Do Every Room In Your House A Favor And Check Out The Best Prime Day Home Deals
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. 49% off Y0140 iRobot Roomba (bringing it to $10 cheaper than its last lowest price) because if robots are gonna steal our jobs, it might as well be the annoying ones. This bagless machine vacuums AND mops at the same time with a special brush, meaning you might actually have clean floors for once. Promising review: "I love this robot. We got this because our baby is constantly on the floor, so we just wanted a little extra help with keeping the floors clean. We run it every night, and seeing how much it picks up blows our mind. We have two dogs, so dog hair and Cheerios are mainly what we get, but it has definitely made a difference with our floors on top of what we already do to keep our floors clean. Highly recommend. We have vinyl wood floors, so it runs fine on it, but it can go on carpet as well. We just leave the room doors closed because it is very loud when it runs and we don't want it to come into the rooms." —MakaylaPrice: $139.99 (originally $274; also available in two other styles for a different or no discount) Up to 43% off a Casper Original Hybrid Mattress that won't creak or send you rolling directly into the middle like a deflating air mattress. BuzzFeed Shopping editor Chelsea Stuart says, "I've been sleeping on a Queen-size Casper Hybrid mattress for 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+ (sometimes $836.50 at Amazon; currently $1,095+ at Casper); available in sizes twin XL–California king) 53% off a set of five KitchenAid mixing bowls in the chic shade "pistachio" — 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 22% off (that's the lowest price this goes for!) a compact Levoit air purifier 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 p.m. 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) 23% off (its lowest price ever!) a 6-in-1 Our Place Cast Iron Perfect Pot — 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) Up to 41% off an electric, adjustable standing desk 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! 40% off select colors of 40-ounce Stanley Quenchers (with select color 45% off with a lightning deal) — because if you're going to add to your collection or hop on the Emotional Support Water Bottle bandwagon, you might as well save a few bucks while you're at it. Promising review: "I used to make fun of people for using these Stanley cups; I always thought they were overpriced and overhyped. But I purchased this for my little sister who is in nursing school, and she takes this thing with her everywhere!!! All she does is rave about how amazing it is! So I bought one as well, and they really are amazing products. Made super well, they keep ice in them for hours and hours! Super comfortable to hold in your hand, not too heavy or bulky. Easy to clean and seem to be super durable. I've dropped mine I don't even know how many times now, and not a single mark! They also don't leak easy at all. Unless you're holding it completely upside down, even then it doesn't leak fast. Super happy!" —Jon & Katie SeversPrice: $27 (originally $45; deal available on select colors, including fuchsia, mist, and stargaze) And check out the rest of Stanley's Prime Day deals! 34% off a TikTok-famous Bissell Little Green upholstery cleaner 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) 40% off a Vitamix Propel 750 blender (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! 40% off a Govee smart floor standing lamp about to ~light up~ your life. This is not any ordinary lamp. It has 25 color preset modes you can control with your phone, as well as a music mode, and it's compatible with Alexa. It'll basically feel like you're living in the future owning this lamp. Promising review: "Bought this light because I thought it was cool, but it is more than that! I use it every day, and it has many colors and patterns to choose from. The thing I love the most is you can set up times for it to come on and turn off. You can set how bright you want it, so I had it turned on with a dimmed light to help me wake up in early mornings." —Rueben ThaoPrice: $59.99 (originally $99.99; available in two colors)And check out more of Govee's Prime Day deals! 31% off a large Brita water pitcher 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)Replacement filters are on sale too, BTW!

Check out a TikTok of the magic mushroom funnel in review: "I am obsessed with this funnel!!! I juice a lot of citrus and juices for cocktails, and this little guy is the perfect size for bottling. It's beyond cute and really great quality. I'm always hesitant about buying silicone items, as I don't want them to be too thin. This is perfect! Sturdy and cute! Can't get better than that! The perfect addition to any cottagecore kitchen!" —Abbey KlemPrice: $9.45+ (originally $14.95+; available in two sizes). 30% off a pack of ceiling fan carbon filters (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.

Promising review: "I've been dealing with WebOS on my LG TV for three years now, and enough is enough. Fire TV stick is 🔥 I love this thing. I can even view my Blink cameras on the big screen now; so cool. Setup is so easy and it linked to my other Alexa-enabled devices just great.

And you can check out all the other Fire TV Prime Day deals, including a 50-inch 4K Fire TV for 35% review: "We were a little hesitant about trying this but have a beautiful TV that was just a little too old to be a smart TV. We were connecting our laptop via USB cable and that was a pain with the cable running across the living room. After a friend suggested this we were still in it work? Could we figure it out? Would it be a pain to use? We are not tech experts so any changes are usually challenging. But it was so easy. We did it in 15 minutes and were already adding to our watchlist. Literally thousands of shows to choose from. Old favorites, new exclusives, and movies galore. Alexa is there to help. So happy with this purchase and much cheaper than buying a new TV. Thank you Amazon for another great product." —LucyPrice: $17.99 (originally $39.99) 33% off a Ninja Artisan Outdoor Pizza Oven (the lowest it's been!) with an impressive 5-in-1 functionality that can make pizza, bake, broil, warm, and proof.

I divided the pizza dough into three sections and cooked pizza at three temperatures to find the best combination, after using the dough recipe in the included book. I liked the 550 temperature because the crust was not overly cooked or undercooked. You definitely can not walk away from the oven or get busy making another pizza as it cooks super fast. It's best to test out the oven to find your sweet spot. I'm in love with the versatility of this oven. I've been wanting to cook more pizza outside in the summer to reduce heating the house. Highly recommend this oven " —BrooksPrice: $199.95 (originally $299.99) And check out more Ninja Prime Day deals!

Promising reviews: "I can't say enough good things about these sheets. I was waking up at night HOT all the time and thinking it was a physical thing for me personally. I was reading online and stumbled on these and thought ' if my uber-expensive sheets are actually making me hot at night??' I ordered these and I'm sleeping like a baby now. No more night sweats. Ordering some for my son as well. Game changer! High quality and exceptional price." —J. Marshall"I read from other reviews these sheets were soft so I wasn't too surprised when I received them and man are they soft and so comfortable. We have Egyptian cotton sheets that were expensive and I promise we have changed them back out for the comfort of these sheets. The cotton sheets were cold and these were just right. The other thing is my husband has thin skin that any nick he will bleed. Well he has bled on these white sheets and when we washed them (in cold water as instructed) the blood always comes out and never stains. I can't say enough great things about them except to say all three of my adult kids are receiving a set as part of their Christmas!" —Sheree ChrestmanPrice: $30.57 (typically $39.20; available in sizes twin–California king, plus sheet sets with deep pockets for taller mattresses and 45 colors and patterns) 32% off a luxe cold press juicer (its lowest price ever!) so you can have fruity and/or veggie-packed drinks as you sit back and watch your little one when their soccer game.

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) 20% off a Ruggable machine-washable rug so your living room can stay looking on-point and elegant despite your children's spilling skills. Promising review: "Amazing. Well worth the price. I love the two-piece design. Looks great. Very slip resistant, doesn't move at all. No need for rug grippers or protectors for hardwood. My kids already tested it out by dumping a cup of strawberry milk on the rug. It didn't leak through to the hardwood. Then we just threw it in the washer. I'm going to fill my house with these." —MattSandPrice: $71.20+ (originally $89+; available in multiple colors and sizes)And check out more Ruggable Prime Day deals! $400 off a 49-inch Samsung ultrawide monitor (the 2024 model) that'll significantly expand your screen space so you can stop painstakingly switching between tabs all the time — a productivity game-changer. Promising review: "Hands-down the best thing ever to happen to my productivity working from home. My favorite thing about this monitor — besides the incredible amount of screen space I now have to display and organize everything I need — is the sheer number of cables it has cut out and the amount of desk space it has freed up. My dual monitor setup required two power cables and three HDMI/displayport connector cables. Using my laptop required the laptop charger and AND required the laptop to be open on my desk. Now I only have one cable to power the monitor, 2 HDMIs to my PCs and a single USB-C that both powers and connects my laptop, which means I can leave it closed on a stand behind my monitor. I am so, SO happy I bought this monitor and am kicking myself for not doing it sooner. " —KellyPrice: $799.99 (originally $1,199.99; also on sale in a 34-inch size)And check out the rest of Samsung's Prime Day deals! 35% off a set of 22 Rubbermaid Brilliance containers (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) 38% off a Hoover ~PowerMax~ vacuum designed with pet households in mind — it has a HEPA filter, multipurpose pet tools, and an extra-large dirt container so you can clean for longer. I stopped sneezing just thinking about this. Promising review: "This vacuum is AMAZING! I have two dogs and two cats, meaning I have a lot of hair, dander, sand, and dirt in my home. This vacuum gets ALL the hair off everything. Has attachments to reach hair in hard to reach areas! The suction power is so strong, gets every grain of sand." —Ally $129.99 (originally $209.99) 35% off the Bissell Cleanview cordless vacuum — it has a deep-cleaning "furbrush" to pick up hair from upholstery, floors, and your car interior, powerful suction, lights to help you see the mess in front of you, and a ~SmartSeal~ system to trap allergens like dust and dander. And it easily converts from a stick vac to a hand vac! Promising review: "In the last 10 years I've had a Dyson, Shark, 2 off brand cordless vacuums and now this Bissell. I would say I'm an expert on the cordless stick vacuum, and this is top of the charts!! I have a dog that sheds, so I vacuum daily. I chose this vacuum because of the pet hair attachment and it doesn't disappoint! It works as well as the Dyson, and is substantially better than the Shark, for less than half of what either of those cost. It came with a nice variety of attachments, as well as a wall charging mount. The vacuum is sturdy, portable, and very easy to use." —A HudsonPrice: $149.99 (originally $229.99) And check out the rest of Bissell's Prime Day deals! 35% off a Nespresso Vertuo Plus (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) 36% off (that's $170 off!) a Dyson V8 Plus cordless vacuum that's lightweight, powerful, and capable of capturing ~99.99% of particles~. Plus it comes with a hair attachment to pick up pet fur and shed human hair too! Promising review: "Best vacuum for pet hair. After going through many different makes of vacuum cleaners, I have finally found one that works for the fur of our long-haired dog. I had heard how great the Dyson series of vacuums were, but was always put off by the cost. Finally, after being frustrated by other brands which were effective for a period but then became more useful as doorstops than as a cleaner, I made the decision to 'bite the bullet' and spend the extra money on the brand-name vacuum. The first time I used my Dyson, it picked up handfuls of fur from areas that I thought were clean. The carpets look cleaner, and hardwood floors pristine. Suction is strong even on the lower setting to make floors look like new. Emptying the canister is as easy as could be. Battery life is sufficient to clean my small home. I love that by placing the Dyson in the wall hanger it attaches directly to the charger. No searching for charging cords, or charging/change detachable batteries. My Dyson is always ready and charged whenever I need it. It is neatly tucked away, taking up little room. I appreciate the fact that the Dyson is lightweight and easily maneuvered. It is light enough that when the head is removed and used separately, makes cleaning our carpeted stairs easier than ever. In summary, I love my Dyson, and would recommend that the extra cost is well worth it. You will save yourself the frustration of purchasing multiple machines which are not effective. and which will end up costing more in the long-run. My only regret is that by thinking of the cost I was actually denying myself the 'pleasure' of a cleaner home. I don't worry about how much our beautiful dog sheds, and can enjoy her playful personality." —Rosey PoseyPrice: $299.99 (originally $469.99, sometimes $349.99 at Amazon and currently $469.99 at Dyson) and shop all the Dyson deals Dyson V15 Detect with the built-in LED light to show every speck of dust is also on sale — it's $180 off, down to $569.99! 62% off the latest model of Blink outdoor security cameras (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.

