Promising review: "My puppy got tangled in her leash, car seat safety clip, harness clip, and seat belt. The release buckles could not even release because it was twisted so tightly. I knew I had to cut her free, it was such a relief when it hit me I had the seat belt cutter under the seat. I never thought I would use it, but so glad I had it today (pictured above)." —Elizabeth

Promising review: "These things are awesome. Not only are they attractive and reasonably priced, but are so easy to put on and they stay on the rack. Most important, I find they help to protect your arm when reaching into the oven from getting any bad burns. Highly recommend these, I'm so happy with them I'm buying a set for my mom and daughters-in-law." —Sandi

Promising review: "Oh, how I love this laundry guard! I have very little counter space in my laundry room and this allows me to use all that space on top of the washer and dryer for folding clothes. No more fishing socks and underwear from behind the machines! I love it and so does everyone else that visits and sees it for the first time. The magnets hold it in place very well. There is not a lot of shifting unless I throw something large and heavy up there but it's an easy adjustment to get it back in place. Good quality, not flimsy at all. I highly recommend this product." —Christa

Promising review: "I picked this up because my heart could no longer take the stress of watching our 11-year-old slice bagels (while multitasking with screens and whatnot) with a serrated bread knife. I was going to have a heart attack and she was going to slice into her hand so...I had high hopes and, regardless of the overwhelmingly positive reviews, some concerns about how well this would work. My concerns were unwarranted. This not-so-little little device slices through every single bagel, every single time (and my kid goes through kicks where she'll eat two or three each day). I no longer worry about serious cuts even though the (covered) blade on this thing is SHARP! Only word of advice, like other reviewers, slice (press down) slowly so as not to squash softer bagels. Additionally, this thing slices so cleanly that there are no crumbs to speak of. I'm quite happy with this purchase. This thing now has a permanent place next to the toaster on our counter. I highly recommend it." —Christopher RS

Promising review: "These are the same quality wipes I buy from professional only supply stores. They're my absolute favorite for getting dark color from around my clients hairline/ears. The trick is to wipe it off before it dries. It's great that these are disposable as well." —Jason

Get a pack of 100 from Amazon for $9.97.

Promising review: "I love this style. It’s warm but doesn’t overheat and it fits perfectly so my daughter's face is right at the opening. It doesn’t get in the way of the car seat handle. The only negative I found for me is that the back is longer so it can sometimes get in the way of the latch for the base in my car. I have a Grayco click connect 35 but it’s not enough to make you stop using it. I actually wish I ordered this with my first child. I have received several compliments on this cover." —Jacquelyn

Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in four colors).

Promising review: "I ordered these silicone gap covers to keep debris from falling in between our kitchen appliances and the counters. The thing that sold me was when I read a review on here that stated that they were able to use it for the gap between the stove and fridge. I have the same setup in my apartment. Countertop on one side of the stove and fridge on the other. The silicone sticks very well to the fridge, stove, and counter. It doesn’t move around very easily, which is a good thing. Just make sure you place it with the wider side of the strip towards the counter as shown in the picture." —Kevin B.

Get two from Amazon for $10.95+ (available in two sizes and three colors).

Promising review: "This is easy to set up, sturdy, and saves counter space! I'm so happy with this purchase." —Sun Family

Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in two colors).

Promising review: "I was sooo skeptical and was confused about how they’d work but the gel solidifies and with every flush, suds wash through with the water and it really makes a fresh difference. Also the scent is light but really nice and fresh! I recommend these 100%! They’re super interesting but they do the job." —Janet

Get six stamps from Amazon for $4.89.

Promising review: "I love these beautiful glasses. They are amazing. These glasses are just the right weight and are easy to hold and just look so pretty!" —EJK

Promising review: "I love this lighter and will buy it as a gift for MANY MANY people. What a fabulous gift this makes with a small candle and a special message! I keep two of them at home in different parts of the house. Just using it is FUN! The packaging is classy/classic and amazing. The shipping was prompt and the lighters arrived in perfect condition for my use. You will NOT be disappointed." —Sbarabara

And if you're looking for a great duvet to fill this cover, here's a hypoallergenic option that reviewers love!

Promising review: "I have been looking for a terracotta jersey knit duvet cover forever and took a chance with this one. The color is great, a dark terra-cotta/rust color. It’s soft, but if I had to be nit-picky it isn’t as soft as other jersey knit fabrics I have felt. Shipping was surprisingly fast and the size was perfect for my queen bed. Overall I am happy with my purchase." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $63.01+ (available in three sizes and 31 colors).

P.S. these are cordless and only require a tap at the top to turn on, so you can turn it on and off even if your hands are covered in dish soap or batter. Brilliant.

