1. A pair of ceiling fan charms so you'll finally be able to tell which one controls the fan and which controls the light without always pulling the wrong one first.
Promising review: "This is the definition of 'product you didn't know you needed because you didn't know it existed.' I was FOREVER pulling the wrong chain on our bedroom ceiling fan. (Want the light off? Oh no...now the fan's on high. Need to change the fan speed? Eek...now you're in the dark.) They're much better quality than I expected. They're actually quite heavy-duty pull chains, and they add a bit of fun to the decor." —LHD
Get them from Amazon for $5.88+ (available in six styles).
2. An RFID-blocking travel wallet with a whooooole lotta pockets and storage spaces for passports, boarding passes, credit cards, IDs, coins, pens, and more! Now you can keep everything conveniently in one place so there's no more scrambling to find important belongings while traveling. It even has a cellphone pouch!
Promising review: "I absolutely love this wallet. I needed a new travel wallet, and this holds everything I need all in one place, and it still closes nicely and stays flat! I can fit my boarding pass, passport, ID, credit cards, money, checked baggage tickets, receipts, and more in it, yet it doesn’t bulk up or look like an overstuffed mess. It's just amazing. The description says it only holds US money, but I just used the boarding pass flap to hold all my Japanese Yen (¥), which are larger. I didn’t use the zippered pocket for coins as I much prefer a separate coin purse for that sort of thing. I definitely recommend to anyone who travels a lot!" —Anthony Luu
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in 37 colors).
3. A clever coffee pod tray ingeniously designed to let you take advantage of underused space and store your pods under shelves, cabinets, and countertops!
Promising review: "This space saver K-Cup is wonderful! It is attractive and keep my counter clutter-free. It is lightweight but very sturdy. I would highly recommend this for anyone wanting to gain valuable counter space." —christine h
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
4. A jewelry cleaning stick capable of getting inside the nooks and crannies of your favorite jewels so they can sparkle and shine once again.
Promising review: "I use this to clean my engagement ring every week — sometimes every two weeks so I can REALLY see the difference, lol. It does a better job than the expensive liquid cleaner I bought from a high-end jeweler and it’s much easier and faster to use. Can’t recommend enough!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $9.48 (also available in packs of two or three).
5. A Cat Dancer toy no one expects their cats to love as much as they inexplicably do.
Honestly, I could spend all day LOLing at the review photos. And in case you're wondering what this thing is made of that drives cats so wild... it's literally a springy steel wire and rolled up cardboard — that's it. But 29,000+ reviewers LOVE it *and* it's under $5, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
Promising review: "This little toy is a miracle! Was skeptical at first since it’s such a simple design but my cat (who usually only plays for a couple of minutes) was obsessed with this toy from the moment I opened the package. Even more, he won’t let it out of his sight and brings it to me so he can play some more. Will be buying a lot more of these in the future!" —Amcooper2006
Get it from Amazon for $3.99.
6. Or an interactive magic cat ball for anyone whose feline friend never gives them a moment of peace. This smart toy will move around randomly, automatically change direction after colliding with something, and shut off after 30 minutes in case your cat loses interest.
Promising review: “My cat is lazy, and a bit overweight. I wanted to find a toy that would encourage her to run around the house and exercise, and this does just that. At first she was a little hesitant to play, but after watching it zoom around the house for a while she got the hang of it and now 'hunts' it. She will chase this toy all over the house with ease. This little toy never gets caught or stuck on anything. The battery lasts forever and doesn't take too long to charge either. It's a great toy for a picky cat.” —Amber Mobley
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in six colors).
7. An unbelievably fast and easy-to-use Yonanas soft serve maker capable of turning any frozen fruit into a creamy, sorbet-like dessert in just minutes — *without* having to add any other ingredients! Plus, when you're done, all removable parts can go straight onto the top rack of the dishwasher, and the base simply wipes clean.
Promising review: "I saw one of these in action at a friend's house like five years ago and thought it was just a made up memory, because making ice cream out of solely frozen fruit seems wild. But when I saw a TikTok about it, I immediately went to Amazon and bought it. Literally this was the BEST decision of my life. I cannot believe still how amazing this thing is! It makes the creamiest, best-tasting fruit ice cream ever. It’s easy to take apart and clean, and super easy to use." —DMCKAY
Get it from Amazon for $34.69.
8. A drain cover if your tub is too shallow to even bother trying to enjoy a bath in. This'll give you a few extra inches of toasty water, without causing your overflow drain to make that obnoxious gulping sound that's the *opposite* of relaxing.
Don't worry, it doesn't block your overflow drain completely but rather moves it up several inches — there's a 1-inch hole at the top of this cover that still allows excess water to safely drain.
Promising review: "Can I give this thing 10 gold stars? I have a four foot bathtub (so small it should be illegal) so I used to bring a towel in the tub to cover myself just to keep warm because the water was so shallow. I've used this drain cover three times and now I literally bask in my Epsom salts baths. The silence is wonderful; I used to seethe at hearing the precious bath water drip-drop down the overflow drain. Buy it, hands-down a peace preserver." —M. Smith
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in nine colors).
9. A Revlon one-step hair dryer and volumizer for anyone who wants salon-worthy results with minimal time and effort! It's much quicker and easier than using a dryer, flat iron, or curling iron, because it uses special vents that help your hair dry faster without becoming damaged.
Plus, it's under $50, which should make you second guess spending $500+ on a Dyson Airwrap.
The oval brush design smooths the hair and the round edges create volume — leaving you with a salon-worthy blowout at home. It also has two heat and speed settings and a cool option. While it's designed to work on all hair textures (reviewers with 2b–4c hair mentioned it working for them), some reviewers with 4a-4c hair say it didn’t work the best for them. For a brush designed with coilier hair in mind, check out the Revlon One-Step paddle brush!
Promising review: "I wanted to try this because I had tried the Dyson hair tool and loved it, but didn’t necessarily want to pay the $500+ to buy one. This product works great and is budget friendly. Has a cool setting and then low, medium, and high for heat. I noticed my hair gets frizzy if I don’t do the heat but I do have bleached blonde hair. My hair looks and feels great! This product is very easy to use! I love it and would buy it again!" —TbearZ86xoxo
Get it from Amazon for $39.89.
10. An adjustable mug organizer set here to revolutionize the way you store your mugs. The expandable legs make it easy to securely stack mugs of different shapes and sizes so you can take advantage of unused vertical space in your cabinets.
Promising review: "I was wondering if it works on mismatched mugs and it does!! It cleared up a lot of space and makes a FANTASTIC addition to my kitchen tools to keep things organized!! Must have! Will buy again!" —J.D.
Get a set of six (to organize 12 mugs) from Amazon for $24.99 (available in three colors).
11. A genius meal planning pad so you'll have one less decision to make every day. It also includes a detachable shopping list so you can avoid having to make an extra trip to the store to pick up that one ingredient you forgot you needed.
Plus, it's got magnets on the back so you can easily hang it on your fridge! My very organized mom swears by these. They're made by a small biz that's all about pretty planners.
Promising review: "This simple tool is just what I need to get dinner organized for each week. Deciding what to cook one night at a time can be stressful for me, and the added time of running to the store for the day's missing ingredients can really add up. Sometimes we'd just give up and go out for dinner. This product has saved me time and money." —minmom24
Get it from Amazon for $6.95+ (available in five designs).
12. A bug bite suction tool reviewers say can help reduce itching and swelling from a mosquito, bee, or wasp sting by literally SUCKING the venom right out of your skin!
The suction can be pretty strong, so use caution and try a small amount of suction first and work your way up if necessary.
Promising review: "Oh. My. Goodness!! Where has this been all my life? I have always been a bug magnet — I can be in a group of people, and I’m the only one getting bitten. This morning, I went to a plant nursery and forgot to put on bug spray. On the 10-minute drive home, I could feel the welts rising on my calves from all the mosquito bites. The first thing I did when I got home was open my brand new Bug Bite Thing and get to work. By the time I finished treating my eight mosquito bites, the itchiness had reduced from distressingly distracting to a relatively minor irritation. Now, an hour later, I am completely itch-free!! I’ve not only found my saving grace, but everyone’s stocking stuffer this year. The product sounds too good to be true, but the relief is *real*!" —Philip J. Priest
Get it from Amazon for $9.95 (available in three colors and a two-pack).
13. A set of TikTok-famous Crayola Globbles, which are colorful balls you can squish, stretch, and throw to help relieve stress! This fidget toy will stick to pretty much any flat surface you throw it at *without* leaving behind any messy residue, so toss 'em at the walls, ceilings, and more!
Check them out on TikTok!
Promising review: "My daughter is 4 and plays with these DAILY! YES they do attract dirt and hair HOWEVER they are so easy to rinse off, it's not a big deal! We took these to a family gathering and ended up giving two away because they were SO loved! The two we gave away went to a 12-year-old and my 19-year-old brother. They discovered throwing them at the ceiling fan and watching them shoot across the room which was pretty entertaining! None of these have busted or ripped and they are definitely NOT gentle with them! I will definitely be buying more!" —Heather Hambrick