If you don't wanna miss a thing that's happening in and around your home, these cams have you FULLY covered. 👀 Promising review: "I couldn't be happier with the Ring Doorbell and Outdoor Camera combo. The setup was incredibly simple everything synced up with the app in minutes, and the instructions were super easy to follow. The video quality is excellent, both day and night. The doorbell gives a clear view of anyone at the door, and the outdoor camera covers a wide area with sharp resolution. I get real-time notifications, and the motion detection is customizable so I'm not bombarded with alerts from passing cars. What I love most is the peace of mind it brings. Whether I'm home or away, I can see what's going on and even talk to visitors through the app. The battery life is solid too – I only need to recharge every few weeks." —J.

You can display classical paintings, photographs, and modern art with the click of a button on the anti-reflective matte screen — and then turn on your favorite show when you're ready to watch! Promising review: "This TV is incredible, I would definitely recommend a professional installation if you don't know your way around cutting through a wall and installing a box to hide the wiring box for the frame, that is, if you want the authentic picture look with no wires. The frame adjusts to level like you would adjust a traditional framed photo, which was really convenient. The frame sound bar is definitely the way to go, and the remote to the frame has a solar charger and USB-C charging port, which begs the question: why aren't all TV remotes rechargeable?? Samsung really hit it out of the park with the frame TV, and the pairing with the frame soundbar, it's the best!" —Meghan RunnelsPrice: $1,197.96 (originally $1,997.99 — available in other sizes and shop the rest of Samsung's deals here) 46% off an Instant Pot Duo that'll level up your cooking game in ways you could only dream of — until now.

Promising review: "We bought this a few weeks ago since we have been hearing so much about them and let me tell you, these are the best thing to come around since sliced bread. Basically we haven't had anything to eat in two weeks that hasn't been made in the Instant Pot. The pot itself comes with a recipe book and there are so many more online and we are yet to find a recipe that isn't amazing. The build of the Pot is super sturdy as well. Highly recommend." —Thomas DPrice: $69.99 (originally $129.95) — and shop all the Instant Pot deals here 30% off an upright smokeless fire pit that'll look sleek enough for city-slickers while still satisfying folks who wish they lived out in the woods. Promising review: "This is an incredible smokeless fire pit! I've done two burns and I'm already in love with it! Not 100% smokeless, but darn near close. Who doesn't love a good fire? This unit should be on your short list." —Roberto Andrade $415 (originally $595; also available in a patio version) $70 off a Marshall Acton III speaker (the lowest you can get it for) that'll look super chic on your living room table or shelves and sound super rich. Reviewers love how easy it is to pair and control, too! Promising review: "Truly an outstanding speaker. This little giant delivers incredible sound, crisp, clear vocals and rich bass. I had it up and running with a MAC in less than 3 minutes out of the box, no need for their app. Excellent bluetooth connectivity, strong, consistent connection. I've been musing for years what compact speaker system to buy for years, very glad I chose his one." —itsdinkPrice: $199.99 (typically $279.99; available in black and cream — the midnight blue is not on sale) 48% off an Alexa-compatible smartplug so your bedroom is truly a relaxing oasis.

You can even grab one for your coffee machine and start brewing before you get out of bed in the morning!Promising review: "The Alexa integration is great. It's super easy to hook up. I have it set up for my small bedroom light. It comes in handy when I need to turn on the light but don't want to fumble around in the dark for the switch. It shows you the whisper mode. Perfect if you want remote control access to your lights, TV, anything. Having two kids, it really comes in handy. I can have my lights on before I get home, so we aren't walking in the dark. I plan on getting another for my TV. It makes multitasking a little easier." —JessicaPrice: $12.99 (originally $24.99) 30% off a stunning arched full-length mirror that'll look elegant in your space and bring you lots of joy whenever you do a 'fit check. It's lightweight but sturdy and can easily be placed anywhere thanks to its standing holder. You also have the option of leaning it against a wall or hanging it vertically! Promising review: "It's so beautiful, I have it in the corner of my room and added some leafy vine for a cutesy appeal! Perfect size and shape, and I can see myself clearly. Seems very sturdy and not too heavy, it came right outta the box ready to go! Exactly the type of mirror I need to spruce up my space!" —SmplysavannaPrice: $48.96 (originally $69.99; available in two sizes, three shapes, and five colors/styles — not all are on sale) 54% off a set of BuzzFeed Tasty kitchen knives — it includes a chef, bread, utility, and paring knife, plus a set of four steak knives, and kitchen shears, all housed in a compact block that'll look nice sitting out on your counter.

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) 27% off a Breville espresso machine because you've been tempted to buy one and have been waiting for an excuse. Here it is! Promising review: "I've been really happy with the Breville Barista Express Espresso Machine. The stylish design and built-in grinder make me feel like a true coffee connoisseur. The quick heat-up time and adjustable grind size make it easy to customize my perfect shot. And the programmable shot volume ensures consistent espresso shots every time. Plus, the added bonus of being able to claim the title of 'at-home barista' is a definite plus. Highly recommend this machine to any coffee lover out there!" —Ashleigh JohnsonPrice: $549.95 (originally $749.95; available in two colors) Up to 30% off a memory foam body pillow you can adjust to your liking — it's filled with shredded memory foam that contours to your curves for maximum comfort!

I like to keep a pillow between my knees after a knee injury, and slowly this has become a habit to sleep with a pillow between my ankles as well for comfort. This body pillow is my ultimate sleep partner! Pull the trigger, you'll love it! It comes flat, then you leave it overnight to fluff." —TeacherTeacherPrice: $20.99+ (originally $29.99+; available in 28 colors) 20% off a retro-style air fryer because with the millennial love for all things vintage and all things air-fried, this was less of a possibility and more of an inevitability.

Setting up was a breeze, and the user-friendly control panel makes it easy to adjust settings depending on what I am cooking. Efficient cooking, consistent results, and easy cleanup make it the perfect addition to my kitchen. Overall a very solid choice!" —Xinkai ChenPrice: $183.99 (originally $229.99; deal available for two colors) Or 40% off a compact, nonstick 2.6-quart Dash air fryer (tied for its best price ever) that'll transform how you eat leftover fries without hogging all your counter space.

Also has an auto-shut-off function to prevent overcooking and a cool-touch review: "This is the perfect air fryer. I have tried several sizes and brands, and they were always too big or didn't work well. The Dash makes chicken and French fries in less than 10 minutes. They are crispy and delicious. Cleaning is a breeze, and the design is great for our space. We got this during Prime's early sale, so it was a great value for our money." —Kristen06Price: $35.99+ (originally $59.99; discount available for two colors) Up to 33% off an automatic pet food dispenser 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: $54.99+ (typically $69.98; available in two colors and a model with a camera) 30% off the All-in-One Pan from BuzzFeed's Goodful collection, because this lightweight yet heavy-duty nonstick pan can be used as everything from a sauté pan and stockpot to a wok, skillet, and braiser.

It is also so smooth inside that food just slides out with no sticking and so very easy to clean with just a little bit of soap and soft sponge." —Dale in TucsonPrice: $34.99 (originally $49.99; available in six colors) — and shop the rest of Goodful's deals here. 48% off a "Gracula" garlic crusher, because you know what? If a 108-year-old vampire lurking moodily in the trees in the Pacific Northwest isn't going to fall in love with you and grant you immortality, one might as well make your life in the kitchen a little easier. Promising review: "I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I've minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It's a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it, but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway, so it's not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!" —BarbiePrice: $9.95 (typically $18.99) 25% off the fan-favorite ChomChom pet hair roller 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) 33% off a TP-Link Wi-Fi extender (the lowest price ever) so you can boost your service throughout the whole house, even in those dead zones where your movies or files always buffer. Whether you've got a Zoom work meeting or an equally important episode of The Office to rewatch, this extender won't disappoint. Promising review: "I purchased this item because my job went from hybrid to work from home. My internet router is located in my master bedroom, but my office is in the middle of my house, meaning I didn't have a strong signal for work. I called my internet provider, and they wanted to charge me a lot of money to extend the internet across my house. I ended up buying this extender to help with the signal. I'm glad I purchased it because now I have coverage on the other side of my house. It was easy to install, and the app is super simple, all for a great price. Thanks to the TP-Link extender, without it, I would've had to go back to work at the office." —JaryPrice: $19.99 (originally $29.99) and shop all the TP-Link deals here $30 off a Hatch Restore 3 (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! Buy it!" —ItzelPrice: $139.99 (originally $169.99; available in four colors)

