The newest Nintendo Switch, a stuffed waffle maker, and Disney coffee you won't be able to resist giving a try.
Promising review: "Love these, have purchased a few times and will now buy the 50-pack because they really add a ton of fun to my bonfires. Depending on how much your fire is raging they will last 30–60 minutes. I use two to three packets at a time. Highly recommend." —JAO

Promising review: "This is absolutely amazing privacy window film. We just moved into a new house and unfortunately both of our bathroom windows are facing other houses. I personally like natural light so I wanted to find a solution that allowed me to keep my blinds open but also gave us privacy. This is completely amazing. Not only does it give us privacy, but it gives our bathrooms a whole new feel! I’ve even put it in our hallway window that also faces another house. No matter where we’re moving to next, I’m definitely using this privacy window film. It so incredibly easy to install and it looks like it’s the actual window. I definitely recommend this!" —LinaRi
Get it from Amazon for $8.98+ (available in seven sizes).

I recently finished playing Spiritfarer — which, IMO, has Studio Ghibli vibes and is both devastating and beautiful at the same time. It's *very* deep but an extremely satisfying game that many of my coworkers have also enjoyed. It would make a great gift for any gamer looking to try out an indie game this winter.
Promising review: "You want a game that isn't too stressful and allows for a lot of exploration? This will do ya. And there's exploration of different characters as well as exploration of the environment." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I took a chance and bought this originally as a 'Band-Aid fix' to refinish a desk. I had looked in stores in the contact paper aisles, but all of them were just that...paper. THIS item is actually a thin sheet of vinyl(?) with adhesive, and I ended up liking it so much I bought more and re-finished my kitchen countertop with it as well! Highly recommended if you want to change the look of your counters but you don't have the money for a full remodel just yet. It can be cleaned with dish soap and water just like a real countertop." —Ezra Boyd
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in two sizes).
Promising review: "I love products that are multifunction-able. These work as decor while also having a purpose. So easy to put together and go great with a boho decor scheme. Not enough good things to say. Would be an awesome housewarming gift." —Marissa Lancia
Get it from Amazon for $11.95.
Promising review: "Makes a perfectly beautiful poached egg. I love poached eggs and can make a delicious egg but they usually aren't as beautiful as a restaurant egg. Until I bought this funny looking egg poacher which absolutely works every single time. Bring water to a gentle boil, add salt and a spoon of white vinegar, add egg, cover, remove from heat, and three minutes later: beautiful perfection." —dp

Promising review: "I haven't been happy with a pair of tights in so long — they fit better than most tights. These are extraordinarily comfortable, and super elastic — I can either leave them at my hips or raise them over my stomach. I bought purple, and the color and opacity are exactly as I expected. I'm picking up wine red and black next." —Rexcalibur
Get them from Amazon for $11.69+ (available in sizes XS–XL, 24 colors, and a set of six).
I have the pot lid version and love it!
Promising review: "Tired of stacking platters or rummaging in the bottom cabinet? These adjustable racks are fantastic. I bought three! I now have platters and Pyrex pans organized and at my fingertips. Truly does exactly what description says. And being able to adjust the racks to fit the casserole dish, cookie sheet, plate or platter is perfect. I am very happy. 😊" —Ratcliffewofford
Get it from Amazon for $14.39 (available in two styles).
Promising review: "Ever since I have started working from home I have had a lot of trouble getting a good amount of steps in a day. COVID obviously made this even more challenging. This little device is super handy for adding steps in periodically (which it accurately counts!) or hopping on for a full-length workout. It is also lightweight and portable so I can just grab it to get steps in on the balcony for the view or plop it down in front of the TV if I want to get a workout in while watching something." —A. Kubicek
Get it from Amazon for $40.33.

Promising review: "Oh my goodness. This was way better than expected. Definitely only need one waffle per person, they are huge. They are beyond delicious and the stuffing options are endless. It does take about seven minutes to make one waffle but totally worth it. Comes out perfect every single time. No issues at all. Buy it now!" —armywife

Promising review: "I love this!!! It has the coolest button detail that you can button all the way up or have loose like my pics. It’s incredibly soft and amazing quality! I highly recommend this!!

I recently started using the Nintendo Switch OLED and am a big fan! My husband has the original Switch and I have the Switch Lite, but this newest version has definitely made a good impression on me. I wasn't always enthused with the original version (my hands are small!) but, despite this one being similar in size, the OLED feels a lot lighter and easy to hold. The colors are the screen are beautiful and *so* clear. It connects very easily to the TV, so you can play multiplayer games at any time!
Get it from Walmart for $398.70.
Promising review: "This product was PERFECT! I give it 5 stars out of 5! I got this for my daughter, since she is redoing her room to have more of a teenage-girl look. She was browsing Amazon (like always!) to find some wall decor. This came up and she fell in love! We ended up buying it the next day and I’m in love with it also! I think I’ll order one for me. 😂 Besides that, if you're reading this and thinking, 'Should I get this?' YOU SHOULD!!! Overall, great product, great price, FAST SHIPPING!" —Ava Luongo

Anyone who has spent some time at the Disney Parks knows the delightful taste of Joffrey's Coffee — it goes hand in hand with the experience. It's served in the Disney Resorts and at the parks.

