We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A drill brush kit you can attach to your drill/driver for the most REWARDING cleaning sesh ever — no elbow grease necessary.
Useful Products is a US-based small business established in 2007 by car wash owner, electrician, and former bodybuilder Anthony LaPolla that specializes in drill-cleaning brushes and attachments.
Each of the different brush colors indicates which tasks the brushes are meant for based on their bristle type, so be sure to check which one is best suited for whatever you need to for! Yellow is the “all-purpose” medium bristle, but some are softer and harder depending on what types of surfaces you’re cleaning (but none of them will scratch!).
Promising review: "I have NO idea why this product would ever have less than a 5-star review. It is a great brush set. I used all three in an effort to get some mildew stains off the grout in my shower. NOTHING worked, but a bit of bleach and these brushes worked like a charm! I used the larger brush on the floor of the shower and to remove some soap scum from the glass shower doors. WOW! Where has this been all my life?! Excellent product, works like it should in conjunction with your power drill." —SomeGirl
Get it from Useful Products on Amazon for $18.95 (available in six colors and stiffness levels).
2. A pair of Beckham Hotel Collection pillows because you haven't replaced yours in ohhh, three or four years? If they have sweat marks and unexplained stains... they're a lost cause, boo.
Promising review: "I’ve been on the hunt to buy a down pillow like the ones I slept on at the top-rated Loews Hotel in Philly. This is that pillow! I’ve bought pillows online many times but nothing compared. This is the first pillow I’ve ever bought that didn’t hurt my neck or make me regret spending the money. I will absolutely be ordering another set! Absolutely the comfiest pillow, you won’t regret it. I never write reviews but just had to because I know the search for pillows is difficult when you can’t feel them. I promise you won’t regret it!" —Amazon Customer
Get them from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in two sizes; clip the coupon for 20% off this price!)
3. A ventilated cable management box if the mess of cords under your desk makes it hard for you to concentrate on anything else. That may sound dramatic, but I'm right there with you!!
Promising review: "A must-buy product for your messy home or office. Exactly what I was looking for to help save space and hide my cable cords." —Andrew Olson
Get it from Amazon for $15.79.
4. A set of brown sugar savers from BuzzFeed's Goodful collection. This way, you can stop buying new brown sugar, using a few teaspoons in whatever you're baking, and then throwing it back into your cabinet where it turns into petrified rock, never to be used again without the aid of a pickaxe, at least.
Promising review: "Always wanted to try these to see if they really work. They do!! I use it in my brown sugar container and it keeps it nice and soft. Also put cookies in a plastic container and threw in the other one I got and it kept them soft as welll. Great!!!" —D Hart
Get a set of two from Amazon for $7.65.
5. A pair of fillable paint touch-up pens because you certainly don't have room to store eight buckets of paint but you *will* lose your mind if you can't fix that lovely little scratch your dog left on the dining room wall.
Promising review: "I recently had the interior of my house painted. I purchased these pens thinking that I might need to touch things up from time to time. Well, I did, like when I pushed the garbage can against the wall. Or when I found spots the painters missed. I love how easy these pens are to fill. I've got a couple stashed in various rooms. When I see a spot, I just grab the pen, shake it to mix the paint, and twist the barrel. Love these!" —Karen Ranney
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $16.99+ (also available in a five-pack).
6. A portable car vacuum if your toddler's favorite game is to throw their Cheerios all over the backseat and then grind them into the cushions and floorboards on their way out of the car. 🙃
Promising review: "This item is perfect. As a busy wife and mom it is nearly impossible to keep my vehicle clean. This portable vacuum makes it much easier. It’s so convenient to have on hand and clean up crumbs 'as they fall' lol. My husband likes it so much that he ordered one for his vehicle." —Christian Love
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in four colors/configurations).
7. A big ol' pumice stone on a stick poised to obliterate stubborn stains left by limescale, hard water, calcium, iron, and rust — things your automatic toilet bowl cleaner is unforch no match for.
