1. An inflatable pool so you can make your dreams of relaxing in a pool on a sunny spring day with a glass of sweet tea a reality — even if you have a small backyard.
Promising review: "Good size. I'm 5'4 and I bought it for my 3-year-old and 2-year-old for the spring and summer. I didn't need anything huge; I have a nice size deck and we spend a lot of time on the deck so I wanted something big enough for them to have some wiggle room to keep cool but not too big so it wouldn't take up to much room. I also purchased an outdoor grass rug to put it on to protect the bottom of it and keep it from getting splinters (just a suggestion if you plan on using on the deck). It has a drain plug so cleaning and getting fresh water is not hard at all." —Majestic 0220
Get it from Amazon for $50.99.
2. Or a collapsible dog/kiddie pool if you're looking for a more durable option that can withstand kids and dogs roughhousing. It's portable and folds down so you can store it in the garage for next spring/summer.
Promising review: "I am now the proud owner of THREE of these dog pools. I have an XXL, an XL, and an S pool for our backyard 'frogs' that wouldn't stay out of the big pools! Yes, I bought the frogs their own pool...that's how amazing these pools are! We had the XXL and XL pools out every day last summer (changed the water twice per week) and they were used daily by all three dogs. There have been no punctures of any sort or any issues at all with these pools, and my dogs can play pretty rough at times. The XXL pool was used for both the 2018 and 2019 summers with no issues. These pools are literally my dogs' favorite part of summer... I can't keep them out of them! As soon as we get back from a walk, they jump right in!" —Kate M
Get it from Amazon for $25+ (available in five sizes and two colors).
3. An anti-chafing balm for swiping anywhere your clothes rub. It creates a moisture-repelling layer on your skin (without ever feeling greasy!) that protects against blisters, irritation, and chafing when your running, hiking, biking, or just trying to exist in the world as a sweaty person.
Promising review: "I am a lifelong curvy lady whose thighs have rubbed together since the beginning of time, probably, so I’m no stranger to chafing. This morning I applied the balm to my inner thighs under a sundress and spent a day walking around in the heat and sunshine; it was hot, and I was sweating, but miraculously, my thighs felt fine! I applied the balm at around 11:30 a.m. and as I write my review it’s almost 7:30 p.m. but my legs are going strong. Other parts of me have definitely reacted to being out and about but not my thighs — without this stuff, they would be pink and tender, but they feel soft and happy. I am absolutely impressed. Long story short, this stuff absolutely worked for me; I plan to buy a larger size when this smaller one runs out. Don’t be a doubter like I was!" —Gina
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
4. An immunity-boosting allergy supplement to ensure your pup can accompany you on all your outdoor adventures without succumbing to itchy skin and seasonal allergies. These soft chews deliver a dose of probiotics and other nutrients to help improve immune function, aid digestion, promote healthy skin, and add shine to a dog's coat.
Promising review: "My dog loves these. We live in the south so allergies are pretty serious here. When spring came around I noticed he was constantly gnawing at his paw and wasn’t eating as much as he used to. I did some research and found this product. I was skeptical, as he’s kind of picky, but he is obsessed with them. He waits at the pantry door every morning for them. He thinks they are treats. I noticed — within hours — that he was no longer gnawing at his paw and his appetite was also back to normal. When he finished his first tube of these, I decided to wait to order more and see if they really worked or if his allergies just wore off. A few weeks went by and I noticed him gnawing at his paw again and not eating. I ordered them Sunday and he’s back on them again. He was so excited to see them again and is no longer gnawing at his paw :)" —Alyssa
Get them from Amazon for $26.97.
5. A cruelty-free lengthening mascara because you dream of fluttery lashes that actually hold a voluminous curl when it's hot and humid outside. It's lightweight, won't transfer, doesn't smudge, and lasts all day — what more could you ask for?
