34 Products TikTokers Confirm Are For Sure Worth The Splurge
1. A padded 3-in-1 reclining beach chair designed with five adjustable chair positions and three footrest positions, a cup holder, a zippered side pocket, *and* a "face cavity" so you can lay flat on your stomach — now you can read a book or scroll through TikTok while you get your tan on! Amazon Bonus — it's less than ten pounds and has backpack carrying straps for easy carrying! Promising reviews:"Oh, I actually saw this on TikTok and went directly to Amazon to check it out. The price is a little high, but I still think it's a really great beach chair. I purchased this for my sister-in-law, who absolutely loves the beach. She loves loves loves it! Arrived as stated, and in great condition." — Dianah "I have put off purchasing a really good beach chair! This year I decided to just do it, and I could not have been happier!! When I took it to the beach, that's all I could talk about! I felt like I was in a recliner! Perfect height, very comfortable, easy to get out and put away, and soo pretty!! LOVE IT!" — Danielle Atwell Get it from Amazon for $129.99+ (available in 10 styles). 2. An undetectable mouse jiggler for those who work from home and get the sudden urge to dash out to run an errand or walk the dog. (Priorities, right?) This helpful gadget lets you stay "active" on Gchat, Teams, or Slack in the meantime! Promising review:"Like everyone else, I stumbled upon this product because of a TikTok I saw. Setup was extremely easy, and I'm pleased to say that my Teams green light is on all the time now. Workers of the world, unite." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in four styles). 3. Brazilian Bum Bum Cream if you're looking to tighten and soften your skin and get your legs ready for all those shorts, skirts, and dresses you're about to whip out. But TBH, the scent alone is what's been getting reviewers obsessed. 😍 Promising review:"Like so many, I was brainwashed by TikTok into buying this rather expensive I bought one for my mom and one for my sister and five more for myself as they became harder to find. My favorite thing about it is the smell. Lightly tropical/coconutty but nothing overwhelming. Every time I wear it people say, 'What are you WEARING?' like I have some amazing perfume on. Besides that, it really is a great moisturizer. I'm not usually a sucker for marketing but this was so worth it." — Kristen Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in three sizes). 4. A quick-drying stone bath mat, which is just what you need if you're tired of lugging your current bath mat into the washing machine every few weeks because of how mildewy it gets. This'll dry super quickly — and I mean QUICKLY — so that it goes from sopping wet to dry in just seconds. It's also perfect for using as a mat for your pet's water bowls! Promising review: "I actually saw this type of bathmat on TikTok and decided to look them up. I ordered the gray one and was extremely impressed with it. I've already recommended it to coworkers. It's very absorbent and quickly dries up the water after a showe r." — DirectorPrime Get it from Amazon for $45.99 (available in nine colors). 5. A portable Chill-O-Matic Instant Beverage Cooler that any cold beverage connoisseur will fall in love with. This nifty little gadget can take a 12-ounce can of seltzer, soda, or beer at room temperature and make it ice cold in just *one* minute. So when it comes time for a last-minute beach day (or if your fridge refuses to chill your drinks to your standards), this'll be here to save the day. Amazon Chill-O-Matic is a small business that specializes in beverage accessories. Check out a TikTok of the Chill-O-Matic in action. Promising review: "I was so afraid of wasting money. But I didn't. I love my sodas cold. But sometimes there's not a cold one available, and waiting 30-40 min for one to get cold in the freezer is not always ideal. This will get your room temp can to fridge cold in 90 seconds. I let it run double that to get almost freezer cold. I wish it had a power cord. But I do appreciate the portability that the batteries provide. I can't wait to try it out on vacationing, as access to cold sodas isn't always available. All you need is a literally a little bit of ice." — G. Massey Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two colors). 6. A wireless charger bedside lamp with a built-in speaker that makes it everything you could need as you wind down for bed. Whether you want to listen to some tunes or catch up on your latest show from the comfort of your bed, this little gadget's got your back. Check out a TikTok of the bedside lamp in action. Promising review: "I wasn't expecting much from this product based on the price. A night light at best. I was pleasantly surprised to find it was a light with three different settings. I love that feature. The Bluetooth speaker has amazing sound quality for my bedroom and can be heard all through the master bathroom and both master closets. How cool is that?! It also has a phone charger that works. Just hook your phone cord into the lamp and place your phone on the charger pad. I highly recommend this item!!" — Bunny Honey Get it from Amazon for $36.99+ (available in three colors). 7. A Paula's Choice liquid exfoliant, which has salicylic acid that penetrates your pores to help catch breakouts before they reach the surface. And bonus! The green tea leaf extract quickly calms redness and soothes skin sensitivity. Promising review: "I had seen several reviews on TikTok about this product, and I decided to try it for myself and see how good it was, as they said. I had pores and pimples around my cheeks (I have ever since I was a teenager), I've tried different products but none worked as well as this one. Every night before going to bed, I apply it to my face along with a moisturizer (I prefer to do it at night so it can stay on the longest). And wow, I am not kidding, the next day you can already see how the redness is fading away and any recent pimples start to get smaller, as well as my pores on my cheek area! I had not seen a difference that fast with other popular products, but this one did. I highly recommend, the price is worth it. It really does improve your skin, and it looks healthier and glowing. In my opinion 10/10 :)." — Mariel Garza Get it from Amazon for $14+ (available in three sizes). 8. A Yonanas fruit soft-serve maker that'll satisfy any and every ice cream craving since it lets you create a concoction *specifically* to your liking! It transforms any frozen fruit into an ice cream or sorbet texture so you can enjoy a chilly treat right from the comfort of your own home. 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 wild. But 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! I t makes the creamiest, best-tasting fruit ice cream ever. It's easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." — DMCKAY Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in five colors). 9. A belted portable cordless vibrating heating pad here to relieve you of cramps and pains that can come with that *particular* monthly visitor (don't you just love having a uterus? 🫠). You can also use it just to keep you warm and cozy on chillier days — it's even got three massage modes! Check out a TikTok of the heating pad in action. Reviewers note you should definitely wear it *over* your clothes! Promising review: "Oh my god. This might be the best thing I have ever bought. It gets so incredibly warm. You do need to wear it over clothes to prevent burns, but as someone who never finds any heat pack warm enough, the lowest setting is exceptionally hot. As someone who has really bad menstrual cramps and chronic constipation, this little belt does it all. The heat is so soothing and adjustable, and it heats up so fast. The vibration is my favorite part. It helps so much with trapped gas and bloating pains. It breaks up all the little bubbles and can even move things along if you're having a hard time using the bathroom. The various patterns and heat combinations allow this to be truly customizable to however you feel at the time, and it's fantastic. Absolutely worth every cent." — Chloe Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in 11 colors). 10. A set of affordable, highly popular wireless Bluetooth earbuds that might even give your AirPods a run for their money. They come with several silicone ear pads so that they mold perfectly to your ear, and they're fully waterproof! So, if you want to have a live concert in the shower without disturbing your roomies, by all means. 😌 These come with a wireless charging case that provides up to 14 hours of charge (with the earbuds able to play for four-plus hours with each full charge). Promising review:"Best decision! These are the greatest headphones ever! I saw them on TikTok months ago and added them to my wishlist. I got a new phone that doesn't have the headphone port, so I decided it was time to finally buy them. They are amazing, and I probably won't ever take them out of my ears! 😂" — Kate Arnold Get it from Amazon $24.99+ (available in five colors). 