Make sure you double check the dimensions of the space you plan on putting the gate before ordering to make sure you get the proper fit!
Promising review: "Best gate I have ever owned. I have two small kids, a dog, and two cats. Plus, lots of stairs. I have gone through so many gates in the last three years. Most broke over time or came loose. This gate is worth 20 stars. Amazing quality. It has stood the test of time! reliable, sturdy, easy to use, easy to install. The gate swings both ways! That's a HUGE plus. I feel so secure having it knowing that there is no way my kids or dog can knock it down or get over it. It is tall too. Buy this one. Coming from the girl who is the queen of gates. This one is one-and-done." —L. Randall
Price: $39.99+ (available in five sizes and in three colors)
Promising review: "Love, love this set! Fits perfectly on my condo balcony!! Easy to assemble, strong, looks perfect! Highly recommend them." —maggie
Price: $150+ (available in six colors and styles)
Promising review: "The material is great. It's soft but flexible, so it feels comfortable to step on but also sturdy beneath your feet. I got a bigger size, and it actually pulls the room together, making my tiny bathroom look rather chic. Honestly, I think it's great and better for the environment because I don't have to launder it every week." —JamieJo

Promising reviews: "This is my first air fryer, and I have been using it almost every day for seven months now. By far the most used small kitchen appliance in my household! It’s the best reheating tool and makes fried food nice and crispy in less than 20 minutes. Store-bought apple pies turn into great pies, and frozen chicken nuggets or french fries get much tastier than if heated in the conventional oven. I use this not only for reheating but also to bake or roast many kinds of small-sized uncooked food. It makes the best drumsticks. It is easy to use and easy to clean. Flipping over is not necessary; just shake the basket once or twice while it’s cooking. I always use the crisper that came with this fryer. With it, excessive oil drops down to the bottom so the food never turns too greasy." —Rain Traveler
"Love this. I bought it as a gift for someone because l have had one for three years and it’s still great. Before this l ran through cheaper brands that started peeling after six months. The people l gifted it to loves it. Worth every penny." —Regular Customer
Price: $105.99+ (available in three sizes and styles).
Promising review: "This is a well-made basket that has plenty of room for a large load plus expands and collapses well. I wish I would have gotten it sooner! It’s a great space saver!" —pfc689
Price: $30.70 (available in 21 colors)
This umbrella doesn't come with a stand, but if you need one, try this one for $32.99 on Amazon.
Promising review: "I am truly impressed with the quality and sturdiness of this umbrella. Having a crank is awesome as well and I find it super handy that you can easily shift the angle. I sit at my patio table and paint with watercolor and mid-day had been impossible since it’s so bright. This has been perfect and I now can stay outside the whole day in peace and quiet. The only downside is it does not come with a weight for the bottom. I picked one up a generic 20 pounds one at Lowe’s that fits perfectly." —Amazon Customer
Price: $39.99+ (available in 18 colors)

Promising review: "Bought this shelving to hold all my spices and have their labels visible. Holds everything securely and the magnetic strength is exceptional. A very good buy." —evrhandyman
Price: $21.99 for a set of two (available in 19 colors and in sets of four or six)

Natalie Brown / BuzzFeed
BuzzFeed shopping editor Natalie Brown put this baby to the test, and here's what she had to say: "This thing works small miracles: I cleaned about half of my bathroom's grout to its original sparkling-clean cream color in 40 minutes, and it took honestly no effort at all. I literally sat on the floor, dipped the bristles in a Castile soap dilution (2–3 drops of soap + 1/2 cup of water; but you could use almost any cleaner of your choice), then lazily ran the scrubber back and forth over a 6-inch section of grimy, dark-gray grout — and it only took about 30 seconds for that grout to go from dingy to bright. I started by using the specialty grout brush, but then I decided to try it with the default brush, and that seemed to work just as well, IMHO!"
Check out her full power scrubber review.
Price: $23.39
You can also get a special grout-cleaning brush head that can be swapped in for the regular one for $14.68.
The mandolin comes with two julienning blades and a finger guard. PLEASE be careful while using this! I highly recommend some cut-resistant gloves.
Promising reviews: "I have tried several mandolins. Some were large and required more kitchen cabinet real estate than their value warranted. Some were dull and hardly cut through tough root vegetables. Others were so complicated and difficult to clean, I generally elected to cut and slice by hand. Enter the Benriner BN95B Super Slicer. It is simple to understand and use, sturdy, effective, and produces lovely cut and sliced produce. Cleaning it is easy, and it stands on its side (protecting its blade and my fingers) in a utensil drawer, so I can pull it out and use it as simply as pulling out a knife. Made a lovely sliced cucumber salad last night on the fly. Cucumber prep took (literally) less than a minute. What's not to love?" —S. A. Brew
"I’ve been using this brand for years. Restaurants tend to use this, too, no matter where I go. I have the larger one, and now I have this one to have with me all the time. Solid tool." —Therese De La Fuente

