Promising review: "Not just a food/high chair mat! My mom once said she used to put a tarp under my sister and me when we were eating in the high chair and I thought she was weird until I had my own kids. This is a great idea!!!! It's good for every meal or just the messy ones. It’s plenty big, but not excessive. What I like the best is the grip; it has the sticky grips, like a bathroom rug or grippy slippers. It’s not super thick so it can be washed with other stuff and not take up too much room in the washer. It is made of good material that keeps your floors/surfaces clean and allows you to do a quick wipe off and use again without fully washing. But my favorite part of what I realized is this will be great for arts and crafts activities as well as picnics. Use it to cover your table so the markers or paints don’t get all over or use it for a play mat at the park. It’s way easier to wash than a blanket or picnic mat. Totally worth it!!!" —Kylee

Promising review: "This stuff is amazing! I used it in my dishwasher. Had standing water on the bottom, dropped one tablet in the water. Put it on light wash cycle and at the end of the cycle, the water was gone! It thoroughly cleans and I have not had any other problems. I now use it regularly. I recommend this highly to keep your dishwasher clean and eliminate clogs from buildup. It was recommended to me by my super and after my positive experience I am happy to cosign his recommendation." —cheapchicshopper

Because it doesn't rely on adhesive paper, you only have to buy it once and can reuse it — cleaning the hair off the brush when it gets clogged, of course!
Promising reviews: "Finally a lint roller that really works. Now I have an obsessed husband picking up German shepherd hair off the couch. Worth the price paid. It will pay for itself. No more sticky tape rollers!" —Blanca LInda Hatter

These liners are 100% BPA and PFOA free. They are sized for a standard oven but are easy to cut to size for non-standard oven models.
Promising review: "These liners were recommended by a friend and I was happy to find them on Amazon. The material is heavy-duty and thick. They are easy to wipe and dishwasher-safe as well. The design is great to catch any overspills or pieces of food that may drop on the oven bottom. They lay nicely on the bottom of my standard size oven. These are something definitely needed to make cooking and baking easier. The price for a three-pack is well worth what is received. Nice, clear instructions were enclosed. Great company. Definitely recommend!" —mesh

Promising review: "I love this so much. It feels a lot like hotel slippers but less flimsy because of the mop part. You will not feel like you’re wearing a mop when wearing these. I have hardwood floors so I vacuum a lot and rarely mop. These work so well in getting the dirt off the floor just by walking around doing your daily thing. I just throw the whole thing in the wash when it gets dirty!" —passionfrootgreentea

Promising review: "I didn't think much of the product when it was delivered. It looks great but I thought it can't work. Wow, I was wrong. I have no more drips in the car cup holders. This little coaster absorbs all the moisture and dries quickly. I will have to order for the second car." —Gold55

Promising review: "I love these 'stamps'. They keep your toilet clean and make the entire bathroom smell fantastic, clean, and deodorized at all times. They are very easy to use, don't over-complicate the instructions. I did, thinking there had to be more to it than that. You just stick it on the inside of the toilet and it will stay in place and clean the toilet each time it is flushed. I love these!" —J. D. Robinson

Promising review: "It has been a dilemma for me for many years to find a way to keep hair from going into the tub drain. I've even tried an upside-down plastic container. Well, problem solved. Where have you been all my life? Gosh, I looked in stores and have never seen this product before. I searched Google years ago and didn't find anything either. Sure it doesn't trap 100% of the hair, because the silicone is soft and there is a very fine gap that one or two strain of the hair falls through, but heck, I'll take that." —Lucy

Promising review: "My two cats always had a habit of playing with their water bowls and spilling water everywhere. I hated cleaning it up constantly. I was looking for a solution when I came across the Neater Feeder and thought it was a great idea. It is small but it's the perfect size for both my cats. Not only did this product look super nice when I set it up it actually worked!! All of the water got trapped on the bottom and the food was trapped on the top as well. Made clean up so much easier. I am so happy with this product and highly recommend." —Kelli Palen

Venalli Builds is an Overland Park, Kansas, Etsy shop with a tight assortment of clever tools to solve your random problems.

Promising review: "I wish I had known about this product a long time ago. Imagine never getting down on your hands and knees again to scrub the back of the bottom shelf.

It holds five toothbrushes and the two toothpaste dispensers use vacuum tech to get every last drop out of the tube.
Promising review: "You need one! I love this! So easy to install and holds nice and tight to the wall. The toothbrushes sit nicely in the holder and are easy for my kids to grab. The two gargle cups are nice but we added little Dixie cups to ours instead. The toothpaste function works really well and isn’t messy for our kids. I highly recommend this!" —Sarah C.

Tidy-Cup is a woman-owned and family-owned small business founded by Julie Reinhold, who was tired of economy-sized detergent containers dripping all over her laundry room. Her ingenious little drip catchers are made in the USA and can easily be cleaned by rinsing with warm water.
Promising review: "I’m so happy to have this! The lid for the fabric softener is always messy, which gets anything you set it on messy. This just hangs underneath the spout and catches all the mess! You just slide it on and it does it’s job! No more mess, except on the holder! Sometimes it kinda slips forward but never falls off. I just slide it back again. I highly recommend it!" —Cwcouple

Promising review: "I am one of the messiest cooks in the world. When I get done, I usually have scraps around my feet where I have knocked bits of veggies off the counter. I've looked for a long time for something to take care of the problem, but everything seemed like overkill. This container is perfect. It's just the right size. I attach it in front of my belly, and all the stuff that usually hits the floor goes in the container. Plus, I can wipe the counter into it, empty it in the trash, and pop it in the dishwasher." —Patricia Logos

It also comes with a microfiber cleaning cloth!
Promising review: "We got this product because, while stainless steel appliances look so nice when you first get them, as soon as you start using them you get fingerprints galore. All of the 'home remedy' tricks we tried were annoying, or so labor-intensive as to be overly frustrating, so this product has been wonderful. It takes only a few minutes to clean all the appliances and make them look brand new again — great for when company comes over and you want to pretend like you always live in a magazine spread for home rather than the comfortable way you normally do :-)" —Anton Stocker

It looks just like the picture and is good quality. It came with two door hooks, and it also has a zipper at the bottom to easily load the clothes in the washing machine! I would recommend!" —Taryn Weingardt

Green City Living is a small biz based in Denver that specializes in eco-friendly home goods. They donate 2.5% of sales to Climate Emergency Fund, an organization that supports climate activists.
Promising review: "My husband calls the Bacon Sponge my Baconator! Since the lockdown and the scarcity of paper goods, I've reevaluated my carbon footprint. Where I used to go through several paper towels as I blotted the grease off of food, I needed nothing more than the bacon sponge laid across my cutting board to do the trick this time. It sopped up the bacon grease like a charm. After a few minutes soaking in Dawn dish detergent, I threw it into the wash with my towels. Came out lovely — fresh and ready for another round. I do plan on trying it with other foods like chicken. A top-notch product!" —dvitola

Promising review: "We have black dishes that are shiny and we live in Florida where the water is so hard you can practically sit on it. Anyway, we struggle with water spots. Our dishes were looking absolutely disgusting. I found that Bar Keepers Friend would take the hard water stains and marks off the dishes but then I was having to hand wash them. Ain't nobody got time for that! I am a busy person. I have a dishwasher for a reason. So I decided to give this stuff a go. Literally, the first time we used it every dish, bowl, and glass came out perfectly! We ran out of this stuff and once again the spots came back. So I ordered it again and now we have shiny dishes that not only are clean but actually look clean. And I once again have time to watch cats being startled by cucumbers on YouTube. I told you I'm a busy person." —Trishymania