Promising review: "I have been a mascara snob my entire adult life, and have been purchasing the same two brands for mascara. Then, I decided to get an inexpensive tube of mascara just to have in my emergency makeup back, and WOW was I surprised! One coat of this stuff is better than four of five coats of my other stuff. It isn't waterproof, so it comes off with just a makeup-removing facial cleanser or micellar water with no problem. It separates and lengthens my lashes. I have people stop and ask me ALL THE TIME what I do to my eyelashes to make them 'look like that.' Like...literally stopped in the middle of a sidewalk in downtown Tampa to ask about my eyelashes. And it really does stay in place, even without a setting spray, when most of the other makeup I use melts off. Seriously Let me put this in perspective: I live in Florida, and I wore this mascara to work every single day for the last year in the heat/humidity (including all through the summer) and they stayed on my lashes better than any other brand of mascara I've used. This is now officially turned into my go-to mascara!" —Kate
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
6. A mosquito repellent that creates a 15-foot skeeter-free zone because these pesky bloodsuckers have ruined far too many spring days by making it absolutely miserable to be outside.
Promising review: "I bought this because I was looking for an effective insect repellant for my patio this spring/summer. I didn't want a bulky candle or tiki torch that smelled like canola oil. I found the Thermacell. It looked modern and promising. We tried it and it works really well. It also produces no smell or sound. We live in the south where mosquitos are really awful and the Thermacell made sitting on our patio tolerable! Definitely recommend." —Trusted Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in 15 colors and two styles).
7. And a high-voltage bug zapper so you can say goodbye to not only mosquitoes, but also gnats, flies, moths, and other insects within a 1,500-square-foot area.
Promising review: "You will not be disappointed. I just moved out to the country and have been working out in the garage late at night. With the weather getting warmer, I've had the garage doors opened and mosquitos, gnats, and everything else have been finding there way into my garage, so I had to do something about it. I bought this and hung it next to my garage door opener because there's an outlet there and it is way better than expected. I have dead bees, stink bugs, gnats, mosquitoes, and other bugs that I do not know what they are. My 8-year-old son keeps asking me to remove the bottom tray so he can see all of the dead bugs that got zapped. Again, you will not be disappointed, I'm extremely happy I bought this!" —Chris & Jenny
Get it from Amazon for $28.89.
8. A CeraVe salicylic acid body wash if you adore being outside but warmer spring weather is causing your keratosis pilaris to flare up and itch. It exfoliates without the harsh microbeads, erasing rough and bumpy skin while leaving behind moisturizing hyaluronic acid and calming niacinamide.
Promising review: "My 6-year-old daughter has keratosis pilaris, commonly known as 'chicken skin.' This year it really flared up during warm weather so I gave this wash along with lotion a try. Wow, I saw results after just a few uses and after a couple of weeks most of her bumps disappeared. Thrilled we skipped a trip to the dermatologist! Can’t beat this price for the results either." —Ashley Steigerwald
Get it from Amazon for $12.74.
9. An air purifier for anyone who's thrilled about balmy spring temps but not quite as excited about inevitable spring allergies. This bad boy removes dander, mold, dust, and pollen in the air to help you breathe better.
Promising review: "I have severe allergies during the spring and summer months and have tried everything from nettie pots to OTC allergy medicine to get some sort of relief. If you saw my trash cans they were full of used tissues and I was still constantly sneezing. I saw immediate results with the first few days. I use it at night in my bedroom I have the setting on '2,' which is at the medium setting. The noise level is not that bad; I can still hear the television and hold a normal conversation with my husband. The noise level tends to go away or blend once you get used to it. The results are great. I still have the occasional sneeze and have to use a tissue every now and then but, I am nowhere near what I was. I can finally breathe at night without having to take the OTC medicine. This has been a true lifesaver for me. I will be looking to purchase another one after our renovations are completed in our kitchen/living room. Best purchase ever to get a sense of normalcy in my life." —P. Allen
Get it from Amazon for $89.99 (also available in white).
10. A LifeStraw to give you peace of mind when you're camping. It's designed to eliminate 99% of waterborne bacteria and certain parasites, and it filters contaminants as small as 0.2 microns. Plus! Each LifeStraw will last long enough to effectively strain 1,000 gallons of water.