28 Travel-Ready Shoes So Good, You Only Need To Pack *One* Of These Pairs On Your Next Trip
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. There aren't many shoes you can wear on a walking tour and out dancing, but these Croc platforms can do it all. 1. Reebok Club C Sneakers that look great with just about anything, so you'll probably end up wearing them to death (but it's okay; you can just buy another pair!). Their cushioned insole will keep your feet comfortable and supported no matter where your travels take you! BuzzFeed Shopping editor Chelsea Stuart is a big fan: "I have three pairs of these babies because they're just so comfortable straight out of the box. You don't have to worry about blisters, and they don't look out of place with dresses and skirts. They're also simple enough to slip on and off when going through the airport, so they check all of my travel boxes!" Promising review: "Love these shoes! I try to pair these with almost every outfit because they're so comfy and stylish! Recently went to Philly, where I had to walk everywhere because we didn't rent a car, and these were the only pair of shoes I brought (I travel light). These didn't cramp up my feet at all as I walked over seven hours daily over the course of five days. Definitely recommend! But one thing hurts my creasing at the front of the shoe that comes with loving these shoes so much.😢" — Alli J Get them from Amazon for $45.21+ (available in sizes 5–11 and in various colors/patterns). 2. Or New Balance sneakers with a supportive foam midsole to keep your feet secure all day. Their retro vibe will pair well with a variety of outfits, and the mix of suede and mesh provides both breathability and much-needed durability. Promising review: "I bought these sneakers for an upcoming Disney World trip. I wanted something stylish to wear with jeans and capri pants. I wore them to work one day (I'm a nurse) to break them in. They are soooo comfortable!!! They have lots of room in the toes and great arch support. They are just as comfortable as my Brooks Levitate. I find myself reaching for them all the time. On top of it, they are super cute and stylish." — Deanna McNamara Get them from Amazon for $86.28+ (available in sizes 4–12 and in seven colors) 3. Adidas Cloudfoam sneakers so you can feel like you're walking guessed it, a cloud! The upper mesh material won't squeeze your feet uncomfortably; instead, it allows them to breathe so you don't overheat. They're ~multifunctional~ so you can explore new cities, hike scenic trails, go on a shopping spree, and more — all in just one pair. Promising reviews: "They felt weird the first time I put them on…but as I started walking in them it got better! Usually my feet are killing me by the end of the day or I'm just super sweaty in my dress shoes, but these are like walking on a literal CLOUD ☁️ and they let my feet breathe!" — Alyssa "Literally the BEST shoes ever! So comfy. I spent a whole day at Disney with no complaints, normally I'm tired after two hours of walking in the park, but with these babies, I was up and walking alll day with no problem." — Katherine Get them from Amazon for $38+ (available in sizes 5–11 and 18 colors). 4. Sorel strappy sandals with an EVA footbed that'll have your feet typing out a 5-star review while you sleep. The ridged platform provides an extra level of support that flatforms shoes simply can't. They're just so cushiony and bouncy, not to mention the fun color combos! Sorel Promising review:"These shoes are perfect! I was looking for a summer sandal that I could walk in/dance in while also being comfortable. I have flat feet and weak ankles so it was a gamble, but these are so cute and comfy. I will definitely check out their other shoes. I see that other people pointed this out, and it's important to note, the [hook and loop strap] is pretty loose so you may need to readjust a few times, but it's not inconvenient enough to return." — Flatfooted Get them from Amazon or direct from Sorel for $135 (available in sizes 5–12 and up to 10 colors). 5. Lightweight Croc platforms so you can look chic while strolling through city streets and lounging by the beach. They've got that classic Croc comfort (we're talking foam footbeds that don't leave your soles aching) but are way cuter. Promising review: "These sandals look cute and are super comfortable at the same time. I can wear these walking for hours and my feet don't hurt. I have three pairs and my sister has five pairs. I'm a nurse so I know a thing or two about our feet hurting. Get this now!" — Placeholder Get them from Amazon for $46.52+ (available in sizes 3–11 and 18 styles). 6. Barefoot running shoes if you want to try out the gorpcore look (basically a cooler, edgier version of the granola girl aesthetic) on your next adventure. They have flexible soles, a roomy toe box, and zero restrictive padding so your feet can move naturally. And just imagine these paired with flowy fabrics — very cute when prancing through a meadow in Switzerland. I used to be a diehard platform person until I tried barefoot shoes, and now I genuinely cannot go back. I've never felt so connected to the ground I walk on! Promising review: "I have worn minimalist barefoot shoes for the last five years as we traveled through Mexico and South America and I can truthfully say they are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. I'm 80-years-old and walking like I'm 40 years younger. I had so many foot problems before I switched to barefoot shoes. I suffered greatly with plantar fasciitis and hip pain for such a long time and all that pain disappeared after wearing these shoes for a short period of time. My only warning on these shoes would will definitely ruin you for ordinary shoes forever! Who doesn't want to be comfortable and pain free?" — DD Get them from Amazon for $42.99 (available in sizes 5.5–12 and in 30 colors). 7. Teva midform sandals that come in a wide array of colors and styles. They're built to handle all types of terrain and dry quickly, so they're a must-have for rainy hikes or trips to the lake. Annnd they look really cute with socks, so you can still wear 'em if the temps drop! FYI, aside from their style and comfort, Tevas are *known* for their durability — one reviewer said their first pair lasted for over 20 YEARS. This isn't your average sandal that falls apart after one season. Promising reviews: "These sandals are SO comfortable. I got them to wear on a trip to Hawaii, and they were the best thing I brought. Easy to walk in the sand, so commutable to walk on any terrain. You can wash them off if they get dirty. So cushy and soft. Velcro for easy walking and adjustments. Such a good sandal for a walking or beach trip. I can't wait to wear them this summer. They are so cute too!! The mid-height is the perfect height and can be dressed up or down. So cute with activewear or with a summer dress. Love!!" — natasha "My niece recommended Teva so I decided to give it a try, especially for an upcoming trip to the mountains. Yesterday, I was caught in a rainstorm and stepped into a stream of rainwater that was over my feet. My Tevas performed beautifully. They dried quickly, didn't slip in the water, and they also stayed perfectly on my feet. I like the adjustability of the straps in several places where you can fit it to your foot. I actually bought two pairs (different colors) of Tevas at the same time, and I am enjoying both of them! I highly recommend!" — J L Phillips Get them from Amazon for $46.95+ (available in sizes 5–14 and so many colors/patterns/styles). 8. Or some Skechers sport sandals for long days of sightseeing. Not only do they feel like walking on marshmallows, but their stylish look makes them easy to pair with everything from dresses to jeans — oh, and reviewers with wide feet love them! And they're machine washable! Promising reviews: "These are my second pair and I absolutely love them. I have walked theme parks for days, Florida in the heat, Caribbean islands, and cruise ships. They are comfortable, waterproof, dry quickly, maintain their shape, straps stay secure (even on rollercoasters) and great for the beach (sand dusts off easily). If you have a wide foot, invest in a pair of these. I also like how thick the bottoms are, which gives you extra support when walking over rocks." — BellaNV " I wore these for 10 straight hours with over six miles of walking right out of the box and had zero foot pain. I'm 61, and my feet are often achy. I used to wear thong sandals but can't stand anything between my toes anymore so decided to try these. Now, I want them in every color. They fit true to size and have great arch support. We had to walk down an extremely steep hill, and they had plenty of traction to keep me from slipping." — EGC Get them from Amazon for $49.13+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and 13 styles). 9. Platform Converse so you can get the classic Chuck Taylor look with MORE cushioning! You already know these can be styled a million different ways (people have been posting cute outfits in them since the dawn of the internet) and are durable enough to handle the wear and tear of traveling. BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Rachelle Yang says, "I had these bbs for three years but had to say goodbye to them because it was finally their time to go. 🥲 I first got these shoes because I have very weak ankles and needed shoes that would support them, but these did waaaay more than that. The platforms were a lot comfier than I thought they were going to be, and I wore these EVERYWHERE. From concerts to hikes to beaches, these bad boys really put in the work and held up through everything. I never had a moment when I felt uncomfy with these on, and besides all that, they're SO SO SO cute!!!" Promising review: "I've owned many pairs of Converse in my life, and these are the most comfortable I've ever worn. With the platform there's more cushion in the bottom, making them so comfy. They're absolutely adorable, and who doesn't want to be just a couple of inches taller? :) Now I just need them in black!" — Jennifer Kaul Get them from Amazon for $66+ (available in sizes 6–13 and in various styles/colors). 10. Some splurgeworthy Rothy's flats made from a stretchy knit material that you don't have to break in (thank you, magic shoe inventors 🙏), AND they're machine washable. Easy to wear, easy to clean — what more can you ask for? Plus, they'll easily fit in the fullest of suitcases, making them the perfect travel companion. Rothy's It's recommended to go half a size up if you have narrow feet and a full size up for wider feet in this particular style! BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes backs that up: "I have a pair of Rothy's flats, and though I usually wear an 8, I went with an 8.5, and they fit perfectly. Though I haven't had the chance to wear them a *ton* (because I WFH most days), I have commuted in them several times with no issues. They're super comfy and feel so lightweight and stretchy! I have them in the neutral Ecru color, but they come in a ton of gorgeous colors — if I were going into the office regularly, I'd be tempted to grab them in several shades. Psst — check out my colleagues' full Rothy's flats review for more deets!" Promising review:"I have lived with bunions for many years and have to be very careful with the cut of a shoe in that area of my foot. Rothy's felt like walking on a cloud the minute I put them on and that comfort has not stopped." — Jane C. Get them from Rothy's for $129 (available in sizes 5–13 and in 17 colors/patterns). Rothy's flats come in a bunch of different styles, and you can check them out here! 11. Or Vionic Mary Jane flats with removable cushioned insoles that provide arch support and adjustable straps to keep them from flying off your feet! These'll instantly turn jeans and a simple top into a stylish 'fit — perfect for that trip to Paris. Nordstrom Promising review: "These will be great with jeans when I don't want to wear sneakers. In terms of design, they do not disappoint, the fit is accurate, the leather is lovely and of course the Vionic insole is just soooo perfect. I might have to grab another color. I am intrigued by both the charcoal and the tan metallic!" — Lucysmom Get them from Nordstrom for $129.95 (available in sizes 5–13 and in five colors). 12. Espadrille platform sandals because usually shoes this cute come with aches and pains — but not these. And they have the seal of approval from reviewers with wide feet! Promising review:"I have had the brown color of these sandals for going on three years now. They are the most comfortable sandal ever. I've worn them all over on several vacations, all over Vegas. No blisters!! So cute and casual. Ordered white and will probably order the black! They are my favorite ever!!!" — Amazon Customer Get them from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and 29 color/style combinations). 13. Durable Columbia hiking boots with sturdy ankle support and high-traction, cushioned soles that'll keep you comfortable whether you're hiking or just walking through town. Reviewers swear these don't even have a break-in period, making them a great option for that last-minute outdoorsy trip where hiking and rough terrain are on the docket. It's recommended to go up a half size in these boots to accommodate thicker hiking socks. Promising review: "T hese shoes were perfect for winter hiking. They were warm and super comfortable hiking in. They gripped pretty well on ice compared to my partners, but still recommend spikes if hiking in icy conditions. The tongue can be a bit uncomfortable at first, but once broken in, you can't tell." — Marie Get them from Amazon for $49.09+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and 12 colors). You can find a version in men's sizes here. 14. Or Merrell hiking shoes that can pass for a casual sneaker, so they're especially perfect for trips where you're doing a mix of hiking and city strolling. Reviewers love that they don't need to be broken in, and they look great with flowy pants and skirts! Promising review: "These are my summer hiking shoes. I put over 500 miles on them so far, and they're still great. Still have great tread and don't slip at all. I like the shorter ones for summer because I burn up. They're water resistant, too. I have metatarsal pain in my right foot, and these are the best ones that I have found for my foot. Also, they have a huge toe box and a nice snug heel, so downhill is just fine. Love em!" — Courtney B Get them from Amazon for $89.99+ (available in sizes 5–13 and 25 colors). 15. Lightweight Tioseban sneakers you can easily slip on and off as you go through security — and when you are tiredly trying to make it to the complimentary hotel breakfast before it closes. The memory foam insole is so good, your feet will cry when it's time to take them off. Sizing up a half size if you have wide feet is recommended. Promising review:"I have worn these shoes on many trips. Bought these in red years ago and most recently traveled through two countries in them. Did a lot of walking. Even climbed up and down through all the steps in Petra, Jordan. They held well and still have a lot of use. And I also love the pop of red in my travel pics!" — Noor Get them from Amazon for $36.99+ (available in sizes 5–13, wide, and in 32 colors). 16. Dr. Scholl's slip-on sneakers reviewers have clocked miles in without experiencing any pain or blisters. They'll pair perfectly with all your travel 'fits, and one reviewer even wore them while walking on a VOLCANO, which is wild considering they are so dainty and cute! Promising reviews: "Travel tested and approved — LOVE!! My hairdresser friend recommended these since she's always on her feet. They were so reasonable so I ordered them for my South Africa honeymoon trip. They were INCREDIBLE!!! My feet never hurt and I walked a ton of miles in them. They also went with a ton of outfits, so I was very happy!!! I highly recommend!" — Leah Gwin Hoefling "These shoes were recommended as comfortable walking shoes. They absolutely are the best! I bought these shoes to have a stylish, casual shoe for a NYC/DC seven-day tour. I walked an average of 7–8 miles a day even in a downpour. Not a single blister or pain of any kind. If you are searching for stylish, casual, and comfortable, then these are it. Easy on and off, water-resistant, and coordinates with all outfits." — S. Lee Get it from Amazon for $50 (available in sizes 5–13, including wide sizes, and in 21 designs). 17. Huarache sandals to keep your feet cool and comfy as you explore cobblestone streets, walk on the beach, then eat at a ~very noice~ restaurant. Handcrafted from genuine leather, these shoes are designed to mold to your feet with each wear, becoming even more comfortable the longer you have them! Macarena Collection / Etsy Macarena Collection is a small California-based business. All of their shoes are handmade by Mexican artisans. Sizing note: These are only made in whole sizes, and the seller recommends sizing up if you wear a half size (so, for example, if you wear a 7.5, you should get a size 8). If you normally wear a whole size, just order that size! Promising review:"Quality is awesome, and I love the leather smell. Makes my whole closet smell good! Perfectly comfortable right out of the box. Wore them all day, no blisters! Color is pretty pale but it goes with everything." — esnotary Get them from Macarena Collection on Etsy for $46.49 (originally $61.99; available in sizes 5–10). 18.

