1. A box of cleaning K-Cups that'll get rid of residue in your machine and prevent flavors from transferring in just one cycle. Or have fun descaling it several times. Your choice!
Promising review: "Thought I was having problems with my machine. Used two cups to flush the entire coffee maker out and it started working like new. Totally satisfied!" —Dara Pazooki
Get a box of six pods from Amazon for $9.95.
2. A two-tier sliding shelf for anyone who has cabinets in their home that are to absolutely never be opened for fear of triggering an avalanche of junk. These durable baskets are up to the task of corralling all the random bits and bobs you own, so every bit of storage space is usable.
Promising review: "Very satisfied, will buy again! Fits perfectly under my kitchen sink, contemplating getting a second one. Super easy set up, nice little dividers to separate items, and really keeps everything organized and looking clean. I put my heavier products in the bottom drawer to stabilize the unit because it is a teeny bit flimsy and moves when I pull out the drawers. That's not a deal breaker though, I still think it's worth what I paid." —JPro729
Get it from Amazon for $18.39+ (available in four colors).
3. A "flossing toothbrush" because it has two types of bristles: flossing bristles that are 10 times thinner to really get into the grooves between your teeth and regular firm bristles that are designed to last longer than the nylon bristles your current toothbrush probably has. Reviewers say it's gentle yet effective, even on sensitive teeth!
Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS.
Promising review: "Pleasantly surprised and satisfied. It's soft bristled and cleans thoroughly. The brushes aren't as thick or rough like drugstore toothbrushes, and they feel as if they're getting into tight corners. I was DEFINITELY surprised at how well-made this toothbrush is. I don't often go back to the same product 'cause I prefer to 'test the waters' with different brands, but this is going to be a steady constant for me." —Natalie

4. An adorable octopus-shaped blackhead remover to exfoliate your skin while pulling out whiteheads, blackheads, and other pore-clogging yuckies.
Promising reviews: "Seems to really get blackheads. Very satisfied!" —Amazon Customer
After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like myself." —LuckLocust
Get it from Amazon for $12.50.
5. An immunity-boosting allergy supplement so dogs with skin sensitivities can just exist without scratching themselves until they bleed. These soft chews deliver a dose of probiotics and other nutrients to help improve immune function, aide digestion, promote healthy skin, and add shine to a dog's coat.
Promising review: "About a year ago my dog started with an itch that drove her nuts. She was constantly biting and scratching. It was all she could do 24/7! She also began to get a few hot spots. Almost two weeks after I started giving here these treats she was considerably less itchy. A month after her hot spots were gone and her hair had grown back! We have run out due to unforeseen setbacks. She hasn't had them in about a week now and is back to constantly biting and scratching! Definitely buying more ASAP! They are very soft and easy for her to chew. She's considered a senior dog now so something soft was a must. These definitely work for both me and her. Couldn't be more satisfied with how well they have helped!!" —Amanda B.

6. Some cooling arm sleeves if you're looking for protection from the sun and other irritants, or you need to cover up a tattoo. These lightweight sleeves are made of a stretchy, breathable, and moisture-wicking material that won't dig into your arms or constrict your movement.
Promising review: "I’m a technologist for a high end car company in a car dealership customer facing and we can’t show our tattoos while working. As summer is upon us, I like to wear short sleeves as it gets hot. And I didn’t know some sleeves wear cooling before I found yours! I am 300% satisfied!! Thank you! 🙌🏻" — Rachel Paquin
Get a pair from Amazon for $10.99+ (available in nine colors and in larger packs).
7. A set of oven liners that'll catch crumbs before they can permanently attach themselves to your oven and create a big freaking mess you'll spend hours cleaning. Raise your hand if you hate cleaning your oven. Great. Now take that same hand and click the "add to cart" button.
Promising review: "Very satisfied. These oven liners came right on time. I trimmed a small amount, and now it fits just perfectly in my gas range. It helps me to keep everything clean in my oven. I recommend this product highly." —Catherine Golden
Get a set of three from Amazon for $11.99.
8. A reparative K-beauty snail mucin essence for rejuvenating your face, lightening hyperpigmentation, and prepping your skin so it's ready to drink up all the benefits of your moisturizer.
