Promising review: "I love these lights so much! I bought them for my dorm room, perfect length to run across my headboard or desk! The remote has lots of different features, and even allows you to adjust the brightness! The amethyst are a great quality, nice and sturdy. Super great quality for the price. You can’t beat it! The photos truly don’t do the lights justice" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I bought this on a whim because I knew my boyfriend would laugh and appreciate the hell out of it. I honestly don't even know what it is (the console, not the fact that it's a fridge magnet), not really my cup of tea. But my boyfriend plays video games and has a fair share of Cowboy Bebop figurines, so when I saw it I knew he'd get a kick out of it. 11/10 would buy again just for another chance to see his reaction. And honestly it looks great! From a purely non-biased perspective, the magnets transformed a boring white fridge we paid no mind to, to a clever and cute conversation piece that ~also~ serves a function." —Olivia

Each display holds five 4"x6" photos for a total of 10 pictures.
Promising review: "I'm very happy with my purchase. The whole backing is magnetic, so you can rest assured your pictures aren't going anywhere. I get a lot of compliments from guests asking me where I purchased it. It's a practical and classy way to display your precious family photos without it making your fridge look tacky or cluttered. I love that it comes with two sets of photo displays. I was able to gift one to my mom, which she absolutely loved and appreciated! Would absolutely buy more for friends in the future." —Y A

Promising review: "Amazing job at updating my wall oven. I searched for months trying to see what would be an alternative replacement to my dated wall oven (25 years old). The thing is, my old oven has always worked very well, so I couldn't really justify paying $2,000 to replace my working double wall oven only because of cosmetic reasons. Then it dawned on me that maybe if I updated the oven with this metal covering it would look like real stainless steel. So for literally the cost of $10 I updated my oven. The update is virtually unnoticeable unless you tell someone, and what's the best thing of all, it leaves no fingerprints. Best $10 I ever spent." —B. Lenj

Promising review: "I do not have the money for a new vanity right now. Insert DIY project of covering my ugly pink bathroom vanity in marble contact paper. It looks 100% better and it’s super durable. It’s a little tricky to work with at first and then you get the hang of it. I’m buying more for my half bath!
Update: my vanity still looks great a couple months later! I decided to do my table top in my laundry room and it looks great too!
Tips: make sure there is nothing on the surface as bumps will show through with the tiniest of debris. Also, one roll is not enough, always buy more than you think you’ll need!" —Natalie Evans

These are dead ringers for the hardware on my parents' *actual* carriage-style garage doors.
Promising review: "Great custom look for a bland garage door. I bought two sets for my double garage. Love the carriage door look now. My mother-in-law liked it so much she bought two sets as well. Couldn't be easier to install and they stay in place. Only downside is my practical-joking friends and family can rearrange them. Once the fad wore off they quit doing that though." —Daddio314
