Promising review: “I saw an immediate difference from my first use of this product. For about two months, my scalp was abnormally and extremely dry and flaky. After one use, I noticed a visible difference. I don’t normally write reviews, but this line of products is the real deal! I definitely will be purchasing again.” —L. Btlr
A jar opener so you can easily open that sauce without having to hit it with a knife, aggravating your arthritis, or having a carpal tunnel flare-up.
Amazon
Promising review: “This thing has been a lifesaver!!! With carpal-tunnel and arthritis, I got to the point where where opening anything was nearly impossible. And I live alone, so I don’t have anyone to go to when I need something opened. I would either work on it until I got it opened (and was in a lot of pain) or gave up on whatever it was I was opening. But with this, I can open ANYTHING!!! A great product!!” —Crystal A.
A quirky, modern printed blouse because Lark & Ro is giving Banana Republic a run for its money when it comes to office wear — for a fraction of the price.
Promising review: “It’s always a risk to buy something with no reviews, but this top exceeded my expectations. It’s a really nicely finished, high-quality top for a very reasonable price. The cuffs have matching fabric-covered buttons, and all the trim/piping really elevates the look. There’s even piping running up the side seams of the torso. The fabric is a nice, medium weight and not too clingy or too heavy. I’m petite (5’2″) and often find that tops like this are too long in the sleeves and body, but these fit just right. So beware if you’re over 5’4″ maybe? I ordered my usual size (large) and it fits perfectly. I went back and ordered another color!” —Songbird

A water-based, nontoxic tile pen that’ll get rid of the moldy crevices that never seem to get clean no matter how hard you scrub. It’ll cover up to 60 meters of surface too!
Promising review: “These things are awesome! I cleaned my bathroom tile grout first because the lady who lived there before me really let it go. A few places stayed stained and I was worried it wouldn’t cover them, but all grout areas are bright white and look new after using this.” —Donna K Cook

A renter-friendly peel-and-stick marble film that’ll give your counters a facelift without ruining your finances.
Yes, the film is water-resistant. All you gotta do is cut what you need using a D-C-Fix smoother.
Promising review: “Wow!!! I can’t believe how much this brightened up our bathroom!! The paper is very thick and seems very durable!! It looks beautiful! It is mostly easy to install. Just takes some patience. I watched videos on how other people did it first before attempting it myself which I think really helped!! Using a blow dryer to smooth it on helps prevent bubbles from getting caught underneath the paper. This cheap update made such a difference!!!”—Anna F.

A laptop desk to make sure your laptop fan isn’t getting smothered by your thighs and overheating.
Amazon
Promising review: “I work from home a lot, and sometimes I love working on my couch. My legs were starting to get sore from the weight on my laptop and cooling fan, and I couldn’t use my mouse of course. This little laptop tray is the best $30 I’ve spent in a long time. It makes working on the couch SO much easier. Thank you!” —T. Taylor

I can’t tell you the last time I spent money on pads or tampons. If you’re tired of sitting in your blood or the chemicals in tampons make you feel sick, try this. Inserting it can be a learning curve, but once you get it you won’t turn back.
Promising review: “This magical blood catching cup revolutionized the period game!! I don’t have cramps when I have it in because of the slow, steady suction alleviated the work of my uterus causing it to contract less. Yes it looks big, yes it looks intimidating, yes you can feel it the first couple of minutes, but our vaginal walls adjusts and conforms —then you don’t feel it. I had a bit of a leak the first couple times but found that if I pushed out air by pinching one side away from my vaginal wall, it re-suctions even harder and I had no leaks. Make sure to turn it in one (or even two) circles to ensure the edges are popped out around your cervix and not all folded up. I love the fact that I’m saving so much money on tampons and not filling landfills with applicators. I’m 33 and I got the one for before you have babies/turn 30 even though I have a child because I’m 5’2” 120lbs and have a small vagina. I’m glad I did because it fits and works perfectly!” —Julie 2 Shoes

