Promising review: "They are great. I love dachshunds and to have little ones in my drink are even better. Everything about the silicone is great and it is easy to take the ice out and not have it break. I've used it for a few months and it still is holding up wonderfully." —Schmidty

Promising review: "This is actually the second one I have purchased through this company, the first I gave to my sister in law because she loved it so much! You really can't get anything comparable for the money...I've tried and failed. It has the perfect amount of stretch without being too tight or too loose, and it's incredibly soft. I can't recommend this enough!" —Laura Sanchez

Promising review: "These are the best little containers EVER! I use them for so many things: change 'purse' for my work locker, pill containers, small jewelry holder (fits my earrings, rings and necklace and works great for when I can't wear something and don't want to lose it). I've used a few daily and none of them have broken or popped open and I've had these for two and a half months already! Cannot praise these things enough! Definitely worth the money." —Meghan Danielle

Get the set of 12 from Amazon for $8.49.
Promising review: "So Soft. So squishy. So stretchy! These little guys are so satisfying to sit there and squish when you're feeling anxious or frustrated. The paint on their little faces is a little messy sometimes, but the way a stress ball looks isn't very important. I like that these are small enough to fit inside of your pocket, because so many stress balls are big and obvious and embarrassing." —So Soft. So squishy. So stretchy!

Promising review: "This could not be any cuter! The Princess is here to save your lips, and her cinnamon bun flavor is a wonderful choice to go with her bun hairdo. The container's too heavy to carry with you, but it's great to sit on your desk. Also in case you're worried about it, the cinnamon is not strong enough to burn your lips, but you can taste it." —ThatVulcanB

Promising review: "This product has become a staple of my household around Christmas time. Everyone gets a package in their Christmas stocking. The flavor is delicious and unique, making for a great sweet treat! The size of the packaging is marvelous. It's not too much or too little. There is just the right amount of sugary sweetness in this little package." —Tobias

Promising review: "I bought a couple of these to reinforce a cord that has become weak due to normal wear and tear. I was hoping they were functional for a Galaxy phone (which I'm thrilled they are) but had no idea how extremely cute they would be. I've ended up buying SEVERAL more for stocking stuffers." —jwow76

Promising review: "I usually don’t wear lipstick, I’m more of a gloss girl but that’s mainly because I don’t like reapplying or uneven color after an hour. I’ve searched for a light, long lasting lip color in shades that worked with my skin tone. I LOVE this. I ordered a second color a few weeks after the first and probably will stock up just in case. It last a long time and as it fades it doesn’t look bad. The color wears naturally but it takes a while, and several glasses of water, before that happens. Worth every penny!" —Veronica

Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
Promising review: "Okay this thing is literally hilarious, I did NOT have high expectations for something this small and cute. It was even smaller and cuter than I expected. But wow, okay, when I heard it blast music beautifully I just started laughing because this thing should NOT sound as amazing as it does. I just took it on a weekend getaway with some friends and the looks that they gave it when they heard it, think a puppy head tilt when it doesn't understand something. Yup. It's amazing." —ams

Promising review: "These are super adorable - and were exactly what my daughter and I were looking for. They sit great in our cups so we can enjoy our teas. None of my loose leaves came out either (an issue I’ve had in the past with other infusers) — Plus, they are THE easiest to clean!" —Amanda

Promising review: "This is the second toy from this maker I have bought and I LOVE them. More importantly so does Lola! They last forever and she gets so excited. The best part is that she hasn't been able to tear it apart yet. I decided I was going to buy her a new one each month until she has them all." —Reynold Wang
