Amazon Prime Day is here! There are more deals than you could ever begin to look through on your that's where we come in. A dual-platform KitchenAid scale for 50% off so you can get suuuuuper precise with your ingredients, Great British Bakeoff–style. You can even use both platforms to weigh separate ingredients *at the same time* — how cool is that? Promising review: "I had ordered one of these from a very famous baking company, and it lasted two weeks. UGH! I should have started with this one, as it has been a reliable workhorse for my sourdough journey. The two separate scales have been a game changer. Easy to use, high quality, accurate, and sleek looking in your kitchen" —Nancy BallPrice: $24.99 (originally $49.99; sometimes $37.80 at Amazon) — and shop all the KitchenAid deals here A pack of ceiling fan carbon filters for 30% off (their lowest price in over a year) that grab dust, pollen, smoke, dander, and other allergens as the fan spins. It sticks to the fan blade and is unnoticeable — but you may notice the difference in the air! Promising reviews: "I wasn't sure what to expect when purchasing these, but now they are a staple in every room of our house. Within three days the air smelled more crisp and was easier to breathe in our home. So simple and effective!" —Haylee Marez"We have these on every ceiling fan in our house and have noticed such a difference since installing them! There is less dust on our furniture, and the general air quality in our rooms has improved. There is no longer dust build-up on our fan blades. Super easy to install!" —Hannah McClamPrice: $15.39 for three (originally $21.99) The latest model of Blink outdoor security cameras for 62% off (the cheapest they go for, and the first time they've been this price in 2025) offering 1080p HD day and infrared night footage so you can watch over your property right from your phone. The kit is easy to install (even if you're not tech savvy), you can save and send video, and there's two-way talk so you can scream at the squirrels stealing your bird food. Squirrels need to eat, too, but I get it. These wire-free security cameras come with two-year batteries and a free 30-day Blink trial. The subscription is not necessary, but it offers extra features like video storage and person detection. Promising review: "I've never owned a home camera before so I asked around and did my research…The app alone is AMAZING! The quality of the video is great and you can adjust it how you want as far as motion detection. The night And the fact that I can talk to my dog and hear him if he barks…I would definitely recommend both indoor and outdoor cameras. THEY ARE AMAZING!!!"—Jomyra MalavePrice: $99.99 for a set of three (originally $259.99; available in many sets) — and shop all the Blink deals here A 16-pack of Liquid I.V. hydration multiplier for up to 30% off, which is super handy for a number of reasons but especially when you're out and about in the heat. FYI, depending on your situation, water may be enough to rehydrate you! Read more about electrolyte-enhanced drinks and hydration at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "Got these to help my kids get in some extra water, especially with the hot summers here. They love the taste, and my husband uses them at work for his crew to make sure people stay hydrated." —ZeissPrice: $16.54+ (originally $23.63+; available in multiple flavors) A ridiculously durable, windproof travel umbrella for 50% off with a LIFETIME warranty, making it the true last umbrella you'll ever buy. This uses fiberglass ribs instead of flimsier aluminum, which helps it keep its shape in 70+ MPH winds, and still manages to be super lightweight and compact for travel. Check out a TikTok of the Tumella umbrella in action. Promising review: "Why would anyone want to purchase another umbrella with the warranty this one gives? Not like you will need the warranty with this build quality. Almost every umbrella I have owned has five, maybe six, thin metal rods held together with a tiny pin to form the frame. This thing has reinforced ribs, is as light as you can get, looks great, and all at a low price. Yeah, this is all I need." —E. SmokerPrice: $14.98+ (typically $29.99; available in 25 colors and packs of two) A 3-in-1 apple charging station for 31% off (plus an additional 25% off promo code) that juices up your iPhone, Apple Watch, and AirPods simultaneously without the need for a bunch of cords. Plus, the foldable design makes it travel-friendly, and the anti-slip base ensures your devices stay put. Promising review: "I've been using this wireless charging station for a few weeks now, and I couldn't be happier. It charges my iPhone, AirPods, and Apple Watch all at the same time—no messy cables, no overheating, and no guesswork about placement. Just drop the device on the pad and it starts charging instantly. What really impressed me is how fast and consistent the charging is. My phone goes from 20% to 80% noticeably quicker than with other chargers I've tried, and it never disconnects or stalls. The build quality feels solid, and the design looks great on my nightstand—clean, modern, and minimal." —Akiena KPrice: $13.49+ (originally $25.99; best deal on the black color — hit "redeem" on the 25% off promo code for the full discount) A pack of Crest 3D Whitestrips for 33% off so you can channel Chip Skylark and belt out "My Shiny Teeth And Me" wherever you roam. It comes with 44 strips total, which is enough for 20 regular treatments and two one-hour express treatments. Check out a TikTok of the Crest 3D Whitestrips in action. Promising review: "I haven't used Crest White Strips in over five years. Since then, my teeth have stayed really white, and I frequently get compliments or questions about how I got my teeth so white. I decided to get a box to boost the whiteness of my teeth. Wow, I was shocked at how much these have improved! Before, the strips were really flimsy, hard to remove from the package, and really hard to keep on your teeth — the old ones would slip or bunch up. These are such an improvement! The new strips remove easily from the plastic they are on. The strips are REALLY adhesive! These will not budge! Since I've purchased, I have only used them about four times, and I can already notice a difference. Other people have noticed, too. I think these are well worth the money and work as well as a professional treatment. I have had friends who have done professional treatments and their teeth are not as white as mine. I highly recommend these to anyone who wants a brighter/whiter smile!" —Vanessa5o5Price: $29.99 (originally $44.95)If you're extra worried about sensitivity, Crest makes a sensitive version that's 40% off!

This K-beauty innovation sets makeup, absorbs oil, and blurs and smooths the appearance of skin so your makeup looks flawless all magic wand required. And btw, the packaging is magic, too — there's silicone mesh across the top for easy application without a powdery mess. Check out a TikTok of the Laneige Neo Blurring Powder in action. Promising review: "I loved this setting powder, it blurred my pores and blended my makeup so well that even my husband noticed. Wow! I will be buying more before people find it and sell it all out, hehehe." —Charlotte LaimPrice: $17.50 (originally $25) — and Laneige is offering up to 30% off of their bestsellers, including the lip sleeping mask, bouncy sleeping mask overnight moisturizer, and glowy tinted lip balms. A self-cleaning automatic litter box for 49% off that'll clean up after your kitty so you don't have to (because scooping gets real old, REAL fast). It'll help keep your home smelling fresh *and* keep your cat happy, because (like us humans) they prefer to use a clean "toilet." Reviewers vouch for this as a nice alternative to the much pricier Litter Robot, AND it comes with a lifetime warranty. The best deal is for this bundle with the gray litter box, which comes with a three-pack of litter bags to get you started — nice!Promising review: "I'm absolutely loving this litter box. I've had THE Litter Robot for 4 years and I purchased this item a month ago. This one is so quiet and it takes up about half the space. My cats love it. I love that it's so much easier to remove the bag. Since the entry is so much lower to the ground the cats don't 'grab' when they jump out like with the other box so there's less mess around the opening of the box. Also this has a lifetime warranty and my other box only had a year. I've purchased a new globe for the old box which was almost the cost of the new box. Oh yeah, and the cost is a lot less than the Litter Robot! I've already recommended this item to my other cat parent friends." —Christine $197.58 (originally $389.99; best deal is on the bundle) An award-winning anti-humidity spray for 30% off so you can give humidity a metaphorical middle finger. This spray creates a waterproof coat around your hair that blocks out moisture (which eventually leads to frizziness). As if that wasn't already magical enough, this effect lasts up to 72 hours or through three to four shampoos! Samar: "So here's a secret — even while wearing a hijab, my hair can still get frizzy — thanks Florida humidity 🙄. I just spritz this into my hair before I brave the humidity, and this basically takes care of any potential frizz!"Promising review: "I have thick curly hair that tends to get frizzy. This has replaced all of the products I was using before: leave-in conditioner, frizz serum, curl cream, shine spray, hair spray, and various curl refreshers I have tried on the day after I wash my hair. I now only use this after washing and towel drying, then just spritz on water the second day after washing. This product makes my hair frizz-free, soft, shiny, and defines my curls!" —Amanda CPrice: $19.60 (originally $28 — the curly hair version is also 30% off) The newest version of the Kindle Paperwhite for 22% off (a new lowest price ever). It has 25% faster page turns (!!), higher contrast ratio, and a glare-free 7-inch display, *plus* all the features of the previous version, like a warm light setting for late-night reading and waterproof rating for worry-free poolside or beach reading. Promising review: "I had a 10-year-old Paperwhite that was doing just fine, but at the urging of my friend, decided it was time for an upgrade. Oh. My. Gosh. First of all, I love the larger screen (not larger by a ton, but it's notable). This device is so responsive and quick! I was able to download most of my books in record time, and the battery life is superb. I also adore the separate warmth and brightness options. I took it with me to Europe and even carted it around Paris for a day since we spent a lot of time on trains. It's not too heavy, nor is it too big to slip into a large crossbody bag, and I was certainly glad to have it on me. As with any device, there is a slight glare when in direct light, but it's not too bad. I honestly love my Kindle, and am so glad I upgraded." —CaitlynPrice: $124.99 (originally $159.99) — and shop all the Kindle deals here A Philips Norelco OneBlade electric trimmer for 30% off (at a new lowest recorded price) that is beloved by tens of thousands of shavers for a reason. It can trim hair to the desired length (there are five length options!), shape edges, and (of course) shave — wet, dry, and with foam — comfortably and without irritating skin. Just rinse clean when done. And psst: Reviewers love it for their bikini line too! Promising reviews: "I've used multiple other electronic shavers, and nothing, I mean nothing compares to this one. This will literally leave you babyfaced, where as some other ones will leave a stubble. Will definitely be using this a whole lot more on the future!" —Nosey Rosey"Best thing since sliced bread! I wish they would have made this 40 years ago! I literally have tried to cut or snag myself with this and still can't. This makes grooming those hard to see/reach areas sooooooo much easier." —James $34.96 (originally $49.99) and shop all the Philips Norelco deals here A Graco Extend2Fit car seat for 35% off — specifically the 2.0 version, which is a new lowest-ever price.

Promising review: "Easy to install, great quality, cute design, my daughter loves it, and it is the perfect size. The latch is great; her other car seat dug into her neck, and this one doesn't at all. It is perfect for safety and comfort. All around super happy over this car seat 💯 recommend for anyone needing a new car seat." —Michael CrossPrice: $149.49 (originally $229.99; sale price only available in the 2.0 versions; available in five colors) — and shop all the Graco deals here Burt's Bees sunburn soother for 30% off you'll want to stock up on if you're a "just in case" kinda human — it's made with aloe and coconut oil to hydrate skin and gently relieve pain from the sun's unforgiving rays within just a few hours. Psst — a lot of reviewers mentioned this also helped prevent peeling and itching!Promising review: "I bought this product to take on our vacation. I am so glad I did. I got burnt on my lower legs and tops of my feet. I thought I had put enough sunscreen on. I didn't. That night, I woke with my legs and feet both burning and itching. The instant I put this on, I had relief. OMG I cannot say enough about this stuff. Buy it. Keep it on hand. Great product. Thank you, Burt's Bees!" —D.S. Price: $7.02 (typically $9.99) A reviewer-beloved 2-in-1 nausea relief inhaler for 25% off designed to work FAST to help reduce spontaneous nausea motion sickness, morning sickness, and general queasiness (having a human body is hard). You can either use it as a scent inhaler or rub it directly on the tip of your nose for relief. Check out a TikTok of the nausea relief inhaler in action. Promising review: "Took this on my first cruise. Anytime that I started to feel woozy I'd reach for it. I'm sure the required act of deep breathing helped a lot - and breathing in the fragrance of the essential oil is very calming and effective. Worked for me! Wonderful!" —Willy&LillyPrice: $9.74 for a pack of two (originally $12.99; also available in a pack of four) A Nespresso Vertuo Plus for 35% off (cheaper than it's been in a full year) so you can enjoy a lovely high-quality coffee beverage (it makes single and double espressos AND 5-, 8-, and 12-ounce coffees) while saving serious moolah. This one's designed to fit small kitchens, too! Trust me, the amount of money you'll save on Dunkin/Starbies alone will make this a worthwhile investment. 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) A box of 12 Gillette razor refills for 25% off because who is actually good at keeping up with exactly when you're supposed to switch those out?! Not I! Promising review: "I used to get these at Costco. Nor more. The cost here is identical, and not all the wasteful packaging. The same comfort and high-quality blades." —Kindle CustomerPrice: $29.99 (originally $39.99) A large Brita water pitcher for 31% off with a 10-cup capacity because it's pretty tough to meet your family's hydration goals with water that just say, at best, funky. Promising review: "I was getting tired of lugging heavy packs of bottled water home, not to mention my growing concern about the plastic waste in the landfills. After a lot of research, I settled on this one and have not been disappointed. I was concerned about the taste as we don't have the best water in my city. However, I have been extremely pleased with the taste and how fast it filters the water. I would recommend this to anyone." —Double R Price: $28.99 (typically $41.98) — and shop more Brita Prime Day deals, including 35% off a three-pack of filter refills (down to $12.29).