Promising review: "The LifeStraw is indispensable for any interior camper. My buddy purchased these on a whim and have proven themselves numerous times. Very lightweight and conveniently hangs around neck. Time or energy is not wasted boiling water or using toxic water treatment chemicals, also no off tastes from using the LifeStraw. The only downside of this I foresee is for interior hiking, as frequent purging of the LifeStraw is required. I primarily canoe camp and thus water is readily available so this is not a problem for me. I do carry a water bottle for portages or for drinking in the tent. If you canoe camp or hike where there is abundant water buy this device!" —Dane
Get it from Amazon for $15.39.
11. A stainless-steel insert because, gosh darn it, the weather's nice and you want to have a family pizza night. This kit converts your charcoal grill into a fancy schmancy pizza oven so you can enjoy custom pies at home.
Promising review: "I really researched and shopped around before I purchased this from Amazon. I cooked my first pizza on it and it came out like a pro!! We will be using this especially during the summer as it pretty much stay in the triple digits here (the Mojave Desert). I cannot believe it took less than 10 minutes to bake an entire pizza. I recommend that you go to the KettlePizza website to get pointers from some of the celebrity chefs that they have videos of. These pointers really did help me to cook a perfect pizza!" —Kim Suzanne
Get it from Amazon for $129.
12. An outdoor drink stakes set that'll securely hold your glass of lemonade in a safe spot. You know what's not fun? Setting down your soda only for it to fall over on uneven ground, get kicked accidentally, or be invaded by ants.
Promising review: "These are great. They are large enough to hold large drink tumblers like a Yeti, they will hold a beer with a thick foam koozie, they will hold a giant Fosters can, and yes, it is large enough to hold a bottle of wine. They are made out of metal and seem pretty durable. Each one is two pieces that screw together and they have a small tab to help you push them into the ground with your feet. The only thing I would improve is to make the foot tab a little larger, otherwise they have my stars." —Jamawama
Get a set of four from Amazon for $19.99.
13. A portable 100-inch movie screen so your family's outdoor movie night isn't ruined by the little one in the back whining, "I can't see the screen!" It's lightweight yet sturdy, large enough for everyone (and probably the neighbors) to see, and reviewers say setup takes mere minutes.
14. A pair of baggy overalls if you're rejoicing now that you're free of skin-tight denim and layers of sweaters. Reviewers swear the loose, flowy, and breathable cotton linen fabric is incredibly comfy and lightweight on the skin — qualities you'll definitely want from your spring wardrobe.
Promising review: "I have gotten so many compliments on these overalls! I was looking for something comfortable and light enough to wear during the summer since I'm not a big fan of shorts. I'm pretty petite and it fits well and is just baggy enough. I love them so much I ordered another pair in blue!" —Cynthia Cahalen
Get it from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 12 colors).
15. A Chuckit! ball launcher for anyone with an energetic pup. Exhaust your dog with minimum effort on your part and have a ball — literally and figuratively! — together.
Promising review: "Love this! We now have ordered three! One for each vehicle for when we go to the dog park and one to keep at home! Our dogs love it and I love it because it helps by keeping my shoulder from hurting from throwing a ball. Easy to use and really helps the dogs get exercise and have fun!" —Michelle S
Get it from Amazon for $8.72+ (available in a variety of sizes).
16. A waterproof phone pouch to ensure you get the best underwater photos without ruining your phone. It'll fit phones as large as an iPhone 13 Pro Max, and reviewers have even been able to squeeze in phones with bulky Otterbox cases.
Promising review: "Worked perfectly and saved my trip!! Our hotel let us borrow a GoPro but the pictures it took were horrible. Thank goodness I had this with me for snorkeling. My iPhone 12 Pro took great pictures in this bag. I would have been bummed not to catch a few pictures of the sea turtles we saw! Def recommend. Used several times and didn’t get scratch up or cloudy." —Tiff
Get it from Amazon for $6.79+ (available in 14 colors).
Check out my colleague's review of this waterproof phone pouch for more deets!
17. An inflatable lounge chair because it's big enough to sit multiple people comfortably yet it takes up barely any weight — just 2.65 pounds to be exact — in your camping backpack. Inflating it will take a little bit of getting used to (basically, you have to run around to fill it with air), but it'll stay inflated for at least five to six hours.
