol' workout that day. Promising review: "I've been working remotely and spending more time than I like on the sofa. With the Cubi Jr, I pedal constantly while working and watching TV, and feel my legs, thighs, buttocks, and ankles are at least being active. I pedal anytime I sit because you don't realize you're pedaling." —MarionGet it from Amazon for $174.99. A weighted hoop to bring out your sense of childlike wonder as you strengthen your core. Round and round and round she goes! Promising review: "I've been using this three to four times per week for over two years now. It stays together, shows no signs of wear, and I still love using it! I bought this because I wanted to tone my abs without doing crunches. Using this hoop, I saw noticeable results within the first month. It has improved my overall core strength. I started out at just a few minutes per day and did experience some bruising while I was getting used to it." —sbGet it from Amazon for $39.49. An ab roller for anyone who's ready to break up with crunches. Personally, I can do about 0.5 rolls on one of these, and it feels like a huge accomplishment. I dare you to beat me! Promising review: "Normally I'm not one to go out and buy the latest fitness product. I had a 'classic' ab wheel I used, but wanted something sturdy with resistance and safe. Additionally, I was seeking a product that would give me a quick ab workout with minimal risk of injury. Here is where the Ab Carver Pro steps in. It has resistance, is safe and stable to use, and is versatile in terms of different directions of movement." —GilGet it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in two styles). A Pilates ring that'll help activate and tone your arms, core, and legs with juuuust the right amount of resistance. Promising review: "This thing is amazing. There is a myriad of workouts online to follow along using a 'Magic Circle', aka Pilates ring. It would easily tuck into a suitcase for workouts on the road as well! Great for tacking on to longer workouts or all on its own. You can use it for any part of your body. Why did it take me so long to discover this!?" —E. TrostGet it from Amazon for $23.95+ (available in six colors). A pair of push-up bars for keeping your wrists comfortable and in the ideal position for the most classic exercise move of all. Promising review: "The first time I used them, I felt a burn (the good kind) in the back/neck area. I looked up a diagram of musculature online, and it corresponded precisely with the trapezius muscles. I know that a product can't cure laziness, but knowing that I'm doing push-ups the right way and being able to feel the results makes me want to do more push-ups." —mbcaGet them from Amazon for $39.99. A set of Blogilates resistance bands with handles so you can get your curls on, rock some flies, and overall get a great arm, back, and chest workout in. This set comes with three bands in three different levels, so you can up the intensity as you get stronger. Promising review: "I wasn't sure if I'd use these that often, but I totally do! I love using them at home, kind of like how I'd use a cable machine if I were at a gym. My favorite move is stepping on the middle of the band, leaning over, and doing a rear delt fly for my back muscles. They're also perfect for travel, and you can really do a lot with them. Bonus that the colors are so cute!" —LaurenGet a set of three from Target for $22.99. And finally, some easy-to-apply anti-chafe balm because the devil works hard, but chafing works harder. Luckily, Body Glide works the hardest of all. Promising review: "This stuff really is awesome. It really works, and I don't know where it has been all my life. I started looking for something for thigh chafing after running into a few issues (not fun). It is super easy to use, just slide it on like you'd use deodorant." —SweetPeaGet it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in three sizes and packs of two).

You get over 30,000 seeds (!!!) across 23 varieties, so even if half of them ghost you, you'll still end up with a bloom-filled backyard. Seed Needs is a family-owned small business in Michigan that makes seed packets. Promising review: "I bought this package hoping to attract butterflies. It did not disappoint. I have the opposite of a green thumb, and this was super easy. I couldn't tell you the names of any flowers, but we have at least six different types. I overseeded a smaller area, so I will probably make the area larger or only do half the seeds next year. We can go outside at any time and see our beautiful flowers and SO many butterflies! 10/10" —Tesa TaylorGet it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in four mixes and two sizes). An outdoor rug for an instant (and cheap!) way to make your outdoor space look pulled together.

