30 Things That'll Help Solve Your Small(ish) Sleep Problems

So you can finally catch those elusive zzz's.

1. A pack of LED dimming sheets because your computer charger, internet router, and other electronics have exactly zero business keeping you awake (or even just annoying you) with their overly bright lights.

Amazon

These dim 50–80% of the light, so the rest of the day you still know that everything's working the way it's supposed to! Although if you prefer, you can double 'em to block even more light, or go for the ~blackout edition~. They're completely removable and leave no residue behind, too!

Promising review: "This is the best thing you never knew you needed. I own a digital clock with the numbers displayed in red LED light, and every night I've blocked the light with a cover so it doesn't shine in my eyes as I sleep. Silly I know, but I like my room pitch black and cave-like. On a whim I bought this product. OH MY GOD! Game changer!! For the first night EVER I didn't have to cover the clock display before I went to bed!! I had no idea how big a difference this little dimmer could make, but I'm more than pleased with the result. I can still see the time display just fine, but now my room is a happy cave! Some commenters argue you could get the same effect using electrical tape but this product is easy to remove and doesn't leave a sticky residue at all, which can't be said for most tapes. I did notice a slight lag in response when I covered my TV LED sensor, so if you're trying to block something that actually senses inputs I would maybe not suggest this. Other than that, excellent product!" —Amazon Customer

Get a sheet of over 100 stickers in different shapes and sizes on Amazon for $4.29. If you have a big clock face you'd like to dim, also check out a similar product that you cut to size, $8.29 for two six by three inch–sheets.

2. A heated massager so you can relax on the couch while it soothes those knots and tense spots that keep you up at night. It's designed for your back and neck, but you can also use it on your thighs, hamstrings, and feet.

Amazon

It comes with two power cords, one that plugs into a regular wall and another that plugs into your car, making it easy to use on your commutes, too.

Promising review: "I purchased my first Zyllion on 5/24/2014. My little friend died tonight, 10/13/2018. This wonderful little gadget came to my aid multiple times a day, and never complained. I sat on it, dropped it, lay across it — virtually lived on that thing. It's been my go-to pal when I was sore from surgery, from work, from a long day in the yard. I have severe arthritis, bursitis, plantar fasciitis, frozen shoulder, joint pain, tight calves, and a replaced hip and shoulder. This modest little piece of equipment is phenomenal for loosening tight muscles and helping relieve pain. These guys are top notch, reliable little beasts." —white noise machine

Get it on Amazon for $44.95.

3. A weighted blanket — every time you wrap yourself in it, you'll feel gently cuddled, which can help you deeply relax despite the stress of everyday life. Plus many reviewers swear it helps them sleep better each and every night.

Amazon

In general, you want to go for a weight that's about 10% of your body weight plus one.

Promising review: "Before I received this weighted blanket, according to my Fitbit, I was averaging about four and a half hours of sleep per night due to pain. My first night with this blanket and I slept over seven hours!! Same for my second night. This is so comfortable and comforting. I’m recommending this to everyone I know!" —Jamie Eubanks

Get it on Amazon for $59.90+ (10 weights/sizes available between five and 25 pounds; five colors/styles).

4. Or a lightweight sleep pod that will gently snuggle you all through the night but still be perfectly breathable (so you don't sweat up a storm), thanks to its thin, stretchy fabric.

Brian Mundt / Hatch Sleep

I personally have one of these and sleep in it pretty much every single night; I didn't have much trouble going to sleep without it, but it definitely helps me fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer! Yes, it's basically a stretchy, human-size pillowcase, but it really does feel like a gentle cuddle or hug all over, all night long. Oh and it's machine washable, which is key for anything I use for 56+ hours every week.

Mal Mower, another writer here at BuzzFeed, also uses one and swears by it! Here's what she had to say in her Hatch Sleep Pod review:

"I recently replaced my weighted blanket with a Sleep Pod and I am never going back. I appreciated the comfort that I got from a weighted blanket, but it was so hot I wasn't able to last under it for long. It was also so heavy I couldn't take it with me anywhere. This design solves those problems. The fabric is breathable and so lightweight I can comfortably use it in the summer and I can throw it in my tote bag on vacations. I feel calm and comforted every time I get in. I've used it while napping, while trying to calm down before going to bed at night, and while sitting on the sofa/needing some extra stress relief when binge-watching Chernobyl got too stressful. I can't rave enough about this thing, but I'll certainly keep trying!"

Get it from Hatch Sleep for $110.

5. An ergonomic memory foam between the knees–pillow, which just might give anyone who's a side sleeper some relief from back, knee, or hip pain — at least, according to Amazon reviewers. Plus it has a strap, so you can turn over in the middle of the night without losing it to the swirl of blankets.

