1. A splurge-worthy Dyson vacuum to help you attempt to tackle the never-ending influx of hair, fuzz, and dust that threatens to take over every crevice of your home.
Honestly, no matter which version of the Dyson stick vacuum you purchase, I can promise you'll be satisfied with the results. I've used a variety of 'em and I can't say enough good things about the product. It doesn't hurt my back to use for an extended period of the time, the battery lasts long enough to clean my entire apartment, and it simply just WORKS. We have ours mounted in a narrow spot alongside our fridge — it's really easy to keep in plain sight without being an eyesore.
Promising review: "I love this vacuum. The V10 doesn't disappoint. While it's weird to get used to holding this tiny piece of machinery, it really does an amazing job. It was incredible how much dog fur it picked up! I was pretty grossed out to be honest, to think I lived in this atmosphere for this long 'thinking' it was clean is nuts! I love all the attachments too, they are all top notch and well made. I feel like I can tackle my entire house with this bad boy. AND it's lightweight! I use it on the lowest setting and it still picks up a ton. I don't think I'll ever need the high or medium setting. But I did try the highest setting for a few seconds and literally felt like the vacuum was ATTACHED to the floor, that's how hard it sucked (in a good way)!" —Matthew Mintun
Get the V10 from Amazon for $609.99+ (available in two styles).
2. An oil mister that'll perfectly cover all of your ingredients without getting your hands covered in grease.
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
Get it from Amazon for $15.99.
3. A charcuterie board set complete with knives and a hidden drawer to store 'em in and an extra circular tray — a must-have for the at-home chef who is forever prepping a delicious spread for their loved ones.
Promising review: "Really like how it comes with secure packaging!!! The quality of the cheeseboard is great compared to a previous one I bought. It’s easy and convenient to cut the cheese and ham using their cutlery set. And I really like how the cutlery set is stored in a drawer under the display portion of the cheeseboard which prevents children from reaching it. The drawer comes out completely for easier cleaning to get rid of the crumbs. I’m also satisfied with the bonus items that comes with the cheeseboard. I can use the smaller board for cutting small items and using the kitchen set for cooking and serving. Would buy one more for Christmas gift!!!" —Ruijie Duan
Get it from Amazon for $49.99.
4. A divided hamper that'll keep your lights/darks separate, so you won't have to spend any more time than necessary doing the laundry.
There's even detachable mesh bags inside so you can scoop your clothes right up and into the washing machine.
Promising review: "It does its job. It was exactly how it was pictured. It's very well made and makes the bathroom look great. It has a nice flat top to put things on the hamper when it is closed. Unfortunately this hamper does not do laundry or put clothes in itself." —Chris T.
Get it from Amazon for $49.96 (available in seven colors).
5. An adjustable stainless-steel shower caddy, to help you neatly store your overflow of products without crowding the edges of your tub.
I have one of these bad boys and I couldn't be more thrilled with it. My husband was able to adjust it so it's not too tall for me (I'm quite short). My bottles no longer sit in standing water. Simplehuman products never fail to impress me.
Promising review: "I’m really happy with these. I have one in each shower and they’re great for my particular issues that made normal shower caddies problematic. In one shower we have textured tile and the enclosed adhesive tabs work well for that shower. In the other shower those aren’t needed: the suction works well too! I’m so happy to have these now... I’ve been going crazy with the variety of cheap solutions I’ve tried to employ. Spend the money: soooo worth it!" —Acacia
Get it from Amazon for $49.99+ (available in four sizes).
6. An 8-in-1 kitchen gadget tool complete with a funnel, a juicer, a grater, an egg cracker, a shredder, a can opener, an egg separator, and a measuring cup. You'll never be without a must-have tool again!
Promising review: "I highly recommend this product to everybody! It's very convenient and it takes up less space. I just sit it right on the counter in my kitchen and just grab it when I need it. It's ideal for everything — it's perfect!" —jennifer h.
Get it from Amazon for $10.99.
7. A three-piece set of luggage for all the traveling you and your partner will likely do together — starting with your honeymoon, of course!
Promising review: "I loved the suitcases. They're absolutely beautiful, light weighted, and easy to maneuver. The space inside is great, you can easily walk around pulling the three of them at the same time, just so you know how easy they are to maneuver. I've only traveled with them once so far but the material seams to be durable. Great deal for the price. Totally recommend" —Bella
Get a set of three from Amazon for $189+ (also available in a set of 4 and 17 styles).
8. A mandolin with 30 different cut options you can use to create one of those Pinterest-worthy vegetable platters shaped like a flower or a rainbow — so fun!
