Promising review:"The narrow width of this toaster helps free up real estate on my small countertop, plus it accommodates two slices of toast, English muffins or bagels as well as a regular width toaster. It comes in a beautiful teal color which I love. And the three toast levels ensure you don't burn food and the quality of the toast is just right — from light to brown. I highly recommend it!" — Joyce Hill Get it from Amazon for $19.98 (available in five styles). 3. A set of universal reusable K-cup pods so not only will you cut down on environmental waste, but you can get reeeeal picky about exactly what blends you're brewing into your beloved cuppa every morning. We are all officially getting too old not to have Annoyingly Specific Coffee Preferences, and this is here to help us on that journey. Pure HQ is a small business that specializes in kitchen products. Promising review: "Works great for my Keurig. I feel better not throwing away all those pods! Love the pod measuring scoop! The pods work great and are easy to use and clean. I just open the pod top and tap the bottom of the pod over the garbage to empty. Great value for money." — Kindle Customer Get a set of four from Amazon for $12.95 (also available with a scoop). 4. A "Lifty Loo" toilet seat handle to keep things germ-free when you're lifting the toilet seat up and down — even your toilet seat deserves to accessorize!!

An easily installed, stick-on fogless shower mirror so you can shave right in the shower and save yourself some time. Reviewers also love to install this outside their showers to do beauty and skincare routines easily if the Big Mirror is full of fog from a long shower! ToiletTree is a small business that specializes in bathroom products for home use. To keep it fogless, add hot water to the reservoir behind the mirror before you shower. This comes with a squeegee and a little shelf, and even rotates so you can get your best angle! Promising review:"I have tried multiple 'fogless' mirrors, but they all fail to live up to their claim. This one really works. Whomever came up with putting hot water in the back gets a thumbs up from me! You won't be disappointed with this mirror." — Veronica Greene Get it from Amazon for $37.95. 6. A snap-on pasta strainer to free your pasta from its hot juices straight from the pot, and spare you storage space to boot (is it just me or are colanders always in the business of being exactly in the way of whatever it is you need?). Psst — these are also a game-changer for washing your fruit, too! Amazon Kitchen Gizmos is a small business that specializes in kitchen accessories. Promising review:"I've owned this for about six months, and I couldn't imagine cooking without it. I hate strainers. They are bulky and fill up the dishwasher, I'm lazy, whatever. This strainer is a lifesaver. Clip it on your pan, strain, and voila! And it is so easy to clean. A little hot water and it's good to go for the next round. I highly recommend this gadget, it will retire your current strainer." — Viola Evens Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in seven colors). 7. A no-scrub weekly shower cleaner you can quite literally "set and forget" to maintain its cleanliness over time — once you apply it after a shower, you just have to wait eight to 12 hours and it'll quietly tackle the soap scum, grime, oils, mold, and mildew stains without any elbow grease from you. Promising review:"I saw this product on TikTok and decided to try it out for myself. The name doesn't lie — spray it on, shut the bathroom door, and in a few hours, the shower is 100 times cleaner. Usually I'll let it sit overnight, and by morning, the visible grime on the shower is gone, include soap scum. I'll usually let the shower water rinse the residue out, and then will take a bucket just to get everything off the shower walls. It is a bit slick if you try to get in the shower without rinsing the residue, but otherwise it's a worthy cleaning staple in my house." — Tara D. Get it from Amazon for $19.39+ (available in two scents and two sizes). 8. A set of magnetic fridge spice organizers to magically create storage space out of ~thin air~, and keep all your favorite spices and seasonings in convenient eye-level reach.

