A self-stirring multi cooker for those of us whose grown-up version of a fairy godmother would be a private chef. This dream machine uses an automatic paddle to shred meats and stir soups and stews so you can spend less time in the kitchen and more snuggling on the couch. Cooking dinner problem? SOLVED.
Promising review: "Works as advertised. Made apple butter without it sticking. Cleaned super easy, basically rinsed it out with some soapy water. No scrubbing." —ElizabethPrice: $64 (originally $99)
A rubber squeegee brush to scrape up your four-legged bestie's shedding efforts is especially needed if your pet has the dreaded summer coat blowout that makes your house resemble a fur factory more than a home. The handle extends up to 60 inches to ensure you can get all the hair in one cleaning go. Even though it's ideal to use on carpets, it can also be used on any floor type. Not to mention, the other end works as a squeegee to take care of any liquid spills!
Promising review: "Wow! I was a little skeptical on the dog hair and couldn't believe how well this worked. Once you get the right angle it pulls up anything and the dust that is trapped. The carpet looks brand-new. 🤩" —ChristinePrice: $20.40
A pack of two Clorox drain snakes if you're disgusted with the water building up in your tub when you shower. Don't be surprised if you pull out a whole wig's worth of hair from your drain. Plus, it's much quicker and cheaper than calling a plumber!
Promising review: "Wow! Most impressive. The design is much better than their competitor because of all the extra grabber prongs. It's flexible and flat…I didn't even have to remove the stopper! Instantly grabbed onto/removed hair that had surprisingly built up. Would have bought this years ago with these kind of fast acting results in a few seconds." —NPPrice: $3.98
An all-purpose car upholstery cleaner because if you're like me and your car is your home-away-from-home during the summer, you want it to be in tip-top shape, too. BUT it can also be used on carpet and upholstery in your home, so basically it's a wonder bottle and deserves a permanent spot in your cleaning lineup.
Promising review: "I use this power foam all the time to remove stains and odors from my vehicles carpets. Having a toddler that makes big spills and messes is easier with this product. I recommend." —LayciPrice: $5.97
A bamboo bath mat fitted with rubber stoppers to keep you from slipping and sliding after a rinse-off. If you want your bathroom to feel more sauna and less MEH, this is an easy, quick upgrade that'll have you psyched to step into your space. (Bye-bye, sad old soggy bath mat!)
Promising review: "The suction cups on the bottom are a really nice addition to this mat. It's not slippery, even when stepping out soaking wet. Plus, it looks so much better than a traditional bath mat!" —LandenPrice: $22.96
An AirDoctor air purifier that'll help clean the air for you so you can live your optimal indoor comfy life. Reviewers swear these help cut back on those pesky allergens that have us all blowing our noses and wiping our teary eyes right about now. This one, in particular, has an UltraHEPA filter that catches super-fine things like pet dander, bacteria and viruses, and even dust and pollen. GOODBYE, TISSUES. Hello, air purifier!
I was INCREDIBLY dubious about air purifiers... .and then I got one. Our air is so crisp and also it helps cut back on cooking smells that usually linger forever. (Looking at you bacon and anything with the appropriate amount of garlic.) I'm never going back to living without one, now. Seriously. Price: $434.94 (originally $629)
A rust stain-removing gel because, no judgment, if your toilet stains are going on 10 years or so, but this will improve the look of your bathroom (and therefore the general ~vibe~) in less than five minutes. You're welcome.
Promising review: "I couldn't figure out what was causing the brownish stripes in the toilet bowl, so I tried different products — a pumice stick, limescale remover, etc, but the stripes kept coming back! I checked the toilet tank and learned it was rust from the tank, so I bought this and left half a cup overnight, and cleaned the bowl in the morning, and it looks way better than before. Definitely recommend." —KayleyPrice: $19.78 (originally $40)
And a Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamp I've used for literally years because I like my cleaning efforts to last until the next hyper-fixation cleaning phase. These things seriously ~stick around~ and help keep your bowl clean for so long. Clean once, stamp once, and forget about it for a good month or so. (Sometimes I'm wild and stamp twice because it's fun, okay?)
Promising reviews: "These work!! Toilet stays cleaner longer. When the gel disappears, I do a quick scrub and press on a new gel stamp. Easy! Years ago, I used the type of product you hang or drop into the tank. Those softened the rubber flapper, causing water loss. These go into the toilet bowl instead of the tank, so there isn't any damage to the flapper seal." —sewcountry"I love that I can put one pod at the water line, and that's it for one week. It keeps my bowl clean and smelling fresh for a week and saves me the extra work of cleaning the bowl several times during the week." —PhillipPrice: $13.87
A 2-in-1 table and desk fan with a sleek and modern appearance that gives it an 💨air💨 of sophistication. Not to mention that it can switch between oscillating horizontally AND vertically. No getting up from your chair to adjust it to your liking, either. This thing has a REMOTE. 2015 you can only imagine the magic that is coming their way in a decade.