11. A super effective set of Crest 3D Whitestrips so you can get pearly whites without spending too much green. They mold to your teeth with their no-slip design to dramatically lift even years-old stains. Their widely-loved bleaching formula works overtime, so you can see results FAST. Promising review:"Someone on TikTok recommended it, and I was like, why not? So far, I've used 11 treatments and have already seen a difference. With the first couple of strips, I started to see white streaks on the top teeth, but then it went away as I kept using them. Honestly, I recommend them. So easy to use and I cannot wait to continue my teeth whitening journey!" — Barbara Get a 22-pack from Amazon for $44.95. 12. A touchless paper towel dispenser — we must be in the year 3000, because this gadget is about to be the most futuristic piece in your kitchen. This little helper will let you reach for a paper towel with wet or dirty hands without making a mess. Check out a TikTok of the touchless paper towel dispenser in action. Bonus: if you don't grab the paper towel, it sucks it back up for safekeeping! Promising review: "Do we need it? No. But it might be my favorite unnecessary gadget purchase of all time. It leaves our countertops uncluttered, the no-touch sensor lets me grab a paper towel with dirty hands, and I feel like we use fewer paper towels overall. It's easy to install, easy to program, and easy to replace the roll." — Mlc Get it from Amazon for $82.99 (available in three colors). 13. A set of rainbow wineglasses because you'll want to keep them on display when you're not using them to drink your favorite pinot noir. Reviewers rave about how beautifully this set doubles as home decor! Amazon Check out a TikTok of the rainbow wine glasses in action. The Wine Savant is a New York-based small business established in 2017 that specializes in unique, quality drinkware and accessories. Promising review: "Love these! Wasn't ready to splurge on Estelle stemmed glasses, so I got these instead. I've run them through the dishwasher once so far, and they held up fine. Glass is thin near the top, which I love in a wineglass. I would recommend!" — Tricia Get a set of six from Amazon for $49.95 (available in 12 styles). 14. An EasyWring microfiber spin mop that is so easy to use, it would've probably let Cinderella get to the ball on time. It has a hands-free wringing system and is made to reach into those ~extra~ dusty corners. Who knows if we'll ever not complain about having to mop, but at least this brilliant invention will give you clean floors that make it look like you totally love it. O-Cedar/YouTube / Via Promising review: "I had had it with my broken basic mop and bucket. I tried to just get a Dollar Store Swiffer to get us by, but that wasn't cutting it at all. With three boys and a dog who makes his rounds on all the furniture and every exposed corner, I had to do something. 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 (available in four styles). 15. A wildly popular Olaplex repairing treatment, which is the OG when it comes to products that help strengthen your locks. It features a highly concentrated formula designed to help rebuild breakage, reduce split ends, and prevent future damage. Plus, reviewers rave about the fast results! Unlike other hair dryers, this one can be held closer to the roots and scalp for a higher volume and lift, and helps you curl hair at the end while it dries. It comes with three heat settings and is designed to work on all hair textures — reviewers with 2a–4c hair mentioned it working for them, and especially noted that it helps cut down on drying time! Promising review: "My hair has so much breakage from coloring it so much over the years. I was on the verge of completely shaving it. I saw one of God's favorites on TikTok with the hair of a goddess suggest this stuff. All I can say is wow! This cream must have been dropped from heaven because it has saved my fried hair. Worth every penny so you too can be one of God's favorites." — Kirstin Get it from Amazon for $30. 16. A Bissell multipurpose carpet and upholstery cleaner because it's likely to become your BFF when it comes to tackling the toughest stains in your home. This little machine's strong spray and suction can easily remove spots, stains, and odors. Use it in your car too — it's compact and portable! Each cleaner comes with a trial size of Bissell's Spot & Stain Formula, which is also available on Amazon for $16.99! Promising review: "I love this thing. I bought it on a whim after seeing so many Tiktoks about it and can now say I am obsessed with it. As soon as it arrived I wanted to try it out, so I started on an old, old stain on my rug, and imagine my surprise when it instantly came out. Then I thought I would try my couch, and it now looks brand-new. Next was my car. I've owned my car for 10 years, and it has fabric seats. Honestly, I was grossed out by how much brown liquid and dirt came out of those seats, but my car looks and smells amazing now. I would highly recommend this, easy to move around and clean rugs, couches, cars, chairs, and more." — Zoey Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in three styles). 17. And a bagless, touchless stationary vacuum so that clean floors no longer mean that you have to struggle with hair clumps that keep falling out of the dustpan or wrestle with a heavy vacuum. This'll magically suck up all that dirt you sweep up so you can go on about your day. EyeVac is a small business that specializes in vacuums for home and commercial use. Promising review:"Saw it on TikTok and knew I had to have one. I hate cleaning but get annoyed with the clumps of dog hair and bits of things on my kitchen floor. I usually just vacuum my tile with the vacuum which is a pain. This thing is so easy to just sweet things into and it sucks them right up. Sure, it's more expensive than my actual vacuum, but I've only had it three days and have used it two times." — AC Get it from Amazon for $149 (available in three colors). 18. *PLUS* a sleek as heck wireless handheld vacuum because unexpected (and unnecessary 🙄) messes know no bounds. This little guy has adjustable nozzles depending on what kind of surface, making it easy to use for computers and desks, car interiors, and in little areas around your home. Plus, for a cleaning gadget, it looks so ~chic~. Amazon, Promising review:"Another 'TikTok made me buy it' purchase. I absolutely love this thing. Helps with cleaning my daughter's desk since she's homeschooling, and it's easy to use if you have to clean drawers." — Manisha Roopnarine Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in five colors). 19. A cult-favorite ~secret~ popcorn salt to bring the glorious, buttery flavor of movie theater popcorn right to your own home. Don't feel guilty when you realize you've finished half the bowl before the movie even starts — it tastes delicious, and hey, you're only human. Here's what BuzzFeed editor Emma Lord says about it:"Our family recently unearthed this because beloved To All The Boys I've Loved Before author Jenny Han mentioned that it was her secret to delicious popcorn, and it may have just wrecked me for other at-home popcorn for the rest of my life. It genuinely tastes just as salty, buttery, and savory as fresh movie theater popcorn. I inhaled it so fast that every single one of my organs lit up in mild alarm." Promising review:"I am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn (I have no self-control). This has by far been my favorite 'TikTok made me buy' item. My at-home popcorn is now my favorite thing to make, and I don't need to go to the theater for popcorn. Very much worth the purchase and this will last me such a long time." — S Martinez Get it from Amazon for $9.14. 20. A deeply hydrating and plumping Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré — truly a magical, multi-purpose cream in a bottle. It's enriched with soybeans and aloe vera to soothe and moisturize, as well as beeswax and shea butter that protect and nourish the skin. Plus, reviewers rave about how smooth of a canvas it provides as a makeup primer! Promising review: "My skin is really dry and sensitive. I tried this cream because of a TikTok lol! But honestly, it's just perfect! I tried so many moisturizers and always had some issues. This cream is way better than La Mer; the scent is good, and it's also a good primer. Just buy it and thank me later." — Raquel Malhi Get it from Amazon for $17+ (available in two sizes). 21. A set of "floating" kitchen knives because not only will it look stylish and chic on your kitchen counter, but these knives will slice through meats, bread, fruits, and veggies like no one's business! Each set comes with 13 professional chefs' knives, kitchen scissors, a peeler, a two-stage knife sharpener, and an acrylic knife stand. Promising review:"I love these knives! I saw them on TikTok and decided I had to have a set of black knives, and they exceeded my expectations for sure. Super durable and very sharp. And they aren't an eyesore in the kitchen." — Emily S. Get the 20-piece set from Amazon for $49.99 (available in three set sizes and eight colors). 