1. A can of fume-free oven cleaner that's super easy to use to transform the inside of your oven. Just spray it, wait for it to dissolve, and then wipe it away. You'll be left with a spotless oven ready to take on whatever baking challenge you think of next.
2. A Ponyback hat specifically designed with a magnetic back opening that gives you the flexibility to wear your hair in a high ponytail one day and then down the next. Your hairstyle options shouldn't be so limited when you want to wear a hat.
Ponyback is a woman-owned small business that was started by Stacey Keller who was frustrated with the different hat options in the market, so she decided to create her own. This style is made from cotton and works for all hair types.
Promising review: "This hat is a game changer! I haven’t worn anything else since I got it. I have long hair that I wear up in a bun or pony tail, and no matter the height of either, this hat fits!! Next to my Dyson vacuum, this has been the greatest addition to my life! Go smaller I would say. I have bought several for friends and family and a small/medium seems to fit most." —Tyra L
Get it from Ponyback for $49 (available in youth size M/L and women's sizes XS–XXLG and in eight other colors).
3. A set of lotus trolley bags designed to fit exactly in a shopping cart. These will allow you to bag your groceries as you go and then swiftly put them in your car afterward to take home.
Promising review: "This product is a game changer for me. My grocery store has a self-scan app where you scan your own groceries and put them in the bag. When you're ready to check out, you just go up to a machine to pay. So, I put this in my cart and fill it up as I go. It’s just the best! I only have four bags to carry inside my house and everything is already sorted. Non grocery in a bag, cold stuff in the insulated bag, etc. It's so great not having plastic grocery bags to deal with anymore." —PictureNana
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in two color combinations).
4. An exfoliating scrub mitt you can use a couple of times a month to remove all the excess dead skin and particles on your skin that regular soap doesn't get to. It's also great for removing self tanner and can reduce ingrown hairs while also increasing circulation.
Promising review: "Game, freaking, changer!!! I can't tell you enough, how much I love this product. I have always dealt with bumpy, rough, and dry skin. My biggest adversary, SENSITIVE SKIN... So rough scrubbers, puffs, etc would make my skin very angry. I took a chance on these mitts, and I'm so glad I did. I think I removed roughly 37 lbs of dead skin off my body in the first week! My bumpy chicken skin is gone, I use way less lotion because my skin can actually soak it up, and my skin has never felt smoother! Again, GAME CHANGER!!❤" — Emily O.
Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (also available in a set of two).
5. A JetKids ride-on carry-on suitcase I'm pretty sure is about to become your new favorite product for traveling with kids. Not only does it have wheels, but it's designed so your toddler can sit on it, making it easy for you to wheel them through the airport. Then when you get on the flight, it easily transforms into a leg rest or in-flight bed to keep your kids comfy while in the air. How neat is that???
It's recommended for kids ages 3–7 and fits most standard economy seats. Plus, it has an adjustable strap so you can carry it over your shoulder, a top handle, and a mattress inside that can be removed and used while in the flight. Parents have even used this product while in the airport waiting for the flight to keep their kids comfy and happy.
Promising reviews: "This was a game changer for our travel with little ones. You will not be disappointed" —J and C Bernal
"Traveling with a toddler is always a challenge, but comfort is key, and this little magic package makes the airport trip that much smoother. We can store small toys, pillow, and one throw blankets for our family of three. Great idea and great buy. We will be using this until it breaks." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $199 (available in two colors).
6. A pair of AirPod ear hooks to give you some extra security when you wear your AirPods out in public or to work out. The look slides right on to the end and stays comfortable on your ears because AirPods are only so amazing if you don't lose them.
Promising review: "Game changer!! We all know how expensive AirPods are, so naturally you want to protect your investment. I initially purchased the magnetic strap, and even with basically wrapping it around my neck, it still continued to constantly fall out of my ears while working out. So I looked for other options, and came across these. These things are magical!! They fit and stayed comfortably behind my ears while working out. They didn't budge or fallout, and they DO fit my AirPod Pros just fine. My only suggestion is to put the piece you place inside the AirPod at the very bottom, so you can still access the functions on the pods. Best $9 I've spent money on. I will be ordering another set as a backup replacement👍🏽" — Nelly
Get a pair from Amazon for $10.49.