Great price for a great quality rug." —Amazon CustomerGet it from Amazon for $37+ (available in 14 sizes and three colors). Some solar-powered stair lights that'll keep your stairs from turning into a tripping hazard after dark. They're waterproof, they charge themselves (bless), and they'll make your stairs look like the runway your guests deserve. Promising review: "Where I live, it's so dark and I have no outside electricity off my screened-in deck. I wanted lights for my stairs for safety and found these lights, which work and look great! They come with everything you need to fasten them to the stairs so they don't fall off as well. I even bought extra and tested them in the event that the ones that are currently outside get damaged for any reason, and they are no longer sold. Definitely recommend for the price, nice and bright, and easy installation.

An inflatable pool for taking a dip whenever you please. No packing a bag and heading to the local pool required. It has a built-in bench and a couple of cupholders, too! And a dog/kiddie pool so the tiny tots and furry friends in your life have a safe spot to splash, too. This folds up for easy storage when not in use and doesn't need to be inflated to work. A Chomp! oil stain remover to finally get rid of those nasty spots on your patio and walkways. Just smear on the thick gel, let it dry, and peel it up. It's heavy-duty help for the kind of stain that you thought was permanent. Promising review: "I went in skeptical, I'm not going to lie. We had grease spilled on our brand-new paver patio. The grease had been sitting for a few weeks, and I saw an ad for this stuff. I ordered it to try because why not? Well, I'll be damned because this took the spots right off! No evidence we ever spilled anything! I'd buy it again." —SusanGet it from Amazon for $17.97.

The rules of the complex are neutral as far as furniture is concerned. And so I spent forever looking for something that would fit the color scheme, plus be cute and comfortable. I am so so happy with this purchase. The table and chairs are not only a good size, but they are tall! I myself am almost 6 foot tall, and to not have to lean over with a patio set is really cool. The cushions are very comfortable, and the setup was extremely easy. Highly recommend." —Ashley kGet it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in three colors). A triangular sail to block harmful UV rays and also provide you with necessary shade. A simple way to create a relaxing area. The corners of the sails have D rings so you can attach them to whatever you'd like with your choice of hardware or review: "Purchased this to increase privacy and provide some shade. The color is vibrant, hasn't faded, and the loops are well-stitched. The sail has also fared well in winds, thunderstorms, monsoon rain, and the brutal heat of Vegas. Shade is wonderful and one can definitely feel the temperature difference from full sun to being under this sail. The look and feel compliments our pool area and will certainly be purchasing an additional one." —VHC MediaGet it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in a variety of sizes and 16 colors/patterns).