Plus, their versatile, timeless look means you can style them for an early morning hike or a night out on the town — and they're built to last for years. Promising review: "I LOVE them! They are cute and stylish, but also keep my feet warm. They seem to be fairly resistant to the salt crud in parking lots and on sidewalks in the winter too. I like that they aren't too heavy and remain comfortable even with a lot of walking around or wearing them all day. Some boots get heavy and cumbersome, these do not!" — JPalmer Get them from Amazon for $180.82 (available in sizes 6–11 and in seven colors). 19.

I got the pink and gold and they are comfy and pretty. I cannot keep count of the total strangers on the street stopping me and saying how much they love my shoes and asking me where I got them!!! This price is amazing, and I truly can say I got bang for my buck! True to size, I'm an 8 and ordered the 8 and they fit perfectly." — Dora M.

Dansko clogs providing that essential arch support for all-day wear, whether you're exploring new cities or strolling through scenic spots. It's not every day you find a shoe you can walk miles in and wear out to a fancy restaurant! Promising review: "I really like these. I have two pairs, easy to dress up or down. When traveling they work with dresses, slacks, capris, even shorts. And my feet don't hurt!" — Dona Rose Get them from Amazon for $124.95 (available in sizes 4.5–13 and 13 colors). 23. The iconic fan-favorite Birkenstock Arizona sandals with a cork footbed that molds to your feet over time, giving you that perfect custom fit that's both supportive and cushy.

Several of my BuzzFeed Shopping colleagues *swear* by their Birks — you can read their thoughts here and here. Promising review:"Very pleased with purchase. This is my sixth pair of Birkenstocks. The stone color is great and complementary neutral. I 'broke them in' for five days around the house before traveling to NYC and comfortably walked 23 miles over 4 days without any foot/leg/back pain!" — C. Hoffman Get them from Amazon for $67.04+ (available in a wide range of men's and women's sizes, including narrow sizes, and 16 styles). 24. Or Cushionaire slides that you don't have to break in (sorry, Birkenstocks) — the cushioned insole and pliable cork footbed make them comfortable right out of the box! Promising review: "I bought these sandals before a three-week trip in Europe; I didn't want to pay for Birks but did want something in similar style with good arch support. I was a little skeptical about the low price, but gave them a they were the MOST comfortable sandals I've ever owned. I walked over 120 miles in them in three weeks on our trip and never once had foot pain. They broke in so quickly and were very supportive from the get-go — and still are! Highly recommend." — Han Lin Get them from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and 20 styles). 25. Stylish waterproof leather boots made to handle everything from icy trails to puddle-filled streets, keeping your feet dry and supported during your trip to Ireland. And as stylish as they are, these boots are tough enough to conquer that challenging mountain trail you've been eyeing! Amazon Promising review: "Absolutely love these boots! I needed a pair of sturdy hiking boots that looked cute, would last a long time, were water resistant, and would wipe off easily after a muddy day. I wore these for roughly two miles of hiking and maybe two miles of walking to break them in before wearing them for a nine-mile hike in the Appalachians. I was so impressed with how comfortable they were, just the right amount of grip, they were warm, and they kept my feet dry and my ankles supported. 10/10 I would buy these again and will definitely be buying a second pair once the first pair is worn out." — Emma Get it from Amazon for $91.63+ (available in sizes 5–11 and three colors). 26. Dr. Martens gladiator sandals that are the perfect combo of edgy and comfy, and you can tie the straps as securely as you like! Your feet will thank you (and look fabulous in your vacation pics). Promising review:"I bought these for walking long distances in my city. I wanted something to look cute but be comfortable. The leather is a bit stiff so I wore them for short distances a few times before wearing them out to do errands. I covered three miles in them yesterday then went to see the Red Hot Chili Peppers and danced for two hours, and my feet felt great! I'm a high heel girl, but if you need comfortable soft sandals, these are the ones. If you don't wanna [take] the time to break them in (I mean they ARE Docs after all), just buy some moleskin and attach it to the stiff bits. BTW, TONS of compliments, too." — Chris Quinlivan & Dion Serene Get them from Amazon for $50.61+ (available in sizes 5–11 and three colors). 27. Super cushy Hoka sneakers so your feet can feel pampered from the airport terminal all the way to that canyon you're determined to hike.

Or some Nortiv 8 walking shoes if you'd like that "walking on clouds" feeling without the splurge, thanks to their THICK, cushioned, shock-absorbent insole. Promising reviews: "I am obsessed with these shoes. They have a similar squishy, thick, and supportive sole like the expensive brand at a third of the price. Such a great value. Fit great, very accommodating to a wide foot/wide toe box. Excellent traction for wet surfaces and trails. Also, cute in a dad shoe way — love them!" — Mandy Williams "I have plantar fasciitis and work in a hospital. Believe me when I say this: I HAVE ZERO FOOT PAIN when I'm wearing these!" — Jennifer Emilien Get them from Amazon for $67.99 (available in sizes 6–11 and seven colors).

