1. A programmable AC booster fan that'll help cool those rooms that are significantly warmer than the rest of the house. It's meant to be mounted on existing floor or wall registers and will help increase airflow from your HVAC.
Promising review: "I was at a loss on how to get two of our bedrooms cooler. They would be 8–10 degrees higher than the rest of the house and it was miserable for my kids to try to sleep. I decided to try these and it was an immediate improvement! The noise level at 10 was noticeable but not disruptive. You can turn the fan down to decrease the fan noise if you you need too. My room stays cooler but I may get two more to try for the winter to see how it works with the heating system. I am very satisfied with this purchase." —LKMJ
Get it from Amazon for $69.99.
2. A pair of noise-reduction earplugs to dull loud noises and background sounds, as well as muffle voices, so they're great for people with auditory sensitivities and folks who just want some peace and quiet to focus or find zen.
The earplugs also come with a carrying case and eight different ear tips (XS–L) to ensure the perfect fit.
Promising review: "I have been incredibly satisfied with these earplugs. They are like nothing else I have tried and I have tried several. Wearing these at night cancels out enough sound that I am able to sleep uninterrupted. My husband comes to bed much later and this would always wake me. He also snores slightly when he sleeps (don’t we all?) and that would even wake me up! The cat and dog come for a visit and the kids come in and out of our bedroom and the adjacent TV room. I am able to sleep theough it all now and this enables me to be happier and more well rested in the morning." —Jaimielaura
Get it from Amazon for $24.95 (available in nine colors).
3. A bath overflow drain cover so you can enjoy a few extra inches of toasty water instead of sitting in water only up to your belly button and feeling scammed.
Promising review: "My spillover on my tub was annoyingly low and to fill the tub for a soak was impossible. I was skeptical of this product but it works perfectly. I get another 2–3 inches of water for my bath. Very satisfied. I would buy again." —SznVG
Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in nine colors).
4. A CeraVe eye cream for helping reduce under-eye puffiness and dark circles, as well as helping hydrate and calm tired skin.
5. A 2-in-1 coffee scooper and filler because it eliminates the mess of filling your reusable K-cup pod with coffee grounds! *cue singing angels* Use this instead of shoving the K-cup pod into the bag of grounds or using a too-big spoon to scoop grounds into the pod (and inevitably spilling some on the counter).
Promising review: "This coffee scoop [makes it] so much easier to scoop and pour the coffee into the pod. Before this scoop, I just scooped the pod into my coffee can and hoped I got enough or not too much coffee. I like the lid that comes down over the scoop to form a funnel that directs the coffee into the pod with no messy spillage and the scoop has the perfect amount of coffee to fill the pod. Cleanup is easy: I tap it and it is clean. I can always opt to wipe it out with a cloth or paper towel or rinse it off. Overall, I am very satisfied with this scoop. All good pros and no cons." —Alma67
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in two packaging styles).
6. A nail file board if your options when it comes to trimming your pooch's overgrown nails are as follows: 1) chase them around the house with nail clippers and fail spectacularly, 2) pay $$ and bring them to the groomer, who says they couldn't trim your dog's nails because Fido wouldn't stop screaming (happened to me!), or 3) pay $$$ and bring them to the vet who has to sedate them (not a good long-term option). This stress-free option turns nail trims into an interactive game you'll both enjoy!
Promising review: "Expensive but well worth the money. Nothing else had worked and my alternative was going to be putting my dog under anesthesia three times a year — much more expensive AND not healthy. Irena was hugely responsive when I had some questions regarding training my very polite dog to aggressively scratch at the surface. She asked for videos and gave me helpful tips in a timely manner. 110% satisfied." —Dan B
Get it from Amazon for $149.
7. A splurge-worthy hair and body mist with notes of vanilla, salted caramel, and pistachio that'll make you smell like you just walked off a sunny beach in Brazil.
Promising review: "I bought it because TikTok made me try it and upon spraying it smelled familiar. IMO to MY NOSE it smells like Amber Romance by Victoria's Secret, which I used to love, so overall I'm very satisfied." —Arlicia
Get it from Amazon for $24 (available in five scents).
8. A pack of double shower hooks to save you time when you wanna toss your dirty shower curtain liner in the washing machine. Now you don't have to remove the shower curtain too (and then inevitably hang it up backwards). And one certified genius even used the hooks as pant hangers. *mind blown*
Promising review: "I didn't realize how hard it was to move my previous hooks until we changed to these. We all had to readjust how we opened the shower curtain because it goes flying! Now we use a gentle tug. I love how easy it is to remove the outer curtain now to wash it, before I had to take everything off. Very satisfied!" —Kory
Get a 12-pack from Amazon for $6.99 (available in nine finishes).
