1. A Take-n-Slide medication tracker reviewers swear by for staying on top of their medication. After you take your pill, you simply slide that day of the week over, and you'll know for sure that you've taken it for the day. No more questioning if you took your pill this morning or if you just remember taking it yesterday morning. 🧐
Promising reviews: "Great idea! I take one pill a day, which is not enough to justify filling one of those weekly caddies. This is a simple solution to stick on to my pill bottle. Perfect." —bob
"Where has this been all my life? I love it. This is a lifesaver! I’ve been looking for something like this for years. I always forget 10 minutes later if I actually took my medicine or just put it down. I’ve tried so many different ways, making marks on the bottle, making stickers, and other pill containers. None ever work. And pill containers are so bulky when I only need one pill." —Niki
Get a pack of five from Amazon for $19.99.
2. Or a weekly pill organizer if you have multiple medications to stay on top of. It's designed with push-through silicone lids to make it easy to organize your meds at the beginning of the week. Each day can be removed from the base, so if you're going on a quick weekend trip, you don't need to lug your whole pill collection with you. There's also a free app that will remind you to take your pills every day!
Sagely is a family-owned small business who spent three years designing this pill storage solution.
Promising review: "I would not call this a traveling pill caddy, but for home use, it is fantastic!!! So much fun to use placing the pills on top and when you see that all of them are lined up, just push them into the container. Great idea. Its quite large, so don't buy it if you don't have the room on your counter or table or whatever. I love it for home use." —D. Angstreich
Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in four colors).
3. An EZ Off jar opener, because I can't be the only one who's abandoned making dinner and simply ordered takeout because I couldn't get a jar open.
This little gadget can not only open jars, but also other hard lids (like on plastic bottles). Just put it in the corner and twist for easy opening.
Promising review: "This is a great idea. Works perfect. Hides under upper cabinets. Ideal for older folks that don't have a strong grip anymore. Seems to work on any lid so far. The adhesive pads are just for temporary placement not for permanent mounting. Depending on your cabinet construction, you might need a slightly longer screw." —JacobHHR
Get it from Amazon for $18.55.
4. A set of soda "lids" designed to attach to your can to keep your drink fresh and bubbly no matter how long it takes you to enjoy it. Plus, it makes it more portable so you can take it with you anywhere, even the beach or park.
Promising review: "Love these! Such a great idea! Easy to put on and take off. Great for taking soda and beer cans outside or to the beach. I shared with my coworkers, and they liked them so much that they bought some, too. I recommend trying!!" —sd109
Get a set of six from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in six color combo sets and also 12-packs).
5. 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 drier 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: "This is such a great idea. My sheets wash and dry without getting tangled. No 'lost' pillowcases. No having to untangle just to dry some more. Love it!" —Kay McDowell
Get a set of two from Amazon for $19.99.
6. A 3-in-1 foldable magnetic wireless charger with spaces to charge your iPhone, AirPods, *and* Apple Watch at the same time. It also folds up small, which makes it super easy to travel with. Leave that mess of cables behind because once you try this charger, you'll never go back.
Promising review: "Such a great idea! Replaces a big USB brick and cables. What a great product this is. I typically carry a big USB charger brick and a bunch of cables to charge my devices when I travel. Not anymore. I just bring this, and it charges my phone, watch, and AirPods. Bonus: You don't need to buy an Apple Watch charging cable to make this work like pretty much any other Apple Watch charging stand." —Sam Dowd
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in nine colors).
7. A Bracelet Mate so you're never stuck home alone struggling to put on a bracelet by yourself.
Promising reviews: "Very helpful! Great idea." —WL
"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
Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in four colors).
8. A Saucemoto dip clip about to transform your next road trip (and the one after that, too). This genius thing clips into your air vent and holds all different sizes of sauces, so you can dip your nuggets and fries while still keeping your eyes on the road.