Promising review: "Bought this product on sale, and it was worth the investment. It blends better than any other blender that I have had. Its multiple options allow for anything from smoothies to purees. I love that I can make soup with this blender. It has plenty of power and a large enough volume to make plenty for a small household. It is also easy to clean! If it is on sale, and you need a better blender, I definitely recommend it. Otherwise, it is very expensive at full price." —Daniel & AmandaPrice: $379.95 (originally $629.95; typically around $580 from a third-party seller; available in three colors) — and shop all the Vitamix deals here! A compact Levoit air purifier for 22% off (that's the lowest price this goes for!) with a true HEPA filter to trap that pesky dust, pollen, smoke, pet dander, and other particles in the air that are keeping your home from smelling keeping you sneezing.

Now that's smart. Just note that when you get it, you need to take the filter out and unwrap it before using!Promising review: "I waited over a month to write a review — this air purifier is amazing!! It's one of those products that you don't understand how much of a difference it makes until you get one. I have two cats,and my house is all carpet, so the house can smell stagnant sometimes, especially if the AC is off. One of my cats also has asthma, so I got this air purifier mostly for her, but it's made such a HUGE difference in the way my home smells. Since having it, my house has consistently smelled fresh, clean, and odorless. Even after forgetting to clean the litter boxes, my house has not smelled like cat litter since I've had it. It's very easy to set up. I bought a little plant stand to put it on so it wouldn't be on the carpet. It's very quiet, and the app is easy to use. It tells you the life of your filter, which is super helpful, and these filters last for a long time! You can set it up to be on a schedule, so you can set it up once and just forget about it. I recommend this air purifier to everyone. I'm NEVER worried about my house smelling anything but clean now. I would repurchase this a thousand times over." —haileePrice: $69.97 (originally $89.99; deal available for the white model) An Away hardside carry-on suitcase for 25% off — for Black Friday they usually offer 25% off, so this is a great rare deal!

Using it on trip to Ireland and was able (with compression bags) to pack for a 13 day trip. Despite all the weight packed, with the lightweight case I was able to easily get into the overhead bin without assistance. The look is modern and the rollability is like butter. Lots of compartments for stashing bits. Also like the built in security with zipper lock. Great value for the money!" —jmsPrice: $220 (originally $275; five colors on sale) — and shop all the Away deals here A hands-free wearable fan for up to 37% off you can easily clip to your waistband or wear around your neck for some instant, refreshing cooling power on days when the sun is trying to melt you like an ice pop. Promising review: "These were a lifesaver! We used them while at multiple theme parks in the summer, and they have worked wonderfully. The fact that they clip to your waist, hold your shirt down, and blow air up your shirt is a way better way to keep cool than just an external fan. I have bought several of these, and would highly recommend! A couple of these lasted all day, as long as you are not constantly running them full blast." —Greg"I saw this rechargeable fan on TikTok, but found it cheaper on Amazon. It has four different settings. Comfortable to wear. It has decent battery life. Noise level is minimal. Keeps you cool. The clip easily connects to your jeans, shorts, or pants to help you stay cool in the heat. I'm a big guy living in Alabama, so it's been great for me! Good, quality product." —Misty ReynoldsPrice: $18.98+ (typically $29.99; available in five other colors at varying discounts) A 230-piece Craftsman tool set for 50% off if you've decided to become "handy," but frankly don't know how to start. This set has everything you could possibly need to complete that DIY project you have planned for this summer. Your home has never looked better. Promising review: "I love the quality and strength of these tools. It has been a major upgrade from what I had before. I love that it doesn't weigh much; I can throw it on the back of the truck and go. It has slip resistance so it won't slide around, and you can lock the drawers so they won't pop out either. The design stores the three different drive sizes, which is super convenient. It's also modular, so you can add it to your tool case, which is very functional in my case." —David Price: $99 (originally $199.99) The 2nd Gen AirPods Pro for 40% off (that's $100 off, an all-new lowest price ever!) — with active noise cancellation, spatial audio, three silicone tips for customized fit, and over 24 hours of listening time with the included case, the AirPods Pro 2 give you a *ton* of bang for your buck. Promising review: "I held off on buying the AirPods Pro for a while, but now I wish I'd gotten them sooner. The noise cancellation is incredible — it truly blocks out the world when I need to focus or relax. The sound quality is crisp, with just the right amount of bass, and the transparency mode is surprisingly natural when I want to stay aware of my surroundings. They fit comfortably in my ears (even during long walks or workouts), and the customizable ear tips are a huge plus. I love how seamlessly they connect to all my Apple devices — switching between my iPhone, iPad, and MacBook is effortless. The case is compact and charges super fast. Battery life is solid, and I've never had them die on me mid-use. Whether I'm listening to music, taking calls, or watching shows, these AirPods have been flawless. Hands down one of the best tech purchases I've made. If you're on the fence — go for it. You won't regret it!" —Martha NavarroPrice: $149 (originally $249 (and currently $249 at Apple); typically $189.99 at Amazon) — and shop all the Apple deals hereAirPods 4 are also a new lowest price ever — 34% off the model with noise cancellation (down to $119) and 31% off *without* noise cancellation (down to $89).

They flex some GORGEOUS spatial audio, a whopping 50 hours of battery life, and genuine "all day wear" comfort. Reviewers also love how lightweight and wearable these are compared to other brands! Check out a TikTok of the Beats Solo 4 in action. Promising review: 'Impressive sound, stylish and sophisticated headphones. I personally like how it's not complete noise cancellation since I like to be aware of the environment around me. So this headphone is amazing for the right reasons. Quality, style, sound, and safety. Not to mention how sleek it is. Finally, headphones that are not bulky or heavy. I appreciate the smooth texture, feel, and the cushioned headband part. It's also easy to pair with my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. The blue slate color is classy, too! Excellent product!' —DianePrice: $97.95+ (originally $199.99; available in four colors — discount varies per color) A Shark FlexBreeze Pro Mist Fan for 20% off (the first time it's ever been on sale!) — this indoor/outdoor fan is sure to be beloved by folks who are tired of ~sweating it~ during the summer. It has an impressive 70 ft. reach while being ultra quiet. The attached water tank makes this misting fan portable *and* it can even be adjusted to be used as a table fan. Bless that breeze. Promising review: "We love this fan. Not only can you spray water through an attachment that goes to the fan, but you can charge the fan itself, disconnect it from the stand, set it up on a table, and it will run for about four hours with no electricity required. It will also run for about four hours before having to be recharged. You won't regret this purchase." —Nan LindstromPrice: $199.99 (originally $249.99) A collapsible heavy-duty utility cart for 25% off (a bit cheaper than it's ever been before) you can use on all terrains to easily move up to 450 pounds — an absolute game-changer for beach trips, camping trips, big shopping hauls, and moving.

Durable, easily maneuverable. My eight-year-old nephew can pull it with his brothers and beach picnic items inside. I pull it easily full of heavy groceries on grassy, uneven ground. Folds away very easily. Worth every cent." —Anjay EnnisPrice: $104.99 (typically $139.99; available in five colors) A Hatch Restore 3 for $30 off (the first recorded discount!) — a cult-favorite sunrise alarm clock *and* sound machine so you can kiss that shock-you-awake alarm goodbye and wake up to a gradually brightening light and the delightful sound of your choosing. It has a variety of nature and white noise sounds built in too, and you can even customize your own bedtime routine. Promising review: "I love it! I've been contemplating buying a Hatch for a while now but I'm so glad I did. The unwind feature is my favorite because of the sunset light setting and calming sounds (which there a lot to choose from)! I also like how the light gradually brightens 30 minutes before your alarm to slowly wake you up. Set up was very easy! The app is also super simple to use and you can set up different routines! You also have access to different light and audio options for the unwind, sleep, or wake up session. Hatch does offer a paid membership to get access to more audio options but you have plenty to choose with the free version. So far, I'm very happy with my purchase and very much enjoy waking up peacefully compared to my phone alarm!

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) The Apple Watch Series 10 for 30% off (that's $120 off, an all-new lowest price ever) with 30% more screen area and improved battery life *and* a lighter, thinner design than previous models!

The cellular feature gives me true freedom when I'm out running or running errands, and the improved battery life easily gets me through the day. The new health and fitness upgrades are incredibly detailed, and the always-on display is sharp and responsive. It's not just a watch — it's a powerful tool that keeps me connected, active, and on top of everything.

My car's upholstery was so dirty from my dogs and years of NOT getting it deep cleaned. This is a game changer. I should've taken a before and after because it was awesome. Not to mention how satisfying it is seeing the dirty water get sucked back into the tank. Easy to prep. Easy to use. Easy to clean. I definitely recommend. This will be perfect for other things in the house as well because if it can tackle MY car with two big dogs, it's gold." —Taylor $81.99 (typically $123.59; sometimes $105.99) — and shop all the Bissell deals here A sand-removal bag for 25% off that'll be a must-have in your beach bag this summer. Rub it on your body to remove sand with ease! (No, it's not magic. Inside the bags is a powder that, when rubbed on your body, quickly absorbs moisture, making it easier to brush off the sand.) Shakalo is a small business based in San review: "We recently moved to a beach area, and we are constantly there. This item has changed our entire lives! It lasts decently long (depending on how much you use it), it smells super good (not at all like baby powder), and it's super effective. It has saved me from vacuuming my car at least 1–2 times a week. I even use it on my dog's paws and bellies to make sure they're taken care of, too. I will definitely be buying the refill and another baggie to have exclusively in the car." —Gabbs UrestiPrice: $18.74 (originally $24.99) The fan-favorite ChomChom pet hair roller for 25% off *plus* an extra 7% off if you love your pets but hate how much they everything. Roll it over your couch, bed, favorite blanket, you name it, and watch it lift the fur away. See, we can own nice things!! Promising review: "Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes, but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-pound tabby and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing — he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care, it's THAT good." —StephaniePrice: $17.18+ (originally $24.99; available in two colors — the white version has the better discount). Make sure to hit REDEEM for the extra discount or use code 7OFFPDCHOM at checkout. A pack of Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamps for 25% off (it's already cheap, but now's a great time to stock up!) so you can polish your toilet without ever having to pick up a dirty toilet brush. The stamp releases the cleaning gel, which foams and cleans your toilet every time you flush. Promising review: "I was sooo skeptical and was confused about how they'd work but the gel solidifies and with every flush, suds wash through with the water and it really makes a fresh difference. Also the scent is light but really nice and fresh! I recommend these 100%! They're super interesting but they do the job." —JanetPrice: $3.49 (regularly $4.67) A luxe cold press juicer for 32% off (the cheapest it goes for) so you can have fruity and/or veggie-packed drinks as you sit back and watch your little one when their soccer game. There's no need to chop and prepare ingredients ahead of time — just wash them, toss 'em in, and watch as even the toughest of fruits are juiced in only a few minutes! This is designed with double-layer filters and a 7-stage spiral auger to help avoid heat generation and oxidation. Promising review: "Game changer! Super quick to use as there's no need to peel or dice everything. Super quick to clean – just a few parts! I juiced a pineapple and three apples in under five minutes. Can't beat that!" —Jordan HillPrice: $129.99 (originally $189.99) Puracy's stain remover for 29% off which is powered by enzymes to completely remove the most annoying stains. (We're talking grass, blood, tomato, oil, sweat, and more!) Just spray on, let sit (overnight for the toughest spots), and wash. I will never (ever ever) buy a different stain remover again! Check out a TikTok of the laundry spray in action. And it's totally biodegradable too. These stain remover is IT. I spilled Thai yellow curry ALL OVER a brand new set of *light blue* Lou & Grey sweats, and this stuff got it out perfectly. I will NEVER not keep this stuff on hand. Just apply, let it sit a while for toucher stains, then simply run as usual in the wash! I just spilled the (fabulous, but VERY staining) NYX lip over my bathmat. Disaster! And this got it ALL OUT, like the spill never happened!Promising review: "This is absolutely the best stain remover I ever used. I had shirts that looked like they had oil stains on them. I tried other stain removers without luck. When I got Puracy I pre treated the stains then put a little more in and washed. The stains were completely gone. I was able to wear the shirts again!!" —Amazon CustomerPrice: $9.99 (typically $13.99; available in different sizes) Some reusable Nippies nipple covers for 25% off to solve any wardrobe dilemmas that can't be solved with any of your current bras — or those times you don't feel like wearing a bra at all but also want a little coverage. And fret not, they won't go sliding off even when you're dancing the night away at that outdoor summer wedding in triple-digit temps. Promising review: "LOVE these covers. They are 100% effective, so much so that I wear them every day. I always wear a bra while out of the house and these are perfect and so comfortable. I don't even know I have them on. They come in a cute little box that you can store in your lingerie drawer. I've bought several pairs and will continue to replace them periodically. Since I'm not using them as pasties to wear in place of a bra they last me a lot longer. I also wash them in lukewarm water with a very mild soap and let them air dry. One pair lasts me 6 months this way. It is well worth the price of $25 to know I never have to worry about my nipples showing. I wish I had these all my life. They are very well made and worth every penny." —Shelley MorrisonPrice: $19.99+ (originally $26.50; available in two styles and four shades at varying or no discounts) A cordless water flosser for 33% off to remove all the flecks of food and grime within your grin without needing to suffer the pain and annoyance of traditional string floss. Promising review: "I never knew I needed a water flosser until I tried this one, and wow — what a difference! It delivers a powerful yet gentle stream of water that thoroughly cleans between my teeth and along the gum line. The effectiveness is undeniable — I can actually feel how much fresher and cleaner my mouth is after each use because my breath has noticeably improved. Beyond just the results, the ease of use has completely transformed my approach to flossing. No more struggling with traditional floss or worrying about missing tricky spots. I still floss, but with the water flosser, it's no longer a chore, it's actually enjoyable and can be done extremely fast." —Vanessa ChangPrice: $19.98 (typically $29.98)

So simple and effective!" —Haylee Marez"We have these on every ceiling fan in our house and have noticed such a difference since installing them!