22. A super-chic minimalist glass tumbler for anyone who thinks "phone, wallet, keys, COFFEE" every time they leave the house. And for those of you who aren't the best at drinking water (shhh, we're not talking about me right now), having this cute bottle of H2O with you might help you remember to stay hydrated! Promising review:"I saw this product on TikTok and automatically liked it! I love that it comes in so many different colors and the top is wood. I drink lots of water and needed a cup I could take with me everywhere. I could also put iced coffee in it too. I love that it came with two straws, a clear one and white. I will be purchasing another one for my husband and also one for my mom in different colors!" — CozyRozie Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in dozens of colors and packs). 23. A cropped workout tank because it has over 40,000 5-star ratings and a lightweight, moisture-wicking power fabric that's perfect for your next yoga sesh (or to pair with your favorite jeans for a casual sunny day). TBH, this crossed my radar because of Stephanie Buttermore, a popular YouTuber who shares stories of her gym routines on Instagram. Promising review:"I saw this on TikTok and was hesitant 'cause I'm used to buying, like, cheap $5 crop tops, but thank you to whoever on TikTok posted these because I'm gonna end up buying backups and every color. They're so cute but still laid back and can be used from day to day, going out or working out. They make the girls look great, too, without having to wear a bra underneath. A little pricey but so worth it." — Nads Thoughts Get it from Amazon for $21.99 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 19 colors). 24. A firming eye cream, which brightens and firms the sensitive skin around your eyes using the powers of vitamin C, vitamin E, rosehip seed oil, and hibiscus flower extract. Promising review:"I found this eye cream on Instagram through an influencer, and also seeing videos on TikTok, and thought, you know what, let me give it a try. And I have to say it's a great product. It's extremely moisturizing and feels great on the skin. I've been using it for just a little bit now, and I've seen slightly fewer indentations around my eyes. So I'm excited to see, after using it longer, what my results are going to be! I say try it!" — Kindle Customer Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in four sizes). 25. A Revlon hot-air brush that'll save you more than double the time it takes you to style your hair with a traditional blow-dryer and round brush. This magical tool will give you soft, smooth waves with just a few passes! Unlike other hair dryers, this one can be held closer to the roots and scalp for a higher volume and lift, and helps you curl hair at the end while it dries. It comes with three heat settings and is designed to work on all hair textures — reviewers with 2a–4c hair mentioned it worked for them, and especially noted that it helps cut down on drying time! Promising review:"OH MY LANTA. PURCHASE THIS NOW. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. I found this on TikTok and saw the gal's review and had to buy it. I have thick hair, and this dries my hair in less than 15 minutes. PLUS I don't have to fuss with a straightener or a curling iron if I don't want to!! It leaves my hair so soft and shiny and gives it SO MUCH VOLUME! I recommend this to ANYONE I talk to about it. Seriously, my favorite styling tool. Seriously so in love." — Sydney Get it from Amazon for $32.30 (available in eight styles). 26. A slim magnetic stove shelf, which quickly fastens on the top of your stove and gives you easy access to all your most-used tools, oils, and seasonings while you listen to music and harness your inner Martha Stewart. Amazon StoveShelf is a US-based small business that specializes in stove shelves for various sizes of stoves. Check out a Tiktok of the StoveShelf in action. Promising review:"There was no set it out of the box and place it on the stove. The magnets are very strong keeping the shelf fixed in place. The magnets are raised allowing air flow underneath preventing the shelf from heating up. Sizing was perfect. I love it!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in three sizes and in three finishes). 27. A popular exfoliant foot peel — you apply the two bootie-shaped masks on your feet for an hour, wash your feet, and then, over the next five to seven days, enjoy the disgustingly satisfying experience of watching all of your dead skin fall away to reveal baby-soft feet. Reviewers swear by this for calluses and rough, cracked skin! Promising review:"I'll be honest, it took me four months to talk myself into using these after TikTok convinced me to buy them. The results were amazing, and all of my dead skin is gone! On day six, after a shower, I gave my feet a little extra scrubbing, and they are softer than they have been after any $100 pedicure." — Asha Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three sizes and nine scents). 28. A ChomChom pet hair remover that picks up all your dog's (and your!) hair as you roll it back and forth across your couch's surface. It's a fan fave and requires no adhesives, sticky tape, or batteries to clean up after your furry family member. Seriously, this deserves ALL the rounds of appaws. When you're done, press the button, open the remover, empty it out, and it's ready to use again! See it in action on TikTok! Promising review:"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 $24.99 (available in two colors). 29. A compact rolling desk bike to help you get your workout in while answering what you hope is the last email of the day. It has enough room for your laptop, notebooks, phone, coffee mug, and even has a cupholder right under the desk surface. Not only does it let you squeeze some cardio into your day, but it also helps you maintain good posture! This desk bike is also height adjustable, so you can get your perfect fit with the tray, and has "whisper quiet" pedaling, eight resistance levels, and a way to track your mileage, RPM, and other stats. Promising review:"I saw this on TikTok and I bought it. No regrets! I've used this almost daily since I got it. I'm moving way more than I did before. The tabletop part is a little loose, but that might be from me leaning on it too much. It wasn't originally like that. I haven't looked into tightening it. This is 10 out of 10 recommended for someone who's looking to move more!!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $299.99+ (available in three styles and two colors). Psst — you can watch the viral desk bike TikTok featuring it for more insight on how it works. It's been liked over 1.8 million times! 30. A six-outlet wall charger, which comes with two USB fast-charging ports and a night-light, so that the charging station in every room of your home is nice and organized. It's just the thing you need for larger chargers that take up too much space! Promising review:"Better than any strip! Saw this on TikTok and it's everything. Love the auto night-light feature. So versatile and compact. Worth every penny. Will be ordering more." — Kellie Get it from Amazon for $12.98+ (available in two sizes and three colors). 32. A tin of Cirepil blue wax beads, which just so happens to be a wax that a ton of professional salons use anyway. Might as well save some cash and do it yourself, right? This uses a gentle, hard wax to easily remove both the coarsest and finest of hairs, just like that. You'll be left with such delightfully smooth skin, you'll find yourself feeling extra impatient for summer to arrive so that you can show it off. Promising review:"Best wax ever. I saw this on someone's TikTok and as a first timer I was easily impressed on how easy this was to spread and remove." — L Get it from Amazon for $23.20 (available in three sizes). 33. A handheld milk frother, if you spend so much money at the coffee shop, the baristas are starting to learn your name. 😬 This lets you curate your own rich, creamy foam in seconds so you can enjoy caramel macchiatos and other foamy cups of joy from the comfort of your home (and with probably twice the amount of money in your bank account than usual). Promising review:"So I'll admit I got this on a whim after a TikTok video, however, I'm in love with this thing! It's so much fun to use, and you make your at-home drinks feel so much more special. It's easy to use and froths pretty quickly if you're on the fence, I'd say, what are you waiting for, buy it already!" — Denise Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in 45 styles). 34. A *gorgeous* Winky Lux Flower Balm that adjusts to the pH of your lips and gives you an adorably rosy tint that looks fab on all skin tones. Plus, the lipstick itself is so pretty, you'll make sure to be around lots of people when it's time to reapply. Here's what BuzzFeeder Heather Braga has to say about it: "My sister and I have this fun lil' lip balm, and we love it! The flower inside is as pretty as the shade of pink it creates. I like minimal makeup, so this product has been a slam dunk for me." Promising review: "I loved this color changing balm!!!!!!! It's been my favorite purchase so far. Saw this girl on TikTok use it and I had to try it. It's super compact and the color it gives out is so pretty and fits well with everyone's skin tone. It's moisturizing and it's sheer. I'm buying more instead of getting my lips tattooed." — Stephany Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in three colors). Reviews in this post have been edited for length and clarity.