Your Dirty And Messy House Hates To See You Coming With These 34 Useful Products
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. Dust and clutter have been living in your home rent-free, and it's about time they get evicted. 1. A foaming garbage disposal cleaner capable of turning your food graveyard into a lemon-scented haven. I think we all can collectively agree that shoving our hand down the disposal to deep clean is NOT it. Just place the packet in the disposal, let it soak, and turn on your disposal! Easy peasy lemon squeezy! Amazon Promising review:"Saw on TikTok (don't judge) and automatically added to cart. So easy to use, takes probably a minute to fully bubble up and clean, and you're left with a clean sink! I use with other drain cleaning products, but would 100% recommend for weekly maintenance." — Jessica Hamilton Get a four-pack from Amazon for $8.08. 2. A compact cutlery organizer that surprisingly holds so much but takes up very little space because of the stacked compartment design. This is great for slimmer drawers and gives extra space for even more fun kitchen tools. Amazon, See this "life-changing" drawer organizer on TikTok! BTW, there's a version of this product for safely and compactly storing knives in a drawer too! Many reviewers ended up pairing both of these together. BuzzFeed Shopping editor Chelsea Stuart has used the cutlery organizer to make her kitchen feel more organized. She says: "Just got this, and it has freed up SO much space in our cutlery drawer that we can now store teas, small Tupperware, etc. vs. before it was just a mess of utensils." Promising review:"I had never seen this before I bought it, and holy crap it changed my life. So. Much. Room. There is so much room left in my drawer now that I moved stuff from another drawer and I have an entirely empty drawer in my kitchen now. Now only HALF the drawer is silverware and the other half is spatulas and cooking utensils. It is great. It also seems very sturdy. Highly recommend." — van31050 Get it from Amazon for $8.89. 3. The Baseboard Buddy because getting down on your hands and knees like Cinderella is not in your job title (even though cleaning baseboards is something you should do every now and then). The extendable arm gets in places high and low and is way better than pricey disposable dusters because the pads are reusable! The kit comes with one Baseboard Buddy and three reusable pads which can be used wet or dry. And when the microfiber pad is dirty, just rinse and reuse! Promising review: " Buy it NOW. Honestly, I had huge reservations for this thing. Yet another miracle cleaning tool that will break or bend or something. I was so wrong. It was easy to put together and I sprayed it with Mean Green and went to the baseboards. No more kneeling and no broken back. This thing is amazing. It is durable and the pad is super absorbent. I am so happy. I can't wait to do the rest of the house!" — artgirl Get it from Amazon for $24.99. 4. A set of bedsheet organizers so you don't have to tackle the avalanche of poorly folded sheets and duvet covers that look like they're about to engulf you if you grab them from the bottom. This organized system keeps your linen closet tidy and simplifies when it's time to change the bed. Promising review: "These are great for organizing extra sheet sets. Good quality and the zippers are sturdy. This helped me save some space in our linen cabinet, and keeps me from digging through several sets of sheets to find the right size." — BK Get a four-pack from Amazon for $29.98 (also available in eight colors and four pack sizes). 5. An EasyWring microfiber spin mop since your floors do, in fact, need to be mopped even though you'd like to think otherwise. The handle extends up to four feet, and the built-in mop wringer allows for hands-free wringing making mopping just a little bit less of a headache. Promising review: " After seeing a TikTok where a woman demonstrated this mop to clean her walls, and hearing my boss raving about it, I decided to click the Amazon button. Let me tell you, I HATE cleaning, I HATE mopping, but I LOVE for things to be clean. I was able to mop the entire house TWICE (Because it was that dirty. Please don't judge.) within an hour. A few days later I mopped the entire house again within 10 minutes because they weren't quite as dirty. On another positive note, my boys love the spinner and think it's a toy! So, every time I get the bucket out my 10-year-old and 4-year-old ask to mop the house because they think it's fun. MAJOR BONUS!" — Molly Get it from Amazon for $34.96. 6. A spice rack organizer so you can make sure your favorite chicken seasoning doesn't get lost in your narrow kitchen cabinets. If you're guilty of stacking as many spices as you possibly can and forgetting about half of them, then this is for you. Some reviewers mention using Command strips to secure this organizer, if you're in need of a rental-friendly option that doesn't involve drilling! Promising review:"Absolutely love this spice rack! It has the smoothest roll. It is so easy to install (just two screws in the back) and they hold!!! It keeps my spices organized and my cabinet neat! Very sturdy and well made. I bought a single and a two-tier!" — D.D. Get it from Amazon for $37.80 (available in 11 styles and three colors). 7. Bioclean, a hard water stain remover, to bring your glass doors, faucets, and shower heads back to their "what once was" state of clean. Now, with no more hard water stains or gross tile, you can go back to 🎶 singing in the shower 🎶 without a big ol' yikes in between the chorus and the verse. Promising review: "Wow. Don't waste your time with any other formulation that you found online. I've literally tried EVERYTHING! The soap / vinegar / baking soda, the expensive store bought 'hard water cleaners.' I've scrubbed for HOURS! But this…. This product is like magic. It's kind of like a paste that you can rub on with a microfiber towel and the hard water stains literally just RUB OFF. Like butter! Seriously the easiest option I have tried yet. I stopped within the first five minutes of cleaning to do this review because I'm in shock lol. Coming from someone who never writes reviews! Take that as a sign to buy this immediately. What a game changer, I'm mad I'm just now finding this stuff lol!" — _kayla_carter Get it from Amazon for $17.99. 8. A bamboo storage bag and food wrap organizer for storing plastic baggies, foil, plastic wrap, and wax paper all in one place instead of their bulky individual boxes. This comes with labels to identify your wraps and bags, and the dispenser cutters give a precise cut for all your food wrapping needs! This can also be mounted on the wall! Promising review: "I was looking for something like this for a long time. It fits in my kitchen drawer easily. Best of all, it frees up pantry space, and I don't have to look at a jumble of different boxes on the top shelf or be concerned with them falling. The sliders on the plastic, foil and wax paper holders cut cleanly. On the foil, you do have to make sure the foil is flat against the slider bar, and all I do is give it a quick press along the bar and it is ready to be cut. This hold a lot of bags and wraps in a small space. I absolutely love the Calmbee storage bag and foil organizer!" — Eileen Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in four colors). 9. A life-saving ChomChom roller to put other lint rollers to SHAME because this bad boy can be used over and over again. All you need to do is just roll, watch the fur disappear, and easily empty it all out for a super fast cleanup! Promising reviews: " We have two cats, one with long white hair who sheds a lot. I use this mostly on my furniture, comforter, and area rugs. It works wonderfully and is so easy to clean. Love that there is no sticky paper to throw away. A must-have for pet owners." — Steve Fadelli "I have a golden retriever and the shedding is out of control. My fabric sofa is constantly covered in hair and I finally decided to try this after reading an article about popular TikTok products. The reviews do not lie, this thing works magic!! I wish I had taken a before and after picture because the difference is noticeable. I watched the video tutorial before I tried it to ensure I was using it properly and everything he says is true, you do really have to put your arm to work with vigorous back and forth movement! However, I find it's a great arm workout and it works wonders." — Joanne Ertel Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in two colors). 10. An under-the-sink organizer because even your cleaning supplies deserve to be in a somewhat clean and organized state. The bottom shelf slides out for easy access, and the L-shaped design is great because it doesn't get in the way of those pesky pipes that take up so much space. Promising review: "I have purchased three sets of these under-cabinet shelves. They are great in the bathrooms. I put cleaning supplies on one side and personal items on the other. The bottom shelf pulls out so I can access things without having to kneel down on the tile floors. Everything stays nice and organized. Great quality — nice solid metal and super easy to put together. No tools needed. Would definitely recommend if you need to make your life easier and save wear and tear on your old knees…. ;)" — TeresaB Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (also available in a two-pack and in three colors). 11. Affresh dishwasher tablets for anyone who doesn't want to get on their hands and knees and stick their head in the dishwasher to clean it. These little tablets do the work for you. All you do is run it on a normal wash cycle and now you have a nice, fresh dishwasher. Promising review:"After using this product, I am happy to report that my $5 investment saved me over $500. I was ready to replace my dishwasher due to super cloudy glasses, residue, and dishes just not getting clean. Then, I became aware that the water softener was no longer doing its job so I had the rental company replace it. Dishwasher performance improved somewhat. I decided to do two more loads before deciding to purchase a new one. I tossed one of the tablets into the bottom of the full machine per the instructions and ran the regular cycle. I did not expect the results I got! The glassware that I thought was permanently etched and ruined came out like new. Same with cutlery. The difference is unbelievable." — Sheila Get a pack of six from Amazon for $8.99. 12. An unassuming broom organizer because you finally want to do something about that messy pile of brooms and dustpans in the corner of your closet. It's got five slots and six hooks and holds up to 38 pounds! Promising review:"Perfect! Exactly what I needed to organize my mop, broom, scoop, etc. Efficient and easy to use. A little hard to get my scoop into it but that's cause it's thicker than the rest of items. Love that there are hooks. Spray bottles and cleaning product bottles hang perfectly on there too." — Kavita Chandanie Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in two colors and a two-pack). 13. The Bissell Little Green that works ✨wonders✨ on your couches, carpets, and other upholstery items since it magically removes dirt, stubborn stains, and any other nasty spills that have worked their way into your life. Amazon, Promising review:"Faced with either replacing our dining room chairs or living with the daily reminder of how disgusting children (x3) can be, we decided to replace our chairs. Until we priced some new ones. Enter the Green Machine. This chair has never been cleaned (I know, we're gross). I sprayed the included magical solution, let sit 15 minutes for good measure, and voila. Sorcery. I read zero instructions, just plugged in, and went to town. I would recommend cleaning outside if your item is portable; it minimizes the spray on the floor. The dark grey liquid on the collecting side was evidence enough of the dirt and stain-removing powers. Don't second guess; this was <$100 when I purchased it, and while something with steam and heaters and all the gadgets, I am sure, is wonderful, bang for your buck on this one is a no-brainer. Definitely bought us another year or so before we pull the trigger on something new for the kids to ruin." — aih Get it from Amazon for $123.59+ (available in three styles). 14. An accordion-like pots and pan organizer to make the most of every inch you have in your lower kitchen cabinets. So when you bend all the way down to get that pan, it'll easily slide out and you won't have to do lots of rearranging. Amazon The length expands to 30", and each rod is 6.5" tall to accommodate taller items. Synthetic rubber bumpers protect your delicate surfaces. Promising review:"Finally, a solution to corral all of these freaking pot and pan lids! It expands perfectly to accommodate my 30" wide cabinet. Actually, it can go a little further than that, but it gets less stable when you exceed the maximum width. It also works great for smaller cabinets. I tried it out in a pull-out drawer that's approximately 24", and it serves its purpose well." — Nurse Bex Get it from Amazon for $32.99. 15. A robot vacuum because sometimes sweeping Roscoe's shedding fur, getting the under-the-bed dust, and picking up all that dirt that your kids trek in from the backyard just... sucks. Thankfully, this powerful vacuum literally ~sucks~ that all up and saves you from having to manually do it yourself. This is super slim so it can easily fit under your low furniture and it automatically returns to its charging station when it's running low on battery. Promising review:"I should have bought one of these years ago! It's saving me time and effort to clean other stuff around the house. I've been pleasantly surprised how 'Pete' can make it over thresholds that separate our kitchen from the living area and one in the hallway. LOVE how he goes around our kitchen chairs and table and really gets under there to pick up crumbs! My floors look cleaner than they ever have! Go Eufy!" — Natalie M Get it from Amazon for $139.99+ (available in three styles). 16. A beanbag cover so you can keep all of your kid's plushies in one place rather than have them spread out all across their room. It can hold up to 80 12" stuffed toys or five standard pillows. Best of all, it makes a comfy place for sitting! Promising review:"These are perfect for any kids' room! I was getting so tired of messy stuffed animals and blankets all over so it's nice to have them out of sight but still easily accessible. My 2-year-old loves to sit on hers and read books. She doesn't have a ton of stuffed animals so there is plenty of room to add to it for when her collection grows. I love the fun bright print and sturdiness — she drags it all over the ground but I don't worry about it tearing at all. Just what she needed in her room." — dd Get it from Amazon for $25.98+ (available in 26 colors and patterns and in three sizes). 17. A bottle of Wet & Forget cleaner destined to turn your shower and tub from grimy and dirty to spiffy and shiny. All you gotta do is spray, let it sit overnight, and rinse! Finally, now you can enjoy your own scrub-a-dub-dub time *without* having to scrub-a-dub-dub the hard-to-reach crevices on your hands and knees. Promising review: "I used this product as directed and got the promised results! I literally did not have to get down and scrub my tub at all. Scent was very subtle (purchased 'vanilla' option). I'm completely stunned with the fabulous results! Highly recommend!" — kMcav Get it from Amazon for $20.98 (available in two scents and two sizes). 