I found this because it was recommended on a TikTok, and I am SOOO glad I ordered it. I figured I had nothing to lose because of Amazon’s amazing return procedure! It has a nightlight and USB ports that are extremely convenient. It looks so much better and took my extension cord mess anxiety away!" —Janine D

Promising review: "I wish I had taken the time to take a before and after pic because I have so much more room in there now than I did before. I found the cutest tops in there that I had completely forgotten about because my clothes were crammed in the closet so tightly. Most of the time, I felt like I had nothing to wear, LOL, and now, I know exactly what I have, and it's even organized by sleeve length and color. I would definitely buy again and actually plan to buy more for my husband and children to use as well." —Mariko Lamb

www.amazon.com

Each hanger holds 10 pairs of leggings. I FINALLY caved and bought a pair of these after putting them in so many stories, and they've truly transformed my clothing organization and take up the space of about two dresses on my closet rod. And for where my leggings used to reside? It freed up nearly a third of a drawer!

Promising review: "Yes...I have too many clothes. I LOVE my leggings. These saved me soooo much room! Now I have much more space, AND I can see them all easier." —Larry Seymour

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $14.24

www.amazon.com

Watch one parent's demo on TikTok.

Promising review: "I love everything about this item. This is my second one. We use one for Lego Duplosand the other I got for our massive Fisher-Price Little People collection. It's expensive but worth every penny! If you have to scoop small toys into a bin daily...do it. It works exactly as it says and makes cleanup of small items a breeze." —R. Stratton

Get it from Amazon for $53.99 (available in four colors).

7. A set of adjustable mug organizers to help you better use your miniscule kitchen cabinet space *and* also keep your mugs safer since they fit on top of a mug, creating a setup where you can safely stack a second mug on top instead of googling replacements.

Promising review: "Great for messy teenagers. Cool item for my teenager's bathroom. She likes to lay her hair/makeup stuff on it so she can keep her other bathroom decor on the sides. When she's done she puts what she was using under the sink and folds up the sink tray so it can slide under the sink as well." —Melina

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two sizes and seven colors).

9. Heavy-duty cord wraps that'll help fashion some storage for extension cords and hoses out of thin air. All you need is one of these, some empty wall space, and a nail or hook! Also, disorganized cords are a trip hazard. Let's avoid that. 

www.amazon.com, Amazon

Promising review: "The cable clip organizer is sturdy and works great to help manage cord clutter. Before, I was constantly fishing between cables on the floor next to my bed to select the one I needed. I hated the messy look. I installed clips on the back of my nightstand, and problem solved! Very pleased with this purchase." —CB

Get a six-pack from Amazon for $6.97.

13. A slim cutlery organizer proves that, yes! You do have room for all your cutlery in your tiny kitchen drawer! Scoot over, forks. I FINALLY bought this for my only kitchen drawer, and it's made a huge difference.

Elizabeth Lilly / BuzzFeed

I have VERY narrow kitchen drawers in my NYC one-bedroom apartment kitchen, and buying one of these organizers has transformed my cutlery drawer. I'm able to safely reach in and grab whatever I need (like a manual can opener for tuna salad or a mini whisk for a hot chocolate) without having to sift tools around.

Promising review: "We had our children's smaller silverware separate from the adult silverware tossed in a completely different drawer. I got tired of looking at the messiness, so I bought this. This is fantastic. It fits perfectly now in the same drawer as our adult silverware." —BoyMom

Get it from Amazon for $5.99.

14. A space-saving suction cup shower caddy with angled shelves will put your products in the right position to get out every last drop, free you from product avalanches, and help you better see which shampoo or conditioner you're using...even if you haven't put in your contacts yet. (Literally, me in the shower every morning.)

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have been wanting to get one of these for a while and am so glad I did. It looks great and holds several items, and we have two to go on either side of the middle of the shower. It’s easy to install and also easy to clean once installed. No longer do we have a messy shower full of various washing products on the floor as this stores them all neatly and out of the way. Would definitely recommend this product!" —Kyproulla Loizou

Get it from Amazon for $39.99.

Get it from Amazon for $14.99.

16. A super entertaining rolling egg dispenser can help you save some space in the fridge and — thanks to its genius design — puts a new egg forward within your reach after you take one out.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Check out a TikTok of the egg storage rollerin action. 

Promising review: "Here it is! The best egg container on Amazon! How can I say that? Easy! Engineering! The slight tilt angle on the bottom of the container that the egg drawer sits on forces eggs to lightly roll forward, keeping all your eggs in the front, and never in the back, where you don't need them. It's super easy to use, so easy to clean, comes apart and can hold a full can organizer on top without issue, so no issues with sturdiness. It can easily hold 14 large size eggs. Easily one of my favorite purchases." —Karingen

Get it from Amazon for $16.99

17. A set of Command spray bottle hangers that'll adhere wherever it's most convenient for your space so you can grab it and get to work on that spill or mess as soon as it happens.

