Promising review: "I have bought about six of these for myself and friends/family. Cell phones, wallets, keys, change, and everything else doesn't fall through. I will not have another car without it. I was in a friend's car, and my phone dropped through the seat. He got a Drop Stop the next day." —kellen

Just fill the bottle with water and drop in a tablet. Let it work its magic for half an hour and then rinse out.
Promising review: "In all fairness, I first heard of this product while watching Shark Tank, and their pitch was impressive so I gave the underdog a try. Now, I'm on my fourth reorder. My whole family drinks out of various name-brand bottles, coffee mugs, etc. The fact is, they are rarely cleaned because they are a part of our daily lives and they are a pain in the ar$e to clean, because of the inconvenience that they are not dishwasher safe or don't fit. The answer is these tablets. They work and they're simple to use." —K.R.

Promising review: "When I received this pillow I thought it wasn't fluffy enough for me. I said I’d give it a try. The first night was amazing and every night after I wonder how I slept without this pillow. It’s perfect. I’m a hot sleeper and I don’t get hot with this pillow. It’s so comfortable I can’t even begin to describe it. I was skeptical, but after a month of sleeping on this pillow, I’d highly recommend it to anyone. I sleep so much better with this pillow." —cheryl r.

Promising review: "I have always hated using plastic bags, especially picking up in the yard with two large dogs. FINALLY, a solution! I saw them on a preview of Shark Tank (had to pause to see the name) and ordered some...loved them. Then quickly ordered more because I knew they'd be hard to find after the show aired. I was a little scared because of the yuck factor, but it was worth a try. And I'm so happy I did. Dry waste? No problem. Fresh waste? No problem. Twisting the corners after pickup WORKS! (I was skeptical). LOVE THESE! That said, I'm not sure about using these for walks...sometimes it's a long time before finding a trash bin. We'll see. But for the yard, it's perfect!" —SimpleTasks

Make sure you read all the directions before using so you don't accidentally give yourself a hickey! I've used this and it totally works. It won't completely get rid of 100% of your bug bites, but it makes a noticeable difference. I haven't scratched once since this amazing device came into my life.
Promising review: "I am a magnet for bites of all kinds and carry topical and medicines with me at all times — so I figured this would be a good product to see if it really works. I woke up with a bug bite on my arm so I used this little tool (three times per the instructions) — immediately after using, it stopped itching! And less than 24 hours later the bump/bite gone! There is a very faint red mark from using the thing, but a small price to pay IMO. Bottom line: It’s awesome. I’m carrying it with me everywhere!" —Rebecca

Promising review: "I recently replaced my weighted blanket with a Sleep Pod and I am never going back. I appreciated the comfort that I got from a weighted blanket, but it was so hot I wasn't able to last under it for long. It was also so heavy I couldn't take it with me anywhere. This design solves those problems. The fabric is breathable and so lightweight that I can comfortably use it in the summer and throw it in my tote bag on vacations. I feel calm and comforted every time I get in. I've used it while napping, while trying to calm down before going to bed at night, and while sitting on the sofa and needing some extra stress relief when binge-watching Chernobyl got too stressful. I can't rave enough about this thing, but I'll certainly keep trying!" —Mal Mower, BuzzFeed staff

Much to the disgust of my parents, I grew up chewing C Howard’s violet gum, so OF COURSE I had to spring for the chance to try some botanical-flavored seltzers. The cans have beautiful illustrations and are bursting with flavor (or as much as a seltzer can have). They’ll make a great addition to your summer bevy lineup.

Promising review: "This oil is amazing! My waxer suggested it because I had issues with ingrown hairs. It was a bit pricey so I avoided buying for awhile, but once I gave in I couldn't live without it! I primarily use after showering on my bikini area, but have used on legs post-shaving, post-tanning, etc. and it's amazing! My skin feels silky smooth and soft after every use, it smells great, and it lasts ages! It's what they use in my salon too, so the fact that the people waxing me use it gives me more confidence. The difference is incredible. Worth the splurge." —Cheryl