Super easy to install!" —Hannah McClamPrice: $15.99 for three (originally $19.99) The latest model of Blink outdoor security cameras for 62% off (the cheapest they go for, and the first time they've been this price in 2025) offering 1080p HD day and infrared night footage so you can watch over your property right from your phone. The kit is easy to install (even if you're not tech savvy), you can save and send video, and there's two-way talk so you can scream at the squirrels stealing your bird food. Squirrels need to eat, too, but I get it. These wire-free security cameras come with two-year batteries and a free 30-day Blink trial. The subscription is not necessary, but it offers extra features like video storage and person detection. Promising review: "I've never owned a home camera before so I asked around and did my research…The app alone is AMAZING! The quality of the video is great and you can adjust it how you want as far as motion detection. The night And the fact that I can talk to my dog and hear him if he barks…I would definitely recommend both indoor and outdoor cameras. THEY ARE AMAZING!!!"—Jomyra MalavePrice: $99.99 for a set of three (originally $259.99; available in many sets) — and shop all the Blink deals here A 16-pack of Liquid I.V. hydration multiplier for up to 30% off, which is super handy for a number of reasons but especially when you're out and about in the heat. FYI, depending on your situation, water may be enough to rehydrate you! Read more about electrolyte-enhanced drinks and hydration at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review: "Got these to help my kids get in some extra water, especially with the hot summers here.

It has 25% faster page turns (!!), higher contrast ratio, and a glare-free 7-inch display, *plus* all the features of the previous version, like a warm light setting for late-night reading and waterproof rating for worry-free poolside or beach reading. Promising review: "I had a 10-year-old Paperwhite that was doing just fine, but at the urging of my friend, decided it was time for an upgrade. Oh. My. Gosh. First of all, I love the larger screen (not larger by a ton, but it's notable). This device is so responsive and quick! I was able to download most of my books in record time, and the battery life is superb. I also adore the separate warmth and brightness options. I took it with me to Europe and even carted it around Paris for a day since we spent a lot of time on trains. It's not too heavy, nor is it too big to slip into a large crossbody bag, and I was certainly glad to have it on me. As with any device, there is a slight glare when in direct light, but it's not too bad. I honestly love my Kindle, and am so glad I upgraded." —CaitlynPrice: $124.99 (originally $159.99) — and shop all the Kindle deals here A set of five KitchenAid mixing bowls in the chic shade "pistachio" for 53% off — perfect for whipping up pancake batter, tossing a summer salad together, or even just displaying fruit on the counter. Btw, they have a nonslip bottom so they'll stay in place during even vigorous whisking and stack neatly to save space. Promising review: "I love these bowls. They stack nicely to save space, are durable, and have a slip-resistant bottom. I also love that there are so many sizes. I had acquired one of these bowls many years ago. I believe someone had left it at my house from a party. I loved that bowl and used it all the time. After 10 years of use, it was time to say goodbye. I decided to get this set so that I had all the sizes I needed. I know that these will last me another 10 plus years." —CandicePrice: $27 (originally $57.99; also available in aqua blue; measuring cups/spoons and other bundles also available in the same listing) — and shop all the KitchenAid deals here An award-winning anti-humidity spray for 30% off so you can give humidity a metaphorical middle finger. This spray creates a waterproof coat around your hair that blocks out moisture (which eventually leads to frizziness). As if that wasn't already magical enough, this effect lasts up to 72 hours or through three to four shampoos! BuzzFeed Shopping writer Samar Hadri says, "So here's a secret — even while wearing a hijab, my hair can still get frizzy — thanks Florida humidity 🙄. I just spritz this into my hair before I brave the humidity, and this basically takes care of any potential frizz!"Promising review: "I have thick curly hair that tends to get frizzy. This has replaced all of the products I was using before: leave-in conditioner, frizz serum, curl cream, shine spray, hair spray, and various curl refreshers I have tried on the day after I wash my hair. I now only use this after washing and towel drying, then just spritz on water the second day after washing. This product makes my hair frizz-free, soft, shiny, and defines my curls!" —Amanda CPrice: $19.60 (originally $28 — the curly hair version is also 30% off) A Graco Extend2Fit car seat for 35% off — specifically the 2.0 version, which is a new lowest-ever price. It converts from a rear-facing seat to a forward-facing seat (and a highback booster seat!) and has up to 5" of additional rear-facing legroom to keep your tot safe and comfy in the car for years. Promising review: "Easy to install, great quality, cute design, my daughter loves it, and it is the perfect size. The latch is great; her other car seat dug into her neck, and this one doesn't at all. It is perfect for safety and comfort. All around super happy over this car seat 💯 recommend for anyone needing a new car seat." —Michael CrossPrice: $149.49 (originally $229.99; sale price only available in the 2.0 versions; available in seven colors) — and shop all the Graco deals here A reviewer-beloved 2-in-1 nausea relief inhaler for 25% off designed to work FAST on spontaneous nausea, motion sickness, morning sickness, and general queasiness (having a human body is hard). You can either use it as a scent inhaler or rub it directly on the tip of your nose for relief. Check out a TikTok of the nausea relief inhaler in action. Promising review: "Took this on my first cruise. Anytime that I started to feel woozy I'd reach for it. I'm sure the required act of deep breathing helped a lot - and breathing in the fragrance of the essential oil is very calming and effective. Worked for me! Wonderful!" —Willy&LillyPrice: $9.74 for a pack of two (typically $12.99; also available in a pack of four) A Nespresso Vertuo Plus for 35% off (cheaper than it's been in a full year) so you can enjoy a lovely high-quality coffee beverage (it makes single and double espressos AND 5-, 8-, and 12-ounce coffees) while saving serious moolah. This one's designed to fit small kitchens, too! Trust me, the amount of money you'll save on Dunkin/Starbies alone will make this a worthwhile investment. 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) A box of 12 Gillette razor refills for 25% off because who is actually good at keeping up with exactly when you're supposed to switch those out?! Not I! Promising review: "I used to get these at Costco. Nor more. The cost here is identical, and not all the wasteful packaging. The same comfort and high-quality blades." —Kindle CustomerPrice: $29.99 (originally $39.99) A large Brita water pitcher for 31% off with a 10-cup capacity because it's pretty tough to meet your family's hydration goals with water that just say, at best, funky. Promising review: "I was getting tired of lugging heavy packs of bottled water home, not to mention my growing concern about the plastic waste in the landfills. After a lot of research, I settled on this one and have not been disappointed. I was concerned about the taste as we don't have the best water in my city. However, I have been extremely pleased with the taste and how fast it filters the water. I would recommend this to anyone." —Double R Price: $28.99 (typically $41.98) A Vitamix Propel 750 blender for 40% off (a new lowest-ever price!) with all the reviewer-beloved Vitamix features (quality build, super-fast and thorough blending, easy cleanup) with *five* preset options — smoothie, hot soup, frozen dessert, dips and spreads, and self-cleaning — to make whipping up meals and treats even easier. Promising review: "Bought this product on sale, and it was worth the investment. It blends better than any other blender that I have had. Its multiple options allow for anything from smoothies to purees. I love that I can make soup with this blender. It has plenty of power and a large enough volume to make plenty for a small household. It is also easy to clean! If it is on sale, and you need a better blender, I definitely recommend it. Otherwise, it is very expensive at full price." —Daniel & AmandaPrice: $379.95 (originally $629.95; typically $577.77 from a third-party seller; available in four colors) — and shop all the Vitamix deals here! A ridiculously durable, windproof travel umbrella for 50% off with a LIFETIME warranty, making it the true last umbrella you'll ever buy. This uses fiberglass ribs instead of flimsier aluminum, which helps it keep its shape in 70+ MPH winds, and still manages to be super lightweight and compact for travel. Check out a TikTok of the Tumella umbrella in action. Promising review: "Why would anyone want to purchase another umbrella with the warranty this one gives? Not like you will need the warranty with this build quality. Almost every umbrella I have owned has five, maybe six, thin metal rods held together with a tiny pin to form the frame. This thing has reinforced ribs, is as light as you can get, looks great, and all at a low price. Yeah, this is all I need." —E. SmokerPrice: $14.98+ (typically $29.99; available in 25 colors and packs of two) A set of 22 Rubbermaid Brilliance containers for 35% off (they've only been this cheap one other time in the past year) made of BPA-free Tritan plastic that's designed to *stay* crystal clear and not absorb any odors. They are truly leak-proof (perfect for meal prep or lunches!) and have built-in venting lids for easy reheating. 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) A compact Levoit air purifier for 22% off (that's the lowest price this goes for!) with a true HEPA filter to trap that pesky dust, pollen, smoke, pet dander, and other particles in the air that are keeping your home from smelling keeping you sneezing. Plus this has smart features, like the ability to control it from your phone *and* the ability to set a schedule, so it'll automatically set itself to "sleep mode" with "no nightlight" at 10 pm every night. Now that's smart. Just note that when you get it, you need to take the filter out and unwrap it before using!Promising review: "I waited over a month to write a review — this air purifier is amazing!! It's one of those products that you don't understand how much of a difference it makes until you get one. I have two cats,and my house is all carpet, so the house can smell stagnant sometimes, especially if the AC is off. One of my cats also has asthma, so I got this air purifier mostly for her, but it's made such a HUGE difference in the way my home smells. Since having it, my house has consistently smelled fresh, clean, and odorless. Even after forgetting to clean the litter boxes, my house has not smelled like cat litter since I've had it. It's very easy to set up. I bought a little plant stand to put it on so it wouldn't be on the carpet. It's very quiet, and the app is easy to use. It tells you the life of your filter, which is super helpful, and these filters last for a long time! You can set it up to be on a schedule, so you can set it up once and just forget about it. I recommend this air purifier to everyone. I'm NEVER worried about my house smelling anything but clean now. I would repurchase this a thousand times over." —haileePrice: $69.97 (originally $89.99; deal available for the white model) An Away Carry-On in the bigger size for 20% off, with all the features people love in Away suitcases: a durable yet lightweight shell, 360-degree wheels for a smooth roll, a built-in lock, included laundry bag, and more. It's a smidge larger than their famous Carry-On (15% larger, in fact), so you can fit everything you need for your trip *and* still place your suitcase in the overhead bin. Promising review: "This has been my go-to bag for traveling. I've been managing to travel with clothes for up to 7 days + my suit without worrying about space or my clothes being crammed and wrinkled. No need to be checked as it fits the requirements for most US airlines. It is incredibly light, the locks work perfectly, and the wheels are incredibly smooth. I just wish they had the kids' colors for adults!" —Tiago Corrêa de Oliveira FreitasPrice: $236+ (originally $295; available in eight colors — and shop the rest of Away's sale) A hands-free wearable fan for 33% off you can easily clip to your waistband or wear around your neck for some instant, refreshing cooling power on days when the sun is trying to melt you like an ice pop. Promising review: "These were a lifesaver! We used them while at multiple theme parks in the summer, and they have worked wonderfully. The fact that they clip to your waist, hold your shirt down, and blow air up your shirt is a way better way to keep cool than just an external fan. I have bought several of these, and would highly recommend! A couple of these lasted all day, as long as you are not constantly running them full blast." —Greg"I saw this rechargeable fan on TikTok, but found it cheaper on Amazon. It has four different settings. Comfortable to wear. It has decent