    38 Time-Saving Products For People Who Swear They Don't Have Enough Time In A Day

    I swear, I look at the clock and it's 11:38 and the next thing I know, it's 9:47.

    1. An LED fog-less mirror you can mount in your shower so you can shave right after you finish washing your hair and get on with your day. This way if you hit snooze one too many times, you'll still make it out the door in time. 

    Promising review: "This deluxe shaving mirror saves me about 15 minutes in the morning. If you're anything like me, 15 minutes in the morning is like an hour in daytime hours. I really like not having to keep up with and apply the anti-fog sprays to the mirror, which only temporarily work (so I hear). Filling the back with water that goes in the back of the mirror only takes about 10 seconds and discarding the water after shaving takes about five seconds. Shaving in the shower with all the steam makes your shaving experience much closer and comfortable, I find. Like I said, when I wake up in the morning, I stumble to the shower FIRST. No more going to the sink, washing my face, shaving, AND THEN stumbling to the shower. Excellent way to start the day... and with much less stumbling, my chances are much greater in making it to work... LOL" —Nicholas

    2. 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. 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 in a matter of seconds.

    No more muddy pawprints showing up all over your home!

    Promising review: "I love this product. I ordered a medium at first and seemed to work fine for our two dogs, (Australian shepherd mix and lab mix). The medium was a little small for the Lab, so I ordered the large. The large is easier to fit her paws into, but it's harder to use because it's much bigger (which was expected). They both work, and we absolutely love how clean it gets their paws. We were shocked to see how dirty the water was. This saves us so much time from wiping their paws with wet towels and then drying them. You do still have to dry their paws, but if they happen to slip away, you just have to deal with a wet floor and not a wet/muddy floor. I definitely recommend this product to everyone who has a dog." –Amazon Customer

    3. An eyeliner stamp because nothing, and I mean nothing, can stop you from having an amazing day when you create the perfect cat-eye in less than a minute. What's that? Oh yeah, that's just Marvel on the phone to get you to be the next star now that you have an amazing superpower. 

    Reviewer showing the perfect cat eye they created using the pen
    Closeup of the black pen, showing the end that has the stamp on it

    Simply line up the stamp from the corner of your eye to the end of your eyebrow and stamp to create the perfect wing on both sides. The stamp is waterproof *and* smudge-proof, so you won't have to worry about reapplying throughout the day. The pen has two ends — one for stamping and the other has a fine tip for putting eyeliner on the rest of your eyelid.

    Promising review: "I 100% recommend this product. I love this!!! I can’t say enough good things. I am horrible at making my wings even!!! This has been a lifesaver and so versatile. It has cut my makeup time in half!!!" —lilly1991

    Get it from Amazon for $14.97 (available in three sizes).

    4. 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: "I am the envy of all who see me. Seriously. The only 'problem' with these bags is how many people will stop you to ask about them. I never forget to bring my reusable bags anymore because these are so useful! I use the scan as you shop app at my local store and bag as I go. When I’m finished shopping, I scan it at any register, pay, and go. Everything is packed the way I want it and can be easily carried into my home. It saves time while helping the environment — win/win. I plan to buy these for all of my friends for their birthdays. So much more useful than body wash or another scented candle!" —S. Connell

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

    5. 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.

    reviewer image of the Instant Pot

    It's a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, sauté pan, yogurt maker, and food warmer all rolled into one nifty appliance. Plus, it comes with the stamp of approval from more than 119,000 5-star ratings (!!!!). Check out our full review of the Instant Pot!

    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 $69.99+ (available in three sizes).

    6. 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.

    Amazon

    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 R

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in two sizes).

    7. A push-through pill organizer basically designed to solve the annoyances that come with a traditional pill organizer. There are seven modular pods that rest on a magnetic base, so you can easily take a day or two with you when you go away for the weekend. Plus, the dual colors make it clear which is for day and which is for night. And to top it off, the push-through design means you'll be able to refill in about half the time.

    This pill organizer was created by Sagely, a small business that sought out a better way to organize pills back in 2013. It was designed in the USA and also comes with a free app where you can set up reminders for when to take your pills. 

    Promising review: "I absolutely love this pill organizer! It holds all of my supplements, large and small. I just set it up at the beginning of each week, and it saves me a bunch of time. Highly recommended!!" —Susan

    Get it from Amazon for $34.99 or from The Grommet for $35.95 (available in four color combinations). 

