Promising review: "It’s a perfect decor piece in our new apartment. It arrived after two days and in perfect condition. It doesn’t need watering or any maintenance, perfect for a busy person like me. You can place it anywhere you like since it doesn’t need sunlight and it's not temperature sensitive. Also, it makes our space fresh and homey. Would definitely order again." —RJA5130

Promising review: "It's so fluffy! As soon as I got it I threw it in the dryer with some dryer sheets and when it came out it was fluffier than before. I threw it on my bed and my dog immediately jumped up on it and hasn't left since. He enjoys it and so do I." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I really like this shower caddy. I have no complaints with it. It fits all of my shower essentials and has held up very well in my shower! I like how you can adjust the baskets if needed. It was exactly what I was looking for. There isn't anything really like this that I have seen anywhere else. The baskets are also very easy to clean. You just remove them and wash down with soap and water. They also have little holes in the basket so that water is not collected, which is a must!" —ERyser

The Instant Pot is a seven-in-one multi-functional cooker (pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, it sautes and browns, can make yogurt, steams, and warms) and likely one of most incredible things you will ever purchase for your home.
Promising review: "Bought this for my college student daughter who moved off campus into an apartment. Space was limited but she wanted a rice cooker, a Crock-Pot, and a pressure cooker — this fit the bill all in one. She loves it and uses it more than the stove. I am a huge fan as well of pressure cookers, been cooking meals in it for years." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I have a weird skinny window in my house where no normal window covering works. People walking on our community trail can see up into our upstairs bathroom when the light is on and it's dark outside. Not a good plan at all. So I used this window film and cut different sized circles and placed then on this window to interrupt the view into the house. Worked perfectly! Very easy to use." —Marsgard

Promising review (for mini memory candle): "I love the concept of homesick candles, the beach cottage is absolutely what you except a beach house to smell like. I’m definitely going to be purchasing the larger size once I use the mini up." —Deeanna Hausske
Promising review (for classic home state candle): "This candle smells beautiful! It smells like springtime in Missouri. Just like the flowering trees that we had in my backyard when I was growing up.

Promising review: "Love this rug! I received it in less than two days and it came very safely packaged. There wasn’t any damage to the item. The rug is soft and doesn’t shed one bit which is a problem I’ve seen with other rugs so I was very delighted. I bought it for my bedroom but I love the way it looks so much that I might buy another for under my mirror as well. Highly recommend, especially for the price." —Priscilla

This speaker comes in tons of cute color options to match your decor, a full charge can play music for up to 24 hours, and the 360 degree design allows for a quality listening experience from every direction.
Promising review: "The sound quality from this speaker was surprisingly good. I have this speaker next to my bathroom sink because I wanted a speaker I could hear while I am in the shower. For the price, I didn't expect the sound quality to be so good. The speaker is loud enough for me to hear it while I am in my bedroom as well. I like this so much I just ordered a second speaker. The Bluetooth connection works really well too." —Michael

Promising review: "Beautiful shelf for an amazing price. I have mine on carpet and tried to set it up so that it tilts slightly to the corner to avoid it ever falling forward, but I made sure to load the heavier items on bottom and lighter on top. I have NO fear whatsoever that mine will tip over. Seriously one of my favorite purchases in a while! Thank you to this company for making an affordable yet aesthetically pleasing item!" —Liana Sepulveda

Promising review: "These pillow cases are so soft and cozy! The color is true to the picture, a nice deep red, and the material itself is cozy and velvety. The little pompoms are actually very much secured to the pillow, and I've never experienced any of them coming loose, and I am using them daily. The zippers are very well hidden without being difficult to use, too." —Al

Promising review: "These amazed me! I opened up the box and saw such amazing vibrant colors. When I picked them up, they had some weight to them which is always nice. They also had little stoppers on the bottom so they wouldn’t slide around. My favorite part is that they were easy to pick up off of the flat surface because some coasters are impossible to pick up and these are not; they are great! I highly recommend! Well made, affordable, and gorgeous!" —Michele Norton

Promising review: "I had done my research on salt lamps and this brand is listed as one of the top five on the market. They did not disappoint! I bought three and they are the real deal. Absolutely gorgeous and well crafted! They come with one bulb already installed and two extras! The touch switch is super easy to operate and big, making it easy to feel for as well. You definitely will NOT be disappointed with your Levoit purchase! Also, if you’re sending as a gift, they are VERY well packaged/cushioned and come in beautiful red boxes. Looking forward to the incredible benefits these lamps will have on my family!" —Greg dossey

Promising review: "So Pinteresting! I used this adhesive film to turn two cheap IKEA tables into less cheap looking IKEA tables because I'm not made of money, but I would like others to believe I am. Super simple to use and you get a ton of it for the price. I was really pleased overall. The pattern actually looks like marble, not a weird pixel-y repetitive pattern so that's great as well. Also it was delivered same day which was miraculous as my DIY initiative tends to fade approximately 48 hours after I discover a project I want to do." —Spencer House

Promising review: "These bookends are perfect for my space! I absolutely love the unique look of each one. They are heavy/can support my books without slipping, and they look good too. One issue I had was that the green dye marked up my white shelf but nothing a Magic Eraser couldn't fix. Overall I'm extremely satisfied with this product!" —Skye

Promising review: "I am obsessed with all the cute ceramic sloth items Urban makes and this one is so adorable. It holds your incense perfectly and looks cute while doing it, and if you are afraid of it getting messy just buy a small tray to put it on — it is small enough that it’ll fit well. I love this!" —Megan_hatch
