Promising review: "Every household with kids should have this thing, actually EVERY HOUSEHOLD, REGARDLESS! No more finding toothpaste everywhere but down the sink drain, no more throwing half a tube away because of lost caps, insert your favorite brand in the dispenser and voila! Simply press your brush against lever and a perfectly portioned dollop every time. When it’s time to rinse, grab one of the four cups that are hidden in the top and bottom of this little masterpiece. Rinse your brush, open the storage compartment, hang brush, and shut lid! Bristles are covered and protected from the wide array of germs that like to inhabit bathrooms." —Jen

Promising review: "This is literally like an iron in a bottle. It's fantastic. This morning my shirt had a crease from being folded but I didn't have time to change, so I misted just one spray on the shirt, shook it out while I was wearing it, and the crease was gone. I cannot express how much I love this! I spray it over my shirts and shake them out a couple of times then hang them up and they are completely wrinkle free, and it smells like everything just came right out of the laundry, which is also a plus." —Kayla

Promising review: "This thing is great! Usually I don't go through a whole bag of coffee very quickly, and I have to be super meticulous about pushing all the air out and wrapping it up, then double bagging it with a double-seal ziplock bag to try and keep it fresh. It's a hassle, and time consuming especially when I'm in a hurry. I saw this while browsing storage containers one day and decided to give it a try. Why not, right?? I'm so thrilled!! I've had the same bag of coffee in this container for a few weeks now... and it's still just as fresh and wonderful as the day I dumped it in! I only put in one bag of coffee but it could easily hold two, I firmly believe. The lid seals very tight and keeps it nice and perfect! I plan on buying more of this brand of storage containers for flour, white sugar, rice, the works! If it works this well on coffee then I am a believer that the other canisters will work awesome as well!" —JC

Promising review: "I can't believe I've waited this long to buy one of these. My eyesight is failing, including my depth perception so wearing bracelets has been difficult unless they are slip on. This jewelry helper is easy to use. Now I can wear bracelets again." —Cat Mom

Promising reviews: "I'm a single dad of a 6-year-old girl and combing her hair is the hardest part of taking care of her. She gets really bad knots in her hair. This brush is the only thing that has ever worked. Thank you so much. She even likes to comb her own hair now." —Nguyen P.
"I have thick 4c/4b hair and this brush truly glides through my hair. I only use it while my hair is wet, but it is perfect. No shedding." —Angel

Just be sure your devices support wireless charging!
Promising review: "I love this charging station! I‘m one of those people who has all the Apple things, so being able to charge my phone, watch, and AirPod Pros at the same time is a total game-changer for me. I can’t even guess how many times I’ve misplaced my AirPods because I didn’t have a dedicated place for them. Now, there’s no question where they are every morning. Not only that, but the charger is pretty fast (especially for the watch and earbuds), and the station itself is easy to set up and use." —Anonymous

Promising review: "The convenience of the lock laces makes my mornings so much easier. Waking up at 5:30, the last thing I want to do is worry about tying my shoes. With lock laces, I'm able to slide them on and even without tightening them, they provide enough tension to keep my shoes snug." —Tyler W.

Promising review: "I have a bad habit of buying reusable water bottles. This one is cute, this one has this feature, this one has that. What resulted was a cluttered cabinet, a ton of water bottles falling on me every time I went to get one, and I was only using the handful right at the front. This is a great solution! It keeps the cupboard organized, and I can see what I have and quickly grab the bottle I need. As a bonus, it also creates a built-in limitation on how many water bottles I can have at any given time. Really recommend." —Miki

Promising review: "I use my laptop as a second monitor, with a wireless mouse/keyboard combo. This stand is slightly higher than several others, and puts my laptop screen at the perfect height so it's level with my eye line. The height is also great for video conferences, which I'm doing more and more — the laptop camera is now level with my face, so no unflattering 'campfire ghost story' angles! It's also got a squared-off shape to the base, so I can slide files underneath for easy access during calls. The design allows my laptop to be fully vented, too, so it stays cool. Really great stand at a good price!" —Linda in NJ

The plug can be easily controlled with the Amazon Alexa app, and it pairs seamlessly with Amazon's Alexa-enabled devices. (Pick up an Echo Dot if you haven't already!)
Promising review: "These are fantastic! If you have something plugged in that’s inconvenient to turn on and off, this will make your life so much easier. I use them for strip lighting, nightlights, Christmas lights, and regular lamps. You can name the light whatever makes sense for you and feel like your home is customized just for you. When you can get rid of life’s little annoyances, you should!" —BG