battery life. Noise level is minimal. Keeps you cool. The clip easily connects to your jeans, shorts, or pants to help you stay cool in the heat. I'm a big guy living in Alabama, so it's been great for me! Good, quality product." —Misty ReynoldsPrice: $19.98 (typically $29.99) The 2nd Gen AirPods Pro for 40% off (that's $100 off, an all-new lowest price ever!) — with active noise cancellation, spatial audio, three silicone tips for customized fit, and over 24 hours of listening time with the included case, the AirPods Pro 2 give you a *ton* of bang for your buck. Promising review: "I bought these going into it like 'I'm going to hate them.' But these have surpassed every expectation I had. Let me tell you, these sound so crystal clear when listening to music, social media, and on calls. The quality alone is so nice! These things aren't even that tight in my ears, but it's like you put noise cancellation on and it shuts off the outside world. I have this as a mechanic, and it's just white noise everywhere with these in — it's so comfortable walking around the shop having like earplugs in essentially. Also, the battery life is great. I charged it fully when I got them and it's lasted me like a week on the case? I have my headphones in for around 6 hours at work listening to social media. I probably take them out to charge them while walking around the shop or going on break, and I've never seen the buds really go below 80% after hours of listening, tbh, which is kinda wild. For the price, it's worth every dollar and more. And to connect to your phone, it's as easy as just opening the case and done." —Ethan ScottPrice: $149 (originally $249 (and currently $249 at Apple); typically $189.99 at Amazon) — and shop all the Apple deals hereAirPods 4 are also a new lowest price ever — 34% off the model with noise cancellation (down to $119) and 31% off *without* noise cancellation (down to $89). The AirPods Max are also 22% off — they're down to $429 (originally $549). And the Beats Solo 4 headphones for up to 51% off, which is the LOWEST price these go for. They flex some GORGEOUS spatial audio, a whopping 50 hours of battery life, and genuine "all day wear" comfort. Reviewers also love how lightweight and wearable these are compared to other brands! Check out a TikTok of the Beats Solo 4 in action. Promising review: 'Impressive sound, stylish and sophisticated headphones. I personally like how it's not complete noise cancellation since I like to be aware of the environment around me. So this headphone is amazing for the right reasons. Quality, style, sound, and safety. Not to mention how sleek it is. Finally, headphones that are not bulky or heavy. I appreciate the smooth texture, feel, and the cushioned headband part. It's also easy to pair with my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra. The blue slate color is classy, too! Excellent product!' —DianePrice: $97.99+ (originally $199.99; available in four colors — discount varies per color) A Casper Original Hybrid Mattress for up to 43% off that won't creak or send you rolling directly into the middle like a deflating air mattress. One BuzzFeed editor says, "I've been sleeping on a Queen-size Casper Hybrid mattress for a two years now and WOW did I not know what I was missing!!! I previously opted for cheaper bed-in-a-box options that were fine, but just didn't even compare to Casper. I am a stomach sleeper and I prefer my bed to be super squishy but I also know that's terrible for my spine. The Casper Hybrid has a combination of springs and foam (with three ergonomic zones that alleviate spinal pressure) so it's extremely comfortable *and* supportive. I also love the extra edge support because my cats are bed hogs and I often end up pushed to the side so at least I'm not rolling off!"Price: $682+ (typically $1,095+ (and currently $1,095+ at Casper); available in sizes twin XL–California king) A Shark FlexBreeze Pro Mist Fan for 20% off (the first time it's ever been on sale!) — this indoor/outdoor fan is sure to be beloved by folks who are tired of ~sweating it~ during the summer. It has an impressive 70 ft. reach while being ultra quiet. The attached water tank makes this misting fan portable *and* it can even be adjusted to be used as a table fan. Bless that breeze. Promising review: "We love this fan. Not only can you spray water through an attachment that goes to the fan, but you can charge the fan itself, disconnect it from the stand, set it up on a table, and it will run for about four hours with no electricity required. It will also run for about four hours before having to be recharged. You won't regret this purchase." —Nan LindstromPrice: $199.99 (originally $249.99) A pack of Crest 3D Whitestrips for 33% off so you can channel Chip Skylark and belt out "My Shiny Teeth And Me" wherever you roam. It comes with 44 strips total, which is enough for 20 regular treatments and two one-hour express treatments. Check out a TikTok of the Crest 3D Whitestrips in action. Promising review: "I haven't used Crest White Strips in over five years. Since then, my teeth have stayed really white, and I frequently get compliments or questions about how I got my teeth so white. I decided to get a box to boost the whiteness of my teeth. Wow, I was shocked at how much these have improved! Before, the strips were really flimsy, hard to remove from the package, and really hard to keep on your teeth — the old ones would slip or bunch up. These are such an improvement! The new strips remove easily from the plastic they are on. The strips are REALLY adhesive! These will not budge! Since I've purchased, I have only used them about four times, and I can already notice a difference. Other people have noticed, too. I think these are well worth the money and work as well as a professional treatment. I have had friends who have done professional treatments and their teeth are not as white as mine. I highly recommend these to anyone who wants a brighter/whiter smile!" —Vanessa5o5Price: $29.99 (originally $44.95) A 6-in-1 Our Place Cast Iron Perfect Pot for 23% off — its lowest price ever! This multifunctional beauty makes cooking soups, stews, chicken roasts, homemade bread, and more an absolute breeze *and* joy to cook. It features a self-basting lid, a toxin-free rust-resistant build, and is oven-safe up to 500 degrees. The pot also includes silicone Hot Grips and a Beechwood 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) A Kitsch heatless curling rod headband for up to 30% off that can be worn overnight for the perfect barrel-curl look. It even comes with scrunchies to keep the ends of your hair in place. Try dampening your hair with a spray bottle and add some mousse before you wrap your hair around the rod!Promising review: "I was on the fence about purchasing the kitsch. I am very pleased! I wrapped my hair at around 10 pm and unwrapped it at around 8 AM. My curls were so bouncy! I definitely had to wait for them to loosen up which is no big deal because they lasted all day :) it helps to add some product to your hair prior to wrapping it. I added a very small amount of hair paste to my hair and then wrapped. No heat needed! I HIGHLY recommend this product!" —KarismaPrice: $11.19+ (originally $15.98+; available in 12 styles) An electric, adjustable standing desk for up to 41% off so you can stretch your legs and take standing breaks throughout the day, without missing a beat in your emails or meetings. This allows you to simply raise or lower your computer to eye level with the press of a button. I personally own and use one of FlexiSpot's standing desks every day and love it!Promising review: "This desk is wonderful! I got it to switch from a stationary to a sit/stand desk. I liked that the desktop was one solid piece (vs some that are 2 pieces), and I liked the combination of desktop and desk leg colors. My dad and I worked to put this together, and it took us about an hour. All the of the screws and things needed came in nicely labeled bags and it was really easy to figure out what we needed to use. You do need to supply your own screwdriver or drill. Once put together, it was easy to set the default heights for sitting and standing. The desk is actually pretty quiet when it moves! It is not super fast to raise/lower, but it moves along at a nice pace, and everything feels sturdy when it's moving. I have been using this for about a week now and I love it!" —Amazon CustomerPrice: $99.99+ (originally $169.99+; available in five sizes) And check out the rest of FlexiSpot's Prime Day deals! A super-soft Makeup Eraser for up to 30% off so you can easily wipe away your makeup with only water and a little scrub. Just when you thought you needed the most expensive makeup remover, you found this miracle-working towel. It's got two sides — one that can wipe off all your makeup with water and a light scrubbing, and another that exfoliates your skin. Plus, all you have to do when you're done using it is wet it and hang it up to dry! No more wasting money on icky washcloths that hurt your skin!!! I can hear your pores singing from review: "I bought this as a gift for a friend after another friend gave me one a couple of years ago. I have used mine every night for several years, and it's still amazing. I just use one area each night to take off my eye makeup and then use the reverse side to wipe off my face before applying lotion for the evening. I love that I'm not using chemicals on my face, and it's super environmentally friendly because I just wash it weekly with my towels, and it's like new again. Everyone should have one of these. Now, I give them as gifts." —katieheffPrice: $14 (originally $20, available in 15 colors) A sand-removal bag for 25% off that'll be a must-have in your beach bag this summer. Rub it on your body to remove sand with ease! (No, it's not magic. Inside the bags is a powder that, when rubbed on your body, quickly absorbs moisture, making it easier to brush off the sand.) Shakalo is a small business based in San review: "We recently moved to a beach area, and we are constantly there. This item has changed our entire lives! It lasts decently long (depending on how much you use it), it smells super good (not at all like baby powder), and it's super effective. It has saved me from vacuuming my car at least 1–2 times a week. I even use it on my dog's paws and bellies to make sure they're taken care of, too. I will definitely be buying the refill and another baggie to have exclusively in the car." —Gabbs UrestiPrice: $18.74 (originally $24.99) The fan-favorite ChomChom pet hair roller for 25% off if you love your pets but hate how much they everything. Roll it over your couch, bed, favorite blanket, you name it, and watch it lift the fur away. See, we can own nice things!! Promising review: "Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes, but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-pound tabby and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing — he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care, it's THAT good." —StephaniePrice: $18.74 (originally $24.99) A TikTok-famous Bissell Little Green upholstery cleaner for 34% off capable of sucking up messes of any caliber. Be warned, though: Reviewers say once you start, you won't stop. Each cleaner comes with a trial size of Bissell's Spot & Stain review: "I have four expensive fabric-covered chairs in my kitchen dining area that were long overdue to be cleaned. I researched all the available portable cleaning machines, and this one seemed to have the best ratings. I was amazed at the results when I used it on the chairs. Years of ground-in dirt and grime came out easily, and when I looked at the solution that was vacuumed out it was the color of dark chocolate. I did a second cleaning and then used a spray bottle to apply clean water to rinse. Honestly, the chairs looked so good, and even my son was so impressed that he bought one. I highly recommend it, and I rate it five stars plus!" —Kathleen PetroPrice: $81.99 (originally $123.59; if you see a "regular price" of $105.99, it's from a third-party seller, not direct from Bissell/Amazon) A pack of Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamps for 25% off (it's already cheap, but now's a great time to stock up!) so you can polish your toilet without ever having to pick up a dirty toilet brush. The stamp releases the cleaning gel, which foams and cleans your toilet every time you flush. Promising review: "I was sooo skeptical and was confused about how they'd work but the gel solidifies and with every flush, suds wash through with the water and it really makes a fresh difference. Also the scent is light but really nice and fresh! I recommend these 100%! They're super interesting but they do the job." —JanetPrice: $3.49 (regularly $4.67) An automatic food dispenser for 33% off so you no longer have to worry if you've fed your fur baby or not. It holds up to 50 portions and can release food up to six times a day! Promising review: "The mechanism is so quiet, it makes no more sound than I did when I would feed her manually. Add that to the programmable portion sizes and meal schedule, and this actually solves *two* of my problems: my cat's desire to have breakfast at 5 AM and her tendency to eat too much and then throw up. I can set this to give her a half-portion at 5 and then follow it up a few hours later with a second half-portion to get her through to dinner. All the wins!" —Chris GalbreathPrice: $46.93+ (typically $69.98; available in two colors and a model with a camera)

Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. And that's on them simply being the best of the best. ✨ 1. A spinning water bottle organizer because your extensive collection of jumbo water bottles takes up an entire shelf in your kitchen cabinet. This lazy Susan-style water bottle holder can accommodate up to six 40-oz. Stanleys, Starbucks tumblers, and more. Promising review: "I have three daughters, which means I have a ton of Stanley cups. They do not fit in my cupboard, so we bought this to see if it would help. It is quite big on the counter, but we put it in the corner, and that seems to fit. Does hold the cups perfectly, and has helped clean out my cupboard a little bit." — Mara Mobley Get it from Amazon for $21.24+ (available in six colors). 2. A ceiling fan carbon filter for grabbing dust, pollen, smoke, dander, and other allergens as the fan spins. It sticks to the fan blade and is unnoticeable — but you may notice the difference in the air! Promising review: "I wasn't sure what to expect when purchasing these, but now they are a staple in every room of our house. Within three days, the air smelled more crisp and was easier to breathe in our home. So simple and effective!" — Haylee Marez Get a three-pack from Amazon for $21.99. 3. A Windex outdoor glass cleaner if you're tired of sighing in disappointment when you look at your dirty windows, but ain't no way, ain't no how you're getting on a ladder to clean those floor-to-ceiling windows. Just attach the bottle of Windex to your hose, spray the solution, and you're done! Promising review: "The windows are noticeably squeaky clean and clear, and no scrubbing is required after only needing about 20 minutes to dry on a sunny day. I also used this to clean two outdoor glass dining tables, which are now ready for lunches and early dinners outside in the summer. Great product, definitely recommend and will be buying again!" — Helen Simmons Get a two-pack from Amazon for $25.96. 4. A WD-40 pen (A pen! Genius!) so you can enjoy the squeak-quieting, hinge-lubricating, rust-preventing powers that you know and love from traditional WD-40 but in an easy-to-maneuver, precise pen tip. Promising review: "I love WD-40 products and use them for everything. I spray on shovels to keep dirt or snow from sticking, spray around windows and thresholds to deter bugs, clean Sharpies off wood and walls, and, of course, stop squeaky doors. These small, direct-point application pens are great. Keep one in the glove box, my kitchen 'junk' drawer, and the house toolbox." — BBP623 Get a three-pack from Amazon for $14.99. 5. A pack of towel clips that'll prevent kids and pets from pulling down the towel. Or, maybe you have neither of those things, yet your hand and kitchen towels always end up on the ground. Amazon Promising review: "This clip is amazing. No more towels falling on the floor. It was becoming a routine thing since my cat thinks it's fun to pull the kitchen towels off the oven. Not now, bad kitty! Great I had bought one sooner!" — Joanna Get a three-pack from Amazon for $12.99. 6. A Pikk-it tool to remove tangled hair that's lodged in your vacuum head and totally messing with your vac's absorption powers. (And ofc your fingers can't reach the hair!) You can also use it to detangle hair from the bristles of your hairbrush. Amazon, Promising review: "Between me (medium long hair) and my overly fluffy cat, a lot of hair and fluff was continually getting caught up on the roller brush of my vacuum. I dreaded vacuuming because it took so long to pull and snip the hairs wrapped up on the roller brush out with scissors. Not anymore! This silly, little, inexpensive thing works great! Super quick to remove all the hair/fur — in virtually a minute, then back to vacuuming with my lovely Miele vacuum." — MKS Get it from Amazon for $8.99. 7. A doorbell cover because a delivery person always seems to drop by the minute your little one has gone down for a nap. Or maybe your dog goes absolutely bonkers when the doorbell it's always a random solicitor selling something you don't want. This works on any type of video or standard doorbell. Stickers are included. Promising review: "Caring for my mom, who has Parkinson's and dementia, I've had to deal with startling sounds like the doorbell, which can be really distressing for her. This has been a game-changer. This sign is easy to install with no tools needed and fits perfectly on our doorbell." — Donna Get it from Amazon for $19.99. 8. A screen-cleaning brush for anyone who struggles to see out of their windows because of grime-covered mesh screens. Is that a twig or a crack in the glass? Maybe there's a dead bug clinging to the outside of the screen, and he's been there for so long that you've named him. (Everyone, say hello to Carl!) Promising review: "Our screens are on a second-floor balcony. There really isn't any good way to clean the outside of the screens. Luckily, the fibers on this screen cleaner are small enough that they seem to fit through the screen and clean both sides. I'm sure it doesn't clean the outside as well as it does the inside, but any help is always appreciated. I was actually shocked at how much dirt came off the screens with this very simple tool. I used it wet with a small amount of dish soap, and it worked really well. I also appreciated that after I was finished, I was just easily able to rinse and dry the screen cleaner for future use. A simple tool at an excellent price." — BonjourBeautyByAmy Get it from Amazon for $20.99. 9. A tissue dispenser if you want to permanently cross tissues off your grocery list. This caddy is designed to house and dispense toilet paper — Yep! TP! — which is cheaper than tissues, doesn't come in wasteful individual boxes, and works just as well to catch your snot. Promising review: "Best practical, money-saving, perfectly designed invention I've found in a long time. I like to use toilet paper instead of tissue paper because it saves money and because it saves me from having tissue paper as yet another item to keep track of on my shopping list. You can buy pretty tissue boxes and put the TP roll inside, but it doesn't hold the TP very well at the top, and it looks bad. However, this product holds the TP perfectly, dispenses it smoothly, and hides the ugly TP roll. So I can keep it out on my counter in the kitchen, and the dispenser looks great. It's easy to refill. There is no other product like this, believe me, I've looked! I'm so impressed!" — bk722 Get it from Amazon for $24.95 (available in two patterns). 10. A space-saving ceramic folding griddle so incredibly well designed that you'll swear some magical wizard made it. There's a built-in drip tray for grease and two temperature zones, meaning you can cook at different temperatures! Eggs on one side, bacon on the other. Meat on one side, veggies on the other. You get the idea! Promising review:"I love how spacious yet compact this griddle is. It's big enough to cook for the family but folds up neatly for easy storage. The non-stick surface works perfectly — nothing sticks, and cleanup is super quick. The dual temperature controls are a nice bonus, letting you cook different foods at once. It's a simple, reliable tool that makes cooking so much easier!" — SAMAS Get it from Amazon for $59.99 (available in four colors). 11. A pack of solar-powered waterproof deck lights that'll illuminate all the dark areas outside your home. Attach them to deck railings, on the side of your stairs, to your fence, and wherever else it's a little spooky at night. Promising review:"These lights were easy to install and look great on our deck. We just had a pool built and needed some light on the steps of the deck so we could see walking up the steps at night. They're beautiful without too much light." — BJ Get 16 from Amazon for $29.99 (available in white or multicolored versions). 12. An inflatable pool with a built-in bench to make your sunny dreams of relaxing in a pool with a glass of sweet tea a reality — even if you have a small backyard. Promising review: "Good size. I'm 5'4, and I bought it for my 3-year-old and 2-year-old for the spring and summer. I didn't need anything huge; I have a nice-sized deck, and we spend a lot of time on the deck, so I wanted something big enough for them to have some wiggle room to keep cool but not too big so it wouldn't take up too much room. I also purchased an outdoor grass rug to put it on to protect the bottom of it and keep it from getting splinters (just a suggestion if you plan on using it on the deck). It has a drain plug, so cleaning and getting fresh water is not hard at all." — Majestic 0220 Get it from Amazon for $59.99. 13. A standing weeder because having to kneel for hours plucking weeds? My back hurts just thinking about it! Thankfully, this tool has three steel claws that grip weeds and roots so you can pull them out while standing. Your backyard has never looked better! Grampa's Gardenware Co. is an Oregon-based, family-owned small business. Made with a bamboo handle and powder-coated steel, it uses a simple lever system to make weeding easy. Promising review:"Oh my god, I friggin' love this tool. I bought this on a whim, given that we bought our first house and know nothing about caring for a yard. Boy, has it come in handy. Our new house had a ton of weeds in the front yard, and this tool helped me get most of them out in no time. In fact, the process of yanking out the weeds was strangely satisfying! I don't think anyone can say that weeding is fun, but this tool made it as close to fun as you can get, especially when you see a long root along with the weed you pulled." — JG Get it from Amazon for $32.99. 14. A crack weeder tool so your knuckles aren't scratched and bloodied after a session of sidewalk weed pulling. This stainless steel tool is designed to get into tight sidewalk cracks and remove stubborn thistles, weeds, and moss with ease. Promising review: "This tool helps being able to get the weeds out of cracks in cement super fast and makes them look nice. You do still have to get close to the ground, and it is not that long, but the handle is very nice and no blisters from it." — Staci Fillingham Get it from Amazon for $12.99 (available in two sizes). 15. An all-in-one pan from our Goodful collection if you've got one crappy pan to your name, and it's still coated with the remnants of this morning's fried egg. Upgrade your collection with a workhorse pan that can steam, saute, pan fry, deep fry, stew, poach, and so much more! And when it's time for cleanup, the mess will just slide right off. (Or just toss it in the dishwasher!) It comes with a beechwood turner. Promising review: "My husband used this pan for the first time a couple of nights ago, and it was perfect! Enough capacity for the cheesy potato soup he was making (we always make enough for leftovers with soups and stews), no issues with sticking at all, got up to temperate, and held it well. It's lightweight, which is wonderful for such a large pan! Well constructed and a good flat surface on top and bottom for easy cooking and perfect heat coverage." — Patricia A Rufus Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in six colors). 16. A wood polish and conditioner so you can revive your embarrassingly worn, dinged, and dented cabinets, bed frame, and armoire as quick as a flash. Plus, this method is a heck of a lot cheaper than actually replacing the wood or furniture piece, and using this polish on a regular basis can actually help keep the wood hydrated so it lasts longer. Promising review: "What is this sorcery?! I've been slowly replacing my hand-me-down furniture with mid-century beauties. The pieces I can afford are in good but not perfect shape. There are scratches, dents, scuffs, etc. This stuff is MAGIC. It doesn't help the physical dents, obviously, but it virtually erases the color defects so your eyes don't even register the damage. I bought this after seeing it in a BuzzFeed article about must-have household care products, and this really is essential. After I used it on my bedroom suite, I tried it on my door frames, and WOW. My house is old, built in the '60s, and the tired, worn-down wood has come back to life! This is a long-term relationship, and I will always have some on hand." — Lisa McCool Get it from Amazon for $9.53. 17. A Thermacell rechargeable mosquito repeller that'll create a 20-foot 'squito-free zone for up to six-and-a-half hours. If you're not looking to be a mozzie meal this summer, you'll wanna have this on hand for any and all outdoor gatherings! The fast-charging deck recharges the device to full in just two hours. It also comes with a 36-hour refill cartridge. Promising review: "Mosquitos are relentless in my neighborhood. Living at the top of a hill with plenty of trees, bushes, and constantly watered plants means these little pests are always lurking. I've tried rosemary and citronella plants, candles, and sprays, but somehow, they still find me. This rechargeable repellent puts up a solid defense, covering 20 feet, which is enough for most of my patio. It does take about 10–15 minutes to kick in, so I make sure to turn it on before heading outside. Once it's up and running, I can actually sit and relax without swatting at the air every few seconds. No DEET, no weird smells, and no batteries to replace. Just a simple way to keep the bites away." — luxylu Get it from Amazon for $34.88. 18. A no-tools-required dual-showerhead to make tandem showers a romantic experience instead of fighting with your partner because someone is roasty toasty under the showerhead, and the other person is shivering in the back of the tub. Parents love this thing for getting kids in and out of the shower without fights over the water. Boona is a small business on a mission to make showers more enjoyable, whether you're showering alone or with a partner. Promising review: "This is a high-quality product that's straightforward to install. The water pressure is incredible! It's like a brand-new shower. You can adjust which showerhead the water comes out of individually or both simultaneously. It's a game changer for our kids, so they don't fight over the water anymore!" — Taylor Get it from Amazon for $249+ (available in three colors and with or without a second showerhead). 19. A Tub Topper because parents everywhere, bathtime is about to change forever. It attaches with suction cups to the lip of the tub and acts as a splash guard, toy tray, and a fun zone thanks to the flat surface, which allows for play. Amazon Promising review: "Like you, when I first came across this, I was hesitant because of the price. It's a bit steep, I thought to myself. But then, after another night of bathtime with two towels on the ground to soak up the water my child had splashed all over, I took the plunge and bought it. And definitely worth it a million times over. My child LOVES the extra space for toys, and I love the water staying in the tub. I definitely and highly suggest buying it. You won't be disappointed! Or your child!!" — Brianna Get it from Amazon for $59.95 (available in four colors). 20. An enamel paint for metal appliances that look well used. Swipe it on scratched or rusted fridges, bathtubs, metal bed frames, and washers/dryers, and you'll swear your appliances look straight from the sales floor. Some reviewers even use it to redo their countertops or sinks, although you might want to use an acrylic sealer afterward if you decide to do that! According to one reviewer, it's fantastic for vintage appliances, too. Promising review:"Oh my goodness! This stuff is amazing! I remodeled my bathroom, and the washer and dryer looked terrible. One coat of this, and they look brand new! I'm going to add another coat today just to make it extra durable." — Linda Forester Get a quart from Amazon for $26.59. 21. Some white caulk tape if the previous caulk job in your bathroom leaves much to be desired, or if you installed a new toilet and now there's a gap between the toilet base and the floor. Use this in the bathroom Promising review: "I recently used this toilet sealing tape to give my bathroom a cleaner, more polished look, and I couldn't be happier with the results! The tape adheres perfectly to the base of the toilet, creating a seamless and professional finish. It's durable, water-resistant, and keeps dirt and moisture from accumulating in hard-to-clean areas. Installation was simple and hassle free, with no mess or fuss. The bright white color complements the flooring beautifully, enhancing the overall aesthetic of my bathroom. This tape is a game changer for anyone looking to add a neat and protective barrier around their toilet. Highly recommended!" — Hayden Scott Get a roll from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in two colors and three lengths). 22. A portable 120-inch movie screen so you can move your family movie night outdoors. It's lightweight yet sturdy, large enough for everyone (and probably the neighbors) to see, and reviewers say setup takes mere minutes. Promising review:"I love the size and the fact that it takes five minutes to set up and five minutes to take down. Very portable and lightweight to carry. Very sturdy. I would highly recommend." — Kathi Get it from Amazon for $94.95 (also available in a smaller 100-inch version). 23. A touch-up paint pen that'll fill in minor chips or paint over stains in tight areas where a larger brush simply wouldn't fit. It's also great for detail work; reviewers rave about it, especially for line and stencil work. Slobproof is a woman-owned small business. Promising review:"Love this — absolutely perfect for touchin' up little spots that need touchin' up. I have several sets filled with different paints, and so far, they've stayed usable without the paint drying out. I rinse the brush really well after each use (latex paints) and recap it. It would be nice if the manufacturer put an area on the pen where you could easily label the paint info, but I use a permanent marker, and it works okay." — Amazon Customer Get a pack of two from Amazon for $16.99. 24. A pack of shelf dividers to organize your clothes into neat and distinct piles. These dividers stabilize soft clothes (and even books and handbags) that tend to fall over into one big pile of mess. Promising review:"These work great! They work so well that I installed them and forgot them. My bureau is pretty deep, and my clothes would all fall on top of each other and become a big mess. Now I'm pretty organized with my T-shirts." — Pathfndr Get it from Amazon for $17.99. 25. A pack of carborundum sponges because these are the heavy hitters you'll want for stains and gunk that no other sponge is strong enough to handle. Promising review: "Nice and thin. You'll find so many more uses for these around the house than just getting stuff off the underside of cookware! I had hard, scaly water deposits on the glass surrounding our powder room faucet (one of those fancy, highfalutin modern-looking things). I've tried everything for four years to get this stuff off. One day I thought, maybe I'll try my sponges. Took it all off super easily!!!! The faucet looks new. My only rec is to spot-test your item first before using it because it will scratch certain surfaces if you scrub too aggressively (for example, it gets the burned-on, weird stuff off of the bottom of my fave Our Place pan, but I rubbed too hard in one spot and it took the color right off lol)." — Hoarder Get a pack of eight from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two sponge thicknesses). 26. A Wet & Forget exterior spray (from the makers of the beloved Wet & Forget shower spray) for a low-effort solution to the algae, moss, mildew, and mold buildup on your stone walkway. Simply spray and walk away! Over time, stains will fade — and they can stay gone for up to a year. Promising review:"Love the fact that you just spray and let it do its thing. No rinse-off or anything. My outdoor rugs were a little drab after the winter, and this brought them back to like. No scrubbing either. Worked well." — Chasing Fireflies Get it from Amazon for $19.84. 27. Some Command cord bundlers if your house is full of gadgets and gizmos aplenty, and their cords are ugly and sprawled over every surface of your home. Tie them up neatly and stick 'em to your devices so you never have to go rooting around for a rubber band. Promising review: "I've only used it on a few appliances, but the one getting the most action would be the one on our coffee maker. It can't be adhered to surfaces that get hot (like a slow cooker), so I was able to find a spot that doesn't when we use it, and it has held up great so far. I've been using it for a few months, and so far, so good. I hate having cords trailing around on the counter, and this helped fix that. Worth the investment." — TravelBuff Get a six-pack from Amazon for $12.26. 28. A magnetic screen door so you can let in the cool breeze (while keeping *out* the buggies) and prevent yourself from having to let your dog out every 10 minutes. Why do dogs stand at the door and bark until you let them out, only to bark at the door asking to come back in 30 seconds later??? Promising review: "We got this screen so our dog can go in and out freely without letting the bugs in. At first he wasn't quite sure about going through it; in fact he scratched at it signaling us to open it for him. But after a few training treats he figured it out. Installation was so easy! The Velcro, fabric, and mesh all seem very good quality. I'm also happy that we can take down the screen in the winter and store away easily, then just reattach it in the spring. Very happy with my purchase!" — Crystal K Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in five sizes). 29. A hanging curved lounge chair that'll keep you shaded and comfy as you chill by the pool. Now's the perfect time (and this is the perfect place) to curl up and crack open that book you said you were going to read. Promising review:"The only problem I have with this chair is that I only have one of them, and the whole family now fights over it! Seriously, it is THAT comfortable and relaxing. Pretty easy to put together. My husband got it all assembled in less than an hour and then proceeded to open up a beer and fall asleep in it next to the pool. HA! I like to take my laptop out with me and work in it as the moveable umbrella shades my screen. Love love LOVE it!!" — Erin S Get it from Amazon for $199.99 (available in 16 colors).