27 TikTok Products That Are Actually Worth The Investment
1. An undetectable mouse jiggler if you work from home and get the sudden urge to dash out to run an errand or walk the dog. (Priorities, right?) This helpful gadget lets you stay "active" on Gchat, Teams, or Slack in the meantime! Promising review:"Like everyone else, I stumbled upon this product because of a TikTok I saw. Setup was extremely easy and I'm pleased to say that my Teams green light is on all the time now. Workers of the world, unite." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in five styles). 2. A set of antimicrobial toothbrushes for those mornings when you might not get around to flossing, but still want to get a deeper clean than a regular toothbrush can give you. The tip of each of these tiny "floss" bristles are as thick as a single human hair and reach deep into the grooves of your teeth for a cleaner, fresher mouth. And if you have sensitive teeth, no worries — reviewers say these bristles are super soft. This toothbrush is also formulated with nano-silver, which may help kill off microbes left on the bristles. 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 what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says about it:"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 nights be sore like I was. It felt like after going to a dental cleaning." — AN Get a two-pack from Amazon for $9.99. 3. A set of affordable, highly popular wireless Bluetooth earbuds that might even give your AirPods a run for their money. They come with several silicone ear pads so that they mold perfectly your ear, and they're fully waterproof! So if you want to have a live concert in the shower without disturbing your roomies, by all means. 😌 These come with a wireless charging case that provides up to 14 hours of charge (with the earbuds able to play for four-plus hours with each full charge). Promising review:"Best decision! These are the greatest headphones ever! I saw them on TikTok months ago and added them to my wishlist. I got a new phone that doesn't have the headphone port so I decided it was time to finally buy them. They are amazing and I probably won't ever take them out of my ears! 😂" — Kate Arnold Get it from Amazon for $18.99 (available in two styles and five colors). 4. A fabric defuzzer because you want to give your favorite sweater of five years another chance before you're forced to toss it. It removes fuzz, lint and pills from your most used pieces of clothing and adjusts to all kinds of fabrics. We are over having our OOTD be ruined by those annoying fuzzies. Promising review:"TikTok made me get it. I have a few favorite sweaters and was super upset when these little lint balls started popping up. I was looking for ways to remove them and stumbled upon this fabric shaver and my life has been changed! I absolutely LOVE it. 100/10." — Ruth Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in two styles and six colors). 5.

Promising review:" This is exactly what I needed! I have a white entry runner that sees so much traffic and just gets so dirty. I was about to just buy another rug when I decided to buy this instead. Works great! Easy to use especially if you're someone like me who doesn't read directions. You can just figure it out. It cleaned up my rug instantly and I use it every couple of weeks to keep my high traffic rugs fresh." — stef Get it from Amazon for $99.99. 6. Or a bagless, touchless stationary vacuum so that clean floors no longer mean that you have to struggle with hair clumps that keep falling out of the dustpan or wrestle with a heavy vacuum. This'll magically suck up all that dirt you sweep up so you can go on about your day. Promising review:"Saw it on TikTok and knew I had to have one. I hate cleaning but get annoyed with the clumps of dog hair and bits of things on my kitchen floor. I usually just vacuum my tile with the vacuum which is a pain. This thing is so easy to just sweet things into and it sucks them right up. Sure, it's more expensive than my actual vacuum, but I've only had it three days and have used it two times." — AC Get it from Amazon for $149 (available in three colors). 7. A lightweight quilted jacket for that effortless yet chic look. It's got thick, insulating fabric and a classic, slightly faded look. Amazon Check out a TikTok of the quilted jacket in action. Promising review: "I normally get medium in jackets. i ordered medium here. Nice, comfy, and a bit oversized. SO COMFORTABLE. I get asked about it all the time. Never take it off!" — Aron Wolfson Get it from Amazon for $49.99+ (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 16 colors). 8. An EasyWring microfiber spin mop that is so easy to use, it would've probably let Cinderella get to the ball on time. It has a hands-free wringing system and is made to reach into those ~extra~ dusty corners. Who knows if we'll ever not complain about having to mop, but at least this brilliant invention will give you clean floors that makes it look like you totally love it. O-Cedar/YouTube / Via Promising review: "I had had it with my broken basic mop and bucket. I tried to just get a dollar store Swiffer to get us by, but that wasn't cutting it at all. With three boys and a dog who makes his rounds on all the furniture and every exposed corner, I had to do something. 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+ (available in three styles). 9. A set of two traceless adhesive shelves for those of us that have a thorough shower process with many heavily used products but not a lot of space. This lets you keep everything neatly organized in one area! Promising review:"I saw these shelves on TikTok and really wanted to try them out, as I have no shelves in my shower. The adhesion is impressive — they've stayed sticking for the past two weeks with no sign of letting up, and are holding about four bottles of products on each of the two racks I have hanging. I thought for sure they would fall after showering or something, but they have stayed strong and held up. I'm so impressed! I'm sure I will purchase more in the future. Super duper easy to install, they look beautiful and modern, and give my bathroom a totally different vibe. It's so nice to have a product like this available!! Thank you!" — Sara B Get it from Amazon for $28.79 (available in two sizes and four colors). 10. First Aid Beauty's KP Bump Eraser Body Scrub Exfoliant lots of reviewers with keratosis pilaris and similar skin conditions swear by. This'll help you gently exfoliate rough patches and dry bumps so that your skin looks and feels ~silky smooth~. Amazon Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and Instagram. I decided to try it and it really works. I used it on my thighs and upper arms. I noticed a difference the first time and even more the second time!!! Fabulous product. Worth every penny." — Launa Get it from Amazon for $10+ (available in five sizes). 11. A Yonanas fruit soft serve maker that'll satisfy any and every ice cream craving, since it lets you create a concoction *specifically* to your liking! It transforms any frozen fruit into an ice cream or sorbet texture so you can enjoy a chilly treat right from the comfort of your own home. Promising review:"I saw one of these in action at a friends house like five years ago and thought it was just a made up memory, because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems wild. But 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! I t makes the creamiest, best tasting fruit ice cream ever. It's easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." — DMCKAY Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in five colors). 12.