@everlasting_comfort / instagram.com

Of course, please go see your doctor if you have persistent/chronic back, knee, hip, or arthritis pain!

Promising review: "I am a side sleeper that has lower back pain in the morning. I picked this shape because my chiropractor recommended a pillow shaped like an hour glass to help my back. I have been using the pillow for over a week and my lower back feels much better in the morning. The strap keeps the pillow attached without having to be adjusted when I turn over." —CH

Get it on Amazon for $26.95.

6. A genuine mulberry silk pillowcase because it won't leave a wrinkly imprint for you to discover on your face in the morning only as you're running out to work, *and* it could help prevent any extra hair breakage when you toss and turn.

Brooklinen

Promising review: "LOVE! Can’t believe how long I went without this pillow case. Always heard silk cases were better for your skin and hair. It definitely helps tame my hair a bit, but the main thing I love is how comfortable the case is and how it keeps me cool during the night." —Maylynne T.

Get it from Brooklinen for $59 (available in off-white and grey).

7. An allergist-designed dust mite and allergen proof–pillow cover that will help block all allergens while still being perfectly breathable (read: not too hot).

Amazon

It's made from a tightly woven microfiber with a ~mean pore size~ of two microns, which means no allergens can escape, even if you put it on an old pillow. It also doesn't hold onto surface allergens, has a lifetime warranty, and is machine washable.

Promising review: "I went to an allergist who identified my most problematic allergen as dust mites, and recommended the Mission:Allergy products. I encased my mattress and pillows with their products, started washing sheets and all blankets weekly with hot water, and vacuum my bedroom, including under the bed, at least once a week. My allergy symptoms are substantially reduced and I can now breathe through my nose all night... and sleep! These bedding covers are not a miracle cure for all allergies. I would recommend testing to see if dust mites are actually a problem for you before investing the $$. If you're allergic to pollen this won't help. And I'm guessing that washing ALL bedding in hot water and regular vacuuming have also contributed to the improvement I've experienced." —Donna McMaster

Get one on Amazon for $20.95+ (available in six sizes; also see all of the Mission: Allergy products on Amazon for mattress encasings, comforters, and pillows).

8. An oversized but lightweight silky-soft sleep mask that will block out every bit of light without falling off your face multiple times every night, thanks to its two adjustable straps (one goes above your ears, and the other goes below).

Amazon

It has a little nose flap so the light won't leak in there, either!

Promising review: "Normally I don't write reviews, but I felt I had to say that this is the most comfortable eyemask I have ever worn. It's extremely soft to the touch. It feels so good on the face and completely blocks out any light. I don't even notice the two adjustable head straps because they are also so comfortable. I normally work 12 hour night shifts so I'm sleeping through the day. I always had issues with constantly waking up even with black out curtains because the sunlight was still getting around them, but since I've started wearing the mask, I have had no disrupted sleep, and I am dead to the world during the day with this on." —Chibimuffin

Get it on Amazon for $10.99.

9. Or a pair of blackout shades so you can completely block out whatever light insists on disturbing your evenings, like your neighbor's ostentatious "decorative house spotlights" that, besides illuminating their landscaping like its under FBI investigation, also shine SO BRIGHTLY in literally every window on the east side of your home.

amazon.com

They also help block some noise and can be an extra little bit of insulation in the summer or winter.

Promising review: "Best blackout curtains ever for the price. I've shopped all over and these are truly what they are advertised. I didn't think I would need blackouts, but I work nights and sleep till noon and these are absolutely perfect. The color is a rich navy which are difficult to find in store. Trust me when I say, I went everywhere: Lowes, Home Depot & Home Goods, Tuesday morning, Ross, TJ Maxx, Walmart, Target. No place had them in this color for this price. I love, love, love, Amazon Prime because I wasn't sure if these were going to work out, but they are above and beyond what I expected." —Josie Holdridge

Get them on Amazon for $25.95+ (available in three sizes and 19 colors).

10. A white noise machine with non-looping audio that can completely drown out any sounds that might disturb your slumber, so you can sleep just like you would snuggled up in a cabin on the side of a lake with absolutely zero neighbors.

Amazon

It has ten fan sound options and ten ambient noise options, a precise volume control, and a timer; and is small enough you can easily pack it for travel. Some reviewers even use it in their open office space.

Promising review: "This is so freaking great. I've been using white noise machines for years and years but ended up finding this through BuzzFeed. My old machine had looping audio and I hated it, so the fact that this is non-looping is everything. It's also very sleek and modern. I live in downtown Boston with construction sites literally boxing me in my building with noise nearly 24/7 between that and cops/fire trucks. This knocks out the noise and allows me to sleep or nap at any time of day without hearing anything." —ML

Get it on Amazon for $49.95 (available in two colors).