7. The "ultimate" sports bra with more than 18,000 5-star reviews raving about how it fits all different bodies and keeps boobs, no matter how big or small, in place. What makes it "ultimate," you ask? It's made with two-way stretch fabric to reduces bounce, has a front zipper that makes it easy to take on and off, and adjustable shoulder straps for extra support.
This woman-founded business that has been making customizable sports bras since 2010. You can customize not only the fit of the bra but also the support.

Promising review: "As a girl always being heavy chested, it was so amazing to see a bra that wasn’t just once size fits all. FINALLY, a bra that I can EASILY adjust, comfortable and supportive. It's totally a game changer. I can jump and run with no problem at all! I LOVE THIS BRA!" —Angela A.
Get it from Shefit for $75 (available in women's sizes XS-6Luxe and in eight colors and patterns).
8. A bottle of Drop It made to remove the sulfates and tannins from your glass of pinot noir, meaning you can enjoy a glass (or two) knowing you won't wake up with a wicked headache the next morning.
It's more cost-effective and environmentally friendly than other competitors because one bottle can be used up to 55 times. To use, add one to two drops in each glass of white one, two to three for each glass of red, or seven to nine to a whole bottle. Swirl it for 20 seconds after you put it in, and the glass is ready to drink.
Promising review: "I don't often write reviews, except when something goes beyond my expectations and really works. And this stuff does!! I won't lie, I love wine and drink a lot of it, despite having an allergy to sulfites/tannins that often gives me massive migraines and nasal congestion to the point I can't breathe in my nose. For years, I have taken an allergy pill when I drink wine. It helps a bit, but never is a total cure. I was recently relenting to the idea of just giving up my love of wine. I've tried other products that claim to reduce these effects, and they never made much difference. I took a chance and tried this. To my surprise, it really worked! Just a few drops in each glass of wine, and even after a few glasses, for the first time in years, I didn't get a massive headache or congestion later in the evening or the next morning! This is a real game changer for me. I will be repurchasing again and again." —R-Laren
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
9. Wad-Free, which is about to change your laundry life. Don't believe me? This seemingly boring square thing attaches to the corners of your sheets to help them dry faster, be less wrinkled, and stop them from encompassing everything in the dryer into a tangled mess. It's a pretty ~neat~ tool, if I do say so myself.
Plus, they're BPA-free, reusable, and created by a small business during the pandemic.
Promising review: "I didn't think there was a way to make the chore of washing sheets enjoyable. However, using the Wad-Free and avoiding the time and energy associated with unwinding bound up sheets that have formed into a burrito during both the wash cycle and the dry cycle, is a game changer. Now, I actually anticipate taking my sheets out of both the washer and dryer without having to go through that ridiculous exercise.
If this at all resonates with you, then you need to give this product a try. Believe me, it will transform your sheet-washing experience and have you doing the Wad-Free happy dance. :)" —Amazon Customer
Get a set of two from Amazon for $18.99.
10. A portable blender so you can make a delicious smoothie in seconds anywhere. Yep, you read that right, *anywhere*. We're talking at work, home, on the street, at the gym. You name it, you can do it.
This 14-ounce jar is dishwasher-safe and charges with a USB. Plus, it's quiet, so you don't have to worry about annoying the people around it when you use it.
Promising review: "This portable blender is a total game changer for me. I love how easy it works, that it is portable, and how quickly it blends. I am going to be taking this with me daily. I'm so excited and happy with my purchase! I put in cucumber, banana, raspberries, almond milk, and protein powder, and it blended up smoothly. The only tip would be to make sure you put the powder in the center so it doesn't stick to the sides but that's with any blender. Happy customer!" —Tara
Get it from Amazon for $36.99+ (available in five colors).
