The 24 pockets are deep enough for product bottles (like cleaning wipes and disinfectant sprays). Or you could use this type of organizer for shoes!
Promising review: "I'm currently using this for cleaning supplies in a closet and it does its job. Good quality fabric and the pockets are roomy for supplies. The included door hangers are big, so they'll fit all size doors." —Alexandriathered

Promising review: "I bought two shelves for my medicine cabinet and you would be surprised at how much happiness these shelves bring me. My cabinet was so cluttered! Whenever I would remove anything, other items would tumble down on me. Now I can see everything and know where everything is. All is organized and nothing falls down. I strongly recommend these shelves." —Custmr Oklahoma

The rack has a no-scratch coating so it won't damage the items you choose to store.
Promising Review: "These are so helpful. I was getting tired of having to dig through our pots and pans every time I wanted to cook. I like that you can use this either vertically or horizontally. It really helps when you're tight on space. All of our stuff fits except for one of our very small quart lids. Other than that, it's perfect. A cheap and effective solution to our problem! We bought two of them." —bf

The sturdy polyester won't tear, and the built-in handles allow you to move the organizer from car to car.
Promising review: "I really wasn't expecting this to be as strong and well made as it is. It opens in a flash, and has two compartments with extra support for the bottom. It is really compact and takes up almost no room in my trunk, a big plus also. It stands open while I load it, and doesn't collapse on me like other organizers I have had. I use it all the time and it has held up very well." —Melanie P. Moses

And add a car safety hammer to your emergency roadside kit, too!
The plastic handle means your hands won't get dirtied, but we still suggest wearing gloves!
Promising review: "I'm so embarrassed to show how disgusting my toilets have been, but it's worth it for me to help anyone who has suffered as I have. We built our house and have lived in it 33 years. We dug a well and the water was beautiful, until air hit it. The copper, iron, and lime are all so high the chart doesn't even go that high. We have spent thousands on a huge filter that filters all the water coming into the house from the well. My toilets have been disgusting to me, though clean (as clean as I can get them). This pumice stone — HOLY MOLY — my toilets are clean!!!!! I am totally amazed. It took about 30 minutes on each one. The stains are gone." —Libby Nance

But first, get annoyed that your shower isn't draining and call your parents.
Promising review: "This product did exactly what I had hoped it would do. Our bathtub was barely draining and I have really long hair, so I knew there had to be a huge wad of hair clogged down there. We were originally skeptical concerning its durability being plastic, but the price was so low. AMAZING! So Simple! The snake is very durable and the jagged edges make it easy to pull up any debris stuck in the drain or pipe. I’d buy these 100 times over!!" —LuchesKa's

And it has a reverse function to clear jams and protection from overheating.
Promising review: "I am *impressed* with this little shredder. We had several months' backlog after unexpectedly having to cancel our quarterly shred service. I was expecting to spend hours catching up. Boy, was I wrong! This little dude ate envelopes full of credit offers, balance transfers, and every other annoying POS junk mail we get. I got through it all, including one time to empty it, in less than an hour. Never jammed, never overheated. I can't say enough good things about this little guy! Just buy it!" —Jenna H

You'll receive a tape measurer, a hammer, pliers, a bit driver, a bit connector, scissors, a utility snap-off knife, four screwdrivers, hex keys, and 20 screwdriver bits. Plus a carrying case to house all these things!
Promising review: "The tools are entirely serviceable. The best part is the variety of tools they throw into a very small case. I haven't damaged any of them, but they don't feel as durable as a high quality set of shop or automotive tools – but that wasn't what I was looking for. It's great to tighten the odd screw, install small items, or tap gizmos back into place rather than having to wait for building maintenance or IT to show up. A good deal!" —Geriatric Suthriner

Promising review: "They are so well-made, easily washable, colorful, easy as a shoulder bag, and convenient to keep in my purse or in the car. I am always prepared to shop! It's a good-sized, sturdy bag to accommodate all my needs!! Great as a beach bag, also." —Pat Murray

I took my Hydro Flask on a hiking trip and it was sheer perfection. It kept my water cold for hours on end, never leaked in my backpack, and took numerous falls without denting.
Promising review: "I absolutely LOVE my Hydro Flask! I use it every day and carry it with me anywhere I go. It's been great at keeping my water cold. I left ice in this thing overnight and woke up to ice cold water with still plenty of ice left in it. I've also purposely left it in my car on a 90-degree day in California and I came back to find that the water was still cold. I was amazed!" —Isaias

Each board provides a handy photo so you know which is which, plus they're lightweight, flexible, slip-resistant, and durable.
Promising review: "Very durable so far! I bought them four months ago, used them almost daily and got usual marks from knives but never got close to cutting through. I've put them in the dishwasher and while they did bow slightly, I just bent them in the opposite direction before storing them and they're good as new. The little photos haven't washed off, either. They haven't slipped on me. Overall, great for the price." —T.