    8. An Aquis Lisse Luxe Hair Towel you can wear to ~wrap~ up the amount of time it takes to dry your hair. This little guy sucks up the water *FAST*, so you can be ready in no time.

    Natalie Brown / BuzzFeed, Aquis

    Promising review: "I’m surprised by how well this actually works! I truly have coarse, un-tame-able hair that I must half air-dry and then blow-dry — it’s a science. But this towel really helps the texture of my hair and helps it dry more quickly. Now I can put the towel on when I get out of the shower, then be blow-drying in 15 minutes. Cuts down 'handling' time when it comes to drying!" —Katie

    Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in two sizes and eight colors).

    9. 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.

    10. Lay-n-Go cosmetic bag that fans out to become a mat so you don't have to spend any time digging trough your bag looking for your favorite highlighter you *know* you packed but can't seem to find in the mess of the rest of your makeup. Then when it's time to leave, just cinch up the bag, throw it in your suitcase, and you can be on your way.

    Promising review: "I was tired of fumbling around in my cosmetics case and saw this. I was skeptical, but...WOW! On my recent two-week trip to Europe, with constant laying out and packing up, this item was wonderful. I could find what I wanted quickly, right away. Packing up was just a matter of pulling the drawstring. At first I wasn’t sure about changing to this bag, but now I could not do without it." —Mojosharkey

    Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in three sizes and 24 colors and patterns).

    11. A microwave rice and quinoa cooker to take the task of making your grain on the stove (that takes approximately 20 minutes) and turn it into a super-simple step in your dinner-making plans. The bowl is designed to stop water from overflowing, so you can make the base of your dinner in less time. Plus, when it's ready, you can just serve it in the bowl, and that saves yet another step.

    Promising review: "We love this rice maker! Prep time in just minutes... This has saved us so much time, especially when we need dinner done quickly! The rice comes out fully cooked... In the beginning, it may take a few tries, since all microwaves are different, (setting at 800) as recommended, you'll eventually know what amount of rice goes with what amount of water, etc.... I add salt to taste and a teaspoon of olive oil, and it comes out delish! When done, just turn it over on your serving plate or just serve it directly from the container... Afterward, just pop in the dishwasher, no hard rice scraping to do. Highly recommend!" —Ani

    12. Revlon One-Stop Hair Dryer & Volumizer going viral on TikTok 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. 

    Reviewer photo with nicely blown out hair
    the brush-shaped hair dryer

    This brush has hype with more than 213,000 5-star reviews, 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: "This thing is definitely the best purchase I have ever made. My hair-drying time went from three hours down to about 30 minutes, it dries so well, especially if you pair it with the blow-drying cream or spray. On top of blow dry my hair, the ceramic gets so hot that my hair is straightened in the process. So it brushes, dries, and straightens. This thing has literally changed my life and saved me hours of time. I cannot say enough good things, seriously I could go on and on." —Summer Fayard

    Get it from Amazon for $34.88+ (available in three colors).

    13. A handle 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 this all" (when, in fact, you probably shouldn't have).

    Amazon

    Each handle can hold up to 50 pounds.

    Promising review: "Since purchasing the Mighty Handle, I have saved a lot of time and energy unloading groceries from my SUV. I would always have to make multiple trips back to the SUV, but now just one or two trips. This device is sturdy. As long as you divide the weight of the bags evenly, there is no issue carrying large amounts of groceries at one time." —Crystal

    14. 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.

    15. A breakfast sandwich maker – it's *so* simple; you just put all the ingredients in and have a delicious meal you don't have to leave your house to get...in minutes.

    Well, actually five minutes to be exact. Plus, if you want to make cleanup even easier, spray the rings and cooking plate with nonstick spray before use and after washing. And if you need some help with sandwich ideas, the maker comes with a recipe book filled with different combinations you can make.

    Promising review: "Normally, I am skeptical of things like this, but I saw the reviews and decided to give it a try. This maker works perfectly! The eggs are cooked through, the eggs do NOT leak when poured into the tray, and even after just four minutes, a thick sausage patty was heated all the way through. I 100% recommended!" —Crispybit

    Get it from Amazon for $42.99.

    16. 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.

    Before: a dirty shower floor; after: the clean shower floor
    Amazon

    Promising review: "We cannot BEGIN to tell you what a lifesaver this is! We have two old fiberglass tubs with vinyl shower enclosures that no matter what amount of scrubbing we have done with everything from bleach to cleanser to vinegar and baking soda would NOT come clean. After I took my shower last night, I sprayed down the tub and walls. Within minutes, all the built-up water deposits and dirt and grime began to melt away in front of my eyes. I left it on overnight, and when I got up this morning, it did not look like the same tub and shower. This product is a godsend, especially for old folks like us who have difficulty getting down on our hands and knees and scrubbing anything. More importantly, it performs as advertised. We plan on using it as part of our weekly cleanup routine. This is truly an overnight sensation!" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $16.89.

