1. A reviewer-beloved veggie chopper can make onion tears and food prep mess a thing of the past! This way you won't waste so much time energy on *evenly* spiralizing or chopping — or even time spent cleaning up the bits and pieces that went flying when you got a little too aggressive.
Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action.
Promising review: "Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $24.98.
2. A powerful dishwashing spray to spray down that casserole dish caked with enchilada sauce, let it sit, and you simply wipe and rinse away that saucy mess in a few minutes. No more chipping off burnt-on sauce on a casserole dish two days later.
I live in an apartment without a dishwasher, and I honestly use that as an excuse to order takeout food instead of cooking. But, as soon as I got my hands on a bottle of this stuff (regular Dawn is my go-to dish soap, BTW), I put it to use on both a saucepan I used to make homemade enchilada sauce *and* the casserole dish I baked those enchiladas, which had a ton of caked-on food. It really does work like I say it does! Like, scary well.

3. A "LidPocket" that'll help you finally have a spot to safely store your slow cooker lid while you're checking on your recipe or serving up dinner. Cheers to less mess on your counters!
Check out a TikTok of the LidPocket in action.
LidPocket is a small business specializing in kitchen accessories.
Promising review: "One of those Instagram items I saw from one of the influencers I follow, and it works exactly how it was shown! So simple but a great addition to any slow cooker — this should be a staple part for all slow cooker. Hopefully this will be included in future products. Would highly recommend." —Annette Voss
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
4. A crab spoon rest to lend you a claw when you don't wanna keep your spoon in your stew as it cooks, but you also don't want to rest it on your counter where you'll have to clean up afterward. We love a useful, fun kitchen tool!
5. Some slow cooker liners can make cleanup a total cinch. Sometimes the worst part of using a slow cooker is washing up after.
I use these and they're THE BEST.
Get a box of six liners from Amazon for $3.18.
6. A lid organizer with adjustable dividers that may look simple but will work some magic in your kitchen drawers because you love food storage options nearly as much as you love snacking.
Promising review: "This product does exactly what it's supposed to and does it well. In under 15 minutes I took my nightmare lid drawer and turned it into a functional, convenient storage space. The dividers were simple to install and provided flexibility. Slowly but surely I am getting my tiny, chaotic kitchen under control, and this got me a huge leap closer." —S. Hawthorn
Get it from Amazon for $13.49+ (available in three sizes and multipacks).
7. A set of silicone air fryer liners that'll even more convince you to go ahead and use that special little countertop appliance to create something that feels and *tastes* extra special. Anyone who's tried to hand-wash the basket of an air fryer will get why these are a great idea. Just pop 'em in the dishwasher!
Promising review: "I bought these because I was tired of cleaning the whole air fryer container. These were bought on a whim for both mine and my boyfriend's parents, who each have an air fryer. They work great, keeping all greases and crumbs inside, and make it easier to clean. The only bad thing (and this may just be me) is the ridges/ripples on the bottom of the inside of the liner. When you try to wash it in the sink, don’t put the stream of water right on those unless you want to take a small bath. Other than that, these are fantastic. My boyfriend also says that it seems to make everything crispier, and we love that." —Jordan Hixson
Get a set of three from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in four color combinations).
8. A bag of FryAway cooking oil solidifier to transform used oil into a solid that's super easy to throw in the trash. Let's not pour that stuff down the drain!
FryAway is a US-based small business specializing in planet-friendly cooking waste solutions.
Promising review: "I will always keep this stocked in my house! My husband sent me a TikTok, I know I know, and I thought it couldn't hurt to try it out. I loved after the first night! I could easily remove the hardened oil and throw it out." —Roberta
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
9. A set of squeezable instant pancakes. Just add water to the bottle and then squirt out the batter onto the pan or waffle maker. Picture this: Future You having to wash far fewer dishes and way less time on cleanup next time your kids decide to "help" cook.
Happy Grub is a family-owned, US-based small business specializing in products to bring families together in the kitchen.

Get a set of two from Amazon for $22.99 (available in five flavor combinations and in four-packs).