A reviewer-beloved veggie chopper that'll get you uniform, oh-so-satisfyingly cut veggies — this gadget juliennes, chops, spiralizes, and slices vegetables in an instant and has a built-in storage container to hold the chopped veggies so you can pour them into a pan or dish without any mess. 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:"Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $24.87+ (available in six styles and in four colors). 10. A set of two traceless adhesive shelves for your bathroom or kitchen that *don't* require any drilling or complicated installation other than sticking it straight to the wall. A chic and easy home fix?? Ugh, we lazy folks love to see it. Promising review:"I saw this on TikTok and had to try it. I love it. I have one in the shower and the other on the bathroom wall holding all the stuff normally on the sink. 10/10 recommend." — Sonia Get it from Amazon for $30.49+ (available in four colors). 11. A can colander to easily drain the juices from your canned goods. (No offense to whatever it is our beloved chickpeas are swimming in!!) Amazon Promising review:"For years, I've been saying somebody needs to invent something to easily drain tuna. Finally, it's here. Drains in 1-2-3. Quick, easy, and no mess. No longer do you have to deal with being sprayed or getting your hands messy. I only wish I had been smart enough to invent it myself. Who knew such a simple item would save so much time and less mess in the kitchen." — Lisa Get it from Amazon for $5.59. 12. A "Bread Buddy" dispenser that keeps sandwich bread fresh by ensuring it stays *way* more airtight than it does in just the bag alone, and also lets you use the bread bag in a clever way to dispense slices one by one. Tons of reviewers are noting how much longer their bread stays fresh (and how much easier it is to store without worrying about it getting smushed!). Check out a TikTok of the Buddeez sandwich bread dispenser in action. Buddeez is a family-owned, Missouri-based small business that specializes in unique household products. Promising review:"The Buddeez Sandwich Bread Dispenser is great! It does exactly what it was intended for. I live alone and I don't quite go through bread often enough before the last quarter section of the loaf starts to go stale. I was originally looking for something to put a loaf of bread in as a shell for my vacuum sealer, that would keep the bread from getting crushed from the pressure. This dispenser solved all of my problems. Thank you!" — DRMcQuaig Get it from Amazon for $13.59. 13. A stainless-steel sandwich cutter and sealer for anyone with Uncrustables tastes and a mortal human budget. Now you can make your own at home in batches and freeze them — and better yet, customize them so they're stuffed with your favorite brands of peanut butter and jelly or meats and cheeses. It's an Uncrustable, but make it cheap and bougie. You can also freeze the leftover crusts to make bread pudding, French toast sticks, bread crumbs, and stuffing! Or just go to clown town and eat them right then. 😋 Promising review:"What a game changer for saving money compared to buying the Uncrustables in the store. They are ridiculously overpriced, and with this thing, you can make them at a fraction of the cost. It's really simple to use and works really well. Also, it's very easy to clean, although I would keep it out of the dishwasher to avoid rust. This thing crimps the edges of the bread really well, so there is no spillage or leakage. It works just as well with Nutella as it does with deli meats and cheeses. There's a little learning curve as far as where to put your ingredients, but once you get the hang of it, it's super easy." — Josh Fowler Get it from Amazon for $13.99. 14. A clever silicone " Broombi," designed to flex harder than most of us have in a calendar year — it's an all-surface broom, squeegee, *and* pet hair remover, making it your one-stop shop for all your "fix this grimy floor IMMEDIATELY" needs. Promising review:"Absolutely love this broom! It does everything it states and shows. Excellent on carpets and spilt messes on the floor. Love how I get more dust and dirt off the floors. Also love that it can be made longer with just a quick twist. Durable, stable, and the appearance is much better than a tattered brush at the bottom most brooms! Getting into the corners is so much easier, too. Excellent broom!" — Sandra Moyer Get it from Amazon for $34.95 (available in two colors). 15. A pack of five refillable touch up paint pens you'll be especially glad to have for those high traffic areas in your home, where things get bumped and chipped and knocked about. Now you can fix up doors and cabinets in a quick minute instead of dealing with a whole can of paint. Slobproof is a small business that specializes in paint touch-up pens. Promising review:"I keep these in my kitchen drawer and it's SO convenient for my painted cabinets! I LOVE the way they look, but inevitably (even though I sanded and prepped), I'll get little chips in the paint. These touch-up pens stay in my junk drawer, which is full of paint at all times. T he cap makes it so it never dries out and stays super clean. But I'm able to grab them any time and just touch things up so my cabinets ALWAYS look fresh." — Claire Flores Get it from Amazon for $24.99. 16. A ceiling fan carbon filter that's about to be any allergy-prone human's hero — you can hide it on top of a ceiling fan blade, where it will secretly pick up dust, pollen, smoke, dander, and other allergens and improve the air quality of the room. Take THAT, pesky particles. Promising review: "I wasn't sure what to expect when purchasing these, but now they are a staple in every room of our house. Within three days the air smelled more crisp and was easier to breathe in our home. So simple and effective!" — Haylee Marez Get a three-pack from Amazon for $19.79. 17. A set of Wad-Free pads to ensure that your sheets stay separate from each other in the dryer and come out fresh, dry, and unwrinkled instead of looking like they got into a wet cotton brawl. 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. 18. A "Slice'n Store" butter dish that will stop you from dirtying a bunch of butter knives and leaving them on the counter. All you do is pop this out of the fridge, slice of a lil' (or large) slab with the built-in blade, and be on your merry, buttery way. Promising review: "Great addition to my kitchen essentials. Its durability is impressive, and it is straightforward to use. What makes it a keeper is how easy it is to clean. The quality is top-notch, and it's definitely worth the price. It stores butter well and fits perfectly in my fridge. Plus, the color adds a nice touch to my kitchen decor. Overall, it's a fantastic kitchen gadget." — Tiffany Mueller Get it from Amazon for $9.99. 19. A set of ingenious double shower curtain hooks to make putting on the shower curtain and the liner so! darn! easy!! that you'll never go back to those silly rings that pop off annoy the heck out of you again. Amazon Promising review: "I hate changing out the liner on my shower because it meant I had to remove the curtain too. Not any more! I saw this set of hooks in a TikTok review. Now I can swap out the liner with ease. The hooks also slide on the curtain rod very easily, no tugging." — Christina Get a set of 12 from Amazon for $6.99 (available in 18 colors). 20. A magnetic microwave cover perfect for anyone whose Panera soup obsession is a little *too* well documented over every surface inside of their microwave.

Hover Cover is a small business that specializes in microwave covers for home kitchen use. Check out a TikTok of the microwave cover in action. Promising review:"If you live in a small space like I do, this will seriously change your life. No longer do I have to struggle to find somewhere to put my cover if I'm heating up a cup of coffee. Just attach it to the roof of your microwave. Hopefully, you have a flat surface; check before you buy. There is a slight learning curve as to where to put it or the force or lack thereof needed, but after a couple of times, it's second nature. Love, love, love this product. I'm probably going to get some for Christmas presents next year, it's one of those items that you wouldn't necessarily buy for yourself, but it will change your life." — Rachel Get it from Amazon for $24.95 (also available in two-packs). 21. And a microwave cooling caddy that doesn't get hot so you can pop your grub out of the microwave without waiting for it to cool down or grabbing oven mitts. Especially important when several humans need the microwave and you can't be lingering there waiting for your soup bowl to be grab-able. Amazon Handy Gourmet is a small business that specializes in home and kitchen products. Promising review: "Who would have guessed how much easier this product makes getting hot items out of the microwave? This makes the retrieval much safer for me.

