1. A reviewer-beloved veggie chopper if you've got pounds of produce in your fridge just waiting to be prepped for dinner and absolutely zero desire to spend more than five minutes chopping it all. No more tears because the recipe calls for diced onions!
Promising review: "Best vegetable food chopper I have purchased. I have tired numerous ones, and I'm always disappointed. I have eliminated more than half my time chopping and dicing vegetables and food using this. I was leery of the quality from the reviews, but I figured give it one more try. The worst that could happen, it would be one more gadget that my kids would have to dispose of in my cabinets. I must admit, I'm glad I did purchase this vegetable chopper. Very satisfied with this chopper; worth every penny and more." —Di

2. A chew-resistant plush toy to keep everyone happy. It has an ultrasonic squeaker that only your dog can hear = you can watch TV, do work, read a book, take a nap, etc. without the incessant high-pitched squeak of your pup nomming on their toy. And there's no stuffing inside so you won't need to clean gator guts!
Promising review: "Satisfied customer and dog. Love these toys! My dog loves her squeaky toys, but it can get old having her squeak them. This is the best of both worlds. Our dog loves to squeak them, but we no longer have to hear the squeaking. It just sounds like a puff of air when she pushes on the squeaker. I can tell that she can hear the toy because when I press it and she isn't looking, she turns. So, it seems to work. She has ripped the legs and tail off, but the body is durable enough that she hasn't destroyed it yet." —Melody

3. A pack of food spikes for forgetful gardeners who have killed one too many plants. Good thing these li'l guys will feed your plants for up to two months continuously.
4. A large capacity rotating makeup organizer that'll neatly store your makeup and skincare so you can reclaim the already limited counter space in your bathroom.
Promising review: "I really like this product; it can fill a lot of items. I use it more to fill accessories, school stuff, and then some products. It’s actually really sturdy, and it can be adjusted with the stuff on the side. Putting it together was really easy, and I had no conflicts on that matter. The capacity this thing can hold is a lot. I had a lot of stuff all over the place, and now, it’s more well organized. Very satisfied with this purchase, and it's well worth the price. It also came very well-packed, and it’s really good, and it spins." —Emily Weng
Get it from Amazon for $34.99.
5. A pack of bottle-cleaning tablets so you can reclaim your favorite thermos from the pile of forgotten mugs. These tablets will lift old stains and odors so your cups are finally usable again.
Promising review: "Wow! It feels like magic. I used this in my coffee carafe and was amazed by the result. I was looking to replace my thermal carafe because I was so fed up with being unable to get it clean looking. It was so stained from daily use that I thought it was a lost cause. I literally used everything: CLR, bleach, Bar Keepers Friend, and nothing worked. When I got this product, I was skeptical that such a small amount would actually clean my carafe. After one tablet for about an hour of sitting, I saw more results than I have seen in my many other methods. It removed just about all the stains. I was shocked. I can see clean metal now, and I wasn’t expecting that. I will also add that this result required no effort on my part. I literally just dropped the tablet in and walked away. That’s it!! I have actually never written an Amazon review before, and I am just so satisfied and pleased with this product that I had to share with the world. Enjoy this product and feel confident with your purchase, you won’t regret it!" —Jennifer Hewins

6. A "flossing toothbrush" because you could be the world's best toothbrusher and still be missing some spots. This brush has two types of bristles: flossing bristles that are 10 times thinner to really get into the grooves between your teeth and regular firm bristles that are designed to last longer than the nylon bristles your current toothbrush probably has. Reviewers say it's gentle yet effective, even on sensitive teeth!
Mouthwatchers is a small business established by Ronald Plotka, DDS.
Promising review: "Pleasantly surprised and satisfied. It's soft bristled and cleans thoroughly. The brushes aren't as thick or rough like drugstore toothbrushes, and they feel as if they're getting into tight corners. I was DEFINITELY surprised at how well-made this toothbrush is. I don't often go back to the same product 'cause I prefer to 'test the waters' with different brands, but this is going to be a steady constant for me." —Natalie