10. A dishwasher magnet so everyone in the house is on the same page about whether it's OK to use a spoon for your world-famous stew from the dishwasher that you *thought* was clean.
My colleague Sally Elshorafa owns and loves this. Here's why:
“'Pregnancy brain' — the brain fog that some people say they experience during pregnancy and sometimes after birth — is something I absolutely experienced for the majority of my pregnancy. I simply would forget things, like my keys or whether the dishwasher had run. This dishwasher magnet really put in the work. We run our dishwasher once a day and once at night, and I started to forget if the dishes in it were clean or not, especially if someone else had loaded them in and ran it. This magnet solved that problem! Plus, its silver frame matched so well with the stainless-steel dishwasher that we have, that it actually looks like it's part of the appliance."
Promising review: "I got this because my mother has dementia and she kept putting away dirty dishes 🤦🏽♀️. And believe it or not, she has actually been using it and it definitely has been working! So I highly suggest buying this for parents or someone you know who has a similar problem!" —Raquel
Get it from Amazon for $6.92 (also available in black).
Also check out a version that's completely silver without the red or green for $19.95.
11. A magnetic stove shelf that's the perfect amount of room to keep your most-used spices so you don't have to go digging in your cabinet while the oil is literally poppin' on your stove top.
StoveShelf is a small business, and these shelves are built to last a lifetime.
Promising review: "This is an excellent buy. The shelf helped me declutter my cabinet, and it is an awesome storage space for my more often used spices. It is sturdy, easily installed, and attractive. I recommend this shelf." —Pamella R.
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in six types and three sizes).
12. Fridge bin liners that'll absorb extra moisture in an effort to keep your produce fresher for longer. PLUS, they'll catch the brunt of messy spills and will be so much easier to clean than taking a drawer out of the fridge and awkwardly scrubbing it down in your sink. I've done that before and it's not great!
Promising review: "Easy to cut to fit any door compartment, drawer or shelf. Nice thickness for absorption of any spills or drips. Nothing slides around when you open/close the door. Makes it easier to keep the fridge clean. Great value for the money." —Christine
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $7.99.
13. A "Bacon Bin" everyone can pour leftover bacon grease into for later use in whipping up some delicious food. What a cute way to prevent sink plumbing problems!
Check out a TikTok of the bacon bin in action.
Talisman Designs is a small business that specializes in at-home cooking and entertaining products.
Promising review: "This little piggy works perfectly for storing or discarding the grease created from cooking. You can either store the grease/ lard in the container for future use, or as I do, pop the pig in the freezer for a bit, then dispose of the solidified grease. Would buy again." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $15.99.
14. A faucet splash catcher to absorb that excess water that makes its way around your sink, no matter how careful you are while washing dishes. Your roomie on the other hand? Eh.

No more going in on your own dirty dishes 30 min after your roomie and feeling like you can't clean as well because your dishwashing tools are still soaking wet.
Momo Lifestyle is a small business that specializes in family-friendly homewares.
Promising review: "We got this for the bathroom that the kids us. Anybody with little kids will know that they make a constant mess. We had water all over the counter, mainly around the soap dispenser, and it was causing problems. This has helped a great deal. There is less water on the counter and I even like to put water on it sometimes just to watch it evaporate within about 60-90 seconds. It was totally worth the money." —David P.
Get it from Amazon for $29.99.
16. Some dishwasher-cleaning tablets will get rid of residue that ends up creating odor and buildup on your dishes. You were lucky to score an apartment with a dishwasher but if it's not super effective, what's the use?! These are honestly so cheap that you'll wanna *add to cart* rather than texting your super to come by for a look.
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
Get them from Amazon for $8.99.
17. A pack of reusable produce-saving bags can finally be a solution to keep your fruits, veggies, and cut flowers fresh for much longer — which means you'll actually get to enjoy them before they go bad AND avoid fruit flies buzzing around your cookspace.
Promising reviews: "We decided to do a little test. One banana in a bag and one out, same location in the kitchen. This was after nine days you can see that’s there’s a distinct difference in the bananas. Amazing product!" —Trio Mum
"Purchased for my 85-year-old Mom. She complained about throwing out produce because she didn’t use it quickly enough. Her friend at senior living uses these bags and swears by them, said lettuce lasts for a couple of weeks and bananas for up to three weeks. Think they will save her money." —melcat
Get a 20-pack from Amazon for $11.99.