Y'all. This fan is truly magical. I got it for my home office, but now it's so beloved it gets taken from room to room in the house. Versatile, light, super easy to switch between its standing height and desk/table height, and it has 24 speeds, so you can truly design the breeze to your liking...The joke is on me for hyping it up to my friends and family because now they've all threatened to steal mine or accept one as a gift. I know fall and winter are on our doorstep, but if you're in a warmer climate (*raises hand from Texas*) or just don't like the stale, still air that can happen in the wintertime and want a little "oomph" to your home environment, this fan is the ticket. Price: $149.99
A Keurig K-Cafe smart single serve coffee, latte, and cappuccino maker I can testify is the bougiest (and most affordable!) caffeine deliverer around. IT COMES WITH A MILK FROTHER. I can't emphasize what a game-changer this is. Plus, it's *actually* smart. It can read the barcode on the K-Cups and give you recipe options to fully personalize your morning brew if one of your problems is "too much outside coffee." Your budget thanks you in advance for snagging one of these miracle machines.
If you need K-Cup recs to get yourself started, I've got you: Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Tea K-cups and Eight O'Clock medium roast K-cups. Thank me later.Price: $199.99
And a stainless-steel self-heating mug so you can make your coffee or tea and not have to GUZZLE IT like a beverage fiend before it gets cold. This handy mug and lil' charging base have three adjustable temperatures so that you can find the ~perfect~ brew for you!
Promising review: "It's a great product! It keeps the beverage hot, and the product design is great. No negative feedback. You simply plug in the base, choose your desired temperature, or take the cup (it has a lid) on the go as it has a warmer in the sealed bottom. It's perfect for any beverage that you want to keep hot." —MMPrice: $39.98 (available in three colors)
A cooktop cleaner kit if your stove is a little crusty from all that cooking you've been doing. This works for all types of stove tops, no matter if you have gas, induction, or electric, so get to scrubbing and wow yourself with how quickly your kitchen goes from "meh" to "ah."
This kit includes cleaning cream, a scrubbing pad, and a scraper, so you've got everything you need to wipe this task off your to-do list. Promising review: "I was mad about having to get the whole kit when all I wanted was the scrubber but I love the scrubber as much as I thought I would and will buy refills of the red scrubber pads for the handle. I had previously used a 4-inch glass scraper, which got almost everything, and this scrubber got the rest really fast and easy. Following up with Weiman everyday spray got the haze off :-)" —JenniferPrice: $7.36
A set of Mr. Clean Magic Erasers because some messes need the big guns, and for that, we call Mr. Clean. (That man must work out almost as much as these sponges do after my kid has finished an arts and crafts day at the kitchen table.)
Promising review: "These are the best cleaning product I ever purchased! I couldn't believe how clean everything was after I used them. I have arthritis in my hands so cleaning and scrubbing isn't as easy as it once was, just a gentle swipe and grime and dirt are gone, that simple. Definitely try them." —AJPrice: $8.94 for a seven-pack
A four-shelf shower caddy that'll transform your home bathroom into the hotel-like experience of your dreams and keep you from slipping on your loofah again. If stacks and stacks of disorganized shower stuff have you down, pick yourself and your space up with this handy wish-I-had-it-sooner organizing gadget.
Promising review: "Item is more substantial than I was expecting. Only using three of the four shelves. Easy to assemble. Very pleased with the item." —NancyVPrice: $27.46 (originally $30.77)
A nine-piece pantry and fridge storage bin set to help you revitalize the look of your fridge and make it easier for everyone to find after-school-snackage. Save yourself from knocking stuff over in pursuit of that one pickle jar ever again and make your fridge look fab every time you open it.
Promising review: 'I can't believe how clean this keeps my refrigerator. Now if I have something with the potential of making a mess, it goes in the bins.' —gieseler4Price: $30
An over-the-door towel holder everyone, including your guests, will appreciate because nobody likes to guess where to hang their wet towel when they're done drying off from the shower. This takes the guesswork and the puddles out of the equation.
It also has holes for wall-mounting if you'd prefer!Promising review: "This over-the-door hanger is sturdy enough to hold larger towels and fits securely on the door top. For the price, this was a good find and a nice visual addition to the bathroom." —AnonymousPrice: $11.99+ (available in two finishes)
A set of three flameless flickering candles for giving your living room an impressively cozy vibe minus the fear of catching your fave curtains or blanket on fire. The ambiance on point without the actual flame is a win-win, plus these are reusable, so no replacing them every few weeks!
Promising review: "I am very pleased with these. They look nice and the flicker effect is very realistic of wick candles. The remote is a plus as well, as you can control them from across the room." —QuartLowPrice: $16.99+ (originally $34.99+; available in three colors)
An insulated, weatherproof strip kit to reinforce your doors and windows because the best defense is a good offense for keeping the weather out and the carefully curated temperature vibes in. Whether you want it to be warm and snuggly or cool and crisp, you don't want to pay to heat the whole outside world, too.