9. A winterizer ball so there's less work for you to do when you uncover your pool next summer. Don't worry, you still have time to enjoy your pool this year — but when it comes time to shut it down you'll wanna toss in this ball, which helps keep the water clear by preventing buildup and staining.
Promising review: "I was skeptical but WOW! I just took the cover off my pool and it's crystal clear. You could swim in it right now! Ordering the next pill for opening. Very satisfied!!!" —Terry Mosley
Get it from Amazon for $24.30.
10. A slender storage cabinet for that odd bit of extra space between your toilet and the wall (or your toilet and the tub/shower) that is currently sitting unused because you're not sure what the heck will fit there.
Promising review: "This cabinet is perfect for those small spaces. I used the first shelf for my cat shampoo, grooming glove, and a cup filled with nail clippers, toothpaste/brush. Second shelf for my Clorox wipes and spray. The top lid for my nightly face wash essentials. Very easy to assemble. The cabinet is nice looking and sturdy made. I am very satisfied!" —Sondra Bingley
Get it from Amazon for $18.30+ (available in five sizes and six colors).
11. A 2-in-1 snack bowl because I guess these empty pistachio shells are just gonna...rest on my shirt until I'm done with the bowl and can toss them out. Wrong! This genius stacking bowl offers a tray for nut shells, fruit pits, and wrappers.
12. A Gold Bond neck and chest firming cream if you're currently paying the big bucks and not seeing results. This bottle is less than $15, and reviewers swear they're noticing a difference!
Promising review: "Noticed a change in my neck skin within days. I have already reordered and will continue to do so. I'm also using on my face and fine lines have almost disappeared. Wish I could get a bigger size, but it's not offered. Overall I'm very satisfied." —Lu Bryant
Get it from Amazon for $11.97.
13. A toilet seat lifter that'll save you from having to actually touch what's probably a very dirty toilet seat. It may also encourage your partner or roommate to actually lower the seat when they're done peeing...well...one can hope!
Promising review: "Great product! Highly satisfied. Being a germaphobe, this is great for me! I’ve already installed it, and I’m loving it. I’d highly recommend the product." —Amazon Customer
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $11.97.
14. And speaking of lifting things, a mattress lifter to elevate your very heavy mattress and allow you to more easily tuck in the sheets. No more straining your back, propping your mattress awkwardly on your knee or shoulder, or calling in backup when it's time to make the bed.
Promising review: "My spouse asked that I look into a product that helps lift a mattress, and she had seen this in an advertisement on the TV. This plastic tool aids in lifting a mattress so that sheets can be changed on the mattress. She told me that this product made it easier to lift the mattress, and that her hands no longer ached as much as they did without using the product. She is satisfied with the product, and if she is, then I am also. I would order it again." —Thomas Reed
Get it from Amazon for $26.95.
15. An oversized pullover with fleece lining so you already have something cozy you can slip into the *minute* the temp drop below 70 degrees.
Promising review: "I was looking for a heavier pullover to wear in my house for the coming cold months here in the PNW. I don’t like tight clothing so I wanted something a little oversized but not sloppy. This pullover is a heavier weight as it has a thin fleece lining. It looks very high quality and the gray is a soft gray, not too dark and not too light. I should mention the jacket itself is very soft. There is a little stretch, and I would have liked to have a little more across the shoulders, but it is not too tight. If you want to wear a shirt under this, you may want to go two sizes up. I am very satisfied and am going to order two more!" —Sjh
Get it from Amazon for $25.99 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and 25 colors/patterns).
16. A pack of Snug Plugs for anyone struggling with loose outlets. This'll solve the problem of plugging your phone before going to sleep only to realize the next morning that it fell out of the outlet and never charged.
Promising review: "Many of my appliances have a loose fit on my outlets, but with these in now I don’t worry about my appliances having a shortage because they fit so loose. Definitely a quick inexpensive fix to an annoying problem I had. Very satisfied." —Tania B. Delgado
Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $9.99.
17. A litter box odor neutralizer because I can smell your litter box through the computer screen — yuck! Just kidding!! A sprinkle of this deodorizing powder at the bottom of the litter box should do the trick and help keep your house smelling pretty much pet-free. (Despite your stinky gremlins trying to prove otherwise!)
18. And speaking of odors, some rear end wipes if your dog is boot-scootin' around the house, leaving a stinky trail in their wake. These cleansing wipes are great for putrid-smelling patooties, and they're gentle enough to use on the face too.
Vetnique was founded by veterinarian James Bascharon.
You should still talk to your vet to make sure that your dog's offensive odors are not a sign of any underlying health conditions!
Promising review: "My dog doesn't 'scoot,' but she is 13-years-old and doesn't have as much control of her back end as she used to, which sometimes results in accidents. I had been using baby wipes when she messed on herself, but they weren't very strong and her back end still smelled pretty bad. These wipes are super strong and completely neutralize the poo odor! I am very satisfied and will definitely buy again." —Rose
Get 75 wipes from Amazon for $12.99 (available in larger containers).
