    34 Products That Work — So You Don't Have To

    You'll be able to sit back and relax while still feeling like you accomplished something.

    1. A touchless stationary vacuum here 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!

    GIF of reviewer sweeping dust into bagless vacuum

    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: "We have two large dogs, teenagers, and hardwood floors, which means I'm constantly picking up dog hair and bits of ramen noodles! Now I just sweep it up in front of the vacuum, and it does the rest of the work. I was constantly wiping up the last bits with a wet paper towel, but no more. Absolutely love this vac!" —hannahtx

    Get it from Amazon for $129 (available in six colors).

    2. A nail file board meant to give your pup the opportunity to file their own nails, instead of forcing you to try and get them under control while your pup squirms away as fast as they can. This works like an emery board to file down their nails so they don't scratch up your floor. Reviewers say they see a difference after only a few scratches!

    ScratchPad for Dogs is a small biz based in Atlanta.

    Promising review: "Love this scratch pad! We adopted our dog almost a year ago and he's been terrified of clippers and grinders since day one. We've never been able to maintain his nails due to his super reactive anxiety around nail care. That's all changed since we got the Scratch Pad a few weeks ago! He took to it right away and his nails have shown significant improvement in just a few sessions!" —Kira Armajani

    Get it from ScratchPad for Dogs on Etsy for $44.95+ (available in four styles and three grit levels).

    3. formula dispensing machine for any new parent who knows that a couple of seconds really do matter when it comes to calming a screaming hungry baby. This genius machine mixes and warms bottles to the perfect consistency and temperature in seconds. You both will be so thankful.

    Baby Brezza

    BuzzFeed Shopping editor John Mihaly says: "Listen, listen, listen. Without hyperbole, the Baby Brezza has been one of my best investments for year one in babyland. Late-night feeds no longer become about fumbling, spilling, mixing, warming, and minutes later delivering a so-so bottle to a crying child. No, in seconds a measured and warm concoction is in hand and then in baby's mouth. Just add water to the tank and formula to the dispenser and serve bottles ranging between 2–10 ounces warmed to three different temperatures. The time, effort, and stress this wonderful machine has saved me from is emotionally immeasurable and worth the price tag. It even forces you to clean it after every four uses because that formula gets gunky and you get lazy."

    Get it from Amazon for $199.99.

    4. Or a Dr. Brown's formula mixing pitcher that's a cheaper option designed with a unique blade inside that allows you to make a big batch of formula at once. You'll have a bottle waiting in the fridge the moment your baby starts screaming because they're hungry.

    Also, just a note that the CDC recommends using batched prepared infant formula within two hours or immediately store in the fridge and use within 24 hours.

    Promising review: "For many months, I was breastfeeding and pumping for my daughter. Around the time I was ready to throw in the towel (towards end of 9 months of straight breast milk), I randomly saw this in a TikTok video and decided I needed it for when I made the change. I’ve been using this now for about five weeks, and it’s saved my sanity already having the formula made. 10/10 recommend." —Meaghan

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99

    5. A Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamp you stick on the inside of your bowl, and it will give your toilet a nice little clean with every flush. Your toilet will be free of toilet rings and unwanted smells for up to 12 days, without you ever having to touch it.

    Promising review: "I bought these on a whim because I read about them on a BuzzFeed article. I wasn’t expecting much, but let me tell ya they work! Helps cut down cleaning your toilet because this does most of the hard work for ya. Helps me spend less time cleaning the bathroom, which is a win!" —Al

    6. A handy bag holder that'll make it *sooooo* much easier to carry all your bags in one trip without the threat of dropping half of it on the floor because you said to yourself, "I can TOTALLY carry all of this" (when, in fact, you probably shouldn't have).

    a reviewer photo of someone carrying several bags on their shoulder using the bag carrier
    a reviewer photo of a hand holding two ten-pound jars of fire glass using the bag holder

    Click & Carry is a Los Angeles-based, woman-owned small business that Kim Meckwood started when she wanted to solve the problem of carrying heavy shopping bags. Each bag holder can hold up to 80 pounds. Reviewers also say this holder comes in handy to help carry paint cans, sports equipment, and more.