Promising review: "What witchcraft is this?? Five minutes of rubbing with this thing and I removed the ring that has been on my toilet for years. I had previously tried half a dozen cleaning products with zero success. I wish I would have bought this a long time ago. One tip is to open the plastic wrapper outside or over a trash can, as the white dust is annoying to clean up." —Amazon Customer
Get it on Amazon for $13.99+ (available in packs of one, two, and four).
8. A nonslip mouse pad made to elevate your wrist and keep it in an ergonomic position while you click away at a keyboard responding to work emails and — more importantly — sending memes to your friends on Slack.
Read more about how an ergonomic mouse can help prevent carpal tunnel at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "The design is gorgeous and so comfy that I even take it when I travel for business. This has relieved wrist pain from working on the computer every day." —Bianka P Gonzalez G
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in 16 patterns).
9. A Waterpik because despite the fact that your medicine cabinet has enough floss for you to start your own dentist practice, you seldom reach for it.
The floss alternative is proven to remove up to 99.9% of plaque when used properly, and it's got some advanced features, too. There are 10 different pressure settings, a massage mode that stimulates your gums, and a built-in timer that automatically pauses to let you know when you've been cleaning for 30 seconds and then a minute.
Promising review: "So... this Waterpik is amazing. I had 4-mm and 5-mm periodontal pockets from not flossing and also experienced some bone loss. I literally hated flossing and would find myself avoiding to floss even though I needed it very much. My gums were red, swollen, and inflamed because I was in the early stages of periodontal disease. I started using the Waterpik flosser, and instantly like this way of flossing much better! After using it consecutively each night for only 5 days, my gums were noticeably better and felt much better. After 2 weeks of using the Waterpik flossing, coconut oil pulling, and mouthwash treatment, my gums have done a complete 180 and my mouth and gums are starting to heal properly!" —Ebony
Get it from Amazon for $68.50+ (available in four colors).
10. And — while we're on the topic of dental hygiene — a "flossing toothbrush" with two layers of bristles. One layer being regular firm ones, and the other being longer ones that are ten times thinner and mimic floss as they get between your teeth but are gentle on your gums.
Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS, that specializes in antimicrobial toothbrushes designed to get deeper cleans even patients with "great" dental hygiene might miss with traditional brush and floss routines.
Here's what BuzzFeeder Emma Lord has to say:
"I personally bought this at the recommendation of a former BuzzFeed coworker and love it just after the first few days of use! I use an electric toothbrush usually, but I feel like I'm getting a much more satisfying clean from these?? Especially because I tend to get yellow stains between my teeth no matter *how* much I floss, and these bristles seem to actually target that a lot more effectively."
Promising review: "I've been using Dr. Plotka's toothbrushes for awhile now, and I can't emphasize enough how good these are. These, hands down, are the best I've ever used. The bristles are very thin, so you are actually flossing as you brush. The statement 'naturally eliminates 99.9% of bacteria' hooked me, and I'm glad I took a chance. I've never been one that liked soft bristle toothbrushes because I just never felt like it was enough. The bristles are soft — but with a punch. I'm having to use less effort getting my teeth clean because the thin bristles get right in between my teeth. I definitely highly recommend this product." —Lisa Stepanski
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $8.91.
11. A Squatty Potty designed to unkink your colon and help ya go, you know? In its 10+ years of existence, the product has racked up more than 39,000 5-star reviews from pleased poopers.
Read more about constipation relief at home, including using a squatting position, at Cleveland Clinic.