Each set comes with 13 professional chef's knives, kitchen scissors, a peeler, a two-stage stage knife sharpener, and an acrylic knife stand. Promising review:"I love these knives! I saw them on a TikTok and decided I had to have a set of black knives and they exceeded my expectations for sure. Super durable, and very sharp. And they aren't an eye sore in the kitchen." — Emily S. Get the 20-piece set from Amazon for $44.99 (available in two sizes and seven colors). 13. A set of moisture-wicking extra soft cooling bedsheets that'll welcome you with a wonderfully cooling hug, even if it's just for a *much-needed* midday nap. They've helped countless reviewers with insomnia, night sweats, and overheating issues. Plus, they come in so many gorgeous colors — one for every aesthetic! Sets come with a flat sheet, fitted sheet, and two pillowcases (with only one pillowcase included in the Twin size). Promising review: "These are the real deal!! I found them from a TikTok and my husband actually said after the first night, 'Let's just replace all of our sheets with these, they're so comfortable!' It's a beautiful blue and white pattern. They wash well and breathe at night — I am always hot but these stayed cool. Definitely buying more!" — Julia Monroe Get it from Amazon for $39.97+ (available in 40 colors and in sizes twin-Cal King). 14. A set of Wad-Free pads if you're done struggling with damp, wrinkled sheets after running them through the dryer. These will stop those sheets from tangling and twisting during wash/dry cycles so they come out fresh, clean, and dry the first time. 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 Get a set of two from Amazon for $19.99+ (also available in a set of four). 15. A super-chic minimalist glass tumbler for anyone who thinks "phone, wallet, keys, COFFEE" every time they leave the house. And for those of you who aren't the best at drinking water (shhh, we're not talking about me right now), having this cute bottle of H2O with you might help you remember to stay hydrated! Emma Lord/BuzzFeed Promising review:"I saw this product on TIkTok and automatically liked it! I love that it comes in so many different colors and the top is wood. I drink lots of water and needed a cup I could take with me everywhere. I could also put iced coffee in it too. I love that it came with two straws, a clear one and white. I will be purchasing another one for my husband and also one for my mom in different colors!" — CozyRozie Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in dozens of colors and in multiple packs). 16. Sol de Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream if you want to be known for your absolutely SCRUMPTIOUS scent. Enriched with caffeine, guarana extract, and coconut oil, this miraculous little jar of cream will help tighten *and* smooth your skin like nobody's business. Promising review:"Like so many, I was brainwashed by TikTok into buying this rather expensive I bought one for my mom and one for my sister and five more for myself as they became harder to find. My favorite thing about it is the smell. Lightly tropical/coconutty but nothing overwhelming. Every time I wear it people say, 'What are you WEARING?' like I have some amazing perfume on. Besides that, it really is a great moisturizer. I'm not usually a sucker for marketing but this was so worth it." — Kristen Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in three sizes). 17. A slim magnetic stove shelf, which quickly fastens on the top of your stove and gives you easy access to all your most used tools, oils, and seasonings while you listen to music and harness your inner Martha Stewart. Amazon StoveShelf is a US-based small business that specializes in stove shelves for various sizes of stoves. Check out a Tiktok of the StoveShelf in action. Promising review:"There was no set it out of the box and place it on the stove. The magnets are very strong keeping the shelf fixed in place. The magnets are raised allowing air flow underneath preventing the shelf from heating up. Sizing was perfect. I love it!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in three sizes and in three finishes). 18. A discreet, easy-to-install portable door lock for when you're traveling or staying in an unfamiliar place. This is perfect for giving you some extra security (and peace of mind)! Amazon Promising review:"My apartment door has a deadbolt but no lock on the door handle. The latch is also misplaced so if it's not dead bolted anyone can just push my door open. Took a few tries to get this right but makes me feel much more secure and it's easy to use when you get the hang of it! I also take this with me when traveling as it fits almost all doors. Definitely recommend, thanks TikTok for showing this to me." — Anna Get it from Amazon for $11.24 (also available in multipacks). 19. A delightfully practical Stojo collapsible travel cup because it collapses into an itty-bitty, easy-to-store (and easy to travel with!) size. Bonus? You can easily reheat it in the microwave, unlike other travel mugs! Check out a TikTok of the Stojo collapsible cup in action. Stojo is a small business that specializes in dishwasher-, microwave-safe storage and travel products with the goal of eliminating single-use plastics. Promising review:"I take my lunch to work and during mid day I like to use the Keurig to brew a cup of coffee. The 12-ounce Stojo cup I purchased is very practical. It is thick and durable. The plastic collar enables you to hold the cup without squeezing it or burning your hands on the hot walls of the cup. It seals well so you don't have to worry about leaking your drink on your shirt. It even has some reasonable thermal properties. There is enough volume in the cup to allow for the 12-ounce brew plus ample creamer. It's not a stainless vacuum cup, but it does hold its temperature better than your typical gas station or coffee shop cup. Plus you have the advantage of being able to reheat your drink in the microwave which you can't do with a stainless cup. Washes easily too. If you want a 12-ounce cup that keeps your drink hot or cold for a long time, this isn't the cup for you. But if you need something practical that will keep your coffee warm for 30–45 minutes, can be reheated in a microwave, and collapses to the dimensions of a tall hockey puck, this is a good purchase. You'll have it for years." — ViciousCycle Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes and 24 colors). 20. A power scrubber brush — let's just say your toughest bathroom stains have met their match. This set includes three types of brushes in different shapes and sizes so that every surface, nook, and cranny gets squeaky clean without the need for all that laborious scrubbing. Promising review:"So I kept seeing this item on TikTok and thought, 'heck, why not?' I love this item for deep cleaning, whether it's car mats, shoes, or the shower." — A. Givens Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in six colors). 21. A longline sports bra with a classic V-neckline. It's made of sweat-wicking fabric and goes with, well, anything! Pair it with your fave biker shorts or leggings and you'll be able to go straight from your errand-packed morning to your afternoon spin class. Promising review:"I saw these tanks all over TikTok for being just like the Lulu Aligns. I decided to purchase one and absolutely love it. The fit and style is exactly the same. I will say the material is not as soft and is more like a bathing suit material but overall it's a great purchase!" — M Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in women's sizes XS–3XL and 14 colors). 22. A tin of Cirepil blue wax beads so that you can ditch breaking the bank (the pros use this wax anyway!). Now, you can do it yourself. 😉 It removes your finest *and* coarsest hair in minutes. Beware: It'll be almost impossible to stop stroking your skin because of how utterly soft it'll end up feeling. And don't worry — for how effective it is, it's super gentle! Promising review:"Best wax ever. I saw this on someone TikTok and as a first timer I was easily impressed on how easy this was to spread and remove." — L Get it from Amazon for $23.20 (available in three sizes). 23. A large capacity rotating makeup organizer because it'll display all of your everyday beauty essentials and have them super easily accessible while taking up almost no space! A true lifesaver, if you ask me. Promising review:"Just another thing TikTok made me buy! The quality of the plastic is really great and I love that you can move the shelves as you see fit." — Reagan Get it from Amazon for $23.99 (available in two styles). 24. A compact rolling desk bike to help you get your workout in while answering what you hope is the last email of the day. It has enough room for your laptop, notebooks, phone, coffee mug, and even has a cupholder right under the desk surface. Not only does it let you squeeze some cardio into your day, it also helps you maintain good posture! This desk bike is also height adjustable so you can get your perfect fit with the tray, and has "whisper quiet" pedaling, eight resistance levels, and a way to track your mileage, RPM, and other stats. Promising review:"I saw this in TikTok and I bought it. No regrets! I've used this almost daily since I got it. I'm moving way more than I did before. The tabletop part is a little loose but that might be from me leaning on it too much. It wasn't originally like that. I haven't looked into tightening it. Ten out of ten recommended for someone who's looking to move more!!" — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $269.99+ (available in two colors and three styles). Psst — you can watch the viral desk bike TikTok featuring it for more insight on how it works. It's been liked over 2.5 million times! 25. A six-outlet wall charger, which comes with two USB fast-charging ports and a night light so that the charging station in every room of your home is nice and organized. It's just the thing you need for larger chargers that take up too much space! Promising review:"Better than any strip! Saw this on TikTok and it's everything. Love the auto night-light feature. So versatile and compact. Worth every penny. Will be ordering more." — Kellie Get it from Amazon for $17.97 (available in two sizes and three colors). 26. A cable cord-concealing box if you actively avoid looking at that jumble of wires and cables in the corner of your living room. This elegant box keeps the mess hidden while also keeping your kids/dogs away from messing with them. Amazon Promising review: "I bought it because I saw a woman on TikTok showcase something similar like this on her page (on how to keep a home tidy) and I was like I HAD to buy! It's wonderful! I have ALWAYS hated seeing all the clutter of cords stick out from cord extenders and having this makes my small place look cleaner and organized! I would recommend this for anyone!" — Chidi Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors). 27. A pair of high-waisted quick-dry running shorts which give you top-notch comfort and mobility. These come with an elastic waistband, a relaxed fit, and drumroll please... side pockets! Emma Lord/BuzzFeed Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says about it:"I recently bought these shorts because I'm in love with the similar ones you can get at Old Navy, but they sell out so fast. Turns out I love these even more! I love the huge range of colors you can buy these in (at other places they often sell out too quickly to get to pick!), love that the high-waistedness of them meets about where my running crop top ends so I don't have to get bonkers with sunscreen, and love love loooooove the side pocket for my keys. I only have them in purple so far, but I'm excited to try other colors!" Promising review: "Buy these right now! I saw these on TikTok as being very similar to a pair of Lululemon shorts. I would say the feel of these is more similar to Nike shorts than Lulu but the cut is great and the liner keeps them out of your nooks and crannies when working out. I have already ordered another pair! Sizing is the same as it would be with Nike shorts as well, but I prefer these to the traditional Nike shorts." — Lindsey Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in women's sizes XS–3XL and 31 colors).