11. Or some cozy fleece headphones that make it easy to enjoy music or white noise while you doze off without the discomfort of wires and plastic OR the irritating sounds of your S.O./roommate/airplane seat-mates.

Amazon

You can also pull it down over your eyes to use as a sleep mask. It's lined with a soft mesh so you stay warm but don't get too hot. Plus when it comes time to wash the band (in the machine, naturally) you can take the headphones out, easily.

Promising review: "I've never slept better. I recently moved to my first apartment and was miserable because I'm near the garbage dump. The ground keeper compresses the trash that has a siren sound every morning 5:30–7 am waking me up. As soon as I'm ready to fall back to sleep, I'm disturb by cars with loud engines because I'm also on the main street. It's loud but these headphones have really blocked all the noise out. I also pull mine over my eyes so light doesn't disturb my sleep. I highly recommend if you're struggling with sleeping!" —micah

Get it on Amazon for $15.97+ (three colors available.)

12. A pack of flexible foam earplugs — they're ideal if you struggle with sounds but white noise just doesn't cut it or just plain bothers you, or if you're looking for a somewhat more budget-friendly option.

Michelle No / BuzzFeed

The biggest downside here: you may not be able to hear your alarm in the morning. But if you're not falling asleep or sleeping well because of other sounds anyway, these still could be worth a try.

Promising review: "I purchased these ear plugs because I suffer from something called annoying neighbors syndrome. I would liken the sounds coming from below and across from my apartment to that of an auto shop or a construction site. The contour capabilities of these ear plugs make them incredibly comfortable to wear. After inserting the ear plugs and allowing them to adjust, silence fell over my bedroom. I was able to sleep free from the obnoxious noises that surround my apartment. My only complaint is I missed my alarm by an hour and a half while the ear plugs blocked every bit of noise. These will be the only ear plugs I wear from now on. And I'm considering a louder alarm." —Claire

Get them on Amazon: 10 pair for $2.98, 50 pair for $11.69, or 100 pair for $13.25.

Michelle No, a writer here at BuzzFeed, also loves these — read her full Flents ear plugs review for more.

13. An antibacterial pillow mist because as everyone with chronic acne knows, we're "supposed" to change our pillowcases out like, every other night, but there's just no way that's going to happen. So instead, you can use this to help eliminate some of the dastardly acne-causing bacteria while also enjoying its lavender scent.

Amazon

Promising review: "I love this pillow mist —not only does It help keep my skin clear throughout the night but is also a relaxing and soothing scent. Will continue to purchase!!" —Brittany Anick

Get it on Amazon for $14.99.

14. An all-season duvet so you can cuddle up under its cozy, fluffy weight without getting too hot in the summer or too chilly in the winter, even if you're as picky as Goldilocks.

Amazon

As all bedding should be, it's completely machine washable, and like all duvets ought, it has loops so you can tie on your favorite duvet cover.

Promising review: "I love that it's reversible. It's nice and thick and the color is perfect. I have a cat and he sheds sometimes and the fur just wipes right off this comforter. I've washed this half a dozen times (because I'm spill-prone) and it's holding up perfectly. I would definitely recommend, it's a great price for something with such good durability and thickness." —TFBenitez

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes twin–oversized king and six reversible colors).

15. A pair of 95–100% cotton pajamas because they'll be completely breathable and cool even when you start sweating up a storm, and just happen to be quite well made (at least, according to reviewers) so they'll last and last.

Amazon

The shorts have an elastic waist with a drawstring, so you can get your perfect preferred fit; the top is (naturally) buttons. The polka-dot styles are 100% cotton, while the solids are 95% cotton and 5% spandex. They're machine wash cold and tumble dry low, and the company recommends sizing down if you're between sizes.

Promising reviews: "I'm so happy with these pajamas! :) The fabric is not see through, construction is excellent, and shorts are just the right length. I considered less-expensive versions of pajamas in this style from other sellers but decided to spend ten or so more dollars to avoid the risk of having to return poor quality or ill-fitting pajamas, and am so glad I did. These are worth every penny!" —clairek

"Love these PJ’s mainly because they are cotton. You stay cool and comfortable while asleep and while lounging around. I especially like the top because you can’t see through it while going without a bra." —Michelle C.

Get them from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in 12 colors/patterns and sizes XS–3X).

16. A pack of snore strips that you definitely need if your allergy or cold related–nasal congestion insists on waking you (and / or your partner / roommate!) with aggressive snorting noses multiple times every single night. These will help relieve the pressure so you can breathe easy.

