Promising review: "Our home was built in 1984, solid-wood cabinets are still solid but needed some love. We are getting ready to update the countertops and I was trying to decide if I wanted to spend the extra money and just replace the cabinets. Decided to try some love on the old cabinets, found this product and gave it a try. Yes, it was some work, but I am a 'hands-on' kind of girl so spent the better part of a day removing the cabinet hardware, waxing, and buffing. This product does feel greasy but I could see it soaking into our old wood cabinets. Even gave some of the more used ones a second coat. Left it on for the directed 20 minutes and then buffed off with a clean, dry cloth. Our old cabinets look fantastic. So glad I found this, it just saved us thousands on the cost of new cabinets." —K.

Promising review: "I wish I had taken before and after photos! The tub in my daughter's bathroom was terribly scratched on the bottom, presumably by the previous homeowners in an effort to make the bottom of the tub less slippery. However, over time, those scratches turned rusty and looked just terrible. I was ready to have the tub reglazed, but decided to give this product a chance since the cost was minimal. I sprayed the product on all the scratches pretty heavily, let it sit for about 10 minutes, and then rinsed away. I would have let it sit longer, but my daughter needed to use the shower LOL. So, after her shower, I sprayed it again, let it sit overnight, and the bottom of the tub is spotless now! I am so happy, and saved myself $100s by not having to reglaze. I highly recommend this product. Also, while it does have a chemical odor to it, it is not overpowering at all and I sprayed a LOT of product." —Scooby

Promising review: "I just tried these last weekend at an outdoor wedding with an indoor reception. They were amazing! I kept them on all night. First, I walked outside in thick grass, and the wedding photos were taken in a mushy grassy area. I didn't sink even a little bit. It was fantastic. My heels were fabulous. I then decided to leave them on for the rest of the night since they made my heels more stable and comfortable. So glad I tried them. I was showing them off to the other ladies, and everyone loved the look of them." —J. L. Dossey

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

All you have to do is pop this in your drain! It's made of silicone so you can easily wipe away all the gross hair and soap it catches (and who knows what else). And if you *do* need to unclog your drains, a little Drano never hurts. You can also get a SinkShroom for your kitchen and bathroom sinks!
Promising review: "My house was built in the 1960s, so I have metal pipes that have corroded over the years and are prone to hair clogs. I’ve had to call a plumber multiple times over the past two years to remove hair clogs that had been pushed deep underground. Two females with extremely thick hair live in my house, so we shed a lot! It became hard to avoid standing in water up to our ankles during showers. After my last personal effort to unclog two slow-draining tubs, I decided that preventing the clogs should be my new top priority. In an effort to save my older plumbing and my wallet, I purchased a TubShroom for each bathroom. The TubShroom has helped TREMENDOUSLY with drainage issues in both tubs. It catches a ton of hair, soap, and other bath products. It’s so easy to remove the hair and clean the TubShroom. It can be done in seconds and then you are ready to put it back in your drain and enjoy your shower without water pooling around your feet. I would recommend this to anyone with older pipes who is looking for a way to prevent hair clogs and avoid another call to the local plumber." —Tiffany

I've had the Theragun Mini for months and it's become central to my wellness routine. My body responds really positively to the heat. Needless to say, I use this with the Supersoft attachment when I'm sore, depressed, anxious, and when I'm happy. It never fails to make being in my body a more enjoyable experience. Plus, you can get maximum results after about two minutes of usage.
Promising review: "I am pleasantly surprised (one might say shocked) by how well this little device does its job. I’ve been doing a lot of hiking in the past few months, and have unfortunately come to the conclusion that my muscle recovery time isn’t what it used to be. The Theragun Mini has been amazing for post-hike wind-down, and I don’t feel the icky next day soreness nearly as much anymore. I haven’t tried percussive massagers but can say that the intensity and benefits are easily comparable to a regular in-person massage session. It's easy to hold/handle. Battery time is more than acceptable —it takes about an hour to fully charge, which gives about two hours of runtime. It's very quiet for how powerful it is. it’s high-pitched and kind of sounds like an electric toothbrush. It’s also really portable and comes with a soft protective case that I’ve also been storing it in. This is definitely a good introductory device into the world of percussive massagers. It has changed my well-being for the better." —Olga

Promising review: "I never realized how much gunk was on my tongue in the mornings. Pretty disgusting actually. My mouth feels extra clean after using this. Great-quality stainless steel. To sanitize it, I just dip it in a pot of boiling water for a few minutes. The only thing others may have an issue with is storage as it doesn't come with a case or anything. Simple solution, though. I put up a small hook next to my toothpaste and toothbrush and hang it on that." —Alexis T.