Promising review: "This item is amazing for both its safety features and ease of use. I am a bit of a kitchen klutz and feel completely at ease and fearless with this device. I made my own potato chips — I sliced with my Dash mandolin and cooked in my Dash air fryer. The tasted just like the ones i get from my favorite Portuguese restaurant but I’m hoping they are much healthier. I honestly think this is a must have for all at home chefs." —Dawn
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in seven colors).
9. A Magic Bullet blender that'll help you recreate the green juice or smoothies you used to pick up on your way to the office.
I've been using my Magic Bullet almost every morning to make smoothies. I cannot believe how quickly it blends up ice and frozen fruit — it really is a magical product that I'm glad I put on my own wedding registry back in the day.
Promising review: "I use this almost every morning. This was my savior during the quarantine part of the pandemic when I was working from home. I was able to easily make smoothies for breakfast or a snack instead of eating junk. Blended quickly and easily, easy to clean, and came with so many cups and travel options I was able to continue my healthy habit when I went back to work!" —Marissa Vittorio
Get it from Amazon for $37.99.
10. A floral tea towel from Rifle Paper Co. to make your kitchen feel like spring time all the time and add some color to your day-to-day.
Get it from Rifle Paper Co. for $20 (available in four styles).
11. A Samsung TV that'll disguise itself as an elegant picture frame when it's not in use. A marvel in home decor and technology if you ask me and perfect for adding to your home's specific vibe.
This is the number one thing on my wish list right now — it's so cool and I'm constantly staring at it in stores. I love that it has the ability to transform into a piece of art but also act as a room's main source of entertainment.
Promising review: "This TV is badass! It’s more expensive, but that’s because it’s so much different than other TVs. If you hate the way normal TVs look, get one of these. It mounts flat against the wall and will look like a picture frame. The one connect box is great too. Just one cord comes down to a box you can stash somewhere that you connect all your inputs into. Definitely spend the extra money to get one of the other bezel covers. It really will look like a picture on the wall." —Chris Fulmer
Get it from Amazon for $527.99+ (available in six sizes).
12. A pack of oven liners to protect the bottom of your oven from any overflow/oozing and let you continue on pretending you're competing on The Great British Baking Show worry-free.
Promising review: "I expected to be happy, but I'm thrilled! Each mat is pliable and fits the entire width of my standard oven. When the mat is against the back wall, it extends up to but not over the front lip of the floor. On first use, pizza cheese and sauce dripped onto the front edge of the mat and onto that uncovered lip. The baked-on cheese and sauce slid right off the mat! Effortlessly! After I cleaned up the lip, I layered a second mat to cover the lip. These mats are so great that I almost want food to drip on them so I can show off how wonderful they are." —Artset Outset
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $12.99.
13. Gorgeous salt and pepper shakers and a matching tray that'll go as nicely with your kitchen decor as you and your new spouse do with each other 😉.
Get them from Anthropologie for $22.
14. Airtight food storage containers that'll quickly become one of your favorite kitchen accessories — they'll keep a variety of items like beans, cookies, candies, and dried pasta fresh and organized.
The set also comes with labels so you can easily see what's inside each container.
Promising review: "I’m not sure how necessary these are…but I LOVE them! I store uncooked noodles, snacks, cereal, uncooked rice, croutons, etc. in these. I feel like my pantry is more aesthetically pleasing and definitely more organized. These stack well with each other and save me space from oddly shaped boxes and bags I would have in my pantry without them. I don’t really know the benefit of having 'airtight containers' but I love the organization it offers and the food I store never tastes stale. For foods that need to be cooked (noodles, rice, etc.), I wrote the basic directions on the black stickers. I also used the stickers for the expiration dates of the food I store. I throw the containers in the dishwasher and clean the lids by hand. I’ll definitely be getting more in the future!" —Jess
Get a set of seven from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in three colors).
15. Organizer drawers you can use to transform your very own fridge into one that would bring Marie Kondo to tears.
Promising review: "I love these things so much. I just got my first apartment with my boyfriend and it looked so messy in our little fridge and now it looks really appealing and everything is easy to get to. The quality is so good, I’m honestly impressed; they’re very sturdy and the egg holder is so cute and holds 14 eggs!" —Faith Sperry
Get a set of six from Amazon for $25.99.
16. A fabric steamer that'll ensure you never head out the door looking like a wrinkled mess again — and you'll have to pick up your iron a lot less often.
My husband and I got this off of our wedding registry and it's one of the items I always suggest to couples making their own lists. It's been so helpful for getting wrinkles out of T-shirts, shorts, and formal attire. It's very slim so it fits easily into one of our closets and is very simple to use. I specifically like that it has a spot to hang the article of clothing while you steam it — no need to awkwardly hang your shirt on a door handle or the rod of your shower.
