Promising review: "This 'couch' is wonderful — exactly what we had been looking for. The covers are super soft and the color is gorgeous. We have built several different forts and tunnels so far and the kids love it! We had a tiny problem with one of the arches but customer service took care of it. I would definitely buy from this company again." —Chris & Charley
Get it from Amazon for $196.99 (available in seven colors).

5. A Shark Tank favorite toilet paper spray that'll transform standard toilet paper into septic-safe flushable wipes. This eco-friendly option is gonna be a great way to limit the disposable wipe/packaging waste in your home, while making sure your family stays feeling fresh.
Promising review: "As a long-time customer (and a proud owner of certain gastrointestinal issues) I can say that this toilet paper spray makes wet wipes obsolete. The scents are all great, though my personal favorites are the Rustic and the Coconut Amber. All it takes is 4–6 sprays onto the toilet paper to get the benefit of the product.
Their dedication to the environment is apparent, and I too am proud of the amount of plastic packaging and nondegradable wipes I've kept out of the sewer and plumbing systems. I kept all previous travel-sized bottles and simply purchase their refill bottles for reuse." —Riggatony
Get it from Amazon for $8.95+ (available in three sizes and six scents).

Promising review: "My husband got this shirt for Christmas and it is beyond the best gift you can get a new dad. He wears it everywhere he can. Everyone that sees him wearing it is in awe, even the college guy students at basketball games. It is a great quality shirt, with thick material that doesn’t shrink. Our daughter fits perfectly in it – we started using it when she was 8.5lbs and she is not yet over 10lbs and still fits perfectly. Right when we put her in it, she is completely calm and falls asleep every time!" —Jessica C.
Get it from Lalabu for $84.95 (available in sizes S–2XL and five colors).
8. An engraved label switch plate cover sure to look surprisingly snazzy compared to stick-on labels *and* help your guests (and let's be honest, yourself) know which identical switch is which.

10. An outdoor daybed with a retractable canopy that'll keep you nice and cool – and sunburn-free! This'll be a downright dreamy nap spot *and* it divides into a super useful seating area when you have folks over.
Promising review: "Took about two hours total with one person — everything was included (a couple of extra screws helped out). Assembly instructions were visual and easy to understand. Had to reverse the front canopy piece after assembly, but their video tells you how to determine if it's backwards. Once I had it assembled, my wife promptly took a two-hour nap on it and said it was great — worth every penny. Make sure you purchase a weather cover for it, and it'll give you long-lasting satisfaction!" —Joseph Vivona

Promising review: "Good quality and lightweight. Design makes it very easy to carry, and I find it easier than the average cooler. The handle is nice and high and wide so the rest of it is not bumping up against your leg. And once you lift up the lid which turns into a table it's sturdy enough to actually use for setting drinks on without worry. Exceeded expectations." —April Ford
Get it from Amazon for $75.99.
13. A Porter Seal-Tight glass container for folks who think every aspect of life should be aesthetic. These glass containers are microwave and dishwasher safe, plus the darling design is a great way for making sure your coworkers know not to touch *your* lunch when digging through the break room refrigerator. Their paper bags have got nothing on these.
These are also microwave- and dishwasher-safe.
Promising review: "I saw these containers for the first time on one of those aesthetically pleasing TikToks. I thought to myself, 'I need these to be my best organized self.; When I came to Amazon and saw how much they were, I was appalled. Because, quite frankly, why would I spend that much on ONE little container? I was so curious as to why it was so expensive, I went ahead and bought one to see what all of the fuss was about. When I got the package, and took that sleek heavy duty bad boy out, I knew immediately why it was on the higher side. It’s sleek, durable, adorable, and excellent quality. It’s microwave safe, which is nice. It’s also dishwasher safe, which is even nicer. I realized that I do, in fact, need these in my life. I plan on purchasing more of them and I definitely recommend giving them a try!" —Ally

