"Best $50 I ever spent." —me, these reviewers, and maybe you
Promising review: "I've struggled with the #2 for the last couple years. I've gone from Defecating Toxic Avenger to 'Dear GOD! I feel like I'm passing the Twin King Guardian Statues'. It's been a sphincter nightmare. No matter what I tried: prunes, more water, high fiber, Taco Bell, even White Castle — nothing was working. Usually, in a three-week interval, I'd get very sick and spend three to four hours going to the bathroom nine or ten times. After my sphincter would be tender and I'm damn near positive if this had gone on, it would be the end of me. Then I saw this. Decided to go ahead and plunk down the $25. By day two of using it I started to feel better and my cramps were gone. I swear to god, when I go on my next road trip, I'm taking the damn thing with me, and IDGAF if my friends laugh at me. This damn thing may have saved my health and possibly my life." —DJ_Malsidious

Promising review: "This is so convenient. I bought this because I don't like using a big blender and cleaning it everyday. With this blender I just need to put in the ingredients and press the button. Plus the USB charging is great. I can charge it anytime and the charge lasts for a long time. I just charge it once a week at night and I am set. It makes great smoothies. The blade works great and really blends. Plus the color is really nice too. I can put the bottle in my purse, it is light and the lid doesn't leak. Five stars." —Ainee A.

Promising review: "We have tried to minimize the amount of stuff taking up our kitchen countertop, so we got rid of the dish rack. I still wanted the ability to dry dishes and big pots/pans after cooking, so I got this rack. Thing is AWESOME. It is extremely versatile and rolls up neatly for storage under the sink or wherever else you'd want to store it. It repels water and makes cleaning it very simple. Gunk doesn't want to stay on it and anything that does stick to it comes right off with a light scrub and some dish soap. It doesn't smell at all and is lightweight, but very sturdy and able to hold two to three big pots and pans over the sink. You can also fold it in half if you want to access the sink but want to dry a pot or some glasses while washing." —Jay C.

It lasts for 12 minutes at a time and even features a UV light to sterilize the steam! It also comes with a blackhead extraction kit, but just be careful and watch some tutorials before you go to town on your skin.
Promising review: "This is almost a life changer. I always steam my face in the shower so I can pop my pimples (I know, it sounds so gross but seriously). However, this steamer is AMAZING. I highly recommend it if you are suffering from acne and want to give yourself your own DIY facial. Overall, fabulous purchase." —Anna
Price: $27.99+ (available in gold and purple)
Promising review: "It’s soooo soft!!!!!! I totally recommend buying this. I’m usually a size medium but I ordered a large, because most people were saying that if you wanted it oversized at all then size up. I did that and I’m glad I did. It’s a great oversized fit, but it’s definitely not too oversized. Another great thing about it is that it’s lined with a really soft material on the inside just as the outside. Wearing it is like a big fluffy blanket and it’s amazing." —lainna
Price: $31.99+ (available in sizes S-3XL and in 15 styles/colors)
Promising review: "I love how customizable it is, especially with it being two separate parts that can just slide towards or away from each other to adjust the space accordingly. I used it for my office desk so that I could make use of the vertical space for all the objects all over my desk, and it looks so much neater thanks to this handy shelf! It's fairly durable: I put my office phone (~10 lbs) on the top shelf, which is resting on the very edge of the bottom piece, and there have been no issues so far!" —Sarvani Gorti
Price: $24.99 (available in white and black)
Promising review: "Product functions as advertised and meets all expectations. The battery life of the earbuds is quite lengthy, and they hold a charge when not in use. The charging box for the earbuds can also double as a power bank and fully charge my phone, which is convenient. The sound quality of the earbuds themselves is excellent and there isn't a large lag in the sound as with other Bluetooth devices I've used. 10/0, would recommend!" —Soap user

It's designed for all skin types, thanks to its five different levels. Level one is for sensitive and dry skin, levels two and three are for neutral skin, and levels four and five are for mixed and oily skin. The set comes with four suction heads: for blackheads, removing dirt/grease, reducing dead skin buildup and fine lines, and tightening your skin. It's also rechargeable and they really thought of everything!
Promising review: "I honestly can't run out of great things to say about this! This blackhead remover works WONDERS I use it about once or twice a week & absolutely love it. It works very well, and I have seen a size reduction in my pores since using it for the past few weeks. I highly recommend this blackhead remover!" —Andrea