Promising review: "It heats up quickly and does a great job of getting rid of wrinkles. I didn’t expect such a quality steamer for the price. It works so well I rarely use my iron." —Lisa
Get it from Amazon for $54.99.
17. Luxurious sheets made of organic cotton you've likely always wanted but never wanted to splurge on — let a relative buy 'em for you!
Promising review: "When we bought our mattress we also bought all new sheets. These organic cotton sheets are very comfortable, quite luxurious, very smooth and almost silky. They fit the bed well and the fitted sheet stays in place. We liked them so much we have bought two sets and will probably buy more." —Victor B
Get them from Nest Bedding for $99+ (available in sizes twin–California king and four colors).
18. A rustic wooden stand to hold your cookbook or tablet so you'll be able to follow along with any recipe hands-free.
Promising review "This cutting board style wood cookbook and iPad stand holder is very nice! I like the style and the convenience of having it in the kitchen. It doesn't take up too much counter space and works very well for my cookbook." —Jynnifer
Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in three styles).
19. An aesthetically pleasing cutting board made of plastic scraps and renewable sugarcane that'll quickly become a staple in your kitchen.
Material Kitchen is an Asian-owned small business that sells lovely kitchen products — they were even featured on Oprah's Favorite Things 2021! Additionally, 50% of profits from the colors "To Pó-Po with Love" and "Reimagine Justice" go to Heart of Dinner and Drive Change.
Promising review: "In addition to the size of the ReBoard, I like the variety of color choices and the fact that the boards are made of recycled materials. Plus, they’re light in weight. I have given them as gifts to several people and everyone has liked them!" —Reshma S.
Get it from Material Kitchen for $35 (available in six colors).
20. An ultra thin electrical cover so you can enjoy full access to the outlet behind your dresser without adding a clunky, old school power strip into the mix.
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
Get it from Amazon for $24.95+ (available in five styles).
21. A pizza oven your entire family can enjoy — from rolling out the dough and adding toppings to watching it cook over the flame, this is one item you'll get praised for.
Promising review: "We've wanted a pizza oven for a long time. The regular oven only gets to about 550 degrees F and the BBQ doesn't cook the top of the pizza well enough. Then this amazing thing comes along. It delivers as promised. Ready to launch pizzas in 20 minutes. In fact, I found that lower than max temp worked perfectly and avoided the over-charred crust. The 16-inch size is nice to allow room to maneuver 12"–13" pies around to cook them evenly. I used the provided dough recipe with success so far. I look forward to trying some other crust types. If you are on the fence about this, listen: Buy it! Nothing easier than gas. Pizzas on my second try came as good as the best restaurant pizzas I've had. Keep the toppings light and you will love it too." —matthekman
Get it from Williams Sonoma for $599.95.
22. A shower curtain with a subtle design you can use to upgrade your bathroom's vibe without having to do something wild like install a new tub or sink.
Promising review: "This is a very pretty shower curtain! Can't believe the value for the cost! I actually expected something dingy but this far exceeds my expectations. Brightens up my bathroom very nicely and have received two compliments so far." —Rlandis
Get it from Amazon for $14.86+ (available in 30 styles).
23. A handheld garlic press you'll be ready to *rock 'n' roll* with right out of the package — don't plan to invite any vampires over for dinner.
24. An Our Place "Always Pan" that's basically eight different pieces of cookware in one. This multi-functional beauty does the job of a fry pan, sauce pan, steamer, skillet, saucier, nonstick pan, spatula, and spoon rest. Wowee!
Promising review: "Amazing how easy this purchase has made cooking! It has eased the stress of preparing meals and actually made cooking something to look forward to! You really don’t need high heat to make amazing meals, and the nonstick pan and easy cleanup are *chef’s kiss*! And the handle holder is an amazing bonus! This would make an amazing birthday, housewarming, or holiday gift for friends and family! Amazing investment for cooking at home!" —Alison S.
Get it from Our Place for $145 (available in six colors).
25. A Cuisinart Griddler, so you can make mouthwatering burgers all year long whether it's 20 or 90 degrees outside.
Using this lil' grill is so simple! Throw your meat on, close the top, and BOOM — dinner is served. I've been using one for years and it's wonderful for making grilled chicken, burgers, grilled veggies, and paninis.
Promising review: "Excellent addition to our kitchen. Good build quality, You can use this for a lot of different food but it is great for grilled cheese sandwiches. The griddle works well on pancakes and has plenty of heat to do the job. Easy and quick to clean." —Jazzperk
Get it from Amazon for $95.