Promising review: "This fan went way above and beyond my expectations. I bought two of these for our back patio. Disclaimer: we did not install them but the electrician had them and the wall remote installed in less than thirty minutes. The air temperature is ten degrees less than outside the patio with these fans. I barely hear them running. They are a gorgeous matte black and I love the style." —Jenni

Check out a TikTok of the Door-Doc in action.
Door-Doc is a small business specializing in home laundry solutions.
Promising review: "I’d never had any issues with mold or any nastiness accruing inside my washer, until I did. I read a bunch of reviews and convinced myself I didn’t need such an item — after all, I could just prop the door open after every wash. The thing is, the way the washer is positioned in the laundry room, I’d hit the washer door every time I went in there. I gave in and made the purchase. Sooooo worth it! Easy to maneuver around and it’s a sturdy little gadget. Highly recommend!!!" —painter Jane

YouCopia is a woman-owned small business that specializes in home storage solutions.
Promising review: "Here it is! The best egg container on Amazon! How can I say that? Easy! Engineering! The slight tilt angle on the bottom of the container that the egg drawer sits on forces eggs to lightly roll forward, keeping all your eggs in the front, and never in the back, where you don't need them. It's super easy to use, so easy to clean, comes apart and can hold a full can organizer on top without issue, so no issues with sturdiness. It can easily hold 14 large size eggs. Easily one of my favorite purchases." —Karingan
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in two styles).

Promising review: "After I had my first child almost a year ago, I stopped getting acrylic nails because I couldn't get him out of his car seat without struggling or breaking a nail. I’d have to get them as an overlay or extra short. But I saw this product on TikTok and had to try it out, and OMG!! It works! It took me a while to figure out the best angle to get him out with it, but once I did, I went to the nail shop expeditiously!! LOL, if you’ve been thinking about this for a while, GET IT! It’s worth it!" —Tora318

Promising review: "I got these to make ice cubes that I could fit into hot water bottles to make 'cold water bottles.' I'm in the big heat wave and it's been over 100 every day for the last week, with no sign of it letting up any time soon. These are quick and easy and the cold water bottles have been the only thing helping me sleep in a room anywhere between 80–90 degrees at night. I love the lids! It makes my ice trays easy to stack and more secure. I wish all ice trays came with lids like this!" —AJ Stark

Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in three colors).

Promising review: "We recently moved to a beach area, and we are constantly there. This item has changed our entire lives! It lasts decently long (depending on how much you use it), it smells super good (not at all like baby powder), and it's super effective. It has saved me from vacuuming my car at least 1–2 times a week. And I even use it on my dogs paws and bellies to make sure they're taken care of too. I will definitely be buying the refill & another baggie to have exclusively in the car." —Gabbs Uresti
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
24. A drink cover scrunchie (from Shark Tank!) to add a safety measure at a bar or club, discouraging someone from spiking your drink. Wear it like a scrunchie in your hair or on your wrist, then just slide out the cover and place it over the top of your glass. It even has a straw hole built in!

Promising review: "I would give these 1000000 stars if I could. They’re a bit difficult to put on with one hand but that’s my only complaint. These are genius and gave us so much peace of mind. Would recommend to literally everyone." —Alex K.

It has worked perfectly following the instructions for use. It is very durable, does not collect fingerprints, get sticky or lose its chill for hours. Cleaning this bowl is easy and it doesn't scratch, or collect smells.) My neighbor uses a similar bowl she paid $75 for at a retail store, this one looks and performs as good as hers.

I don't know what it is about the timer, but having it beside me has worked like a talisman. As long as it's in view I find it very easy to stay focused and stay on track.

Promising review: "This specific printer is lightweight but very sturdy. The app is super easy to use; it's got a media library that has layouts and other clipart styles. The printer is also relatively quiet and I have not had any issues with loading the paper straight, you just have to be dedicated to inserting the paper. Do not be super gentle with the paper or it will print on the paper crooked. Customer support is awesome and the quality if nice and worth the price, in my opinion. The paper, as stated in other reviews, is costly however I think not paying for ink evens it out." —Kapizanami