11. A Bissell multi-purpose portable cleaner pretty much guaranteed to gross you out because of all the dirt and gunk it will pull out from the furniture and upholstery in your home. Reviewers have used this to save their couches, rugs, stairs, car seats, and more.
Promising review: "This is a game changer!!!! I have kids, two dogs, and a white couch. Prior to buying this, I was so stressed about trying to keep the couch clean. It had some stains I had tried everything on that just weren’t budging, and I was contemplating buying a new couch all together. Then I found this, and, let me tell you, it got the allll the lingering stains out and has tackled every mess that I’ve tested it on. I’m talking marker, mud, pudding, and coffee, just to name a few. Money well spent." —Jessica Gilman
Get it from Amazon for $108.59.
12. A laptop stand to take your productivity to ~new heights~. JK, we can't guarantee it will do that, but improving your posture and not straining your eyes as much will help you feel better at the end of the day.
Promising review: "This is an absolute game changer now that I am working from home. It helps my posture and the colors match my MacBook Pro almost exactly if you don't hyper examine it. It does have a little extra shine, but it is still matte. The stand is very sturdy and has quickly become a favorite to use any time I use my Mac." —George Araiza
Get it from Amazon for $39.90+ (available in two styles and in four colors).
13. A zipper puller here to be your new BFF when you're alone and realize the dress you want to wear has a zipper in that back, making it almost impossible to twist your arms to get all the way up. No need to fret (and sweat) anymore because this handy gadget will grab the zipper, and you can be on your way.
Promising review: "This is a total game-changer product. I discovered the handy Zipuller while searching around Amazon, reading product descriptions and reviews. I couldn’t be happier! Recently, I took a leap of faith when I bought this fabulously sexy jumpsuit for my vacation in Jamaica. To think I almost didn’t buy it because I thought I would need help with the back zipper. Now, just like that, I am delighted knowing I can confidently dress myself. I highly recommend this must-have gadget!" —Cynthia S.
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in three colors).
14. A touchless stationary vacuum to revolutionize the way you sweep because you'll never had to deal with a flimsy dustpan again. All you have to do is sweep the debris toward the vacuum, and it will instantly suck it up for you. Genius!
An indicator light will turn on to let you know that the canister is full, and then you can remove the canister and dump the debris in the trash.
Promising review: "Chore? What chore? Sweeping becomes fun! This is a game changer for everyone, but especially for those tired of bending over with a dustpan! My whole large first floor is hardwood. That’s a back breaker for sweeping and using a dustpan. The EyeVac has been the BEST home 'gadget' I’ve ever invested in. It has incredible suction. It's easy to turn on when I get to sweeping. And there is an indicator light for when it is full and needs to be emptied. Brilliant. It’s small enough to have out and designed well enough to look at and not wonder why some appliance is left out. I’m so very happy with the EyeVac." —Nancy Cowan
Get it from Amazon for $114 (available in six colors).
15. A migraine stick you can keep in a safe place and quickly grab when you feel a headache coming on to help stop it in its tracks before it ruins your whole day.
It's made of a mix of peppermint, spearmint, and lavender oils to ease tension.
Promising review: "I have been suffering from almost daily headaches since I was 10 years old, and have been popping ibuprofen like candy since too, BUT THIS PRODUCT IS A TOTAL GAME CHANGER!! I have never written a review but I am now because I hope this helps someone like me. I was skeptical at first because I didn't believe essential oils would actually work but I put it on as soon as I feel pain, five minutes later, any pain is gone! Truly a miracle product!!" —Brett
Get it from Amazon for $11.99.
One of my BuzzFeed Shopping colleagues swears by this! Read her full review of the Migrastil migraine stick here.
16. A set of scrubbing attachments you'll want to constantly take for a ~spin~, because they will get everything so darn clean without causing your arm to hurt from too much scrubbing after.