18. An expandable under-sink kit that'll fit around awkward pipes in the kitchen while giving some sturdy ground to bottles of cleaner. No more cabinet avalanches!
Promising review: "Great product for a great price. Very sturdy, but lightweight and small — under my bathroom sink is *very* small, and the metal frame is thin enough that it doesn't take up much space, and of course it allows me to utilize the empty vertical space instead of shoving things all the way to the back wall. I might rearrange the shelves, but it's just held with screws on each end so that's easy enough to do-comes with two supports for two shelves, but you can choose from four heights/positions. 👍🏻 Might need to order a second for under the kitchen sink..." —Jennifer Mowry
Get it from Amazon for $22.87 (available in three finishes).
19. An adjustable multi-level spice shelf will let you see what you actually have, all within the same footprint in a WAY more efficient matter. No more buying a jar of garlic powder at the store after your roommate swore you were out.
Promising review: "I finally got tired of searching for the right spices in my cupboard and began searching for a solution. My spices are in a 16"-wide upper cabinet next to my stove. I love a particular brand of spice and will buy containers and refill bags to refill the bottle. My cabinet was overflowing. With this I was able to fit all my spices on the racks along with things in the middle and on the bottom. I relocated the bags that are not used but to fill the containers when empty to the shelf above so the majority of my bottles are visible! It was easy to put together and adjust the size. I love the finished organization!" —Lisa
Get it from Amazon for $27.99.
20. A Frywall can fit around your pan and contain popping oil or spillover while you work on the house special. Nothing ruins an edible masterpiece like hot grease landing on your hand. Plus, the stovetop has been splatter-central as of late.
BTW, it's BPA-free, FDA-compliant, heat-resistant up to 450 degrees F, and dishwasher-safe.
Promising review: "I was frying chicken with lard (yes, I use lard! My chicken is NOT health food.) and I put too much in the frying pan. A few minutes after putting the chicken in, the lard began to bubble up and if I hadn't had the Frywall in place, it would have spilled all over my stove. The Frywall creates a seal around my frying pan, stopping spillovers. Splatters don't escape, it's easy to work around it (turning my chicken over), and when I'm done, I just throw it in the dishwasher. If you do any frying at all, you want the Frywall. Helpful" —Carl G Brown
Get it from Amazon for $21.95 (available in three colors).
21. Stove counter gap covers to keep pesky crumbs within sight instead of down between your cabinets and appliances. Woof.
Promising review: "This product serves its purpose, keeping spills and crumbs from settling in between my new cabinets and stovetop. Only issue I had is my clearance between the two is barely enough space to seat the lip underneath to keep product in place. In front I have enough clearance, but about midway stove and back I have no clearance. Ended up having to cut the lip off underneath just to get it to lay flat. That’s not the products fault, it was the countertop installers that made it a little too tight. Easy to cut these to length, and they look nice next to the stovetop." —Flwrchd
Get them from Amazon for $8.92.
22. And stove burner covers that'll do the same for you up top. And you can even run them through the dishwasher!
Promising review: "I've used these for several months and love them even more! Stainless steel stoves show every little spatter, but they disappear on these burner covers. The covers are very easy to wipe off. They're also durable; I only have had to replace one after spilling wax on it. Highly recommended." —Mary R.
Get an 8-pack from Amazon for $13.99.
23. Non-stick oven liners can clean up spills without *actually* having to clean your oven.
Anything that prevents your smoke detector from *rightfully* going off is a gift from heaven. It's really starting to annoy your dog.
Promising review: "I have a non–self cleaning oven for the first time in decades. After having an apple pie spill over and spending more than an hour cleaning it up, I purchased these oven liners. What a time saver. The are easy to cut so they fit perfectly. Because I have a visible heating element, the liner goes right on the oven floor, under the heating element." —Kimberly Barnes-O'Connor
24. A super entertaining rolling egg dispenser will help you save some space in the fridge and — thanks to its genius design — *safely* puts a new egg forward within your reach after you take one out.