Promising review: "Perfect conditions for first time with the Squatty Potty. After a weekend of white cheese dip heaven at the local Mexican restaurant, I knew I would be paying the consequences. Yep, you guessed it, hemorrhoid hell. Enter the Squatty Potty. I was excited I got this for my pregnant wife and couldn’t wait to be the first to give it a go. I got in the potty, raised my feet and literally the poo just slid right out out my body with minimal straining. This device is a game changer. It will save me over the year cause I won’t need hemorrhoid ointment. This would have saved Elvis’s life!! If Elvis had a Squatty Potty he would be with us today. Thank you Squatty Potty." —UTGrad
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in two sizes).
12. A posture corrector if four years of working from home has left your spine in questionable condition. (It me.)
Promising review: "This is WONDERFUL! I’ve been experiencing middle back pain for some time now, in part because my posture is bad. After the first few hours, it was greatly alleviated. I leave it on for a few hours, take it off for a few, and put it back on again. First relief I’ve had in a long time! But that’s not all. It is so well made, unlike any other posture corrector I’ve ever had, because it is 1) easy to put on, 2) made of comfortable material, and 3) brilliantly designed so that it doesn’t make you feel constricted. Furthermore, the hook-and-loop straps that adjust are narrower than what you stick them to so, unlike others I’ve had, they don’t overlap and scratch you! I am so grateful for this! It’s the greatest!" —Marylynn G. Stults
Get it from Amazon for $19.97.
13. A Simplehuman dual-compartment trash can that makes your desire to be eco-friendly wayyyy more doable. Perhaps even better, it has a step pedal so you don't ever have to touch an icky lid.
Yes, the price tag is hefty, but it does come with a 10-year warranty.
Promising review: "Never paid this much for a garbage can but have no regrets. Works perfectly for my household. I live alone and most of my trash gets recycled so I use the larger bin for recycling and the small bin for garbage. Item arrived in perfect condition. Have had for several months now, no issues to date. Love being able to open the lid hands free; soft-close feature is a wonderful bonus." —Grandmalice
Get it from Amazon for $149.99.
14. A Baseboard Buddy with a four-foot extendable pole that makes cleaning your baseboards, moldings, ceiling fans, and grates nice and easy on your knees, shoulders, and back. If you're someone who forgets to clean those things until big ol' cobwebs are visible, it's probably a good thing to have on hand.
The kit comes with one Baseboard Buddy and three reusable pads which can be used wet or dry.
Promising review: "For many, this may seem like a waste of money. Not for me. I am over 65 and have difficulty getting up and down from the floor. As a result, my baseboards did not get dusted as frequently as the rest of the house. This made it so much easier for me." —retired
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
15. A Chirp back pain relief set because once you reach your twenties, it becomes apparent that it's only downhill from here. Plus, once you're off your parents' insurance, you'll also learn that trips to the chiropractor cost a pretty penny.
Promising review: "I never realized how much I was limiting my movements due to back and neck soreness. These wheels have been a godsend! I feel like the Tin Man once he got oil!" —Ladonna A.
Get it from Chirp for $99.99.
16. A Conair fabric defuzzer powerful enough to remove pills and matted fibers from your sofa (and even clothes) but gentle enough that no damage is left in its wake.
Check out our write-up of this magical fabric defuzzer! The battery-operated model requires two AA batteries that aren't included, but you can buy some right here!
Promising review: "OK, I don’t normally rave about things like this. I bought this on a whim in a last attempt to save my favorite duvet cover. The pills had gotten to the point where it was seriously uncomfortable to sleep with them getting all up in my leg space. I thought I was going to have to get a new duvet cover entirely. Along came this lil' baby. Not only is my duvet cover basically brand new, but I have found a new hobby. I’m depilling everything. Sweatshirts, leggings, blankets, socks, anything that looks like it needs some love. It does the job quickly and leaves everything looking fresh. Everyone needs to own this." —Sydney Jensen
Get it from Amazon for $13.41+ (available in six colors and rechargeable or battery operated).
17. A set of reusable microfiber mop pads (yes — they're compatible with your Swiffer) so you can say goodbye to those single-use ones that are 1) Expensive and 2) Not great for the planet.