Promising review: "I cannot believe how quickly I was able to clean my bathroom tiles with this. Usually it takes me hours to clean the grout between the tiles. This is a total game changer! It saved me so much manual effort and time, and left my bathroom sparkly clean!" —Aank
Get it from Amazon for $14.95+ (available in five colors).
17. Essence's Lash Princess mascara to take your lashes to new ~heights~ and make people think you're wearing falsies, when in fact, all you did was swipe on some mascara.
Promising review: "Okay y’all. I was skeptical that this mascara would do anything to lift my lashes. I have long natural lashes but they stick straight out and I normally have to curl them before mascara to lift them, and even then they still get weighed down and lose lift after mascara is applied. This did a TON for my lashes with NO CURLING REQUIRED. This mascara is a total game changer, and I’m so excited to add it to my daily beauty routine...while also nixing the lash curler completely!" —Krissy L.
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
18. A microwave popper here to make your next movie night better than ever before. (Yes, it is possible.) You'll never have to buy microwave bags again because this gadget makes delicious, homemade popcorn with fresh butter in a matter of minutes. Delicious!!
I should know, I only this to make popcorn now. With one of these, I'm able to make as much or as little popcorn as I want, whenever I want. It's convenient and easy to use.
Promising review: "Game changer! I've been using the popper for a few weeks and wish I knew about it sooner. Goodbye to all of the extra packaging of the prepackaged bags. Now I can make popcorn without the additives of the bagged kind. Hooray!" —Soccer Mom
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in 22 colors).
19. A set of dermaplaning razors designed to be a quick way for you to shape your eyebrows, remove any unwanted hair, and just get smooth skin without having to make another appointment and spend more time in a salon chair.
Promising review: "I wanted to try dermaplaning because my sensitive skin gets really dry in the winter. Between that and the soft peach fuzz on my face, my makeup wasn’t sitting on my skin well. I initially purchased a $10 pack of razors, and I was extremely disappointed because they weren’t sharp at all and barely did anything. I decided to give it another shot and try these. And WOW. These are super sharp and took the peach fuzz and dead skin off easily. I also LOVE the eyebrow cap. I don’t think I’ll ever wax my eyebrows or upper lip again. This thing was a total game changer and only $5!" —Amazon Customer
Get a set of three from Amazon for $4.99.
20. A Luminoodle, which is a LED lighting strip you place around the back of your TV. It will brighten up the whole viewing experience by creating a sharper image, increasing color contrast, *and* reducing eye strain.
This can be great, especially if you're staring at the TV for hours on end. It has 15 color and 10 brightness levels, plus three fade modes.
Promising reviews: "Don’t mess around with the other lights with complicated remotes and colors, just get a warm 6500 white, and plug it in. Easy. Some people say one strip across the back is fine... maybe if you have a small tv, if you have 55” or bigger get one that is long enough for at least three sides. This light is a serious game changer, reduces eye stress, makes the contrast and blacks appear better, and the wow factor when people see it. You don’t have to tell anyone it was only $10!! Again don’t waste money on colors and another remote to clutter your room, spend it on length. And get this light!!" —kristian suson
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in eight sizes).
21. A Diamond Dazzle Stik, because you can only keep using the phrase "shine bright like a diamond" if your diamonds actually do shine bright. And this small pen will completely transform your rings and make them look brand-new (or even better than brand new).
Promising review: "I read a lot of BuzzFeed Shopping, because I have to admit that I am an Amazon shopaholic, and they have the best suggestions ever. Anyways. I always encounter this product in almost every article, and I thought that this is just overrated. But heck, did I have one of the most **dazzling** surprises in my life. This little pen is a game changer. I followed the instructions on the label, and as I was rinsing my ring under the tap, I just have to gasp. My engagement ring is new; just a little more than six months old but oh the shine. You can really see the difference. How did I live before this stick?!?" —ErikaCH
Get it from Amazon for $7.98
22. An EZ Off Jar Opener you can place under a cabinet to give you a hand at opening any jars (or even water bottles). You'll never have to struggle and abandon your dinner plans again because you can't get your spaghetti sauce open...
