I have this outlet set up in my bathroom and it's great! I'm able to keep my source of music plugged in(who doesn't enjoy a shower dance party?) even when I'm using my straightener or curling iron. It's a helpful nightlight at night so when I inevitably get up to pee I don't have to wince at the overhead lights.
Promising review: "I work from home in a small apartment, and this really made my setup work the way I want it to. I need to use all six plugs; plus, I like to keep my phone and MiFi charging while working too. This was the perfect thing for me to get everything plugged in and essentially retrofitted into a built-in apartment wall desk setup that was intended for the large desktop towers of the late '90s. I’m ordering a second one in hopes it transforms another part of my weird floor plan. Bonus: The USB ports seem to fast-charge my iPhone XS Max. I can go from dead to fully charged in about 90 minutes." —Moose

Promising review: "I'm a chronic coffee forgetter. I can't drink it straight from the brewer (too hot for me) so I set my mug down to cool slightly and often get distracted. Of course I then come back to my coffee to find it's already cold. I've currently got the warmer at my office and it's working great. I can sip my coffee leisurely over the course of an hour and it's still nice and warm." —Elle

Promising review: "Easy to install and my plants seem to like them. The built in timer feature is extremely convenient as I have to have most of my other grow lights on outlet timers." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "It was always a pain to reach down the side of my bed to reach my chargers, not to mention the wad of cables I’d have to sift through just to charge my phone. I finally searched for a solution and came across these. They’re great! They’re really easy to stick on and they stay in place. I haven’t had an issue of them falling off. Whenever I need to charge a device they’re right next to me, easy to reach and untangled. I definitely recommend!" —Nelis Perez

If it were up to me, I would leave my Christmas lights up inside my home all year long. These twinkle lights are a great way to create that look without being overtly holiday-themed. Tinker Bell would certainly approve!
Promising review: "I saw a few pictures online of fairy lights with sheer curtains and loved the look. These lights in particular are perfect for what I was looking for. It gives off a warm cozy glow, and really adds a nice touch of oomph to the room." —NG

My fellow editor, Emma Lord may have just convinced me to upgrade from my old AirPods:
"I have a pair of these, and they're not playing around. Once they're securely in your ear, you can toggle the headphones between noise-cancelling and regular sound, depending on your situation. I've been working from home, and the noise-cancelling is so effective that I can work next to a window where my neighbor is doing heavy construction and I don't hear anything louder than a faint buzzing. It's quieter than if I'd just plugged my ears with my own fingers. I'm also a runner, and these don't budge when you're sweating, which is nice. It's also handy that these toggle out of noise-cancellation mode, because I feel better being able to hear traffic and other people around me when I'm out and about. The TL;DR: I love these so much I have zero interest in owning another pair of headphones for as long as I live."

Promising review: "I am using 43' wide curved monitor. The light is fitted to the monitor and works well. That is exactly what I want. The traditional desk lamp easily causes eye discomfort and cannot provide light uniformly for eyes. The product solves the issue perfectly and save space on the desk." —Hung-Bin

Promising review: "Do you want to add lights to your monitor, television, or just around a display? Then this is the product for you! Multiple sizes, easy to use, and perfect to add that extra something to whatever it is you're working on! Purchased mine for behind my computer monitor and the amount of light is perfect when playing games or using my computer at night as the red setting helps keep me from having a bright light going on. Also great to add when watching videos or movies as you can color-match the screen to add a new layer to your experience. For the price and quality, you can't beat it!" —Timothy S. Smith

This lil' cloud is SO cool! The crystals inside react to different weather conditions. It's helpful for planning your day and will look super cool in your home.
Promising review: "Not only looking great but it's really working. You can decide that it's 'stay in bed' weather without even moving the curtain. Very useful." —Firebox Customer

Promising review: "I had no idea I'd love Alexa so much — I wake up in the morning and she does the routine I've set up, and she's so comforting and useful and fun overall. My husband and I played Skills trivia games for hours last night. If we had kids it would be even more super useful (kid's workouts, stories, games) — we even had a goodnight story read to us by Alexa and it was awesome. I'm really loving it. The Echo Dot itself is pretty great — the sound quality is pretty good, the bass when turned up is not that great, but if you really want to rock out you can connect it to other speakers or just use something else instead. I'm really surprised by how much I like the Alexa app (and the Echo Dot), because I'm a little resistant to technology, but it's pretty easy to figure out and feels like a new little buddy in the home. I'm excited to get some SmartHome stuff now so I can turn on/off lights, heat, etc. Really cool, though, overall — I feel like Judy Jetson!" —Leah

Promising review: "I have multiple USB-charged devices and only had one wall outlet plug in for USB. I looked for one with great reviews because I had one before that ended up breaking and I love this one. It can charge six devices at the same time and not have a slowing down or overheating problem. I would buy this again, it's durable and very sleek-looking whereas my old one was kind of bland-looking and had some of the ports break. Six months later and this one is still going strong." —Jamie Childers

I have one of these bad boys and can validate that it is SO easy to use. I pop my phone into it when I get in the shower and click the lil' button on the front to start the cleaning process. You can also charge your phone while it's inside the machine. Fellow germaphobes — you can thank me later.
Promising review: "Bought this along with a set of agar plates to test it for ourselves. We swabbed my daughter's and husband's phones before and after use. It does work. We are very happy with the product." —Ginger

Promising review: "I purchased this lint remover because of the reviews. And I must say that it works awesome. I like the fact that it’s electronic and not battery operated. The Aw Union Lint remover is very easy to use and has taken my extremely linty shirt and made it look new again. The lint remover is a perfect price and comes with a drawstring pouch, a replacement blade and a brush for cleaning. Worth the value." —Lea

Promising review: "Elago Design's motto is 'Simple Sophistication,' and that describes this product perfectly. I had tried several stands for various cell phones, and they were all a less than perfect solution. As a last resort, I bought the elago M3 stand, and it's perfect. All of my other purchases had a similar saw-horse design, But elago's stand design is unique — a 'U' shaped piece of brushed metal heavy enough to keep it stable. The cradle is a solid piece of very nice wood with a perfect sized cut-out generous enough even for a USB3 connector. I love it." —Richard W.