26. A tabletop fireplace with removable glass so you can enjoy a freshly made s'more any time of year — yum.
You can order this with or without the sand and rocks. The only thing that you will need to purchase separately is the 2.6-oz. gel fuel cans, which you can get from Amazon. 1Man1Garage is a small business based in Nashville, Tennessee.
Promising review: "Soooo cute and easy to put together. We bought a clear spray to put on to protect it and because we actually really liked the look of the burned side. Boyfriend and I bought it to make s'mores for Valentine's. It was a perfect night in." —Bethany Schneider
Get it from 1Man1Garage on Etsy for $27.20+ (available in three styles).
27. A cutting board and strainer combo, because who wouldn't appreciate a two-in-one item that'll save 'em room in their kitchen?
Promising review: "This is one of my favorite things I have purchased for our tiny apartment! It's a pretty good size cutting board and I can see it fitting over most sinks. I LOVE the bowl inside that can let wet ingredients drain liquid directly into the sink. It's seriously SO nice to have this when you're limited on counter space!" —Atara
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two colors).
28. An acrylic dry-erase board for anyone who appreciates minimal decor — it'll blend right in regardless of whether you display it in your kitchen, bedroom, or office.
1801 & Co. is a Minnesota-based, family-owned Etsy shop established in 2016 that specializes in family wall calendars, chore charts, wedding signs, and more.
Promising review: "I love it! I got it so fast after ordering and it’s perfect. I love the sleek design for my small home office space. I can’t function at work without a dry-erase board but couldn’t find any that would look nice in my office space, which is in the corner of my master bedroom! Having functional office space but not LOOKING like an office in the bedroom is challenging but this acrylic board is PERFECT. The black pen that comes with it has very nice fine tip and erases without a trace." —Dawn Powell
Get it from 1801 & Co. on Etsy for $16.76+ (available in multiple thicknesses and sizes as well as four hardware colors).
29. A compact 8-in-1 spiralizer that'll grate cheese, juice fruits, cut ribbon, and *so* much more. This lil' gadget really does it all.
BuzzFeed editor *and* zoodle-lover Emma Lord is obsessed with this gadget:
"I recently purchased this because it was my cheapest option for making zoodles, and also because my apartment is the size of a shoebox and there was no room for anything bigger. I LOVE how easy it is to swap out the caps to do other things, too — I've started grating my own cheeses and feel very fancy. But mostly I just love that it's very safe to use (it comes with a finger guard!), super easy to figure out, very compact, and even has measurements on the inside of the cup if you're ever portioning things out for a recipe."
Promising review: "LOVE THIS. I absolutely love this. So far I've used the thicker spiralizer, two of the grater things, and then the juicer. I love how easy this makes keeping everything together. And it's sharp so it actually cuts through things without you needing to work super hard to do it. The only thing I don't love is that the spiralizers are a bit hard to clean, but I guess that's with all of them? Not sure, this is the first I've owned. But, overall I'd recommend it :)" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.98.
30. A lightweight linen box quilt you'll pat yourself on the back for adding to your registry once you feel how soft it is and how it really is the *perfect* weight for warmer weather.
I have this quilt in the bone color (it matches everything!) and cannot say enough good things about it. I'm a very warm sleeper and this quilt is my all-time favorite piece of bedding during the summer. It's light but heavy enough to keep me at a nice temperature when the air is blasting. It's extremely soft — I'm tempted to get it another a color just to mix things up this year.
Promising review: "Unparalleled softness, the fabric is likened to cotton that has been washed and line dried out in the fresh air over time, just like our grandparents use to do for that perfect feel of fresh coziness. It’s a keeper!" —Tracee N.
Get it from Parachute for $249+ (available in sizes twin–California king and six colors).
31. A cookie scoop, so all of your precious balls of dough will come out *exactly* the same size and look simply stunning before everyone in the house gobbles 'em up.
I have one of these and it has been a game changer when making cookies. I love that each one comes out the same size, making it easier than ever to know precisely how many will fit on my baking sheet.
Promising review: "Why didn't I have one of these in my kitchen drawer before?! I bought the medium-sized scoop originally to make a large batch of cookies for Christmas, but today it came handy when I had leftover batter from my banana bread recipe and it made the perfect scoop to fill a regular-sized cupcake liner! Now I'm thinking about getting the small size for my mini-cupcakes! Super easy and they came out perfectly uniform and totally beats trying to use a spoon! Handles have a nice silicone grip too and help with hand fatigue. :-)" —Michi K
Get it from Amazon for $14.94+ (available in sizes S–L).
