    29 Products That Are Just Really, Really Useful

    I could probably benefit from all of these.

    1. A set of plant-watering leaves that'll make bathing your greenery a mess-free experience. They clip right onto the sides of pots and ensure that water actually gets into the soil, instead of hanging out on top of the leaves.

    2. A Pac-man webcam cover that's super slim, so your computer will still be able to close properly with it attached. It's game over for you, pesky hackers and government spies.

    3. A roll of stick-on window privacy covering that'll block out harmful UV rays and keep your nosy neighbours from peeping into your home. They're transparent enough to let the light in, so you don't have to live under the cover of darkness at all times.

    4. A wool chair pad that'll make your hard office chair a bit more comfortable (and stylish, too!). It'll also save your booty from getting frosty on cold winter days.

    5. A set of fancy crystal nail files that'll cause less breakage than ceramic and metal alternatives, and will leave your nails feeling smoother than ever. They come with plastic sheaths, so you won't accidentally poke yourself if you leave them floating around in your bag.

    6. A single-cup stovetop espresso maker that'll help you turn out a barista-grade beverage in under five minutes. Now you won't have to spend all your money on mochas and macchiatos — you can just make them at home.

    7. A transparent Adidas backpack that'll save you from rifiling through your bag to find what you need, because you'll be able to see it all! It has a loop inside that you can string your keys through, so they won't get buried at the bottom.

    8. A time-marked water bottle that'll encourage you to drink more H2O, so you'll stay hydrated all day long. The larger size fits nearly four litres of water, so you won't have to refill it every hour.

    9. A set of wallet-sized pastel highlighters that'll fit easily into smaller pockets and pencil cases. As an added bonus, they won't dry out, even if you leave their caps off for hours.

    10. A jar of cult-favourite Aztec Secret bentonite clay mask that will suck every last bit of gunk out of your pores in under 20 minutes (and make you look like a swamp monster). You can also use it as a spot treatment, if you don't want to cover your whole face.

    11. A pack of sweat-wicking ankle socks that'll save you from getting swamp feet during a work out. They have cushioned heel guards that'll protect you from getting blisters when you're sprinting.

    12. A Ninja 4-in-1 indoor grill that can do everything from air fry french fries to roast chicken to char burgers. It can even take food from frozen to perfectly grilled in 25 minutes, so it's a lifesaver for last-minute dinners.

    13. An in-sink dish drainer that'll help you maximize space in your small kitchen. It'll also save your ceramics from bashing against the bottom of your sink, saving them from getting chipped during washing.

    14. A stylish, portable bag hanger that doubles as a bracelet when it's not in use. You can clip it to walls, doors, chairs, and tables, so your bag never has to sit on the floor again.

    15. This triple-insulated Corkcicle bottle that'll keep your water (or wine) chilled all day long. It has a wide mouth, so you won't have to struggle to get ice cubes into it.

    16. A handy condiment fork and holder that'll latch right onto a jar so that you can eat your midnight snack at the fridge without any fuss.

    17. A hanging boot organizer that will keep your fall and winter footwear from taking up all your cupboard space. It has enough space for three pairs and comes with one pair of inflatable inserts that will save your boots from losing their shape (you can grab extra boot shapers here).

    18. A bottle of transparent skin crack care that'll help seal painful cracks in your fingers, hands, feet, and elbows. Reviewers say it's a lifesaver for people with dry skin, and is great for guitar players who don't want to cover their digits in bandages.

    19. A cast iron tortilla press that'll give your Taco Tuesday celebrations a serious upgrade. Reviewers love how heavy-duty it is, and recommend using parchment paper to keep the station from getting gunked up.

    20. A super-snuggly comforter set that's velour on one side and sherpa fleece on the other, giving you the best of both worlds. It's packed with a pillowy down alternative that won't stab you in your sleep like tiny bird feathers would.

    21. An outlet shelf, so that you can charge your devices and not worry about accidentally stepping on them. It can hold up to 10 lbs, so you can safely store heavier items, like your tools or speakers on it.