7. 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!
Promising review: "I cannot believe how nice this mask turned out to be. You apply it with the mini spatula it comes with, and slowly, it starts to foam up. After a few minutes, I wet my fingertips and started rubbing the foam down into my skin. It felt weird at first because for a minute there, I couldn't get the product off my face, but once I started to wash it away, it came right off. My skin felt tight after, and I applied my toner with no weird reaction. My skin also appeared nice and bright, so I'm very satisfied with this!" —MMM
Get it from Amazon for $11.88.
8. A Bluetooth scanner for your car to tell you if your check engine light means your gas cap is loose or if you need to get your butt to a mechanic. You can also learn if it's time for an oil change and view real-time health data about your car using the accompanying app.
Promising review: "My wife had been driving around in her 2006 Beetle convertible for weeks with the little idiot light on. She hadn't noticed any change in the car's performance, but we had already decided to donate the car to charity, and I wanted to know why the light was on. I had looked at OBD II sensors previously and an ad popped up for FIXD. I ordered one which arrived the next day. After setup, I ran the diagnostic and up came Error Codes P0411 and P0455, both related to the EVAP system. Sure enough, the gas cap was loose. I tightened it, re-ran the test, and the problems were gone. I used the FIXD to turn off the light and didn't spend any money on unnecessary repairs. I've only used it once, but so far, I'm completely satisfied with the product and the ease of use." —John E

9. K18, a leave-in reparative treatment for anyone who's put their hair through the wringer. It's fan-flipping-tastic at restoring moisture and softness in your strands if you frequently bleach or chemically treat your hair, or if you use heat-styling tools often.
I bleach my dark brown-black Asian hair blonde every six to eight weeks, so I was immediately intrigued when I first heard some stylists at my salon raving about K18. And it turns out the rest of the world loves it, too, because it was sold out at Sephora the first time I tried to buy it. I eventually snagged a mini bottle and was gobsmacked at how much softer my hair was. Seriously. I spent the whole day touching my hair, and even my boyfriend agreed that my mane was noticeably silkier.
Olaplex was my go-to before I tried K18, and I still stand by it as a product, but I really love that K18 is a leave-in treatment rather than an in-shower mask. Having to let the Olaplex sit for 10 minutes felt like forever, especially when I wasn't taking an everything shower (you know, the ones where you exfoliate and shave). With K18, you let it sit in your hair for four minutes post-shower to activate, and then, you can style your hair (or just let it air dry like I do).
I've found that my hair is softest the next day, so don't be discouraged if your hair looks or feels the same the day you use it. One last thing: It is pretty pricey, but a little goes a long way. The 5 mL tube I bought has lasted ~five washes, and eventually, K18 can become a maintenance product so you won't need to use it every time you wash your hair.
Promising review: "Using K18 hair mask has totally changed my hair life. I’ve been amazed by the results: My hair has a new texture; it feels softer and restored after just using it for five days. My frizzy and damaged hair looks better than it has ever looked. This is my new hair product that I will totally recommend to anyone. Super satisfied with it also." —sarpxoxo
Get it from Sephora for $75 (also available in a mini size).
10. A handheld mini vacuum that'll suck up the pet hair, sand, dirt, and mud that's embedded in your car's carpets.
Promising review: "For the price, I’m satisfied. I do Uber, and it’s a chore and hassle trying to find a good vacuum while on the go. And sometimes, I need to vacuum my car more than once a day. This makes it simple and convenient; it gets the job done, and I’ll be saving time and money. Worth every penny. And the attachments allow me to get into those tight crevices by the seats. Something you’ll never do with your local public vacuum." —Quinton M Rivers
Get it from Amazon for $31.99+ (available in white and black and in a cordless version).
11. A pair of joggers so soft and cozy they'll be your go-to for lounging, running errands, and exercising. Reviewers say they're not too baggy nor are they too loose, so prepare to feel like Goldilocks!
Promising reviews: "I feel very satisfied with this purchase. The joggers run perfect, and it’s very comfortable. I love it!" —Verónica
Get them from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and 15 colors; reviewers love this plus-size option, too).
12. A Baseboard Buddy because it makes cleaning easy when the dust and cobwebs are up high or down low thanks to its 4-foot extendable pole. Don't be too slow to add this to your cart! Your dirty baseboards, ceiling fans, grates, and molding are quaking.
The kit comes with one Baseboard Buddy and three reusable pads which can be used wet or dry.
Promising review: "At first, I didn't think much about it. ... Then, I used it. It is incredible. The pole spins in any direction and secures tightly in place. The thick, absorbent cloth can be removed, washed, and put back within seconds. I cleaned my woodwork and ceiling fans without effort. Extremely satisfied." —Donnagnida
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
13. An anti-humidity spray if you want to give humidity a metaphorical middle finger. This spray creates a waterproof coat around your hair that blocks out moisture (that eventually leads to frizziness). As if that wasn't already magical enough, this effect lasts up to 72 hours or through two to three shampoos!
Promising review: "I wear hair extensions, so I'm always looking for a product that can moisturize and add a lot of shine. This is the only product I tried in the last two years that actually does as advertised! All the other products I've tried prior to this are always in very tiny little containers, and this one is a nice-sized bottle that lasted me for at least a month; usually, the other products last maybe a day. The only thing that I'm not so fond of is the price, but it is worth every penny, so it's kind of hard to dispute that LOL. Just know that if you do splurge on this product, you will be satisfied and absolutely thrilled to see how soft and beautiful your hair looks again. I highly recommend!" —bridgett kinsey

14. A set of magnetic measuring spoons to ensure that 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda is actually 1/4 teaspoon and not just a guesstimate because you lost the 1/4 teaspoon measuring spoon in the abyss of your kitchen drawers and have been eyeballing half of the 1/2 teaspoon ever since.
The set comes with: 1/8 tsp, 1/4 tsp, 1/2 tsp, 3/4 tsp, 1 tsp, 1/2 Tbsp, 1 Tbsp, and a leveler.
Promising review: "I like how you can get to the spoon you want to use without having to remove it from a ring or key chain. With the magnetic spoons, they all stack together when storing them. I'm well satisfied." —William of Florida
Get them from Amazon for $19.97 (available in two colors).
15. A reparative K-beauty snail mucin essence for rejuvenating your face, lightening hyperpigmentation, and prepping your skin so it's ready to drink up all the benefits of your moisturizer.
Promising review: "My skin is so smooth. I don't usually write a product review unless I am satisfied or impressed, and COSRX did a good job! It is great for moisturizing and skin smoothing. I used it, too, before and after micro-needling. My face is so refreshed and so smooth when I wake up in the morning!" —fey
Get it from Amazon for $19.71.
16. A shower door cleaner that'll remind you that no, you did not opt for frosted shower doors. Wipe away hard water stains, calcium buildup, rust streaks, and more — just try to not walk into your sparkling clean shower doors!
Promising reviews: "Very satisfied with this product — would purchase again!!" —SophieAnn
"This product works beautifully. I tried a lot of products to remove the hard water from my glass shower. I have to admit the first time I used it with a cloth it was not very effective. The second time I used a non-abrasive sponge for glass, it turned out beautiful just like the first day the glass was installed." —EJP
Get it from Amazon for $11.59.
17. An AirFly wireless transmitter so you can watch the free in-flight movies with your Bluetooth headphones even though you forgot your corded earbuds.
It also comes with a USB-C charging cable, travel pouch, keychain holder, quick-start guide, and a manual.
Promising reviews: "Very satisfied with the product! Easy to use and carry everywhere. No lousy audio quality playing from my iPhone through this device and super high quality audio playback!" —Amazon Customer
"I love this gadget. I fly a lot, and this works on the majority of wide-body planes I’ve taken over the past six months. Just plugs into one of the three-prong outlets (or single outlet in economy), and you can connect any Bluetooth device. Doesn’t always connect on the first try as I have multiple devices that my headphones are searching for, but if you turn off all other devices, it seems to connect right away. Once connected, it works for many hours. A few planes I’ve taken recently (Qatar Airways) have USB charge points so close to the headphone jack that you can even plug it in while it's working and never lose the charge. Highly recommend for travelers." —Joseph Britto
Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in three styles).
18. A Mielle rosemary mint scalp oil because TikTok is absolutely obsessed with this so you better grab it before it sells out. This biotin-infused hair-strengthening oil helps smooth split ends, moisturize dry scalps, and deeply nourish 3A–4C hair.
Promising review: "I am very satisfied. I've had several issues with my hair the past few years, and this oil has helped a lot in very little time. I'm shocked as I didn't even think results could show up so fast. My hair is less damaged, not as oily and in way better shape than before I used this. Highly recommend it." —Bhumi
Get it from Amazon for $8.60.
19. A pack of furniture touch-up sticks if your dining room table has lots of little scratches you've been strategically covering with placemats and table runners. Well, now, you can fill 'em in without guests even knowing they were there to begin with.
It comes with: six color markers (in colors maple, oak, cherry, walnut, mahogany, and black), six wax sticks, and a wax stick sharpener.
Promising review: "I’ll tell you what. For 10 bucks, I’ll be buying again. I only wish there was a larger pack of one color. I have almost seven-year-old black laminate flooring upstairs in the primary bedroom and three other rooms. Several dings and light scratches in all rooms. Just take your time, and do it right. My wife could not notice where I made the repairs in our room. She knew where the good size ding was in one area, but she couldn’t see the repair until bending down and really focusing. The wax crayon works great. I already know after doing the floors, the scratches we have on our furniture here and there will look awesome as well. I would have to say black laminate flooring is the biggest challenge of all touch-ups. The rest is downhill. Very satisfied and will be returning for more." —Rey Rivera