I'm obsessed with candles, so it was a no-brainer for my husband to gift me this surprisingly super fun gadget. It's really simple to use and charge, and it really works! I'll never have to buy another lighter again. My first charge lasted me seven months!
Promising review: "This is seriously the coolest device of my winter holiday. It makes lighting candles a breeze. Yes, there is a weird crackling noise, but that's a super minor annoyance. It's a super intuitive device. Plus the lighter with the USB (included), charge for a bit, then pop it open and light ALL THE THINGS; well, candles. I don't know how well it lights cigarettes or whatever. However, for my personal intended use, it's awesome!" —Jee W

This lil' gadget is compatible with phones, tablets, and the Nintendo Switch. So, no matter how you choose to relax after a busy day, it'll support you!
Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for. I had been wanting to play my Nintendo Switch in bed without having to hold up the entire console. This mount allows me to have the screen hover above my head while my arms and neck can relax. This is the ultimate in laziness and I love it. :)" —Michael K.

Promising review: "Love the clean design on this extension cord! Looks very modern and nice in our house, I love that I don't have to fuss with a tangled plastic cord and it actually looks nice where the cord is exposed. I also like how the cord comes out of the side of the plug, so that you can easily plug it in behind furniture without kinking the cord or pulling your furniture out awkwardly. I plan to buy more of these." —Lizzy

Promising review: "Bought two and very glad I did. One of them goes behind a sliding barn door with very little clearance between the sliding door and the wall. It goes right over the outlet and from the wall, it’s about the width of the pencil. Solved my problem, otherwise the outlet behind the barn door would have been unusable. The other one goes in an awkward spot where the bed goes right up against the outlet. Using this cover is so much safer than having a plug being knocked around by the bed. I am so happy with these." —andante

Promising review: "So my husband and I are gamers and we needed a better solution to our headphones to keep them from breaking, this was our answer. Not only will it hold our headphones it will also hold an Xbox One controller which is even more perfect. It's very sturdy and feels very well made its grip is strong and can accommodate multiple different tables. The bottom hook also turns around so you can hide it under the tables when it's not in use! This also held my purse which is probably around 10 lbs .. I'll probably end up ordering more in the near future for gifts and myself!! Highly recommend." —Amber

You might as well go ahead and add this set of essential oils to your cart while you're at it (lavender is my personal favorite).
Promising review: "This is a really great diffuser, especially for a first timer like myself. It's small and simple and also succeeds in freshening up my entire room. The 30-second burst is great at keeping your space feeling and smelling great throughout the day, while the continuous mode lasts for about six hours so I keep it on while I'm sleeping. Overall, a really great and inexpensive diffuser!" —Pascal Ibe

Promising review: "I live in Texas and when it's 110 degrees Fahrenheit outside, my AC can't always keep my room at 72 degrees with my PC gaming at full blast. The result is sweaty hands, which I can't stand. I tried all sorts of remedies to reduce hand sweat, but the simple answer is just a little fan pointed at my controller. This fan. It has a nice firm clip to hold it on the edge of my desk, and it has a tilt/swivel mount that lets me point it exactly where I need it. It's sturdy, with a nice 'clicky' motion to the swivel adjustment. It stays where it's put, and it doesn't feel like I'll break it just by adjusting the angle. I also like that it has two speeds. The low speed is nice to aim at my face when the room is warm. I can't hear it at all, and it makes a pleasant, gentle breeze. High speed is audible but not loud, and you feel it. That's what I use to keep my thumbs dry during a game. Couldn't recommend this fan more highly." —E. Burgess

Promising review: "This little robot clock is too cute for words. The 'hands' can hold messages. The clock hands do not tick. And the eyes flash when the alarm goes off! Great gift for children over six and adults. The clock functions are easy to set; the clock is battery operated so no need for a cord. Although I think the yellow one is wonderful, I plan to order red and white ones for holiday gifts. Most of the outside is metal so the robot feels and looks as if it is a high quality item. Enjoy!" —waterviewgal

I think nearly every member of my family now has an Amazon Fire TV Stick. My sisters were fighting over one for a while until one caved and finally bought her own — that's how much we love this product. Movie marathons will never be the same after buying this little gadget, you can truly watch anything your heart desires. See ya', social life.

Promising review: "I foster kittens for a rescue, and no matter how often I clean the boxes, two or three times daily, and general cleaning, I still have an odor in the room. I got this product out of desperation. It was a good size and weight for kitties bouncing around. I am truly shocked and enormously happy with how it works! My husband was at wits' end with his sensitive nose. He goes in there now and is astonished, no smell. We are getting another for the kitchen! The room is 10×10, and I use it on the two setting. I also enjoy the night light. Very helpful without disturbing sick sleepy babies recovering from illness." —victoria Mohagen