Promising review: "Very happy with these organizers. They are very sturdy and help keep my refrigerator organized. It's so much easier to find things. Things don't get lost in the back of the fridge. If something spills, it is easy to remove just that container and clean it than to clean the entire shelf. My refrigerator just looks better when the door is opened with these handy organizers. Should have purchased them sooner!" —Thoreauback

Promising review: "This umbrella is FANTASTIC. It opens/closes smooth and fast. So far it has worked great in the wind and rain. It seems to be quite sturdy. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a compact and easy to use umbrella. With the Lifetime Warranty, you just can't go wrong. Upper Echelon Products customer service is impeccable." —VICTOR J

Promising review: "This baby deep cleaned my brushes like crazy. I've never been able to clean them with an ordinary mat — it would take me longer and my hands would be pruned up from touching the bristle looking for remaining dirt in between. With this, it separates the bristles during spin. It's kind of like the face cleansing brush, it does most of the work for you. I was scared at first when it because I thought it would mess up the shape of the brush but I squeezed it back in place and it was good. Best product I've purchased in a while. I love this thing, It would definitely be a great gift to all my friends." —Grace

Promising review: "Holy crap. Please listen to this review. This is the best, and easiest to use wax I have ever tried. It dries super quickly and when it dries it creates a vacuum seal around the hair. It does not stick to skin in the slightest and cuts the pain down 75%. I would pay $150 dollars for this stuff because it is so good." —Amanda
Many reviewers heard about this from their allergist, so if regular over-the-counter medicine just isn't doing it for you, you should probably visit your doctor! This detergent contains Acaril, which removes allergens without having to wash and dry your clothes and sheets on hot.
Promising review: "This product is an essential for me. I'm highly allergic to dust mites, but it wasn't a problem until I moved to Florida. After living here about a year, I somehow became seriously allergic to my clothes. I couldn't wear something from my closet without sneezing and enough tears and nasal discharge to derail anything. Regular washing did nothing. I washed everything in this and the problem was completely, obviously, no-question-about-it solved. Now I wash all my clothes in this about once a year, whenever they start to make me sneezy, and bedding for me and my kids every so often. It is a wonderful product and it absolutely works." —Amy
Price: $24.95 (roughly 45 loads per bottle)
Promising review: "These are the sheets we have been searching for a long time! They are top quality, super soft, and I swear I even sleep better with this excellent bedding! Our bed has very deep pockets, and we usually have to use special straps just to keep the sheets on the mattress, but these fit and stay in place without any problems. I couldn't be happier with this purchase after many disappointments in the past with other brands. I guess there is a good reason why they are number one on Amazon, I'm just glad I discovered this brand!" —g-man
Price: $24.70+ (available in sizes twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, California king, split king, and in 43 colors)
Kit includes a bonder, base coat, activator, sealer, brush softener, base and finish powder, white and sheer pink powder, cuticle pusher, file, and buffer.
Promising review: "I am a vet tech so I’m constantly washing my hands and they really take a beating. I did my first ever set is dip nails 14 days ago and they still look brand new (minus the grow out of course)! I did file and fill the set and repaint today (day 14) because my nails grow very quickly and the grow out started to bother me. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow and I’m super happy with how they came out. You have to be exceptionally careful filing and shaping if you’re using a colored powder or it can get patchy looking and weird really quickly. I have heard from friends that it can take a few sets to really get the hang of it and I’m enjoying learning. All in all this is a fantastic product that you won’t be disappointed in." —echo1440

Promising review: "I used to be a terrible nail biter and this product has been an amazing help on my road to kicking the habit and finally growing strong healthy nails. It also works as a great base coat with most polishes, though I've found it especially effective when used with OPI colours and topcoats. I've attached my (terrible) before and after photo. I'm not sure I could have turned my nails around without this product." —R

Think about how much time you'll be saving! If time is money, then this thing pays for itself.
Promising review: " The chopper is heavy duty, and stainless steel. It's very sharp! It's easy to use by pushing products through. Everything comes out in even pieces and looks fantastic." —Chelsea H
Price: $20.99
Added bonus: This product doesn't use sticky adhesive paper. The roller can be reused over and over again because of its high quality bristles that grab the hair again and again like a brush.
Promising review: "Where has this been all my crazy cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-lb. tabby and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing – he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care; it's THAT good." —Stephanie