20. A hair removal device designed to permanently reduce hair growth at home so you can skip the $$$ laser hair removal treatments.
It's safe to use on your bikini line, upper lip, chin, face, armpits, back, chest, stomach, arms, and legs. Do not use it on your eyebrows or on tanned or tattooed skin.
Promising review: "I have been considering buying an at-home laser hair removal device for awhile. I've paid around $700 getting professional laser hair removal at salons, getting pretty good results. I wanted to start doing more laser hair removal treatments, this time on my chin and bikini line, but I didn't want to spend so much money. I didn't have super high expectations, because how could I get results with something so affordable (relative to the salon treatments)? But OH MY GOD, I have RESULTS!! I've done five treatments on my bikini line on Level 5. I have fair skin and dark hair, which is why I started at the highest level. Two months later, almost all of the area I treated is hair-free! I cannot believe that this device was SO effective. I've also treated my chin a number of times, but without the same results. However, I've been told that chin hair is very hormonal and is a lot more difficult to remove, so I'll keep at it on my chin. I am just so happy with the results of my bikini line. This thing does work! I was a little worried about the eye protection. At salons, they wear heavy duty goggles to protect their eyes. I wanted to make sure that my eyes were safe, so I've been doubling up on the googles by wearing a pair of tanning goggles underneath the glasses that it came with. I felt pretty safe doing that. Overall, I'm very satisfied with my purchase!" —Jennifer P.