    Promising review: "I heard about this product from a friend and had been meaning to check it out. My only regret about this purchase is not getting it earlier! I used to dread going to the grocery store due to the hassle of struggling with all my bags and the multiple trips to and from the car. Now those days are a thing of the past because of this ESSENTIAL product. After realizing my newfound love of this product, I did some research and found all sorts of other uses for it such as using it to secure my purse to my shopping cart and hooking my dog leashes together to walk both dogs at the same time. I love this product and love gifting it to others as well!" —Lisa Gilroy

    Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in packs of one or two and in six colors). 

    7. A pack of FryAway Waste Cooking Oil Solidifier Powder ideal for anyone who struggles with how to dispose of cooking oil (because you should never pour it down the drain). Just add this to the pan after you're done cooking, and it will solidify up to 8 cups of oil. Then you can easily scoop it out and throw it right in the trash.

    gif of reviewer using a spoon to remove the oil from a pan

    Promising review: "Quite impressive. After making some fries, we added a packet to the hot oil and stirred a few times. Maybe 10 minutes later, we checked the pan, and the oil had solidified. Using a wood spoon, we easily removed the solid and put it in the trash. I will always make sure to keep a pack of FryAway in our pantry. Highly recommended." —Ryan O.

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in three sizes).

    8. A robot window cleaner designed to use AI to detect the edges of your windows and clean them without any effort from you at all. It'll leave your windows clean and streak-free all while you sit back and relax. 

    reviewer image of the window cleaner on a window
    reviewer image of the cleaner in a shower

    Promising review: "This product is sooooo cool! I live in the desert and my windows need constant cleaning to keep the dust away. I don't even need to spray my windows with cleaner unless there are fingerprints — and even then it’s not always needed. I sit the Gecko on the window while I vacuum or do laundry. It beeps when it’s done and then I move it to the next window. Extremely simple!" —Karen Kline

    Get it from Amazon for $199.95+ (available in black and white).

    9. Some colorful glass bulbs designed to slowly feed a plant water over time so you don't have to even try and remember the last time you watered it. Was it last Tuesday? Or Wednesday? Well, it doesn't matter anymore because this bulb has got you covered. 

    Promising review: "I have been trying to grow hydrangeas for years. I’ve killed every hydrangea I’ve brought home up until now. In fact these watering globes are the only thing keeping my hydrangeas alive and they’re flourishing! Also I killed a fiddle-leaf fig tree, exchanged it for a new one and again this system is what’s making it flourish! I just check to make sure the bulbs aren’t empty and refill when needed. I’m using two outside and one indoors. Will definitely be buying more!" —T. Dhont

    Get a pack of three from Amazon for $19.71.

    10. A mold and mildew remover to easily remove the gross buildup in your shower and make it look as good as the day you moved in (or maybe even better). All you have to do is apply it, let it sit, and then rinse. Yep, that's it. 

    Promising review: "You guys. I’m embarrassed to even show you this. The grout around our tub was DISGUSTING. It was never caulked right and it got gross very quickly. I would scrub. The cleaning lady would scrub. It would get worse. Well, I came across this in a BuzzFeed list, and this stuff made me curious. I don’t know why it doesn’t have 10,000 good reviews. Seriously. All I did was squeeze it on and walk away. I let it sit overnight. Check this out. Buy it. Like today." —KarynB

    Get it from Amazon for $13.99.

    11. An automatic pet feeder you can program with your cat (or dog's) feeding schedule, and it will release the appropriate amount at their exact dinner time so you don't have to deal with it at all. Sure, you love your pet, but you don't love how much they annoy you to get you to feed them.

    Promising review: "This cat feeder is amazing! We bought it for when we go on vacation in September but wanted to try it out before we leave. It was very easy to setup, and we have two feeding times a day. It has operated with batteries just fine. It saved our mornings from our two cats crying outside our door for food early in the morning! Have not had any issues with it for over a month. I would highly recommend this product for your vacation or your sanity!" —Amanda Roper

    Get it from Amazon for $69.99

    12. A detangling leave-in conditioner parents swear by to tame frizz, reduce breakage, and hydrate curls, all while avoiding a meltdown of epic proportions as they try to brush their child's hair.

    Promising review: "This is the BEST product EVER! I will never use another hair detangler ever again. We use this product daily in my house, my daughter, my son, and I. Both of us girls have long and thick curly hair and it allows us to brush through our hair with no problems! And my son mostly uses it to style his hair before gel, and because it smells so good! We tried a few products from Walmart, Ulta and Target, and nothing was good enough. This is now on my subscribe and save every month!" —Tamira McLelland

    Get it from Amazon for $8.39.