Ezpz is a mom-owned brand that aims to make mealtime easier for everyone.
Promising review: "Does your child 'feed the dog' during meal time? While this dish won't guarantee they won't continue that fun habit, it sure helps. Instead of 'wiping all the food' off his high chair tray, now my grandson's food sits in this sturdy dish that can't move. And I mean can't! It stays put and the cut pieces are easy to pick up it. Easy to clean too!" —Reeve
Get it from Amazon for $22.49 (available in four colors, and check out the rest of the Ezpz products).
Promising review: "This thing is freaking awesome!!! So I am NOT a barber, but I have over the years almost perfected a fade on my husband. The only thing I couldn’t do perfectly was point his sideburns, he has a very specific way that he likes it and when I tried, it just fell short. I saw this product on Shark Tank again (as an update) and decided to give it a whirl. What do I have to lose right? Well I used it for the first time and he got the best haircut to date. The sideburns look great, but also I used all the angles all over his head and it made it so seamless and easy to cut all along every edge. I highly suggest this to anyone who cuts men’s hair, be it in the home or at the barber's. I should also mention that HE is super pleased with how it looks. I can’t speak for using it on a beard yet but we are both so pleased with this product, seriously, buy it!" —Laurie Higgins

Promising review: "I am pleased with the Silidog ID tag that I ordered for my dog. The tag is a good size and the information is easy to read. The tag is sturdy and I expect it to last for quite a while. Shipping was surprisingly fast for a personalized item. The company provided excellent customer service." —DogID

Promising review: "I never knew what a doll I was until I got this lil' cutie in my life. The design process is simple and super satisfying. Just upload a photo with the outfit you want the doll to have, approve the check made by the designers, and wait on your incredible custom piece! Get ready to have your self-esteem to hit unhealthily happy levels." —Mal Mower, BuzzFeed staff

Promising review: "God's ramen cooker. This thing may seem like just an ordinary Tupperware, but I assure you it will blow that thin plastic garbage out of the water. It retains heat amazingly and does not bend or falter under extreme temperatures. I'm a college student and I have never felt such joy from making ramen in my small dorm microwave, for a 900-watt I recommend five minutes. Buy this product if you live and breathe air, because it is beautiful." —Theron

Promising review: "This is my favorite thing. I saw on Shark Tank and had to get a whole bunch of their products. After I saw them rub raw chicken on a counter and clean with one product and still have bacteria, then cleaned with this and there was almost nothing... I had to have it!!! I use it to clean countertops and for anything, really. It's great for wherever you need to use it!" —Cents For My Scents

FYI, it's self-sealing and nonplastic. It's also free of BPA, PVC, and latex.
Promising review: "I've tried a LOT of reusable bags as there are a lot of options out there all using a variety of materials. The fabric ones just get gross over time. The vinyl ones are hard to clean and aren't usually dishwasher-safe. There are other silicone ones that need a separate rod to close them that you can easily lose. This one is the most simple and easy to use. No separate pieces to lose. Can withstand any temperature/microwave/dishwasher/whatever. And if they get gunky they are very easy to clean and I trust that they aren't hiding gross crumbs in any of the crevices. My only complaint is the cost — they are the most expensive and I wish they offered a bulk discount. If they were cheaper I would use them for EVERYTHING (open cheese in cheese drawer, all snacks on the go, etc.)." —Megan A.

If you've never had pao de queijo before, it's basically gluten-free bread made out of cheese that's a speciality in Brazil! You can also buy a pack of those from Amazon for $39.97.
Anyway, back to the Pizza'nadas. These things are INCREDIBLE! If you grew up on Hot Pockets and Totino's Pizza Rolls, consider these a major step up. They're super tasty and the texture is spot on. I could easily live off of these (although I imagine not very long). They're the perfect lil' pick-me-up snack when you're craving something cheesy.

Promising review: "This was one of the first things on my list to buy for my wedding. I saw it on Shark Tank and thought it was a genius idea before I even got engaged. I had a very large ball gown with a long train and needed no help going to the restroom thanks to this thing. It's easy to use and comfortable to wear all night. It's also short enough that it doesn't peek out the bottom. I'm very short at 5'1" and still had a couple of inches of clearance when pulled up to my waist." —Tira

Promising review: "I can't tell you how many reading glasses I've killed in the past few years, largely from jettisoning them from my breast pocket or hooking them awkwardly in my shirt collar. These clips are amazing. They're discreet enough that I don't look like a goon wearing one on my shirt all day, and when I hang my glasses from them I can tie my shoes without spilling them lens-first on the ground. What else can a fellow ask for?" —Phil Selman

Promising review: "I work for the railroad and I am always getting my hands dirty! I could never seem to find anything that worked. Also, I live in Utah so when it starts getting cold my hands dry out. Well, with Grip Clean that doesn’t happen! I have my coworkers coming to my locker asking to get some soap since the soap we have at doesn't work as well as Grip Clean!" —Nick