Promising review: "I ordered this on a whim for a camping trip with my family and I’m so glad I did. It was a big hit! It inflated very easily. I just used a fan and it filled up in a few seconds. My nephews (ages 3 and 4) continually ran and jumped on it for hours and it barely lost any air. We were all very impressed with the durability and it was so comfy! I would definitely recommend." —Jennifer FitzGerald
Get it from Amazon for $39.98+ (available in 16 colors).
18. A volcanic stone face roller that'll remove the shine oil and shine from your face. And unlike oil-blotting sheets, the ball can be popped out and washed so you can use this over and over and over again.
Promising review: "I traveled to Italy this summer and this thing was a life saver. It was so hot there and I was drenched in sweat, but after using this I no longer looked sticky or shiny. 10/10 would recommend." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $11.38.
19. A very practical sunshade triangle so you can create some much-needed shade. This airy shade lets the breeze pass through while shielding you from up to 95% of the sun's rays.
Promising review: "My pool is awesome when it gets into the 100s of degrees here in California. We decided to grab a 20x20x20 triangle and holy cow does it do a number on the backyard! Not only does it keep my pool better shaded, but it also keeps the sun off of my back patio during the hottest part of the day." —The Tiki Lab
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in five sizes and six colors).
20. A creamy paw butter if your pet's precious toe beans are getting burned on hot sidewalks and asphalt. This balm moisturizes dry, cracked paws and snoots and is safe if licked or swallowed. #PROTECTTHEBEANS
Promising review: "This is perfect for keeping my dog's paw pads soft and safe, especially in the winter months. I put this one her paws anytime we would go out to protect against the salt and cinders from winter and even in the spring and summer months to keep her pads soft." —Bekah Mroczkowski
Get it from Amazon for $7.87.
21. A 4-in-1 inflatable pool float for making pool time even more fun. But beware — it's so dang comfortable that you might want to buy two so you don't have to share!
Promising review: "Got this on a whim after reading some reviews. I didn't expect it to immediately become the fam's new favorite! Lay back and you are half in, half out of the water so you aren't baking from above or freezing below — just what we wanted. It holds your head well out of the water and feels very supportive/stable. I've had it for about a month now and only had to blow it up the first time, the plastic is fairly thick and doesn't lose air through seams or the nozzle. We have a full-body foam float that cost about $120 and it never gets used any more. Everybody takes turns on this one. Great deal for the price; I just bought three more of various colors. Go ahead and try it." —JB
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in 22 colors).
22. A hammock chair to turn your porch into an oasis. It can support up to 320 pounds, and has built-in pockets so all your relaxation essentials are always nearby.
Promising review: "We love this swing! It is such a huge hit. Both the adults and kids love it. It's so cute and we have had a ton of fun using it. Even my mother wants one for a gift so we plan on buying her one for her house soon!" —M Stocki
Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in three colors).
23. A set of anti-chafing thigh bands because hell hath no fury like a pair of angry, sweaty, chafing thighs.
Promising review: "We can finally toss the deodorant...these things work! I was hella skeptical because my thighs are resistant to any sort of chub rub defense. I wore them while walking at least five hours at a music festival and they stayed put without me ever needing to adjust them! I couldn't believe it! My delicate inner thigh skin was preserved; not a chub-rub in sight and they're so feminine and romantic-looking that I didn't even care if someone caught a peek at that beautiful lace. Way sexier than my usual biker shorts. Love that I can wear dresses all day now without worrying about my thighs overheating." —OceanHips
Get them from Amazon for $18.95+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 17 styles).
24. A lawn repair formula that'll regrow the grass that died over the winter so you have something to mow this spring...because yes...some of us are looking forward to mowing the lawn! It's designed for reversing scorch marks from pet urine, damage from their digging, and wear in high traffic areas.
Promising review: "I used this in the spring to fill out our lawn more, and it worked great! I was worried because I feel like you always hear grass seed horror stories, but I just raked our lawn good, spread seeds all over, and watered it once (sometimes twice) per day and it filled the lawn in beautifully!" —Mariah
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in five sizes and four styles).
25. A lightweight primer so you can apply your makeup to a smooth, even surface and have it stay all day, despite the heat and humidity. It's made with green tea extract and collagen to protect and moisturize the skin.