18. A double-sided tea organizer because you probably need to have a better system of organizing your tea bags rather than letting half-empty boxes take up all the space in your pantry. This is super slim, and the bins are removable for easy refilling. YouCopia is a woman-owned small biz that makes ingenious home and kitchen storage solutions. Promising review:"Do I really need a tea bag organizer? That's what I was thinking when I ordered this. And when I took it out of the box. And when I filled the first little bag holder. But as the pile of empty boxes grew larger, I knew the answer was yes, I do need a tea bag organizer. I was using a whole shelf and a half of jumbled tea boxes that I had to sift through to look for a specific tea. In the end, I think this held about eight or nine boxes of tea bags (I crammed some of them). I am so happy that I got this!" — Sarah C. Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes). 19. A flexible drain snake for when it's finally time to tackle that clogged shower drain. This has small micro hooks that grab onto hair easily, and even though the results will make you want to gag, this so comes in handy for those rare deep cleaning sessions. This pack contains a reusable handle and five single-use heads you can just remove and dispose of after handling your clogged pipes. Promising review:"Wow. Best thing ever. Seriously. I have had tweezers and sticks and plumbers and chemicals trying to get my master sink to drain. The plumber even said I needed an entirely new faucet to get the drain plug part because they don't sell those separately. Well, I have two sinks, a tub, and a shower that all match, so that was not a valid solution. Doubt I can find the same model. So I bought this thing, stuffed it down, and pulled up hair and black muck. Did it about eight times quickly, ran the water, went right down the drain. Seriously. This is the best tool ever and the best $20 I have ever spent. Everyone with a sink needs this tool. Seriously." — juliejules Get a five-pack from Amazon for $19.99. 20. A hanger stacker because that pile of hangers is becoming a total eyesore in your closet. This will help organize them and prevent you from playing a game of "Barrel of Monkeys" every time you try to grab just ONE hanger. Promising review: "Working in retail for a million years, I know how amazing these can be in keeping your life less chaotic! I put off ordering for months, and I'm mad at myself that I did because these beat a box of hangers hands down! I ordered two: one for dress/shirt hangers and one for skirt/pant hangers. They arrived today, seem to be made of the same metal that I've used in retail stores, appear to be sturdy, and are super easy to assemble! The only thing I had to stop and think about is which side of the base should face up. It comes with all the hardware and tools for assembly. A great buy!" — KatieLee333 Get it from Amazon for $25.58. 21. A Cerama-Bryte cooktop cleaning kit so when you look at your glass stove top, you can smile at your reflection instead of roll your eyes at the leftover grease, dried-up pasta water, and other messes that come with cooking at home. It comes with a cleaning solution, cleaning pads, and a scraper tool! Promising review:"Love, Love, LOVE this stuff! Who else hates cleaning their stove like me?? It feels like every time I clean the stove, it just gets dirty again. Well I found THE BEST clean for your stove top. I applied this once after having oil and food caked onto my stove, and within seconds of using the cloth to clean it off, it was TOTALLY clean. Seriously, this stuff is incredible. It also comes with a little scraper which is perfect for getting those little nuggets of food off your stove. Buy this won't regret it!" — Meredith B Get the kit from Amazon for $13.98. 22. A set of customizable drawer organizers because we all have that one drawer where we just shove our stuff in and hope it closes. This set comes with 25 pieces and endless ways to organize! Finally, a junk drawer that will no longer be a ~junk~ drawer. Oh, and the non-slip grips at the bottom keep these from sliding around every time you open your drawer. Promising review:"Went wild organizing and cleaning my kitchen! These work so well for holding everything. I have a beautiful tea drawer, gathered all the meds together, and tackled the junk drawer! It all looks great and feels so good. The different sizes will work for almost anything you need to organize. The rubber 'feet' on the bottom keep the bins in place when the drawer is opened and closed. I think this was a great purchase for the price." — Paige Turner Get it from Amazon for $16.89+ (available in eight colors). 23. A three-part microfiber wand, which gets rid of the dust on the top AND bottom of not one... but TWO blinds at once. This comes with five microfiber cleaning towels and saves you from using up a whole roll of paper towels just for cleaning the blinds. Amazon Promising review:"I absolutely hate cleaning my blinds, and it was pretty obvious that I hardly ever clean them by how much dirt came off the first time I used this tool. I've only used it dry so far, but boy it sure does get the dust off of the blinds. It does still take a while to do it, even though you're doing multiple slats at a time, but it sure is a lot easier. I love that you can just throw them in the washing machine when you're done. Thumbs up!" — Dopey1200 Get a pack of one wand and five sleeves from Amazon for $6.99. 24. A water bottle organizer because there's no shame in buying a sixth emotional support water bottle in the span of three months, but there is the embarrassment of that messy cupboard that unleashes an avalanche of water bottles every time you open it. Cheers to using vertical cabinet space more effectively! Promising review: "Ready to use right out of the box. Now able to keep my water bottles organized instead of falling out of the dish drain I keep on the counter to dry them, and then reuse them. This allows me to store them when they dry instead of playing dish jenga when I try to pull one out! Great purchase!" — ashevillegirl Get the 12-bottle organizer from Amazon for $24.99 (available in four sizes). 25. An extendable fan cleaner that will get all the dust bunnies up on the blades in one fell swoop. This is so much easier than standing on a chair or ladder with paper towels, and it's even great for dusting higher surfaces like air vents or corners of your ceilings! Promising review: " Where has this wonderful duster been all my life? I purchased it after the recommendation of a friend. I wasn't sure how well it would work, but after the first time I used it, I knew I made a great decision. I used to climb on a ladder to reach and clean my fans and air vents. Now I can easily clean my 3 fans and all my vents in less than 5 minutes. I put it together the minute it arrived. The handle takes some effort to screw the sections together but after it was together, I found it surprisingly sturdy. Plus the length is great since I'm short. I can now effortlessly reach my fan blades and ceiling vents. This product is definitely worth the money." — Victoria Gaumer Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in 15 colors). 26. A set of airtight food containers to keep all your dry goods organized and let you know when you're running low on your fave cereal. These come in a variety of sizes and with chalkboard labels! Big subtweet to whoever decided that flour should be packaged in a non-resealable, easily punctured paper bag, SMH. Promising review: "These containers are amazing! They are very nice: heavy duty material, air tight, and they just look great and make things look so cohesive and organized! I love them! They can be used for so many things! Great addition to my pantry and cupboards!" — Jimi Get a 24-pack from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in two colors). 27. A fume-free oven cleaner meant to tackle the most hard-to-remove buildup from last week's dinner that you just wish cleaned itself up. No more wasting money on weaker cleaning products; this stuff is literally called Easy-Off because it easily gets all the gunk off with a simple spray and swipe. New oven, who dis? Promising review:"I HATE cleaning my oven and this is evident by the fact that I won't do it until it fills up with smoke when baking. I bought new appliances and I was meticulous about keeping the stove/oven clean by not using them. Well, when you're a mom, that kind of doesn't work, so I made sure to not have anything splash on the stove or in the oven when cooking and to immediately clean anything that got by me. That also only lasts so long when I work long hours, so I used to tell myself, "You'll clean it tomorrow". As you all know, that's code for someday. Weeks went by, and my stove needed cleaning, and I found the handy self-cleaning button. Let me tell you, that first time. I needed professional help the second time, so of course, I put that off until I couldn't. Got on Amazon and as I always do, I read the product description and instructions and then went straight to reviews on multiple self-proclaimed "best oven cleaners". This one was the one I decided to put my hard-earned money on, and it paid off! I sprayed everything the night before, and I was ready with my gloves and mask, but I didn't need them. There was no splash back when spraying and no overwhelming smell. Got up the next day, opened the oven, and 30 minutes later, it was brand new. I was so happy, and this is my go-to. I use it about once a month and do the self-clean in between. I've used it on the racks of my little toaster oven as well and the grime comes right off. I've included a before and after cause, I know pictures are worth a thousand words." — Sandra Stephens Get it from Amazon for $8.98. 28. A reusable pumice stone so you can easily scratch away at those yucky stains without leaving behind scratch marks in the bowl. Those regular plastic bristles are no match for this strong yet gentle cleaner that makes your porcelain throne look brand stinkin' new (minus the literal stink). Promising review:"When we bought our previously owned condo, all three of the toilets had a permanent dark ring. I must have tried at least six different cleaning products that claimed to eliminate rings. None worked. I was actually considering buying new toilets as the ring was embarrassing to me. A friend recommended the pumice toilet bowl ring remover, and I was prepared to be disappointed again. But it worked perfectly. The ring is gone on all three toilets, and it only took a few minutes per toilet. I don't know when I have ever been so totally satisfied with a product. It just saved me a whole lot of money, and I am no longer embarrassed by the appearance of my toilets." — lynn mcdonald Get it from Amazon for $9.90. 29. A jar of *THE* Pink Stuff — it'll work wonders to remove dirt, oil, grime, rust, and stains from pretty much any surface. You'll be surprised that the ingredient list doesn't just say "magic" since it brings your things (stoves, pans, sinks, etc.) back to life with little to no elbow grease required. Promising reviews: "I am speechless. I had burned on crud on the glass door inside of my oven. I literally took the product and put it on with a sponge, let it sit for 30 seconds, wiped it off with a hot watered paper towel, and it wiped clean! I regret not taking before and after pictures. I have tried everything under the sun and regret not trying this sooner. I was skeptical because I saw it on TikTok. BUY IT!!!!!! Can't wait to try it on the shower! [Best] stuff I've ever used!" — Courtney " This is one of those 'changed my life' products that you come across every once in a while. I have tried so many different things to clean my clear glass shower door and just end up wasting time, money, and effort. The reviews and price of this product sold me on it. I love the smell (very subtle) and I used it with a basic sponge on my shower door. It did take a little effort but not bad and yielded amazing results. I then got excited about the other possibilities and have used it on the inside of my oven door with similar results. It's great. You won't be disappointed." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $5.97. 31. A set of cleaning brush attachments you can attach to a drill for some serious scrubbin'. If you've ever broken a cleaning brush scrubbing with too much elbow grease, this is the thing for you. Your back will thank you, your bathroom surfaces will sparkle, and you will be so thankful cleaning took half the time it usually does. Promising review:"I've been eyeing these for a few months and finally caved... Man do I regret not picking them up as soon as I saw them! They work GREAT! We rent an apartment that has a 30+-year-old shower/tub. I've used everything from abrasive powders, gels that sit, to most recently the bathroom Magic Erasers and nothing really got the grime out. These WORK and they work fast. Ten minutes with my handy drill and the shower has never been cleaner. I love that I don't have to throw money out on cleaning products anymore and that I can be a little more environmentally friendly with no waste and no chemical cleaners! Just a little dish soap, baking soda, and a spin of the brush. If you're on the fence, just buy them!" — Becky Adie Get a set of three from Amazon for $18.95 (available in six color and stiffness levels). 32. A pack of duster sponges that might just be dust's worst enemy. All you gotta do is dampen it, wipe, and rinse! The ridged surface grabs all that grossness and it's reusable, which is way more eco-friendly than using wasteful paper towels. Promising reviews: "This product is amazing! It makes cleaning so much easier and takes way less time! I used to hate cleaning my baseboards, but this product has made cleaning it so easy that I actually don't mind doing it anymore! It is also great for blinds as well! Definitely worth it!" — Julia "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 set of four from Amazon for $9.99 (available in six color packs). 33. A length-adjustable pet hair broom to sweep up all that dog hair, human hair, and random dust that camouflages itself on your patterned rugs. But really, this works for any type of floor and will leave you stunned at how you and your pets aren't bald by now. Emma Lord / BuzzFeed, Want more info? Check out my coworker's FURemover Evrilholder broom review. You'll learn a thing or two AND enjoy some very satisfying hair removal photos! Promising review:" I saw this on TikTok and thought it was worth a shot. I have two dogs and a cat, and being one with a dust and dander allergy, I have to vacuum often, but the vacuum can't always get in deep enough. This actually works and I was shocked at how well it does. I brush the carpet a few times and vacuum it up and the carpet even looks better!! I highly recommend this to everyone — especially pet owners." — Theo Ackerman Get it from Amazon for $12.98. 34. An MVP-worthy pet urine stain-removing spray that'll revive your carpets and furniture into the stain-free beauties they once were. All you gotta do is spray, let it sit for 5–10 minutes, blot, and let it air dry! Yes, you love your fancy little pooch, but you don't love the number she does on your carpets. Amazon Rocco & Roxie Supply Company is a family-owned small business established in 2013 that specializes in pet odor eliminators, pet toys, pet snacks, and pet accessories. Promising review:"I don't know how I ever survived without this. There are tons of 'pet stain/odor remover' products out there, but this, by far, is the absolute best. I cringed paying the $20 for it when others are between $5–$10, but I have NO ISSUES paying now. I foster dogs, some puppies, some older, some not housebroken, and every room in my house is carpeted except the kitchen, which means I have lots of accidents. I spray enough to saturate if it's a lot of urine, let it soak for 10 minutes, then wipe it up with a hand towel. Then I put a larger towel on top of it if it's in a high-traffic area until it's completely dry. It's taken out every stain, and more importantly, the odor is gone! I will never stop buying this product. I recommend it to everyone who has dogs!" — Shelley Get it from Amazon for $23.92+ (available in two scents and two sizes).