These fresheners can last up to two years! To keep them at their best, put them in the sun once a month.
Promising review: "Our boys play a lot of sports, but we bought these specifically for our teenage son's soccer cleats. We tried spray and sneaker balls, but they didn't touch the smell. His cleats were so gross if he took them off in the car I had to roll down the windows. When these bags are in, you can't smell the cleats. If you stick your nose up in his shoes they still have an odor but I feel like they are constantly having to battle the funk so they are doing a great job. He can also stick his cleats in his bag and not make all his kits smell. These are definitely worth the purchase." —Aimee

All necessary wall mounting hardware is included! This one has five hooks and two pockets.
Promising review: "This caddy is very useful and helpful. Our entire family uses it to keep up with all of our various keys. We didn’t use the mounting kit that came with it because it was more convenient to just use command strips to avoid damaging the wall. We placed it directly behind our front door so that as soon as we walk in the door or prepare to leave home, we always know where our keys last were. We also used it as a reminder to mail or take various things out the door with us. It was worth the purchase." —Cali Gal

Promising review: "I have tried many many different sprays, wipes and concentrates for cleaning vehicle interiors. This is my personal favorite. I love how it penetrates even the most hard stuck-on dirt and makes it easy to wipe up. After a few days with my windows open I noticed that unlike other detail sprays this one dries completely matte and leaves no sticky residue behind. Everyone can appreciate that." —Mom of 2

If you're a renter or home-owner, you need some basic cleaning supplies that'll make your parents feel like you've got everything under control – and this is one of them.
Promising review: "This is the first time that I used these, and I am impressed. To use them, you run very hot water from your tap into the disposer. Then you add the cleaner pack to the disposer while the water is turned down to a trickle, and turn the disposer on. I initially thought you tore the paper and poured the cleaner in the disposer, but you add the pack as is — the paper gets dissolved as the disposer is run. There is a scrubbing bubbles type of foam that appears, and once it stops foaming, your disposal is clean. It took two of these to really clean the disposer (it hadn't been cleaned in some time), and they did a fantastic job. Glisten will now be part of our regular kitchen cleaning routine." —Wyrmwood

With separate sections for goals and bill reminders, you'll be able to track your spending against your saving. It'll keep you super aware of just how much you spend a day versus a month.
Promising review: "Best budget planner I ever owned. Love the color! It's easy to take with you and jot down everything that was spent that day and then for the entire week. Planning what you spent, what you owe, and what you plan to pay for is so easy. Allows you to be creative regarding your spending. I can even use the different colors for what I plan to spend on different projects regarding my art, my home décor, my writing, and my overall creativity.

Say goodbye to the confusion of missing or torn garments! They'll also come in handy while traveling! They'll help organize your suitcase so items don't go spilling out the moment you open.
Promising review: "This set is AMAZING! The largest of the bags is huge, think pillowcase-sized. The assortment of medium and smaller ones fit the bill for all my laundry needs. Good, sturdy material and zippers. I used the largest one to wash my queen-sized duvet cover with some other bedding. I used to wash them in separate, smaller loads to avoid the sheet tangle. These large bags cured that problem and I can wash everything together without having a big knot to pull apart. Just buy them, you'll be so glad you did." —Elizabeth

Promising review: "I've always loved Mentholatum and, as this is the original, that hasn't changed. I'm 75 years old and don't remember ever having used anything else; my mother used it on herself and on me when I was a child. I've tried other brands of menthol ointments, but they don't work as well as this one. I use it for chapped lips and under my nostrils when I have a cold to make breathing easier. I even use it to relieve muscle aches." —Judith A. Carlson

The crystals attract and trap excess moisture, leaving the air free of musty odors.
Promising review: "We had a flood in our kitchen. Our home builder came in with dehumidifiers and dried up the area. They sprayed for mold and mildew as well. Even after all of that work, we still had a faint musty smell coming from under the sink. We have an open floor plan into the living room and the odor just wafted into that open area, plus all the way to the entryway. I was so over the smell, so I decided to try DampRid. It completely worked. Within two days my house smelled normal again. I can't even recommend this product enough. It's still under my sink." —The Byrne Family

With a more forceful stream, you'll get better warmth and coverage. But no worries, this shower head can reduce your water use up to 20%!
Promising review: ""This shower head has CHANGED MY LIFE. The water pressure in my prewar building is quite low and my previous shower head gave me a narrow stream of trickle that I would have to rotate my body under in order to get entirely wet. The water temperature would also vacillate widely between freezing cold and burning hot, so I was often doing a little dance to get out of its narrow stream in time to not get frozen or burned. Well, the change was immediate and phenomenal. Suddenly, I have a shower with terrific water pressure and a wide spray that is a joy to experience every morning. And although it didn't advertise this feature, the shower head has also somehow managed to even out the former temperature swings. If you are on the fence about trying this, DO IT! You will love it!" —Andy Monroe