This little setup is basically the pregame to a garden glow-up: it comes with everything you need to start a whole lineup of veggies, herbs, or flowers indoors before sending them out to thrive in the wild (aka your raised beds). Plus, it's way more fun than impulse-buying yet another sad basil plant from the grocery store. The kit has space for up to 72 seedlings in cells measuring 1.5" x 1.5" x 2" each. Entire tray is 10" x 20" x 5". Recommended for use with a heat mat to promote germination. Once sprouts emerge, use a plant grow light or place near a well-lit review: "As an avid gardener, I've found this kit to be an essential tool for starting seeds and nurturing young plants before transplanting them into the garden. Each cell is sturdy and well-designed, ensuring proper airflow and drainage to promote healthy root development. The included greenhouse dome helps retain moisture and warmth, promoting optimal germination and seedling growth. Incredibly user-friendly, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced gardeners alike. The included growing medium is pre-fertilized and ready to use, eliminating the need for additional soil amendments and saving time during the planting process. Highly recommend." —Blondie16Get it from Amazon for $19.99. And a pack of the 20 most popular vegetable seeds to basically turn your vegetable beds into your own organic produce market. From beets and cucumbers to cabbage and okra, there are enough seeds to grow plenty of produce year-round. A three-piece wicker chair and table set for under $100 that doesn't look like it came from the dusty clearance corner of a big-box store. You get two cushioned chairs, a glass-top table, and the undeniable satisfaction of leveling up your outdoor space without blowing your budget. A two-pack of solar-powered outdoor lantern lights to add just the right amount of illumination to your backyard. Because they don't require electricity, you can hang them and then not worry about maintenance. Promising review: "My goodness, I did not expect to love these lanterns as much as I do. They are very, very good quality and display lots of light. I hung both of them between my small patio and English garden, and they provided enough light for both areas. I received them late afternoon, so they got about four hours in the sun. At 9 p.m., both came on like clockwork. I got up at 3 a.m. to check if they were still on, and they were as bright as ever. They are so dang cute and unique in my yard. I will be buying more. Love, Love, Love them." —Dog TailorGet it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in three styles). An outdoor inflatable ottoman so you can kick your feet up after a long day. It's fade- and water-resistant, and deflates for easy storage when not in use. Just inflate the interior pouf and stick it inside the printed, water-resistant review: "Love these! Ordered two more. The fabric is very nice and sturdy especially for outdoors. The inflatable part appears to be good quality. How to: Place inflatable inside of cover before inflating it. Do not inflate to full capacity or it will look like an inflatable and will not rest in a nice flat position. Far nicer than I imagined. They look great flanking my outdoor rattan sectional." —Cali gGet it from Amazon for $36.99 (available in 18 fabric patterns). A colorful small raised garden bed that costs less than takeout and looks like it came from a Crayola collab. It's tall enough to save your back, compact enough for small spaces, and colorful enough to count as decor. A cheerful little upgrade for anyone flirting with the idea of gardening. Promising review: "I searched all over for a planter small enough to fit on my porch. I'm so happy I came across this one. There really isn't anything out there right now that's 1. This size, and 2. This price. It's exactly what I was looking for, and I was able to plant six herbs in it. Assembly was easy but it helps if you have an extra hand to hold the pieces together. It's made out of metal and feels very sturdy. It has a drain hole, which is a plus. I highly recommend this, especially if you are limited on space." —ChristineGet it from Amazon for $35.18+ (available in three styles). An instant mold and mildew stain remover spray to take your patio, siding, or outdoor furniture from "abandoned for decades" to "ready for guests" in seconds. Just spray it on and watch the gunk disappear like magic. It's powerful, a little smelly, and kind of a miracle if you've been neglecting your exterior for who knows how long. And a glassworks wind chime for adding some gorgeous color to your outdoor space. Nearly all wind chimes are metal or neutral tones — which is fine! — but it's refreshing to find an option that has a bit more flair.