A Rain-X glass treatment that repells water so well, your windshield wipers won’t even leave a streak.
Promising review: “I had a cheap, untempered windshield which was awful in the rain. A friend of mine from college recommended Rain-X and I was shocked at the difference. I applied it with a soft rag and sat there wondering if it was even on properly. I trusted the system and then later that night took my car out for a drive; it rained while I was out and the difference was instantly noticeable. Before, when using my wipers, streaks would obscure my view so much that any lights would make driving in the rain hard. Now, the droplets don’t smear and smaller ones sometimes just roll off. It’s pretty great.” —Alison J. Gong
Promising review: “I’ve been very impressed! It’s tall enough to fit easily over my pop-up drain and (even without suction cups) the weighted top keeps it in place. I have medium-length hair and seem to shed almost as much as my cat, but the drain protector catches it all and the hair is easily removed and tossed away. Best of all, the silicone doesn’t hold onto mildew or mold. I have been able to spray and wipe away any grime with very little effort. It looks like this drain protector will last a very long time. This has been a very worthy purchase!”—Suneimi
A set of silicone noise-cancelling earplugs for when you want peace and quiet despite being in the eye of the storm, figuratively speaking of course.
Amazon
Promising review: “These are a lifesaver for me! I have sensory processing issues and get easily overwhelmed/overloaded in noisy environments. Whenever I get into a situation where there is too much noise, I am able to quickly put them in. I also make sure I use them proactively before I walk into a store. It’s so much more tolerable shopping now because I can tune out all the overwhelming noise. The nice thing is you can still hear if someone is talking to you (i.e. across the table in a noisy restaurant), but it knocks all the deafeningly loud background noise down tremendously I feel like these earplugs have given me a bit of freedom back again. Thank you!!!!” —K.A.

Promising review: “These are super comfy! I’ve never owned sweatpants before, I always thought they looked sloppy, but I kind of liked that these had an almost sporty/athletic look. They look as good in person as they do online. You might want to size down depending on how you like them to fit, I ordered my normal size and the feel baggy but don’t look bad at all. I have to tie the waist kind of tight. I do wish I would have sized down.” —Anna S

Amazon
Promising review: “These are a must-have! I couldn’t believe how easy these were to apply. The material is very easy to cut with normal scissors and I was able to lay it on the door cut the exact length apply and noticed and an immediate difference! We bought these for two doors leaking cold air into the house but it’ll also double to keep little bugs out! The material is very bendable which is nice if you open the door and it’s long it doesn’t damage anything it’s very rubbery.” —Lindsay (Thornburg) Perkins

Promising review: “I bought this sweater as a lightweight, comfortable option for my husband to wear during our cruise because it tends to be chilly at night after spending the day in the sun. It fit him as I expected it would. Short! However, that is by no fault of the product as he is 6’3. Everything is short on him. It is lightweight, soft, and made just fine for the price. I actually love it for myself as an oversized option. Would purchase again!” —Ashley Perkins

A coffee warmer for those who want to sip throughout the day without their beverage getting cold. It automatically shuts off too 😁.
Amazon
Promising review: “I had gone through two other coffee warmers in a month, both of which got raving reviews on Amazon, but barely kept coffee warm for 30 minutes. So I decided to splurge on this more expensive one, and BEST DECISION EVER! Not only does it keep your coffee warm, it keeps it HOT on the highest setting. It does an excellent job at keeping your coffee hot for as long as you want, PLUS it is super easy to turn on and off. When you turn it off, it displays the lowest hot setting light to show you the plate is still hot so no unsuspecting burns. This is hands-down the best option on the market.” —Elizabeth Harris

A Clorox toilet cleaning kit to convert the rustiest, grimiest, run down toilet into a throne clean enough to be in the Ritz Carlton.
A kit comes with a wand, a caddy, and 16 disposable scrubber refills.
Promising review: “Do you ever look at your toilet brush in disgust and resentment? How is a dirty used-up brush still sitting in your throne room? You clean your bathroom, but then you put that sucker down in its place and it’s just mocking you. It’s never truly immaculate. Never knowing true cleanliness. Fear no more. Now you can shine your porcelain throne and not have to worry about a used up toilet brush mocking your clean, sparkling bathroom. Gone are the days of breathing in dirty poop particles from the reusable potty-cleaning-brush-thingy. Clorox Toilet Wand: the answer to your prayers if you want an easy, deep clean and to toss away the brush after you’re done. Fast, cheap, and easy. Just how we like to clean.” —Juliana

A car upholstery cleaning solution to remove mysterious car stains that nobody seems to be responsible for without breaking the bank.
Promising review: “This product does what it says it’s going to do. I used it to clean up my car which had stains on the bucket seats (food, sweat, who knows what else) and a ton of dog slobber on the back of the front seat headrests. I used a capful of the soap in a bucket of hot water and went to town. I think this next part was key for my results: I used an electric drill with a brush attachment to scrub in the soap and hot water mix. I dabbed the areas dry with a microfiber cloth, per the instructions, then I let everything air dry in the hot Arizona summer heat. I am pleased with the results and recommend this product for removing stains on your vehicle interior fabrics.” —Amazon Customer