The stickers dim 50%-80% of the LED, so you can still tell that your devices are on and working.
Promising review: "This is the best thing you never knew you needed. I own a digital clock with the numbers displayed in red LED light, and every night I've blocked the light with a cover so it doesn't shine in my eyes as I sleep. Silly I know, but I like my room pitch black and cave-like. On a whim I bought this product. OH MY GOD! Game changer!! For the first night EVER I didn't have to cover the clock display before I went to bed!! I had no idea how big a difference this little dimmer could make, but I'm more than pleased with the result. I can still see the time display just fine, but now my room is a happy cave! The product is easy to remove and doesn't leave a sticky residue at all, which can't be said for most tapes. I did notice a slight lag in response when I covered my TV LED sensor, so if you're trying to block something that actually senses inputs I would maybe not suggest this. Other than that, excellent product!" —Logan M

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 non-fire. 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

Promising review: "I absolutely love these. For quite a while I have been frustrated with kitchen/dish towels. I find most to be not nearly absorbent enough, too large and awkward, and needing frequent disinfecting to avoid smelling funky. These towel sponges are exactly what I needed in a dish cloth. They are absorbent, just the right size, antimicrobial, and easy to clean! Add in that they are sourced from a small family business and I'm thrilled." —NATHANIEL RIDER
Price: $19.99+ for a 10-pack (available in nine color packs)
Promising review: "Have used this for about three weeks, watering flowers, grass and washing cars. Have used it almost every day in some way or another. It's very light, easy to maneuver, and doesn't kink. However, I think that's because I followed the directions on the box for how to unwind it for the first time. When I was first unraveling, it kinked in multiple places so I had to carefully unravel and lay it out fully extended before I even hooked it up to the water source. Has been kink-free ever since." —Sean Cotter

Promising review: "Replaced some hard stoppers with these and now when the drawer gets closed hard it's just a soft thud instead of a hard loud BANG. I'm pleased with these." —Jason

Promising review: "I used this product for my stove because it's one thing I dislike cleaning. I have used multiple degreaser sprays and they all are so toxic and don't work for me. The Magic Eraser was okay but I used several at a time and I had to scrub so hard. But this product oh my goodness, legit a miracle. It doesn't have any type of smell. I put the paste on a cloth, clean the area then wipe it off with a damp cloth and voilà, magic!" —May
Price: $5.97
Promising review: "We got this screen so our dog can go in and out freely without letting the bugs in. At first he wasn't quite sure about going through it; in fact he scratched at it signaling us to open it for him. But after a few training treats he figured it out. Installation was so easy! The Velcro, fabric, and mesh all seem very good quality. I'm also happy that we can take down the screen in the winter and store away easily, then just reattach it in the spring. Very happy with my purchase!" —Crystal K
Price: $29.99+ (available in eight sizes)
Promising review: "We live in a household that contains two humans, two dogs, and two cats. It's a real Noah's Ark furnished with a black sectional couch. Our dogs absolutely hate the vacuum. So much so they will attack the cleaner head with their vicious bite even before we power it on. This makes the task of cleaning our couch extremely unpleasant and nearly impossible. Thanks to Chom Chom, we no longer have this problem! With a simple, quick, SOUNDLESS sweep, we're able to keep our couch pet hair–free in blissful peace. This tool does an amazing job picking up pet hair but not so much with crumbs. We were so impressed, we gifted these as X-mas presents for all of our pet-loving friends." —AnonM
Price: $18.74+ (available in two colors)
Promising review: "We enjoy traveling and spend several weeks on the road each year. I have lower back problems that require me to get Cortisone shots for pain relief. For the last few weeks, I have also been having trouble sitting for more than a few minutes because of a pain in the area of my tailbone. I ordered this item for our last trip. I could not believe the difference it made! I was able to sit comfortably both driving and riding without any pain, and that made a huge difference in my enjoyment of the trip. When we got home, I ordered a second one so I could leave one in the car and have one inside. I am recommending it to all my friends who need some relief." —Susan S.
Price: $45.99 (available in seven colors)
Promising review: "I have no idea how people find the time to keep their house that Instagram-ready clean. But with this cleaning product, I just spray it after a shower and spray it down with water the next time, and it keeps it so clean. It is a little slippery when you get in the shower to clean it off, but I don't care, it's totally worth it. It's so easy." —whynotwritesomething
Price: $20.98+ (available in two scents and two sizes)
You can use this pressure washer on outdoor cushions, wood decks, house siding, and so many other places. You can even fill it with detergent to wash your car!
Promising review: "I love this washer. It competes with my 2200 PSI gas-powered pressure washer, which in fact I sold to keep this. But doesn't have the noisy gas engine or the heavy weight. Easy to move around, lightweight, and has great power. Very quiet. I love all the attachments and the different stream types. The soap dispenser works well. I'm cleaning everything, my deck, my house, the garage doors, the concrete slab. It takes off all the dirt and mold from the old concrete stairs and sidewalk." —Tim
Price: $169+ (available in four models)