Oxo's new compact Brew Rapid Brewer, aka the answer to any money-conscious coffee lover's prayers — this version is not only cheaper and more portable than comparable models on the market, but WAY faster making cold brew without compromising on flavor. I'm talking five minutes as opposed to overnight, like other pitchers take — and it doesn't need to be charged or plugged in. 🤯 Amazon You can use this to brew hot coffee *and* cold brew by adding coffee grounds to the top portion, tamping it down, letting it steep, and pumping into a carafe full of hot or cold water.

Promising review: "I've been using this product now for several months. I'm honestly surprised by how something so simple can be so helpful and save me money. Just by tilting my laundry detergent jug on this, I'm able to get every last drop of detergent out of it, which prevents wasting detergent and saves me money. I've never had issues with clogging, and it holds a standard-size bottle or an oversized jug. It also helps to keep my laundry closet looking clean and organized. Good buy!" — Jenn Madonna Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in sets of two and three and in 10 colors). 24. An under-cabinet lid opener for anyone who doesn't feel like playing another rousing game of "knock on the neighbor's door to see if someone can open this damn Nutella jar" (don't look at me!!). This is also an excellent space saver compared to other manual lid openers, and causes way less wrist strain! Check out BuzzFeed's overview of the EZ Off Jar Opener. Promising review:"I saw this item on TikTok. Yeap. I am so glad I got it! I have trouble opening jars and bottles and this has been awesome. It works great. I followed the suggestion from other reviewers and installed it under the cabinet with the bottom of the 'V' facing away from the wall. You will have to twist the bottle counterclockwise. This method works well. I haven't had to use the little screws. I definitely recommend this item! It is wayyyyy better than the silicone grips." — Mariposista Queen Get it from Amazon for $15.99. 25. A jar of all-in-one decor paint, a chalk-style paint with a built-in primer designed to easily glide on furniture, upholstery, and any wood, metal, and glass surfaces.

Promising review: " I've bought a total of four of these things. I went on a kick of painting all of my generic black/dark brown Ikea furniture. I used this on both the shiny/smooth furniture and wood furniture, and it worked well on both of them. It definitely worked better on the wood furniture, though. The paint was unexpectedly very easy to use and the color came out a LOT prettier than expected! It was easy to clean off my hands and brushes and the paint came right off my clothes in the wash as well. Overall, I'm very very pleased with this paint and will purchase more if I need any crafty paint in the future." — Anna Get it from Amazon for $28.95 (available in 55 colors). 26.

Amazon Promising review: "I LOVE the look of this fruit bowl. I also love that its pedestal minimizes the space it takes up on the counter. I wasn't sure about whether I would like that it is plastic but now consider it a big plus. It keeps the bowl lightweight (but it is still sturdy) and makes it easy to clean. I highly recommend this fruit bowl. I couldn't be more pleased with mine." — Opinion o'Jen Get it from Amazon for $20.99 (available in four colors). 31.

Promising review: "I found these detachable pots and pans on a YouTube video. They are such a space saver for small kitchen. They can stack on top of each other, which only takes up a small corner of the cabinet. The spot protectors are so useful and neat that you won't scratch the pots. They are very easy to clean. Great quality that I've recommended to several friends." — Yuli Aoki Get it from Amazon for $59.99. 34. A handy brownie dividing pan so you can flex during the next cozy movie night by presenting your friends with perfectly crisp-on-the-outside, gooey-on-the-inside brownies all in uniform sizes and shapes. Those chumps with ordinary pans could NEVER. Emma Lord/BuzzFeed Um, I'm obsessed with this pan. I make those gooey three-layer brownies that are cookie dough on the bottom, Oreos in the middle, and either brownie or Nutella on top, and I famously underbake them because salmonella doesn't apply to me. Which is to say, usually when I make these it's a big gooey mess and my friends have to dig in with a spoon and it's less inviting for guests to take one. With this tray it was SO easy to put the batter in, stick the divider on top, and bake individual small bars. it was completely nonstick, and it was easy to pull the divider out once everything was cooked. The uniform brownies were a huge hit at a party! Get it from Amazon for $19.99. 35.

I cleaned two pairs of shoes and could not believe the results! Awesome." — Spencer Get a 10-pack from Amazon for $11.98. Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.

Amazon Each air fryer comes with the"PowerPod," two containers (a 4-quart and a 6-quart), and lids. The PowerPod has auto-shutoff and four modes: Max Crisp, Bake, Air Fry, and Recrisp. The "feet" are heat-safe, so you can prop it on any surface without worrying! Promising review: "I got my Ninja Crisper today and reheated some stuffed bread with feta cheese and spinach, and it did a wonderful job. I t was like it just came out of the oven the first time. Nice and crispy outside, but the inside heated just right. I love that the bottom glass can be covered with the lid it comes with. They come with a metal plate you can put in the glass bottom part, and it actually fits into the lid, so it doesn't get lost. The glass makes a difference in the taste, too. It is a great product and well worth it." — Jennifer Get it from Amazon for $159 (available in three colors). 8. An absorbent floral dish drying mat so lovely that you'll actually — gasp — look forward to doing the dishes? The "main character in a rom com" energy of this mat is too strong to resist.

I highly recommend this product." — Cambodian Nurse Get it from Amazon for $18.99 (available in six styles and three sizes). 9.

Amazon Check out a TikTok of the bacon bin in action. Talisman Designs is a small business that specializes in at-home cooking and entertaining products. Promising review:"This thing is awesome. Big enough to hold plenty of grease without taking up a ton of space. I keep mine in the butter compartment of my fridge next to the butter. I poured the grease right from the pan, still very hot right into it, and popped the lid on and put it in the fridge. Next time I needed some grease, I scooped some out with a spoon, no muss no fuss. Much better than the glass jar I was using. My only warning is if you get it out when people are visiting keep an eye on it. It's so cute and so good at its job everyone will want one." — John Dollard Get it from Amazon for $15.99. 11.