Promising review: "Who knew something was out there that could help block cold air from coming in? I didn't but took my chance on Duck Brand weatherstrip and it did!! I had such a small gap and it worked so well." —TammyPrice: $5.24 for a two-pack
A Zevo flying insect trap if you're tired of hearing "ew, bugs" from your offspring. I've had one of these in my kitchen for years because — as you can see — fruit flies are the bane of my existence. It isn't gross at all to change out the sticky pad, and the little buggers are drawn in by the light rather than me having to worry about spraying pesticide in the same place where I make my food.
Promising review: "This is brilliant! I have a fruit fly infestation that I've been battling for a month and NOTHING seemed able to kill them. I tried everything: apple cider vinegar, fly traps, etc. Only the Zevo fly spray seemed to kill them on contact, so I took a chance on the fly traps. Best move I've made! It caught so many flies after ONE night! Amazing! I look forward to this infestation ending soon!" —mariposa34221Price: $37.47 for a two-pack
A bottle of Dawn Powerwash for anyone who loves the ~idea~ of "just let it soak" but in practice just wants to get those dirty dishes out of their sink ASAP. Just as easy as soaking but twice as fast, I use this all the time and would like to note that it also smells nice (lemon-scented!) which is NOT always the case with high-powered soaps!
Promising review: "Dawn Platinum Powerwash is a total game-changer in the kitchen. I wasn't sure what to expect from spray-on dish soap, but now I can't imagine going back to regular liquid soap. The spray nozzle gives perfect coverage, and it instantly starts cutting through grease and stuck-on food—no soaking required. It's incredibly convenient for quick cleanups and works great on everything from pots and pans to delicate glassware. I love that you just spray, wipe, and rinse. Plus, it smells fresh and clean without being overpowering. A little goes a long way, making the whole dishwashing process faster and easier. This is one of those products that actually lives up to the hype. Highly recommend for anyone who's tired of scrubbing or just wants to save time in the kitchen!" —TedPrice: $4.94
An under-sink water filter to help eliminate icky toxins from the water you and your family drink, use for cooking, brush your teeth with... you get the idea. (Psst: Try this home water quality test kit before and after installation to see the difference!)
Promising review: "Five stars for this product. Easy installation. Water hose fits perfectly and doesn't have those plastic hoses that most filters come with. Also, it is not an expensive filter, but adds protection. I will recommend 100%." —JesusPrice: $52.99
Or a splurge-worthy AquaTrue reverse-osmosis version if you want a little more oomph behind your water-cleaning power. This one uses three different filters to clean the water and add healthy minerals back in and alkalize the water. (But it also makes your life SO EASY when it's time to replace the filters, bless.)
Promising review: "I am so satisfied with the water quality. I have also used the countertop model for a while which is also great." —FarzinPrice: $395
A Cospro 3-in-1 wireless charging stainless-steel grinder set I will PERSONALLY never go without again because it is one less barrier to me *thinking* about cooking and me *actually* cooking. The one-handed grinding is a real game changer because I can season with freshly ground salt and pepper simultaneously and move on to the next step. Plus, it holds a charge FOREVER, so even if you don't want to keep the base plugged in all the time, it's good to go. This gadget is SO sleek, y'all, and it works as good as it looks!
Promising review: "My family love to cook. Salt and pepper are the two basic ingredients that we use in most of our dishes. I have never had such easy time to grind the salt and pepper with one hand. While I am checking on the steak readiness. We love the grinder so much that we will buy another set for my friend, who also love to cook." —MCPrice: $79.95 (originally $99.95)
A bathroom organizer to stash your toilet paper, brush, and any other miscellany you'd rather keep out of sight and mind. Plus, it's designed to be able to turn and face the wall and totally conceal your stuff, so no need to flash your stash of extra shampoo if you don't wanna!

And a Shark steam mop that'll make cooking splatters, water stains, and muddy prints on your floor disappear like magic.✨🪄

A bottle of The Pink Stuff's Miracle multipurpose cleaner because if you're familiar with Pink Stuff's cleaning paste, then you KNOW how great this brand's stuff is at making your house sparkle. (And doin' it fast.)
Promising review: "If I could give this stuff 10 stars, I would. Hands down, the Pink Stuff is the best cleaner ever. I started getting it before it came to the US and was so excited to see Walmart carrying it. I got rid of all my other cleaners except this stuff, and it's awesome. Every last one of these cleaners is great. If you get the brush, they have to go with the cleaner, and you won't ever have to scrub anything again. If you haven't tried it, you don't know what you're missing." —ZuraGailPrice: $4.86

A pack of stainless steel wipes because streaky fridges and handprint-decorated microwaves are not very demure, and this will get you and your cooking space back to being cutesy in no time.

You can run this in the morning while you drink your coffee and catch up to yourself. KEEPS YOUR FLOORS NICE in between serious cleanings!" —NoraHPrice: $101.98 (originally $359.99)
And finally, a luxuriously cozy pillow top memory foam hybrid mattress I am high-key obsessed with because it's *that* comfy. If you're like me and some of the beds in your home are starting to do that thing where they sag in the middle...it *might* be time to consider an upgrade and kiss your falling-into-a-sinkhole-at-midnight problem goodbye.
Wolf Mattress is the fourth oldest mattress maker in the United States and have been manufacturing their mattresses in America since 1873...and it shows!
