An oil diffuser so you can focus on adding moisture and aromatherapy to your bedroom, instead of the smell of your housemate’s hard-boiled eggs wafting in under the door. Essential oils sold separately!
This diffuser can run three to four hours in continuous mode, or over six hours in intermittent mode; and has a color-changing LED light.
Promising review: “I love this essential oil diffuser, it is so cute. And the color matches my dresser. I received it on time, and have been using it daily. The aroma of the oils smell great and so relaxing. I will be ordering another one for my guest bedroom ☺.” —Rhea Phillips
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors).

A white noise sound machine for anyone in need of consistent privacy. This baby never loops sound and will help keep outside noises from disrupting Zoom calls, sleep schedules, and WFH sessions.
It will also help keep your noise levels down, in case you need to put some “time to clean my room jams” on without disturbing your roomies!
Promising review: “This sound machine has literally changed my life. The sleep with this machine is like nothing I have ever experienced. Our neighbor likes to spend his mornings shoveling gravel on a cement surface with a metal shovel about 4-5 feet from my window (like 6 a.m. early) and to be honest, I was starting to have some pretty dangerous thoughts about stealing his shovel, breaking his arms, burning his house down…. One goes down some pretty dark paths when they suffer from insomnia already and then when they finally fall asleep get woken up with a shovel scraping down a sidewalk. Okay so the machine somehow COMPLETELY covers the noise from the shovel, the toilet flushing next to my room, dogs barking etc. It is incredible. Highly recommend.” —MorAvFire
Get it from Amazon for $45.96 (available in four colors).

A genius self-watering planter that’ll keep your plants hydrated for up to two weeks, so next time you’re out of town you can rest assured your plants will be well-taken-care-of.
I need this in my life so I can finally stop overwatering my plants! Each planter comes with an easy to use clip-on watering attachment inside the lower reservoir saucer. Just fill-up the deep reservoir directly to water your plants instead of risking an overflow!
Promising review: “I love these so much I ended up buying three. My peace lily was constantly wilting every few days and if I went away I came home to a sad sight. But occasionally I overwatered and got those ugly yellow leaf tips. Now I just water the saucer. If the plant needs it, it takes it, if not, the water just stays there. No guessing at all! My two lilies and fern have never looked better.” —Robert McManus
Get it from Amazon for $9.97+ (available in three sizes and five colors).

A sunrise alarm clock reviewers swear by for waking up on time and less groggy. The alarm mimics natural sunlight and is often bright enough to wake you up without any noise at all. Now you can finally be an early-bird and enjoy more quiet time before your roomies are up!
Amazon
The alarm also rings for super heavy sleepers!
Promising review: “This clock is a miracle-worker. It also has a 45-day money-back guarantee if it doesn’t work for you. I dreaded all my early morning classes, and work during the winter darkness. There is nothing more dampening for your day than waking up in darkness and forcing yourself to get out of bed with an annoying alarm. My entire room is lit up by the time my alarm rings in the morning now. I never have to wake up to darkness again. The best part is that my body truly, actually does wake up itself before my alarm ever rings. I love this clock. Never going to use a different clock again. Also, the night light is great because you can choose from the 10 different light intensities. If you’re concerned that the light isn’t going to be bright enough to make a difference like I was, I can assure you, this clock with its highest intensity of light, is really really bright, seriously, just like the sun!” —Jessica

A weighted blanket for anyone who struggles to slip into a deep sleep due to anxiety, stress, or night terrors. The comfort of the weight helps all types of people fall asleep and stay asleep easier, so no matter how much stress your roommate added to your day you’ll be able to rest easy.
Amazon
Promising review: “I was a doubter, but I was also desperate to get a decent night’s sleep. (I deal with severe chronic pain and insomnia). The first thing I did was insert the heavy blanket inside a cover. It was way easier than I expected. I was delighted with the material, the bamboo is silky and feels cool. But the big surprise was when I crawled into bed a good three hours before I usually manage to fall asleep. The next morning I realized I had gone to sleep within minutes — and slept straight through to morning. The first full night’s sleep — with NO sleep medication — in 15 years.” —Violet

Promising review (for the coloring book): “Sometimes you just need a little break from life.

Promising review: “Let me start by saying I’ve always been a fan of bath bombs — I’ve tried many brands and I have to stay this is one of my favorites. They come packaged in a cute box with tissue paper. At first, I was nervous that it would leave my bathtub stained like some of the other brands I’ve used but after my bath, there was no trace! Also, the smells are heavenly. The scents are potent enough to smell and relax with but not enough to give you a headache. I recommend this product for anyone who likes bath bombs!” —jenny

Promising review: “My sister bought this for me for Christmas several years ago and I have been using this in my office ever since then. When I get to work in the morning, I plug it in.

Amazon
Promising review: “The range of sizes makes it easy to find one that fits well on almost any round container. I use the smallest one for my dog food cans. You can ‘burp’ the lids by lifting one edge once the top is on and press down to eliminate any excess air so it’s really an airtight fit. Very handy and I ordered a bigger range of sizes from my first order. And, they wash easily in the dishwasher.” —Kathleen Warner

A 50-pack of super-soft earplugs with the highest noise reduction rating designed to help you fall asleep and stay asleep through it all.
Amazon
Promising review: “My boyfriend snores like a buffalo! We have already started sleeping in separate rooms (we both can actually sleep now, I love it!!). But vacations had turned into something I dread! We just got back from a 10-day southwest vacation, which is why I bought these! I’ve tried many other earplugs.
I brought three different plugs to try on this last vaca. Happened to use these Mack’s first. Didn’t even waste my time on the other two. These are squishy enough to completely plug your ears, and also squishy enough not to hurt your ears. I can sleep with them in all night! I couldn’t even hear the alarm clock at all. And I was able to sleep next to a lumberjack (sawing logs, LOL) all night!!” —ScrubyLoo

A five-window insulation kit you can rely on to keep your room warm and cozy. Say bye to cold drafts and hi to lower heating bills!
Promising review: “SORCERY!!! What a difference this has already made! Using an infrared thermometer, I found that the temperature inside went from mid-50s to 66.7 within minutes of installation. The furnace was always set to high 60s until we installed the film. Now it’s set at 63 degrees, and the furnace is blowing less frequently and for shorter periods of time. Another bonus to this product: the road noise from outside now sounds muffled, so less noticeable/annoying. That’s HUGE. And as a side note, the one I bought was in fact crystal clear.” —Public name