Some bedsheet tags that'll simplify both the bed-making and sheet-storing processes. Instead of wondering if this is the queen or king-size sheets or laying out the flat sheet only to realize it's turned the wrong way, you'll Bed Corner Labels is a woman-owned small business based in Hermosa Beach, California. These labels can be left on sheets while they're in the washer and dryer. They can also be detached and reattached a limited number of times. Promising review: "They're easy to attach to sheets and look better than the safety pin I was using to designate the long side of my king-sized sheets." — ESimms5555 Get four labels from Bed Corner Labels on Etsy for $13.75+ (available in larger sets and nine styles). 3. A ceiling fan carbon filter for grabbing dust, pollen, smoke, dander, and other allergens as the fan spins.

A mold and mildew remover gel because you can set it, forget it, and come back in a few hours to see grout that looks like new. I'm talking basically every speck of black mold is gone! *Cues up "Do You Believe in Magic"* Promising review:"Wow! I would give this 10 stars if I could. We've had issues for a few years with the caulking behind the handle of our kitchen faucet turning black from mildew. We've scrubbed with what seems like a million different products with no luck. We were actually just talking about ripping out the caulking and doing a total replacement. But my husband saw this online the other day and decided to order it. Almost immediately, when he applied it, you could see it was starting to work. We left it on overnight, and the black is COMPLETELY GONE! It's incredible. It's 1,000% worth the (small) investment. Seriously — just buy this. It's amazing!!" — Nicole D. Check out our Skylarlife mold and mildew removal gel review for more deets! Get it from Amazon for $14.99. 5. And a bleach-free, no-scrub weekly shower spray to make soap scum and shower grime buildup vanish without you ever having to wipe. Rinse it clean the next day, and you'll be amazed to see those hard water stains on your shower door are *poof* gone. Amazon Promising review:"We cannot BEGIN to tell you what a lifesaver this is! We have two old fiberglass tubs with vinyl shower enclosures that, no matter what amount of scrubbing we have done with everything from bleach to cleanser to vinegar and baking soda, would NOT come clean. After I took my shower last night, I sprayed down the tub and walls. Within minutes, all the built-up water deposits, dirt, and grime began to melt away in front of my eyes. I left it on overnight, and when I got up this morning, it did not look like the same tub and shower. This product is a godsend, especially for old folks like us who have difficulty getting down on our hands and knees and scrubbing anything. More importantly, it performs as advertised. We plan on using it as part of our weekly cleanup routine. This is truly an overnight sensation!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $20.98 (available in two scents). 6. A pet hair roller if you love your fur babies but hate how much they everything. Roll it over your couch, bed, favorite blanket, you name it, and watch it lift the fur away. See, we can own nice things!! Promising review:"Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes, but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-pound tabby, and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing — he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care, it's THAT good." — DH Check out our ChomChom pet hair remover review for more deets! Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in three colors). 7. A laundry guard so clothes can't fall behind your washing machine/dryer, never to be seen again. This adjustable shelf attaches via magnets to save you from hunting for lost socks or having to move a heavy machine to snag a fallen dress. Amazon Haus Maus is a family-owned small business. Promising review: "Really wish I had thought to design this myself. But here it goes. Love that it's magnetic. This makes it highly durable if and when there are vibrations or an unstable load in either the washer or dryer. This stays put. I haven't had any issues with it not staying and have not lost any items since getting this. A++" — Suzanne McCurdy Get it from Amazon for $32.95. 8. A water dispenser leveler that'll probably elicit a literal "OMG" from you now that you know there is a solution to the annoying problem of it being nearly impossible to fully fill a glass with water from the fridge because of the current angle of the spout. Packard 3D Designs is a Maryland-based small business run by mechanical engineer Austin Packard. Promising reviews: "Game changer for our fridge. We had to adjust our shelves a bit, but it was way worth it to have this thing fit!" — Alex McGee "This has made getting water from my refrigerator much easier for my grandkids and me." — Susan Get it from Packard 3D Designs on Etsy for $25 (available in white or gray). 9. A Windex outdoor glass cleaner for homeowners who are tired of sighing in disappointment when they look at their dirty windows but ain't no way, ain't no how they're getting on a ladder to clean those floor-to-ceiling windows. Just attach the bottle of Windex to a hose, spray the solution, and you're done! Promising review: "The windows are noticeably squeaky clean and clear, and no scrubbing is required after only needing about 20 minutes to dry on a sunny day. I also used this to clean two outdoor glass dining tables, which are now ready for lunches and early dinners outside in the summer. Great product, definitely recommend and will be buying again!" — Helen Simmons Get a two-pack from Amazon for $25.96. 10. A double-layer cat litter-trapping mat because pesky crystals and pebbles are always trying to hitch a ride on your cat's paws after they leave the litter box. Then you can just dump the trapped litter right back into their box! Promising review: " These are the most effective litter mats that I've ever tried. This is the fourth different litter mat that I've tried. Nothing else has been effective with the three litter boxes that are kept on both hardwood and carpet. I got one at first to see if I liked it and then bought two more. The holes are deep enough that they catch everything and all you have to do is open it like an envelope to dump it out. I've had no issues with stuff getting stuck in the holes, either. I do use corncob litter, so I can't say anything as to the effectiveness of it with clay litter." — DisaRae Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors). 11. A pack of double shower hooks to save you time when you wanna toss your dirty shower curtain liner in the washing machine. Now, you don't have to remove the shower curtain, too (and then inevitably hang it up backward). And one certified genius even used the hooks as pant hangers. *mind blown* Promising review:"Wow. Game-changer. I have to change my shower curtain liner a lot because of a humid bathroom (yes, even with a fan on 😬). Though there are greater issues in the world, why wouldn't you want to save yourself some time with these hooks? Not having to take the curtain off each time I change the liner has really been more satisfying than I had anticipated. An added bonus is the rings themselves: The balls that were added hug the shower curtain rod, so they never pop off. Something I never knew I needed either. Love these!" — Jdbouchart Get a 12-pack from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in 12 finishes). 12. An outlet extender if your bed, couch, cabinets, etc., can't lie flat against the wall because a pesky cord is in the way. This adapter has three outlets, so you can push your bed flat against the wall and still plug in the charger. Amazon Promising review: "I have been looking for a solution that would allow for a nightstand and also a dresser to be pushed up against a wall even with things plugged into the outlet behind that furniture. I FOUND IT. This wall outlet extender does exactly what it says it will do. I have a fan, clock radio, and watch charger plugged into it and can still move the nightstand right up against the wall. The light on the dresser no longer forces the dresser to be out a couple of inches; it, too, can be pushed right up against the wall, and the cord is not in danger of getting crushed and becoming a fire hazard. A game changer! I will be ordering a few more." — Lynda L. Get a two-pack from Amazon for $6.88 (available in white and black). 13. A crack weeder tool so your knuckles aren't scratched and bloodied after a session of sidewalk weed pulling. This stainless steel tool is designed to get into tight sidewalk cracks and remove stubborn thistles, weeds, and moss with ease. Promising review: "We purchased this tool to help clean up our brick paver patio. There were many small, pesky weeds coming through even after using some natural and non-natural weed killers and we wanted to get it cleaned up before power washing and re-sanding. This little tool made it so easy to get those weeds out by the roots. We waited until after a big rain here so the soil beneath was loose, then after trying it out to be sure it would pull things out by the roots, we put my son on it! Our patio hasn't looked this good in years. It has been two weeks, and — yes, we re-sanded, too — the little clover and creeping Charlie weeds are nowhere to be found. I plan to use it on the little ones that are near our sidewalk and driveway next." — Mom of Four Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in three styles). 14. A pack of towel clips that'll prevent kids and pets from pulling down the towel. Or, maybe you have neither of those things, yet your hand and kitchen towels always end up on the ground. Amazon Promising review: "This clip is amazing. No more towels falling on the floor. It was becoming a routine thing since my cat thinks it's fun to pull the kitchen towels off the oven. Not now, bad kitty! Great I had bought one sooner!" — Joanna Get a three-pack from Amazon for $12.99. 15. An acrylic organizing case perfect for belts (although you can use it for jewelry, watches, knickknacks, etc.) who are currently seeking a home that's not a drawer (where you lose track of what belts you own because you can't see everything) or slung over the closet rod (where they'll inevitably fall). Promising review: "I like how well they are made and how you can stack them or mount them on a wall. We used ours for belts and ties, and they work great. I own a cleaning business, and a client of mine had them in his closet when we were dusting. I asked him where he got them from and then I purchased them as well. I love them! I will be buying more." — Brenda Lamberti Get it from Amazon for $34.99. 16. A two-tier sliding shelf because there are cabinets in your home that everyone knows to absolutely never open for fear of triggering an avalanche of junk. These durable baskets are up to the task of corralling all the random bits and bobs you own, so every bit of storage space is usable. Promising review: "I saw great reviews on this item, so I took the plunge and ordered two sets of them. They were a little pricey, but I am so happy with the product that I think the price was completely worthwhile! These organizers are much better than other plastic drawers I have used in the past. With the way they are designed, items don't get stuck in the drawers, they are easy to slide, they are spacious, and they have little removable 'sectionals' that you can use to organize the inside of the drawers. All in all, this was a great purchase, and I would make it again in a heartbeat." — Tess De Pretis Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in five colors, with or without dividers, and in multipacks). 17. A space-creating "Sink Topper" to function as both a surface for your beauty products as well as a heat-resistant mat for hot tools *and* a makeup brush cleaning mat (thanks to its textured surface)! Sink Topper is a small business that specializes in household-friendly organizing mats. Promising review:"I was introduced to this item through TikTok, and they aren't joking when they place certain videos on your 'For You page' because they knew that I NEEDED THIS. It is super helpful for small sinks, and I love the material. It doesn't slide around, it's wide enough for all my (at the moment) bathroom needs, and I can easily fold it up and take it anywhere with me." — Allie West Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in seven colors and two sizes). 18. A container of Museum Gel if little hands (or little paws) are constantly knocking your precious valuables from the shelves. Just a little dab of this gel will lock your things in place. But don't worry, reviewers say it's easy to remove! Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok, and I absolutely love it. I use it to keep my drawer organizers from sliding around. This stuff is amazing, and I wish I had known about it forever ago." — Abby Get it from Amazon for $11.46. 19. A pair of hat racks so you can actually see all the hats you own. Promising review: "I purchased these because my husband and I have a lot of ball caps. These worked really well for us. They came with two different installation options: something you could screw into the wall and an adhesive. We went for the adhesive option. We installed two in our closet. Easy to stack hats on top so they are out of the way and organized." — Erin Adkins Get a two-pack from Amazon for $7.99 (available in black and white). 20. A pack of solar-powered waterproof deck lights that'll illuminate all the dark areas outside your home. Attach them to deck railings, on the side of your stairs, to your fence, and wherever else it's a little spooky at night. Promising review:"These lights were easy to install and look great on our deck. We just had a pool built and needed some light on the steps of the deck so we could see walking up the steps at night. They're beautiful without too much light." — BJ Get 16 from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in a warm white or color-changing style). 21. Some no-drill magnetic door stoppers for holding open those annoying doors that just magically close on their own. Amazon, Promising review: "So easy to install! Just stick one side and then the other, and it's done! It's been three weeks, and it is still holding firm. It's a magnet, so gently hold the door until it clicks, and then another gentle push to unlock it. Great for an elderly woman who kept getting caught in the door of her apartment!!!" — Amazon Customer Get a two-pack from Amazon for $11.98 (available in black, silver, and white). 22. A Tub Topper because parents everywhere, bathtime is about to change forever. It attaches with suction cups to the lip of the tub and acts as a splash guard, toy tray, and a fun zone thanks to the flat surface, which allows for play. Amazon Promising review: "Like you, when I first came across this, I was hesitant because of the price. It's a bit steep, I thought to myself. But then, after another night of bathtime with two towels on the ground to soak up the water my child had splashed all over, I took the plunge and bought it. And definitely worth it a million times over. My child LOVES the extra space for toys and I love the water staying in the tub. I definitely and highly suggest buying it. You won't be disappointed! Or your child!!" — Brianna Get it from Amazon for $59.95 (available in four colors). 23. A self-closing, mess-free toothpaste cap to spare you from the gag-inducing situation you're currently in: dried toothpaste crusted all over the tube and the bathroom counter. Parents especially sing its praises, saying it helps prevent waste by dispensing just the right amount of toothpaste, keeping toothbrushing a mess-free affair. Promising review: "I saw these on an Amazon review video on YouTube and figured I'd give them a try because my boyfriend tends to leave the toothpaste bottle a complete mess, and I can't stand it! These things have a great seal and give out a good amount of toothpaste when you squeeze it. It wipes clean very easily. So glad they come with more than one, but not sure what I'll use the other ones on yet." — Kimberly C. Get a set of three from Amazon for $7.94+ (available in three styles). 24. A tube of peel-and-stick contact paper if your kitchen appliances could use a little zhuzhing. With a little patience, you can turn your dated white fridge into a "stainless-steel" beauty. Promising review:"This stainless-steel wrap worked out great! Our fridge now matches the rest of our appliances. I like how it's thicker than normal contact paper. It made it much easier to install." — rach Get a 15.8-inch x 78.8-inch roll from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in three sizes). 25. A pack of duster sponges so spring cleaning is easy peasy lemon squeezy. Simply wet your sponge and wipe away the dust! BuzzFeed editor Maitland Quitmeyer gives them a big thumbs up: "I bought a pack of these recently, and so far, love dusting with them! All the dust sticks right on, so you don't end up breathing in all the dust you just tried removing. It's great for baseboards, too!" Promising review: "I rarely review products, but this little sponge literally changed my life! It picks up EVERYthing in one swipe! Hard water marks on your bathroom mirror, no problem! Hair clippings on your sink and counter, one swipe and they are gone! Dusty blinds? Swoosh, swoosh, swipe! And ala-presto ka-bam, like magic, they are perfect and dust-free! I just need one of these for my floors! I love, love, love how the sponge picks up everything, and with a little running water, all the dust, hair, muck, and guck just rinsed away! This will not disappoint! Thank you!" — DayDreamer Get a two-pack from Amazon for $7.99 (available in six color combinations and in packs of four and eight). 26. A mattress lifter that'll help you elevate your very heavy mattress and allow you to more easily tuck in the sheets. No more straining your back, propping your mattress awkwardly on your knee or shoulder, or calling in backup when it's time to make the bed. Amazon Promising review: "My spouse asked that I look into a product that helps lift a mattress, and she had seen this in an advertisement on the TV. This plastic tool aids in lifting a mattress so that sheets can be changed on the mattress. She told me that this product made it easier to lift the mattress and that her hands no longer ached as much as they did without using the product. She is satisfied with the product, and if she is, then I am also. I would order it again." — Thomas Reed Get it from Amazon for $19.95. 27. A no-drill window shelf for all the sun-loving plants you own, even if you don't *actually* have enough windowsill space for their pots. Bam! Now you do! Design House Boutique / Etsy 28. Luigi's sink and drain plunger, because it's-a-me, a mini tool that will help you live your best plumber life. But seriously, this handy blue guy will help clear backed-up kitchen and bathroom sinks with 8x the volume of air compared to a traditional plunger. Promising review:"Y'all, this thing is amazing! My kitchen sink was completely clogged for four days. I've been trying to clear the drain with a different sink plunger that I already had, and it didn't do diddly-squat. I was about to give up and call a plumber. Then I decided to order this one, and it just completely cleared the drain in like three minutes. So then I decided to take it to the bathroom sink that had been draining extremely slowly and within a minute, I had the water running so quickly and smoothly again. I got the small one, and it's the perfect size for kitchen and bathroom sinks." — JNeen