Check out aTikTok of the Command spray bottle hangers in action. 

Promising review: "Love these! They have helped organize all my products underneath my kitchen sink. The Command hooks are strong and nothing has budged even with the weight of the spray bottles! Highly recommend." —Talayfor87

Get a set of two from Amazon for $9.05

18. An outlet shelf *just* large enough for your electric toothbrush. Here's to a tidier sink!

Amanda / Amazon / Via www.amazon.com, Amazon Customer / Amazon / Via www.amazon.com

FYI, it installs like a regular outlet cover. Of course except with the wonderful shelf. Can also be installed so the shelf is below the outlet.

Promising review: "I absolutely love this thing! I have much less clutter on my sink thanks to this. If there's anyone not sure if it will fit due to an object, all you need is 1.25 inches of space between the edge of your existing outlet plate and the piece of furniture. I have a GFCI with a standard wall plate." —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in four colors).

19. A corner sponge organizer — it'll fit a surprising amount of dishwashing essentials in such a tiny space instead of them cluttering up your cleaning zone.

Amazon

This is also a better option than an organizer that hangs over your faucet because the weight of those can mess with your water flow!

Promising review: "This fits our sink perfectly! It's not too big and holds a sponge and two bottles of soap. We have a standard apartment sink and it fits perfectly, it also holds very well. We have it suctioned on the sink not the counter." —Erin Johnson

Get it from Amazon for $29.99.

20. A bookish disguise can tidy up a modem-y mess by hiding behind a decorative touch that's more useful than anyone could expect.

21. A floating bookshelf as a clever excuse to display your TBR pile and get around any weird room layouts or lack of storage space.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "These are so much fun! We ordered the small size, which fits standard hardback books (approximately 5–7 hardbacks in my experience). They're a great way to add some extra storage to our very small home, and we've placed them in our hallway so people ask us about them all the time. I'd highly recommend!" —LaBuenaVidaMere

Get a set of three from Amazon for $30.99 (available in two finishes and two sizes).

22. An electrical outlet cover with a power strip so you can take full advantage of your square footage in your living room and scoot your couch flush with the wall. Just a few inches can make a big difference!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I have an outlet outlet above our mantel that’s meant for a wall-mounted TV. We have a large painting covering it. We wanted to use the plug to power two Wi-Fi speakers on the long mantle. The thinness of the plug is perfect behind the painting. The power strip is hidden by a mantle clock. So, we have our two speakers to either side and no visible wires. This product may not work for every application, but for us, it’s 10 stars." —Amazon since '97

Get it from Amazon for $27.95+ (available in two styles).

23. A wall-mounted storage solution for your Dyson AirWrap you can mount in several configurations so you can make this work for you how you want! Sometimes ya' gotta get real creative. And such a pricey (but great!) styler is worth that extra effort. 

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "This is a great storage option for my Dyson Airwrap and accessories. They are easy to get to, and it doesn't take up any counter space. It was easy to install as well." —erenbod

Get it from Amazon for $29.99.

24. A space-saving yogurt organizer so you'll better see your yogurt's expiration dates and don't have to dig to unearth your breakfast.

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in packs of one or two).

25. A set of tiny Command hooks to hang on the inside of your kitchen cabinet and cease your measuring cups' nasty reign of hogging precious drawer or counter space.

Elizabeth Lilly / BuzzFeed

Yes, this is my kitchen cabinet and this trick helps me find the correct measuring cup so much faster than back when I used to stack them in a drawer! Just be sure to account for the cups' depth while arranging the cabinet's contents. Since I took this pic my 1/2-cup met its doom in a tub of sugar so I swapped in some measuring cups with *engraved* measurements on the cups, which makes my setup even better!

Get a 10-pack of hooks from Amazon for $10.84.

26. A low-key hidden spice shelf attachment to help you use up that dead space above your other spices. What sorcery!

Amazon

Psst — some reviewers also use this for easy access to pill bottles! 

Promising review: "I am very happy with this purchase. It couldn't have been any easier to install. I am looking forward to being able to gain more space inside my cabinets once I fully get my spices transferred into these (I bought two)." —SA Thompson 

Get it from Amazon for $17

27. A wall-mounted utensil rack with removable S-hooks in case you'd rather not keep your utensils on your kitchen counter. 

Amazon

Promising review: "This is so simple looking and elegant. It looks nice on the wall and I can have the utensils I use frequently right at my fingertips. It attached to the wall easily." —Care I.

Get it from Amazon for $18.99.