My sister has this couch and it is actually unreal. She's admittedly never loved an item more (except for maybe her original Lovesac, TBH). Lovesac's couches are super cool because you can choose how many seats and sides your couch comes with and then continue to rearrange them as needed.
This new version with built-in StealthTech sound really takes the experience to another level. My sister says she can literally feel like the sound while she's sitting on the couch! The speakers are made by Harmon Kardon (veryyyy high quality) and can also be added into any existing "Sactional." There are also tons of fabrics to choose from — and don't get me started on just how comfy-cozy they are!
Get it from Lovesac for $5,142.50+ (available in 17 configurations).
Promising review: "OMG! I am a very picky shopper, this is one of the best pieces that I have purchased, it has a great weight without being too heavy, and pockets, love love pockets. I am going to order every color." —Jane Carney

For those of you who *don't* know, this is an iconic lyric from "Out of the Woods" by Taylor Swift which is rumored to be about her and Harry Styles' relationship. Hehehe. If this song isn't your fave, then you can check out one of these other 12 options.

Get it from AllThingsThirteen on Etsy for $20.
Promising review: "This is a great item for lightly spraying salads, roasting vegetables, or adding some oil to a prepared plate of pasta. Avoids using more oil than necessary so that’s a savings right there. I also use it to put a light coating of oil on all my cast-iron cookware to prevent rust. Best of all, it looks great on the dinner table. Lots of uses which really makes it an asset in the kitchen. It seems that it should last a while so I think it is worth the few bucks spent." —Clancy

As a fan of The Bachelor and Disney, I had such a blast reading this fun, romantic twist on the classic story.
Get it from Target for $12.79.
Promising review: "I never write reviews, but these are easily the best jeans I have ever owned in my life and I had to share!!! They fit perfectly in every way to the point where I can't believe these aren't custom-made for me. They are incredibly comfortable without sacrificing the look of real jeans and the tummy panel is FANTASTIC. On top of all of that, these are more comfortable than my leggings. I'm in love with these pants and will be purchasing the rest of the colors to replace every other pair of jeans I own." —Anonymous

Back to the Roots is a small business based in California that was founded by two college friends. They specialize in indoor gardening kits with a mission to reconnect families to food.
Promising review: "This product has been so much fun to watch! I followed the directions, exactly as written, and the mushrooms began growing within three to four days. I will say that I did soak them for close to 10 hours before putting them back in the box to grow and I believe this helped a ton. I also kept the box inside by a window with the blinds closed in order for them to get indirect sunlight. The mushrooms grew tremendously for almost a week before they started to shrink so I clipped them to cook with and they were DELICIOUS! This was such a fun product and process to watch. I am now in the process of trying to get a second batch of shrooms from the same box — fingers crossed!" —Steph A

In the early second trimester of my pregnancy my hair suddenly decided it wanted to abandon me and was falling out in the shower in major clumps. It's bad enough to feel nauseas and uncomfortable, so I refused to sit by and do nothing about my new hair woes. Enter: Drunk Elephant. I tried a bunch of different remedies and so far this shampoo and conditioner has been the only solve! They're both filled with a blend of oils, amino acids, and marula butter that keep hair feeling soft, fresh, and hydrated. The suds from the shampoo actually feel...soft? I'm not sure how else to explain it but using this combo has been a delight. My only complaint is I've chipped a few nails trying to open the bottles!
Get them from Amazon: shampoo and conditioner for $25 each.

I invested in one of these this year and I'm so glad I did — I use it to make lattes at home and have saved a lot of dollars without having to run out to Starbucks every morning (just...once a week or so instead hehe).
Promising review: "OMG, this milk frother makes my homemade latte taste like it was made by a barista. It was perfect. So perfect that I bought a second one for my brother who loves coffee to use. I've already recommended it to some coworkers. It has changed my coffee drinking life. This comes highly recommended." —Michelle Pirestani
Get it from Amazon for $16.24 (available in 43 colors).
Promising review: "These blackout curtains are awesome. If not for these, my baby wouldn't be taking longer naps during the day. Since I got these I was able to establish a routine with my little one. These curtains will not make the room pitch black so I have to tape them to the wall to make the room darker. It gets the job done and that is good enough for me. When my baby takes his 45 min or an hour nap, I can do housework, shower, and take care of our dog. If you have a baby who won't nap longer than 15 mins, get these curtains! Trust me, they will change your life! I love them so much that I ordered a couple more for the grandparents' house." —E. Champion

Promising review: "We have had the original Petcube for some time and have loved being able to see our furry friend (cat) when we are away. We had always talked about getting another one so that we could see more of her while we are traveling. Enter the new Petcube...a petite footprint with a wide-angle lens. Easy to set up and easy to use. Absolutely perfect." —NLVG

I recently snagged this sweater in green (a change from my typical neutral wardrobe) and it's SO snuggly. Super soft and comfortable. I wore it on Christmas Eve and was nice 'n' cozy all day/night — even at nearly six months pregnant. There's a very good chance I go back for another color soon.
Promising review: "This is my first time buying recycled cashmere and I didn’t know what to expect; turns out, it’s just as soft as any other cashmere! I love the oversized, effortless look while being very stylish. Would recommend to buy." –Pckuo

You can also use it to chop nuts, fruits, and veggies!
Promising review: "I purchased this as a gift for my friend who is a fantastic cook — she uses fresh ingredients almost exclusively — but pressing fresh garlic is a task usually delegated. No longer — Gracula is there for her. She uses him nearly every time she needs garlic (which is basically daily) and months later still makes a point of saying how much she enjoys the gift. I'm pretty sure she likes it better than other gifts I've gotten her which were more expensive/thought out, and I'm fairly certain it's what took me from 'good friend' to 'best friend,' but it be that way sometimes. Anyway, definitely recommended for people who cook with garlic and have a sense of humor." —L