    17. A Thaw Claw to defrost meat up to 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 remember to take the meat out of the fridge in the morning again.

    Plus, this Black-owned and invented product fits in all sinks no matter the size or type.

    Promising review: "A package of frozen meat would have taken at least two days to thaw in the fridge. I used this for a 2-pound package a couple of days ago, and the meat was thawed within 90 minutes. One of the most practical kitchen gadgets I own." —Llda Schellhase

    Get it from Amazon for $18.95 (available in four colors).

    18. An adjustable hair dryer holder to give you a ~hand~ as you do your hair. It will basically turn your bathroom into a salon without having to leave your house. 

    Bestie Brands is a small business started by a hairstylist to help their grandmother dry their hair after having a stroke. You can either screw the mount into the wall or use suction cups for a more temporary solution. 

    Promising review: "I wish I found this product sooner, I would have saved so many hours. It cut my hair blow dry time from 30 minutes to 12 minutes. I'm also able to do my makeup while my hair is drying. I also love how light it is and how easily it sticks anywhere I'd like. It's very secure and fits almost every size blowdryer. I've been recommending this product to all my friends and family. I highly recommend this amazing product to anyone wants to get a professional blowout quickly without spending too much time, and most importantly, without your arms getting tired." —Mariya

    19. A Takeya cold brew maker so you can make your favorite beverage at home, 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 without having to leave your house.

    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 have made my money back and then some with this cold brew coffee maker. I make a fresh batch each evening and have coffee for the next day (or two, depending on how much I drink) instead of going out to buy iced coffee everyday. I followed other people's advice and pour the water over the grinds as I fill the container. My coffee comes out strong and smooth the next day. If you love iced coffee, I recommend this product to save you time and money by making iced coffee at home." —Amazon Customer

    20. A detangling brush reviewers (more than 37,000 actually) swear works magic on all hair types (including 2c–4c), detangling easily without pulling or damaging the hair. No more painful detangling sessions like the ones you had growing up that have basically scarred you for life.

    A reviewer holding up the bristled side of the brush
    holding up the pink side

    Plus, the brush works on both wet and dry hair!

    Promising review: "I have thick, down to my butt long curly hair, so brushing has always been hell. Usually, I have to deep condition my hair, brush it out before I wash it (about a half hour), then brush it in the shower, and after my shower, to try and keep it manageable. I never thought that it would matter what brush I used for my hair because its just always been the same no matter what I use. BUT THIS BRUSH. Oh my gosh! It has cut my hair brushing time down from 45 minutes to about 5! And the best part, is that I can even brush it when it's dry! It doesn't rip or tug, my hair doesn't get poofy or frizzy, and it just takes away my knots and leaves my curls. It is built really well, tough enough to withstand even my nutty hair! Doesn't have those awful little beads that rip off in your hair. This is a life-changer for me!" —Ryan Turner

    Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in six colors).

    21. A set of no-tie elastic shoelaces here to transform all of your shoes into slip-ons because in the year 2022, nobody needs to be wasting any time tying (and then retying) their shoes. 

    reviewer image of sneakers with no tie shoelaces in them

    The shoelaces can be used on both adult and kid's shoes! Reviewers also say these are great for making it easy to remove shoes while going through airport security. 

    Promising review: "At first I was skeptical that these laces wouldn't hold my shoes on tightly enough, but I decided to give them a try in my Converse Chucks. They're fantastic! I like the way the "hidden" fasteners sit inside the shoes below the eyelets, but on top of the tongue, and I can't feel the fastener at all with my foot in the shoe. I've had them in for around eight months, and they're still just as elastic as ever. They haven't stretched at all and show no signs of wearing out. I loved them so much that I bought five more sets to put in all of my shoes! No more triple knotting my shoes so they don't become untied. I tie knots pretty slowly so these laces have honestly saved me tons of time. I couldn't be happier with them." —lucidity

    Get them from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 38 colors). 

    22. A garlic prepping set because if you're like me and HATE mincing garlic with a burning passion (don't ask me why; I have no idea) then what you need to do instead of not cooking dinner is use the peeler and mincer to get perfect garlic in seconds.