They can be used wet or dry and on basically every type of flooring and even drywall if you're so inclined. Since they can be thrown in the wash, one microfiber pad can replace up 100 single-use pads.
Promising review: "Just used these for the first time with my Swiffer WetJet and I gotta say I am impressed! Went on easily and cleaned the floors easily! I always hated the one-time use pads and never felt like they got my floor clean. This review is NOT sponsored, I bought these with my own money because I’m sick of single-use products. Seriously, buy these now!!!" —AKGross
Get a set of two from Amazon for $10.94.
18. A cutting board and strainer combo if you've got v little counter and cabinet space to work with. The colander part even collapses in for easy storage!
Promising review: "This is one of my favorite things I have purchased for our tiny apartment! It's a pretty good size cutting board and I can see it fitting over most sinks. I LOVE the bowl inside that can let wet ingredients drain liquid directly into the sink. It's seriously SO nice to have this when you're limited on counter space!" —Atara
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two colors).
19. A Blueapple freshness extender because you *plan* to eat all your farmers market finds in the next few days but who knows what life will throw your way? (I always plan on being good until the "we missed you!" discounts from Seamless, DoorDash, and UberEats hit my inbox...)
The Blueapple works by absorbing ethylene gas, which is what causes produce to ripen. Each Blueapple lasts for three months.
Promising review: "It works. Simple as that. I have even ordered more because it works wonders in my vegetable drawer and also in my fruit basket. Before it seemed things would go bad so fast (three to four days). Now I can see veggies last two weeks — some fruits a week longer than expected." —MFC
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $26.99.
20. A hamper with three separate compartments so you have no excuse for mixing darks and whites. It even has a solid top where you can fold clean laundry and iron if the mood ever strikes (couldn't be me).
You can also fold your clothes on the top rack!
Promising review: "I love this. It makes doing the laundry so much easier because I can divide everything and it has the table so I can fold on top of it. I have another one from another store and when you put too many clothes in it, the bags fall out. This one is super sturdy." —Alyson
Get it from Wayfair for $58.99 (originally $102.99).
21. A pack of Shout dye-trapping sheets if you've ever accidentally dyed an entire load of whites pink thanks to a rogue red sock.
By reducing the number of necessary washes, you'll save on laundry, water, and electricity.
Promising review: "I’ve used color catchers for many years so I can wash darks and lights together. They save time and money. You can tell they work, because you see the color they soak up. If I have a garment that I know runs badly, I still wash it separately so as not to tempt fate. Recently, however, a new, purple shirt took me by surprise and ran profusely. I had two color catchers in that load. They both turned deep violet. The only purple stain was on a white dish towel that had ended up next to the shirt and sat there with it for a couple of hours after the wash cycle finished. Everything else was fine. These are seriously one of the best home inventions of the modern era." —Go Steelers
Get a box of 72 from Amazon for $10.95 (also available in packs of two and four boxes).
22. A seat cushion because despite the junk in your trunk, sitting from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. is taking a serious toll on your tailbone. Give your tush some relief with this thiccc memory foam cushion.
Promising review: "On a long and uncomfortable flight to Hawaii I managed to mess up my back and tail bone really bad. Nothing seemed to help. That’s how I ended up here, looking for some relief. This thing is magical, like sitting on the back of a unicorn while coming down a rainbow. I sat down on it and all the pressure points were not giving me any issues, was able to drive out of state the next day NO PROBLEM. Outstanding quality, doesn’t just squish down when you sit on it. BUY IT! The cover is also removable and washable." —Mrs. J
Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in five colors).
23. A pouch of foaming garbage disposal cleaner to eliminate the special stank that can only be produced after years of shredding up meat, produce, and whatever that mystery blob was that came out of your long-lost Tupperware.
Each pouch of lemon-scented formula gets you four uses. Dump a pack into your disposal (while off at first!), run the water just a bit, and then start it and watch as the blue foam gets to work eliminating odors and loosening up nasties that have been caught down there for who knows how long.
