From cozy cashmere sweaters to Scrabble magnets to reusable and compostable beeswax wrap: an eclectic mix of some *really awesome* things.
Promising review: "The white is a true bright white without any ivory or yellow. Do not count on this matching your existing grout. You will not be able to just touch up a few areas. Just plan on doing the entire room. As to usage, I was pleasantly surprised by how far these went. I did the entire floor of my large master bathroom plus a little of the shower with one pen. The shower floor has small hex tile with larger grout lines so that took a little over two pens. This was not a quick task but it went faster than I thought it would. I was worried the white would look too bright, but it just makes everything look so much cleaner. Very happy with this product!" —Jenelle

Promising review: "Can't recommend these beeswax wraps enough. The antimicrobial aspect of the beeswax keeps fruits and vegetables super fresh for much longer than plastic bags. They keep bread soft and fresh for much longer than Ziplocs. They are so much better for the environment, and they can be reused for months. We have been using our set for almost two years and they are still as good as new. No waste! Just make sure to wash them with cool water, as warm/hot water will melt the wax." —Publisher

Promising review: "I sent this to my husband who is in the county jail. He loves to cook, and I was looking for something new and different to send him, so when I saw this, I had to order it. One reviewer said they could not send it to their loved one in jail because there is a recipe for hooch in it, but I had no problems. All the guys with my husband think it is great as well. Definitely recommend." —allthatglittersisgold

Promising review: "I love these earrings! They are the perfect size and fit on my earlobes nicely without being too big or gaudy. They are well made and did not cause any problems for my sensitive skin. I frequently get compliments from people who know exactly what they are and people who do not and just think they’re pretty. I love this subtle way to show my appreciation and support for RBG." —eclectickidc

Promising review: "I broke this in hard with a huge batch of roasted vegetables for Thanksgiving. Brussels sprouts, potatoes, leeks, garlic, butternut squash, carrots, and more filling up a whole roasting pan. This was great for mixing, coating and turning the vegetables and incredibly effective and attractive for serving. It's a great length, and very substantial. I am delighted to have this as part of my kitchen collection." —Nicki Heskin

Promising review: "This purchase exceeded my expectations and I'm so pleased!! The leather is good quality — soft and sturdy, the colors are rich, the construction looks very good, the styling makes this more than just a card and money holder, and it holds just enough cards, money (bills), and coins for most women who like an organized wallet that can also serve as a small purse/taxi wallet. And personally, I'm delighted that the details of my new wallet (colors and the gold zipper teeth detail) look quite nice with my new Kate Spade bag." —tilzey

Promising review: "Cheaper version of the La Mer face cream. The tube says 'body' but it can be applied to the face. Wonderful to lock in moisture for the winter but feels overly greasy, which is why you only need a little bit as shown for your whole face. NOTHING helped until I used this product, and I have tried Oil of Olay, Clinique, and argan oil every morning. I'm very acne-prone, but I have had no breakouts so far either." —Sarah B

Promising review: "I was a bit skeptical about the claims but after using these for about two or three months they are definitely worth it. They were easy to fit into my refrigerator bins with minimal cutting and have definitely helped extend the life of fruit and produce. The quality seems very good, so I expect them to last a long time." —John Sapovits

Promising review: "This stuff is great. I have always had to have something on my lips. Apparently my lips were 'addicted' to product. I used vaseline for years, I couldn't do anything without some. If it came off my lips would hurt, I was constantly reapplying. Constantly. So I tried some other, more expensive, balms in the hopes of healing my lips. They all had the same effect. These, though, these actually keep my lips moisturized. I don't get the tight painful feeling when it wears off and it's amazing. As to the flavors, they're pleasant but you can't smell them once they're applied. So unless you plan on sniffing the tubes the flavors are pretty much irrelevant, which is fine by me." —Sweet_T

Promising review: "Finished using it five minutes ago and it’s the best! My husband uses a Stanley thermos daily to take coffee to work. He tries to remember to rinse it out every day, but that doesn’t always happen. I got the package today, filled the thermos with water, dropped a tablet in, and let it sit. I promptly forgot about it for a few hours. Initially, I was disappointed when I dumped the water, as it was barely tinged brown. Then I put fresh water in, covered the top, shook it, and OMG. The crap that came out was disgusting, yet fascinating. I looked in the thermos and saw almost nothing but sparkly silver! There was a little crud left in the top third of the thermos, but it’s a really tall one, so I wasn’t surprised. Got the bottle brush, swished twice, and bam! All clean! No fumes, no smell, no nothing, just clean. I used to struggle cleaning it with baking soda, vinegar, the brush, soap, and elbow grease. Screw that. I will forever use only these tablets! Here’s to better tasting (and way less gross) coffee!" —BranchingOut

