    39 Practical Products That Could Make A Difference In Every Home

    Did you know you that your dryer vent needs to be cleaned periodically? Because I did not.

    1. A Feed-N-Wax polish and conditioner guaranteed to have you crying tears of pure joy. This blend of carnauba and beeswax takes your oldest furniture (the kind you've inherited from a grandparent) and makes it look brand 👏 spankin' 👏 new 👏, providing a protective coating while removing every single water mark in sight.

    2. A compact Casabella dustpan and brush set you'll want to keep in your kitchen. This will allow you to quickly sweep up alllll that Cocoa Puffs cereal you spilled, but it won't take up as much space as a boring regular-sized broom.

    3. Affresh dishwasher cleaning tablets because HOW can you get clean, glistening dishes if the dishwasher itself is *gag* covered in grime? Answer: You can't. These babies are here to help.

    4. A microfiber drying mat for all my fellow New Yorkers who understand the struggle of limited countertop space. This is designed with a removable dish rack that acts as a way to store everything from pans to cutlery, but can easily be folded up and stored away when not in use.

    5. A power scrubber kit equipped with three different-sized attachments, each one perfect for the corners, floor, and door of your shower. This takes off years of accumulated build-up in just mere minutes, doing a better (and faster) job than you would have been able to do by hand. In the words of Daft Punk, this is just better, faster, and stronger.

    6. An electric dehumidifier ideal for rooms with a humidity level similar to that of a tropical rainforest. With this, you'll no longer wake up feeling like you took a shower in your sleep.

    7. Reusable cable ties to prevent all "these charging cords are tangled beyond help" situations. These will keep 'em all looking nice, tidy, and visible, meaning you'll *actually* be able to spot the chord you need at this very moment.

    8. A tiny knife sharpener because that knife of yours can barely slice through bread, let alone a steak. This features two sharpening options (coarse and fine), and is designed with a non-slip base to ensure that it stays put whilst in use.

    9. A pumice cleaning stone capable of removing calcium, lime, and hard water stains on everything from your toilet bowl to your outdoor barbecue. The stone itself is also surprisingly gentle and *won't* scratch the surface of, say, your porcelain throne.

    10. A waterproof tray for anyone who just deep-cleaned their hardwood floors. This multi-purpose tray (perfect for both indoor and outdoor use!) will prevent muddy footsteps from being tracked into your house, serving as a reminder to please take off your shoes as soon as you lift a toe past the doorway.

    11. A FlexiSnake millipede not meant for the faint of heart. Use this to easily de-clog every drain in your home, but prepare for the horror you'll experience as you dig up about one million pounds of hair and built-up gunk.

    12. A plastic basket that is thankfully collapsible, meaning you can easily stow it away anywhere (under your bed, on top of your washer, next to the skeletons in your closet, etc.) when not in use.

    13. An over-the-door mesh organizer that can house up to 24 pairs, which would have been perfect for Carrie Bradshaw if she actually lived in apartment on par with NYC standards (alas she lived in luxury in a BROWNSTONE???).

    14. A non-adhesive shelf and drawer liner that is super easy to install. Just cut the size you need and BAM! You're done. Your cutlery now has a comfortable resting place.

    15. BPA-free silicone wine glasses that will save you so much freakin' money in the long run. If your clumsiness has shattered a wine glass (or two or ten), then this unbreakable design is calling your name. That's right! They're shatter-proof. Let's no longer mourn the beautiful crystal glasses you were gifted at your bridal shower. They're in the past.

    16. A non-abrasive Bar Keepers Friend cleansing and polishing powder that will destroy years of icky build-up on all of your porcelain, copper, glass, tile, stainless steel, plastic, and brass. Time to grab your cookware set, folks, because the after photos are about to get GOOD.

    17. Battery-operated LED lights perfect for those basement stairs that lead into your laundry room, which doubles as a dark abyss that's possibly the home of a ghost. These puppies are equipped with motion sensors — meaning they'll turn on the second your toe hits the ground. (Every family starring in a horror movie needs these installed ASAP.)

    18. Organic wool dryer balls here to save you an elephant ton of money in the long run because you won't have to constantly re-purchase pricy dryer sheets. These hypoallergenic dryer balls (made of 100% wool, FYI) will leave your laundry wrinkle- and static-free, plus they'll make all of your clothes, linens, diapers, etc. feeling softer and fluffier.