Not talking from experience...not at all... This little gadget can not only open jars but also other hard lids (like on plastic bottles). It's great for people with limited mobility and comes highly recommended with more than 5,000 5-star reviews. It's easy to use — just put what needs to be opened in the corner and twist.
Promising review: "I’ve purchased electronic, battery operated, and manual openers for twist tops. I have arthritis, and this opener is a game changer for me. I’ve been able to open all size twist jars (even lids stuck shut with jam). I give it to friends and have told those I know with arthritis about it. I would buy again." —Ann H.
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
23. A set of magnetic locks for anyone who needs to baby proof their home but doesn't want it to scream "EVERYTHING IS BABY-PROOFED." These hidden locks are actually installed using tape (to not damage the wood) and make it so your little one can't open the drawer or cabinet.
The set comes with 12 locks that have strong 3M double-sided tape on the back and two keys.
Promising review: "We have a toddler and have moved several times since she started getting into things. Every time I'm stuck installing child locks that require hardware or squeezing fingers into tight spots to operate. These are a huge improvement on every front. Install in moments, adhere wonderfully, and the magnet key is a game changer. Not to mention, the ability to disable the lock when you know you're going to be in and out of the cabinet for a bit. Can't recommend enough." —Jared
Get a set from Amazon for $33.99.
24. A universal nail polish bottle handle to give you a ~hand~ while painting your nails by giving you more control. Both hands will come out looking like you got a professional mani.
I'm a big fan of this nail polish bottle handle, aka "The Poppy," and so are some of my colleagues. I know I'm not the only one that struggles to paint my nails with my non-dominant hand. And this thing really does help. It fits on the bottle after you remove the over-cap and really stabilizes the brush and makes it easier to hold in your hand, thus making it easier to get an even coat. This means both hands come out beautiful. Trust me — it really does make a difference.
Promising review: "This is a game-changing product! Painting with my non-dominant hand is so much easier and looks so much better than it's ever been! I'll never paint without it again!" —rebecca h.
Get it from Olive & June for $16.
25. A pair of wireless sleep headphones so you can listen to music, a podcast, or even white noise to help you fall asleep without having to lay on uncomfortable earbuds that die in the middle of the night and wake you up in a panic with the "doo doot" sound.
The headphones connect via Bluetooth and have 33 feet of wireless range (meaning your phone doesn't have to be right next to you). The controls are on the forehead, which makes it comfortable for back and side sleepers, and they are made to block out ambient noise.
Promising review: "I usually never write reviews, but, hot damn, these are a game changer! I sleep on my side and the speakers are comfortable to lay on. My only criticism is that the control panel should be padded somehow because it can get uncomfortable on for forehead/hairline area, but not so much that you can't fall asleep/renders them unusable." —Monique Vego
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in nine colors).
26. A halter brami (bra + cami), which means this is the only thing you have to put on to feel comfortable and supported all day long. Gone are the days when you struggle to even find the right bra that will lay nice or succumb to wearing an uncomfortable strapless bra.
Klassy Network is a woman-owned small biz known for their Brami (bra + cami) tops. They also sell blouses, bottoms, swimwear, and eyewear.
Promising review: "As a person who will find any reason not to wear a bra and especially a strapless one (whew!!), I consider this to be a game changer. Not to mention the support it gives actually makes it look like you’re wearing a bra, which I’ve never ever found before. Cant wait for the restock to purchase more!" —Cayla
Get it from Klassy Network for $27.99 (originally $39.99; available in women's sizes XS-3X and in nine colors).