9. Baby food pouch tops you can attach to your tot's favorite food puree or applesauce so they can't squeeze all of the contents out and all over the high chair, car seat, or wherever they're enjoying it.
Promising review: "This is a really great product. I have had to be in the car for long trips with my children, and these are great! They really do work. You may want to keep a watchful eye if your child is teething though. My 11-month-old decided to chew it and ripped the opening rendering it useless to stop him from squeezing the entire contents out. Anyway, this has worked perfectly 9.5 out of 10 times for us! Such a great idea!" —Emily
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in five color combos).
10. A set of ceiling fan pulls to make it incredibly easy for you to know which chain is for the light and which is for the fan. Plus, the chains add over a foot of length to your existing pulls, so you don't have to grab a ladder just to turn the fan on.
11. A cooler light so you can easily grab a hard seltzer without ~fishing~ your hand around the cold ice water for a good five minutes till you find your favorite flavor. It has an auto-shutoff after 20 seconds, so you won't drain the battery. Plus, it will impress your friends who open your cooler and immediately exclaim, "How ~cool~ is that?!?"
One charge is good for 60 hours of white light and up to 31 hours of red light.
Promising review: "Great idea! I should have bought more. You will want one for each cooler and a couple extra to give to friends you camp with because they will wish they had some too. Works as described and great price." —Chairien
Get it from Amazon for $13.23.
12. A freezer tray to store the extra herbs you buy when your recipe calls for four tablespoons of fresh parsley...but the grocery store only sells it in bushels meant to serve hundreds.
13. A magnetic air fryer cheat sheet that somehow makes your favorite kitchen device EVEN BETTER. With this nearby, you'll never have to second guess if your food has actually been cooked enough.
Promising reviews: "This is such a great idea. I don’t always need a recipe just the timing." —Darrell
"Bought an air fryer several months ago which I haven't used a whole lot because it came with only a few recipes but not enough info on other items to cook. The Lotteli cheat sheet gives you cooking times and temperatures for a lot of your common everyday foods in a magnetized easy-to-read, two-sheet combo that fills in where air fryer pamphlet that came with the unit leaves out. I also bought an air fryer cook book but this only comes with specific recipes, whereas the cheat sheet fills in the void for quick basic needs. Very happy with this purchase! 😁" —B. FRANK SMITH
Get it from Amazon for $11.29+ (available in two colors, in two bundle options, and one Spanish option).
14. 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: "This is a great idea. I used to fall asleep with earbuds on and search for them in my bed in the morning. These are great and more comfortable to wear while going to sleep." —Lynn p
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in 15 colors).

Promising review: "What a simple solution to such an annoying problem! Great idea that works like a champ. It takes a bit to figure out how to put on the strap by myself, but easy when husband can do it for me. Sweet product!" —JK
Get a set of three from Amazon for $8.97+ (available in nine color combinations).
16. A bacon sponge for green solution to getting rid of excess grease from foods like bacon. It is made with organic cotton "unpaper" towel and is reusable and compostable. Sunday brunch will never be the same.
This woman-owned small biz is based in Denver, Colorado.
Promising review: "Great idea! I don't fry foods often but when I do, I hate that I have to use so many paper towels to soak up the grease. These sponges are excellent for absorbing grease, and they are easy to clean, too! I followed the instructions to soak the oil-filled sponges in soapy water and then place them in the washer. The sponges came out clean and ready to use again. I also love that I can recycle the sponges when they are worn. Two sponges were sufficient to fry one package of bacon. Clever idea!" —Farrah
Get it from Green City Living from Amazon Handmade for $14.99.
17. A hybrid scrunchie towel reviewers love because it helps dry hair faster without having to wear a big towel around. You can put your wet hair up while you do your makeup or even run some errands, and when you take it down, it won't be sopping wet still.

Promising review: "I tie my long hair up on the top of my head in a bun with this towel scrunchie while I do my makeup, and it absorbs a lot of water! I keep it in for about 10 minutes, and my blow dry time is usually cut in half. Great idea; so glad I bought these!" —Angela G

