1. An internet-beloved time-marked water bottle so you know *precisely* how much you've consumed in an orderly, encouraging fashion before dehydration sneaks up on you.
Promising review: "LOVE IT! I am very picky when it comes to water bottles, but this one is perfect! It is 32 ounces so it holds a lot of water to drink throughout the day! My favorite part is that you can add ice to it and it will not sweat due to the material it is made of, which I LOVE!" —Bianca Aguilera
Get it on Amazon for $16.09 (clip the 15% off coupon on the product page for this price; available in 17 colors).
2. A no-scrub weekly shower cleaner you can quite literally "set and forget" to maintain its cleanliness over time — once you apply it after a shower, you just have to wait eight to 12 hours and it'll quietly tackle the soap scum, grime, oils, mold, and mildew stains without any elbow grease from you.
Promising review: "I saw this product on TikTok and decided to try it out for myself. The name doesn’t lie — spray it on, shut the bathroom door, and in a few hours, the shower is 100 times cleaner. Usually I’ll let it sit overnight, and by morning, the visible grime on the shower is gone, include soap scum. I’ll usually let the shower water rinse the residue out, and then will take a bucket just to get everything off the shower walls. It is a bit slick if you try to get in the shower without rinsing the residue, but otherwise it’s a worthy cleaning staple in my house." —Tara D.
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
3. A dishwasher magnet so nobody ever has to do the awkward guessing game of "what is the current status of this plate I want to eat off of" (or worse, nobody accidentally puts a bunch of dirty dishes away 😬).
Promising review: "I bought this because of a TikTok video. Super cool and now nobody has to ask me if the dishes are clean or not." —D. Washington
Get it from Amazon for $6.39 (available in five styles).
4. A weekly pill organizer designed with push-through silicone lids to easily organize your pills at the beginning of the week, meaning you don't have to spend a bunch of time rooting through pill boxes and trying to remember the timing of them each morning.
Sagely is a family-owned small business founded by husband-and-wife team Ellie Glazer and Ivor Miskulin, who spent three years designing the ideal, stress-free pill storage solution. The silicone lids are super secure, but also designed for gentle and easy opening and closing to account for users with dexterity issues.
Promising review: "Love this thing!!! I'm only 30 and didn't want an old lady pill box... and this one was modern and cool. The little slots to push in pills is fantastic and the containers are very large. It keeps my huge vitamin pills on either side and could fit over 10 large ones if needed. Love this thing. Worth the price and looks like it'll last forever. I do wish the magnets were stronger. They just keep them in place but will slide off if bumped. I assume this is helpful for people with arthritis. It's an easy fix. I take down one days worth of pills, set it on my counter and now I'm not too lazy to take my pills!" —Chicken McNugget
Get it from Amazon for $34.99.
5. A 52-week tear-off meal planning pad with space to plan all your meals in advance, plus a weekly shopping list you can grab and take to the store with you.
Check out a TikTok of the weekly meal planning pad in action.
Sweetzer and Orange is a small business specializing in planners, stationery, and educational products.
Promising review: "The magnet is great, sticks to fridge very well, does not slide or move. Perfect for planning meals and adding needed grocery items to the right side. Then you just tear off the right side and head to the store. This has made our family meal planning so much easier!" —SandyBeach
Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in two styles).
6. A slim profile phone power bank for an easy, highly portable way to get a quick charge on your phone when (oops) you forgot to charge it (again 😬). This bb may be small, but can fully charge an iPhone up to *three* times.
Promising review: "I like the solid and sleek construction. Fits easily in my pocket. Most importantly it works! Fast charging, enough capacity to charge my phone many times over several days, and withstands plenty of me dropping it and yanking the cord out awkwardly and accidentally." —Joe Hull
Get it from Amazon for $25.99 (available in two colors).
7. A set of reviewer-beloved "Loops," a meticulously designed ear plug that blocks out distracting, irritating, or overwhelming noise without completely blocking out the world around you, meaning you can wear them to focus at the office without seeming antisocial. (Especially since these are so subtle that nobody will notice them!)
Promising review: "I struggle with anxiety and ADHD and I find myself frequently sensitive to sounds. Things were especially difficult with the kids home working on school while I was trying to work from home. Not only have these been fabulous throughout the day but holy cow are they a lifesaver at night! My husband snores, and I have tried many pairs of ear plugs, sleep masks with little speakers in them…list goes on. These loops are extremely comfortable to sleep in. They cut the sounds of the snores down to manageable and sleep-able level without cutting off all sound." —Christina
Get it from Amazon for $24.95 (available in seven colors).