Promising review: “My 15-year-old leather sectional hadn’t been cleaned or conditioned in three to four years because I couldn’t find anything that worked well without causing it to look blotchy. The color was also fading and I thought it was a goner. After some elbow grease, the sectional looks great! It’s now back to its original color without being blotchy. More importantly, the suppleness has returned. I can actually say that it looks as good as the day we bought it.” —jellybean55

One reviewer even soaked their brush in a solution of Dawn and diluted vinegar and got great results (see the pics above).
Promising review: “When I bought this I was really skeptical. I am grossed out by my hairbrush and clean it all the time. I’ve soaked it in vinegar and tea tree oil, used a toothbrush, scrubbed it with shampoo, picked it clean by hand — everything you can think of. Still, it’s so hard to get the little lint that forms at the base of the brush — they don’t dissolve off and you have to pick them off the bristles one by one because a toothbrush won’t even break them up. This thing works amazingly. I don’t know why, it just does — the particular texture of the bristles on this really grabs everything. It scraped the little lint rings right off and now my brush is cleaner, 10 times as fast.” —HeartsofHavoc

A bamboo charging station for keeping your electronic devices (and their cords) from taking over your living, meeting, and bedrooms.
Overheating is highly unlikely, courtesy of its built-in heat dissipation system. Bonus: the device will likely discourage people with sticky fingers from “borrowing” your charger.

We bought this to keep in the living room so that the kids can plug everything in at night, we’re really glad we did! It is really well built, charges quickly, and looks nice. We will probably be buying another to keep in our bedroom. Highly recommended!!” —Andrew B.

A helpful bag organizer to convert your purse from a black hole into a functional accessory. It’s got lots of compartments so you won’t have to get anxious when fishing for your wallet at the cash register.
The organizer’s zippers add an extra layer of security to your open tote.
Promising review: “I love this organizer. The XL fits my Neverfull GM perfectly. This organizer has the zipper compartment in the middle. It’s very helpful because the Neverfull is an open tote. Most organizers don’t have the zippered compartment. I keep my keys and phone in there. I keep my wallet in the zippered pocket attached to the bag. My most valuable essentials are zipped away where they’re difficult for a would-be thief to access in the open bag. It makes me feel more secure. I love that all of my things are so organized and everything has a place. The bag still cinches with the organizer inside. It looks great with no cinching. The organizer is pretty lightweight. Also, I can still fit my 13” laptop on the side with the organizer inside.” —Anna

A drawer organizer to add structure to any nightmarish drawer. Honeycomb-shaped compartments make separating small clothing, accessories, and art supplies a total breeze.
The unit snaps together so you can customize it for any drawer!
Promising review: “These are very nice and easy to put together. I bought six sets to organize my entire family’s drawers and they do exactly as promised. I love how they can be cut to fit too! My drawer sizes were just a smidgen smaller than the honeycombs if I laid them vertical so I cut the ends off to fit them better. Easy! In one drawer I laid them out horizontal and needed one and a half lengths, so I trimmed the edges off of the butted ends and laid them together. They aren’t connected by the snaps because of the way I cut them, but when it’s together it all stays in place without any shifting. They look great! The snaps are sturdy too. You can hear them click in so you know you did it right. For me, putting these in vertical was an easier installation than horizontal and required less trimming. They held all of our underwear, socks, and even our belt/tie accessories. With the exception of my own drawers (pictured), the honeycombs fit perfectly in my family’s dresser drawers without the need to trim. I am extremely happy with these!” —A.K

A toddler-friendly bookcase nook for recreating the best parts of a classroom in your child’s bedroom. This adorable piece of furniture is perfect for remote learning. It’s quite easy to assemble too!
Amazon
Promising review: “The screws were packaged, organized, and labeled nicely so you don’t have to dig through them to find what you need. The bookshelf materials were all nicely packaged and protected. Assembly took me about 30 minutes to build by myself. The bookshelf itself is nice and sturdy, holds my 60-lb son no problem and I sat on it as well and it held up. The cubbies are nice sized and there’s plenty of them. My only complaint is the cushions sliding off every time, I used double-sided Velcro tape on the bottom of each cushion and that has fixed the problem so far. Surprisingly for the cushions being so thin, my son still says he stays very comfortable! I think you get a good unit for a good price!” —Faith Wittwer