    13. A Shark robot vacuum guaranteed to make you feel like you're living in the future because it will vacuum your whole house for you. Yeah, you heard that right. Cross "vacuum" off your to-do list because this gadget's got it covered. 

    reviewer pic of the round grey robot vacuum
    the same reviewer showing the inside of the robot vacuum and how much dust and dirt it vacuumed up

    I have a similar Shark robot vacuum and think it is so great. We run it two to three times a week in the apartment, and it really does a great job at keeping the floor clean. It's easy to program a schedule that works best for you so you don't even have to worry about remembering to vacuum, this gadget will do it for ya. 

    Promising review: "I absolutely love my Shark robot vacuum. It saves me so much time and works great. With two dogs, three cats, and kids, my floors were always a mess. I run this twice a day and my floors look great, and I haven't had to get my regular vacuum out since I have had it. I have one high pile rug that it may not get all the dog hair out of, but it works wonders on my hardwood floors. Also, I love how it fits in small places like under the bathroom vanity and side tables where my other vacuum could not. My only regret is not buying two of them (one for each floor) when they were on sale. Do yourself a favor and order this!! 10 stars!" —Chad Haney

    14. A rapid egg cooker you can use to make hard-, medium-, or soft-boiled eggs in a matter of minutes. So goodbye to not knowing what you're going to eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner this week.

    Multiple people on the BuzzFeed Shopping team love this little device and so do others, as it has more than 80,000 5-star ratings. Plus, it comes with a recipe book to help you come up with a few new ideas to try.

    Promising review: "I saw someone on TikTok with this and gasped! Ordered it right away. I had no idea these things existed. Super easy and convenient and the hard-boiled eggs came out perfectly. I’m testing a batch now without punching a hole in the eggs to see how they come out. Because why not make an easy process even easier?!?! LOL." —Gina

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in seven colors).

    And read one BuzzFeed writer's full review of the Dash rapid egg cooker.

    15. A fizzing toilet tablet you simply drop in your toilet, and the fizzing will work to loosen all the stains and buildup. Then all you have to do is lightly brush the bowl, flush all the grossness away, and get back to doing more fun and exciting things in your life.

    Pardo Naturals is a Black woman-owned small biz founded by Rita Pardo who created natural body, hair, and home products that wouldn't irritate her daughter's severe eczema.

    BuzzFeed Shopping editor Melanie Aman says: "For all the folks who don't enjoy cleaning the toilet — myself included — these dissolving tablets make quick work of a grimy bowl. The tablets are a little hard to dislodge from the plastic container (though that does make me feel confident that they're secure during transit and won't break; mine all arrived intact!), but once you get one out, you drop it in the toilet, and let it do its thing. It'll start fizzing — just like a bath bomb — loosening any stains and streaks in 10 minutes so they come away with a light brushing. I never let the toilet get too bad (and usually it takes awhile for me to notice any buildup since there are only two people in the apartment), so I can't vouch for them if you have really set-in hard water stains or haven't cleaned the commode in six months. But if you're looking to ditch the harsh cleansers in your toilet cleaning routine, this is a great addition to your lineup."

    Get six tablets from Pardo Naturals for $10.50 (available in seven scents).

    16. plastic bag holder for those times when you find yourself alone in the kitchen wishing you had a couple of extra hands to help you finish meal prepping without leaving a big mess all over your counter. This will hold your plastic bags open, so you can scoop your leftover ground beef right into the bag.

    Promising review: "I prep my meals a month at a time, and these make it much more convenient. These are especially helpful with raw meat, as I can use two hands while prepping the food and don't have to worry about keeping one clean to open the bag. I've also used them to portion out servings and ounces of meat when placed on a scale. They're not made of anything incredibly strong, but they're sturdy enough for full Ziploc bags of food." —Julie M

    Get a set of two from Amazon for $11.99.

    17. weekly, bleach-free shower spray you simply spray in your shower, leave overnight, and rinse the next day. Yes, this cleaner is basically the set it and forget it of shower cleaners.

    reviewer showing how clean the shower floor is after using the product three times

    Note: Depending on how dirty your shower is, some reviewers say it takes a couple of applications to get it completely clean. 