Promising review: "Satisfied customer. I saw this advertised on TikTok and although I was a little grossed out about the snail part lol, I decided to give it a try. I am glad I did. It definitely left my skin feeling soft and smooth. I like that it does not have a scent. I [thought] it would be sticky but it isn’t and it dries quickly. I apply this to damp skin to lock in moisture then follow up with a good moisturizer in the morning and before bed, and I am very pleased with the results. My skin never felt softer and my makeup applies very nicely. Will be a repeat buyer." —Christina
Get it from Amazon for $19.71.
9. A beloved tightening cream because the 20,000+ reviewers who rated it 5 stars is all the proof you need. It's infused with caffeine, coconut oil, and guarana extract to firm, smooth, and add shimmer to the skin. Plus the vanilla, salted caramel, and pistachio scent is better than any perfume out there.
Promising review: "I bought this product because I have dead skin bumps on my booty and down the back of my thighs and thought this product would help. It helps a lot when I exfoliate and then apply the product before bed. It takes a few days in a row to really make a difference but it's the first think that has actually helped. Very moisturizing, smells very good. I am satisfied with this product." —Dean
Get it from Amazon for $22+ (available in two sizes).
10. A shoe stretch spray to soften too-tight boots, loafers, sandals, gloves, and more. You paid good money for those super cute leather boots and by golly you're going to get them on your feet, muscular calves be damned.
My colleague Amanda Davis swears by this spray. Check out her Foot Matters Shoe Stretch spray review (#46) for more deets!
Promising review: " I received a pair of great boots as a gift, but was completely dismayed when I could not zipper them up over my calf. I had about 1.5 inches at the top of the zipper where I could not close it. I went to return them for wide calf version however, on those…the calf was way too big. I kept the narrow calf boots and use the spray and I am completely satisfied and excited. Great product." —Azriel
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
11. A convertible maxi dress so you can show up to every wedding you were invited to in a "different" dress without, y'know, actually spending $$$ on a bunch of new gowns. Also! It's a great bridesmaids dress option they'll actually be able to wear to other events and weddings.
Promising review: "The dress has a good movement to it. The weight of the material is nice with a soft texture. The color I choose was gray, and though it might not look exactly like the color in the photo online, it's still a nice dark gray with a sheen that makes it look elegant. I'm 5'8" tall and ordered an XL; the length hits the top of my feet. I plan on wearing this dress as a bridesmaids dress for an upcoming wedding and the quality is good enough for such an occasion. All in all I'm very satisfied with this dress, it's a pretty dress for a low price." —KC
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in 15 colors and women's sizes S–XL).
12. A peel-and-stick puzzle saver sheets if you picked up puzzles as a quarantine hobby and never stopped. Don't you hate finishing a puzzle and then not having a good way to save it? Enter: these genius sheets, which adhere to the back of your puzzle so it stays together and can properly framed, hung, and enjoyed.
Promising review: "So much better than liquid glue. I had one 2000-piece and two 500-piece finished puzzles sitting around waiting to be mounted. I purchased a few packs of the puzzle saver adhesive to try it out and I’m very satisfied with the result. The adhesive sheets are great quality and the glue is strong. The instructions recommend to give it two hours to bond, but I ended up leaving it overnight and it bonded perfectly. I will purchase this product again and would recommend it to anyone." —Alex
Get six adhesive sheets from Amazon for $6.89.
13. A plant-based stainless steel cleaner and polish that'll help you conquer the very time-consuming task of wiping down all the appliances in your kitchen. Reviewers say it helps keep your surfaces smudge free for longer, meaning less cleaning for you!
Therapy Clean is a family-owned small business based in Dover, New Hampshire.
Promising review: "I am absolutely satisfied with this product and wish that I had bought it sooner. I have owned a dishwasher with a stainless steel door for about two years now. I've kept it clean by wiping the handle area everyday and the entire door regularly (though less often), but I just could not get rid of water marks no matter what I did. I expected to have to make some efforts even with this product, but I was wrong — all I did was to spray and wipe, and all the marks were gone. I didn't bother buffing it with a towel because it already looked great. One spray was more than enough to cover the entire door, so this product will last me for a long time. I used it on the sides of the trash can and it worked equally well." —Aya
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
14. A teeth-whitening pen for brightening your smile without the hassle of strips that slip and slide all over your teeth. You can use each pen ~20 times and should expect your teeth to lighten 4–8 shades.