Promising review: "I wanted to give this product 10 stars but was only limited to five :( This stuff is AMAZING!!!! I'm almost 30 and my face has become super oily — like I can fry chicken on it by the end of the day. So for months I've neglected wearing any kind of foundation or makeup in general. After reading reviews I figured O would give this a try. The glow it gives you is AWESOME!!! It makes my skin so soft. I'm probably going to wear just this and no foundation 50% of the time. After the Texas heat..and the sun..and amounts of sweat...my face was PERFECT......STILL! No oil...no smears...no pores... This is literally sent from heaven!!!! My ONLY dislike is the fact that you cant purchase this in five-gallon buckets!" —Jessica
Get it from Amazon for $15.50.
26. A pair of polarized sunglasses if you plan on spending a lot of time outdoors. Polarized lenses are designed to reduce reflection and glare, improving clarity in super bright light.
Promising review: "I've always just worn 'fashion' sunglasses when I ran because I didn't think I was a legit enough runner to need special running sunglasses. On a whim I decided to treat myself to these leading up to my first 5K. I will NEVER go back! I can't believe how great these are. I have sensitive eyes and the polarized lenses are just incredible. I can see so clearly and the fact that they don't slip off my face is awesome. I didn't realize how much I was have to push my other sunglasses back up my nose until I bought these." —laurenrenee
Get them from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three colors).
27. A splurge-worthy pop-up tent for creating a spacious shelter that allows you and up to seven other people to enjoy the outdoors no matter the weather.
Promising review: "It keeps cold wind and leaves out and some heat in. There are zip vents at top to let in fresh air and two zipper doors. This has extended the season for hot tub use, we were able to set up in early March in Chicago area. Would also be fun for around a small picnic table and to sit outside in the rain." —Lisa F1969
Get it from Amazon for $349.99+ (available in four sizes).
28. A bottle of professional grade callus-removing gel to dissolve hard dead skin in literal minutes if you want spring sandal-ready heels. Let it sit for two to three minutes, then give it a good scrub with a foot file and your heels will be baby bottom smooth.
Promising review: "This is a Hail Mary! This is hands-down the best product ever!!!! I have been using this product on my clients and it has made my job so much easier and less time-consuming." —Diamante Valentine
Get it from Amazon for $13.87.
29. An instant cooling towel because it's hot as heck outside and you'll want some sweet, sweet relief for your neck after a long run.
Promising review: "Great product! I bought this for an upcoming summer hiking trip in Utah, but I have been using it for an aerobics class as a headband. I sweat on my head and it runs down into my eyes. Regular headbands get soaked too fast. This really works because it keeps my head cooler and when warms up, I simply drizzle more water on it from my spouted water bottle." —Lepmay
Get it from Amazon for $6.95 (available in 10 colors).
30. A Revlon hot air brush that'll help you go from wet, tangled, frizzy hair to a shiny, salon-worthy blowout in minutes. Reviewers even say it helps extend the life of their style even when spring weather decides to be hot and muggy.
The brush has special vents that allow air to flow so hair dries faster. Plus, it's quicker than using a dryer and then a flat iron or curling iron, which equals less heat damage.
Promising review: "I’ve been through all types of hair straighteners/stylers, flat irons, blow dryers, different brushes and combinations of all 4. This wonderful product was an all-in-one tool that's easy to pack in my suitcase. The blowout even withstood Gulf of Mexico humidity AND Disney World in the spring humidity. I’ve also noticed that my hair isn’t falling out as much as it did with flat irons. It also keeps much more shine and moisture in my hair. Love love love this." —Linda W.
Get it from Amazon for $34.88. If you've tried barrel-shaped hot air brushes before without success and have tighter curls or coils, you may want to try the paddle brush version, which reviewers with 3a–4c hair swear by.
31. A balcony bar so you can enjoy the spring breeze and sunlight even if you have an itty bitty balcony. There's zero assembly required; just slide it over your deck rails and enjoy your new spot!
Best Balcony Bars makes...the best balcony bars, whether you're looking for space-saving outdoor furniture or you want to turn your patio into *the* place to be.
