1. A collapsible over-the-sink strainer for all the fruits and veggies in need of a cleaning and all the fresh-cooked pasta in need of straining. Give it a shake and then easily fold up and store flat in kitchen drawers or cabinets.
2. A plastic, nine-shelf shoe rack to organize and store up to fifty pairs of shoes (depending on style) and keep your collection looking like your own personal Aldo.
3. An acrylic glass cosmetic organizer with nine compartments and five drawers that'll keep all of your makeup from making a mess of your bathroom sink or wherever you choose to glam it up.
4. A Henckels 12-piece knife block set including stainless steel bread, chef's, paring, santoku, and steak knives for slicing, dicing, chopping, and cutting any type of food that gets in their way.
5. A stain-resistant, easy-to-clean, brown area rug to keep indoor hardwood floors looking new and outdoor porches and decks looking stylish.
6. A set of 12 super durable and dishwasher safe, handled glass mason jars so you won't have to worry about breaking the good glassware when entertaining outdoors. Or fill them with decoratively with things like your favorite flowers. They're not just for weddings anymore!
7. A seven-drawer storage chest, because every home needs a "junk drawer" for that mess of things that never quite seems to have the perfect home. The clear drawers will let you see exactly what's inside before you have to go fishing for that nine-volt battery or pair of tweezers.
8. A Le Creuset five-piece, dishwasher-safe, stacking, stainless-steel measuring spoon set that will always come in handy even if you don't bake or cook often. Worst case scenario: you're all out of clean spoons and don't know what to do. Voilà! You've got five back-ups!
9. A steel wall-mounted pot rack with 12 hooks for hanging your heaviest pans and whatever other cookware that your already over-packed cabinets or countertops can no longer handle.
10. A stackable, backless bar and counter stool so you'll always have some extra indoor or outdoor seating that won't take up a ton of space when you're not using it and will never go out of style.
11. A microwave- and dishwasher-safe, six-piece, Pyrex bakeware set that doubles as food storage for leftovers. The glass dishes are scratch-, stain-, rust-, warp-, and tarnish-resistant, so do your worst.
12. A lightweight Bissell bagless upright vacuum cleaner with two brushes, an extension wand, and a crevice tool for sucking up every type of mess around your home (including pet hair) at a super affordable price.
13. A Novogratz metal, multi-tiered plant stand with laminated particleboard shelves to help you level-up your home greenery game with room for pots and plants of multiple sizes.
14. A collapsible and expandable garment rack for aiding overflowing closets and switching seasonal clothing in and out of the rotation, especially longer, heavier winterwear.
15. A square storage ottoman that, by day, looks like any mild-mannered footrest, but, also by day, is actually a hidden storage facility for not-always-necessary living room accouterments (like blankets or pillows). Don't worry Otto-Man, your secret is safe with us.
16. A four-piece, hammered copper kitchen canister set for storing flour, sugar, coffee, pet food and treats, or whatever scoopable sundries you're known to use on the reg. They're also "ant proof" so feel free to pack these on your next picnic to test that claim out.
17. A set of four stainless-steel, waterproof solar-powered LED pathway lights that are tough enough to survive being run over by the lawnmower and should last up to 10 illuminating years to keep you from tripping on your front lawn.
18. A free-standing, metal countertop spice rack, because proper seasoning of your food is always in season and know you'll never have to go digging into the deepest depths of your kitchen cabinets only to discover that you're all out of thyme.
19. A microwave- and dishwasher-safe, three-piece glass measuring cup set (one, two, and four cups to be exact) that should be able to handle all of the mixing and measuring you'll ever have to do because Pyrex glass is built to last!
20. An entryway storage bench, because the best way to keep your home clean is to stop making a mess the minute you walk through the door. Coats, shoes, hats, dog leashes; they all go here so you always know exactly where to find them.
21. A collapsible, wicker laundry hamper for keeping your dirty clothes confined to one singular space that isn't your floor. Handles make it super easy to carry when the washing machine is elsewhere.
22. A set of three dishwasher-safe, steel Rachael Ray nonstick cookie pans that aren't just for cookies but for baking, roasting, or just re-heating any foodstuffs in your oven. But, also, cookies.
23. A rust- and mildew-resistant, hanging shower caddy with suction cup mounting for keeping shampoo and conditioner bottles, bars of soap, razors, and scrub brushes from taking over the very limited (and slippery) shelf space in your bathroom.
24. A Novogratz powder-coated metal bar cart that's meant for rolling three shelves' worth of booze through your home, but can be co-opted for nearly any other storage needs (think beauty and grooming products or cleaning supplies).
25. A stainless-steel Kitchen Aid slow cooker with a dishwasher-safe ceramic insert for those hearty meals, likes stews and soups or large cuts of meat, that take their sweet (and savory) time to reach maximum levels of tastiness and yield maximum quantities of food for the week.
26. A stainless-steel, over-the-sink drain tray that rolls up for super easy storage when you're not using it and doubles as a trivet for cooling off piping hot plates and pans.
27. A freestanding, chrome metal, over-the-toilet storage shelving unit for vertical storage and organizing in the most important room in your home. It's much more fun to call it an etagere, though. Say it with us now, e-ta-gere.
28. A Ninja professional blender with dishwasher-safe parts that totally crushes it all the time (bro), whether it's protein shakes, frozen drinks, purees, or dips and spreads.
29. A stainless-steel freestanding paper towel holder so you'll never violently rip off half a sheet or unravel an entire roll ever again thanks to its weighted base and tension arm. No paper towel will ever go to waste ever again!
Much like Keanu Reeves, these products will never become useless, they will age gracefully, and they will always be there for you even when you forget about them.