Promising review: "These look just as pictured! The top is white and a hard plastic which makes it easy to clean. Each charge lasts at least 12 hours." —Robin

Promising review: "This is the perfect throw for summer nights as it is lightweight. Yet since it is muslin it will adjust to the climate so I'm sure it will be so cozy during the winter time. It's beautiful and so soft and now I don't have to steal my son's blankets! It is so soft, cuddly, and beautiful." —A&E

Get it from Amazon for $34.89+ (available in five sizes/styes and 10 colors).

Promising review: "We recently had the inside of our garage finished, which meant we could no longer hang stuff on the wall. We had to find something to hold things. We have dozens of Rubbermaid products around the house, from shelf liners to laundry basket and hamper. It arrived in a couple of days. My wife assembled it in a few minutes and loaded it up with the shovel, rake, broom and whatnot. It's perfect. It may not be the pretties thing in the garage but it does what it was make for. I would we recommend this to others, you bet." —Edward L. Piltch

Get it with casters from Amazon for $36.66+ (available in two sizes).

This spiffy small business is owned by artist and mother, Lisa Rupp and located in Medford, Oregon.

Get it from Dilly Dally for $26 (available in multiple colors).

Promising review: "These are so helpful if your fridge is cluttered. I bought these for my mom who is an extremely cluttered person. I love her to death, but she is not an organized person. Her fridge used to look wild. There would be food piled on top of food, and small jars and containers EVERYWHERE. I bought her these to help her organize everything. Now she can see what she has and everything has a place. Thank you for making something like this to help those that are so cluttered." —MioRioZio

Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in four colors and two set sizes).

I use this in my kitchen! I have to admit...it hasn't exaaactly helped with organization. What it *has* done is created a neat and orderly spot for my utensils...opening up a ton of extra drawer space for my unruly stash of pens, bouillon cubes, drink flavor packets, and the like. Long story short — I recommend this for tidy and messy folks alike!

Promising review: "We were short on storage and drawer space and this worked perfectly for our tiny drawer!" —Angela McMichael

This holds up to 36 cans!

Promising review: "We have a storage cabinet in our garage that I like to keep stocked with nonperishable food since we never know when we'll end up on a two-week quarantine these days. I was having a hard time keeping up with what we had and it was just a jumbled mess. My rack came today and it's so much more organized. It's super sturdy and it only took a couple of minutes to put together. I filled it up and I was able fit 44 cans since some are tiny... 5 stars!" —Kimberly C.

Promising review: "Incredible product!!! Buy it! This rainfall showerhead gives me the best showers of my life." —Rivka Polanksy

Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in three sizes and three colors).

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 sweep 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." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $84.98+ (available in seven colors).

Promising review: "I was hesitant to get this one originally, I was not sure if it would be overkill or too big. I am soooo glad I took the plunge and bought it. I work from home and sometimes I just need a little background noise. It was super easy to set up and re-linked everything from my original Echo. It was easy to link Hulu, Netflix, and YouTube Premium. Your Amazon Prime account is automatically linked. In the mornings I ask Alexa to start my day and she tells me the current weather, some history tidbit, the news, current traffic and weather forecast for the day. When playing Amazon Music you get an option to see the lyrics, which is great when your other half sings the words wrong, lol. I chose to purchase the wall bracket from a small business owner due to the flexibility it provided. I can move the Echo out away from the wall, turn it while cooking to see recipes, view it while working at my desk or just tuck it back tight to the wall when I want it out of the way. This bracket also allows full tilt options as well as changing from horizontal to vertical. I have full use of my Echo Show 15 and again so pleased that I purchased it. So far no glitches, fingers crossed." —S. M. Paulson

Promising review: "I need more than a 5-star option here!!! Just made my first smoothie and realized the ones I made before now were a joke compared to this; everything (including spinach) blended so perfectly, it is like sipping on tasty liquid velvet. I also have an Omega juicer which is great but also extremely time-consuming; nutrient absorption and overall used produce/ other ingredient content between the two methods is very different, and both are beneficial in their own ways, but this blender is a super-fast prep/combine/cleanup deal making it a way better option for getting fresh nutrients on the go. I thought it was surprisingly quiet and is only loud in the higher speeds, and smoothies will only be used very briefly (less than a minute) judging by what I made today which included frozen fruit. Daily life and habits will never be the same, and I’m sooooo happy I finally dropped the cash for this!!!" —Sarah W

Promising review: "Absolutely the best iron I have ever had — and I've had many brands including three Rowentas, including the top end one. It's amazingly light, more steam holes than any other iron — but I think it is the 1,700 watts that really is the key. All my friends wanted to try it and swore they were going home to order one. One or two passes, and zero wrinkles. I also sew and the key to a professional look starts with being able to get a good press on the seams — something I have never had before without a lot of effort. Zippo effort with this one!" —L. Thomas

Get it from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in four styles).