If Your Home Were A Business, These 31 Products Would All Be Up For Employee Of The Month
We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Time to start crafting a tiny comemorative plaque for the water-absorbing crystals that brought your houseplant back to life. 1. Ceiling fan carbon filters because I KNOW you've been slacking when it comes to dusting up there. Now you can do the opposite of kicking up a dust storm when you turn on the fan. The carbon filter pads snag dust, pollen, mold spores, smoke, dander, and other allergens right out of the air. Just swap out the filters every 1–3 months. Barnakl is a small business. Promising review: "I wasn't sure what to expect when purchasing these, but now they are a staple in every room of our house. Within three days the air smelled more crisp and was easier to breathe in our home. So simple and effective!" — Haylee Marez Get a three-pack from Amazon for $19.99. 2. A set of massively popular moisture-wicking double-brushed microfiber sheets so soft and cuddly, you'll feel like you're staying at a 5-star hotel. You'll forget aaaalll about thread count when you slide into these sheets. LuxClub is a small business that specializes in soft, durable, luxury-style sheets. P romising review: 'LOVE THESE!! I was searching for a sheet set that would help me sleep more comfortably at night and found these. I have terrible hot flashes with night sweats and get up in the morning, just miserable. Of course, these do not eliminate my hot flashes as no sheets will, but they definitely make my nights much more comfortable by eliminating wet bedding, and I definitely appreciate that! Aside from their moisture-wicking abilities, they are very soft, easy to look a,t and launder extremely well. I would highly recommend these for anyone shopping for sheet sets and especially for anyone experiencing night sweats!! ' — Shannon Warfel Get it from Amazon for $29.71+ (available in sizes Twin–California King, with deep pockets, and in 40 styles). 3. A pack of Monkey Hooks to hang just about anything on drywall WITHOUT tools. Push the monkey tail-shaped hook into the wall and twist — you'll have a sturdy hook for hanging picture frames, mirrors, and plants faster than you can peel a banana. Promising review: "Ordered these to hang a mirror for my daughter. She has the tendency to want to change things around in her room, and these hooks caught my eye. They are well-designed and easy to use. No tools needed. The little plastic install guides help keep the hole straight but is not required. They are removable and reusable, which serves our purpose well. They are low impact and create a small hole that is easier to patch than some of the screw-in or hammer-in type wall anchors. Would recommend!!!" — JP21 Get a pack of 30 from Amazon for $13.49. 4. A mesh screen cleaner with two handles so you can actually see out of your screen door again. Oh, look! New neighbors. The pad can be used wet or dry and has long fibers that deep clean in between the gaps in the screen. Promising review: "This thing is the greatest invention since sliced bread! It actually works! Works great at cleaning all my screens, from the small home screens to our large patio screen. We live in southern Utah, where red dirt/dust is everywhere, and this simple tool takes the work out of cleaning screens. My secret to using this tool is to have a bucket of sudsy water to dip the head into occasionally as you run it up and down and side by side. No streaks, no dirt, no fuss; plus, it's gentle on the screen. I definitely recommend this product and seller." — KarenLynn Get it from Amazon for $14.99. 5. A pack of carborundum sponges — YES, the stuff they make bulletproof vest plates out of — because tough jobs require tough solutions. Just dip one of these in water and start scouring — the nano-particles will get to work scraping off stubborn stains in your kitchen, garage, or outdoors. The high density sponges are squishy on the inside with an emery layer on the outside. They can be cut into smaller chunks for cleaning nooks and crannies. Promising review: "Nice and thin. You'll find so many more uses for these around the house than just getting stuff off the underside of cookware! I had hard, scaly water deposits on the glass surrounding our powder room faucet (one of those fancy, highfalutin modern-looking things). I've tried everything for four years to get this stuff off. One day I thought, maybe i'll try my sponges. Took it all off super easily!!!! Faucet looks like new. My only rec is to spot-test your item first before using it because it will scratch certain surfaces if you scrub too aggressively (for example, it gets the burned-on, weird stuff off of the bottom of my fave Our Place pan, but I rubbed too hard in one spot and it took the color right off lol)." — Hoarder Get an eight-pack from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in two sponge thicknesses). 6. A set of wood repair markers ready to turn back the hands of time to before your cat went to town on all your chair legs. It'll feel like an art project, but you'll end up with refreshed wood furniture. The kit comes with markers, crayons for deeper scratches, and a sharpener. Tip: Some reviewers suggest applying the marker and then quickly wiping it with a paper towel to avoid over-applying. Promising review: "This product did a great job on my severely scratched wood flooring. I used it in a rental home and on our own floors. The markers did a great job on the wood flooring and there are several colors you can sort of mix and match to get the right shade. It dries with a slight shiny, waxy shine. Good value for the money! The wax pencils work OK, too, but the markers did fantastic. They didn't repair the wood but certainly hid some of the damage. To me, well worth the price." — Reviewer Get a set of six markers and six crayons for $8.88. 7. And Howard Products Feed-N-Wax wood polish and conditioner to give your furniture an impossibly lustrous shine previously never seen in your home. The carnauba wax and beeswax enhance and protect your wood from drying out, so you can keep your great-grandmother's rocking chair in tip-top shape with just a few swipes. Many reviewers started by using Restor-A-Finsh to blend out minor scratches before finishing with the Feed-N-Wax. It's as simple as wiping on and off! Promising review:"I got this product a few hours ago from Amazon and now have shiny floors! It gave the really dull hardwood floors of my prewar NYC apartment an impressive shine. Really impressive. A little goes a long way: I used only about two ounces to shine about 500 square feet of clean floors. Before using it on the floors, I tested the polish on an old wooden side table that is scarred and needs sanding. It looked a lot better afterwards." — KindleCustomer2 Get it from Amazon for $10.47+ (available in three sizes). 8. A set of plastic shoe cubbies so you can finally take care of Shoe Mountain. No mystery here: Your guests will appreciate not having to climb over your pile of sneakers, and your boots will appreciate not being squished into pancakes. Promising review:"I used to have a two-tier metal rack that was nowhere near enough storage space, and there were always shoes all over the floor. I put this together in a rather short while, and now my closet is clean! Totally love this because it is so spacious, and you can build it in any shape you want." — Mama D Get a 15-cube set from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors). 9. Dryer vent cleaners to banish all the dust and debris that's been hiding just beneath the filter that you actually do clean regularly. How sneaky! It'll improve your dryer's performance and prevent fire risks, all without the need to buy a new machine. Promising review:"I was a little skeptical when I took this out of the package, yet my doubt turned to joy LOL. These are a great buy, and I believe I will serve my dryer well past its lifetime. My dryer is only a year old and I ALWAYS, after every use, clean the lint filter. I was surprised how much settles to the base of the dryer underneath the filter trap. You may have to use this a few times, depending on your machine, to get all the lint out, but at least you'll get results. Yes, I know its easier to use the vacuum to get it out, I prefer not lugging the vacuum out for this and this is cheaper AND I can give one away since they give you two." — P. Andersen Get it from Amazon for $7.99. 10. A power strip with an ultra-thin outlet cover so you can enjoy all your ports without dealing with bulky cords getting in the way of keeping your furniture flush to the wall. Promising review:"The design of this is great. I always hated putting plugs behind furniture and either not using the plug, or the furniture being inches away from the wall. This is the perfect solution. I have a few of these now behind couches and dressers in the house and they are great. This is more expensive than some other flat extension cords but I think the look and quality of these is worth it." — Adam C. Get it from Amazon for $23.95+ (available in four sizes and two styles). 11. Erase-A-Hole putty to fix cracks in drywall, plaster, and wood that are giving your place a sorta-haunted vibe. It's as easy as applying ChapStick — just rub it in! The handheld applicator uses a custom formula that minimizes shrinking and withstands sanding. Promising review:"I love this stuff! It's super easy to use, and it flawlessly [hides] anything from nail holes to larger drywall anchor holes. Bonus that my walls are white and I can even get away with not repainting if I do a clean job! I hope they never stop making this stuff." — bookworm Get it from Amazon for $14.89 (also available in multipacks). 12. A Pikk-it tool offering a quick solution to one of life's little miseries: wondering why your vacuum isn't sucking (in a good way) and discovering that the brush is completely cocooned in loose hair. This handy tool will free your roller from its hairy prison so it can proceed up more hair. Bonus: You can also use this tool to pick strands out of your hair brush! Amazon, Promising review: "You need this. This is a lifesaver. The amount of time I used to spend cutting out hair from my vacuum brush/roller has been cut by a fraction with this little tool. Wow!" — Holly "Between myself (medium long hair) and my overly fluffy cat, a lot of hair and fluff was continually getting caught up on the roller brush of my vacuum. I dreaded vacuuming because it took so long to pull and snip the hairs wrapped up on the roller brush out with scissors. Not anymore! This silly, little, inexpensive thing works great! Super quick to remove all the hair/fur — in virtually a minute, then back to vacuuming with my lovely Miele vacuum." — MKS Get it from Amazon for $9.99. 13. Hope's Perfect Sink solution that cleans and then basically creates a water-repellant force field over your sink to protect it from stains and damage. It works on everything from stainless steel to porcelain (along with cast iron, corian, composite, acrylic, etc.), ensuring that your sink rinses clean and shines like new, no matter how many cups of coffee you pour on it. Sue Storm would approve! BuzzFeed editor Maitland Quitmeyer loves this stain-removing polish: "I bought this for my white porcelain kitchen sink, and I've since texted five people about it, which is really a lot for such a boring grown-up product. It cleans beautifully, but the *best* thing about it is its ability to repel stains after cleaning. You know that thing when you rinse out your coffee cup and the coffee water just lingers in your sin,k and you have to purposefully rinse it out for two minutes? You don't have to do that — the coffee can't stick to the sink and just goes RIGHT down the drain. Time saved, sink clean — this is really a Virgo dream product right here." Promising review:"Holy banana peppers! This stuff ROCKS! I hate cleaning. You clean, stuff looks okay and smells nice for like an hour, and then it's as if you've never cleaned. We have a deep stainless steel sink that I love, except for the cleaning. It never looks clean, so cleaning it isn't exactly rewarding. I mean, I clean it because germs, pandemic, etc, but I don't like anything about it. I saw this on some BuzzFeed "things you should buy on Amazon" and ordered it. And ignored it. Now, as there's a quarantine, even as an essential worker, I really have no excuse to not clean. Sigh. I splooshed some in the sink, like I did with Barkeeper's Friend liquid, and scrubbed away as usual. However, when I went to rinse, it was all sparkly and shiny and the water beaded up! I seriously made my husband and daughter come into the kitchen to look at my sparkly sink! This is the cleanest this sink has ever been, and I seriously LOVE this product! Off to order more before you all read my review and discover its true awesomeness. I didn't take any pictures before because why the hell would I do that, but believe me, the difference is amazing!!" — Amazon Customer Get the value size from Amazon for $29.95 or the smaller size for $9.95. 14. A pack of washing machine cleaning tablets designed to attack built-up detergent scum, dirt, and general grossness so your clothes can get as clean as possible. Throw in a tablet, run a normal wash cycle, and congratulate yourself on a chore well done. Promising review: "I didn't think I would ever be so excited about such a thing as washing machine cleaning tablets. I also never realized how dirty my washing machine was. It now sparkles, doesn't smell musty, and has removed so much gunk from around the drum/gasket. You should get these." — AVDW Get a pack of six from Amazon for $11.98 (also available in packs of three and five). 