19. Some shoe markers that'll come in handy when you realize your white soles are looking a bit scuffed — or when you decide that you hate white soles and wish they were a different color entirely.
Promising review: "Huge difference after one use! Boosts look good as new from afar and will look pristine after a second coat is applied! Highly satisfied with this! Spared me from dropping the money on a whole new pair of Ultra Boosts!" —Albert Cartenuto
Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in six colors).
20. A Cup Cozy Pillow to make you feel like a problem-solving wizard. (I'm a wot????) The cup holders expand to fit bottles, cans, mugs, and cups, and they're insulated to keep drinks hot or cold. No more spilling hot coffee on your lap trying to balance your mug on your thighs! And it keeps all your essentials (phone, tablet, remote, game controllers, glasses, snacks, and more) nearby.
Cup Cozy Pillow is a family-owned small business.
Promising review: "I was happily satisfied with my new pillow cup holder for my couch! I was recently laid up after breaking my leg, and since I have a sectional without end tables close, this worked out perfectly! Even fit my large Hydro Flask or my coffee mug in the largest opening." —kgals
Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in a variety of sizes and colors/patterns).
21. An adjustable hanging rod so you can basically double the amount of usable closet space. It hangs from the existing clothing rod and adds a *second* rod underneath so you can make use of the dead space floating under your shirts, shorts, kiddos' clothes, etc.
Promising review: "Tthe price was right so I took a chance and am glad I did. The instructions were very easy to follow and assembly took less than 5 minutes. I was able to adjust the rod so I can actually hang two rows of jackets between the original closet rod and the adjustable rod. So far the adjustable rod has over 20 jackets on it, is still sturdy and with space for more items. I am very satisfied with the closet rod and would recommend it to others." —Robin L.
Get it from Amazon for $16.97.
22. A hanging legging organizer for freeing up space in your cramped drawers. If you're a "if I like it I'll just grab it in another color" type of person, chances are your dresser is stuffed to the brim with a veritable rainbow of leggings (or they're all black leggings...it me!).
23. A portable air compressor because gas stations can seemingly never be relied upon to have working air pumps. This can inflate a tire in under five minutes and get you back on the road or at least in good enough condition so you can make it to the mechanic.
24. A huge jar of Kopiko — a delicious coffee-flavored candy from Indonesia if you love the richness and flavor of coffee but could do without the bitterness. Lots of reviewers rave that this subtly sweet and creamy candy are the best after-dinner mints. (And just as many reviewers love them *any* time of day!)
Promising reviews: "100% satisfied! It's the perfect alternative to an after-dinner mint! Full of flavor and long-lasting." —Andrew
"Wanna have some coffee but no time? This little guy hits the spot. Tiny and sweet and just the right amount of coffee and sweetness togetherness." —Martyce
Get 200 candies from Amazon for $13.54.
25. An acetone-free nail polish remover that'll remove all the fun jewel tones and fall-appropriate shades (Lincoln Park After Dark amirite?) without drying out your nails. This gentle-yet-effective formula is designed for regular and shellac polishes.
Promising review: "I have been searching for something else to remove my nail polish with for some time. I ordered the nail polish remover not knowing what to expect. I thought that it was not going to do much. I was so wrong! The moment that it touched my nails the color was off! This works so fast. It smells way better than other nail polish removers. I also found that it was cooling to the touch. I am 100% satisfied with this purchase. Phenomenal product!" —Jennifer
Get it from Amazon for $7.19+ (available in two colors).
26. A cleaning gel to get rid of mold and buildup on your washing machine gasket (bet ya didn't even know you should be cleaning here). Let it sit for a few hours or overnight and then easily wipe it clean with a rag.
Promising review: "Very satisfied. I tried everything to remove black mold with no success. This product actually worked to remove the black mold. I applied the gel on the mold and left it sit overnight. I was amazed the mold wiped off with a rag." —Robin S. Johns
Get it from Amazon for $12.99.
27. A no-headache visor with UPF 50+ protection (meaning it blocks 98% of the sun's rays!) so you don't have to choose between sun protection and a throbbing head.
Promising review: "Very satisfied. Much better than past visors I have had that I couldn't wear more than 30 minutes, without causing pain. A little bonus, on a recent canoe trip, I fell into the water, went under and the visor remained intact! So it does fit snug, but doesn't press into your head. I plan to buy some other colors in the future." —JeanieM
Get it from Amazon for $20 (available in 34 designs).
28. A plush bath pillow for ultimate coziness the next time you're taking a bath. It won't slip, slide, or budge thanks to the built-in suction cups, and thanks to the padded headrest you won't end your bath more sore than you were when you first got in the tub. *gives current bath pillow a stink eye because it always gives me a crick in my neck*
Me to the creator of the headache-free visor:
