Just plug your straightener into it, hit the button to set the timer, and forget about it.

    You can set the timer on this for one, two, four, or eight hours, or just put it on hold.

    Promising review: "I'm very pleased with this. I use it mainly for at-home hair styling. I often like to leave my styling wand on for last-minute touch ups before leaving early in the morning but, in haste, I often get on the freeway and worry that I forgot to unplug it. No more worries with this attached to the plug. I wish I'd gotten it sooner." —JDubya

    2. A twist-bottom flower vase with a drain hole on the bottom that'll make replacing the water a breeze. You'll also be able to easily trim the stems. keeping your bouquet fresh without making a total mess.

    Amaranth Vase Company is a small biz that was started to make maintaining  a bouquet of flowers an easier process. 

    Promising review: "Most genius vase. The flowers last so much longer, because you can change the water and snip the stems to keep bacteria from growing and killing your flowers. It’s also beautiful as a vase itself, super modern and chic." —Eliezer Labkowsky

    Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in six colors and two sizes). 

    3. And a moisture meter so you can avoid over- or under-watering your plant (RIP to my little succulent, idk what I did wrong).

    Promising review: "This item is great. I can check how wet my plants are down where the roots are. So no more over-watering! It is very accurate. This works great!!" —Terri Carlson

    Get it from Amazon for $7.97 (available in three colors).

    4. A plant-based cooking oil solidifier because pouring oil down your drain is no bueno and could cause problems in the future. This is a quick, easy way to dispose of that oil you have no clue what to do with. Sprinkle the powder into the leftover oil while it's hot, let it cool, and then throw it out!

    FryAway is a Latine woman-owned small biz founded by Laura Lady who specializes in planet-friendly ways to dispose of oil. 

    Promising review: "Quite impressive. After making some fries, we added a packet to the hot oil and stirred a few times. Maybe 10 minutes later, we checked the pan, and the oil had solidified. Using a wood spoon, we easily removed the solid and put it in the trash. I will always make sure to keep a pack of FryAway in our pantry. Highly recommended." —Ryan O.

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in two styes).

    5. An overflow drain cover for a warmer, deeper bath. I like my baths like I like my wine glasses: filled to the brim.

    Promising review: "I received this yesterday; installed it last night. Took my first bath with it today, and boy, does it work. I did not rate whether it’s easy to remove or clean, as I haven’t done those yet, but I don’t see why either would be an issue. If you’re an avid bath-taker like I am (baths are needed sometimes to warm up during our cold Wisconsin winters) and are tired of the water level going down as quickly as you’re trying to fill it, I definitely recommend this. My only complaint is that I should’ve bought the sooner… I’ve spent years and years using strips of old rags, sponge materials, etc. to try to keep the water from seeping out (which results in smelly, moldy material), but this works like a charm." —HeartStar14

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in nine colors).

    6. A set of two SockDocks because you're not imagining it — the washer is eating your socks. That's the only logical explanation as to how the left one mysteriously always disappears on laundry day. Plus, this bad boy will make matching 'em so much easier when it comes time to fold and you won't sit there like Grandma Aggie and Gort matching socks for hours in Halloweentown 2.

    SockDock is a small biz founded by Kevin Bunn in March 2017 after he got sick of losing socks while doing laundry. 

    This baby holds up to nine pairs of socks and can also be used for masks, headbands, gloves, scarves, onesies, mittens, lingerie, delicates, and other small items.

    Promising review: "For the last six years, I have lost literally dozens of socks. No one would fess up to having them stuffed in their drawers or crammed underneath their beds. So, it must be the sock gnomes if you are familiar with Family Guy. I have been using the SockDock for about a month, I've washed about three or four loads and guess what, not one sock lost. It does take some commitment to load soiled socks on the tree, but it's worth the effort. They come out of the wash, and you just hang them up and pull fresh ones off. I highly recommend if you can commit yourself to the process." —S. Peterson

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in four colors).

    7. A game-changing microwave pasta cooker so you can make some bomb pasta without doing all that work. I meannnn, just look at that reviewer's spaghetti below — looks freakin' gourmet. You just fill this baby to the indicated line for water, heat it in the microwave for *about* 12 minutes, and boom, noodles for alfredo! Is this what Hannah Montana meant by best of both worlds?

    BuzzFeed Shopping editor Katy Herman LOVES the Fasta Pasta and had this to say: 

    "Two of the most basic facts about me are that 1) I love pasta and 2) I'm lazy as heck. Cooking pasta is pretty easy, even for someone like me who rarely cooks. But still, it's a little more than I want to do when I'm feeling hungry and/or burnt out to wait for the water to boil and have to wash the pot and colander when I'm done. What I really needed was something that could have the whole process done in under 15 minutes and that I could just toss in the dishwasher.

    Enter the Fasta Pasta (great name btw). I'm really amazed by what a game-changer it is, as well as how user-friendly it is. It comes with a booklet of instructions on how long to cook/how much pasta and water to use for all different shapes of pasta, plus there's an extended list on the product's website. All you have to do is measure out the pasta and fill the tub with water to the appropriate fill line, then microwave it on high for the noted amount of time. When it's done, you pop on the lid, which has convenient handles. I was nervous about using my bare hands to take this out of the microwave even with the handles, but amazingly it doesn't get that hot! The lid also has a built-in strainer, which is perfect for both helping you fill the Fasta Pasta with a precise amount of water and for straining once the pasta is cooked. Then voila! You've got pasta! Check out my full Fasta Pasta review (#2), and yes, please cast me in an infomercial about it."

    8. A set of Bed Bands since you sleep kinda wild and have had to adjust your sheets 13 times this week. These babies keep your fitted sheets in place so it no longer has to be an Olympic sport, ya know?

    Amazon

    Promising review: "I have a pillow-top and pillow-bottom queen-sized bed that is a little too small for king sheets, and with queen sheets, I have battled to keep the sheets from popping off. I have tried everything! I was about to try to customize some king sheets because it was so frustrating. Then I saw this. It works. I was shocked. My sheets have not popped off once. I ordered this in February and it is May now — and they have not popped off once! They used to pop off EVERY...SINGLE...NIGHT. To say this is life changing is not an exaggeration. Such a relief to be able to sleep through the night without ending up in rumpled sheets." —TinkerbellAPixie

    Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in five colors and in multipacks).

    9. A Take-n-Slide medication tracker so you can easily remember if you took your meds in the morning. Stick this thingy on and simply slide the little indicator over after you take your pills. It's also reusable so, scoreee, you can peel it off and stick it to your next medication bottle, easy!

    See it in action on TikTok

    Promising review: "How did I live without these? If pill boxes are just not working for you or your loved ones, and the automated dispensers are prohibitively expensive, do give these a try! I’ve been using them for a week now and have a lot of relief in seeing for certain whether the pill has been taken." —GingerSnap

    Get a pack of five from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors).

    10. A hard-boiled egg timer because you're tired of boiling eggs, cracking 'em open, and finding that the yolk is still runny. Throw this into the water and this little guy will change colors to indicate how cooked they are. So whether you need 'em soft-boiled for some ramen or hard-boiled for deviled eggs, they'll be *egg-cellent* every time.

    Promising review: "Is this 100% necessary? No...however, it does make one thing a little easier for me in the morning. Instead of watching the pot and waiting for the water to boil to start the timer, you can just put the NobleEgg in the pot with your eggs, start the heat and just wait for your eggs to be done. Can't wait to give some as gifts!" —Bailey Boo

    Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in multipacks in various colors).

    11. An octopus-shaped blackhead remover that'll lift all the clogged dirt and oil out of your pores. It's like your own personal Dr. Pimple Popper that totally extracts your whiteheads and blackheads. Goodbye Regina George pores.

    reviewer's octopus stick opened

    Promising review: "After just two days of use, this adorable little octopus has done wonders for me, smells great too. Here's how I used it: I wore down the stick just a little to where the texture from the salt is visible, scrubbed around on my face so there was plenty of product, then I used my fingers to gently massage all the gunk away. Rinse, pat dry, and enjoy the softness. Highly recommended for people with sensitive skin like me." —LuckLocust

    Get it from Amazon for $11.88.

    12. An under-cabinet lid opener because that jar of pickles has been sitting there unopened for like two months because you can't get it to even loosen up. Welp, this thing will give you a helping hand when you need it. Soda, nail polish, jars...no match for this bb.

    Oh! And screws are included!