Promising review: "This hand cream is a game changer. I spent so much money on hand creams and nothing helped my cracked/bleeding fingers until I found this. This is the only product that made a difference right after I started using it. two to three days later my fingers were almost 100% healed. Wish I had tried this earlier." —MB_NYC

Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
29. A shower curtain liner you ~clearly~ need to store the products in your shower instead of clustering them together on the side of the tub. You always hope they all won't all topple over when you grab your shampoo, but who am I kidding, they def always fall in the tub. UGH
Promising review: "We are apartment living, so no one in the household could take a shower without crash/boom as you're knocking something down sitting on a shelf or the bathtub rim. This is a game changer. There are so many pockets with so much room in each I actually have space left over. My husband's back scrubber, my shampoo and hair care, my daughter's bubble baths, bath floofies, all fit with room to spare. And the pockets are all a nice height so I'm not crouching to find anything. The curtain is clear, so I didn't have to change the 'pretty' one for decorative purposes. I am super pleased." —goodnite.graci
Get it from Amazon for $24.55.
30. A smart-toaster worth the splurge because it will make you feel like you're living in the year 3000. Sure, you might not be living underwater, but you will have more than 60 settings on the touchscreen to choose from to toast your bread, English muffins, Pop-Tarts and more to the exact level you desire.
There's also a countdown clock that will alert you when your toast is almost ready! I actually got to try this toaster and shared it with my parents who were in desperate need for a new toaster. Every time I'm at their house, I end up using it because it's so great. The touchscreen is super easy to use. You select what color brown you want you toast, and in no time, it's ready to go. I love how their are so many different options because all breads do not toast equally!!
BuzzFeed writer Rachel Dube also owns this gadget and says: "What's not to *love* about a functional appliance? It's meant to perfectly heat each individual item, thanks to the fact that it adjusts to their shape. When I used to use my old toaster, I would have to play around with the temperature *and* keep an eye on it the entire time. This lets me just walk away and will pop out the food when it's done the way I selected on the screen." Read her full review of the Revolution Cooking Smart-Toaster here.
Promising review: "This toaster is a game changer! I don't know how to explain how it does it, but the bread comes out crispy, browned, but still chewy on the inside and full of flavor. The bread isn't dried out, and it's perfect for sandwiches and bagels. Buy this toaster!" —Jonathan Beam

34. A pack of Mighty Patch pimple spot treatment to basically work magic on your acne. Simply apply one to the spot before bed, and it will work as you sleep to pull out all the gunk in your pimple. You'll wake up to smaller, less red zit.
Promising review: "These patches are a game changer for adult cystic acne. My type of acne is deep, stubborn, and can stay on my face for weeks to months. This patch does one of two things for my zits: after placing overnight, it either completely makes it disappear or can make it angry, but the next day it comes to a whitehead to drain. It has turned my stubborn zit time on my face to only a couple of days. A note — when placing patch I give medium pressure on the patch directly on the lesion. I gently peel the outside parts of patch that surround the lesion because the first couple of times I applied and didn’t raise the edges up I had a redness surrounding the lesion making my zit look even worse." —lstraz

Promising review: "This is a game changer in the kitchen! It is one of the BEST inventions I've ever seen.

Buy with confidence!" —theSundanceKid

Promising review: "This thing has been a game changer. I’ve been working from home for over a month now at my kitchen table and with herniated discs and other nerve pain issues in my hips, sitting all day in my kitchen chairs was really taking a toll. I used a memory foam pillow for a cushion for a while and it definitely helped but I was still hurting. This thing has completely resolved my pain from sitting in that chair for hours on end. Some reviews said it goes completely flat pretty quickly but that has not been my experience. I haven’t had any issues with it going flat or anything. It has really been a lifesaver." —Martha

Promising review: "I am not a fan of 'extra gadgets' in the kitchen. They clutter things up as far as I am concerned. But this truly is a game changer for my hard-boiled eggs. I have tried EVERY method in the book for hard boiling. This cooks them perfectly — no gray rings. They peel with no struggles at all! The only drawback is that you can only do six at a time, but it goes so quickly that I don't even mind that all. Easy to use, easy to clean. You won't be disappointed in this gadget — it does what it is meant to do perfectly! —Sarah Z

38. An acupressure anti-nausea wristband to make nausea and motion/morning sickness disappear so you can go on with your day without feeling awful and fighting the urge to throw up.
