    Just 38 No-Brainer Purchases To Make If You Wanna Feel Real Adult

    Including a quick and inexpensive contact paper kit that'll take your fridge from white and drab to stainless steel (basically) and shiny.

    1. 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

    2. 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 38,000 5-star reviews from pleased poopers.

    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

    3. A posture corrector if three 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.

    4. 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. 

    Silver metal trash can with black trim and open lid
    Split garbage and recycling bins inside open trash can

    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.

    5. 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

    6. A pack of itty-bitty crevice-cleaning brushes that can get into nasty nooks like the spaces under your toilet seat, in your window grooves, and between your air conditioner grates. When you're done, just toss it — no need to clean it!

    Promising review: "I purchased this product for cleaning the screws and tight places on the toilet. I have found multiple uses for them i.e. cleaning between the rim of skillet or pot and where the handle is attached. Great for cleaning car vents, behind faucets, and under faucet handles. The list goes on and on. Will purchase again. I am using these as stocking stuffers for the adults in my family." —Kat

    7. 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.

    8. 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. Hi, I’m obsessed. I can’t stop. I should send this back. I’ve started asking if my neighbors need anything depilled. I’m going to buy one of these for everyone in my life. Everyone needs to own this. Take it away from me." —Sydney Jensen

    Get it from Amazon for $13.41+ (available in six colors and rechargeable or battery operated). 

    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.

    A reviewer's photo of the blue device which has a simple on/off button
    A reviewer's photo of the blue Waterpik which has a dial and three buttons

    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. By the way this is my first review ever on Amazon after ordering numerous of things. So I had 4-mm and 5-mm periodontal pockets from not flossing and also experienced some bone loss, I also had to get a very uncomfortable deep gum pocket cleaning. 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! Also this flosser can be somewhat loud, but definitely gets the job done (but the dentist still recommends string flossing). Bought this with my own money and this is an honest testimonial/review. I will be back with an update on what mm my gum pockets will be!" —Ebony

    10. 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!

    Amazon

    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).

    11. A four-pack of space-saving clothes organizers because you've maxed out your closet's storage potential but you aren't anywhere near done curating your wardrobe.

    Promising review: "I'm so impressed by these little hangers! I figured I'd cut down on my closet clutter by hanging basic tops from these instead of side by side, but I did not expect four Wonder Hangers to almost double my closet space. These are amazing for work shirts, dress clothes, and stuff you don't necessarily wear every day but want to hang up to avoid wrinkles. They are very sturdy, I filled one with just cardigans and blazers and it held up just fine. They do get pretty bulky in terms of width, but you're still using far less space than you would if all of the clothing was hanging directly on the closet rod. I'll definitely be buying more!" —Danielle

    Get a four-pack from Amazon for $19.99.

    12. 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. (I’ve given boxes to each of my children as they headed off to college.) 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 $11.53 (also available in packs of two and four boxes).

    13. 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.

    Wayfair

    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 $60.99 (originally $102.99).

    15. 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. I even paid to have a professional massage done because seating was impossibly painful and I work either driving around all day or in my home office. 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. The one issue is, you’ll be pretty high up if you plan on using it in the car, but not a deal breaker compared to my coccyx not killing me and having shooting pain up my lag and back. BUY IT! The cover is also removable and washable." —Mrs. J

    16. 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.

    A reviewer's video of them using the cleaner with the caption

    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.

    17. 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). 

    18. An ergonomic desk chair because turns out, working from bed — spine curved like a delectable lil' Pringle — wasn't your best idea.

    same reviewer's chair from the side

    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. It might be difficult for some to put together, as it can a bit heavy for one person, but the weight also contributes to the 'well-made' feeling once put together. 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, but I could see some being irritated with the limited positioning... It can be removed." —Christopher L. Dulawan

    Get it from Amazon for $269.50 (available in two colors). 

    19. 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 $111.99+ (available in six colors).

    20. 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.

    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 for $19.99+ (available in three scents). 

    22. 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

    23. 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

    24. 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).

    The robotic vacuum/mop is powered by a lithium ion battery that can run for up to 130 minutes. It's suitable for use on wood, tile, linoleum, and other sealed hard floors.

    Promising review: "I love this, it works so well! Super easy to use and figure out the different attachments. We have a dog who is constantly throwing grass and soil from her indoor potty all over the rug and we are also doing some home improvement projects so we have sawdust on the floor as well and this vacuum picks it all up super easily. I love that it’s so easy to change the wet and dry attachments and this thing has a surprisingly long battery life even on high power. I run this almost every day and I would say it’s well worth the price. My dog was a little scared of it at first but she has gotten used to it. Works great on our hardwood floors as well as on the rug." —Julia V.

    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

    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!"

    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!

    Promising review: "I was skeptical when I first heard about these, but I saw good reviews and gave them a try.

    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

    33. A set of six fridge organizers so you'll know exactly where you put your sour cream instead of having to take every. single. item. out and watch as your fajitas lose steam.

    What's included: Five drawers and a dedicated 14-slot egg holder.

    Promising review: "I love these things so much. I just got my first apartment with my boyfriend and it looked so messy in our little fridge and now it looks really appealing and everything is easy to get to. The quality of them is so good, I’m honestly impressed. They’re very sturdy and the egg holder is so cute and holds 14 eggs!" —Faith Sperry

    34. 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

    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.

    I've recently forayed into being a Sheet Snob™ and I have to say these are some of my absolute favorite. They are SO freaking soft, cool to the touch, and they don't pop off the corners of my bed even though I have a pretty thick mattress topper and — perhaps more pertinent — a BF who seemingly practices Tae Kwon Do in his sleep. I have the set in forest green and have to say the color is particularly *rich* looking, too.

    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 $123.25+ (originally $145+; available in sizes twin–California king and in seven colors).

    35. 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.

    36. 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.

    Each kit comes with six pre-cut LED light strips (9.8 feet in total) and adhesive strips for mounting. The 17-key remote can control basic functions like turning the lights on/off, setting a timer, dimming the lights, etc. Plus, it works at distances up to 60 feet. 

    Promising review: "Awesome product!! I love the ease of installation and the extra included pieces for a good fit. Perfect for adding some much-needed light to my dark kitchen. Dimmable and comes with a remote! There's no downside!" —Breezy Lady

    37. A Yes Plz Coffee subscription to ensure you get new beans delivered straight to your door every week (or every other week, or once a month — you get it). Something that's particularly important if grocery store runs are the bane of your existence.

    Yes Plz Coffee

    Beans for the single-origin releases and blends are sourced from around the world before being roasted in Los Angeles. And you can trust the guys behind Yes Plz — Tony (Tonx) Konecny and Sumi Ali — as the coffee-obsessed duo worked as baristas, head roasters, and "nomadic coffee consulters" at beloved joints like Intelligentsia, Blue Bottle, and Victrola Coffee before diving into their own direct-to-consumer roasting company.

    Get it from Yes Plz Coffee for $17+ (available in two sizes and your choice of one to four shipments a month).

    38. And a tube of peel-and-stick contact paper that — when applied with a lil' finesse — can totally pass as stainless steel. White refrigerator? We don't know her.

    Promising review: "This stainless-steel wrap worked out great! Our fridge now matches the rest of our appliances. I like how it's thicker than normal contact paper. It made it much easier to install." —rach