Promising review: "I bought one for beside the grill, one for beside the stove, one for the laundry room, and one for the car. I think the intuitive, easy to use design is fantastic. We already have the muscle memory for using a spray can. In an emergency, it's so much easier to grab this and use it and turn a small fire into a nonfire. I don't have time to remember a three-step method of fire control when my bacon has gotten out of control on the stove. I'm not a firefighter! I'd really like to have one in every room. Think about it. Isn't it better to immediately contain a small fire than deal with a big one? This could save your life, and your house." —K. Zander

Get it from Amazon for $11.98.

PS, this includes a caddy!

Promising review: "Honestly I didn't think this was going to work, BUT I am so glad I was wrong! I love how easy it is to use and most of all, how QUICKLY it unclogs my toilet!!! I just shove it down the toilet hole, use the motion of pushing it in and out a couple of times, take it out completely, and the toilet drains with ease! I'm not using all my strength to unclog toilets anymore, and no worries about nasty toilet water splashing everywhere, and it cleans super easily...BEST THING I EVER BOUGHT ON THE INTERNET!!!" —Laura

Get it from Amazon for $14.97.

Promising review: "This is a lifesaver! I rent, so there’s not usually much I can do about gaps under front door. This draft stopper went on easily and is very well adhered to the door. Now I don’t have to worry about losing cold air in the summer, and don’t have to worry about bugs crawling in from the front yard." —S. Johnson

Get it from Amazon for $7.98+ (available in four colors).

Promising review: "If you're on the fence, just do it. They are half the price of MaxTrax and just as good, I haven't used them as a bridge, but they literally saved my and my wife's lives in a recent Colorado Blizzard on a horrible mountain pass. Good tires, and 4LO couldn't get me up the 12% grade in about 1' of fresh snow on top of 1–2" of ice and we were just sliding sideways toward the literal cliff. We got these babies out, wedged them against the front and rear opposite corners and it got us out of the terrible situation and back home." —Tony

Each cleaner comes with a trial size of Bissell's Spot & Stain Formula, which is also available on Amazon for $16.99!

Promising review: "Yep! TikTok made me buy it and I loved it. Looked for it online, and on Walmart they were about $150 for some reason?? Got it here, and I am LOVING IT. Things definitely look cleaner. Spots on my carpet are gone, and my car seats look brand new for the first time since I bought it! Directions are easy. Just a heads up, MAKE SURE TO USE WARM WATER. if you leave water in it and it gets cold, it's not as effective, so just follow instructions and it should be wonderful!" —Carlos

This 3.5-qt. mini mixer includes a wire whisk, flat beater, and dough hook. It is dishwasher safe and sports a powerful 10-speed slide control. Oh, and it can make five dozen cookies at once.

Promising review: "This is the perfect size for my small kitchen. And you can’t beat quality and diverse uses of a KitchenAid." —Kay

Get it from Amazon for $329.99+ (available in nine colors).

Promising review: "This first caught my eyes when I saw how chic and cute it is. Then, I found out it actually helps sanitize makeup brushes! I wear makeup regularly, but to be honest, I don't clean my brushes frequently enough. I found it kind of frustrating to clean my brushes. Not sure why, but it always takes a REALLY LONG TIME for my brushes to dry. This is such a lifesaver as I know I can sanitize my brushes every time I use them with just one click! I don't have to worry about skin issues caused by dirty brushes anymore! It also makes a really good/cute gift. Very happy with this purchase." —CMC

Get it from Amazon for $89.

...unless you want a bold new look!

Promising review: "I can't say enough good things about this product. I have a family of four and would frequently have to snake our shower drain, but with this it appears I won't be having that problem ever again. I even give my dog baths and this collects the hair. It does not seem to slow down the flow of water down the drain significantly. I'm very impressed. You don't know how much hair you wash down your drain until you use this!" —Aaron Morlock

Promising review: "I would 1,000% recommend this for anyone and everyone. My dad bought me one for Christmas, and it has got me out of bad situations a couple of times. I have since bought one for everyone in the family and have recommended to the rest of the extended family. It comes in handy and can help avoid being in an unsafe situation where you are stranded and someone taking advantage of the situation. Not only does it charge your car battery, but you can use it to emergency charge your phone or to plug in something during a trip. This one fills tires. Just perfect." —SA Sunshine