Reviewers love this because it doesn't require you to "smart enable" other parts of your home.
Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for, and I had no idea it existed until I saw someone mention it on TikTok! Our front walkway gets pretty dark at night, and I was frustrated with trying to remember to turn on the light every evening and off every morning. I looked into those light sensors you can plug in, but our front porch light is under an awning with enough shade that it would have kept the light on 24/7. This little Switchbot solved the problem. I applied it to the indoor light switch and set the time on my phone. It has worked perfectly ever since." —Alecia McLochlin

It's heat-resistant up to 400 degrees F and can be tossed in the dishwasher for easy cleaning.
Promising review: "It is incredibly versatile and a wonderful addition to our kitchen. So far I have used it for drying large items over the sink, filling a pot when the sink was already full, and as a counter trivet for a hot pan, and it performs beautifully in all these roles. The metal rods are strong and sturdy enough to hold heavy items, long enough to span our sink from different angles, and best of all, it rolls up for easy storage when not in use. All around a great kitchen tool, and I'll never be without one again." —T. Eicher

Promising review: "I love this thing! My husband got me a new vanity for my birthday, so I ordered this to go with it. It holds all my makeup, and I put everything in order of when I use it, so I just spin it, use what I need, then spin it again. It makes my morning so much easier." —MB

It comes in a pack of two, one for each eye.
Promising reviews: "I'm new to the eyeliner thing, I can never get my eyes to look the same, one arrow is always down or up. Stamping is so much easier for someone like me. It still takes a bit of practice, but it made makeup application faster and easier for sure. What [I'm] NOT new to is the pool. I dive, I swim, I splash, and the eyeliner stays exactly where I placed it. Just out of curiosity, I stamped my hand, let it dry, and then I rubbed with my finger, I washed my hand, and the stamp didn't go anywhere, not until I used soap and rubbed hard. And the tip of the eyeliner itself is very thin, so it allows you to have a very slim line running along the lashes and it makes it look very natural, if that's something you're after. I'm very happy with the product!" —Teona S.
The Flick Stick comes from New Zealand-based brand and small biz Lovoir Beauty.

The set comes with one six-cell bin (for scarves and ties), an eight-cell bin (for underwear, briefs, and ties), a seven-cell bin for bras, and a 24-cell bin for socks.
Promising review: "I'm a Chief Virtual Organizer, so I offer organizing tips on my social media platforms. I used these storage bins to reorganize one of my drawers and it was the best decision ever. So much easier to find my stuff. I've posted before and after pictures so you can see for yourself (above).
I only used three of the bins in this project. The big one with several slots was used in another project to store my socks. So far, they feel sturdy enough and I haven't had any issues with them." —Deon Cecile

Promising review: "This shower curtain was a genius idea to whoever invented it. The pockets are huge and you don't have to worry about them getting moldy or gross because they're like a mesh material. Super easy to install. Helped me save a lot of room on my shower floor, lol. My sister and I both use this and it fits all of our stuff easily with room to spare. The quality is great, and the bottom pockets can easily fit liter bottles of shampoo." —Leah

Note: This will only work with metal charging cords, but it also comes with two magnetic cable collars you can add to make any cord compatible!
Promising review: "I bought two different cable wranglers: this one, and a more traditional model that relies on putting the cables in slots. This one is the clear winner. You can easily slap your cable end on the top of this, and it will stay put. When you want to use the cable, just grab it and pull, and it will come loose. The clever metallic clips that they provide to put on your cables make it even easier. We bought these for both sides of our bed and our desk. It keeps things tidy and easy." —Some Guy

Promising review: "Love this work surface. I was actually expecting it to be a lot bigger and bulkier and to my surprise it's fairly nice and compact. It holds your phone and tilts it at a perfect angle, even with a phone case. The mouse pad is large enough to easily navigate your screen without having to the lift the mouse and start in a new section. There are so many other lap work surfaces out there but what I love about this one is that it doesn't have that awkward cushion where your wrist sits. I wouldn't have that wrist pad working on a desk so I wasn't going to risk the awkwardness of having one attached to my work surface. This product is awesome. I can now comfortably work in bed on my laptop and have the convenience of having my mouse right there with me." —elizny

Promising review: "I was cautiously optimistic, but this tool is as effective as everyone is saying. My couches, and especially my recliner, look brand new. It takes little to no effort to use. Just use it in a 'scrubbing' type motion and it catches and traps the fur (and other small debris, such as crumbs...) in the little compartment. Pop it open, empty it out. Done." —Ian K.

The microfiber mop pad lasts for up to 30 uses and the vacuum lasts for up to 120 minutes on a single charge.
Promising review: "I wish I had gotten this years before. I had an old off-brand one that was noisy and hard to empty, so when I saw this on Prime at a good price, I gave it a try. Took two whole seconds to set up and have it working. I can control it from my phone and even have it set to vacuum if it detects my phone leaving the house. I have two dogs and a cat, so I mainly wanted it for shed hair. I send it around the house once or twice a day and it has really cut down on the hair on the floor. Easy to empty, too. If you need a vacuum, this one is great." —JCC

It uses crystal litter that's meant to absorb odor five times better than traditional clay litter. Each tray should last for up to one month, and a three-pack of refills can be purchased here.
Promising review: "I have a one-cat household, so I can’t speak for how well this product works with several cats. However! This litter box is amazing. I bought it because I am a cat owner who never ever wants to scoop a litter box, and I refuse to live in a place that smells like cat. This litter box helps me do exactly that. The odor control is amazing. I only start to smell it when it is ready to change the litter, and I only have to change the litter once a month like it advertises. It’s a quiet unit, and I never notice it clean itself." —Liz

It actually lets you open and close the garage from your phone, and it shows how long the door is open or closed. I was also able to connect it to my Nest camera and my Xfinity system, so that was a bonus. Works great and does what it says." —Snail

It works for meats cooked in the smoker, grill, rotisserie, oven, pan, and air fryer!
Promising review: "The Meater works so well, you hardly have to do anything while you cook any sort of meat. Once it alerts you the meat is ready, you remove it from any heat, and when the app says you’re ready to dig in, there’s no second guessing whether or not your meat is fully cooked. No under/overcooking with this; it’s perfect EVERY time. Couldn’t be more happy with this product and app." —Pam Walter

These lights are charged via USB-C cables (included!) and can also be set to always-on for longer tasks. After motion is detected and lights are activated, they'll automatically turn off once no motion is detected for 20 seconds. The lights are magnetic and can easily attach to magnetic surfaces OR you can use the included adhesive iron plates for installation in other areas.
Promising review: "These cabinet lights are exactly what I needed to brighten up my kitchen! They provide a warm, clear light that makes it so much easier to see inside my cabinets and find what I’m looking for, especially in the evenings. Installation was simple and the lights are energy efficient, which is a big plus. They have a sleek, modern design that fits perfectly without taking up space or looking bulky. If you want to upgrade your kitchen lighting and add both style and function, these cabinet lights are a fantastic choice!" —Sophia G

Promising review: "I've had this feeder for almost a year. It has saved me $100s of dollars in cat sitting fees and made my life easier since I don't have to worry about feeding my cat every day (my cat hides when the cat sitter comes, so not a big deal if she doesn't come every day now)... There is a lot of flexibility for the number of times per day for feedings and portion sizes for each of the feedings. It's great that it can be controlled from anywhere. The size of the food container is plenty big and I'd say enough for three weeks of food." —William R.

Promising reviews: "This stuff is remarkable! Soft, not gooey, easy to apply with sufficient hold, retains ability to hold down the fuzzies until washed out at next wash day. It has no smell that I could detect, and if I run my hand over the places I’ve smoothed down, it doesn’t feel oily or sticky like gels or hairspray. This is much easier to work with than many styling pastes, waxes, or creams that come in a round flat jar, because the application stick means it doesn’t build up under your fingernails while trying to tame the flyaways." —mamafirebird
"I have 4a-4b curls. When my hair is straight, there are a few spots that are a little frizzier than others, which, to me, isn't a big deal. Some flyaways, however, were the biggest reason why I got this. It lays the baby hairs and is a little bit of a heavier product. I will say, you just have to be careful if you're not used to using heavy product. The first time I used it, I just put a little in my hands and then put it where it was needed." —Jay

Promising review: "I was a bit skeptical, but these are a revelation. I wear glasses all the time, so they’re always getting grubby. I used to go through quite a lot of those cleaning cloths that you get free from the optician, but the Peeps has replaced them. Its results are as good, if not better than, a cleaning cloth, and it’s quicker and easier to use. It also cleans right to the edge of the lens less faffily than a cloth because of the firmness of the edge of the pad. It’s robust, feels nice in the hand and fits snugly into its case. In fact, it’s a joy to use. I’ve bought a couple for myself — one for home, one for the office — but I had to keep hiding them or my partner would make off with them, so I ended up buying her a couple too." —Tim