Enter Teeccino, which tastes miles better than decaf coffee, and is fully caffeine-free. It's so rich that it feels like it has notes of chocolate in it, and so satisfying that I had to check the label a zillion times just to make sure I hadn't misread it, and it secretly was coffee.

Promising review: "I make mini omelets in this frying pan and have had 100% success. Just toss in the ingredients you like (e.g., cheese, bacon, sausage, spinach) and it comes out perfect. It is also easy to clean and relatively small so it doesn't take up a lot of space in the 'pots' drawer, too. A+ all the way here." — Freestyle Barracuda Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three colors and in non-heart styles). 23.

Anybody with little kids will know that they make a constant mess. We had water all over the counter, mainly around the soap dispenser, and it was causing problems. This has helped a great deal. There is less water on the counter and I even like to put water on it sometimes just to watch it evaporate within about 60-90 seconds. It was totally worth the money." — David P. Get it from Amazon for $12.49. 26. A magnetic microwave cover perfect for anyone whose Panera soup obsession is a little *too* well documented over every surface inside of their microwave.

Amazon Promising review: "This is one of those random kitchen gadgets that you would never even think about existing, but it's brilliant! We grew kale in our garden, and I was spending way too much time cutting the leaves off the stems, then I stumbled across this tool being suggested on a blog. I immediately ordered one and was very impressed! It saves me so much time stripping those leaves. I also use it for rosemary, oregano, and other herbs." — Elaine S. Get it from Amazon for $7.50. 28.

It's also heat-resistant, dishwasher-safe, and too darn cute to resist. Amazon Promising review: "It works great and it's adorable.