Summer Hair Rescue: 27 Products That Actually Work
Ouidad's Advanced Climate Control Featherlight Styling Cream because reviewers swear by this for getting sleek, defined, frizz-free curls and waves. Many say that this product *actually* works, unlike so many others that claim the same. A deep conditioning coconut oil hair mask that's safe to use on all hair types (including colored hair), thanks to its formula of simple-but-nourishing ingredients like shea butter, rosehip seed oil, argan oil, vitamin E, vitamin B5, and coconut oil. Soft and frizz-free hair for everyone during the summer! Promising review: "I was looking for a product for my hair after all of the summer swimming/chlorine dries it out. I went with this product because the ingredient list was limited to things I can actually understand. I was pleasantly surprised by the result. After one use, my hair is softer and shinier, and I didn't even have to style it. Definitely would recommend." —Ray Ray"This is my replacement for the Macadamia Intense Repair Masque. The Macadamia mask is SUPER expensive and is not worth the money. This however, basically does the same thing to my hair and is much cheaper. I really recommend this to people who have dyed hair, dry hair, dead hair, frizzy hair, chlorinated hair. Just really damaged or damaged hair. It's really good." —Wanisha SiripakdiGet it from Amazon for $13.49. A Denman Hair Brush because it's not your typical brush. Thanks to the evenly spaced bristles, it can detangle and shape curls simultaneously, and according to reviewers, this helps keep their curls defined and frizz-free all day long (even in the humidity). A hair-finishing stick to smooth down any and all stubborn fly aways. The secret? It's just a mascara wand coated in natural hair oils. Simple, but effective. Or, an Emi Jay hair smoothing stick for quick touch-ups and on-the-go slicking throughout the day. This is small enough to slip in your belt bag *plus* it's made from a vegan formula that nourishes, softens, and conditions your hair and scalp while ~keeping things in place~. Promising review: "Surprisingly good at taming my hair even in humid weather, keeps my style looking neat and in place, really happy I found it." —samrich1106Get it from Sephora for $38. Or for yet another option, an edge control gel that boasts a lightweight feel and long-lasting hold power — we're talking up to 24 hours in hot, humid weather, people! Basically, if you want to lay your baby hairs and edges without any flaking, get this. L'Oreal Paris Elvive 8 Second Wonder Water since it'll help reverse hair damage and leave you with silky smooth locks in just eight seconds. Talk about a fast fix, especially when you need to get ready for a summer special occasion! A beard straightener, which is basically a heated comb that'll transform your beard's aesthetic from unruly "Appalachian Trail Through-Hiker" to "Smooth, Sleek City-Slicker." The Olaplex Hair Perfector No. 3 treatment for anyone who's ready to ~throw in the towel~ and give up on fixing their chlorine-damaged hair. Reviewers absolutely rave about this pre-shampooing treatment with many saying it "saved" their seemingly beyond-hope hair. Or, K18's Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask that achieves similar salon-esque results only with a slightly different technology. K19 relies on a patented peptide formula to repair heat-, color-, and chlorine-damaged hair deep at the molecular level (specifically by repairing broken keratin chains). Science lesson aside, if you want to restore your tresses from the inside out, this is for you! A multi-award-winning anti-frizz spray to help deliver princess-perfect, glass-like hair, no matter what the weather is outside. This locks out moisture and humidity and can even last for up to four shampoos! A spray bottle of SoCozy Curl Spray Leave-In Conditioner since it works double duty to detangle unruly curls *and* keep 'em frizz-free. Parents of curly-haired kids love this stuff! A eucalyptus mint hair serum formulated with all-natural ingredients because it's basically the Wonder Woman of hair products. Massage a few drops into the scalp to hydrate and help minimize dry skin or use a few drops on split ends and roots to tame frizz, prevent breakage and heat damage, lock in moisture, and boost shine. Some folks use it as a leave-in conditioner, too! Jeesh, this stuff really can do it all! 🦸 I received a sample of this hair serum with some of their protein powder, and wow, I am so impressed. I first used it as on my scalp — I've always struggled with a dry scalp, and this made an immediate difference. I left it on overnight, and by the next morning, my scalp felt so much healthier, and it wasn't nearly as itchy as it usually is. A few days later, I applied it to my very dry split ends. It noticeably improved the look and feel. I can confirm it definitely makes hair shinier and works as a quick-fix for frizzy hair (which I seem to be plagued with six days of the week, at least). Since my hair is fine, most styling products tend to be too heavy, but this oil feels very light in the hair, and it smells heavenly. 😍 I don't have a very expansive collection of hair styling products, but this one has made the cut! It's a new must-have for me. Promising reviews: "LOVE this JI product. As a Floridian with long curly hair, humidity is not my friend, but I have truly found this product to tame my frizz." —Jennifer L."I just started using this product after I tried a few other things that worked great. So far, I love how my hair feels. I live in Louisiana, and not much helps with frizzing with the humidity. This truly made a difference after two uses. Thank you!" —mccall it from Just Ingredients for $35.99. A TikTok-famous rinse-out hair treatment featuring ceramides, collagen, and other nourishing ingredients that'll leave your hair extra smooth and shiny in just five minutes — and without breaking the bank to boot! Reviewers of all hair types are super impressed by how well it keeps the frizz at bay. Kenra's Platinum Blow-Dry Spray (which is also a heat-protectant and anti-frizz spray) so all your precious time and energy spent styling your hair doesn't go to waste the second you step outside. Better still, this makes blow drying your hair go twice as fast! A nonaerosol I Dew Care "Tap Secret" mattifying powder shampoo if muggy, sticky days make your hair oilier than a greased baking sheet. Simply sprinkle some of this onto your roots and gently massage it in — suddenly you'll have clean, fresh locks with a touch of volume for added confidence! Philip Kingsley Swimcap, a water-resistant hair mask specifically designed to protect hair from the drying effects of chlorine, salt water, and UV rays.

It was first developed at the request of the US Olympic Synchronized Swimming Team!Promising reviews: "This is a must-have for your holidays. It protects your hair, in my case, colour-treated hair, from the sun and chlorine pool water. Smells good too. You can use it when you're swimming at home, too!" —Deborah H."Protects hair on my daily swim and prevents frizz and dryness that you would otherwise get from exposure to chlorine." —Jacqui it from Philip Kingsley for $36+ (available in two sizes).