Promising review: "These are amazing! I was skeptical at first but I followed the directions (which are super easy) and was grossed out and satisfied at the same time to see the gunk that was removed. You put the entire packet down your disposal (I read that twice too) and magic happens in under two minutes! That is what I call powerful and successful cleaning! The scent is super clean and light with a hint of lemon. These will definitely be a cleaning staple for me." —KPITT
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $9.96.
24. A laminate-/hardwood-/tile-friendly microfiber mop with a two-chamber wringer bucket. One side washes your mop pad (a built-in scraper gets off gunk, too) while the other side squeezes it dry — no manual wringing necessary.
It also comes with ~three~ microfiber mop pads so you're never left hanging when one is in the wash.
Promising review: "I was looking for a set like this for a while but nothing looked right. So glad I found this one, it's a very high quality and it cleans very well. The bucket design is awesome, smart for storing, too, as it doesn't take up much space. I love the washing and drying sections, they really do the job right." —Vironika
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in two styles and with three or eight mop pads).
25. An ergonomic desk chair because turns out, working from bed — spine curved like a delectable lil' Pringle — wasn't your best idea.
Promising review: "I got spoiled by a Herman Miller chair at work. I've been putting up with some cheap-o cloth-and-foam computer desk chair for years. Now that I'm a bit older, and do some work at home, I needed more comfort and support, this chair works for what I need and it didn't cost me $800. Granted this one isn't as adjustable, and the lumbar support isn't pronounced, it is soooo much better than what I had. The best thing about this chair is the size of the seat, which fully supports my butt and back of my thighs, all the way to the back of my knees. The neck support is nice, too." —Christopher L. Dulawan
Get it from Amazon for $269.50 (available in two colors).
26. A touchless vacuum you can sweep debris right into. No more song and dance with your dustpan trying to sweep up every last speck of dust.
Promising review: "I love this thing!!!! I have three long-haired dogs and it just sucks up all that hair. I almost did not get it because of a review saying that it got clogged up quick. That is not the case. It compacts the hair and doesn't lose suction. I empty it once a week and I sweep almost every day!" —Christy Sanders
Get it from Amazon for $149 (available in seven colors).
27. Some Goo Gone kitchen degreaser sure to come in clutch when you have an "I NEED TO CLEAN EVERYTHINGGGGG" day and are horrified to see what's been hiding on the walls behind your oven.
28. An ~eco-friendly~ oven scrub with a blend of plant- and mineral-derived purifying and disinfecting ingredients including eucalyptus, lemon, and peppermint oils, pumice stone, and baking soda.
Everneat is a Fairfield, Connecticut–based all-natural cleaning shop from Claudia and Angelo Zimmermann. Their oven cleaner comes with a professional-grade metallic scrubber you can use to scrub your appliance before wiping it down with a microfiber cloth.
Promising review: "Like many I moved into a house with a used oven. Keeping the typical grease and cooking messes at bay over the years has been a challenge, especially because of its placement in the kitchen (up against a wall in a corner). I tried vinegar and baking soda, Dawn dish soap, then fume-free Easy-Off, which, although effective, is more of a hassle to apply and remove (and wasteful, since I have to cover the heating elements with aluminum foil). Saw this product online and liked the non-chemical ingredients, and decided based on the reviews that it was worth a try. It's not cheap, but this is the only thing that got almost all the residue off my oven surfaces. Nice smell and didn't leave any scratches or marks. I highly recommend rinsing thoroughly and drying with a microfiber cloth for best results." —Irish Eyes
Get it from Everneat on Etsy on Amazon for $19.99+ (available in three scents).
29. A flat outlet plug that can be placed behind furniture or in other areas where you'd like to eliminate some cord clutter.