15. And a dishwasher cleaner and disinfectant to help make the thing that cleans your clean. Its citrusy formula helps remove limescale, rust, grease, and other nasty buildup so your machine can run more efficiently, and you don't have to pick up the slack. Read our review of Affresh cleaning tablets! Promising reviews:"I'm so glad I discovered this cleanser. The plumbing backed up…the smell lingered after several cycles with bleach, baking soda, vinegar, and dishwasher detergent. I almost gave in to purchasing a new dishwasher before discovering Affresh Dishwasher Cleaner. It worked after the first use. I now use it monthly." — lejay Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $8.98. 16. A blessedly effective, pet-safe carpet cleaning solution capable of turning your brown carpet into whatever color it was when you bought it without having to invest several hours into a scrub session. It works with all cleaning machines, even the rental ones from the hardware store. Promising reviews:"This is a wonderful product. I have an older dog who can't always wait until I get home from work, so accidents occasionally happen. I have a Hoover Rug Scrubber, and this product is very easy to use with my machine. Carpet Miracle works amazingly well on stains and odors, even those that have set for a while. I did the carpet in the 'room of shame' twice just to be sure, although for normal soil and odors, once should be more than enough. It leaves behind a wonderfully clean, fresh scent, and the carpet feels and looks wonderful. I plan on continuing to use this product to keep my carpets clean and my home smelling fresh." — Vicky Faurot "I wish I could give it 100 stars. I have never really did a review on here but I had to today. This is the best carpet cleaner I have ever used hands down, love it." — cliffcharles Get it from Amazon for $19.99. 17. A luxury-scented candle that internet sleuths figured out smells just like the way pricier Le Labo Santal 33. It has an impressive throw, meaning you can actually fill your home with its calming jasmine, oud, and sandalwood scent instead of having to stick your nose right up to the flame. Amazon If you're wondering what oud is, think of the smell of fallen trees in the woods after a hard rain. Lulu Candles is a US-based small business that specializes in scented candles and perfumes. Promising review: "I have been searching high and low for a good candle that's reminiscent of Le Labo's Santal 33, and this is it! And for a fraction of the cost. This will definitely be a repeat purchase, please don't ever discontinue this scent!" — Lindsay Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in seven sizes, in gift box options, in packs of two, and in a variety of scents). 18. A Chom Chom pet hair remover if you'd prefer your furniture to be fur-free. It has a sticky roller (no wasteful adhesive strips) that clings to hair and deposits it into a built-in compartment. You can tell Fido to stay off the couch all you want, but dogs don't speak Human! Instead, use this reusable roller to reclaim your seating. Promising review:"Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes, but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-pound tabby, and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing — he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care — it's THAT good." — DH Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in four colors). 19. A tea bag organizer for avid tea drinkers who are sick of getting hit with an avalanche of boxes every time they open their cupboard. This slim device can fit up to 120 standard-sized bags. This is brought to you by the small business YouCopia. Promising review:"It holds so many; the storage capacity is wild! It was able to clean up all of our various types of tea boxes and slim down the space. I should have bought this sooner." — BB Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes). 20. A bio-enzymatic odor and stain spray to help with accidents that happen sometimes. The formula creates a nice, deep-cleaning lather, so pee spots, vomit, and stubborn stains can be easily and thoroughly erased. Promising review: "This pet odor eliminator is a game-changer! It effectively neutralizes unpleasant smells, leaving the room smelling fresh without a harsh chemical scent. Easy to use, it works on everything from furniture to carpets, tackling both surface odors and deep-set smells." — Dan Kline Get it from Amazon for $15.96. 21. A set of paint touch-up pens for when you start to notice scuffs on your walls but don't want to commit to a full paint job. Just fill the pens up with paint, and you can forgo the whole roller brush entirely. This is also ideal for hiding any oopsies from your landlord when they do a walkthrough, looking for excuses to keep your security deposit. Slobproof, Slobproof is a small business that specializes in home improvement products. Some reviewers use these for detail work on designs and murals. As an added bonus, these are totally airtight, so the paint in them won't dry out if you don't finish up the paint in the pen all at once. Promising review:"These are genius! They work so well and make it no hassle to quickly retouch small areas that get scratched up. Never knew something like this existed, and now am in love with them!" — Jeff Get a pack of two from Amazon for $14.99 (also available in packs of five). 22. And a WD-40 pen that provides all the same benefits as the spray can (quieting squeaks, lubricating hinges, preventing rust, etc.) but now with an easy-to-maneuver, precise pen tip. You could just walk around your home, touching up every hinge you see! Promising review: "I love WD-40 products and use them for everything. I spray on shovels to keep dirt or snow from sticking, spray around windows and thresholds to deter bugs, clean Sharpies off wood and walls, and, of course, stop squeaky doors. These small direct-point application pens are great. Keep one in the glove box, my kitchen 'junk' drawer, and the house toolbox." — BBP623 Get a three-pack from Amazon for $12.99 (also available with a trucker hat for some reason). 23. A pair of fan light pull cords so you can finally know which turns on the fan and which turns on the light. What an ~illuminating~ product! Promising review:"I'm pleased with the length and how easy it was to adjust and install. The pieces feel solid and not easily broken." — AHMH Get them from Amazon for $5.88+ (available in two lengths and three finishes). 24. A silicone freezing tray that lets you section your leftover food into perfect frozen portions so you don't have to unfrost your entire vat of black beans every time you want a single serving. It's also oven-safe up to 415 degrees so you can bake little slices of brownies or bread. It comes with a lid to help maintain freshness and keep out odors. It's made of food-safe silicone that's BPA free and dishwasher safe. It's great for little sides of beans, sauces, soups, and more. Souper Cubes is a small business that also sells cookie trays and stoneware. Promising review:"So happy that I found these. I'm the only one in my household who enjoys soup year-round. Have you ever tried to make homemade soup for one? I say it's impossible! But no longer. I can brew up the stock pot with bone broth or my favorite home soup. Fill up my Souper Cubes, freeze, pop out, store my goodies in a freezer bag, and I'm ready for the next batch!" — Debbie R. Texas Check out my colleague's Souper Cubes review. Get it from Amazon for $19.95. 25. A rust-removing gel spray – you may be tempted to say "abracadabra" as you use it. It's that magical! The powerful gel clings to rust on contact, so you can watch stains start melting off your tiles immediately; no scrubbing needed. Use this for cleaning bathtubs, showers, toilets, colorfast fabrics, vertical surfaces, and hard-to-reach spots. It's nonabrasive and made with a nonhydrofluoric acid-based formula. Promising review:"Holy wizardry! Seriously, it was more work to clean the mirror over the vanity than to use this product. With almost no effort, this made my dark orange, iron-water shower stall white again. I definitely suggest wearing a mask or bandana and running the ventilation fan if spraying in an enclosed area. Great product!" — Jessica B Get it from Amazon for $11.35. 26. A pack of Miracle-Gro water storing crystals that'll prevent both under- *and* over-watering, which I believe are the top two killers of plants. When you water your houseplants, the crystals retain the moisture and release it as the soil dries. Amazon, This works for both indoor and outdoor plants. Promising review: "I have deck rail flower boxes and they get full sun most of the day. I filled in the drain holes to hold more water and added these to the soil. Both made a huge difference in the quality of life for the plants. They were and still are gorgeous even if I couldn't water every day. I do have to admit I used more per planter than the recommended amount." — Pattijwr Get it from Amazon for $10.28. 27. The Pink Stuff, an all-purpose paste that you can use to clean basically any surface — it works on everything from marble and wood to rubber boots and car steering wheels. Wasting time scrubbing will be a thing of the past. And the future? Sparkly clean items as far as the eye can see. Promising review:"Oh my gosh — this stuff is a life changer! Used it to get my fiberglass shower totally clean. Nothing else would get it done, and this stuff brought my shower back to near new in one use. We've since cleaned a weird, chalky film off our garage door, removed wall markings, and cleaned my storm door. We'll never be without a jar (or three) of this stuff. Worth every penny." — Nancy F. Get it from Amazon for $5.97. 28. A pack of disposable shower hair catchers for people who often forget to clean the drain after a shower and too squeamish to maintain a device like the TubShroom. You can just close your eyes and throw these away when they're too hair-infested. Promising review:"For anyone with long hair, drainage clogging in the shower is a pain. So THANKS to whoever thought of such a simple but clever solution. They stick perfectly and the glue lasts like three weeks. It literally does not let a hair pass, and it's just so easy to place and remove. I wish I had known about this product before! A must-buy." — MER Get a 25-pack from Amazon for $11.99 (also available in a 50-pack and 100-pack). 29. A Capri Blue Volcano-scented multipurpose cleaner — yes, that's right, the signature Anthropologie scent — to make cleaning feel extra rewarding. Now you can clean and leave behind a luxurious scent that'll have guests looking at your home in a new light. Was it always so chic in here? Promising review: "This stuff smells SO good! Like a sweet, sugary citrus, but not overpowering so, just a light fresh scent. The smell lasts forever. I used a kitchen towel to wipe my counters down and then hung the towel up and the next day I could still smell it when I walked into the kitchen. For the scent alone, I would purchase this again! As for cleaning ... it is not a disinfectant, it is just a general multipurpose cleaner, so I wouldn't use it to clean toilets or anything like that. It does a WONDERFUL job at cleaning and cutting grime and grease though. It actually surprised me! It doesn't leave residue or streaks but does leave a clean shiny surface. The bottle is plenty big. The only con is that the spray mechanism doesn't work the greatest. Sometimes it sticks. I use glass spray bottles so I just put it in one of those to solve that issue. Overall, definitely recommend!" — Joshua Get it from Amazon for $15. 30. Dawn Powerwash, an impressive spray-on dish soap capable of giving you those clean swipes through nightmarish messes previously only seen in commercials. Spray this on dishes, but you can also use it to tackle dirty range hoods, backsplashes, bathtubs, grills, or anywhere else with caked-on food or dirt. Just spray on (don't add water until you rinse!) and wipe. Promising reviews: "What doesn't it do? I absolutely love this product. It works great on dishes and pretty much anything you want to clean! Soap scum; gone! Laundry stains; bye! Baseboards/woodwork sparkle! Sneakers, yup! I hate cleaning, so anything that makes it easier ❤️." — Kimba " The only dish soap allowed in my household. 😅 JK, I have used other different types, and this is the only one that has worked amazingly in all my cleaning. Not only do I use it on my dishes but to clean my bathroom, husband's grill, and everything else that needs a good cleaning." — Lizbeth LF Get the starter kit (with one reusable spray bottle and one refill) from Amazon for $8.44 (also available in other pack styles and two other scents). 31. A rapid egg cooker so you can stop settling for overcooked hardboiled eggs with gross gray yolks. You deserve better. Along with hardboiled eggs, this thing can make omelets and poached and scrambled eggs, all without close supervision. Promising review:"I was skeptical when I ordered it but use it constantly. I live in barracks and do not have a stove. I bought it for boiled eggs but use it much more for breakfast burritos. Super easy. Butter tray, put in egg and water, press the button, and walk away. By time I'm dressed for work it's ready. Throw it in a tortilla and walk out with it. More nutritious than Pop-Tarts. It does hard-boiled eggs well but don't assume thats all its good for. Great for college kids, military people, traveling workers, or anyone without access to a full kitchen." — a.l.s Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in eight colors).