These heavy-duty plastic containers are microwave-, freezer-, and dishwasher-safe. They even have little vents you can open so you can microwave them with the lid on, preventing splatters!
Promising review: "Best upgrade! We'd been using plastic storage containers from the grocery store, where you pay $8 and get a bunch from a plastic bag company. My husband HATED those. They would stain, leak, or smell — even after they were cleaned. So when I saw these on BuzzFeed, I ordered a kit. We love them! Easy to clean, certain foods don't stain, not one leak has happened — and we eat soup and stir fry a lot for lunch. I immediately ordered five more so we could have a total of eight. We tend to do lunch at work 4/5 days. It was perfect. Also, the food seems to stay a bit fresher too, because of it being airtight. 100% would recommend to anyone looking for a good set of storage containers." —Amazon Customer
Price: $24.99 for a 14-piece set (also available in other set sizes)
Promising review: "I was looking for a massaging product to help with my lower back pain. I discovered the Zyllion pillow massager and thought it was a very reasonable price so I ordered it. The Shiatsu balls rotating on my lower back in combination with the heating feature (which can be turned off) really provided the relief I was looking for. I use it every morning while watching the news and it relieves the tightness in my back so I can get the day started. I would recommend this product to anyone." —D. Anderson

Promising review: "Works with Otterbox Defender case! I have a Samsung Galaxy S7 with an Otterbox Defender case. I didn't want to have to take my case off as this charger would be primarily used when I'm at work. I opted to stream music from my phone instead of buying and bringing a radio to my office, and I was using a standard charger but getting annoyed when I would have to leave my office and want to take my phone with me. I was so happy that I ordered one for my home as well!" —Karissa T.

And once you upload the images, you can just erase the pages and reuse them.
Promising review: "OMG!!! This device is so cool. It works beautifully. The scanning as well as the syncing capabilities are awesome. I have it scanned and synced to my Microsoft Note account. Writing with the pen is smooth and the paper feels like paper. The use of the wet cloth to erase works exactly like they said it does. I wish I had this product while in college. It is worth every penny." —Tulla Bell
Price: $24.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors)
Promising review: "I'm not sure, but you may be able to pick up handfuls of lava with these things. These are not only great on the grill but also just as general oven mitts as well. The silicone stripes are nicely tacky and help avoid drops from slippage. My hands run medium-large and these fit nicely." —Adam
Price: $25.95 (available in three sizes and four colors)
Promising review: "I'm amazed! We live in a prewar New York City apartment and it seemed that poor water pressure in the shower that barely extended beyond the wall was par for the course. We just installed this shower head and now the water stream extends to the other side of the tub! Looking forward to finally taking a satisfying shower after all this time." —TWNYC
Price: $19.17
Promising review: "I was so impressed when I used these for the first time. Every seasoning has an awesome, unique flavor! I'm already addicted to grill master and citrus pepper, and I've been using them on EVERYTHING since I first opened them. Super delicious and really versatile — just don't hesitate on this one!" —Carly D
Price: $24.99 (available in six flavor sets)
Promising review: "I adore these shoes. I have had a difficult time with loafers in general: they often do not give the support my feet need even though my heart longs for a good, affordable loafer. Behold, I found these and they are magical! They have such a lovely cushion and the sides of the shoes are so supportive. Last but not least, they look great on my feet." —Sarah Harris
Price: $32.99+ (available in sizes 6–11 and 32 colors and patterns)
It can also connect to their device via cable. Learn more about it in BuzzFeed's full write-up.
Promising review: "Oh my gosh, I love this! I got mine in the mail yesterday and ended up playing with it for about five hours last night LOL. It connects via Bluetooth so you can connect it to your phone — the music and your singing comes out of the microphone's speaker. It has a volume control for your voice and for the music and also an echo feature. You can put an SD card into the bottom of it and record yourself, or connect it with an audio out to record on one of those karaoke apps on your phone. Between this and being able to find just about any song on karaoke via YouTube, you could easily have your own karaoke parties at home!" —Ferretocious