Promising review: "Very, very nice. I am a renter so putting a huge hole in the wall to hide my wires was not going to happen. After searching for something that could help with the look of the wires in my living room, I was glad to have come across this socket! I love it. I just installed it last night, I’m extremely happy with the look and the adhesive works really good. I highly recommend it. :)" —Nlizr
Get it from Amazon for $23.95+ (available in seven different lengths/configurations).
30. An easily washable drip catcher if *nothing* grinds your gears quite like a soapy counter puddle after you just spent precious minutes cleaning dishes because you're not part of the 1% (AKA – the dishwasher-owning class).
Hustle Sew Shop is a small shop based in Saint Helens, Oregon run by Jacy Stratton.
Promising review: "LOVE these splash catchers! They save me from having to chase the puddles that form around the base of our faucet before they start creeping over the counter. So reasonably priced, made well with neatly finished edges, and packaged with gift-ready care." —Alina
Get it from Hustle Sew Shop on Etsy for $13.50+ (available in four sizes and six colors).
31. A 5-in-1 cork that aerates, pours, and filters your wine then serves as a leak-proof stopper, which extends the life of your bottle if you don't finish it in one go.
The manufacturer says the BPA-free stopper fits most standard wine bottles.
Promising review: "I wouldn't consider myself a wine connoisseur by any means, but I typically have a bottle or so float through my house each week. This wine corker takes the hassle out of pulling the original cork out, is easy to clean, makes the wine taste better, and hello it's five bucks! It would make a GREAT cheap gift for a wine drinker. At the moment, I only have the one, but I'm planning to grab a few more to keep on-hand." —JasonKim Lebeda
Get it from Amazon for $9.24.
32. An all-natural scouring paste sure to make every surface in your home ✨sparkle.✨ I'm talking sinks, tubs, stove tops, grout, that annoying crevice between the back of the toilet and the wall — you name it!
Humble Suds is a small cleaning brand run by two moms — Holli Schuab and Jennifer Parnell — in Evergreen, Colorado. All of their products are made from powerful, plant-based ingredients and packaged with recyclable materials. They recommend applying a tablespoon of their scouring paste to a cloth and then scrubbing in a circular motion.
My Shopping team colleague Danielle Healy is a fan (she took the photos above!), saying:
"I recently moved into a new apartment, so lately I've been cleaning A LOT. Shortly after moving in, my partner and I went to store something on the top of the kitchen cabinets only to find them caked in a thick layer of grime 🤢. After going at it with regular multipurpose cleaner (with little success) we broke out the scour paste as a last-ditch effort and OH BOY did this miracle product deliver (pics above). If it can handle that grossness, it's going to have no problem with day-to-day messes like soap scum and burnt-on food. Plus, it smells delightful and comes in minimal, low-waste packaging!"
Get it from Humble Suds on Etsy for $15.95+ (available in two sizes).
33. A Wet & Forget weekly cleaner you can spritz on your shower walls and tub after you're done cleaning yourself. Leave it on overnight — no scrubbing necessary — and just wash it off the next time you're in the shower!
Promising review: "I really like the fact that this product is true to its description! I highly recommend you do a thorough and very good job of cleaning before you apply this product or it will not make the product as effective as it should be! I highly recommend this because really who wants to clean their shower every day? This also keeps away mold and mildew how cool is that." —Stephanie Parker
Get it from Amazon for $19.54+ (available in two scents, two sizes, and packs of one, two, and four).
34. A wad preventer to ensure your sheets don't tangle themselves up into a Boy Scout badgeworthy knot *and* not even get clean in the process.
Wad-Free is a small biz from Cyndi Bray. Their products are made in the USA. Just pop the corners of your flat or fitted sheet into the device and you'll never have to deal with tangling and twisting again! Believe it or not (I mean believe it...the reviews are there) the manufacturer even says that your sheets will dry 75% faster and with fewer wrinkles.
