9. A patio table mosquito net enclosure if those pesky pests are the only reason you haven't been able to enjoy your coveted outdoor space.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "We bought this for a rather large umbrella over our table in the backyard and used it for the first time last night. We were less concerned about mosquitoes because we have a service to eliminate them — it's the bees that were disturbing our outdoor meals and events. My wife hosted a few friends last night, and they all fell in love with this. They've all been fighting with bees lately, and they were not bothered once by any bugs. Every friend bought the netting on the spot – you're welcome to the company that manufactures this product. Also, when you're inside the netting sitting on chairs, it's almost as if the netting is invisible; most of the time, you can't tell whether it's even there, especially at night." —Sara Olshansky

Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in two colors).

It's also got a soft grip handle because taking care of your home's outward appearance shouldn't be physically taxing.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Promising review: "Doesn’t disrupt nearby plants. For weeds with long roots like bindweed, follow along the weed's root. You’ll get a feel for it with practice. The tip has a sharper angle than my last one, so it's good for cutting the roots of shallow-rooted plants. It’s a game-changer, for sure. Good, sturdy, well-made, and has a comfortable handle." —Hanna

Promising review: "Oh my god, I friggin' love this tool. I bought this on a whim, given my husband, and I bought our first house and know nothing about caring for a yard, and boy, has it come in handy. Our new house had a ton of weeds in the front yard, and this tool helped me get most of them out in no time. In fact, the process of yanking out the weed was strangely satisfying! I don't think anyone can say that weeding is fun, but this tool made it as close to fun as you can get." —JG

www.amazon.com

Backyard Expressions is a small biz!

Promising review: "I absolutely love this bird bath. I’ve been wanting a bird bath for a long time, but the heavy concrete or metal ones are so expensive, and I am not strong enough to lug that thing home. This is made out of plastic, but it looks real. I mean, it looks like it’s made out of sturdy heavy metal. It’s not! I can lift it up with one hand. It’s so light. It comes with three stakes that you use to put in the ground to hold it in place, and it does not move. I highly recommend this bird bath. I am so pleased. The only downside is that I have not seen any birds in it yet. But every morning when I look out the window, all the water is gone. I have figured out that the deer are coming and drinking all the water in the middle of the night. Oh well, I am an animal-lover, so I guess I’m OK with that. Oh, and it comes with this cute little bird that attaches to the side of it. It’s just adorable. 😊 Buy it." —BMR

Get it from Amazon for $28.50+ (available in three colors).

Promising review: "I bought this because I was looking for an effective insect repellent for my patio this spring/summer. I didn't want a bulky candle or tiki torch that smelled like canola oil. I found the Thermacell. It looked modern and promising. We tried it, and it works really well. It also produces no smell or sound. We live in the south, where mosquitoes are really awful, and the Thermacell made sitting on our patio tolerable! Definitely recommend." —Trusted Customer

24. An outdoor misting system that can be attached to an awning, patio table umbrella, pergola, and whatever else you've got in your backyard! Just screw one end onto your hose and clip the rest of the cord around your outdoor lounge area.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I love spending time outside, and we entertain on our patio, too. But when it's over 100 degrees outside, nobody feels like visiting. Until now!! I bought one and liked it so much I ordered another to cover both patios. They lower the temps to a more moderate level in just moments and don't use 100 gallons of water doing it! I put mine along the top of our privacy fence, and then put a fan behind it and made it almost like having an AC unit outside. They're easy to put up and take down and come with convenient hanging hooks! I read the reviews people wrote about the heads getting stopped up, and they WILL, but as a plumber, I'll tell you a trick to keeping them working like new: vinegar. Just remove the heads and soak them in a little straight vinegar, then use a small bristle brush like a toothbrush or nail brush, rinse them off, and replace them in the mister tubing, and they should be like brand-new." —Sonya Combs

True kiddos' furniture, the size is really up to 6 years old, depending on the little kids' size. Quality is decent for the age group, love the bright color, very lightweight for kiddos' use (due to that, do suggest putting it in a more closed space during windy days).