Shopping · This rapid cold brew maker works in five minutes ... and you don't even have to plug it in. 1. An airtight Deli ProKeeper so beloved that it's gone viral on FridgeTok (if you know, you KNOW). Not only does this free up space and clutter in the fridge, but it keeps deli meat and cheese so fresh that you'll actually get your darn money's worth by preventing waste. Promising review: "I bought this because I have the outlandish idea that my refrigerator will look just like those on TikTok, but I am pleasantly surprised to find that it keeps my cold cuts fresher for much longer than expected. It's large enough to hold a pound or more of cold cuts or cheese, which is a bonus. The sealing technology is superb and strong. At one point, I almost could not open the container due to the seal being so airtight. Not only does this product look good in my fridge, but it is saving me money, so definitely a win-win for me." — IrishEyes Get it from Amazon for $21.95 (available in two styles). 2. A two-slice slim toaster to fit virtually *anywhere* in your tiny kitchen, and to look gosh darn adorable doing it. Bonus — these long slots make it ideal for larger slices of bread, like your beloved sourdoughs. Psst — if you're looking to save space in your kitchen and don't want to sacrifice on aesthetic, check out Bella's matching line of compact, affordable kitchen appliances! Promising review:"The narrow width of this toaster helps free up real estate on my small countertop, plus it accommodates two slices of toast, English muffins or bagels as well as a regular width toaster. It comes in a beautiful teal color which I love. And the three toast levels ensure you don't burn food and the quality of the toast is just right — from light to brown. I highly recommend it!" — Joyce Hill Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in three styles). 3. L'Oréal Paris BB Cream with moisturizing, anti-redness super powers reviewers swear by for an extra hydration punch to combat dryness. It also makes an excellent skin-softening primer base for makeup, with a lot of reviewers comparing its competitor, the Dr Jart+ Cicapair Color Correcting Cream, which is over twice as expensive. Promising review: "I'm really pleased with this moisturizing foundation. It spreads evenly and covers well. I have trouble in the winter with dry flaky patches and redness on my cheeks and I was very pleased to see how this moisturized and covered those areas very well. It does not look cake-y and can be built up. I chose the one for redness. Which seems like it would work for anyone. Highly recommend! And I have tried products from top of the line to the bottom." — Heather B. Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in six styles). 4. A big ole collapsible wash bin with a *drain plug* installed at the bottom that is like having a sink inside your skin — perfect for anyone who wants to keep dirty dishes separate from the sink bottom, and absolutely beloved by parents who have a bunch of bottles to sanitize at once. Promising review:"I bought this to wash baby bottles and pump supplies. Good build and does not feel cheap. I like that it is collapsible for storage and it has a drain on the bottom which makes it super convenient to drain after a soak.I can fit a lot in the tub for soaking." — Lacey D. Get it from Amazon for $16.99. 5. A weighted eye mask that's basically like a weighted blanket for your human eyes, designed to decrease stress and encourage ~deep sleep~. They also feature a 3D contour, so they're hollowed out in the middle and won't rest right on top of your eyes. Promising review: "Love these. These are soft and very comfortable, and they seriously black out every bit of ligh t. I love them. I would highly recommend. I'll probably never sleep without them again." — AJ I bought these at the last second for a flight when I lost my way more expensive sleep mask, and can safely say "good riddance" to that old pair — I love this version way more. It's perfectly contoured so it doesn't rub my eyes or mess up my makeup if I'm traveling, the weight is satisfying without being distracting, and it adjusts super quickly and easily without every getting caught in my hair. Also the pink is just absolutely precious, so my little Glinda x Barbie heart is most pleased to show if off. Get a pack of two from Amazon for $16.99 (available in seven sets). 6. E.l.f's brand new Lash XTNDR Tubing Mascara, a GODSEND for anyone with thin or fragile lashes. This uses lightweight ~tubing~ technology to wrap around lashes and give them a natural-looking, smudge-proof extension so good it almost looks fake. The real boon, though, is how easily the "tubes" slide off in clean, easy swipes at the end of the day when you're washing your face — absolutely no smudging, over-scrubbing, or special eye makeup removal products required. Check out a TikTok of the E.l.f. tubing mascara in action. I am not a new human to the tubing mascara game, and in fact readily spent $26 on the famous OG blend from Blinc every time it needed replacing. I didn't even love it for the length half as much as the fact that tubing mascara like this genuinely never smudges, but can I just say — regardless of price, the E.l.f. tubing mascara formula blows all the others I've tried out of the water. It gives me way more length and volume than other brands, slides on so much more easily, stays put ALL day, and never, ever smudges. My favorite part, though, is how gently and easily it comes off with soap and water. In the past, other mascara removals have felt rough on my lashes, but this comes off so fast that I'm like ??? was I even wearing mascara a minute ago?? Anyway, I hesitate even writing this review because I want to gatekeep the hell out of this before it sells out, but the world needed to know. I'm a big fan of the brown shade (which is what I'm wearing above!), but it also comes in black and soft black. Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in three shades). 7. Oxo's compact Cold Brew Rapid Brewer to make cold brew in FIVE MINUTES (!!) instead of overnight, like competing pitchers. Not only is it faster than comparable models, but it's cheaper, entirely portable, and doesn't need to be charged or plugged in. 🤯 You're going to be swimming in a RIVER of delicious, affordable cold brew with this gizmo. Amazon You can use this to brew hot coffee *and* cold brew by adding coffee grounds to the top portion, tamping it down, letting it steep, and pumping into a carafe full of hot or cold water. Promising review: "Simple to use and cheaper than that other brand. This is about the best tasting coffee I have ever made at home. Easy to clean. Sturdy. Portable." — Alex Bonick Get it from Amazon for $28.76. 8. A quick-drying top nail coat, because sometimes you just have to get the show on the road, nail polish situation be damned — this helps dry your wet nails within two minutes so you can get back to business (read: sticking your hand in a chip bag without fear). Promising review:"NEVER GETTING MY NAILS PROFESSIONALLY DONE AGAIN. I love having long nails. I do not like spending fifty bucks just to get them painted. I tried the gel polish, with gel top coat; I tried the gel system with the lamps; I tried every polish out there. My hands get washed hundreds of times daily. This stuff is unbelievable. It really works the way they say it does. I applied it about one or two minutes after finishing a second coat of color and within minutes it had bonded and set and my nails stay shiny and polished for over a week. That is not the full two weeks claimed, but I am unusually hard on my nails so over a week is AWESOME. I immediately ordered several more." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $6.60+ (available in three sizes and a two-pack). 9. A set of family-friendly pastel "unbreakable" deep plates perfect for anyone who needs to be practical, but doesn't want to sacrifice on prettiness. These chic plates are unexpectedly lightweight, making them easier for kids to use, but are still dishwasher-safe and microwave-safe for up to three minutes. Promising review: "These are microwaveable and light to carry. Love the colors. Wish they were available in one color only, but I can't complain. I primarily bought these for microwave purposes. But can be used for salads, hot soup, etc. Also, it's an in-between size like a medium. Just right for me." — M. Zolnosky Get a set of four from Amazon for $9.99 (also available as bowls!). 10. Oxo's Good Grips three-piece Pop container set so darn air tight that you'll want to give them all your favorite snacks *and* hot gossip, knowing nothing's getting through that airtight lock. Each of the containers also comes with a handy scoop that attaches to the bottom of the lid, making this an ideal option for baking supplies and loose snacks like cereal and nuts! Amazon Promising review: "These are wonderful containers to fill and store in your pantry, cupboard or on the counter. Easy to clean and hand dry. Keep the lid on and the air button down for the best freshness. They can stack too!" — Jamie Fingal Get it from Amazon for $39.95+ (also available in a five-piece set). 11. A set of reusable Gripstic bag sealers, which are sticks that clamp over open snack bags to make sure they're genuinely sealed and airtight. (We cannot risk letting our beloved Cheez-Its get stale!!) These also save a lot of space compared to regular chip clips and are safer, considering there isn't a spring that could either wear out or break on you in the middle of sealing something. 😬 Gripstic is a small business that specializes in reusable chip clips. Promising review: "I'm a stickler about stale chips and have always used those little snapping clips. I thought they worked pretty well, but they really don't compare to Gripstics. The snack that proved this the most was Pirate's Booty. If these are exposed to air for more than three minutes, they turn into styrofoam peanuts. I promise they're just as fresh as when you first open them with Gripstics. They're going to be my go-to chip clips moving forward." — Rachel Campbell Get a set of 24 from Amazon for $23.95 (available in five sets). 12. A Benzene-free, travel-friendly applicator of I Dew Care's dry shampoo powder so easy to use that you can just dab it on your hairline and rub it in for an instant, oil-absorbing refresh. Now your "no wash" days are a secret that you and your roots will never tell 👀. Check out a TikTok of the dry shampoo in action. Promising review: "Will be buying again!! This is a fantastic product. I have incredibly thin hair that gets very oily very easily. This is the first product that I've tried that actually works! I am so very happy!" — Katie_0_Baker Get it from Amazon for $12.59 (available brown, dark brown, blonde, and in multipacks and bundles). 13. A set of hair tie bracelets designed to look like *actual* jewelry, so you won't be kicking yourself when you realize you left a hair tie on your wrist for every photo. Promising review:"I love these! These add the cutest touch to any outfit. They make you feel better about wearing a hair tie on your wrist. And they function great as both a hair tie and a bracelet! Not too tight to wear as either. Love them!" — Tiara Scheurell Get a set of 20 from Amazon for $7.99 (available in eight styles). 14. A no-scrub weekly shower cleaner you can quite literally "set and forget" to maintain its cleanliness over time — once you apply it after a shower, you just have to wait 8–12 hours, and it'll quietly tackle the soap scum, grime, oils, mold, and mildew stains without any elbow grease from you. Promising review:"I saw this product on TikTok and decided to try it out for myself. The name doesn't lie — spray it on, shut the bathroom door, and in a few hours, the shower is 100 times cleaner. Usually I'll let it sit overnight, and by morning, the visible grime on the shower is gone, include soap scum. I'll usually let the shower water rinse the residue out, and then will take a bucket just to get everything off the shower walls. It is a bit slick if you try to get in the shower without rinsing the residue, but otherwise it's a worthy cleaning staple in my house." — Tara D. Get it from Amazon for $20.98+ (available in two scents and two sizes). 15. A "flossing toothbrush" with two layers of bristles — regular firm bristles, and longer ones that are 10 times thinner to clean deep in between your teeth and gums to mimic flossing. Reviewers love how deep the clean feels, and also how soft it is on sensitive teeth! Emma Lord/BuzzFeed 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. I use these and I love them! I used to use an electric one, 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. Get a two-pack from Amazon for $9.99. 16. A set of reviewer-beloved "Loops Quiet 2," aka the "ear plugs for people who hate ear plugs." These lightweight plugs are so subtle that people won't notice you wearing them, and are meticulously designed to muffle distracting, irritating, or overwhelming noise without completely blocking out the world around you. Reviewers love to wear them at the office or in noisy homes — this way they can still stay aware of your surroundings without getting overwhelmed by them. Promising review:"These earplugs are so good!! I had originally bought a completely different brand (because I was being cheap) and let me tell you, you get what you pay for. I found these Loop earplugs and decided to give them a try and I'm so glad that I did! They are so comfortable! Made from silicone so they are flexible and fit great. I've slept with them in all night without issues. The noise cancelling is fantastic! Now does it block everything? No, but I think that's a good thing for safety reasons. They do block my husband's chainsaw snoring and that is exactly what I needed them to do." — melanie98837 Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (available in seven colors; check out Loop's Amazon Storefront for more options related to concerts, offices, and parenting!). 17.