Promising review: "I have a rather expensive set of stainless steel cookware, purchased only a year ago. Despite constant care, the set was getting so bad that I was considering replacements! I ordered this as a last chance and I am so glad I did! Yesterday I scoured this pan with Dawn and baking soda for about 10 minutes and it still looked terrible. Two minutes with this cleaner and my pan looks brand new inside and out! I immediately pulled the rest of my pots and pans out of the cabinet and restored them as well! I am so glad that I ordered this! Bar Keepers Friend just saved me a ton of money!" —RCIstl

It'll also help with the pungent scent coming from your machine. I mean, cleaning your dishwasher is far more cost effective than buying a whole new one.
Promising review: "After using this product, I am happy to report that my $5 investment saved me over $500. I was ready to replace my dishwasher due to super-cloudy glasses, residue, and dishes just not getting clean. Then I became aware that the water softener was no longer doing its job so I had the rental company replace it. Dishwasher performance improved somewhat. I decided to do two more loads before deciding to purchase a new one. Then I saw a product test review for Affresh. I was ordering some stuff from Amazon anyway so I added that to my order. When it came, I tossed one of the tablets into the bottom of the full machine per the instructions and ran the regular cycle. I did not expect the results I got! The glassware that I thought was permanently etched and ruined came out like new. Same with cutlery. The difference is unbelievable. I will use this faithfully every month, as recommended. I can even put it on my subscribe and save order so I will get a new pack every six months. I am amazed!" —Sheila

Promising review: "Like others in the reviews of this product, I was both skeptical and on the verge of buying a new washer. I had tried pretty much everything mentioned: vinegar, bleach...had always left the door open when not in use, and had even had the rubber ring replaced a couple of years back. As a last resort, I bought this produce, hoping to save the cost of a new washer and to save the washer itself. I was not disappointed! I ran the three cycles as recommended. It didn't work until the third cycle, at which point I opened the machine and it was actually clean. The black on the rubber ring was gone, the smell was gone. I wiped the sitting water out of the ring as usual, and it was clean and no black came out on the towel. It's been a week, and so far so good! Product totally worth it for us!" —Lulu799

Promising review: "I was tired of stacking my frying pans on top of each other and was looking for something to both organize my pans and give me easy access to them. Before this organizer, I would have to unstack several pans in order to get to the middle pan that I needed. Now I can just reach in and immediately get the frying pan that I need without having to unstack. The quality of this organizer is pretty good." —Linda

Promising review: "I got this because the front door is un-level and very drafty. I didn’t want to spend a lot since we rent it but the number of bugs coming from underneath was annoying.
"The material is very flexible and pliable which is great. A lot of these that I’ve used at big box stores tend to be somewhat rigid and want to fall off the minute you open the door. For my application, the door itself is raised up about 2" from the floor, so I didn’t have to worry about it dragging. However the door is 90 years old so it’s seen a lot of wear and tear but this thing works perfectly. So impressed with how easy it was to apply, you can guide it along as you need to since it’s so flexible. I never thought I’d get excited about a door draft stopper but this is that moment." —rezzim

Promising review: "I had to order this product as I have a roommate who loves to snore. Every night I'd be up late listening to his constant, irritating, and above all obnoxious snoring. When he wasn't snoring, he'd be in the shower singing (badly), or just causing a ruckus in the room. It was driving me crazy and affected my sleep schedule and my sanity. I purchased these in a desperate attempt to sleep better at night and to block him out. And they worked! While not completely blocking out his snoring, it definitely brought it down to a level where it was bearable and I was able to sleep. They also were the perfect remedy to cancel out his singing and his noisy existence while he was in the room. Just reach in the drawer, pull two out, pop them in, and BAM! no more distracting roommate." —Christopher

Promising review: "At first, Phoenix was kinda iffy. She had to sniff around, dig around, and just investigate it from all angles. She eventually urinated in it for the first time sometime during the first night of having it. She was originally nervous and curious and as she is a guard cat (literally, no joke), she would be on high alert and run to investigate every time the thing would self-clean. It seemed to take her about a day or so to feel comfortable defecating in it. During this time and currently, she has not used the restroom elsewhere in the house, only in the litterbox. All I did was place the litterbox in the spot her normal litterbox used to be and showed it to her. I did not need to ease her into the new litter. As for the concern for the smell, I have not noticed any smell off of the litterbox at all. I do not smell urine or poop. When the litterbox cleans itself, it puts the scooped items into a special compartment so we don’t have to see or smell them. It seems to do an excellent job at cleaning all of Phoenix’s excrement. All in all, I am very pleased with this purchase so far." —Alexis Caldwell

Promising Review: "I love it so much that I purchased more as gifts. Nobody likes smelly hands from working in the kitchen. I have a volunteer job that involves working with animals that eat mouse and quail. There is nothing like the smell of mouse on your hand when you're trying to eat lunch. I originally got one of these since it's just steel and isn't something involving harsh chemicals that could harm animals. It has been working very well. Once I had success there, I bought three or four more as gifts for people who cook a lot and often cook with garlic, onions, meats, etc. I highly recommend this product!" —CamilleElise

Promising review: "So in the old days, I rigged up a zipper puller with a paper clip and a string. This was great for the old zippers there the pull had a little hole in it. However, invisible zippers have taken over the fashion world and those pulls are solid. I've found myself getting into all kinds of contortions trying to pull them up so my curiosity was definitely piqued when I saw this little item.