18. A door draft stopper you're going to appreciate so much once summer rolls around and all your precious air conditioning stays exactly where you want it — in your house. It'll also stop tiny critters from crawling their way into your humble abode.
19. A backseat hook you attach to the seat in your car for a super convenient place to set your purse or grocery bags. Never again will you take a sharp turn and immediately regret it because the entire contents of your purse have spilled over the backseat.
Promising review: "Where have these been all my life? I love that these allow you to hang a purse in an easy to reach place and keep the contents from spilling over your car. Yesterday, I used on of the hooks to transport a bag with two bottles of wine. They didn't roll around the car and arrived safely! Such a great idea!" —Cabushka
Get a set of two from Amazon for $7.95 (available in two colors).
20. A luggage-mounted cup caddy so you have a place to hold your coffee (and water or snacks!) while you make your way through the never-ending terminal to find your gate. You'll never spill your coffee while trying to answer a text again!
Promising review: "Where has this holder been all my life? It is such a great idea for navigating through airports! I used to lose or drop my water bottles all the time in the airport. Not anymore! One of the coolest travel gadgets I own! I travel A LOT!" —Darrel Larson
Get it from Amazon for $15.99 (available in 26 colors and styles).

Frywall is a small business you may have seen on Shark Tank! It's heat-resistant up to 450 degrees and dishwasher safe.
Promising review: "We have used it twice now, and it definitely works as advertised. Cooktop stays much, much cleaner. Now I'm willing to make recipes I had given up on because of the grease spatter mess on my cooktop. Great idea!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $21.95 (available in three colors).
22. A portable paw cleaner you most definitely need if your pup seems to go out of their way to find mud when you're out on a walk and then won't sit still while you try to towel them off. Just fill this cleaner with water, dunk their paw in, and the silicone bristles will do all the hard work for you and get the mud off.
No more muddy pawprints showing up all over your home!
Promising review: "Love this!! What a great Idea!! I live in Iowa, and we get a lot of rain and snow... which creates MUD! I used to have to grab my dog and try to wipe off her paws... she still tracked mud everywhere!! With this, I fill it with warm water... dunk dunk dunk a paw... empty the container... fill it with water... repeat for each paw! After each wash I dry her paw. No more mud tracks through my house and onto my furniture! Awesome product!! Buy it!!" –Janice Eileen Cook
Get it from Amazon for $12.75+ (available in three sizes and eight colors).
23. A set of bed bands that'll work super hard to keep the corners of your fitted sheet in place so they don't pop off and try to escape every chance they get. Plus, this means you won't have to fight to get the sheet on all four corners as often — that itself is a chore.
Promising review: "What a great idea. I have a deep Tempurpedic mattress, and the fitted sheet always comes off one corner even when the sheets are made with extra deep pockets for mattresses like mine. These keep the fitted sheet in place and are really simple to use. So far (5–6 months of use), I haven't noticed any extra wear where they attach to the sheets which was a concern of mine. Good stuff...go for it!" —BW
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in four pack sizes and five colors).

25. A sink topper great for anyone who has little-to-no counter space but still wants to be able to spread out when doing their hair and makeup. This mat is heat resistant up to 480 degrees Fahrenheit so you can set any heat tools right on it. And it does leave a space for water to get through in case you still need access to that!
Promising reviews: "This works great for my mom when she does her dentures. It helps keep them from dropping into the sink. She doesn’t have any counter space, so this is such a great idea. Folds up easily, too." —Karen R
"My bathroom vanity has limited counter space. My hair brush, cosmetics, makeup brushes, etc. are constantly falling into my sink. Now my things are laid out, nothing is falling in the sink, and I don’t have to constantly reach over to the other side of the sink. I even have room for my curling iron. It's nice and sturdy for my needs. I don't put anything heavy on it, especially on the middle piece directly in front of the faucet. The space for the faucet is adequate and still provides room to use the faucet. It folds nicely for storage. I'm so glad I bought it!" —Belle
Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in two sizes and two colors).

Promising review: "Um, just like the Squatty Potty, I instantly bought these and can’t believe I lived so long without them. Such a great idea, and it truly does work. If you own a car, this is the must-have accessory. It’s not sexy; just efficient." —Chad E. Pearson
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $24.99.