The band applies pressure on the P6 acupressure point that is said to help relieve nausea and vomiting.
Promising review: "My 12-year-old normally gets car sick within five minutes of traveling. I purchased these for our five hour road trip (along with chewable dramamine), and while we initially used both the bracelet and dramamine, we discovered that just the bracelet was sufficient to keep him from getting sick. Definitely a game changer. I am ordering another set to stick in my husband's car as well. This product is definitely worth the price." —BookWorm

39. A Hairbrella small enough to fold up and keep in your purse so you never get caught out and about when a rainstorm hits and you know it's going to ruin your hair. The satin-lined hat also protects against snow, humidity, wind, and anything else mother nature decides to send your way.
Hairbrella is a Black-owned small business that has been creating fashionable hats that protect hair from all kinds of weather since 2016.
Promising review: "It’s lightweight, compact, and easily stored until I need it. It often gets wind sucked into it, which doesn’t create the best look. But for someone who HATES umbrellas, it’s been a game changer!" —Raymona Ellison
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in nine colors).
40. A carpet cleaning solution capable of transforming the carpet you just assumed was brown when you moved in but is actually a nice light beige color instead. 😳
This cleaning solution is made Sunny & Honey — a family-run small business that specializes in cleaning products, especially ones for homes with pets!
Promising review: "With a three-year-old, three dogs, and a husband who loves to wear his work boots all the time, our 12-year-old carpet has seen many spills, accidents, vomit, grease and dirt from everyone. I needed something that was gonna take care of everything. This REALLY WORKS!!!! My house smells better and looks a million times better, and I'm not embarrassed to have the lights on in the living room with company over anymore. I am so happy with this product, and the result. It has been a game changer for sure!!! I will purchase again!" —Denise H

41. A Takeya cold brew maker so you can make your favorite beverage at home. Then you can keep it in your fridge and pour yourself a glass when that 3 p.m. slump hits, and you need to make it through the rest of the afternoon.
Plus, it's so easy to make! Just add six tablespoons of your favorite coffee in the filter, fill it with water, and let it sit in your fridge for 24 hours. Then just take the filter out of the pitcher and enjoy your coffee!
Promising review: "I love this!! I had such a bad Starbucks addiction that was racking up the bill every month. I decided to give making it myself a go with this, and it’s been a game changer! So simple to use, coffee tastes great, easy to clean. I have saved a ton of money and don’t have to go anywhere for it! Would encourage anyone to buy this, so user-friendly" —Katie

42. A Marshmallow Whip Maker so you can ~whip~ up your favorite face cleanser and turn it into a cup of frothy foam. Not only does this cause your cleaner to last longer, but the texture can also reduce friction on your face. Plus, it looks incredibly cool and fun!
To use, add a pearl-sized drop of cleanser, fill the container with water to the dotted line, and pump into it's foam.
Promising review: "I honestly thought this was a gimmick, but for $8, I thought 'why not'. i recently been trying a cleaner that dries my skins but works super good at keeping my acne away. I just wished it was more gentle. I was originally going to settle on a foam soap dispenser but the 'luxurious foam' this product promised will give me caught my attention. I'M SO GLAD I MADE THE PURCHASE! Honestly, it's a game changer. You could even use liquid cleansers instead of creamy ones. The foam you get from this compared to a foam soap dispenser is 100% better. This foam makes me feel like I'm cleaning with a cleaner and not just bubbles. 10/10 all the way." —Johnny Guido

43. A handheld vacuum that makes it super easy to get rid of the pet hair on your couch (and every other surface) once and for all.
Promising review: "This vacuum is a game changer. I live in the mountains with three dogs. I had just come to accept that dog hair is part of my life. Then I discovered this little miracle. All three of my dog beds have sheepskin pelts on top of them. Have you ever tried to get dog hair off of sheepskin? The Bissell Pet Hair Eraser is the first thing that has ever been able to remove dog hair from my dog’s beds. I have tried eight other vacuums. They are worthless at TRULY removing dog hair from rugs, couches, bedding, etc. This little Bissell is restoring my house and getting rid of years of dog hair left behind by other devices. I did not think I would ever get rid of all the hair....until now. I am so happy I bought this little miracle vacuum. Thank you, Bissell." —plastics
Get it from Amazon for $30.99.