Promising review: "First, this is soooo affordable, especially compared to whitening strips. I've had five uses and barely made a dent in one tube, so comparing that to five whitening strips that are like $1.50 each there's a pretty drastic difference. After five uses, I'm definitely seeing a difference. I also appreciate how much easier it is to use than whitening strips. Overall, I'm very satisfied so far and will keep using it." —Talia
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $19.99.
15. An EltaMD clear sunscreen because I'm genuinely surprised there are still some bottles in stock after reading some of the 31,000 5-star reviews. Folks swear this lightweight sunscreen is an absolute dream for oily skin, mature skin, acne-prone skin, sensitive skin, just...skin... And to top it all off, it won't leave a white cast.
Promising review: "I have tried many inexpensive and expensive sunscreens and have never seemed to be satisfied. I like my sunscreen to melt into my skin and feel like I am not wearing anything. I dislike the feeling of thick sunscreens on my face that make me oily, have a scent, and or leave a white cast. Before making Elta MD my go-to sunscreen, I researched extensively. I ensured my next sunscreen would not leave a white cast, clog my pores, or make me oily. I love this sunscreen and have been a fan of it for the past few years. I apply a generous amount to my face and neck every morning before leaving my house. I am extremely satisfied with this sunscreen and will continue to recommend it to others and purchase it myself." —selene gomez
Get it from Amazon for $41.
16. A decorative trivet to protect your table and counter from hot pots and pans without being a total eyesore. It can handle temps as hot as 300 degrees so go ahead and set that hot cast-iron on top of it instead of rooting around in your drawer in a panic for a pot holder.
Promising review: "I like this product very much. It did just what I wanted it to do. I have very little kitchen space so used a long dresser to add much needed counter space for my small appliances. Very satisfied with this and plan to purchase another one." —Martha Jane Allen
Get it from Amazon for $21.97+ (available in 15 colors).
17. A compact under-desk bike so you can spin while building spreadsheets, answering emails, and even taking conference calls. It offers different resistance levels and is a great way to get in a workout during your regular 9–5.
It works with desks as low as 27 inches. If you're tall or you have long legs, you can still use it while working from the couch.
Promising review: "Great quality and extremely satisfied. It was easy to put together. I have it under my desk at work and the height is just perfect where as I do not bang my knees while pedaling. the quality is good and strong and they seemingly thought of everything possible while constructing this. Everyone at my work loves it and many decided to buy one for themselves, as it is hard to get away from your desk during the day for exercise, especially during the winter months. I would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone. You actually sit while doing your work and you forget you are even exercising." —Hwdfeb
Get it from Amazon for $188.74+ (available in four colors).
18. A Better Life tile and tub cleaner if you're all out of elbow grease but your bathroom's looking a little scummy. Spray this on tubs, tile, grout, fixtures, shower doors, shower walls, shower curtains, toilets, and sinks, let it sit for 15 minutes, and then the soap scum, mildew, mold, hard water stains, dried toothpaste, and spilled makeup should wipe off with little effort.
Promising review: "Had hard water and other stains built up from months of being in quarantine. Sprayed this on and just using paper towel was able to clear out all the stains! Was awesome. Didn't have much of a smell either. Very satisfied." —Ed Fernandez
Get it from Amazon for $7.49.
19. A nail concealer that'll subtly hide yellowing and staining on your nails.
Promising reviews: "Highly impressed and satisfied with purchase. I've been a nail biter my entire life. I recently stopped biting a little over three months ago, and while I've been pleased overall with the growth, I've found that my natural nails have many imperfections. For instance, I have splinter hemorrhages, as well as white horizontal lines (aka Beau's lines) on every single nail on all 10 fingers, and the tips are transparent. But this polish literally disguises all of that. I'm so so grateful to have found it." —Kourtnee amos
Get it from Amazon for $20 (available in four shades).
20. A set of NoNo Brackets for folks who want to upgrade their window situation (raise your hand if you hate your vertical blinds) without having to drill any new holes (i.e. they're also great for renters). These attach directly to your current curtain rod so setup is easy peasy lemon squeezy.