Promising reviews: "Such a great idea and execution. Two of these have completely 'upgraded' my workouts! Dumbbell to kettlebell and back...too easy!" —USERBOSCO
"I've recently gotten into kettlebell training, and I've been trying to find 15-lb kettlebells to purchase, but can't find them anywhere. I do have a complete set of dumbbells from 5 lbs up, and with the help of the Kettle Gryp, I can quickly turn the plain vanilla hex dumbbell into a kettlebell within seconds. I really love the versatility of this product and am delighted that I won't ever have to buy kettlebells ever again. These really maximize the utility of my already existing dumbbells and save me tons of money. They are also durable and easy to use. Thumbs up!" —Jonathan G. Smith

28. A Thaw Claw designed to defrost meat seven times faster. All you have to do is suction it to your sink, fill the sink with water, and then put the frozen food under the claw. It will be defrosted in no time — and you'll never have to scrap your dinner plans because you forgot to take the chicken out of the freezer last night...
Promising review: "Great idea! This things is excellent. I make my own dog food and frequently decide to do it at the last minute. This makes life so much easier. It really does allow the meat to thaw in about 15 minutes, which speeds up browning the ground meat. Thank you for a very simple but very much needed kitchen tool!" —JaneK

29. A vacuum wine saver, which reseals the bottle to preserve the freshness and taste, meaning you can enjoy a single glass at night without having to finish the whole bottle.

Get it from Amazon for $16.98.
30. A toilet night-light designed with a sensor so it will turn on as soon as you stumble into the bathroom, eyes closed. You won't have to turn on the light, which always wakes you up, causing it to take longer for you to fall back asleep.
It is an LED light and has 16 colors that can either be solid or rotate between all of them.
Promising review: "Are you kidding me? This thing is awesome! I saw it on some article top 20 things on Amazon for $10 and under. Well, this I would have paid $40 for. I get up every night to use the bathroom and always took my cell with for light. Not any more. This machine goes on almost faster than I can believe it from the motion of the door opening. You can pick colors and dim it, too. Such a great idea since you aren’t supposed to have much light if you return to sleep. It literally just hang on the edge and small light into toilet. Motion sensor is small enough you can put it out of sight just enough that it still works. I bought extra and plan to add to Christmas grab bags-as a joke, but it’s a great joke! Highly recommend for all ages." —M. Sullivan
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
31. An oil dispenser with one of the coolest features I've ever seen — there's a measuring pump on the top so you don't have to use a measuring spoon every time the recipe calls for 1 tablespoon of oil. Sure, you could eye-ball it, but with this you'll be putting the exact amount of oil in the recipe every single time. And as a bonus, it will look so nice sitting on your counter when not in use.
To use, press the button until the oil reaches the desired amount. This also comes with an oil mister so you can spray an even coat on those veggies before you roast them.
Promising reviews: "A great idea and execution. My fiancé loves using these to cook. Never found it easier to spray on olive oil or measure out just the right amount to use." —Steven B Pittman Jr.
"This product is easy to use and is the perfect addition to any kitchen! I love how easily I can measure out olive oil and how smoothly it comes out of the bottle. It is great for cooking or for drizzling over salads! Not only is it easy to use, but it also looks nice in the kitchen. Unlike a plastic olive oil bottle, this dispenser is a beautiful addition to my counter top. Also, for anyone who is interested in measuring out their olive oil without needing to constantly pull out a tablespoon, this is the perfect dispenser for you! The spray bottle is also great for cooking! I love that I know exactly what comes out of the spray bottle, rather than a store-bought spray bottle with additives. 10/10 would recommend!" —Clotilde D.

Promising review: "Great idea. For many, this may seem like a waste of money. Not for me. I am over 65 and have difficulty getting up and down from the floor. As a result, my baseboards did not get dusted as frequently as the rest of the house. This made it so much easier for me." —retired
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
34. A magnetic ironing pad designed to snap right on to your washer or dryer, so you don't have to keep that big and bulky ironing board around that's also the main reason you don't end up actually ironing your clothes.

36. 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: "GET THIS!!! I have 3 little ones. I just installed it. I only used the adhesive part which seems pretty darn sturdy. May have to screw the pieces in eventually, but as of right now, I think these will really do the job. Had to install while they were taking their nap. We’ll see how this goes. This was a great idea. You shouldn’t lose the key because it has an adhesive and magnetic which you can stick high up somewhere so the kids can’t get to it." —Alpha Thomas