Workers of the world, unite." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $29.98+ (available in four styles). 2. A pair of blue-light–blocking glasses to help prevent eye strain and provide protection from the glare of screens (computer screens, phone screens, all the screens)! Note: Results from wearing blue-light–blocking glasses are mostly placebo effect. According to the Mayo Clinic, while blue-light blocking or filtering products such as blue-light glasses decreases the transmission of ultraviolet light involving wavelengths, there is no significant improvement in vision performance or sleep quality. Read more about it here. WearMe Pro is a family-owned small business based in Temple, Arizona. The brand provides affordable, trendy shades and partners with the Arizona Humane Society to provide supplies for animals in need. Promising review:"Love these blue light glasses! I usually wear contacts and like the freedom of being able to take these off without going blind throughout the day (my prescription glasses have blue light coating too but I don't always want to wear them all day long). The style is so cute (love the tortoiseshell!) and they're super comfortable. This brand always delivers. Highly recommend!!" — Molly Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in three colors). 3. A set of memory foam gel pads that work as support for your wrists, giving them relief from being in the same position eight hours a day. They'll help prevent cramping and wrist pain, which can put a damper in anyone's work or gaming time. It comes in two pieces — one you can prop in front of your keyboard, and the other in front of your mouse. Promising reviews: "I've been working from home due to COVID and began experiencing wrist pain. The soft cushion from both items provided the relief I needed. Great products and price!" — Gaga2015 "Having worked from home for almost a year now without any ergonomic cushion, I finally decided to buy this and so glad I did. They come with stickers that you can place to avoid movement but so far they don't seem necessary... The mouse pad cushion feels perfect! I appreciate not having the ball of my palm resting against a hard surface all day long. This also isn't sliding around on the desk. Feels perfect. These cushions have a great memory foam feel but not so much that they are very sensitive to the touch, they mostly keep their shape." — UAstudentn Get it from Amazon for $11.97+ (available in 14 colors). 4. And a gel-enhanced seat cushion to not only help straighten your posture, but to make your office chair WAY more comfortable. Hours of sitting won't hurt so bad with this! ComfiLife is a small business based in San Diego. They're all about pain relief, comfort, and taking care of your body.

Highly recommend." — Bellarosa555 "Since I've started working from home (coronavirus quarantine) I really miss my office chair. I saw this reviewed on BuzzFeed and immediately ordered it. Best decision ever. It helps my posture and makes my stiff kitchen chair way more comfortable." — Melissa Schuler Get it from Amazon for $41.99+ (available in five colors). 5. A reversible waterproof desk mat so you can turn any space into a work area. The leather mat is heat resistant, easy to clean, and works as a mouse pad. And for my indecisive folks (i.e. me), the reversible colors make it much easier when you want to change your office aesthetic. Promising review:"This is great to add some personalization to the desk. I like that it keeps my swearing cups from getting all over my desk. Is easy to write on and the two sides makes it easy to flip back and forth." — ajb1234 Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in four sizes and in 13 color combinations). 6. A gorgeous and clever monitor riser with four USB ports because a little extra height and more USB ports are *never* a bad thing to have. And when it's an all-in-one deal!? You cannot pass this up! Other things to keep in mind: raising your laptop or monitor up to eye level makes for better ergonomics (i.e. reduced eye and neck strain), PLUS by lifting your screen up, you make more room on your desk for storage underneath the stand. Read more about how ergonomic workstations can help at Cleveland Clinic. Craft Kitties is a small biz that makes gorgeous items home and office items out of real wood. Promising review:"I looked at a lot of monitor stands before picking this one and I'm so glad I landed on this! Yes, it's more expensive than others you'll find on Amazon but the quality surpasses anything you'll find there. The wood grain is gorgeous and smooth and the legs attached flawlessly and look beautiful. Amazing product!" — Amy Gadbois Get it from Craft Kitties on Etsy for $53.10+ (available in two wood stains and multiple USB options). 7. A pair of noise-reduction earplugs that'll drown out any loud neighbors, barking dogs, and other distractions that prevent you from focusing on the ol' 9 to 5. These can also help protect your hearing at loud events, or just help limit loud noises in general for your sensitive ears. Plus, they're kinda stylish too! The earplugs also come with a carrying case and eight different ear tips (XS–L) to ensure the perfect fit. Promising review:"Wore these to a restaurant that is always busy and noisy due to no noise canceling panels in the place. It's all hard surfaces. So it can get loud. With these in, I could hear the silverware clashing, chairs screeching across the floors, and the many conversations around me, but it was SUCH A DIFFERENCE. A 'soft' mute. Clarity. I felt much calmer and could hear the people I was with, more clearly than I expected. Worth every penny." — Victoria Get it from Amazon for $34.95+ (available in six colors). A silicone super-soft version is also available for $27.95+ (available in seven colors). 8. A rechargeable clip-on LED light to brighten your frame for work meetings and provide the perfect lighting for selfies. It has three light modes, is small enough to fit in purses, and — unlike the popular ring lights — it won't leave awkward circles in your eyes when turned on! Promising review:"This fits perfectly in my small purse. I love that I can use this for my night time outings to take great selfies but also for work during my meetings. It has warm lights, white light, and a combination of both. You may also change the intensity of each. It really makes you look great." — Araceli Grande Get it from Amazon for $31.99. 9. A laptop stand you can put right on your desk. It makes any space much more work-friendly as the ergonomic design brings your laptop screen up to eye-level while you sit! No more leaning down to see your laptop screen means less neck and shoulder strain. BTW, raising your laptop or monitor up to eye level makes for better ergonomics (i.e. reduced eye and neck strain). Read more about how ergonomic workstations can help at Cleveland Clinic. Promising review:"This was recommended in an article about handling working from home during this COVID-19 stay-at-home requirement — since workspaces at home aren't as ergonomic as at work when it comes to eight-hour work days. It is SO worth it! It's incredibly sturdy. The laptop is now placed at a perfect angle. I bought a wireless keyboard which I can use with my laptop when the laptop is in the stand — and then at the end of my workday, I just slide my wireless keyboard under the laptop in the space created by the stand, and I regain that bit of space on my table. I love it. Add in the brushed silvery tone, and it has been a great investment for me." — Joe Mama Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in 10 colors). 10. An Anker 10-foot laptop charging cable so you aren't confined to your desk when your computer's low on juice. This cable is made of extra durable nylon and has a USB C connector compatible with MacBook and iPad Pros 2020 and later, Galaxy S20s, Pixels, and more. Promising review:"The quality is to be expected as with any Anker product. It's well built and charges quite fast. I like the bright red color and length of the cord. It is easy to connect and does exactly what it is supposed to." — stTeresyah Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in three lengths and three colors). 11. And a handmade wooden cord organizer to prevent your desk from looking chaotic with wires. It'll make concentrating on work much easier with a clean space. Stem Bear / Etsy Stem Bear is a small business that focuses on unique wooden desk and phone accessories. Promising review:"Really lovely wood. It still had its great, fresh wood smell. The box and wrapping was so, so lovely and you could see they'd put effort." — Ollie Law Get it from Stem Bear on Etsy for $44.07+ (originally $67.79; available in dark and light wood). 