BuzzFeed contributor Jonathan Mazzei owns and loves this tape: "I finally bought this because EVERY TIME I tried to open my bedroom window to let in a cool evening breeze, I got the added bonus of ending up covered in bites while watching an alarming number of mosquitos crash headfirst into my bright laptop screen. NOT TODAY, SATAN! It was super easy to stick this repair tape over the slits and holes in my admittedly very old screen, and now I can keep my window open without inviting all the mosquitos in the neighborhood inside for a midnight snack."
Price: $8.29+ (available in two colors and three sizes)
Promising review: "Bought this to clean a sofa we’ve had for 18 years. It’s too comfy to get rid of. I knew it needed cleaning but had no idea it was this filthy!!! Nasty! I went over some places two or three times until water I was sucking out was clean. I’m so glad I got it!!" —Shannon
Price: $164.79
Promising review: "I am a big fan of lighting and ambiance. These made my rooftop terrace all the more charming and comfortable. I bought two strings for a huge deck and they fit great! All the bulbs came intact and all work so far!" —Shanna Cancino
Price: $25.99 (available in two colors and six lengths and styles)
Promising review: "I’ve become pretty committed to these pillows. I recently revamped my guest rooms and had some ancient pillows that I decided to upgrade with these bad boys since we have used them in other places for years now! Love them. Super soft, clean up nice, and stay cool. Highly recommend in both queen and king sizes! And yes, the queen size fits into a regular sham if you need to know!" —Ali Lytle
Price: $49.99+ for a set of two (available in sizes Queen/Standard, King, and Euro Throw)

Promising review: "The perfect handy tool for getting into tight places. It's firm enough for a number of uses but it doesn't scratch or mar surfaces. I should have gotten the five pack; I have so many uses for these things. I think the best use yet was cleaning the sliding door track. I finally could get into the corners to get the grunge out. A great invention." —Miss Picky

The 37-gallon composter is made of 100% post-consumer recycled plastic. To use, just toss in your compost, and turn every two or three days. For more on creating a healthy compost mix in your tumbler, check out this article on Better Homes & Gardens.
Promising review: "This is a good sturdy composter. We're heavily into reusing our used organic material. We were using a local composting company, but they got too picky about what material we could give them, so we struck out on our own and compost all our organic leftovers. We have a large garden and can now put this organic material back into the soil. The garden is just thriving!" —S Bradbury
Price: $71.59 (also available in a 22-gallon version)
Promising review: "I actually love this thing more than one should love a toilet brush. I was skeptical at first. Very. But I also try to maintain a low-waste, sustainable home, so I was keen to try this brush. I hadn't used it right off the bat because I was searching for the right container. So, when I finally used it, I was surprisingly shocked at how well it worked. It reaches along the underside of the bowl well and is more abrasive than you think. It feels very comfortable in your hand, and I find the shape perfect, as all brushes should be this shape. If you've made it this far, just go for it. You're already doing a much better job even considering this brush as an option versus a plastic cheapie one. So go for it; you'll be pleased. It's not just more aesthetically pleasing, but it also works better than most out there. And trust me, I spent too long choosing a toilet brush for my new place. I mean, it's a small thing but actually kind of important. So, I've done some of the legwork for you. I was torn between this and the Simplehuman one, but I followed my beliefs in something more sustainable, and it panned out really well. I'll be ordering another one for my upstairs bathroom and recommending them to all the sustainable folks in my life!" —christina