32. A set of iridescent wine glasses you'll find yourself getting compliments on for years and years to come.
33. A stuffed waffle maker that'll make all of your brunch dreams come true — fill 'em with cream cheese, strawberries, chicken, or anything else your heart desires!
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
Get it from Amazon for $42.92.
34. A faux leather tissue box cover that'll transform your cardboard one into one worthy of a fancy hotel.
Madeinssun is a small business based in Seol, South Korea that sells home goods and fabrics.
Promising review: "I got a tissue cover in gray. It looks so modern and beautiful!!! It fits perfectly to a standard tissue box." —Kanako Yoshikawa
Get it from Madeinssun on Etsy for $12.90+ (available in 15 colors).
35. An ever-popular Instant Pot with so many uses you'll need to take a deep breath before deciding what to make with it first.
The Duo Plus replaces nine common kitchen appliances. It can be used as a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, yogurt maker, and egg cooker, with the ability to sauté, steam, warm, sterilize... and oh, it makes cakes too.
I got one of these via my wedding registry (almost four years ago, yikes) and FINALLY tested it out. It was definitely a bit intimidating (I blame This Is Us for my fears) but if you take the time to follow the initial directions it's not bad at all! I used it to make an at-home version of Trader Joe's butternut squash mac and cheese (seen above to the right) and it was delish! I definitely patted myself on the back for a job well done — and my very Italian husband was shocked at its ability to cook pasta in three minutes.
Promising review: "Perfect addition to the Instant Pot family. This little pot does the same incredible job as its bigger brother and sisters. Great for making the side dishes or smaller main dishes. If you haven't gotten on board the Instant Pot train, do not hesitate! This mini pot even makes yogurt. The benefits to pressure cooking are numerous, using the Instant Pot makes it incredibly easy. Can you tell I'm completely smitten with this little appliance?! It proudly sits on my counter and is used nearly every single day." —Prairie Princess
Get it from Amazon for $69.99+ (available in three sizes).
36. A bread-making machine to fill your home with the aroma of freshly baked bread — is there any better smell than that on a cold, wintry day? I think not.
Promising review: "I didn't want to spend a lot of money in case it turned out that we didn't like it. Well, we love it. We consume a fresh loaf every three days and it only takes me 10 minutes to measure the ingredients, add them to the pot and set it to go. Much faster. For reference, I have only made the basic 1.5-lb loaf set to light crust. I follow the instructions exactly except I substitute the water with warm milk. I made this modification after the first couple of loaves. They were good but just a little dry for our liking. Using warm milk, instead of water, turns out a softer loaf. I'm sure I will try other recipes down the road but for now, this is what I needed it for and it works wonderfully." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $71.99.
37. A toaster so aesthetically pleasing it might just encourage you to upgrade all of your other appliances. Apologies in advance.
It has SEVEN toasting options!
Promising review: "Is it possible...can a toaster be...this sexy? Yes. Absolutely yes. This sexy toaster fit right in to my farmhouse style kitchen with its cool mint-green color and retro vibes. I have made toast with it and a toasted sandwich with cream cheese and thin-sliced turkey — it was delicious! This toaster pops so quietly I missed it, twice!!! My toast was cold, but then I noticed this amazing thing also has a REHEAT button!!! So no worries if you miss that pop sound. It has four slots and they are the wide and long type meaning those fancier breads fit without squishing the sides of your slice. It has a bagel setting, as well as that nifty reheat button so your toast doesn't get burnt or overly crispy if you aren't hovering over it and miss it pop up and have to re-toast it." —Alice R.
Get it from Amazon for $59.99+ (available in three colors).
38. Honeycomb book ends that'll leave your bookcase *buzzing* with style — your beloved copy of Pride and Prejudice won't know what hit 'em.
Gemodus is a small business based in Boston, Massachusetts.

Get them from gemodus on Etsy for $20.99 (available in seven colors).
39. And a KitchenAid 5-quart stand mixer, because what wedding registry would be complete without one??? Good luck deciding with your parter on which color to get 😅.
This must-have gadget features 10 (!!!) speed settings, holds. a 5-quart bowl, and has a tilt-back head. Additionally it comes with a flat beater, a dough hook, a wire whip, and a pouring shield.
Promising review: "I bought this a couple of months ago and just LOVE it! I bake cakes for special occasions and was using a hand held mixer. Now I can add all ingredients, turn on mixer and let it do its magic while I do other stuff. It mixes so smoothly and airy! Every thing comes out perfectly! Is really great for making my frostings as they are thick." —sharen
Get it from Bed Bath & Beyond for $429.99 (available in 13 colors).