Promising review: "Works perfectly as described. I'm really satisfied with this Nono brackets for my windows, fit pretty well and easy to install 👌🏽. Highly recommend this product." —Amazon Customer
Get a set of two from Amazon for $14.95 (available in a lot of colors and pack sizes).
21. A cooktop cleaner because you want a pristine kitchen but your messy roommate's selective amnesia means they don't remember all the apartment meetings you've had about cleaning up after yourselves. This kit comes with a bottle of cleaner, a sponge, and a scraper — everything you need short of a new roommate.
22. A fungal nail renewal pen to help reduce discoloration and thickness, as well as restore moisture to peeling brittle nails.
Promising review: "I have suffered from toenail fungus for over 20 years. I never knew there was a product like this was out there. I was realistic not to expect it to fix 20 years of damage in a week however, by the end of the week I did notice a difference. I'm in third week and my toenails have never looked this good. I still have a little ways to go, but I have no doubt now that this will not fix it. Very satisfied. Highly recommended." —Bradford Scott
Get it from Amazon for $17.37.
23. A portable heating pad with three massage modes so you can potentially find relief on the go (reviewers with endometriosis rave about this gadget). And — BAM! — you can also flip it around and use it for your back pain.
If you deal with painful cramps or back pain, you should check with your doctor before using this.
Promising review: "So far, this product has worked wonders for my cramps! I ordered and received this product yesterday, and I am super happy with the outcome. I like the vibration options, but I’m perfectly fine with just the heat. The temperature can get pretty high, so I would suggest not to apply it directly to the skin. Overall, I am satisfied with my purchase and will certainly recommend to friends and family!" —Jasmine
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in 11 colors).
24. The most adorable Squishmallow pet beds if you're OK with doing absolutely nothing but taking photos of your furry friend curled up in their new frog-, shark-, octopus-, or pineapple-shaped bed.
Promising review: "This is my first and only Squishmallow product and honestly I love it! It is as soft as expected from the brand, but also I'm very impressed with how sturdy the bottom is. Most of the bottom of my dogs's beds are made of fabric, but the bottom of this bed is pretty firm and tough. I'm no dog-bed expert but from a loving dog-parent, I'm very satisfied." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $28.75+ (available in four sizes and four shapes).
25. A Luminoodle backlight kit for monitors that can help improve contrast of on-screen images and may help reduce eye strain if you like to watch TV or play games on a console or PC in near darkness.
Promising review: "This is my first bias lighting and I honestly wasn't expecting this level of improvement. The contrast when this light strip is on gets SO much better that it makes my TV feel almost like an OLED panel. Gone are those blotchy blacks during dark scenes when watching in a dark room. Blacks are inky and colors pop even more. I have a Samsung QLED Q60T, which has a great native contrast and color gamut but this takes it to a whole 'nother level. Very satisfied with the product and quality of materials." —Jefry Echavarria
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in 10 colors/sizes).
26. A 15-piece set of airtight food containers for helping you achieve a pantry that looks a professional organized it. Aren't you tired of buying boxes of spaghetti only to realize you had an unopened box shoved in the back of your cupboard? This'll help you figure out what you do and don't have at a glance.
Promising review: "I am very satisfied with this product. I’m in love with how it looks in my kitchen; it’s so much more organized than it was before and I can see everything that's in them. I recommend this product if what you want is an organized, neat, and clean-looking kitchen, and I love how it’s so airtight to keep pesky bugs away in the summer." —BM500
Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in three colors).
27. Strap Gummy, a silicone strip that adheres to the underside of your bag straps because you're tired of your new purse slipping and sliding off your shoulders.
Promising review: "I bought these to keep my laptop bag strap from slipping off my shoulder, particularly when I'm wearing a coat. The leather strap on my laptop bag kept slipping off my shoulder, so I was looking for something unobtrusive to solve the problem. At first I tried some different leather creams or saddle soap, but nothing gave the leather strap the sticking power. The large strap gummy from this kit fit the bill perfectly. It blends in quite well and has maintained its 'grippiness' for several months now. It does a great job of keeping my laptop bag firmly planted on my shoulder, even when leaning over. I'm a very satisfied customer." —Skpublic