    Promising reviews: "I resisted getting one of these because who needs more gadgets that do not work?? This, however, WORKS! It took me two minutes to install to the underside of my over-sink cabinet. The screws were long enough to hold it but not so long that they popped through the other side. I live alone and had stopped buying anything in a jar or bottle because a combination of arthritis, Dupuytren's, and a hand injury made it impossible for me to open these types of containers any longer. Now, I can hold the container with two hands, insert it into the V shape and a small twist opens it right up. I highly recommend it." —Kathryn

    Get it from Amazon for $17.95.

    13. A migraine stick to help relieve that terrible migraine you get after a rough work day. This cruelty-free, vegan little stick is made with essential oils such as peppermint and lavender and can also help with nausea. Just rub a little on your forehead, temples, and back of neck for help with your headache troubles. So after you spend the entire day at your screen, this stuff will be right by your side to get you some relief.

    Also! Learn more about aromatherapy from John Hopkins.

    Promising review: "I have no earthly idea why this works, but it brought me back from the dead after an 11-day headache. I found it worked better to rub it all over my hot pack, zap it in the microwave, and wrap it around the base of my neck. The aromatherapy was great, and it dulled my headache enough to restore my will to live." —Katie B.

    Get it from Amazon for $12.95.

    14. satin curling rod headband for beautiful, juicy curls on those days where you don't wanna sit and bother with other tools. So like, every day, right? Stunning curls with minimal effort.

    This also comes with two satin scrunchies. So, I bet you're thinking *how does this baby work?* Start with slightly damp hair. Position the curling rod to the middle of your head and secure it with a claw clip then begin to wind one side around the curler. Once you get to the end of your hair, wind it with scrunchies and do the same on the other side. Take it out the next morning and enjoy your voluminous, gorgeous curls!

    Promising review: "I was a little skeptical but finally decided to jump on the heatless curls bandwagon and I'm glad I did. I have very fine hair and it is a struggle to get it to hold a curl (if you know, you know!). But this really does work. I learned a couple of keys — my hair has to be slightly damp, almost dry, and I have to wind it tightly. When I do this, I get beautiful curls that last. I'm very pleased; it's not super uncomfortable to sleep in, and I've noticed way less frizz and more volume in my hair since I've started using this. If you're on the fence, go for it!" –Amazon Customer

    15. A door draft stopper to keep that cold breeze OUT of your nice warm home. Your heat won't escape in the winter and your AC will stay inside during the summer. Block out lights, smells, noises, drafts — keep it all out!

    It can be used for both interior and exterior doors made of wood, metal, plastic, glass, and more.

    Promising review: "So easy to set up! From the other reviews I was concerned but I don't really understand how this was an issue. All you do is peel tape and adhere to a CLEAN and DRY door. Also looks great, I don't even notice it. I had a huge gap under my door. I could smell and hear everything from the hallway. Smells, drafts, and sound all are less of an issue now." —Brit Suavé

    Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in four colors).

    16. A magnetic ironing pad because you're sick of pulling out that big ol' ironing board. Stop going out wrinkled and snap this baby right onto your washer or dryer to make the dreadful task of having to iron your clothes a bit less dreadful.

    Promising review: "If you're like me and live in a space that doesn't have a ton of room, let alone space for a big old ironing board, this is the perfect solution. This mat easily sticks with the magnets to the top of the dryer. It's a great space-saving solution. If you're looking to minimize, this is what you want!" —JD

    Get it from Amazon for $13.87+ (available in two sizes).

    17. A silicone clip-on strainer that'll make draining pasta, veggies, and everything else a total breeze. Dishwasher safe, check. Transferring process eliminated, check. Easy to use and store, check. What's not to love?

    Promising review: "This is easy to use and now that I’ve had it a few weeks, I don’t know how I have lived without. Makes draining anything in water so much easier! Highly recommend." —Melissa L.

    Get it from Amazon for $9.48+ (available in 11 colors). 

    18. A pack of motion-activated toilet night-lights so you can actually see the toilet when you've gotta make a midnight run. It's motion activated and will turn on and stay on for two minutes when it senses motion so you don't have to stumble around in the dark. And I mean, a glowing toilet's pretty cool. If I come over and your toilet glows, I'd be freakin' amazed.

    reviewer's video showing their toilet bowl changing colors

    Promising review: "I absolutely love this product. Especially because with a husband and a son, they tend to sprinkle on the toilet seat in the middle of the night. With the color set to any bright color (like white, yellow, green, or blue) it illuminates every single sprinkle on the seat! You will no longer have a bottom wet with pee in the middle of the night! When I purchased this I bought a case of AAA batteries thinking I would have to change them often (with six people in the house they get used often). However I have not had to change the batteries once in a few months! Also the sensor is super sensitive so it turns on as you come through the door, or even a little before. Just a great product all around. Definitely recommend for households with children, you won't have to leave your bathroom light in all night anymore either! #MomWin." —Angela

    19. A set of silicone stove-counter gap covers because you dropped a piece of chicken in that little crack a month ago and have thought about it every day since. No more obsessing about if you'll attract bugs and pests because you dropped yet another crumb into that extremely impossible-to-reach place. You may even sleep a bit better at night with this.

    Promising review: "My daughter recently shared a TikTok video of this item, and it's a treasure! We highly recommend this, as it eliminates the difficult task of cleaning between the stove and counter/cabinet." —allycat

    20. A 3D-contoured sleeping mask that comes with a set of ear plugs so you can totally block out the world and fall sound asleep in the dark silence you crave. The contoured spaces for your eyes help to relieve pressure and the memory foam is just *chefs kiss*.

    Promising review: "I'm a light sleeper and use an eye mask and ear plugs every night. They help me sleep better because I don't have dark curtains at home and my street is quite noisy. The last eye mask I bought was a cheap one I found at a dollar store. I'd have to keep buying new ones from time to time because they would tear apart pretty often. This is a game changer. It's high quality and does the job much better! Firstly, I didn't really feel like I was wearing a mask because of the design. It's super comfortable and blocks all light. The earplugs block sound, so I can finally get restful sleep. Totally worth it!" —Nisheeta Jagtiani

    Get the set from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in seven colors).

    21. A pair of beaded fan pull extenders because although you've had the same ceiling fan for forever, you still don't know which chain turns the light on and which turns on the fan. I mean, does anyone have that memorized? They also add over a foot of length to your pulls so you don't have to get on the verrrry tips of your toes to reach 'em.

    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 a much better quality than I expected. They're actually quite heavy-duty pull chains, and they add a bit of fun to the decor. (When you notice them — most of the time, who even things about a ceiling fan pull chain?) As an added bonus, my infant daughter loves staring at them while I change her diaper or jammies. I tap them to make the chains swing, and it's instant fascination, which helps make my job easier!" —LHD

    Get it from Amazon for $5.88+ (available in three finishes and in multipacks). 

    22. A portable door lock to keep your mind at ease on all your solo trips this year. Or even use it at home! Any extra bit of security is always welcome, right? One this baby is on, no one will be able to get in, not even with a key. It's small enough to throw into your carry-on, fits in almost all doors, and is easy to install and remove, no tools necessary!

    Note: This can get flagged with going through security, so you may want to put it in an easily accessible place in your checked bag to be safe.

    Promising review: "My apartment door has a deadbolt but no lock on the door handle. The latch is also misplaced so if it’s not dead bolted anyone can just push my door open. Took a few tries to get this right but makes me feel much more secure, and it’s easy to use when you get the hang of it! I also take this with me when traveling as it fits almost all doors. Definitely recommend." —Anna

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in multipacks).

    23. A set of two reusable Wad-Free tools you might recognize from Shark Tank that'll make laundry day a bit easier on you. Reduce drying time and prevent clothes and sheets from getting all tangled up in each other. Being an adult is literally finding loopholes to making life easier, and these certainly do the job.

    Wad-Free is a woman-owned small biz that was launched during the pandemic by Cyndi, who had a wadding problem and no available solutions, so she created her own!

    Promising review: "THIS ACTUALLY WORKS!!!! I saw a TikTok about these and decided to order. Sheets balling all up in the washer and dryer has been a pet peeve of mine for forever. I was super skeptical of these, but I tried it, and it works as advertised! It’s a little on the expensive side IMO, and that’s kinda holding me back from purchasing a second set, but they really do work." —StrangerThings

    Get a set of two from Amazon for $19.99 (also available in a four-pack).

    24. A natural sweater pill remover because your favorite sweater is starting to look old and everyone can tell you've worn it once every two weeks for the past three years. It's made from upcycled car windshield glass and once you brush this baby over the affected areas, all those unsightly fuzz balls on your knit sweaters, towels, beanies, blankets, and even furniture will *poof* be gone!

    BuzzFeed / Maitland Quitmeyer

    Celsious is a Black woman-owned and environmentally focused laundromat and online shop (OMG 😱) based in Brooklyn, New York.

    BuzzFeed Shopping Editor Maitland Quitmeyer says: "Like many of you, I've been living in sweats and PJs during WFH full time. And it's made me revisit the state of some of my loungewear. Take for example, this college sweatshirt [pictured above] I wear all the time — as evidenced by the rather EXTENSIVE pilling all over it. So when I saw this pumice-esque sweater stone (it's made from upcycled car windshield glass — how cool is that?!), I decided it was worth the try. We've featured electric pill removers (mostly the fan-favorite Conair one) many times, and they really work. But sometimes you're looking for a little more detail or control — that's where this stone comes in handy.

    I was able to navigate around the contours of the logo on my sweatshirt with ease, removing pills using the corner or the entire flat bottom in a few quick strokes. It truly took no time at all — the sweatshirt was done in mere minutes. The only thing I would note is that particles do "fall out" of the stone, so do your pill-removing on a surface that's easy to sweep or vacuum up at the end."

    Get it from Celsious for $13.50 (originally $15).

    25. A flexible 2.6-foot hose attachment that can be used with your vacuum to suck out all the lint and debris that's been piling up in your dryer. You'll be so shook by all the gunk that this thing pulls out, you'll wonder how the heck your dryer didn't break down on you. But I mean, thank God, right? Cuz that'd probably be an expensive fix.

    Promising review: "Honestly, we are speechless! We are excellent about cleaning the lint trap after every load of clothes. We even clean the lint vent outside. But nothing could have prepared us for the amount of lint and gunk trapped in the vent tubing! How we have never had a fire, we have no idea. We vacuumed forever all the way up the vent tube, which we could have in no way done without this item. The suction power was unbelievable! We could not believe how bad the tubing was clogged. Just look at the picture. We removed about 3/4 of a kitchen garbage bag size of lint and gunk! It was amazing and embarrassing! It’s SO inexpensive, but it could literally save you from a house fire! Anyway, just buy it. Excellent value! You won’t be sorry!" —Brian Mattix/Elizabeth Bodnam

    Promising review: "These are a game changer. Toys flying underneath the couch has been such a frustrating problem to deal with over the years, but no more! These are so clean and aren’t obnoxious to look at either. They fit seamlessly against the couch and no tripping hazard!" —Shopping Connoisseur

    Promising reviews: "So I saw this on TikTok, and as an esthetician, I’m all about skincare. I got the product today and wanted to test it out in the evening when my skin is most oily. Holy moly, what type of witchery is this? It literally absorbed my oily T-zone. 🤯 I’m impressed. My skin type is combination but more on the oilier side. This thing is like an oil blot, but made of volcanic stone. I love that we can take it apart to wash and reuse. Def would recommend!" —Frances

    28. A mess-free microwave s'mores maker because there's nothing better than a s'more! It's got a well of water that'll ensure the marshmallow and chocolate melt at the same time without overflowing for some ooey gooey goodness without needing a fire burning! Perfect for the kiddies.

    Promising review: "This is a very cute gadget. I saw this on a TikTok and fell for it lol. I'm glad I did. My kids and I have so much fun making instant s'mores. They're done in about 30–40 seconds with literally no cleanup. The marshmallow doesn't melt over so you basically can just run hot water over it to remove a few crumbs from crackers and be done." —Shawna G.

    Get it from Amazon for $14.91.

    29. A bleach-free weekly shower spray that'll clean your shower till it sparkles, but that's not all, friends. This baby also prevents future soap scum buildup. Spray it, let it sit for 8–12 hours (so probz spray before bed), then wake up to a totally new shower.

    Promising reviews: "This is a really nice Bluetooth headband. I love the soft fabric, the ability to manipulate the headphones to the right spot, they stay in place, and the controls in front are easy to work. No problem connecting to my phone for workouts or listening at night. My husband's set from another company accidentally got washed, so he used mine and loved them so much I bought him his own.

    Promising review: "I got the three-pack, one for me and two as gifts to friends who are trying to reduce waste. We all love these lighters because a single charge really does last, we don't have to buy any more disposable lighters for the foreseeable future, and the length is perfect for hard-to-reach wicks. Getting used to how to place the arc on the wick and understanding that there was a safety timeout took me a bit to get used to but wasn't frustrating." —Salim

    Souper Cubes is a family-run small biz that specializes in better frozen meal prep and food waste reduction! Their products are BPA-free, dishwasher safe, and have fill lines on the side of the compartments for half and full cups. 

    Promising review: "LOVE LOVE LOVE. My freezer is so much more organized now. Gone are the days of having to defrost an entire bag of chicken broth for one cup for a recipe. I now have perfectly portioned 1/2-cup and 1-cup blocks ready to go. They fit easily in freezer bags, take up less space, and make me incredibly happy. There was a lot of attention to detail put into the design and I particularly appreciate the wire inside the rim that holds everything steady — no more worrying about spilling all the liquid on the way to the freezer. Just a fantastic product all around. I purchased this and a cheaper version from another manufacturer at the same time but returned the other product. This one is definitely worth the added cost." —Kate

    34. A handy dandy condiment fork that can be attached to a jar because you love a good pickle but absolutely hate having that juice smell on your fingers.

    Promising review: "Great kitchen item. Forks are great to get pickles out of the jar, but if you have kids/lazy people (lol) you know that dirty hands are going into that jar. 😉 This has really prevented that from happening. It comes with two different rings to fit whatever size jar, a stabber holder, and a stabbing stick." —Amazon Customer

Great product, and have already bought many as gifts. They don't seem to work on tomatoes, but they are great with bananas, apples, kiwi, pears, grapes, plums, peaches, lettuces, mushrooms, and many more fruits and vegetables." —Jacki

    Promising review: "The Buddeez Sandwich Bread Dispenser is great! It does exactly what it was intended for. I live alone and I don't quite go through bread often enough before the last quarter section of the loaf starts to go stale. I was originally looking for something to put a loaf of bread in as a shell for my vacuum sealer, that would keep the bread from getting crushed from the pressure. This dispenser solved all of my problems. Thank you!" —DRMcQuaig

    A single charge provides over 10 hours of usage.

    Promising review: "I bought these based on price. I wasn't sure if I would like wireless headphones or if they'd stay in my ears and I didn't want to drop major $$$ until I knew for sure. I figured for that price, why not. This brand is awesome!!!! Sound quality is on par with my regular headphones, battery life is amazing and overall durability is great. They come with a bunch of different soft pads for the ear part so you can find the ones that fit you best and keep them in your ears well. I love these headphones. I dropped one once, it was in the driveway for three days and still worked perfectly when I found it. I ended up buying several pairs of these as stocking stuffers. Can beat these for the price. I've had no connection issues either. I can get about 100ft from the device it's connected to before it drops. If you're thinking about it, do it. You wont be sorry." —Crystal Inchiocca

    Promising review: "I bought this because I have a cat with a sensitive stomach and in a house with almost all hardwood flooring, he chooses to only throw up in the room with all WHITE carpeting. The carpet had so many stains from futile cleanup attempts, I thought it was ruined. However, I bought this steam cleaner, gave it a try, and the carpet looks brand new!! It was almost fun cleaning up the stains and watching them disappear in seconds. Steamer is super easy to use, very portable, and stores away nicely in my laundry cabinet. Absolutely recommend to anyone ready to give up on their stained carpet." —Amazon Customer

Go ahead, get your snack on.

    It's also double-sided! One side heats and reseals and the other is to cut bags open!

    Promising review: "Love this little gadget. Believe it or not, I saw this on TikTok as an 'Amazon product you didn’t know you needed.' Since my older sons are on their own at college, they eat a lot of pre-packaged items so we got one for each boy as a stocking stuffer. They were actually excited to try them out so the boys went in our pantry and opened new bags of chips and crackers just to re-seal them. Lol! It works pretty good for such a small device. The cutter even works so the bags that are mostly empty aren’t as big and don’t take up as much room. My husband wants one for our house now. Guess we’re getting another one." —Can7

    Promising review: "This product is life changing!!!! I saw it on Shark Tank years ago and immediately bought two. I fell in love with not having to search for my dropped phone among old french fries and gooey substances while painfully squeezing my forearm into a crack half the size of my forearm. This product saves every fallen object with an easily accessible pillowy landing. I have bought it as a present for every single person I care about!!!!" —Jamie V

Wish I would have bought this sooner, but now I know for the next one." —Geraldine Brophy