21. Burn After Writing, a TikTok-famous guided journal for helping you spend some screen-free time exploring your feelings; reflecting on the past, present, and future; learning about yourself; and letting things go by engaging in thought experiments and answering incisive questions.
Promising review: "I spontaneously bought this journal. The next day, when I saw it was being delivered, I convinced myself that purchasing it was a mistake and a giant waste of money. When it got delivered, I already had no interest in it. But I opened it anyway just to see. The first page I randomly flipped to had a question that hit me hard. It said, “Would your 10-year-old self be proud of you right now?” I have been dealing with a major trauma lately and have been yearning for an outlet or some peace of mind. After I saw that question, I took the journal more seriously and started reading it page by page and honestly answering the questions as they came. ... I’ve barely hit the surface of this journal, and not only am I incredibly satisfied with my purchase, I feel like a weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. Maybe something this simple will be my peace of mind." —Sara Pasteur

22. A plug-in color-shifting mushroom light that'll keep you company because the dark can be a little spooky.
Promising review: "I knew I would like this little nightlight, but I didn't know how much I would like it. I wish every product I bought was as satisfying. Not only does this cute little mushroom nightlight change colors, but it's also super pretty. It has a sensor on it that tuns it off when it isn't dark. It's the perfect brightness, and the light is very soft and pleasant. Basically, it's perfect." —Brice

23. A car door protector so your pooch can hang their head out the window and catch a breeze without you worrying about them scratching the leather on the door sides.
Promising review: "Exceeded expectations in my 4Runner. Very satisfied customer. Bought this to protect the doors and especially the padded portions on the upper part of the rear doors on my 2006 4Runner. My 65-pound Golden Retriever puppy likes to put his paws on the door to look out, and his claws were creating permanent dents in the soft-touch plastic. Received in good condition, and the fabric is heavy duty. Secondarily, they match well in the gray interior. I was skeptical they would stay in place because the tabs that go in the window channels slid in easily and don't seem to 'lock' in the window channel. In use they work perfectly and don't move at all, even now that he is 65+ pounds. I am 100% happy with these after about a month of use, and they are holding up great with no signs of wear. Would buy again." —old john

24. And speaking of protecting your vehicle, a pack of car side door guards because you've experienced the pain of your kiddos dinging the car door on the garage wall after they carelessly throw open the car door.
Promising review: "I am very satisfied. I will buy more for family and friends; they like it, and I love it." —shanique mitchell
Get four guards from Amazon for $10.99.
25. A makeup bag that opens flat if you're not interested in spending precious minutes rooting through travel toiletries trying to find a specific eyeliner pen. This waterproof and washable bag lays flat so you can see everything that's inside it (which could be a lot tbh, since reviewers say it's quite roomy).
Promising review: "I bought this bag to keep my small testers of perfumes in it. It has very good quality of material, opens to a large flat bag, easy to look for things in it. Love the material inside, which you can wipe clean or dry. I would buy again; very satisfied." —Marketa Sistkova
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in seven colors and two sizes).
26. A portable kid's chair to grow with your kiddo and ensure you absolutely get your money's worth. It has three modes — sitting, standing, and big kid mode — and works for ages baby to 8 years old.
Promising review: "I’m extremely satisfied with this chair. The back is nicely padded for comfort. The harness straps are secure. I put my 3-month-old in the chair and was confident she was not going anywhere. The legs are very supportive and keep the chair balanced. This chair will not easily tip over at all. It’s easy to set up, just one push down to lock it in and pull up to close. It is a touch and positive lock in place to open; it won’t accidentally close. We have used this chair at home so far but can’t wait to use it camping and at the beach." —MH
Get it from Amazon for $72.79+ (available in five colors and in a duo style).
27. A drinking cap for transforming hazardous bottles of water or chocolate milk into kid-friendly vessels that aren't at risk of spilling their contents all over your couch.
Promising review: "Hands down one of my best Amazon purchases for my girl! I love finding hidden gems like this to make parenting a little easier lol. We go camping a lot, and these are lifesavers and save me so much time washing and rewashing sippy cups! Plus, my daughter can now be trusted with her beloved Danimal yogurt! A win for mom and a win for my very satisfied and not-yogurt-covered 1.5-year-old! Great idea!!" —Ab223
