Set comes with three bent straws, seven straight straws, two cleaning brushes and carrying bag.
Promising review: "I love these so much! The colors are gorgeous, they’re super sturdy, and they’re as thin as plastic straws typically are. I especially love the short, bent ones, as I have a toddler, and the long bent ones, because they’re almost like using a bendy straw! They’re all easy to clean, and even came with two straw cleaners, which is super convenient. I’m really happy with this purchase!" —Chloe G

Promising review: "I got this as a surprise for my boyfriend. He moved to my state from Texas for college. I wasn't sure about how it would smell, but I figured even if he wasn't a fan it would be neat as a decoration for his room. When I surprised him with the candle and he smelled it, he actually got very emotional and started crying because he said the smell instantly brought back so many memories of home. I don't know how they did it, but they managed to replicate the smell of home so well in this candle that it took my boyfriend back immediately. Definitely worth my money." —Bailey K

Promising review: "Overall, this new Kanteen has been engineered to perfection and I am definitely a huge advocator of it! Klean Kanteen finally caught up and passed its major competition by making the necessary modifications to its previous classic style. If you have an old, wide-mouth insulated Kanteen or any other type of steel bottle you should switch to this! You will not be sorry with your purchase, spend the extra money and acquire a bottle made with your lifestyle in mind." –Dylan

Promising review: "I have owned my Duo for over a year now, and I have used it at least five times each week. For cooking pasta, it’s a 'set it and forget it' appliance. Dump in pasta, sauce, meatballs, and water. Set the time and go off to fold laundry, pack lunches, or whatever else needs to get done before bed. No more standing over the stove or stirring. Roasts come out great, with potatoes soaking in all the amazing juices at the same time. Cheesecakes are easier than ever. The best part is that there’s no cleanup and no hot kitchen, like cooking with an oven. The stainless steel liner just goes straight into the dishwasher, saving busy families even more precious time. I have since added another Instant Pot to my collection and purchased five as gifts for family and friends." —Elissa Spicer

Promising review: "I have the black tray and it is constructed beautifully. The leather is of superior quality and looks great in my apartment. The tray fits all my everyday essentials and I couldn’t bro happier with this purchase." —Ditty25
Promising review: "Earlier this month, my TV entertainment included Dish 200+ channel satellite TV, 20Mbps turbo internet, Netflix, and Amazon Prime. After doing some research, I bought three Amazon Fire Sticks with the voice remote, cancelled Dish, upgraded to 30Mbps internet, added Sling 25 channels, added standard Hulu, and CBS All Access. Guess who still gets 96+% of the channels watched, added Prime Music and several hundred shows (that networks don't play) to all the TVs in the house, and saved over $700 per year compared to what I paid this past year? I did. I never thought of cutting the cord until I really looked into it all. Getting Amazon Fire Sticks are worth it and they work well....and once you get used to knowing what show plays where, it's a no-brainer. If you're like me, and you don't watch 80% of the channels you pay for, it's so worth it." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "This is the best eyeliner I have yet to try. I went to a water park and spent the whole day there. I got to the hotel and checked my eyeliner and it was still intact! It didn't fade even a little bit. I haven't used any other eyeliner since then. It also has the perfect size brush. I love it." —MV

Promising review: "Bought this at the suggestion of my dentist. I particularly like the pressure sensor and the indication that you are brushing too fast. The timer is also very helpful. The app itself tracking focus areas for brushing I find a bit inaccurate but it does help. Overall very pleased. It is a toothbrush that feels like what a dentist uses when I get a check up. Expensive most definitely but it gets the job done very effectively." —Richard

Promising review: "This record player really breaks all boundaries. I used to have a super old, plastic covered turntable that I bought for five dollars at a consignment shop. I decided that it's time that I splurged on a really nice player that was multifunctional. I spent weeks looking at different models and reading reviews. Everything kept coming back to Victrola's Nostalgic Aviator. The 8 in 1 is an amazing touch, as I have a lot of mix CD's and collectible cassettes that I scarcely get to use because I had to use so many different things to play them with. I just couldn't keep up with them all. I can play my records, CD's, cassettes and use Bluetooth on my phone if I want to listen to Spotify. The speakers are great and so clear, and when playing records you get a nice old-timey sound between songs. I just love it. The white wood is also such a retro touch and it really looks so good anywhere I put it in my house. Thank you for this product! I would recommend it to anyone who wants a reliable player to play their records without any worry that it will scratch them." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "These are way more comfortable than they have any right to be. I wear glasses and these have caused no issues whatsoever with ear fatigue. Also they sound pretty good. It took me a while to get used to the active EQ feature, but once I got used to it I really appreciate that at lower volumes you have much better situational awareness and can still enjoy the music." —bob lawblaw

Promising review: "I have a $120.00 faux fur throw and this one is so much better! I was concerned the lining would be rough but it is super soft. It is luxurious and so soft and cuddly. It is super thick but not heavy. I ordered two and am keeping both. Love this product." —k shopper

Promising review: "I like iced coffee with high caffeine. This fits the bill perfectly and is a joy to use and drink. My Starbucks monthly bill has come down considerably after buying this unit, and I'm ready to hit the ground running that much sooner in the morning. I especially enjoy the self cleaning feature and the ability to run it for smaller or larger cup sizes. Truly a premium product." —David T.
Promising review: "I adore this journal. It allows me to write down daily memories or thoughts and puts my current self in a good mood. I'm excited to run across my old notes as the years go on! I take this with me on travels in a storage bag. There's something special about writing on the plane, in a new city, on a beach, etc. — any time you just feel like you're experiencing a special moment." —Mikayla

Promising review: "I LOVE my Comfy. Be aware that it is short. I’m 5’2” and it falls above my knees. However, the materials are lush, cozy, and warm! The large cozy hood is amazing. The oversized sleeves are spacious and are perfect to pull my arms in. I have a leather couch and during the winter I usually have one blanket under me, behind me and two on me (yes, I run my heater, lol). Now all I need is my Comfy and one blanket for my lap. I bought the blue and it’s beautiful! It’s great to jump up off the couch and not have to remove a bunch of blankets, get chilled, then have to bundle up all over again!" —Athena

Promising review: "Love these bath bombs! I wanted to give them all a try before I wrote a review. I was pleasantly surprised with the lavender and sandalwood because normally I don't really like lavender. However it wasn't too strong and there was a good balance between the scents. I liked all the bath bombs; they were good quality. I also liked how there wasn't any bits or bobs (herbs, petals, etc.) in the bombs because those can be hard to clean. The bombs don't leave residue, nor do they stain the tub." —Amazon Customer