14. Hidden bookshelves that'll turn your prized book collection into a bookworm's dream display so you can admire them daily and show them off to all your guests.
Promising review: "These are so much fun! We ordered the small size, which fits standard hardback books (approximately five to seven hardbacks in my experience). They're a great way to add some extra storage to our very small home, and we've placed them in our hallway so people ask us about them all the time. I'd highly recommend!" —LaBuenaVidaMere
Get it from Amazon for $14+ (available in two sizes and in sets of one or three).
15. A pair of prism spectacles ingeniously designed to help you comfortably recline without struggling to watch TV, read, or use your devices.
Promising review: "I didn't know what I was missing until I used this. My life is now complete. If you enjoy comfort and lazy binge-watching but don't care how ridiculous you look wearing these, then you have found Nirvana. My glasses fit in these just fine. Takes a minute to get used to, then it becomes your reason to live. Expect people to laugh at you, but forgive them for they know not what they are missing." —Michael Boyd
Get them from Amazon for $15.88.
16. A HyperChiller device — it'll turn any hot or cold non-carbonated drink into an iced one in *less than 60 seconds* WITHOUT watering it down. It's great for turning steaming hot coffee into iced coffee immediately, but you should also try it out with wine, cocktails, and other beverages you might wanna chill quickly!
Promising review: "Got this for my boyfriend who hates hot coffee but makes his coffee with the Keurig. This little thing fits right on the freezer door, cleans really easily, and cools down whatever you put into it so quickly. We have even used it to cool down wine and other spirits that aren't carbonated. It beats adding ice to a drink you don't want to water down!" —J_Thill
Get it from Amazon for $17.49+ (available in five colors).
17. A small, surprisingly powerful, desktop vacuum you can use to quickly and easily slurp up all of the crumbs, dust, and other filth from your desks, tables, countertops, computers, and hard-to-reach areas.
Plus, it's wireless and rechargeable, so you can bring it anywhere!
Promising review: "Holy geez, where was this all my life? This is the perfect crumb catcher/sweeper for your table. Have little ones that leave toast crumbs everywhere? Or a husband that drops little bits of stuff? This will vacuum it all up and voila clean table! It’s a nice compact size and can pick up sizable crumbs easily." —Kestrel
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in two colors and two styles).