    Promising review: "I have well water. Something in my well water reacts with copper plumbing and turns my shower tiles blue. Since my bathroom color scheme isn't on the blue spectrum, this is problematic. The well water also causes the shower glass to film up quickly. I've tried dozens and dozens of cleaners and scrubbed till my arms ached trying to get ahead of the blue and scumminess. My ambition in life is NOT to be a full-time bathroom scrubber! I saw this stuff on a professional house cleaner's TikTok, and thought 'what the heck, might as well give it a try.' Oh my goodness, the first day after my shower, I sprayed this stuff all over and walked away. The next morning there was a NOTICEABLE reduction in the blue and the glass looked clearer too. Day two, sprayed again and walked away. The next morning the blue was gone except for a few spots on the floor tile and the glass looked amazing. Day three I spayed the remaining spots and the next morning the shower practically looked new. NO SCRUBBING AT ALL!!!! This is my new favorite shower cleaner. The ONLY con I have is that it makes me sneeze while I'm spraying from inside the shower, but I can live with that." —L. J. Petillo

    Get it from Amazon for $17.97.

    18. 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 review: "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.

    19. 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 so it turns 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: "It’s about time someone came up with an invention like this. The person that created this is a genius!! The Wad-Free for bed sheets package contains enough for two sheets, comes with easy to use instructions, and really works! I love not finding other laundry items wrapped up in the center of the sheet still wet, plus but I especially appreciate the time and money saved with my laundry drying faster now. I highly recommend this product!" —Catherine Cartwright

    Get a set of two from Amazon for $18.99.

    20. Kenra's Platinum Blow-Dry Spray you apply to your hair after washing it to not only protect it from heat and tame frizz, but also cut down your drying time by 50%. You'll be out the door in no time with beautiful hair in the morning, even if you press snooze a couple of times.

    Reviewer showing blown out hair after using product
    Reviewer holding product in hand

    Promising review: "I LOVE the smell of this! Bought it due to frizzing from coloring my hair, but really didn't believe that it shortened drying time. I mean, how can something putting moisture on you hair shorten the drying time, right? I was shocked. I don't know if it cut it down by 50%, but I did notice blow-drying my hair took quit a bit less time. I am sold on this stuff. Makes my hair feel like silk, but not greasy (I was worried about it making my hair greasy) and it takes only a few sprays to get the results. I hold it about 15 inches from my head and spray the top, both sides, and the back once, then rub it in with my hands. Perfect!" —Janice C. Henderson

    Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three sizes).

    21. An Instant Pot great for anyone who hates cooking (and even people who enjoy it) to make it so much easier to make delicious meals that you *might* stop making mac 'n' cheese three times a week.

    Promising review: "I am a guy not too fond of cooking and cleaning up. I like working out and eating clean. I bought the 6-quart last weekend, and I can say my life is now on a different trajectory because of this product. Cooking and cleaning up is now a breeze. It cooks amazing foods. (I suggest getting a recipe book.) I can cook in large batches for the whole week without too much fuss. The best part is cleaning up. Due to the deep bowl, it doesn't splatter everywhere when cooking. I use it to sauté a lot. It has replaced my electric stove and even my microwave. I just ordered the nonstick bowl for it as the food seems to stick to the stainless-steel bowl when searing or sautéing. It's an amazing product." —TK

    Get it from Amazon for $76.52+ (available in three sizes).

    22. And some Instant Pot magnetic cheat sheets that somehow make this genius device even easier to use because you'll know exactly how to cook so many different dishes without having to ask Alexa for help once.

    Promising review: "I am so happy that I decided to give this product a try! What an amazing idea. I placed the smaller magnet right on the Instant Pot and use it daily for a quick reference. Instead of searching the cookbook or internet, I can just glance over and know in an instant how to program my IP for that particular product." —Olesya

    24. heatless curling rod headband perfect for anyone who wants perfectly curled hair but hates how long it takes to actually get that look with a curling iron. Simply wrap your hair around the headband before you go to bed, and you'll wake up to big curls!

    The set includes a curling rod, two hair scrunchies, a claw hair clip, and two duckbill hair clips to set it in place. You can use this on all hair types, but reviewers say it works best when used with damp hair!