44. A toothbrush holder and dispenser going viral on TikTok for a reason — it cleans up counter space and also makes it easier for kids (and adults alike) to get toothpaste on the brush.
This bad boy includes a toothpaste dispenser (that'll squeeze out every last ounce!), four cups and holders, and a place to store your toothbrushes.
Promising review: "Game changer! I'm mad at myself for having not purchased this sooner. Keeps the counter clear, keeps the toothpaste mess to a minimum, and allows the toddler to independently prep his toothbrush (doubling down minimal mess). The pump dispenses the perfect amount of toothpaste. The cups on top act as a convenient and functional space to hold all of our flossers. Magnetic cups work as a great resource for the kids to all rinse the sink out nicely after use. Couldn't recommend this enough." —Mike Allegrini
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in three colors).
45. A Revlon One-Stop Hair Dryer & Volumizer — you'll be ~blown~ away by the results. It will make it super easy to get a salon-worthy blowout at home while also cutting down on the time it takes to do your hair. And that, my friends, is a win-win.
This brush has hype with more than 219,000 (!!!) 5-star ratings, and it really does live up to it. The oval brush design smooths the hair and the round edges create volume — leaving you with a salon-worthy blowout at home. It also has two heat and speed settings and a cool option.
Promising review: "All I can say is WOW!🤩 I have seen this product sponsored by so many influencers on IG, and I honestly was skeptical because they already had beautiful hair before styling. I have thick course/frizzy/wavy hair that is so dry at the ends (heat damage from straightening it too much). My hairstyling routine literally would take me half an hour or so to dry after wash, end up looking like Hermoine after, then an hour to straighten to just get somewhat flat. I ordered this and used it tonight after my shower, and it took me 15 minutes to dry/style! My husband and I were honestly shocked. This is such a game changer. I'm BEYOND thrilled with it😍🤩" —EarthToGabbs
Promising review: "This is a game changer for my 4c kinky-coily hair. This dryer cuts my drying and straightening time to just 20–25 minutes! I part my hair in four sections, apply my heat protectant, and use this dryer and in no time my hair is straightened! This hairdryer is comfortable and practical to use. I highly recommend for textured hair!" —Lisa
Get it from Amazon for $34.88+ (available in three colors).
46. A weekly, bleach-free shower spray you simply spray in your shower, leave overnight, and rise the next day. Yes, this cleaner is basically the set it and forget it of shower cleaners.
Promising review: "This is a game changer. If you have a glass panel in you bathroom and stainless steal shower panel, then you need this. It does the work for you. Just leave it overnight and rinse it in the morning and all soap and hard water stains are gone! Amazing!" —SIMARA
Get it from Amazon for $16.89.
47. A Yonanas fruit soft-serve maker with the power to transform any frozen fruit into an enjoyable ice cream or sorbet texture. Reviewers with dietary restrictions swear by this gadget!
Promising review: "Game changer. I love this product. It makes a perfect, tasty dessert in just one minute. All you have to do is freeze your fruit, put in the machine and voila! Dessert is ready! Amazing!" —ApolloCali
Get it from Amazon for $45.40.
48. The Cozee, a battery-powered heated blanket you can take with you anywhere from camping to soccer games and stay toasty warm — no cords required.
The blanket comes with cables to charge it in either a car or home, plus two USB ports.
Promising review: "We love this product, and we wish we would have had it for all our outdoor sporting events over the years with our kids. It is game-changing just for that aspect. The key to getting it really warm is to 'pre-heat' it...and then sit 'in' the blanket as opposed to having the blanket laid over you...once you sit in it have the blanket wrapped around you and trap the heat that you’ll have to turn it down." —JKR
