Seriously, how???
Because one of the most annoying things is when something designed for holding clothes...can't even keep the clothes on it!?!?! These velvet versions actually do their heckin' job.
Promising review:"How have I lived my life without these? These hangers work great. I have a lot of shirts that don't stay on regular plastic hangers. I had to resort to using clothes pins to keep them on, which resulted in weird and annoying lumps and bulges in the fabric. I have replaced all of my plastic ones with these velvet hangers. Not only do they work well, but now my closet looks neat and tidy. Win win." —Mel

Promising review: "For years, I've been told I should get a silk pillowcase because it's great for skin and hair. I finally bought this one and it's one of the best purchases I have ever made for myself! The quality is great, it feels awesome against my skin, my hair looks fantastic in the morning, my skin looks better than ever, and I'm just super impressed! Do yourself a favor and buy one — you won't regret it." —Lesanna Dahlen

It's also made from recycled paper to help you achieve your goal of living a lil' more sustainably! There's even an activity at the beginning to help you brainstorm habits to track, and each month starts with a themed page (for example, "sleep," "gratitude," and "finances") with some words of wisdom and a suggested habit to try.
Promising review: "I wanted to reduce stress and nail down some habits, and I've always done better when I can see progress tangibly. I'd been eyeing this calendar for some time, but was unsure if it was worth the money. I decided to go for it. SO glad I did. It has some 'homework' pages at the beginning to help you focus in on your goals, but mostly it's the cleanness and ready-to-go nature of the monthly calendar pages that have worked for me. It's helped me be more disciplined AND narrow my focus so I'm not worrying about doing everything under the sun each day. I liked it so much that I bought a second one for a friend. Another friend saw me using it and also made a purchase. I'm really happy I made the leap." —Flight of Stars

The whole journal is based around Joseph Campbell's storytelling framework called The Hero's Journey, which many of your favorite tales probably follow.
Promising review: "This journal is amazing. It combines my childhood obsession with activity books and adventure games with my current need to be an adult. I've been waffling over finally trying to get in shape, and this journal was what pushed me over the edge to actually do it. I actually got excited about exercising for the first time in my life, because now I'm viewing it as my own personal quest for glory!! The book is intuitive and easy to fill out. It combines proven methods of success with the fun of a good fantasy novel. I am obsessed. I can't wait to finally slay my dragons!" —Anna D.

It's top-rack dishwasher safe!
Promising review: "As an avid wine drinker, I must say this is my favorite thing ever. I was finally done cleaning all the dishes one night and I didn't want to dirty another glass. I had a bottle opened and I figured, hey let me give this Guzzle Buddy a try! It seems like it aerates the wine before it hits your mouth and it tastes MUCH better when drinking it from this glass than right from the bottle. It's also a great gag gift for wino friends! I overall enjoyed my purchase! :)" —Shelby Bassetti

Promising review: "I ordered this posture corrector because I slouch too much, and when I try to stand up straight, I feel like I overcompensate and it gets tiring. The reason I like this product is that when I have it on, it doesn't restrict my movements like a brace with a plate might. I don't feel like I have to put effort into standing straight, so I'm not getting fatigued even after wearing it for a full eight-hour day. I'm really pleased with my purchase — it's well-designed and easy to use, and i think will eventually fix my bad posture." —mdantes

It also comes with a travel pump, so you can use the bags for packing and reseal them when it's time to head home! Not sure which size to get? For context, the medium size claims to fit 8-10 sweaters and the large size can hold up to four pillows.
Promising review: "I’ve been having a hard time finding space to put away my winter clothes to make room for summer and decided to try this space-saver. I’ve never tried vacuum storage before, and am very pleased and now I can’t imagine another way to put away off-season clothes. I used my own vacuum cleaner as I didn’t think the pump that it comes with would be as effective, and it was super easy and quick. The hardest part was folding the clothes lol." —Giselle

Promising review: "Even better than I expected and very smartly designed. Bought the this for a two- to three-month motorcycle trip through Central America, and as a guy who spends much of his time living out of a pickup truck all over California, I seriously wish I had bought this years ago. The fact that the sealed vinyl compartment is detachable really seals the deal." —Scott
Get the small size for $29.95 (available in three colors) and the large size for $39.95 (available in three colors) both from REI.
It's quiet and has a replaceable filter (it comes with two) to keep the water fresh. It's also got three different settings so you can see which your kitty likes best.
Promising review: "This product has given my senior cats a new life! I was reading up on senior cat care and a water fountain was suggested, as older cats don’t drink enough and get dehydrated easily. My 15-year-old cats are more energetic, happy, playful, and spunky after four days of using the new fountain. They love drinking from it and so far it works really well." —Leslie Phillips

You can take the purring part out when it needs a bath!
Promising review: "My 3-year-old male rescue kitty has gone through a lot of change and anxiety in his short life (which began as an abandoned kitten on the streets). I saw this online when searching for my fur babies’ Christmas gifts this year and thought, why not give it a shot? Let me tell you just HOW MUCH he loves his new cuddle buddy! He sleeps with it for EVERY nap and evening slumber now, and even pets it like it’s his own baby! I watch him fluff, gently stroke, and pull his new stuffie close to his chest before drifting off to sleep...and it warms my heart to see how much it comforts him and how much he loves/cares for it. Sooo recommended for cats of all ages." —Jennifer

"But I don't like the pre-set meals that come in kits," you whine. Well, Home Chef actually lets you swap out and customize some parts of the dishes they offer, like changing the protein. The system also works week by week, so you can change how many meals you get each week and easily take a break from the service. The available menus can fit all kinds of tastes, schedules, needs, and skills, from "Ready in 15" to "Slow Cooker."
Meals start at $6.99/serving.
It even comes with two extra ink cartridges!
Promising review: "Promising review: "being an engineering student I wanted a solid pen that had everything that i could ever in need without having to reach for my bookbag, this pen did that. If I need to tighten a bolt in a project to make an adjustment I no longer have to walk across the room I can just unscrew my cap and there's my screw. best part I finally have a ruler I wont lose you'll end up using that ruler more times than you think, overall great pen." —manuel espino

Promising review: "I used this mask right before an event. OMG, this stuff is amazing! It leaves my face so smooth. My makeup application was flawless and glowing! It smells so good too, very soothing. My makeup lasted pretty much all evening without having to retouch. I don't know if it really blurred pores, because I don't really have that issue, but overall it just makes your face looks so good and hydrated. I just ordered more!" —Jules78