Promising review: "Beautiful, hand-crafted, custom-fit to my railing. Creator is great to deal with on a custom piece. Everyone compliments it. I eat or have drinks on it every day and prefer it to eating at my dining room table! The second tier is ideal serving dishes, glasses, bottles, and the main tier is ideal for main dishes, computers, and notebooks while optimizing my patio functionality and keeping me at my serene view throughout my day. Great custom piece!" —Travis Horn
Get it from Best Balcony Bars on Etsy for $202.95+ (available in two sizes and three colors).
32. A magical sand-sifting mat if you think it ~shore~ is annoying when you're at the beach and your blanket is covered in sand. It's large enough to fit the family, and durable, quick drying, and water resistant.
Promising review: "I used this as a 'veranda' in front of my tent in a sandy rock outcropping in heavy Wyoming wind. When sand was tracked onto the blanket, all I had to do was wave my hand or foot over the sand pile and it fell right through the weaves of fabric not to come back up. The benefits included not tracking sand into my tent, having a clean space to roll up my sleeping bag (without sand all over it), a sandless spot to lay our gear and organize, a perfect unsandy area to sit and chat with friends. I loved it. We camped on sand in 40-mph swirling gusts of a stormy weekend. On my first campout in this location (without this blanket) a lot of sand covered my gear inside the tent. But with the camping mat, what an improvement!" —Alexandra B.
Get it from Amazon for $64.99+ (available in four sizes and two colors).
33. An outdoor activity box for keeping your kiddo entertained without the use of screens. This is a great excuse to get everyone outside for a little bit so you can all enjoy some fresh air, some family bonding, and some surprisingly fun challenges — like figuring out how many times can you run around your backyard in two minutes. I'm already tired just thinking about it.
The Idea Box Kids is a small business based in Wilsonville, Oregon that dreams up super fun and exciting activity boxes that encourage child-directed and play-based learning.
Promising review: "I purchased this for my kids, ages 2–10. They all think it’s great and I agree!! The activities are new to us and that’s surprising because we have a house full of nature/project/homeschool books and games. I would definitely recommend purchasing." —jmo7799
Get 30 coins (60 activities total) from The Idea Box Kids on Etsy for $24.99.
34. A stunning ruffle V-neck one-piece to wear as you sip your sweet tea poolside.
Promising review: "This swimsuit is sexy, comfortable, and affordable. Love it. Would give it 10 stars. Bought it in red and olive." —Holly
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 20 colors; this is a super cute plus-size option as well).
35. A bug bite suction tool because you're tired of becoming mosquito food when spring rolls around. It's designed to actually suck out venom, saliva, and irritants on your skin that may be causing swelling and itching.
You can also use it to treat bites from bees, wasps, biting flies, no-see-ums, chiggers, and sea lice.
Promising review: "I ordered the Bug Bite Thing in December after watching the Shark Tank episode. I live in the Northeastern US and have not had to use it until the spring weather arrived. No matter what I do, bugs find me, and to compound it, I usually have an allergic reaction. I have tried numerous anti-itch creams and natural remedies through the years, which treat symptoms but not the root cause. I ordered the Bug Bite Thing with skepticism but am very pleasantly surprised. I had multiple bug bites that I tried this on and the itching and swelling dissipated immediately! It works and without chemicals. I highly recommend!" —HappyDaisy547
Get it from Amazon for $9.95 (available in three colors).
36. A water-resistant portable stadium seat with a mesh seatback pocket that'll make spring sports events way more comfortable. It converts to a two-person bench pad if you lay it flat.
Promising review: "Want to be able to sit down pretty much anywhere without using your abs? Well this little stadium seat is for you, my friend! Seriously it's great. I take it with me to the park, on picnics, camping, etc., and when everyone else is sitting on the ground leaning on their arms, folding up like pretzels for balance, or otherwise using their cores like suckers — I'm leaning back like a boss. It's the life. It's lightweight, rolls up to fit in a backpack or bag, and there's enough tension between the seat and the back to sit pretty comfortably. Get one for your outdoor activities. It's nicer to bring to outdoor concerts and movies than a bulky beach chair, which might block the people behind you. Be among the plebes. Sit on the ground. But do it like a champion with this stadium seat." —supershanno
Get it from Amazon for $10.69.
37. A pair of dog leggings (!!!!!) so Fido's legs — not just his paws — are protected from all the spring showers (read: mud everywhere). Now he can play in all the puddles and you don't have to deep clean your carpets. A win-win!
Walkee Paws is a small biz started by pet owner Lisa Baronoff. You may have seen them on Shark Tank! Get 15% off site-wide with the code WALKEEBUZZ.
Promising review: "I love the Walkee Paws. Unlike the other type of dog boots, these stay on her tiny feet. My little girl never liked walking in the rain or snow. The first time I put them on her inside the house, she was hesitant to walk but with a little coaxing she walked off the rug onto the wooden floor. When she realized that she didn't slip, she started acting silly running back and forth in the house. Now she loves walking in the snow and water puddles." —Cynthia C.
Get them from Walkee Paws for $39.99 (available in sizes XS–L and a variety of colors).
38. A standing weeder if you actually love gardening but hate having to kneel for hours plucking weeds. My back hurts just thinking about it! Thankfully, this tool has three steel claws that grip weeds and roots so you can pull them out while standing.
Made with a bamboo handle and powder-coated steel, it uses a simple lever system to made weeding easy.
Promising review: "Oh my god, I friggin' love this tool. I bought this on a whim given we bought our first house and know nothing about caring for a yard. Boy has it come in handy. Our new house had a ton of weeds in the front yard and this tool helped me get most of them out in no time. In fact, the process of yanking out the weeds was strangely satisfying! I don't think anyone can say that weeding is fun but this tool made it as close to fun as you can get, especially when you see a long root along with the weed you pulled." —JG
Get it from Amazon for $35.99.
39. An effective grill cleaner for keeping your most-used warm weather appliance in tip-top shape. It's almost outdoor barbecue season = you're gonna need this. It's a no-brainer!
Promising review: "I tried six different products before trying this one and by far, this is the best one of all. I am the type of person who prefers cleaning the grill immediately after grilling. It loosens the debris off the grates easily and comes off easily. I like easy practical cleaning without the need to spend much time scrubbing. Try it, you will not regret it." —Fmcasado
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $17.29.
40. An ear treatment to clean your poor pet's ears of buildup and prevent inflammation and irritation when their allergies blowup in the spring. These ear drops are designed to protect against a variety of fungal and bacterial infections, like yeast and staph infections.
Promising review: "We LOVE this product! Our labrador seems to get ear mites in the spring/summer and constantly shakes his ears, slinging slobber everywhere and even waking us up in the middle of night shaking his ears. This product absolutely works. No more vet visits to get ear mite treatment, no more waking up in the middle of the night, no more slobber slung in the oddest spots of the walls! Most importantly, he seems to really like this product. As soon as I use it, he truly seems relieved, which makes me feel good about this product. If you're in the endless cycle of ear mite vet visits, please give this a try and just see if it works for you!" —Valerie N.

41. A genius phone shade because relaxing on a lounge chair and watching TikToks beachside sounds uh-mazing right now. But how can you watch your videos with the sun shining in your eyes? This attaches to the back of your phone, blocking enough sunlight that you can see your screen without having to crank up the brightness to 100%.
Shadey Attachments is a small business based in the UK.
Promising review: "I can honestly say I now can’t use my phone in the sun without it! It took a second to get going and to realize you have to point it at the sun to put your face in the shade. Literally the best thing ever for the sun." —Harley Place

42. A set of color-changing inflatable pool balls that'll entice you to actually get in the pool, even if it's just to pose with your new lights for Instagram. They're solar powered and will last about eight hours on a charge.
Each light cycles through red, blue, white, and green.
Promising review: "My pool is so old school and boring that I bought these to liven it up and what a difference!! My pool went from 'meh' to WOW! The balls are easily inflated by mouth like a beach ball. Once inflated, a few hours in the sun and they are charged and ready to go. They light up after dusk ( it has to be rather dark). There is no manual way to power them on or off; they glow all night long. The changing colors are vibrant and very beautiful. They have a loop at the top if you would like to hang them. They would be magical hanging in a tree or from a pergola. I really liked how easy these were to fill and charge, and I like the solar power and the amazing color display. They make my inner child happy." —J. Matheson