Promising review: "Don't get me wrong, my wedding ring was gorgeous before. It did sparkle and still made me smile every day. However, after using this Diamond Dazzle Stik, oh my goodness! After one use my ring is absolutely breathtaking! I knew my ring got dirty now and then, simply from sweating and being outside in the elements. However, I never realized just how much dinge and schmutz marred my beautiful diamond until I cleaned it — it literally took my breath away with its fiery, dazzling brilliance! This thing is an amazing value with mind-blowing, beautiful results!" —liltreeclimber

Promising review: "My dad is a huge grammar nerd and we always give each other a hard time about it, often sending each other photos of grammar mistakes in public places or print. While I can't speak to the quality of the mug over time since it was a gift, it was perfect when I received it. Great size, consistent lettering (no flaking), and seemed as durable as any other mug you would get at a store. Best of all, my dad laughed so hard and thought it was amazing and read it to everyone else out loud." —Cassie

Promising review: "I feel so much better adding this small but secure feature to my apartment door. A few weeks ago I was minding my own business inside my third-level apartment. I had just gotten home from work so I removed my clothes to place them in the laundry. Before I could place the clothes inside I heard a key turning in my LOCKED door! Before I could react my front door flew open and three guys were standing in my doorway. I yelled for them to get out! One of the guys apologized and stated he was from the carpet-cleaning service my apartment uses on a permanent basis. Two of the guys left quickly, however the first guy was still standing there looking at me. I screamed again for him to get the **** out! He apologized again and left. Of course, I called my apartment manager and filed a complaint. Turns out the guys were looking for the empty apartment under mine and were not paying attention to the apt numbers. Still, I felt so shaken by this incident. I live alone and I felt like I needed something besides my stun gun to help me feel secure while inside of my home. I just never thought about something like this happening (which was foolish thinking on my part). My apartment door is heavy but it only has that one lock on it. A friend told me about this handy device and now I've been using it for over two months; I'm sold. It was a bit tricky to get on at first, however, after looking over the instructions carefully and reading a few reviews I figured it out. Today, early this morning, I was getting out of the shower and guess what? A key turned in my lock but the door would not budge. I ran to my peephole and I could see it was the same guy from the carpet service. I told him to back up before I use my weapon and he claimed he just stopped by to apologize again. I'm in the process now of reporting this to the police. I just wanted to leave my personal experience to help whoever could benefit from this lock. Please keep in mind it only works within the inside of your door; you are not able to leave it on if no one is home." —Miss-BookWorm

Promising review: "I bought this for my elderly mom who loves grilled cheese sandwiches. I was skeptical that this bag in the toaster would work but it did! Only thing I would suggest is after you toast the sandwich, let it sit for a few minutes so the cheese melts a little more. I prepared one and gave it to my mom straight away. Bread was toasted on the outside. Cleanup was easy, all in all impressive!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Ths has revolutionized my coffee routine and allows me to make lattes, like they do at Starbucks, at home. I have used it exclusively with plant-based milks (coconut, almond, etc.) and it perfectly froths non-dairy milks. I actually found that plain almond milk froths better than any other plant-based milk, for all you vegans out there. I can't tell you how much money I have saved not having to go to the coffee shop every time I want to have a delicious latte. It makes a beautiful, delicate foam that holds up for the whole cup of coffee. I love that there's still foam even in the last sip. Also, you can use this for the fancy cold foam to have with iced coffee drinks. I love this device so much! I have recommended it to literally everyone I know and plan on purchasing another frother in the near future just so I can keep one at the office to make sure I never have to make coffee without it. I couldn't go back to just coffee and cream after having tried the perfect lattes made by this." —Lindsey Catherine

Promising review: "Fantastic kettle! I didn’t have high hopes for it, but it's cheap so I thought I’d give it a try. Yes, as others have noted, it is quite loud. However, it heats up extremely quickly! It is 1500 Watts, compared to most others that are 1000 to 1200 Watts. In fact, it took only four minutes, on the dot, to boil 1000ml. Oddly, the kettle has to be in a certain position on the base for the lever to stay down but I would still recommend this kettle!" —Caleb Spindler

Promising review: "I have been looking for something like this for years! When I buy jeans I typically have to have them altered just a little. If I find a pair that fits my hips there’s always a big gap and it’s too big for my waist. Regular belts are very uncomfortable to me, they make this big pooch out to the front, and the buckle often makes holes in my shirts. This is perfect! It keeps my pants up making the fit perfect without adding more bulk to the front. I call this 'my girl suspenders!' I am definitely ordering another one and I recommend!" —Dina