    Just pop the individual clove in the tube, and roll it against the counter a few times for a quick peel. Then simply push the press down, and your perfectly minced pieces are ready to use! Ugh, I really should just add this to my cart rn.

    Promising review: "I LOVE this product! I like the size of the garlic chunks that you get with this masher, and I LOVE how easy it is to clean compared to other garlic mashers. I love that you don't need to use your fingers to peel the garlic. My mom has been cooking with garlic with every meal for 50+ years and wants one now too!!" —Ann M

    23. A laundry hamper with three separate compartments so you can sort your clothes as you take them off and save time when it's finally laundry day. Plus, the bags are removable, so you can grab your darks when your favorite jeans MUST be washed.

    Promising review: "This is perfect if you want to do laundry fast instead of sorting through colors, darks, and whites. It's great as the bags are detachable; you just have to take one bag instead of the whole hamper. It has definitely saved a lot of time doing laundry. It's not that big either, but it is decently tall. I'm 5'1", and it reaches my waist, so it's perfect to keep in a closet or bedroom if you don't mind it peeking out somewhere." —Jacquiline Guerra

    24. A windshield cover designed to protect your car from both ice and snow so you can leave in the morning and not have to spend extra time clearing your windshield before you hit the road.

    Promising review: "I love this product. I live in Minnesota, and this is great not only for snow but for protecting against frost, which we get six months a year, it seems. I wish I had it years ago. One thing on this product that I don't see on some others out there is that it covers your wipers extremely well, which is great!" —Amazon Customer

    25. 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. 

    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

    A Dozen Cousins is a Black-owned, San Francisco–based small biz. The variety pack comes with black beans, pinto beans, chickpea curry, red beans, refried black beans, and refried pinto beans. Plus, they're vegan!

    Promising review: "Who writes a review about beans? Somebody who loves beans but had given up on them, until now. This is a great product. Canned beans from my local supermarket are always a disappointment, so I stopped getting them. I don't have time to cook beans myself, but A Dozen Cousins beans are fresh and taste terrific. I've been trying to avoid packaged, processed foods but the natural ingredients make these different. I can feel good about eating them. The beans are whole and not mashed up like in cans. All of the varieties are seasoned well and versatile. I've had them on their own, in salads, and in wrap sandwiches. Do yourself a favor and order some. You won't regret it." —Amazon Customer

    27. 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

    28. Some Downy Wrinkle Releaser fabric spray, because, who are you kidding?  You're never going to pull out your iron to get those pants pressed. Instead, all you have to do is spray this on the pants, pull down on the fabric a bit, and the wrinkles will disappear. Now that's magic!

    Promising review: “Easy to use, convenient, and effective. I love this stuff!! I use it in my dorm room, since ironing anything in this tiny space is a pain. It’s easy to use, you just spray the front and back and pull on it for a minute to release all the wrinkles. It smells great – very fresh. Although if you’re very sensitive to scents/perfumes in your detergent this might also irritate your skin since the scent is kind of strong, but it does calm down when it dries. I do have slightly sensitive skin and it’s never bothered me, though. Plus, even if you do have the space to iron, it’s such a time saver in the mornings and great for things like T-shirts that don’t usually need to be ironed but are wrinkly. I think you would still need to iron things like dress shirts or pants, though. My mom has been using this for years, and it was great when I was a young teenager so that I didn’t have to get out the iron and make my mom worry about me burning the house down. Overall, I think this product is super convenient and a time- and energy-saver worth having around the house.” —Isabel

    29. A microfiber towel pillowcover made specifically so you can go to bed with wet hair and not ruin your pillowcase. I bet your mom that taught you never to go to bed with wet hair wished they owned this.

    Kitsch is a woman-founded company that specializes in hair accessories and tools to make every day a good hair day! 

    Promising review: "This is a MUST-HAVE for people who shower at night and live in cold climates! I’m so happy my damp hair is able to dry when I’m laying down after a shower on a long day, and also having a soft towel protecting my face and my pillow. The leopard print is super cute too, and it matches my towel scrunchie that I use after my morning shower while getting ready for the day." —Kealani W

    Get it from Kitsch or from Amazon for $24 (available in three colors/patterns).

    30. 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."

    31. A HyperChiller that can chill freshly brewed coffee – or other liquids, such as wine (!!) – in a minute without watering it down.

    This 12.5 ounce cup chills all beverages except carbonated ones. You fill it with water and put it in the freezer for 12 hours before using it. Plus, it's dishwasher-safe!

    Promising review: "I bought this item for my husband as a Father's Day gift. He is a coffee 'freak' and loves espresso, though in the hot summer he enjoys cold coffee in the evenings after work. That usually involved making it in the morning and putting in the fridge. But this HyperChiller changed everything! We LOVE it! It really takes no more than 90 seconds to get the perfect ice-cold coffee!! If you want to be able to make an ice-cold drink in seconds, this item is for you!" —Lilia G.

    32. A stroller so lightweight and compact, it can fit in the overhead bin on a plane. This means you don't have to wait around for it to be retrieved from storage after you deplane. You can just open the stroller and go.

    It folds up so small that it was awarded a Guinness World Record in 2014 for the most compact stroller. It can hold kids who weigh up to 55 pounds and only weighs 9.5 pounds.

    Promising review: "We are frequent travelers. I've been on 15 flights with my 17-month-old toddler. I wish I would have bought this a long time ago. It's the best purchase we have ever made. It is sturdy, folds very easy, has a great design, and can literally fit in a reusable grocery bag. Highly recommend!" —Kateryna

    Get it from Amazon for $214.99.

    33. A microwave pasta cooker, because waiting for water to boil is the WORST part of making pasta. What's the saying about watching paint dry? Well, when you're hungry, boiling water is worse than that.

    Plus, it's super easy to use. Just measure how much pasta you want to cook using the serving size holes in the top of the container. Then add water to the level etched on the side of the container. With the lid off, heat the container in the microwave. One serving usually takes about 12 to 13 minutes. Then put the lid on, hold the sides, and pour the water out. (This part will be very hot.)

    Promising review: "I love this pasta cooker! I use it every day! I like that the lid fits loosely so that I can quickly drain the cooked pasta without any spilling out. It is very sturdy and easy to use. When I am finished, I just rinse the starch off and that’s it! It saves me a lot of time and stores well. The only thing I would like more would be a choice for a smaller size. My microwave is too small so the cooker can’t turn on the rotation." —J. Reynolds

    34. set of press-on nails to almost instantly transform your hands when you don't have the money (or time) to actually go to a salon to get your nails done.

    35. A steaming microwave cleaner accurately named the "Angry Mama" because it's what your mom would look like if she saw how dirty your microwave was. This gadget works to dislodge the food and dirt inside the microwave so you can easily wipe the mess away. Save the scrubbing for the Scrub Daddy

    Just fill the gadget with water and vinegar and put it in the microwave. It's made of heat-resistant materials and is also top rack-dishwasher safe.

    Promising review: "It usually takes me 10 minutes of scrubbing to get my microwave clean each week. I filled to the line with vinegar and put her in for seven minutes. Once almost done, I removed her and easily wiped the mess up in only a few minutes. I would buy again even if she didn't come with instructions. She does produce a vinegar smell so next time I will add lemon juice as others suggested." —Teli

    36. A Super Shammy microfiber chenille specifically made to absorb up to seven times its weight in water so you can dry you dog ASAP before they burst out of the bathroom, splashing water throughout your house as they do their after-bath zoomies.

    I've had two dogs that both act like this after a bath, so I'm just going to assume that it's all dogs, right? The Soggy Doggy is a small woman-owned business specializing in products that keep your pup dry and comfortable.  

    Promising review: "I never review products but felt this deserved my time. It’s amazing how much water this soaks up. My bathroom has gone from a major disaster area, with water and multiple towels everywhere, to very contained. It saves so much energy and time when I only have to wipe down 'Daisy dog' and not the whole bathroom." —Denise E

    Get it from Amazon or The Grommet for $21.99 (available in four colors). 

    37. 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 8,000 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 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

    Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in seven colors).

    38. A rolling desk bike that's a viral TikTok sensation for a reason — it will be one of the best multitasking products you own. You can knock out your work and exercises at the same time, which means you can do so many other things after you've closed your laptop. 

    Not only is the rolling desk bike compact, but it's also height adjustable to make it fit perfectly for you. The pedaling is also quiet, there's eight resistance levels, and it will track your mileage, rpm, and more.

    Promising review: "I don't have room for an exercise bike or a desk in my small one-bedroom apartment, but now I have both, and it tucks neatly in a corner. I use this as a stand-up desk and exercise bike. It's easy to move, store, and looks decent. WFH has been challenging for me because I found myself hunched over a small laptop on my couch. This has changed my life for the better." —KatCo

    Get it from Amazon for $379.99 (clip the "$100 off" coupon on the product page for this price; available in five colors).
