1. A laundry cart with three removable bag compartments so you can sort your laundry from the moment you throw it in the hamper *and* hang up delicates to dry. Genius!
2. A Wet and Forget shower cleaner for those who hate scrubbing their tub (which I'm assuming is everyone). Just spray this bleach-free formula once a week and rinse away the dirt and grime the next day. Easy peasy!
3. A cordless Shark vacuum mop for the best of both worlds — it sucks up dry debris like a vacuum, but also sprays sticky messes like a mop, and all with a single disposable pad.
4. A mildew-resistant grippy shower mat to make stepping into and out of the tub easier and safer.
5. An Amazon 4K Fire TV Stick that will instantly turn any old TV into a smart TV, and thus make the task of streaming your favorite media apps (in high-def, no less) so much simpler.
6. A wireless garage door keypad since punching in a four-digit code is a whole lot easier than trying to find the secret hidden key when you get locked out, especially if you hid it a little *too* well. 😅
7. An automatic pet feeder so you can control when and how much food gets dispensed, all from an app on your phone. Plus, if you can't be there in person for mealtime, you can record cute messages that will play from the feeder!
8. A container of Drano for when the drain ain't draining, and you have zero desire to call a plumber and/or pull out the hair yourself. Just pour this cleaner down the drain, let it sit for a few minutes, and then rinse...and just like that, problemo solved-o!
9. Or, a plastic drain snake if you'd rather skip the chemicals but still need an easy DIY fix to unclog the drain. This literal $3 tool ~weasels~ its way down the drain and effortlessly pulls out the hair. You'll be simultaneously amazed and disgusted.
10. A dual-band Wi-Fi extender to make sure you get a strong signal in every little nook and cranny of your house or apartment. Nothing is more annoying than having to relocate in the middle of an important video call. 🙄
11. A portable plug-in LED work light since it's super duper bright and will thus help you actually see what you're doing as you tackle tasks in and around the house.
12. An LG stacked washer and dryer designed to save space in the home and maximize the task of doing laundry. Although it's a slim single unit, it's got an ultra-large capacity and AI technology to auto-select the best and most efficient wash and dry settings.
13. A metal door organizer so you can finally open the pantry without immediately getting stressed by the mess...and then waste 10 minutes looking for that one darn spice you need.
14. A smartplug because it will let you use voice commands to turn on (or off) whatever's plugged into the outlet — lights, devices, appliances, etc. And if you don't have an Alexa-enabled device, you can just use the Alexa app!
15. A wooden lap tray that's super duper practical for serving breakfast in bed or working on the couch. WFH peeps, this will make your life easier *and* better.
16. A portable, handheld fabric steamer for a much simpler alternative to pulling out the iron. This will leave your clothes (and curtains) just as crisp and wrinkle-free, and it can easily be packed in a suitcase when you travel too!
17. A smart thermostat to keep your home at the exact right temperature. With this, you can use voice commands or an app to adjust the temperature, AND it will even automatically adjust the heating or cooling if you accidentally leave a window or door open when you leave. It truly does not get any easier than this, folks.
18. A12-pack of Command Strips if you don't want to bust out the drill every time you need to hang something (and let's be real, that's always such a hassle). These genius strips are remarkably strong and won't leave marks on the walls, either.
19. A toilet stool about to become your new bathroom BFF. Just like the popular Squatty Potty, this will help adjust your body into the proper position, making the act of elimination go much smoother. As an added bonus, this one has a built-in storage container for wipes, too!
20. A Google Nest Mini because this cute and compact speaker can also be used to control your home with simple voice commands, like, "Hey Google: turn up the heat, dim the lights, and turn on the TV."
21. A single-serve coffee maker for a quick 'n' easy way to make your favorite brew each morning — just fill it with your grounds, add water, press the button, and voilà! Fresh coffee!
22. A hanging shoe organizer so you can finally organize all those sneakers and boots taking over your closet and make it easy to find the pair you want! Just slip this over your closet bar, and tuck away up to 10 pairs of shoes.
23. A self-emptying robot vacuum that'll basically take care of your most time-consuming chore for you. Once you've set the cleaning schedule, this will zoom around and clean all your floors, hardwood, and carpet, then return to base, empty itself, and begin to recharge. Oh, and fear not pet owners — this model's specifically designed to take on pet hair with strong suction and a self-cleaning brush roll.
24. A pack of Miracle-Gro plant food spikes if you need some extra help in the plant nurturing department. Just placing a single spike in your plant will feed it for up to two months, and you won't really have to do a thing (besides water it, of course).
25. A folding step stool because it's high time you stop having to stand on your tiptoes (maybe even jump?) and/or climb the counters just to reach those high shelves. As someone who is not an overly tall person, I can indeed confirm that this makes life 1,000X easier.