    Promising review: "I don’t tend to buy products like this, let alone leave a review! But I love this product. It's so easy to use! And leaves my hair better than if I were to curl it and with no heat! It saves me so much time in the morning. 15/10" —Grecia

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in 12 colors). 

    25. A veggie chopper, slicer, and spiralizer because chopping takes an absurd amount of time. Like, seriously, when I read a recipe and it says it will take 20 minutes, they're not taking my slow chopping skills into account. This gadget will ~cut~ that chopping time in half.

    Reviewer pic of carrots in the middle of the white and black chopper
    the same reviewer now showing how nicely it cut up all the veggies for the recipe

    It comes with a small-dice blade, large-dice blade, spiral blade, and ribbon blade that are interchangeable and gives you the option to chop, slice, and julienne vegetables. Plus, you get a lid with a built-in chop and a storage container to hold the veggies.

    Promising review: "I’ve had this for a couple of months now, and it makes my life SOOOOO much easier. Anything I’ve thrown at it, it’s sliced with ease. Tomatoes, cucumber, peppers, onions, celery, carrots...EASY! I even use to chop the eggs when I make potato salad now since it’s so easy and makes perfect slices.

    "What used to take me three to four mins chopping up an onion and then a face full of ruined makeup, now takes less than one minute and no makeup ruined. The blades are SHARP, definitely be careful when removing them. But the lock on the tray makes it easy and so far I haven’t hurt myself with it. Typically, I’ll use it and then rinse out the top and put it in the dishwasher. It’s been through on the top rack well over 20 times now and still looks brand new. If something ever happens to this one, I’ll be back to get another one. It saves me so much time when cooking dinner!" —Macygrey09

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99.

    26. A StirMate automatic pot stirrer that'll basically be your sous chef when you don't have any help in the kitchen. It stirs whatever is in your pot while you focus on the next steps in your recipe.

    The device self-adjusts to fit pots from 6–12 inches in diameter and 3–9 inches in depth. The motor will stir for up to 13 hours per charge and then only takes 30 minutes to recharge.

    Promising review: "Not only does this save me a ton of time running back and forth to the kitchen to stir pots of long simmering meals like chili, it also allows me to cook much faster as I can run the heat higher since it's continually stirring and I don't have to worry about scorching. I was concerned if it would be strong enough to stir some of the thicker things, like chili, but it doesn't seem to slow it down at all. For folks that cook a lot, this would be a tremendous time saver and I'd have one in every pot I had going." —Ryan

    Get it from Amazon for $64.85.

    27. A ball launcher perfect for any pet parent whose fur babies loves to run. Not only will this get the tennis ball farther than just using your arm, but it also grabs the muddy, slobbery ball from the ground, meaning you never have to touch that gross thing again. You'll dog will be tired quicker so you can move on with your day knowing they're going to take a loooooong nap. 

    Promising review: "While my dog struggles with the concept of returning the ball to me, she absolutely loves this! We visit a huge dog park frequently, and this lets me throw a ball far enough that she really gets to run full throttle! I could never throw it far enough on my own to keep her interested more than one or two times before getting the launcher. Now, we can spend an hour at the park playing with it. I have one super tired dog when we go home. Tired dog = happy dog = happy dog mom. I also love that I don't have to pick up the slimy ball with my hands anymore, especially after she drops it in a puddle, because the launcher picks it right up. My dog gets so excited when she sees the launcher that she will bounce back and forth in front of me until I throw the ball. I only regret not buying one of these earlier!" —C. Fritzche

    Get it from Amazon for $5.28+ (available in three sizes and seven lengths).

    28. A Revlon one-step hairdryer and volumizer brush going viral for a reason — it cuts drying time in half *and* helps you easily create a salon-worthy blowout at home. You'll be ~blown~ away by the results.

    Promising reviews: "I have very thick, wavy hair. I can never blow out my hair because it's too hard to hold the round brush and hairdryer in the right spots. THIS!! It is everything all in one and the oval shape makes it so easy to use. It gets really hot. It is a little loud on high, but I've found if my hair is already a little dry then I can just use it on low. I used a blow-dry primer spray to accelerate the drying time and protect my hair. I'm in love! The flat iron always flattens my hair and makes it look dry. This straightens and retains the volume and gives it a soft, nondamaged look." —SAHM2011

    "I have 4c African American 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. Highly recommend for Black/AA or textured hair!" — Lisa

    Get it from Amazon for $34.88+ (available in two styles).