12. A compact under-desk electric treadmill complete with Bluetooth speakers, an LED display, and super quiet motor! This will make working out at home ten times easier because it doesn't take up much space and you can easily put it away when you're done — perfect for my WFH peeps whose "office" doubles as the living room, too. The LED display shows basic metrics like time, speed, and distance. Its speed range is 0.5–6mph and its weight capacity is 220 pounds. See it in action in this TikTok! Promising review: "This thing is awesome. I'm a small, not technical person and managed to haul this thing up two flights of stairs (slowly), unbox, turn on and even connect my phone to the Bluetooth in it. No assembly. Simple instructions. Distance and time measurements seem to be accurate, but the 'calories' might be missing a decimal point. No squealing or groaning under my walking. Not too loud. Slides right under my bed. Didn't need to adjust the belt, though the tool to do so is included. Packaging says to oil every 30 hours. The remote is needed to make the treadmill function. It is extremely cheap — like dollar store cheap. I hope the company has a remote replacement for if/when the remote bites it. Even still, I would 100% buy this again. Great treadmill!" — Crowells Get it from Amazon for $289.99+ (available in four colors and in a mini style). 13. Or a TikTok-famous rolling desk bike if cycling is more your speed. It's got an ergonomic design, adjustable height, and pedals that'll keep you active even when you have a long day of meetings. This compact, rolling desk bike is also height adjustable so you can get your perfect fit with the tray, and has "whisper quiet" pedaling, eight resistance levels, and a way to track your mileage, rpm, and other stats. Psst — you can watch the viral desk bike TikTok featuring it for more insight on how it works. It's been liked over 2.5 million times! Promising review:"Have had this product about a week now. Absolutely love it, what a game-changer!! As a consultant who lives a typical consulting life, I pretty much sit in front of acomputer all day long. Even though I work remotely a lot, I barely leave my desk. After a while, you will start to suffer from all the common things as everyone else, back pain, neck pain, you know all those things. Those all get changed when I saw this product! To be honest, I didn't buy it right away because of the price of course. But I finally decided to make the purchase as a holiday gift to myself. And I am so glad I made this choice! It hasn't been long, but I have been using it every day. It was super easy to put together and easy to move around because of the wheels. You can totally work while using it. The best part is, YOU DON'T EVEN FEEL LIKE YOU'RE WORKING OUT. And somehow it helps you to concentrate better. There is no need to dedicate one hour for the gym, this could be an anytime thing. When you are working, watching shows, even playing games. I guess because of the working out, my sleep improved as well. Not mention the pains from my back.

You can use them for working out, or just everyday use, they're super functional. They charge so fast! You plug them in for 10 mins, and get five hours of use...

And a 360-degree rotating headphone holder that won't take up any unnecessary space on your desk. It's got a simple installation too: just peel off the adhesive back and stick to any surface. Promising reviews:"[ This is] worth more than its cost. The mount actually comes with an extra sticky pad so if you choose to remove/move the mount to somewhere else you can do at your own leisure. The quality of material doesn't feel too cheap, and it's quite sturdy. We've bumped into it a couple of times but it hasn't broken or anything... The mount is extremely versatile in its flexibility and possible mounting options. Best I've seen out of other compact options (that aren't gaming headphone stands that take desk space)." — Forest Nguyen "I have a white desk and a light grey chair and this headphone hanger matches the design perfectly. The quality and simple hinged design is brilliant. The adhesive is very strong provided you clean the surface before applying and let it cure for 24 hours before hanging anything on it." — Henry Ting Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in black and white). 17. A coffee mug warmer with three heat settings and an auto shutoff feature so you'll never have to worry about forgetting to turn it off when not in use. Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed Promising review:"One of those items I didn't know I needed until I had it. As a busy mom of two little ones, I can't even remember the last time I got to finish a hot cup of coffee. Until now! This truly kept my coffee warm for literal hours. And I love the wood grain look of it. It's nice and doesn't look cheap at all. I'm going to keep it on my desk for when I'm working, and I'll never go without hot coffee again!" — ADR80 Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in eight colors). 18. A Logitech ergonomically designed mouse to help reduce hand cramps, muscle strain, and wrist pain. And yep, it's wireless, too! You can connect via Bluetooth or with the included USB receiver.

Get a closer look at this mouse on TikTok, where the reviewer talks about how much more comfortable they find using it compared to a traditional mouse. Read more about how an ergonomic mouse can help prevent carpal tunnel at Cleveland Clinic. Promising reviews: "I am a graphic designer and my hand was hurting so much using my other mouse that I couldn't work efficiently. I tried this mouse, and the pain and stiffness in my hand is gone. I'll never go back! I will say it definitely takes a few days to get back to your normal working speed but now that I'm used to the mouse I love it. I use it with a keyboard to the left and then an Apple trackpad to the left of the keyboard for scrolling and panning. It's comfortable and easy to use. You can download the mouse software and customize buttons on it, so I like that I have a copy and paste button now to cut down on hand movements on my keyboard." — Abigail Biegert "This mouse is perfect for smaller hands, or people who have any kind of hand pain. I find this extremely comfortable. The buttons on the mouse are very easy to push, and they're quiet.

Reviewers say it's "life changing," so no wonder this baby's gone viral. 👏 Amazon, Check it out on TikTok here! Read more about how ergonomic office chairs can help at Cleveland Clinic. Promising reviews:"Buy this chair. I've bought so many office chairs over the years. The classic Goldilocks story— this one's too bulky, this one's too flimsy, that one has too much hard plastic… yada yada. I think this one might be it. Really comfortable, solid build, attractive but the best feature is the wide seat. I can criss cross my legs easily to relieve the pressure in my hips which is life changing if you're chained to your desk sitting in meetings all day." — Larissa Harrison Get it from Amazon for $152.99+ (available in two materials, with or without wheels). 20. A set of water-absorbent coasters that are just as cute as they are useful. These terrazzo and marble-style coasters are fast-acting when it comes to liquid cleanup, and they even have a cork bottom so there is no unwanted movement. Trust me, you don't want ANY liquid leaking near your laptop! FYI, this set of six comes with two different color coasters: one with cool blue tones and the other with pink-ish warmer tones. You'll get three of each and a metal holder to keep them when not in use! Promising review (marble):"Great coasters. They absorb moisture well and keep me from worrying about ruining my new desk! Came packaged well and looks great. The cork bottom is a nice touch to keep away the fear of scratches. I'd order these again if I ended up needing more!" — Chance Promising review (terrazzo):"Beautiful, absorbent coasters. So many coasters just look pretty but don't absorb the water. These are actual stone with cork on the bottom. The water droplets absorb into the stone right away. Your wooden furniture will be protected. I can confidently use these on my unfinished wooden coffee table. The terrazzo style is cute and matches my boho hygge style pretty well." — Danaaa Get them from Amazon for $14.39+ (available in eight styles). 21. An under-desk phone holder for those who get distracted easily. This invention is easily applied with the included sticky tape.