20. A pack of lightweight glue-on foam ceiling tiles that'll make it look like you had your entire ceiling redone when you did no such thing. Say goodbye to your ol' popcorn ceiling and say hello to your space's whole new persona.
Promising review: "If you’re even considering doing it, JUST DO IT!! I can’t even begin to tell you how easy this was, and the end result is mind-blowing! When people come over (we’re remodeling our newly purchased home built in 1865), their jaws drop. We put this in the sunroom/eat in kitchen area. We love it so much we’ll be doing it in the bar area of the dining room.
"When you actually get them on the ceiling and look at your finished product, you’d never guess it’s styrofoam. Caulking between the tiles was crucial to giving its overall look. That was the most difficult part. My advice (from watching hours of YouTube videos and doing research) is to find the center of the ceiling and work your way out. It took us two hours to do a fairly large space. We definitely overestimated how many it would take, but I’m glad we had extra on hand in case we messed one up. Also — make sure your blade is SHARP!" —Steven
Get a pack of 48 from Amazon for $169 (available in seven colors and larger pack sizes).
21. A germaphobe-approved smartphone sanitizer designed to simultaneously sanitize *and* charge your phone! Now you can forget about trying to wipe down every crevice with different cleaners and anxiously wondering if they'll mess up the screen or if it will seep into any openings.
PhoneSoap is a small business that creates products to help you keep your phone germ-free.
Promising review: "I love that I can put my phone in there after I get home and it is sanitized in no time at all. I work in health care and it makes me feel better about having my phone at work." —Tammy
Get it from Amazon for $44.95+ (available in five colors).
22. A dishwasher-safe unicorn pool float tea infuser so it'll feel like there's a pool party happening in your mug — making even the most boring days a little more fun. Just fill the bottom with loose-leaf tea and let it swim!
Promising review: "LOVE THIS!! I’ve only tried the infuser with one kind of tea (blue butterfly pea flower) but it was delicious! Will need to buy at least one more to bring to the office! Plus it looks so adorable in my Hocus Pocus mug. 😊" —Anna
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in three shapes).
23. A "we're boring" banner that'll make you cackle every time you see it, and will low-key alert your house guests to the fact that you are probably *not* boring.
FYI most of the products from this shop are made to order and thus, they take a little extra time to ship — keep that in mind when making your purchase!