Amazon Kitchen Gizmos is a small business that specializes in kitchen accessories. Promising review:"I've owned this for about six months, and I couldn't imagine cooking without it. I hate strainers. They are bulky and fill up the dishwasher. I'm lazy, whatever. This strainer is a lifesaver. Clip it on your pan, strain, and voila! And it is so easy to clean. A little hot water and it's good to go for the next round. I highly recommend this gadget. It will retire your current strainer." — Viola Evens Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in seven colors). 20.

Nice and crispy outside, but the inside heated just right. I love that the bottom glass can be covered with the lid it comes with. They come with a metal plate you can put in the glass bottom part, and it actually fits into the lid, so it doesn't get lost. The glass makes a difference in the taste, too. It is a great product and well worth it." — Jennifer Get it from Amazon for $159.99 (available in three colors). 23.

This mini charger is designed to give you one full iPhone battery per charge, making it a lifesaver for busy humans, particularly ones who love traveling. Check out a TikTok of the charger in action. Promising review:"I used these several times for the past year, traveling for business and leisure. It is always a challenge to find an outlet at the airport since some airports do not offer a charging station. Using those types can also be a security risk. That's why I love using these portable chargers. They are lightweight and fit in my travel handbag/or small backpack pocket. The portable chargers take about 30–35 minutes to fully charge if dead. Once charged, they charge fast and hold a charge for many hours." — J Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in two colors). 24.

No sticky residue, and your hands feel completely hydrated and soft after each use. I'm especially impressed with this perk, considering most hand sanitizers leave your skin feel tight and dry.

This even comes with a built-in TSA-approved lock and USB/USB-C charging port! Promising review:"Lightweight and compact. This carryon is super sleek, stylish, and exactly what I was hoping for. The expandable part is helpful, really small without it but probably perfect for a short weekend trip. One thing I would say is don't try too hard to squeeze things down — if you decide to stuff it, you must keep it expanded. Love the built-in lock system." — Reina Get it from Amazon for $122.99+ (available in two colors). 26.

Just throw in some greens, a protein, a dressing, and toppings that make salad fun for you! We use ours several times per week, and they make it to both our jobs without spilling or leaking. I walk and ride public transit, so mine gets tossed around a bit. Several of my friends and coworkers have bought them after seeing mine!" — Heathiedoodle Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in eight colors). 27.

Eparé is a small business that specializes in kitchen and cleaning products for home use. Promising review: "Have been using these for a year now and absolutely pleased with replacing these for using paper towels.

A wireless charging desk and mousepad to make juicing up your phone and AirPods so thoughtlessly easy that you might literally just set them down and recharge them by accident.

The mouse works wonderfully on the pad. Pad feels sturdy and will last a long time. Ordered the medium, and thankfully, it worked out that it fit my setup area perfectly. Overall, great item to have for my workspace." — Ken Situ Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in nine colors and five sizes). 31.

Promising review: "I found these detachable pots and pans on a YouTube video. They are such a space saver for small kitchen. They can stack on top of each other, which only takes up a small corner of the cabinet. The spot protectors are so useful and neat that you won't scratch the pots. They are very easy to clean. Great quality that I've recommended to several friends." — Yuli Aoki Get it from Amazon for $59.99. 32.