The standard size holder fits all phones with a case under 3.38 inches wide and .67 inches thick (i.e. iPhone 13 Pro Max, Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, etc.) However, you can also request custom dimensions to ensure the perfect fit. Seek On Solutions is an Etsy shop based in Quincy, Massachusetts. They create a ton of cool 3D-printed tech accessories (included this best seller!). Promising review:"This is a great 3D printed product, and exactly what I was hoping shop clearly takes note with quality control. The phone holder is made extremely well, with sloped topsides for a wider surface area for the sticky adhesive (just peel and stick) to take hold, without making the actual wall sides of the holder too thick. My iPhone 12 Pro fits easily and this can hold a Pro Max too. The top cutout allows you to slide it out easily with a finger. Texture is not rough and won't scratch up your phone. Pretty much perfect, thanks!" — Michelle Get it from Seek On Solutions on Etsy for $11.88+ (available in standard and custom sizes, and in six colors). 22. An easy sliding camera cover that'll ensure your privacy and diminish the worry of accidentally leaving your camera on when you don't want to. Promising reviews:"I always thought that putting something in front of your camera was reserved for government paranoid people, but 1. that is a real worry and 2. this thing comes in handy for everyday life too. I work at an organization that uses a lot of conference lines with external clients and having this manual option to prevent others from seeing my video is such a nice peace of mind. It doesn't block the lens when opened and is super easy to apply. I also love that it is super discreet, and doesn't prevent my laptop from closing properly." — Manders "Works great on my Macbook Air and even our large desktop mac. Slider is easy to use." — Marianna Get a two-pack from Amazon for $6.99 (available in five colors). 23. A convenient desktop dry erase board if you'd rather jot something down than use a Post-it.

Promising review: "OMG where was this 20 years ago?I have ADHD and would always misplace to do lists, or misplace clipboards with reminders on them. They would get lost in the shuffle. Smartphone reminders are more of a hassle than they are worth with some informal lists that you think of spur of the moment (though sometimes they are great). Unlike other boards, I can put this in front of my FACE under the computer screen so I never overlook or forget it like every other system I've ever used in my life. This acts like a much more stylish and effective anchor or central 'office' for my quick VIP reminders. THANK YOU! I just wish ya had invented it 20 years ago!" — D Louis Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in five colors). 24. An electric standing desk for those who absolutely hate sitting in one place all day. There are tons of benefits to standing desks, too! The adjustable height helps with sitting posture and gets the blood flowing. Standing throughout the day also helps your mind stay more alert, which in turn increases productivity. BuzzFeed editor Jenae Sitzes has had her standing desk for years!: " I have a FlexiSpot electric standing desk at home (this one, specifically) and love it — it's a great brand, and mine hasn't given me any issues over the past few years." Promising review: "For 20 years, I owned and sat at a sturdy, wooden desk that I picked up at Goodwill for $50 in 2002. It served me very well for a long time. However, since recently moving into a new home, I wanted to make a change to something cooler, more modern, adjustable, and incapable of incentivizing me storing junk. I saw this desk on Amazon, read the good reviews, and determined this was the one. After assembling it, I am thrilled I chose this one. With a press of a button, I can raise and lower it to appropriate heights for either comfortably sitting or standing (I'm 5'10"). The material itself is very sturdy. There are NO drawers, which, after 20 years having the other home desk and having desks at work, I realized that drawers do nothing more than collect and store junk. Can't do that with this desk as this desk encourages minimalism and storing that junk somewhere else, i.e. probably the trash while I keep this desk tidy. Assembly was fairly easy. Definitely recommend." — David Taylor Get it from Amazon for $149.99+ (available in five sizes and 10 styles). 25. An undated daily planner so you can write in tasks based on your schedule. Do you only work three days a week? Or do you only need a planner when a certain time of year is extra busy?

Along with its adjustable height and angle, the desk features a non-slip leather desktop, a storage drawer, a removable book stand, AND a notebook slip, too. Amazon Promising review:"Unexpectedly awesome! This thing is the best impulse/desperation purchase I've made. Great for bed, sofas, and even as a low table on the floor. Sturdy. It just makes sense. — Tyler Stratton Get the x-large version from Amazon for $89.99 (also available in standard size for $48.99+; both available in three colors). 27. Or a cushioned lap desk that has a built-in mouse pad, wrist supports, and phone/tablet holders, because it's inevitable that you work from the couch or bed every now and then — this will make it much more comfortable for you. Promising reviews:"Bought this for my daughter in college. She loves to do school work on her bed. She says this desk is a 'game-changer.'" — s uper awsome person "This has got to be the best laptop lap desk I have ever owned! The wrist-rest is cushiony, and the cushions on the back are super comfortable on my legs: a slight incline, which is perfect. It's sturdy and light. Love the handle, mouse pad with borders so the mouse won't fall off, and the tablet/phone slots. I don't write a lot of reviews, but I am so happy with this product that I had to give it a good review. Would recommend it to anyone." — J. Castro Get it from Amazon for $42.99+ (available in four colors). 28. A Wi-Fi extender for those with an internet connection that's less than reliable. This ensures that your work day *won't* be interrupted by connection issues — even if your home office is nowhere near your router. Promising review:"Worth it! Working from home full time, with an online gamer, and a husband who also WFH, I needed to improve my connection speed. This did the trick. No more lag time, and overall I don't see any 'spinning wheels' of death. 😄" — Beverly Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in two styles). 29. A compact USB-powered desk fan that may be small, but is powerful enough to blow away any heat comin' your way! It's got three speeds, rotates 360 degrees, and comes in a ton of stylish colors. Amazon, Promising review: "This fan was one of my greatest addition to my little office is very small but super powerful with three different levels. I am absolutely in love with it and the color matched perfectly with everything on my table." — Dayana Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in six colors). 30. OR a mini space heater that fits perfectly on your desk, and works wonders when placed under it. The tiny, minimal design is also much more ~aesthetically~ pleasing than those giant alternatives, and it works just as well. Amazon, Promising review:"For its size it truly does the job. It's so cute and perfectly compact I wish I could have it out to display but I keep it under my desk. It goes perfectly with all my pink too. 😊 It's perfect for a small designated area but I really think if given the chance, it could warm a lot more area. I support, must buy." — Barbie Girl Get it from Amazon for $22.79+ (available in four colors). 31. A miracle-working Migraine Stick that gives you relief from headaches almost instantly. It's made with essential oils like peppermint, spearmint, and lavender that can even help clear your sinuses. Read more about aromatherapy and stress and tension at Johns Hopkins.

This topical oil has given me relief for nearly six weeks now. I have only had two to three headaches in that time, and they were mild. I ordered more already so I have some in my car and at home, and I bought some for two of my friends who suffer from chronic migraines. I would recommend this product to anyone with migraines. It is phenomenal." — Mary D. "This stuff is my go-to fix when I feel a migraine coming on. I suffer from sinus headaches and migraines usually once or twice a week. This product I put on each temple, under my nose and on my wrists when I feel the pressure starting and it cuts the pain to a minimum. It seems to stop the worst pain before it has a chance to start. Thank you for a great product! I will buy again and again!" — Brenton1985 Read BuzzFeed's write-up of this miracle migraine stick! Get it from Amazon for $12.95.