Promising review: "They taste quite nice, but they're not really that hot. A little tingle of heat, but not much more than that. You'll feel it more in your throat than your mouth, and it will linger for a bit. I personally like it, but not everyone will." —Jordan Jennings

Promising review: "This is a miracle worker. I have very dry, sensitive skin that is acne-prone. I had very large pores on and around my nose that frequently became clogged. I was desperate to find something that would clear them without drying or irritating my skin. This did it. I use this twice a day, two pumps rubbed in with my fingertips. After only one week, I have no clogged pores and have seen a significant decrease in their size. I know this may sound too good to be true, but this is a very real review. My skin is so smooth and soft now, I can't wait to see how it will improve as time goes on." —Autumn

Promising review: "My toddler LOVES these and the monster ones. They're pricey, but I love them so much it's worth it. The only drawback is the space that it takes up in the freezer while in the popsicle holder, but once they freeze you can just put the pops in without the holder. The heads on the T-rex one and Brontosaurus are easy to break off if you're not careful." —Lea S

Promising review: "This was bigger than what we expected, maybe five to six inches tall, but honestly it isn't a big deal — it has solved the problem! One person can leave the house and the next person that is home knows whether or not the pooch has been fed. The sliders don't move on their own. I've included a photo so you can compare. Maybe I will get some of that removable tape and stick it to the wall, but for now it lays on a little table where we keep her treats, her feeding bowls are below it, so it worked out. Wish I would have bought this years ago!" —Shop Munki

Promising review: "This product saved my skin. I’ve been struggling with acne for YEARS. I have very acne-prone skin. I get a new pimple almost every day and it seemed like there was never a time I didn’t have a pimple on my face. Acne leaves super dark blemishes/scars on my face. I do believe my acne is partly genetic — another reason may be stress from college and not getting enough sleep. I’ve tried all different types of moisturizers and cleansers. Nothing worked. I bought this serum on a whim. Omgggg. Guys! Literally my face stopped flaring within three days. I was PIMPLE-FREE FOR MORE THAN 48 hours (a new record). In the photo, the left side was day one of applying serum. As you can see I had extremely dark blemishes and active pimples. The photo to the right shows my skin exactly two months later. Blemishes have faded DRASTICALLY and I have no active breakouts. This hasn’t happened in years." —Brandon

Promising review: "I took into consideration two specific reviews. The first being the person who intentionally left their warmer on overnight, unattended with the end result of the warmer melting and burning into their counter (duh!). And another who suggested using a silicone beverage cover to retain heat. That being said, as a precaution I placed a stone coaster with a cork bottom under my warmer and also purchased a silicone beverage cover in hopes of detering heat loss through evaporation. Then I conducted an experiment where I filled my coffee mug with room temp coffee, creamer from the fridge, and placed my mug (with cover) on to the burner. Within 45 minutes my coffee was comfortably warm, not scolding but perfectly toasty to cuddle up with and drink with ease. Beats microwaving. I recommend for those who always get to their drinks after they have cooled. And for the price, I bought two. One for the living room and one for my nightstand." —rachelnjackson

Promising review: "I’ve had theses for a couple months. Wife wanted a 'better for the environment' way to make coffee but still wanted the easy K-cup system. I had heard that reusable cups could be a nightmare, I did a little research and these ones got great reviews — so we gave them a try. After using them for a month they are great. Easy to use. No mess. Easy to clean. I either rinse them out good or throw them in the dishwasher after every use. They're great! I was just worried that they would be a mess to use but they are actually easier than actual K-cups. My wife even uses the grounds in her garden." —Chad H.

Promising review: "Excellent product, just as advertised. The smell is amazing — not too strong nor too flowery. I normally have very dry, frizzy hair, and this conditioner helped to combat some of the frizz and dryness. It made my hair softer and smoother. It also did not weigh my hair down as some conditioners do— my hair felt very light. The only con I have is that the bottle is small, and it's a bit expensive." —Amazon Customer

Designed with a durable soft shell and a fleece lining, this jacket has three carbon-fiber heating elements to generate heat across your left and right chest and mid-back. It comes with three adjustable heat settings (high, medium, and low) that you adjust with just a push of a button. The battery lasts for up to 10 hours and charges using a USB port. It's machine-washable AND has a one-year warranty. Plus it has a detachable hood and is water- and wind-resistant.
Promising review: "I love this jacket. I’m 5’3, 130 lbs, and a small fits great. I like the pockets, as they’re big enough to put my hands in. Detachable hood is super convenient. The heating element works amazing. I’ve found out when it’s on high it really does get quite warm so I typically have it on medium. This jacket isn’t bulky at all yet completely windproof, which I tested in downtown Chicago right next to Lake Michigan. I don’t think the battery is too heavy at all. It actually doesn’t bother me one bit. So very happy I purchased this." —JH