    P.S. Some reviewers with curl types 4a-c like this oval brush, but if you want something that will help blow out tighter curls or coils, there's the Revlon One-Step *paddle* brush. This style is designed with curlier hair in mind, and reviewers love it! Get it from Amazon for $31.99+ (available in two colors).

    29. 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 six brush stiffness colors).

    30. 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 all the stains, and then wipe it away. You'll be left with a spotless oven ready to take on whatever baking challenge you think of next.

    Promising review: "I rarely write reviews, but this stuff is straight magic!! When we moved into our new home, the oven was disgusting! I absolutely HATE cleaning a freaking oven, but after reading the reviews, I decided to give it a shot. For less than six bucks, what the heck, I’ll give it a try! Sprayed it on last night, got up this morning and wiped it out with nothing but paper towels and BAM! My new favorite cleaning product! I’m going to end up doing it again tonight just to have it all sparkly, because like I said, this thing was disgusting, and there were a couple of spots on the door and in the bottom that I missed. If I had felt like putting more effort into it, I could have scrubbed it clean, but let’s be real here, ain’t nobody got time for that! If you’re questioning whether this stuff works, just buy it and prepare to be blown away!" —Brittany Douglas

    Get it from Amazon for $6.27.

    31. A flip top you can attach to your bottles to make sure you get EVERY. LAST. DROP. Hey, if you shelled out a little too much money for the "AMAZING" shampoo, you should do whatever you can to use the whole bottle. 

    Promising review: "No more wasting product. I love these so much I had to get the six-pack so I can use them around the house for everything. I love that once the bottle is done, you just clean this lid and put it on something else. I love that the bottles don’t fall while the product is slowly dripping inside the bottle, and if you use the stoppers, it doesn’t leak. The only thing is I wish it came with a lot more stoppers other than that. This is a must-have in your house." —Em

    32. A microfiber spin mop reviewers *swear* actually makes mopping fun. 😱 I know — I am in shock, too. But the features alone will make you want to take this gadget for a ~spin~. This mop is machine washable, has an automatic wringer, and is designed in a shape that will reach into small spaces and corners, no problem. Cinderella is shaking!!!

    Promising review: "I had had it with my broken basic mop and bucket. I tried to just get a dollar store Swiffer to get us by, but that wasn't cutting it at all. With three boys and a dog that makes his rounds on all the furniture and every exposed corner, I had to do something. After seeing a TikTok where a woman demonstrated this mop to clean her walls, and hearing my boss raving about it, I decided to click the Amazon button. Let me tell you, I HATE cleaning, I HATE mopping, but I LOVE for things to be clean. I was able to mop the entire house TWICE (Because it was that dirty. Please don't judge.) within an hour. A few days later I mopped the entire house again within 10 minutes because they weren't quite as dirty. On another positive note, my boys love the spinner and think it’s a toy! So, every time I get the bucket out my 10-year-old and 4-year-old ask to mop the house because they think it’s fun. MAJOR BONUS!" —Molly

    33. An under-cabinet lid opener because I can't be the only one who's gotten so frustrated when I can't get a jar open that I've simply abandoned making dinner and ate popcorn instead.

    Promising review: "Once in a while you stumble on a product that is better than advertised. This is one of them. Having arthritis in my hands, I struggle to open some large jars. This works like a charm and makes it a one-handed operation. Following the advice of another reviewer, we mounted it ‘backward’ so the point of the V is towards the front of the cupboard rather than the back. This allows us to pull the jar towards us, rather than pushing it away. It also means we can’t see the metal teeth from our sofa. Now I want to open every jar in the house. :-)" —Eric K.

    Get it from Amazon for $18.95.

    34. Keurig cleaning cups, a must-have for anyone who is maybe just realizing now that they should have been cleaning their coffee maker for the past couple of years. 😬 This makes it so simple. Just put one of the pods in the machine, and you'll be amazed at how much gunk comes out of it. 🤮

    Promising review: "I had no idea that cleaning a Keurig was a thing. I bought these because I saw them on TikTok believe it or not. I wanted to give it a go because my Keurig isn’t that old and I didn’t think it would do anything. IT WORKS SO WELL! My Keurig wasn’t as nasty as some I’ve seen, luckily. I would highly recommend, keeps everything running correctly and clean." —Lauren
