Promising review: "It is easy to put together, sturdy once up, doesn't take up much space, and holds quite a bit. You can really load the laundry on if you're creative. I put stuff on hangers and hang on the sides — I use every inch of it. I love it. I put it in our room under the ceiling fan and stuff dries fast." —Alyson

Promising review: "My wife loves red wine. I don't. We're also poor. This means that when we open a bottle, she's had to do one of two things. 1) Drink it all at once or 2) Leave it open. The cheap stuff we buy goes bad pretty darn fast. This was a nice cheap vacuum that worked well and held a seal on a variety of sized bottles. My wife can enjoy a glass a day all week and not feel guilty about it going bad. I won't say that it's saved my marriage or anything like that, but it's nice little addition to our kitchen." —John

Promising review: "Sugru is so versatile and easy to use. I wish I had bought it sooner. I had to reorder two more packs after two days of fixing. It has saved me money from having to re-buy broken items (saving hundreds of dollars), and it helped restore and reinforce things that couldn't be replaced! That itself is worth the price." —Benjamin Bannister

Promising review: "It works. Simple as that. I have even ordered more because it works wonders in my vegetable drawer and also in my fruit basket. Before it seemed things would go bad so fast (three to four days). Now I can see veggies last two weeks some fruits a week longer than expected." —MFC

Promising review: "I absolutely love these. I haven't found anything yet that they don't work with. Right now I have them on my lotion, shampoo and conditioner bottles. I have always tipped my bottles over but they fall over and these help with that. I highly recommend these if you like to get the last drop out of your bottles." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "The Portable mini knife sharpener that works! This little tiny knife sharpener, sharpens like a pro. I was skeptical because of size and cost but i am impressed on how well it sharpens my stainless steal and ceramic knives. It fits in the palm of your hand!" — Lynshina Gray

Promising review: "I love this product. I was not a coffee drinker but was given the Keurig machine a few years ago and have slowly turned into a coffee drinker (two kids later) and I started going through K-cups quickly. I started to feel bad about how many K-cups I was putting into the landfill Every day. This is great because it reduces my impact on the environment and of course saves money on having to buy K-cups all the time." —LF

Promising review: "WOAH! It definitely works! Disgusting yet gratifying. Mine didn't REALLY start peeling until about day five and I'll admit I was really bad about pulling it off as I saw it coming as opposed to letting it slough off naturally, but it still worked great. As others have said, just make sure to soak daily for at least 10 mins. Made a big difference, especially as the skin started lifting off. No pain or discomfort at all (just don't force peel anything that isn't already coming off naturally). Even the tops of your feet and toes where you don't think it's that dry are going to peel, so don't be surprised." —Wildflower

Promising review: "My center stone is a white sapphire that gets dirty extremely quickly. I've tried taking it to different cleaners and even to mall jewelers, but they could never get it as clean as the jeweler we bought it from (who is over an hour and a half away). Because of this, my ring would get so dirty to the point that I wouldn't even want to show it off. This little machine with some Blitz Gem and Jewelry Cleaner made a HUGE difference — I ran it a handful of times because of how dirty it was and can't believe how shiny it is now." —Amazon Customer

They're also great at controlling moisture after a run when your shoes have basically turned into sweaty swamps.
Promising review: "My 13-year-old grandson loves really expensive shoes but doesn't love changing his socks! I had serious doubts about the effectiveness of these inserts (no spray has ever worked), but when you spend big bucks for shoes, you do what you need to. I instructed him to brace for the consequences as I didn't see new shoes in his future, but these things really do work!! Never in a million years would I have thought that anything could really absorb that funk!!" —Peggy R.

Promising review: "The case is very minimal, and doesn't ruin the integrity of the size of the phone by adding unnecessary bulk. It's a very easy product to slip on, and protects against drops pretty well without scratching or cracking the case. The volume control and lock buttons are easy to press over the case, despite the over molded plastic design. It does it's job at a low price and looks great." —vince.nyn

Promising review: "I have been drinking Dunkin' Donuts coffee every day for over 10 years. At $2.75 a coffee, that adds up. Trying to save some money and make my iced coffee at home, and this thing is worth it! I brew it overnight and have coffee for two days." —Heather Sullivan

Plus, way less messy than cooking oils and sprays.
Promising review: "These make baking so much more enjoyable. I am one of those people where stress-baking means it actually stresses me out and I end up half-screaming at pastry dough. But using these babies means I don't have to worry about sticking, moving, or any of that nonsense. I wait for cookies or pastries to cool and then they come right off — no issues with breaking or sticking. LOVE them." —Katrina

Promising review: "Not only are we saving energy because the lights aren't left on during all hours of the day and night, but we really like being able to walk into rooms with arms full of groceries, laundry, or anything else and have the room light up for us automatically. The installation was very simple and took less than ten minutes each, including removing the old switch." —Rob N.

Promising review: "On durability, my 83-year-old grandma left her antique 10" Lodge skillet to my dad, who passed away at 77 and left it for my 41-year-old brother. One of his kids will likely get it afterwards. If cared for, meaning not left to rust, Lodge pans do not wear out and just get smoother and better at cooking with time. Do yourself a favor and get this pan. I plan on leaving all mine to my 10-year-old pancake maker." —Slipflash

Promising review: "You want strong, tough, and absorbent? Here you go. These towels drink up water without falling apart and dripping all over. The area by my dog's bowl usually takes two or three paper towels to wipe up the mess, but it only takes one of these. And it is not sopping by the end. These towels clean extremely well and are eco-friendly. How can you go wrong? An excellent value!" —Kitt McComb

Promising review: "Love love love. I have arthritis and needed something lighter weight. So excited! Fit perfect in my pantry shelf. Love that i can put it away when I want or leave it out. The size is fabulous. I did have to adjust the beater depth. I'm not a huge baker but I'll admit I have used it 3-4 times a week. Way more than I thought I would!" —J. B.

Promising review: "It's lightweight (lighter than my iPad), easy to read off, and has a long battery life. In addition, the books on the Kindle Store are often cheaper than paper books, saving me money!

For plain ol' water, invest in a Brita pitcher if you haven't already (because duh, why buy bottled water all the time?).
Just remember to wash the DivaCup before you insert and after you remove it with DivaWash or warm water and a mild, unscented, and water-based (oil-free) soap. And empty and wash at least twice a day (a minimum of every 12 hours).
Promising review: "I've been using this cup exclusively for five years and I will never, ever go back to conventional feminine hygiene products. With the cup, there's no 'period smell.' There's no swampy feeling or leaks. My cramps have lessened. And after 60 periods it still works perfectly, so it has saved me sooo much money." —Rachel

Promising review: "We love a good, strong shower but we also feel strongly about not wasting water, energy, or money, so this shower head fits the bill. It has two flow settings and we leave it on the lesser of the two, but never feel that we are skimping. The designers really solved the problem of making a water-conserving fixture feel like an old-fashioned full-flow product. It was a cinch to install. After about a year of daily use, it continues to work like new. We observed a nice drop in our water bill when we replaced our old showerheads with these." —Thomas C. Jensen

And all you need is water! No need to buy replacement wipes or anything like that.
Promising review: "My kitchen and bathroom floors are absolutely clean with hardly any effort. In fact I've never seen my tiles shine so brightly, probably because there is no cleanser residue, since I just used water/steam. Some of the features that sold me were the attached scrubber and the variable levels of steam. And, as promised, it really heats up in just a few seconds. The cord is nice and long. The water cup is sufficient to clean a large area, depending upon steam level." —P. Aguilar