43 Things That Must Have Been Designed By Geniuses
A flip top bottle attachment A hair-removing glove A shirt-folding board HuffPost may receive a share from purchases made via links on this page. Prices and availability are subject to change. Promising review: "No more wasting product. I love these so much I had to get the six-pack so I can use them around the house for everything. I love that once the bottle is done, you just clean this lid and put it on something else. I love that the bottles don't fall while the product is slowly dripping inside the bottle, and if you use the stoppers, it doesn't leak. The only thing is I wish it came with a lot more stoppers other than that. This is a must-have in your house." — Em $25 at Amazon AnaMaria Glavan / BuzzFeed Here's why BuzzFeed editor Chelsea Stuart loves this: "I recently bought this after seeing it in many a BuzzFeed post (thanks, shopping colleagues!) and it is so worth it. My cats shed like it is their freaking job and I just can't keep up with it. One of them loves their regular brush but I have to empty it every two seconds and the other is terrified at just the sight of it. With this, I can just pretend I'm going in for a normal ol' petting session and they enjoy it!" Promising review: "This glove is perfect for our one kitty who hates to be brushed. Our family recently added kitty number three, a big beautiful long-haired Maine Coon who despises being brushed or bathed. It was such a struggle as fine cat hair started taking over our life. Honestly, I did not think this grooming glove would work, but let me just say it is wonderful. Our kitty Nicki just loves the feeling it gives him, and we love the astounding amount of kitty hair that is now in the glove and not on every surface in our home. Thank you wonderful seller. We LOVE this glove." — Colleen5991 $8.99 at Amazon Promising review: "My first reaction? 'Why did I buy this?' Then I opened the box and wasn't too convinced about the way it looked, as some edges look like they would quickly snap with use. Then I gave it a try with a couple of shirts I had just washed, and next thing you know I simply had to do my entire drawer! Everything folds so pretty, neat, and easy. I still couldn't believe it, so I ended up organizing our bedsheets and towels. I am amazed at how much of a game changer this is. Must try! Am in love with how beautiful it left my clothes." — Jesus Antonio Vedia $16.99+ at Amazon Promising review: "Where has this been all my life? I love it. This is a lifesaver! I've been looking for something like this for years. I always forget 10 minutes later if I actually took my medicine or just put it down. I've tried so many different ways, making marks on the bottle, making stickers, and other pill containers. None ever work. And pill containers are so bulky when I only need one pill." — Niki $19.99 at Amazon 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. $5.97 at Amazon It works in just four easy steps you can simply incorporate into your shower routine: 1) Steam or soak for several minutes to soften skin and loosen stubborn buildup. 2) Dampen and wring out the mitt, then remove skin from direct water. 3) Use steady circular motions to exfoliate one section of your body at a time. Slowly increase pressure until desired level of exfoliation is achieved. 4) Finish with a post-exfoliation moisturizer to nourish and protect the new layer of skin. Promising review: "Right out of the box I could tell these mitts were going to be exactly what I needed. Excellent quality and easy to use! I've tried them twice already and my skin is now incredibly smooth! After I scrubbed my arm, I looked at the mitt and saw it was covered with dead skin cells. I'll be buying more of these as gifts for girlfriends (in a fun spa gift basket)!" — Danielle Gill $6.99 at Amazon Promising review: "I bought this because bugs were starting to get into the house and in order to fix what was wrong with the door we would have had to take the door off the hinges. We really wanted an easy fix since we will be putting in a new door come spring. My husband put this on, and it has worked great. Not only are the bugs staying out, but the extra noise and cold coming in are no longer a problem. I would definitely recommend this." — Rose E. Archambault $9.99+ at Amazon Promising reviews: "I love this knife. You couldn't design a better knife for peanut butter if you tried. I bought a less expensive one, but returned it because the design was poor. There's no substitution for this quality product. Spend a couple dollars more, and get the best." — Beck "You can use it for many things. It is strong, and can get things out of deep blenders, like a Vitamix. You could even use it to spread icing on a cake! Best of all, it is perfect for stirring those large nut butter containers you get from the warehouse stores." — Amazon customer $12.99 at Amazon Youthforia Youthforia is an Asian woman-owned small business established in 2020 that specializes in environmentally friendly, cruelty-free makeup made with at least 90% renewable ingredients. Plus, all of Youthforia's makeup is designed with ingredients that make it ok for your skin to sleep with it on! Promising review: "Dewy and glowy. I tried it over makeup and it appeared as a strong pink shade but settled to a flushed, glowy color. I had my little sister try it too because I wanted to see the color change again and it lasted a really long time on her. The texture was smooth and it was easy to rub in and blend out." — Summer $36 at Amazon Amazon Wad-Free is a small business established in 2020 after the founder Cyndi Bray self-taught computer-aided design to create the pads. Promising review: "THIS ACTUALLY WORKS!!!! I saw a TikTok about these and decided to order. Sheets balling all up in the washer and dryer has been a pet peeve of mine for forever. I was super skeptical of these, but I tried it, and it works as advertised! It's a little on the expensive side IMO, and that's kinda holding me back from purchasing a second set, but they really do work." — StrangerThings $19.99 at Amazon Amazon Promising review: "Must-have for toddlers and small children! LOVE this! My 1- and 3-year-old love washing their hands now and my back gets a nice break. Adding the faucet extenders and a stepstool to our bed time/morning routine has been a godsend. Great bargain for the price." — TeaBea21 $11.49 at Amazon Promising review: "The hooks are comfortable and solve the problem of the earbuds falling out over and over again. An unexpected benefit is that the Pods can sit gently on the ear; no need to shove them inside to secure them. I can barely feel the Pods or the hooks. Glad I found these… They solve all problems. And I can wear my glasses while wearing them. Great price too." — TutorMaven $10.99 at Amazon Rocco & Roxie Supply Company is a family-owned small business established in 2013 that specializes in pet odor eliminators, pet toys, pet snacks, and pet accessories. Promising review: "I don't know how I ever survived without this. There's tons of 'pet stain/odor remover' products out there, but this by far is the absolute best.