Check out a TikTok of the egg storage roller in action.
YouCopia is a woman-owned small business that specializes in home storage solutions.
Promising review: "Here it is! The best egg container on Amazon! How can I say that? Easy! Engineering! The slight tilt angle on the bottom of the container that the egg drawer sits on forces eggs to lightly roll forward, keeping all your eggs in the front, and never in the back, where you don't need them. It's super easy to use, so easy to clean, comes apart and can hold a full can organizer on top without issue, so no issues with sturdiness. It can easily hold 14 large size eggs. Easily one of my favorite purchases." —Karingen
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
25. A stackable can rack to help your pantry look like a grocery store of staples and prevent any painful (and messy) can avalanches.
Made from heavy-gauge steel and can store up to 36 cans of various sizes.
Promising review: "These units were easy to assemble. They felt sturdy. I love that they are made of metal and not cheap plastic. I'm considering buying two more, and going side by side and stocking up on can goods!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $22.97.
26. A plastic bag dispenser so you can easily grab a sandwich bag with one hand while your other hand is, well, holding a sandwich! No more of these storage solutions slipping and sliding out of your reach.
Check out a TikTok of the plastic bag dispenser in action. Psst — these come with optional sticker labels so you know which size bag you're grabbing!
YouCopia is a woman-owned small business that specializes in home storage solutions.
Promising review: "I like it very much. Not so large. Lightweight. Would look nice on top of the counter. What I like is that you do not have to wrangle the box into the slots. Simply pick up the roll of bags from their packaging and put them in the designated slot." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in three-, four-, or five-slot models).
27. A set of Command spray bottle hangers that'll adhere wherever it's most convenient for your space so you can grab it and get to work on that spill or mess as soon as it happens.

Promising review: "Love these! They have helped organize all my products underneath my kitchen sink. The Command hooks are strong and nothing has budged even with the weight of the spray bottles! Highly recommend." —Talayfor87
Get a set of two from Amazon for $9.61.
28. A cereal dispenser because you sorta miss the similar cereal situation from your college dining hall (or maybe that's just me?) and when you leave cereal in the boxes they tend to topple over and make a mess. Plus with this, your breakfast will stay fresher.
Check out a TikTok of the cereal dispenser in action.
Promising review: "We have three kids and a very small kitchen with very little cabinet/counter space!!! We used to keep our cereal boxes on top of our refrigerator, but I've been trying to declutter and also come up with a solution for our kids to be able to get their own cereal in the mornings. THIS IS IT!!!! It looks great on our counter, and we have very little space, so it fits just right! This has been the perfect solution to giving our kids the independence they need to get their own breakfast! It has been a lifesaver!!! Love it!!!" —tenle
Get it from Amazon for $28.42.
29. A set of fridge organizers because you're spellbound by #FridgeTok videos and yearn for your own appliance to be as blissfully organized as those stars. And these'll prevent all kinds of spills!
Promising review: "My daughter wanted to organize the fridge after watching a series of TikTok videos! These were exactly what she wanted! Download TikTok for your kids and maybe they will want to help organize, too!" —Sarah C.
Get a set of eight bins from Amazon for $19.99 (clip the $2 off coupon for this price; available in four sizes and in sets of two, four, and six).
30. A set of TikTok-famous adjustable mug organizers to help you better use your kitchen cabinet space *and* also keep your mugs safer since they fit on top of a mug, creating a setup where you can safely stack a second mug on top instead of googling replacements.
Psst — if you want to see them in action, check out this viral TikTok of the mug organizers that's clocked millions of views. Elypro is a small business out of New York City making clever organization products for the home.
Promising review: "I love these cup organizers. I have a small cabinet above where my coffeepot is and these have made it a pleasure to open that cabinet. All cups are organized and easy to get to. They stay right where they should be. No more stacking them inside one another and them falling over when I opened the cabinet. I also use these for some bowls in my dish set. Works great. I just ordered a couple more and I am going to use them for my china cabinet. I wondered when I first bought them because the price was a little high. Worth every penny and more. I can not say enough good about these." —ChefGirl
