    25 Products That Reviewers Say Deserve More Than 5 Stars

    Including an alarm that screams when the door is opened, a TikTok-famous waterproof mascara, and a bed band that wraps around the mattress to keep fitted sheets in place.

    1. The new AirPods Pro for blocking out the distracting noise of roommates, nearby construction, downstairs neighbors, and more with active noise cancellation. And there's Transparency mode when you want to still be able to hear what's going on around him — like when Mom screams that it's time for dinner.

    2. A TikTok-famous 1,000-piece puzzle from The Magic Puzzle Company if you love twist endings. Not only is the illustration so beautiful that you'll probably glue and frame the puzzle when it's completed, but it also features 50 Easter eggs throughout *and* a magical twist that reveals itself once the puzzle is finished.

    3. A mold and mildew remover because you can set it, forget it, and come back in a few hours to see grout that looks like new. I'm talking basically every speck of black mold is gone! *Cues up "Do You Believe in Magic"*

    4. A National Geographic geode kit that'll make for a ~smashing~ good time and a great stress reliever. Now hand me those goggles, please!

    5. Cerave's face and body moisturizer to enjoy 24 hours of head-to-toe hydration with like 10 seconds of effort required on your part. It contains three ceramides, which are lipids that help the skin retain its moisture, plus hyaluronic acid, another ingredient known for keeping skin plump and hydrated.

    6. A stackable shoe rack with side pockets so you stop tripping over your boots every time you walk through your entryway.

    7. A thickened down jacket for anyone whose worst day ever involves schlepping through snow. This deceptively lightweight jacket is windproof and water-resistant so you can play all day without feeling the cold. Plus, the hood is lined with faux fur to keep your noggin warm. And! It has six pockets for holding all your crap so you don't have to worry about snow and sleet ruining your favorite leather purse.

    8. A bubbling clay mask if you struggle with blackheads and clogged pores. Reviewers say it de-gunks their pores without stripping the skin. And the foaming action will make it incredibly satisfying to use!

    9. A Colgate teeth-whitening pen because the precision brush lets you paint the brightening formula exactly where you want it instead of dealing with sticky strips that coat your gums with goopy gel.

    10. A bedsheet holder that'll keep your fitted sheet in place despite your tossing and turning during the night.

    11. A Crock-Pot food warmer to warm up the oatmeal you made for breakfast and then never got to actually eat or to reheat last night's chili leftovers. The outside doesn't get hot so you won't have to worry about accidentally singeing your fingers, and the removable container is dishwasher safe so you don't have to deal with the mess yourself, either!

    12. A stretchy skater skirt so you can remain a faithful and devoted member of the no-pants club.

    13. A Chef iQ smart pressure cooker for making you feel like you're a member of the Jetsons family. You can connect it to your phone via the Chef iQ app and discover guided recipes so you can stop ordering takeout for every meal. Your old pressure cooker probably still uses a landline!

    14. A door stop with a built-in security alarm if you live alone or just want the added comfort of knowing when someone is trying to get into your home. This bad boy emits a high-pitched alarm when pressure is applied to it (e.g., an intruder is attempting to open the door).

    15. A TikTok-famous Maybelline mascara because sky-high length and a waterproof, bamboo extract–infused formula that won't flake sounds like the ideal combination.

    16. Or a waterproof mascara popular within the Asian beauty community that'll separate lashes so they never look clumpy while locking in a curl that Asian lashes struggle to hold (IYKYK!!!!).

    17. And a magical cleansing balm to wipe it all away — because everyone knows that "waterproof" usually means it's gonna be a huge pain in the butt to remove. This one's made with Japanese pearl barley, an ingredient that can help nourish, brighten, and fade hyperpigmentation.

    18. A mini pet hair remover for anyone who has sooo much pet fur that's embedded in the carpets, car seats, and living room furniture. This triangular tool has teeth in three different lengths, so you can switch to the side that's best suited for whatever task you're tackling.

    19. A plant-based stainless-steel cleaner and polish if your fridge has been covered in smudges and fingerprints for so long that you've forgotten how beautiful and shiny it once was. Reviewers say it helps keep your surfaces smudge free for longer, meaning less cleaning for you!

    20. A robot mop because sometimes you wanna throw in the (cleaning) towel and let the machines do the work for you. This spinning mop bot cleans for 100 minutes on a single charge, offers seven cleaning modes you can set via remote, and has a smartsensor system to prevent collisions and falls.

    21. A box of grain-free dog treats that'll help loosen plaque and keep your dog's breath smelling fresh, well, you know, as fresh as dog's breath can smell. These treats come in a variety of shapes with bumps and ridges that clean the nooks and crannies of your pup's teeth. And, of course, they taste delicious (is what I would say if I were a dog, but I am not, so you'll have to listen to the pet owners who've bought these and swear their dogs go nuts for them).

    22. A genius dustpan and broom to help you scrape off the pet hair and human hair clinging to the broom bristles with its handy-dandy built-in teeth. And the handle is 52 inches so you should be able to sweep comfortably without bending over and hurting your back.

    23. A Bluetooth speaker with an app-controlled screen for adding a retro feel to your room. It's an alarm clock, stopwatch, calendar, entertainment center, and speaker all in one.

    24. A pack of paw-cleaning tablets if your dog is experiencing itchy and irritated paws but licks off any salves you apply. These tablets dissolve in water, so all your pet needs to do is soak their paws for a few minutes and let the tea tree oil and seaweed extract treat hot spots and moisturize their paws.

    25. A Bio-Oil dry skin gel because it'll help command + Z all the dry and flaky skin that winter has caused. It's made of emollients like sunflower oil, lavender oil, and more, which create a barrier over the skin to prevent moisture loss.