I would highly recommend this product to everyone who wants to feel more organized and doesn't want to lose items in their fridge." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $25.99. 33. An expanding shower liner perfect for anyone whose tiny shower is trying to smother them. This helps give you some more elbow room so you're not getting into a wrestling match with plastic every morning. Promising review: "Wow! This is exactly what I was looking for! I have a tiny bathroom in an old apartment building with an untreated window that needs to be covered with a shower curtain inside my shower. E very time you'd shower, you would be attacked by curtains from both sides. That is until I purchased this curtain. It gives so much more room in the shower, like a curved shower rod, but without all that hardware and work associated with it. It's weighted enough so it doesn't move. I'm no longer attacked by my shower curtains. I 100% would purchase again." — Brittany Hopkins Get it from Amazon for $39.95 + (available in five styles). 34. A reviewer-beloved veggie chopper to make you feel like a golden god in your kitchen — this gadget julienne, chops, spiralizes, and slices vegetables in an instant and has a built-in storage container to hold the chopped veggies so you can pour them into a pan or dish without any mess. Amazon Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action. Fullstar is a small business established in 2017 that specializes in kitchen gadgets. Promising review:"Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food, and it has a generous container." — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $24.87 (available in multiple styles and five colors). 35. A self-cleaning broom and dust pan set designed with pet owners in mind — the bristle cleaner installed in the dust pan makes it *super* easy to dislodge pet hair into the dust pan so you're not sweeping the floor with it all jammed up in there. Promising review:"Excellent, sturdy broom which sweeps nicely. The unit stays standing up without a lot of effort; it just has to be balanced prope rly. I like the little thingies on the dustpan that clean off the broom. Also, when sweeping into it, you don't have to hold the dustpan, plus it is easy to empty because dustpan doesn't flop around. I feel somewhat silly saying it, but it is a pleasure to sweep. I'm going to buy a few as gifts to some friends because I like it so much." — DonnaMarie13 Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in six colors). 36. An internet-beloved OXO measuring cup with transparent measurements on the side *and* angled in the middle so you can see exactly how much you're measuring from a bird's-eye view. Amazon It also comes equipped with a soft grip handle and a deeply convenient angled nozzle, and is dishwasher-safe! Promising review:"Our old liquid measuring cups were beginning to get worn and very hard to read. I had seen these angled measuring cups before and wanted to give them a try, so I bought two (2-cup versions) to replace our existing cups. I've only gotten to use them a handful of times, but I can already tell you they are better than traditional measuring cups. In my opinion, this is the only way measuring cups should be made in the future." — SK Get it from Amazon for $10.95. 37.

Reviewers especially love it because you can use it several times on a walk, and it hooks neatly to leashes! Check out a TikTok of the DogBuddy scooper in action. DogBuddy is a small business specializing in pet care products including bowls, mats, and scoopers. Promising review:"I normally don't leave reviews but this is amazing! It's easy to use and saves so many dog bags if you're taking a number of dogs on a walk because you don't need to open a new bag for each poop. It also makes the whole process a lot less gross. I would 100% recommend this for dog walks and even picking up poop in the backyard. It holds a lot more than you'd think!" — Joslyn Cavitt Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in four colors and two sizes). Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.

Promising review: "I bought this because I have the outlandish idea that my refrigerator will look just like those on TikTok, but I am pleasantly surprised to find that it keeps my cold cuts fresher for much longer than expected. It's large enough to hold a pound or more of cold cuts or cheese, which is a bonus. The sealing technology is superb and strong. At one point, I almost could not open the container due to the seal being so airtight.

The new Pink Stuff "Sqeezy" sponge set, which is living up to its "miracle" catchphrase by helping reviewers with their toughest cleaning projects, like grimy pans, mildewed showers, and marked-up walls.

Promising review: "The 'abrasive sponge when cold' or 'squishy when hot' is an awesome feature for the type of scrubbing you want. The Pink Stuff with the sponge does wonders!

Oxo's new compact Brew Rapid Brewer, aka the answer to any money-conscious coffee lover's prayers — this version is not only cheaper and more portable than comparable models on the market, but WAY faster making cold brew without compromising on flavor. I'm talking five minutes as opposed to overnight, like other pitchers take — and it doesn't need to be charged or plugged in. 🤯 Amazon You can use this to brew hot coffee *and* cold brew by adding coffee grounds to the top portion, tamping it down, letting it steep, and pumping into a carafe full of hot or cold water.

Nice and crispy outside, but the inside heated just right. I love that the bottom glass can be covered with the lid it comes with. They come with a metal plate you can put in the glass bottom part, and it actually fits into the lid, so it doesn't get lost. The glass makes a difference in the taste, too. It is a great product and well worth it." — Jennifer Get it from Amazon for $159 (available in three colors). 8. An absorbent floral dish drying mat so lovely that you'll actually — gasp — look forward to doing the dishes? The "main character in a rom com" energy of this mat is too strong to resist. Promising review:"This mat is perfect. It absorbs water from washed dishes well and provides a protective buffer between dishes and our granite countertops. After use, you can hang the mat; it will dry out in minutes. The mat is both decorative and functional. This was a great purchase. There will be no more wet dish towels to contend with. I highly recommend this product." — Cambodian Nurse Get it from Amazon for $18.99 (available in six styles and three sizes). 9.