8. A "Did You Feed The Dog?" tracker perfect for anyone whose mornings and evenings go by in such a blur that sometimes (okay, every time) Fido 10000% tries to scam an extra meal out of you by pretending they haven't been fed yet (or appealing to another human in the house). Now you'll have peace of mind they've been taken care of, kibble-wise.
Promising review: "Awesome product! There are four of us who were working together to feed the dogs. It simplified everything because I no longer have to text to see if anyone had fed them every morning. Now I just to see if it's green and if not, I feed them and indicate it. We all love it so much!" —Toni Deegan
Get it from Amazon for $11.95.
9. A cleverly designed weatherproof hide-a-key rock you can leave by the door — a godsend for anyone who plays "hide and seek" so often with their keys that they're about to make varsity.
Check out a TikTok of the key rock in action.
Promising review: "This fake rock was exactly what I had been hoping to find. It blends in extremely well with the rock from my landscaping, and the key fits inside perfectly. The slide on the bottom was very easy to close as well. I definitely recommend it!" —P Gilroy
Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in four colors).
10. A pack of NeuroGum made with a blend of caffeine and nootropics designed to give you energy five times faster than regular coffee — without jitters or sluggishness afterward. All of the zing you need to keep your focus, with none of the crash. (Or 15 mid-afternoon trips to the bathroom!!)
Promising review: "I was hitting the afternoon slump and had a project to tackle that involved lots of details. I dug out my NeuroGum for a test run and WOW. The clarity and focus I had was awesome! I knocked out the project in record time and was able to move on to the next! The flavor is great and there's no energy crash or slump!" —Daniel
Get a six-pack with nine pieces of gum each from Amazon for $23.94.
You can read former BuzzFeeder Kayla Suazo's full review of NeuroGum for more deets!
11. A transparent monitor attachment for those of us with an old school, sticky note using habit — this will give you the ability to take the clutter off your desk and put reminders in your clear line of sight.
Each of the attachment has a sticky film that's strong enough to adhere it to your monitor, but easy enough to remove that it won't damage it.
Promising review: "I have 568 stickies on any given day and this is exactly what I needed to keep myself organized. They came packaged nicely, no cracks or scratches, and was easy to adhere. The adhesive is awesome. It's not going anywhere!!! I recommend this to anyone like me who needs a cool place for their notes. You will be the envy of your coworkers!" —Mason's Mom
Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in three styles).
12. An adorably encouraging daily planner you can fill out throughout the course of each day to keep yourself on track for all your calls, goals, and even your water intake. This is especially ideal for hybrid workers because you can tear off each sheet as you go instead of lugging the whole planner around with you!
Each planner comes with 50 tear-off sheets the size of a standard piece of paper.
Bliss Collections is a family-owned, Wisconsin-based business established in 2012 that specializes in stationery, planners and pads, and drinkware.
Promising review: "These daily planning sheets keep this mama on TRACK! I started out printing daily planning and schedule sheets from a free download on my computer. Then I realized why not just buy some already printed so I save my ink at home. I found these and love how the day, schedule, tasks, and health habits are organized. I've already reordered once and will continue to use these." —Shannon Hoglund
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
13. Or if you want to go ~all in~, a monthly subscription to Silk + Sonder, which will send you a brand new (and stunningly beautiful??) planner each month, equipped with guided prompts, wellness trackers, and dated calendar spreads. It's basically designed to encourage not just organization and growth, but help release creativity and manage stress.
Silk + Sonder is a small business founded by Meha Agrawal, a former software engineer who developed the planners as a way for people to stay emotionally and mentally connected with themselves through self-guided structure and creativity.
Promising review: "I started S+S to try and get my anxiety and depression better managed. I was struggling with a pretty bad depression period and wanted to be more proactive. It has kept me accountable and given me a mindfulness outlet which was much needed. I noticed a big change even just in the first week of having my first journal. Now, I am going to stick with it for a while longer! LOVE my Silk + Sonder Journals!" —Lindsey S.
Get it from Silk + Sonder at $24.95/month.
14. Or for the ~big picture~ thinkers, a tear-off weekly notepad to remind you of what the top priorities for each day are, so you don't feel as overwhelmed while powering through them.
Promising review: "I carry a weekly planner in my bag for scheduling appointments, meetings, classes, etc. Then on Sunday night or Monday morning, I transfer everything from the planner to a sheet from this pad. It stays sitting on the counter in my kitchen where I can easily jot down errands, groceries, etc either in the extra space or on the back. At first this seemed like an unnecessary duplication of effort, so I was looking for a better solution, but I've realized over the past couple of weeks that this really works for me." —Toledo
Get it from Amazon for $10.50 (available in 15 list styles).
15. A set of Monkey Noodles that might help you focus and remember your tasks — this is designed as a quiet sensory toy that stretches, pulls, twirls, wraps, *and* squeezes, helping calm anxiety during long meetings, brainstorms, and video conferencing marathons that laugh in the face of Dolly Parton's "9 To 5."
16. A Tile GPS tracker reviewers swear by not just to keep track of luggage (why?? is it in the middle of the Atlantic???? 💀) but everything from their keys to their pets. If you can lose it, the Tile can un-lose it for you.
Here's what BuzzFeeder Tasia Bass has to say about it: "I'm gonna tell you now, I have a ton of these on a lot of things like my keys, my wallet, and even my Nintendo Switch. My mom always asks 'How can someone so brilliant lose everything?' The app lets you connect as many tiles as you want (thankfully). I actually found out about these right before I was going to Japan. A friend recommended them to me and I am so glad he did because the airline lost my luggage during a layover in Vancouver and when I landed in Osaka, I was able to give them the exact coordinates so they could get it to me by the next morning and I didn't have to spend money buying months worth of clothes.
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in two colors and three pack sizes).
17. A splurge-worthy detachable leather Bandolier crossbody iPhone case for anyone prone to losing their gadgets or wallets — this also features a subtle wallet to conceal cash and credit cards, so you always have your Most Important Items at your fingertips.
Bandolier is a small business that specializes in crossbody bags for fashion and utility.
Promising review: "Worth the cost. So perfect for daily use, vacations, theme parks and hikes. Not having to dig through my bag/purse to snap a picture, check my phone and get my ID/credit card out is so nice and easy. The quality is unbeatable!" —Angeleno4Life
Get it from Amazon for $98 (available in ten different iPhone models and nine colors).
18. An under-the-desk phone holder because resisting the siren call of TikTok at 3 p.m. is beyond the power of any mere mortal, especially if your phone is constantly in view. This will keep your eyes on the prize (which is, unfortunately, an Excel spreadsheet) and your productivity intact.
Beyond 3D Creations is an Massachusetts-based Etsy shop established in 2020 that specializes in 3D-printed desk accessories.
Promising review: "This is definitely a hit! Now I’m so used to reaching my phone from this holder without looking down at my desk, and my screentime has decreased a lot during day time. This really helps in terms of being more efficient so that I can finish my work early and get more me time back at the end of the day. Highly recommend it if you want to be less distracted while working!" —Shelby Cedrone
Get it from Beyond 3D Creations on Etsy for $11.88+ (available in six colors, custom sizing available).
19. A handy minimalist weekly cleaning printable that's basically like "chore wheel, but make it fancy." This breaks down each day of the week with manageable cleaning tasks so you can maintain the cleanliness of your space on a day-to-day basis instead of getting overwhelmed cleaning it all at once.
Creative Type Store is a woman-owned, Canada-based Etsy shop that specializes in designer printables to make life easier.
Promising review: "Great for what I needed! I had started my own schedule, but felt like I was forgetting things, too much in a day, etc. This is super helpful!" —Erin Brie
Get it from Creative Type Store on Etsy for $4.18.
20. A convertible standing desk riser because some of us can only Big Brain enough to focus during our work days when we get to be up, down, and arrouuuunddd towwwwn. This lets you easily swap between sitting and standing positions depending on the flow of your day (read: how many meetings that could have been emails) so you can always be working as efficiently and comfortably as possible.
Tech Orbits is a small business that specializes in desk converters and office accessories.
Promising review: "I've been looking at these for months and finally decided to buy one. Super happy with my purchase. I didn’t want to replace my entire work desk so I opted for this. The entire unit slides up and down easily. Plenty of room around the monitor for speakers, pens, notes, even a fan. easily assembly. Not too heavy. I’ve really enjoyed being able to stand at my desk. I’ve been struggling with lower back pain and standing more seems to be helping. I find myself wanting to stand more often than I thought." —halaly
Get it from Amazon for $169.99+ (available in three colors and six styles).
21. A self-watering, self-aerating planter to spare you some Plant Parent fretting — this will help take care of your little green babies when you're running around and can't afford to give them the TLC they're demanding.
Promising review: "I recently got interested in growing plants at home and have been trying out a large variety of pots — this is by far the best I’ve found. I’m using it for a cherry tomato plant that was in poor condition when I transplanted it, but is really thriving in this new pot. I rarely water it from the top, filling the bottom tray instead. The soil is always perfectly moist, and I don’t have the problem I experience with my other plants where the surface layer of soil is dry and hard but the lower layers get water logged leading to root rot issues and yellowing limp leaves." —GSN
Get it from Amazon for $17.99.
22. Or if it's too late (woof) — a bunch of Miracle-Gro "food spikes" that can bring plants as sad as the tree from A Charlie Brown Christmas back from the brink of death, and then will continuously feed them for 30–60 days as a bonus.
Promising review: "I always kill my plants, but I decided to try again. I just bought five houseplants, and three of them were marked down because they were looking pretty puny. Since I tend to kill them anyway, I figured I would give them a try and save some money. I put one of these spikes in each plant, and they all looked so much healthier and happier after just a couple of days. I also added one spike to the only houseplant that I've had for years without killing (I was beginning to think it was artificial); the leaves looked healthier almost immediately. I'm very happy with this product, and it was a great price." —victoria
Get 24 spikes from Amazon for $2.79, and get a version for orchids here.
23. A Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamp because honestly? Having to remind yourself to clean the toilet every few days is a scam. Give your brain a vacation and let this do the job for you. (And prevent grime build up and toilet rings while it's at it!)
Check out a TikTok of the Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamp to see it in action!
Promising review: "I was sooo skeptical and confused about how they’d work but the gel solidifies and with every flush, suds wash through with the water and it really makes a fresh difference. Also the scent is light but really nice and fresh! I recommend these 100%! They’re super interesting but they do the job." —Janet
Get it from Amazon for $5.85.
24. An insulated soundproofing strip that might just be a must-have if you work from home — this easily sticks to the outer rims of your door so you won't get tempted to peace out of work if other members of your household have different work hours and they start blasting Parks & Rec in the next room while you're still trying to focus.
Psst — this insulated strip also stops heat and air conditioning from escaping out of the crack under the door, saving energy and money!
Promising review: "Product works really well! I needed a quick fix to my home office situation, I live in an apartment in Manhattan and never noticed how much sound comes in and out, until I had to be on conference calls working from home! This little tape made a big difference, took me a couple of minutes to install." —Sandra Revueltas
Get it from Amazon for $8.97 (available in two colors).
25. A user-friendly hexagonal productivity timer with six present countdown times you can initiate just by flipping it on its side. Not only does it have an oh-so-satisfying display screen you can use to count up or down, but it has a "mute" option so you won't disturb your coworkers when you're trying to do an email answering power hour (help).
Promising review: "Love love love this product. Simple design, works great. I time myself during writing sessions so I'm not sitting in long stretches. This little timer is perfectly shaped and has several pre-programmed time options. Highly recommend." —Mimi Foster
Get it from Amazon for $33.99 (clip the $4 off coupon on the product page for this price).
26. A delightfully colorful poster-sized hanging calendar perfect for anyone who needs to visualize longterm deadlines *and* establish a Rainbow Brite mentality about tackling them.
Poketo is a small business established in 2003 that specializes in design-conscious goods.
Promising review: "I received my spectrum wall calendar last week and oh boy, it didn't disappoint! Exactly as pictured! It is hard to find a calendar like this, most out there are dull and small. I have received lots of compliments!" —Tatiana Hall
Get it from our Goodful shop for $48.
27. An outlet timer with clearly marked time increments for the "Wait, did I remember to ... ?" crowd. This auto-shuts off appliances between 15 minutes and six hours, making it ideal for anything from hair straighteners to slow cookers.
Check out a TikTok of the outlet timer in action.
Promising review: "I was looking for a better countdown timer to turn off corded entertainment devices after I fall asleep. The one I've been using has small buttons and a LCD display. Although any countdown time can be set on it, the display is hard to see in low lighting. This BN-LINK has larger buttons and knowing their order allows me to select a preset time in the dark. Yes, not infinitely flexible, but 15 and 30 minutes, plus 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours is close enough for my needs." —Picky Consumer 01
Get it from Amazon for $11.99.
28. Plus a SwitchBot Smart Switch Button Pusher to turn virtually *any* device with a press-able "on/off" switch into smart tech in an instant.

Reviewers love this because it doesn't require you to "smart enable" other parts of your home. It's also a great way to turn on your kettle or coffee brewer from the other room so it's ready for you when you get out of bed!
Promising review: "Super great! Comes with clear instructions, the mobile app is clear and well designed, and it's super easy to set the whole thing up. Honestly I'm really happy with the product. Now I don't have to get up all the time when I inevitably forget to turn the lights off. I can just hit the button on my phone and VOOP the little arm comes out and presses the switch!" —Noah R.
