Promising review: "THESE ARE LIFE-CHANGING. They even give you a hand pump to use in case you're taking the bags camping or just don't have a vacuum handy. I tested the pump to see how well it works, and it worked perfectly! Works just as well as a vacuum, just takes a little more effort pumping out the air. Using these bags, I got half my closet back! I used three bags to store ALL THE items in my closet including three large pillows and several thick blankets and comforters. I will most definitely be buying more; these are fantastic!!!" —Knastay

Promising review: "These allow more writing space than usual page tab markers, which is really useful for my college studies as well as my case note prep for legal work. If you are a fanatic note-taker like me, these are superb for helping you stay organized and focused on important information. They can be used for other things, like calendar and agenda notes, too." —Danielle H.

Promising review: "Where have these been all my life? These are perfect. So happy to have my spices off the shelf, and up on the door where I can see them ALL (and they're even organized alphabetically). One tip: If you're putting labels on, turn the container so the 'sprinkle' lid is in the upper righthand corner. This will keep very fine spices (baking soda, for example) from leaking out when on the steel base." —Robyn

Promising review: "I absolutely love this thing! I have much less clutter on my sink thanks to this. If there's anyone not sure if it will fit due to an object, all you need is 1.25 inches of space between the edge of your existing outlet plate and the piece of furniture. I have a GFCI with a standard wall plate." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I can’t say enough good things. It’s amazing quality. It’s super sturdy and holds its shape — it doesn’t collapse yet it does fold completely flat. The fabric is nice and thick. The lid is magnetic so it closes itself and stays closed. The interior bags easily detach and have handles for easy carrying in and out or washing. Absolutely a great buy. Love love love!" —Kerry

Promising review: "I bought these fabric baskets to organize my out-of-season clothes. They are just perfect. Before I bought these baskets, my closet was always a mess. I bought six at the same time. One for sweaters, one for pants, one for small things like hats, scarf and gloves. I bought both colors and put them in order. My closet looks nice and neat with them." —Huimin Cheng

Push down the button on the top to activate the airtight seal. To open, just push down again for the button to pop up. The lid also comes apart for easier cleaning.
Promising review: "Love the OXO pop-top canisters! They seal well and open easily with a press to the pop-top. I have arthritis in my hands and these are fabulous and so easy to open, yet so secure when the lid is popped close. Also has a useful knob on the bottom of the lid so you can stick an OXO scoop inside the container to the lid rather than down in whatever you are storing in the container." —Lori A. Fregin

Promising review: "My Labrador retriever is the master manipulator when it comes to mealtime. He has very convincingly deceived us many mornings with his plaintive eyes that he has not received his breakfast. Les jeux sont faits! Mr. Chunkamonk will fool us no more! The meal tracker fits securely on top of his Simple Human pet food container, and we simply slide the appropriate switch to confirm that he’s been fed." —Moira

Promising review: "Super easy to put together... no tools, other than your own hands, are needed. Had it done in 30 minutes, if that. I love this unit. Brings my once cluttered and hardly any counter space kitchen, back in order! There's a couple other very similar racks, one of which is a few inches taller. I went with this one because I want to easily see/access/clean everything on the top shelf." —Jennifer Williams

You can separate the two lists or keep them attached! It even has two magnets on the back so you can easily hang it on the fridge.
Promising review: "I’ve been starting to get into meal prepping and this planner really helps! I like being able to look up recipes on my phone and then write down whatever ingredients I still need on the grocery list section of this planner. The fact that it's magnetic is cool because you can hang it on the fridge. I love how the grocery list section can be ripped off so you can take it to the store, but the daily meal plans remain on the fridge so you can stay organized. This is a very simple idea, but it’s cute and helps keep me organized and motivated to plan out my meals." —Samantha M.

This bag is BPA-, PVC-, and latex-free.
Promising review: "I've tried a LOT of reusable bags as there are a lot of options out there all using a variety of materials. The fabric ones just get gross over time. The vinyl ones are hard to clean and aren't usually dishwasher-safe. There are other silicone ones that need a separate rod to close them that you can easily lose. This one is the most simple and easy to use. No separate pieces to lose. Can withstand any temperature/microwave/dishwasher/whatever. And if they get gunky they are very easy to clean and I trust that they aren't hiding gross crumbs in any of the crevices." —Megan A.

The outside color is a really pretty pale sage and the texture is soft. It's pretty nicely padded which makes me feel secure carrying around my laptop inside." —Gisela