Big enough to hold plenty of grease without taking up a ton of space. I keep mine in the butter compartment of my fridge next to the butter. I poured the grease right from the pan, still very hot right into it, and popped the lid on and put it in the fridge. Next time I needed some grease, I scooped some out with a spoon, no muss no fuss. Much better than the glass jar I was using. My only warning is if you get it out when people are visiting keep an eye on it. It's so cute and so good at its job everyone will want one." — John Dollard Get it from Amazon for $15.99. 11.

Teeccino, a sleep-deprived coffee lover's savior — this caffeine-free, acid-free strong herbal blend steeps like regular tea, but somehow mimics the taste of coffee so brilliantly that you'll get all the flavor and satisfaction without the insomnia of a late-night cuppa. Teeccino is a small business that specializes in coffee-like herbal teas I love tea in the morning but I always want something that tastes strong and bitter to go with my dessert at night, but decaf coffee felt too risky, since there's still a bit of caffeine in it.

This cult-favorite glass cleaner is going to make your mirrors and windows so spotless you'll feel like you're in a museum. 1. An airtight Deli ProKeeper so beloved that it's gone viral on FridgeTok (if you know, you KNOW). Not only does this free up space and clutter in the fridge, but it keeps deli meat and cheese so fresh that you'll actually get your darn money's worth by preventing waste. Promising review: "I bought this because I have the outlandish idea that my refrigerator will look just like those on TikTok, but I am pleasantly surprised to find that it keeps my cold cuts fresher for much longer than expected. It's large enough to hold a pound or more of cold cuts or cheese, which is a bonus. The sealing technology is superb and strong. At one point, I almost could not open the container due to the seal being so air tight. Not only does this product look good in my fridge, but it is saving me money, so definitely a win-win from me." — IrishEyes Get it from Amazon for $21.95 (available in three styles). 2.

I highly recommend it!" — Joyce Hill Get it from Amazon for $19.98 (available in two styles). 3.

The new Pink Stuff "Sqeezy" sponge set, which is living up to its "miracle" catchphrase by helping reviewers with their toughest cleaning projects, like grimy pans, mildewed showers, and marked-up walls. If you aren't already in the cult of Pink Stuff cleaning paste, it's so good at its job that reviewers call it " gold in a jar" and " witchcraft." Promising review: "The 'abrasive sponge when cold' or 'squishy when hot' is an awesome feature for the type of scrubbing you want. The Pink Stuff with the sponge does wonders!

Promising review:"Okay people, being a mama of littles, you know you're going to need a humidifier. It's a necessity. I got one previously because of an already sick kid, and I loathed it! Every time I turned around it was molding and impossible to clean well. Let me get my Southern out and say OMG y'all! This is IT! Quiet, night-light option, space-saving, and can hold water for several sessions at night. I was always refilling my junky one, but this one holds a ton and barely takes up any additional space. BUT ... the real MVP function of this humidifier is the ease of cleaning. There are quite a few pieces, but the design is on point, and cleaning this thing was NOT a hassle. I didn't know it was possible! I thought it was a pipe dream." — Andrea Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in three colors and two sizes). 7.

Dare you not to buy a *fleet* of these once everyone in the fam starts fighting for their Comfy Chair Time. Promising review: "This recliner is an absolute dream come true! The fabric is incredibly soft, and the lumbar support is a game-changer for my back. But the real star of the show is the massage feature. It's like having a personal masseuse on call 24/7. The various settings allow me to customize the intensity and target specific areas, melting away tension and stress after a long day. I also appreciate the recliner's sleek and modern design. It fits perfectly in my living room without being bulky or obtrusive.

Nice and crispy outside, but the inside heated just right. I love that the bottom glass can be covered with the lid it comes with.

I LOVE the way they look, but inevitably (even though I sanded and prepped), I'll get little chips in the paint. These touch up pens stay in my junk drawer full of paint at all times. T he cap makes it so it never dries out and stays super clean. But I'm able to grab them any time and just touch things up so my cabinets ALWAYS look fresh." — Claire Flores Get it from Amazon for $24.99. 31. A set of faux coffee table books inspired by the iconic (and verrrry expensive) Assouline travel series, except with a ~secret~ — these all open with a magnetic lid to become storage compartments. Now you can either declutter your coffee table by stashing your knick knacks, or hide your valuables by putting these books on a shelf! Amazon Promising review: "The color of these books is actually more vivid and beautiful in person. I'm thrilled with how it looks on the shelf — plus, it's a very good hiding spot. I would 100% recommend these for anyone looking to add color to your home." — elishiva Get a set of four from Amazon for $22.79. 32. A pillow-shaking alarm clock that uses a "shaker" mode to gently vibrate under your pillow to wake you up — perfect for someone who doesn't respond as well to noise, or doesn't like how jarring it is to wake to an alarm. THAT SAID, this also features an option for an alarm so loud that they call it a "sonic bomb," so you can use that as extra wake-up insurance if you need it! Sonic Alert is a small business that specializes in alarm clocks. Get it from Amazon for $41.99 (available in six colors). 33. An expanding shower liner perfect for anyone whose tiny shower is trying to smother them. This helps give you some more elbow room so you're not getting into a wrestling match with plastic every morning. Promising review: "Wow! This is exactly what I was looking for! I have a tiny bathroom in an old apartment building with an untreated window that needs to be covered with a shower curtain inside my shower. E very time you'd shower, you would be attacked by curtains from both sides. That is until I purchased this curtain. It gives so much more room in the shower, like a curved shower rod, but without all that hardware and work associated with it. It's weighted enough so it doesn't move. I'm no longer attacked by my shower curtains. I 100% would purchase again." — Brittany Hopkins Get it from Amazon for $39.95 + (available in six styles).