    19. Reusable silicone bags to store the sandwich you so proudly prepared and brought to work today. While this won't stop you from eating your lunch for breakfast (me bringing food from home = me eating it at 10AM), it *will* stop you from using all those wasteful plastic baggies.

    20. An Iron OUT spray gel for anyone whose cleaning products have been a little ~rusty~ lately. This promises to get rid of hard water rust build-up like it's no one's business.

    21. A splurge-worthy simplehuman dish rack that is truly *chef kisses fingers* perfect. It's rust-proof, can hang four (large) wine glasses, includes a drainage system for excess water, and it's FINGERPRINT-PROOF.

    22. A Woolite cleaner designed with an attached fabric brush that really ~lifts~ away any and all stains produced by a child, a pet, or an accident-prone couch owner who likes to spill is even effective at neutralizing the strongest of pet odors, which is no small feat.

    23. Bottle Bright cleaning tablets to quickly remove all that funky, gross, probably-starting-to-smell build-up in your favorite water bottle. These are biodegradable, chlorine-free, and — best of all — require absolutely NO effort or scrubbing, working to make even the inside of your bottle look like it's brand new.

    24. An OXO double-sided cutting board designed with a juice groove on one side perfect for cutting up fruits, while the other side can be used to avoid cross-contamination. This is *also* odor-resistant with tapered handles that make it comfortable to carry around.

    25. Souper Cubes freezing trays to keep leftovers fresh and not taking up precious space in the fridge. These stackable silicone trays are an amazing way to store soups and sauces until they're ready to be consumed.

    26. A countertop simplehuman trash can because raise your hand if you sometimes leave used cotton balls on your vanity table. Don't be shy, we all do it.

    27. Reusable bamboo towels that are great at wiping up spills, saving you a ton of $$$ (they last for up to six months and can be thrown in the wash when dirty), and they cut down on waste because you won't have to purchase more paper. So in other words, a total win.

    28. An over-the-cabinet organizer to keep your many (many many many) hair products in order. This includes blow dryers, straighteners, curlers, wands, crimpers, and whatever the heck else!

    29. A Bio Clean chemical-free treatment because guess what? Your bathroom fixtures need as much TLC as the rest of us, and the water stains are practically *begging* to be cleaned off already.

    30. A double laundry hamper so you could automatically separate your white tee from your black dress. Plus, this handy thing holds a ton — four loads of laundry, to be exact!

    31. Miracle-Gro food spikes you'll appreciate if you love plants, but a) weren't blessed with the advantage of a green thumb, and b) laziness is your defining feature. These slowly release micronutrients into soil for up to two months, thus allowing your indoor plants to thrive.

    32. A waterproof curtain complete with nine mesh pockets that provide perfect storage spots for all your bathing necessities. Shampoo? Conditioner? Your trust loofah? All within reach, and they won't be scattered around your shower floor.

    33. A cooktop cleaning kit here to help your oven look as clean as the day Home Depot delivered it to you. This works to cut grease stains and burnt cookie deposits like a knife, cleaning your cooktop surface more efficiently than any of the multi-surface sprays you've been using until this point.

    34. Organizing bins to give your junk drawer some structure. This makes it easy to find pens, paper clips, the scissors you can never seem to find, that spare screw, the Target receipt you hopefully didn't throw out, etc.

    35. Magnetic all-purpose clips because true heartbreak is chomping on a beautiful Dorito just to realize that — GASP — it's gone stale.

    36. A set of plastic organizers capable of turning every junk drawer into a blissful feeling of I-can-spot-everything bliss. From thumbtacks and screws to makeup brushes and rubber bands, these clear dividers make it easy to separate all of your most miscellaneous possessions (which is no 👏 small 👏 feat 👏).

    37. A dryer vent cleaning system because YES, that vent needs to be cleaned once in a while. Clogged vents = longer drying times = higher utility bills = less money in your bank account that can be put toward Uber Eats.

    38. An over-the-cabinet holder to keep miscellaneous products out of sight, but not out of mind (and not to be dramatic, but euphoria is having a permanent home for your muffin pan).

    39. A Downy wrinkle-eliminating spray for the person who maybe doesn't feel like showing up to that business meeting with a button-down that's wrinkled beyond repair. PLUS! This spray works to eliminate static and odor, which is especially lovely if you're a bit behind on laundry (which I totally am not hahah).