Promising review: "I was skeptical when I first heard about these, but I saw good reviews and gave them a try. I immediately regretted not getting more so I could do a full load of just sheets but even having only two was a huge help. These things WORK. I'm buying four more right now." —Juliet S.
35. An auto-shutoff outlet so you don't have to take a handful of photos (from different angles, obvs) to prove to yourself that you *did* indeed unplug your curling iron before leaving the house.
36. A bag of "Johnny Drops" which, for the uninitiated, are like bath bombs for your toilet! Just drop one of the concentrated hydrogen peroxide tablets in, wait five minutes or so, give your toilet bowl a good lil' swipe with your cleaning wand, and you're golden.
Juniper Seed Mercantile is a woman-owned small business from Tiffany Norton. The Littleton, Colorado-based shop specializes in all-natural bath and body products as well as home cleaning solutions.
Get a bag of eight from Juniper Seed Mercantile for $12.
37. A set of sheet-keeper bands if nothing sends you into a red-hot rage quicker than reaching into your linen closet and pulling out every single fitted sheet *except* for the one you're looking for.
Sheet Keeper is a woman-owned small business based in Los Angeles.
Promising review: "Great product. Came quickly and they work great! Such a great idea to keep sheets organized and together while being able to tell what size bedding it is. Will order again for sure!" —devonhansen1

38. A cabinet door organizer with room for cutting boards, plastic wrap, baking sheets, and whatever else plagues your kitchen cabinets.
You can hang the steel rack over a cabinet door via a set of included hooks or you can mount it directly to a door or wall with the included hardware. It can support roughly five standard-sized cutting boards.
Promising review: "This organizer is so useful! I recently moved and ended up with a much smaller kitchen, so I've been doing everything I can to make sure there's a place for everything and no wasted space. Luckily, I have pretty wide cabinets, so this works out perfectly. I have one holding my cutting boards (four standard plastic boards) and another holding my foil, cling wrap, and parchment paper boxes. The organizer is super easy to assemble and it's completely versatile — hang it over the cabinet door or attach it to the wall/cabinet door, which means it's great for renters and owners." —Kerry
Get it from Amazon for $16.97+ (available in packs of one or two).
39. A eucalyptus sheet set that could easily pass as silk. You know that feeling of when you shave your legs, lotion up, and then crawl into bed? That's what these sheets feel like 24/7 even if you haven't bought a razor since pre-quarantine times.
Sijo is a small, woman-founded home brand from Anni Stromfeld and Jacob Xi (friends since middle school!). The brand is all about affordable luxuries from sheets and loungewear to candles and aromatherapy. They've partnered with the Joyful Heart Foundation — a nonprofit that supports women who have been victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and abuse — and donate a percentage of their sales to fund education and advocacy programs.
Promising review: "I love these sheets! They are so soft! I ordered one set and loved them so much I had to get another set. I got rid of all of my other sheets because I knew I would never use anything except my eucalyptus sheets." —Karen B.
Get them from Sijo for $130.50+ (originally $145+; available in sizes twin–California king and in seven colors).
40. A chrome can rack where you can store all 36 of the Campbell's creamy tomato soups you picked up because your grocery store was having a BOGO sale.
Promising review: "This is a terribly useful product because no can good companies have the decency to make their cans the same size with interlocking lids which means you either have to stack your vegetables one high, or play a precarious game of Jenga every time you reach for cream of chicken. Enter this thing. It uses the same footprint as the same amount of cans would, EXCEPT there is none of that precarious stacking so you don't get buried in an avalanche of pantry staples every time you make dinner. Plus, it really cleans up your pantry. Pretty inexpensive solution to a messy problem I had." —Mr.andMrs.Moreno
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
41. A set of six dimmable under-cabinet light strips that'll instantly add ambiance to any space you see fit be it your kitchen, closet, desk, or wardrobe. They're also remote controlled, so you can turn on the wow factor even if you're comfortable on the couch.