24. A folding car trunk organizer to hold all of the things that have been chaotically tumbling around in your trunk for way too long.
Promising review: "It was just what I needed for my messy and unorganized truck! I wanted something not too bulky, but just the right size to help me reorganize my trunk. This product did that for me. I was also concerned that it would move when I drove, but luckily there is Velcro on the bottom that secures it in place while you drive, and sure enough, it did just that! This product does not take up a lot of space and gives you the right amount of measure to place other things like groceries and a suitcase. I am completely satisfied and content with this product! I wish I had it all along!" —Neese

Promising review: "I had a nicer-looking, more expensive version of this in my cart originally. This was one-third of that price and I'm so glad I went with this one. Its got a sturdy backing on both pieces (piece with pockets and a piece that goes between mattresses), one large pocket closest to the bed, and three decent-sized mesh pockets. I have it between my mattress and box spring." —Danielle

27. A Chef IQ smart pressure cooker you'll wanna use every time it's your turn to make dinner. You can connect it to your phone via the Chef IQ app to control and monitor the settings and discover guided recipes that'll send precise parameters straight to the cooker. It does most of the work, using a built-in scale, smart sensors, auto pressure release, 1,000+ presets, and more to make cooking a breeze!
Here's why BuzzFeed Shopping editor Melanie Aman loves this:
"I love my Chef IQ Smart Cooker for a lot of reasons but mainly the smart–auto pressure release, so I no longer have to cross my fingers and hope my dinner doesn't explode in my face when I release the pressure valve by hand. It also has a handy built-in scale, which is super useful when a recipe calls for grams and the American education system once again fails me. On top of doing everything your old pressure cooker could do plus a whole heck of a lot more, my Chef IQ Smart Cooker just looks a lot sleeker, meaning I can leave it out on the counter without it being an eyesore."
Get it from Amazon for $143.05.
28. An acrylic plant hanger if your plant collection is steadily outgrowing the surfaces in your apartment.
Indoor Window Gardens is a small, family-owned business based in South Carolina. The acrylic shelves come assembled, and you can secure them with a single fastener.
Promising review: "Not only do these shelves look amazing and give me so much more room for my plants but the customer service is amazing! I forgot to order extensions with my order so I contacted the shop and they helped me by making a special listing for the extensions. They placed them in my original order so everything came together. If you’re looking for a window shelf this is it!!" —Jamie Miner

It's powered by three AAA batteries (not included) and has seven LED color options. There's an on/off button as well as a flashlight on the bottom!
Promising review: "This umbrella ROCKS! It was a gift for my husband. It dries quickly so he doesn't have to carry around a dripping umbrella. The 'saber' aspect of it has the option to choose a color or even have them alternate. They all look really vivid and beautiful, especially at night. The flashlight on the bottom is really helpful at night when we're walking our dog, too. My husband gets tons of comments on this umbrella, and I plan to buy more in the future. Really, it's the coolest umbrella ever." —TrivialShark388

My Farmhouse Essential is a small business based in Gainesville, Georgia. They create tons of handmade wood work home decor!
Promising review: "Fits the crate perfectly, doesn’t slide around but easy to move when needed. It changes the entire dynamic of the room.

31. A hands-free pot stirrer because spending a half hour stirring a pot of soup doesn't sound like the best use of your time when you could just let this magic device take over.
32. A brilliant flexible universal tablet stand to hold up your tablet so you can keep your hands free! It's designed so you can use it while sitting, lying down, or even on uneven surfaces. Plus, the legs fold for easy storage *and* it kinda looks like a lil' robot pet who just wants to help out!
BTW — Tablift is a small business created by Scott Blevins after he had trouble finding a tablet stand for his bed. This is compatible with Apple, Samsung, Microsoft, and most other tablets (but you may have to remove the case in some cases).
Promising review: "I literally have never reviewed a product I've bought on Amazon before. This product, however, is worth the time. Works perfectly for my iPad while laying in bed. We are part of the tiny house community, this leaves few options for most stands. I do not have anyplace to clip a stand, and forget about floor space for the larger ones. This suited my needs perfectly! It also has several spots for different view in angles. Last but not least, it folds up to a very manageable size!" —Tara M. Riley