I will never stop buying this product. I recommend it to everyone who has dogs!" — Shelley $19.97 at Amazon It has over 9,550 5-star ratings! Promising review: "I really liked this product because it gave me significant results in just a few days. I have tried other whitening products but I definitely think this one is my favorite because it's not only easy to use but also works very well. There is also no weird aftertaste, and all I do is keep my mouth open wide for around 30 seconds. The whitening capabilities were also great, and I know this because my teeth were stained before but now they are not. Lastly, these pens were very easy to use because all you have to do is twist the dial at the bottom of the pen clockwise, and product comes out. So overall I would rate this pen a 10/10 and I am definitely planning on buying more in the future." — Roy Joseph $19.99 at Amazon Amazon Promising review: "Works as described! It was practically right on, and I will not travel without it when I have the possibility of checking a bag in. I just slip this into my carry-on or tote. No more wondering and guessing how much my bag weighs! It's small and feels pretty sturdy. I like how it's a strap with a hook versus the others that just have a hook. I also like that you can change the unit measurement no matter where you're traveling to. Bonus: It even tells you the temperature." — CarinnMay $10.99 at Amazon Promising review: "If I could give this product six stars, I would. My husband and I use it almost every day. We have three furry dogs and six fluffy cats, which makes for A LOT of hair. We were using a lint roller before we bought our ChomChom Roller. The lint roller didn't work very well and had to be replaced. We have had our ChomChom Roller for months and it still works just as well as it did when we first got it. We can actually invite our friends over now without worrying about all the pet hair." — Morgan Willis $29.99 at Amazon Promising review: "My family drove from Wisconsin to Washington with our yellow Lab. I didn't think my van would ever be the same again. I bought this tool and was super skeptical, but I was desperate. THIS TOOL LEFT ME SPEECHLESS!!!! After finishing (it did take a bit of time; the tool is small), my floors and seats of my van look BRAND-NEW!!! I would pay triple the amount I paid for this tool. I've never seen anything like it! We own a pretty heavy duty shop vacuum, and it didn't even scratch the surface. We also tried every type of pet/lint roller we could find, and nothing came tool will blow your mind! After cleaning out our van, I immediately messaged all friends and family with pets (yes, it really is that good!). Don't waste any more time or money on other products. This simple tool will do a better job than you could ever imagine! A MUST-own for any pet owner!" — Amazon customer $14.95 at Amazon Amazon Made with a bamboo handle and powder-coated steel, it uses a simple lever system to made weeding easy. Promising review: "Oh my god, I friggin' love this tool. I bought this on a whim given 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 $39.99 at Amazon This is designed to work on all hair types, with reviewers with 2b to 4c curls mentioning it worked for them! Promising review: "Holy moly. This stuff is AH-mazing. To be free of bad stuff, smell amazing, leave my hair SMOOTH and SOFT (did I emphasize that enough), and leave my hair drying quicker with it looking near perfect. Well, folks, what else is there to say? Buy it. Don't think about it. Just do it. This coming from a super-picky hair girl!" — Aubsmommmy $7.44 at Amazon Amazon Promising review: "As a flight attendant for a major airline I have heard from passengers how much they like this pillow. So I ordered it...I LOVE IT. I lost my U-shaped memory foam pillow recently so I thought I would give this a try. It's smaller than a U-shape pillow and easy to pack up. Lots of fun colors to match your outfits. But most of all it works. It's cheap enough to give it a just do it." — Franny Ciera Velarde, an editor here at BuzzFeed, also loves this! She says: "I've used this for the past few years and swear by it! Before this, I always found traditional neck pillows uncomfortable and would end up ditching them halfway through the flight and getting frustrated. The Trtl pillow is adjustable — you wrap the pillow around your neck and secure it with Velcro, and if you find it's too loose, just make it a bit tighter! I've truly never slept better on a plane than with this pillow." $59.99 at Amazon Promising review: "I'm a flight attendant and I travel A LOT! This is a game changer! Folds up super small in the cute bag they provide and really makes a difference when on those long flights. The people in front of me had no idea I was using it. Thanks for the great product!!!" — sarah rubin $21.99 at Amazon Amazon It comes with the brush spinner, charging station, eight rubber collars that securely connect the makeup brush to the spinner, a glass bowl, and a splash guard ring. Promising review: "I use my makeup brushes daily, and they get filthy. I've used other cleaners and this product wins hands down. The wand and the cleaner itself takes all the hard work and does it for you, not to mention the brushes dry in seconds. This is the cleanest my brushes have ever been. Highly recommend." — Valerie $20.99 at Amazon Promising review: "Best $9 ever spent for safety. Absolutely perfect. I have the Munchkin ducky bath mat for my daughter, and now that she's 2 she flops around in the tub like a fish! I'm literally just waiting every time I bathe her for her to smash her head on the faucet. This thing fit absolutely perfect. I'm not really sure why people said it is easy to take off — I can barely get it off or put it on for that matter. Had to push and slide with all my might to get it fully onto the faucet, which is a good thing because now I know she can't just rip it off!! The water runs normal; it doesn't spray everywhere. I was worried about it blocking the opening, and it's absolutely perfect to lift up the shower thing. I think this is definitely worth it; it's one of the cheapest on the market. I have a normal faucet that comes in like 90% of tubs, if you have a fancy one that might be wide, this doesn't work." — Kayla Nuttall $10.49 at Amazon Emma Lord/BuzzFeed Heads up that this shouldn't be a replacement for actual flossing! Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS, that specializes in antimicrobial toothbrushes designed to get deeper cleans even patients with "great" dental hygiene might miss with traditional brush and floss routines. Here's why BuzzFeed writer Emma Lord loves this toothbrush: I personally bought this a few months ago and love it! I use an electric toothbrush usually, but I feel like I'm getting a much more satisfying clean from these?? Especially because I tend to get yellow stains between my teeth no matter how much I floss, and these bristles seem to actually target that a lot more effectively. I've switched to using this in the morning and the electric one at night and definitely see a difference in that area in particular. Promising review: "This was another one of my TikTok purchases! I was skeptical but my kids hate flossing their teeth so thought this might help in between making them floss. They work amazing! My kids said they could see and feel a different on the first use and I agree! They are definitely with a try! I would suggest not pushing too hard, those tiny bristles really get in there and if you push too hard you might be sore like I was. It felt like after going to a dental cleaning." — Amy N. $9.90 at Amazon Promising review: "This stuff is amazing! I had a horrible gray ring in the bottom of my shower that was impossible to remove. I had tried the Dawn dish soap method (with a lot of scrubbing) and had even used toilet bowl cleaner to try to remove the soap scum. My next step was to tear out and replace the shower pan and tile. I figured this was my last chance. I ordered the Wet & Forget spray and really coated the shower walls and floor pan and walked away. I CANNOT begin to tell you how happy I was to rinse down the walls sometime later and watch all that crud roll right down the drain!! This is the best product I have ever used in my life!! Works great and no toxic fumes!!" — Amazon customer $20.52 at Amazon Promising review: "I saw one of these in action at a friend's house like five years ago and thought it was just a made up memory, because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems when I saw a TikTok about it, I immediately went to Amazon and bought it. Literally this was the BEST decision of my life. I cannot believe still how amazing this thing is! It makes the creamiest, best-tasting fruit ice cream ever. It's easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." — Amazon customer $39.48+ at Amazon Promising reviews: "These things are amazing!! My Explorer has an abyss under the seat. If anything drops, it's gone forever! These stay in place way better than expected. I won't go without them ever!" — Kaci A. "I have to admit, my expectations weren't very high. Little did I realize it would become one of my most favorite gadgets ever! I don't know if I realized just how many things went missing in my seat gap. It has really saved a lot of things from disappearing into that black hole. It was easy enough to fit into my car, and it's soft! It's just like an extension of my seat, except it fits every curve of my seat. There really isn't another product that compares to this. That's why I gave it 5 stars." — Tessa Forbes $24.99 at Amazon You'll get one lip plumper and one minty sleeping mask for your lips. Promising review: "I loved this stuff, it was magic. The evening moisturizer was fabulous. It is the first plumper that actually works for me. Will be buying more for gifts!!!!!" — Alexandra "I discovered this product from TikTok and I had to give it a try. I tried the day lip plumper and within a few seconds, there was a subtle tingling/burning that lasted for a few minutes but as it occurred, the plumping started to happen! It made a noticeable difference and made my lips look like I had filler! I'm obsessed!! — Amazon customer $12.99 at Amazon Amazon Promising review: "Did y'all know they made these?!? Okay, I was moving some furniture around in the guest room and my beautiful bride just wasn't happy with how far the dresser stood out from the wall because of the TV plug. She said there has to be some way to fix that in this day and time. Know what? She was right! I did some searching on the old Internet and found these. I put it on the outlet behind the dresser and shoved it into place. Just so y'all know, the wall plug is indeed flatter'n a bug in a windscreen, and it's designed to cover the whole plug when you use it. Works great!" — James P. $23.95 at Amazon Fullstar is a small business established in 2017 that specializes in kitchen gadgets. Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action. Promising review: "Surprisingly, this is a wonderful, sturdy kitchen tool. I bought it to use with onions but it works wonderfully with just about any veggie and fruit. My family loves chili, soups and stews this time of year. This cut the job of preparing to less than a third. It works on just about any veggie but beware the size. If you are cutting a really hard veggie, use smaller pieces for the machine. I would buy it again. It has actually taken the place of my much more expensive food processor. I wish I could return the much more expensive food processor, this does everything I wanted a food processor for." — E. M. Brooks $29.99 at Amazon The kit comes with one Baseboard Buddy and three reusable pads which can be used wet or dry. Promising review: "Buy it NOW. Honestly, I had huge reservations for this thing. Yet another miracle cleaning tool that will break or bend or something. I was so wrong. It was easy to put together and I sprayed it with Mean Green and went to the baseboards. No more kneeling and no broken back. This thing is amazing. It is durable and the pad is super absorbent. I am so happy. I can't wait to do the rest of the house!" — artgirl $24.99 at Amazon Elizabeth Lilly / BuzzFeed Here's why BuzzFeed editor Elizabeth Lilly loves these: "I, an adult woman, cannot remember the last time I bought a box of tissues for my home (though I have several purse packs?!). It may have been when I most recently had a sinus infection, which I guess was two-plus years ago. But now that I'm playing house as a grown-ass person in an apartment to myself, I'm trying to be responsible. So obviously buying this whimsical tissue box cover we've featured in a million BuzzFeed shopping posts is peak adulting. Perhaps the reason I've been so bad at keeping around a box of tissues is because tissues just of ugly out in the open. But not with this lil' cover! Now it's a design element that I'll hopefully remember to keep full. For now, it's filled with a square box of tissues I unearthed from my old apartment's closet while packing; it's presently neatly housed inside the tissue box cover, providing the 'smoke' for the tiny chimney. The only downside to committing to this box is that I'll have to buy square-shaped tissue boxes only now. But I can live with that. And with my not-snotty nose." $6.70 at Amazon Promising reviews: "Ever since I purchased my wireless Bose earbuds, I always hated having to use another set when I was on an airplane with the seat-back entertainment system. I tried many different models to connect the system to my Bluetooth headsets until I came across this one, and it is amazing! It seamlessly connects to my headset, very clear and reliable audio, and it takes the stress away from having to carry multiple headsets! Thank you!!!" — Ryan Malloy "I fly a lot, and bought this due to disliking corded headphones, as either the cable line breaks during flight, and/or gets tangled up. I just recently flew four times last week and used them for the in-flight entertainment, and did not have one issue. I also use these in the gym while connected to my iPhone for music. And I plan to use them on my PC at work for meetings." — Marky $54.99 at Amazon Promising review: "This is the tool I never knew I needed. It may seem like a silly thing to spend money on when you can clean your brush out by hand but this gets so much more out of the brush! It's easy and rather enjoyable. Who wants to brush their nice clean hair with a brush full of dirty oily hair and dust. When you really think about it makes you want to throw out all your old brushes. I will be buying these as gifts for all my girlfriends." — emmaline $11.95 at Amazon Amazon Promising review: "A must-have. As a mom of two, ages 2 and 5, who HATE crust, I have found that this is a lifesaver! It saves so much money to buy these instead of Uncrustables." — Baleigh W $15.96 at Amazon Amazon Promising review: "Best nail clipper I've ever owned. All my life I've had stainless-steel nail clippers that slip from my fingers whenever I have to cut my nails, which bends the nail and adds pressure onto my nail bed. With these clippers, the groove lets my thumb sit comfortably. It cuts very well, and there's no need to put too much pressure when cutting a tough nail. The nail catcher is a good bonus. It prevents your nail debris from flying all over the place so you don't need to hover over the trash can. I use the built-in nail file to shape those sharp edges and it does the job very well. It eliminates the use of switching over to an individual nail file. I also like the little case that it comes in. It keeps me from losing my nail clippers." — Jasmine $13.99 at Amazon Promising review: "We love this lounge chair!!! The price was fabulous!! (And just a note... If you take care of your things — i.e. cover up the swing with a tarp and bring the cushions in when not using it — It will stay like new. Sun and rain can age anything! Easy-peasy!!) This lounge swing is so comfortable, and made very well!! And it only took my hubby and I only 25 to 30 minutes to put together. Take my word for it... you are not going to find a nicer lounge swing at this price!!" — Marash $219.99 at Amazon The mister will cool the surrounding area by 20 degrees, and it comes with an interchangeable flower-shaped misting head for a fun, whimsy detail. Promising review: "Works exactly how I want it to. Provides a fine, cool mist on the patio, allowing us to enjoy the backyard until sunset without breaking a sweat. Easy to set up. It was out of the box and cooling us off within minutes." — Debra L. Kusek $30.89 at Amazon This tool is double sided, so you can choose the thickness of your wing, and comes with two stamp pens — one for each eye! Promising review: "You need this stamp! I have never in my life been able to draw a wing properly. Ever. I kept seeing this advertised everywhere and thought, what the heck. Super easy to use, you don't need a lot of practice. I love that it's highly pigmented as well. I originally wanted the medium (classic) size but it's on backorder. I opted for the 8-mm mini size instead, and I'm glad I did. I think the size is appropriate for the shape and size of my eye. All in all, great purchase!!!" — SaraPo $14.97+ at Amazon Need a drill? Here's one! Promising review: "I bought the yellow and use it regularly for cleaning shower tile, removing hard-water stains from glass (with Lime-A-Way) and even for my oven top. For the price you can't beat it. They are good quality and the different sizes are convenient for different jobs. Gonna get a red set next for the tougher jobs!" — Emir D Hayric $18.95 at Amazon Elizabeth Lilly / BuzzFeed Here's why BuzzFeed shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly loves this: "That's me pumping my signature perfume into one of these travel atomizers I've been using for about a year. As the reviewer down below mentions, it's great to just throw in your purse on the reg for a fragrance re-up throughout the day. As you can see, it's about the size of my thumb and therefore takes up very little room. Plus! It's smaller than most rollerball travel fragrances you can pick up. This first one is working so well, that I just have the other three in storage. But if this one bites the dust this summer during travels, I'll be OK about digging into my stores to use one of the remaining at this price point." Promising review: "I bought these due to traveling a lot for work and needing to cut down on the size of things in my carry-on bag for flying. I can bring four different perfumes now instead of one big one. They're super easy to fill, haven't leaked so far but I keep them in a sandwich baggie while traveling just in case. I would 100% buy them again." — Emily $8.99 at Amazon See it in action on TikTok here. it has over 6,650 5-star ratings! Promising review: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, and it smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like myself." — LuckLocust $12.50 at Amazon Amazon BTW — Lauri did invest in this small, woman-owned biz! You can simply replace the insert ($10.99 for a two-pack) every couple of months! Promising reviews: "We purchased these for our son's soccer cleats that smelled like cat pee and a dead buffalo that has been eaten, puked up and eaten again and then that animal died and a buzzard ate it and then pooped it WERE HORRIBLE!!! The ninja ShoeStix's worked GREAT!!! WILL BE BUYING MORE for our daughters dance shoes!!!" — Matthew Parker "These ShoeStix have been amazing. I didn't think anything could help with the awful cat urine like smell emanating from my son's soccer cleats, but these inserts have done the trick. Now if you put your nose in the shoe, yes, it will still still smell pretty bad. But they no longer make the entire house smell like cleats and I can now leave the shoes in the house or in the car and not feel the urge to puke. We also use them for my daughter's volleyball shoes and kneepads. If you've ever experienced the stench that exists once a volleyball player removes the kneepads, then you know the pain I experience multiple times a week. Just put the ShoeStix inside the kneepads and put them inside a closed plastic bag and let the Stix do their magic. Definitely worth the money." — K Terry $29.99 at Amazon 43 Dresses That'll Let Your Legs Breathe After A Long Winter Of Tights And Pants Fitness Experts Say These 5 Items Are Essential For Your Home Gym Experts Recommend The Best Online Resources For Affordable, Good-Looking Outdoor Furniture