Get it from Amazon for $20.30 (available in white and black).
29. A kitchen-safe locking container reviewers *swear* by for getting themselves motivated and focused — you can put items like your phone in it to prevent yourself from getting sucked into a TikTok hole while you're studying or distracted from chatting with friends at the dinner table. It will lock items for up to ten days, so some reviewers even put cash in it for a little weekend reward for getting through the week!
Check out a TikTok of the locking container in action.
Kitchen Safe is a US-based small business that specializes in lockboxes to help curb distracting habits.
Promising review: "This product has saved me in many ways. I’ve been struggling with trying to focus studying for my classes. Instant game changer. Since there is no distractions I’m forced to do my work or just sit there doing nothing for an hour. I don’t like to waste time so I’m always gonna choose to do the work. This product has definitely increased my productivity by a landslide. I recommend this product if you sometimes just need a kick in the ass to get going and focus on your work." —Michael Okoro
Get it from Amazon for $59+ (available in 14 styles and three sizes).
30. A magnetic acrylic weekly planner for the fridge to keep you organized in the most aesthetically pleasing way possible. Reviewers use this for everything from meal planning to listing fam activities to appointment reminders.
Check out a TikTok of the magnetic acrylic planner in action.
Each planner also comes with six colorful markers!
Promising review: "I love the bright colors of the markers that it comes with it and it’s super helpful to remember what we’re having for dinner for the week! Comes with markers, an eraser, a little cloth, and some little sticky pads to put on the back of the magnets so that it doesn’t scratch your fridge up, love that!" —Krista Paige
Get it from Amazon for $17.99.
31. A cleverly designed mug warmer to put competing mug warmers to shame — this one *only* warms up when you trigger the sensor by setting your mug down on it, so you don't have to worry about the heat of the pad if you forget to unplug it and leave it unattended. This is every office worker and slow coffee guzzler's DREAM.
Promising review: "I drink coffee pretty much all day especially during the fall and winter. It was a hassle to go back and forth to the kitchen at work to warm my coffee. I saw this product and thought I’d try it and I absolutely LOVE it. It has a weight sensor so it turns on when you place your cup on the top plate and turns off when cup is lifted. I use it at work daily. I also think you could place a candle in a glass container on the warmer and it would work as well. My coffee is never too hot. It’s perfect. The only CON is that I wish it had a longer cord so I could move to a diff spot on my desk." —Kim bur lee
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (clip the $3 off coupon on the product page; available in five styles).
32. A discreet seat gap filler for that awkward extra space in your car — you'll never have to lose another precious Junior Mint (or, like, your entire phone) to the infinite void under the seat again.
Drop Stop is a small business that specializes in car accessories.
Promising review: "Somehow my phone manages to ALWAYS fall perfectly between the large gap between my console and seat. And MAN when I'm driving it is so frustrating, because I can NEVER reach it without stopping the car, because it's wayyyy under my seat. Before I ordered this I tried the traditional insert that is a popular solution because it gives you extra storage and such, but it didn't fit the gap, it was loose, sloppy and would literally slide forward with the brakes. UGH, Those are now sitting on my bar waiting to be gifted to some lucky person hopefully with a smaller gap. I immediately ordered these and love love love them!" —Ronald & Shannon White
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $24.99.
33. A MacBook shortcut keyboard cover so you can stop pressing buttons at random whenever you forget and hoping for the best. This shows you all kinds of hacks like how to quickly open search bars, minimize and open new windows, and take screenshots with your keys.
Promising review: "This keyboard cover is amazing! The colors are bright and the design is cute. The quick key cheat sheet (as I like to call it) is a lifesaver! All of my coworkers ask me where'd I get it and always are impressed by the cheat sheet's detail. I chose this product only because the color scheme would look good with the pack of stickers I selected to sticker bomb my laptop, but it turned out to be a much more valuable asset to a new Apple user like myself!" —Bee
Get it from Amazon for $6.99.
34. A purse organizer insert you can easily slide into any bag, from a tote to a designer dig, for instant pockets to organize yourself when you're out and about with your trendiest (often pocket-less??) bags. Another perk? If you're switching out your purse, all you have to do is slide the organizer out and pop it in with all your stuff raring to go.
Bonus: this also stops the inside liner of your purse from getting dirty if anything happens to explode (been there, cleaned the Panera butter packet out of that).
Promising review: "Fantastic quality and completely changes the game of big-tote organization. Love everything about it." —Redecorating Mom
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in five sizes and 16 colors).