Amazon

To apply it, you wash your nose with soap and water, dry it, then put the strip on and hold for thirty seconds. Also, if you're snoring because you have sleep apnea, you probably want to consult your doctor, first!

Promising review: "I use a nose strip every night so I will sleep better. Have done for years. I like this brand because it has 50 count as opposed to 26 or 30 in most other brands, i.e. Breathe Right (which is the most expensive brand on the market). They work well, I'd say even better than Breathe Right. The adhesive is affective but doesn't rip your skin off in the morning when you remove it. (Hint: You have to wipe your nose with alcohol before you put any nose strip on...noses are oily.)" —Ann

Get a pack of 50 from Amazon for $12.49.

17. The Five-Minute Journal, which uses ~science~ to encourage a positive perspective on everyday life, which just might help curb those racing thoughts you can't dispel the moment your head hits the pillow.

Julia Reinstein / Instagram: @juliareinstein

Basically, it takes a few questions that psychology knows help people out, and has you run through those each and every day, complete with an inspirational quote. Every morning, there's a space to jot down three things you're grateful for, three things that will "make today great", and a ~positive affirmation~ (which could simply be what one BuzzFeeder who reviewed the Five-Minute Journal called a "one-sentence pep talk"). At night, there are lines to write down three amazing things from the day, plus two things that would have made the day better. It may not be a true replacement for therapy, but it's a great tool.

Promising review: "The journal is a simple yet effective way to carve out time to begin and end your day on a high note. You are encouraged to write in your journal first thing when you wake up and I always find myself excited to start my day and begin to follow through with my intentions. At night, you can jot down three amazing things that happened that day, and a quick question about how you could have made today even better allows you to write out the one thing that is racing through your mind and I found that it helps me sleep better as I’m not dwelling on it all night. A few minutes for an entire day of positivity and gratitude!" —Amazon Customer

Get it on Amazon for $22.95.

18. Or a self-help workbook for anxiety, which could help you learn how to have more control over those racing thoughts, not to mention other anxieties in everyday life.

Amazon

A single workbook likely won't completely make your anxiety go away, but it could be a start! Some reviewers say they use it along with the help of a therapist who uses CBT; FWIW, CBT with a therapist seriously helped me with my own anxiety. (If you're interested in learning more, check out BuzzFeed's tips to find a therapist and how to start therapy).

Promising reviews: "I bought this workbook to help with my insomnia. After working through the book, I still have insomnia but I no longer have anxiety during the night because of my insomnia, to add to my insomnia. It's a good workbook. I recommend it." —Deb / Colorado

"It breaks anxiety down into specific cases and helps you deal with your particular panic attack. Even just reading the book is therapeutic. The tone is so calming, and I always feel better after reading a chapter. When you feel anxious, just go down the table of contents until you find the chapter that applies to your particular situation, even if you have read that chapter 100 times. It will help over and over again." —MagicMom

Get it on Amazon for $22.33 (a workbook for depression is also available).

19. Some Olly restful sleep gummies because they pack melatonin, l-thenanine, chamomile, and lemon balm (which, with their combined powers, can help boost your natural sleep hormones and help you feel relaxed) into a tasty piece of candy.

@ollynutrition / instagram.com

BTW, some Amazon reviewers report their gummies arriving melted, so if you live somewhere hot, consider finding these at a local store, instead.

Promising review: "I've tried other sleep products like the sleep drinks and other gummies but I keep coming back for these! They've worked the best out of any of the others I've tried! I fall asleep fast and stay asleep for the whole night. I also wake up feeling great! No hangover feeling at all!" —Jaime Arnold

Get a jar of 50 gummies from Amazon for $12.88 (also available in two larger sizes).

Learn more about the link between melatonin and sleep at the National Sleep Foundation.

20. Or a caffeine-free tea that's made with valerian, an herbal supplement that many people swear helps them relax and actually doze off, even after stressful days.

Traditional Medicinals / instagram.com

Promising review: "This tea works exactly as advertised. Sometimes I will lie in bed for hours because I can't shut my brain off enough to fall asleep. When I drink a cup of this before bed, I fall asleep and stay asleep all through the night! Steep the tea as directed for the best results: for 10–15 minutes, in a cup covered to keep the steam from escaping. This will give you the most of the valerian root goodness! I feel like it takes me a full 30–60 minutes after drinking this tea for me to fall asleep, so give yourself time to steep the tea and drink it. Valerian root can be bitter, but this tea is blended with other herbs to make the taste is quite pleasant. The results are worth every penny." —The Degamos

Get a box of 16 teabags on Amazon for $6.89.

21. A pair of blue light blocking glasses because all that screentime you get all day long — and especially in the evening hours — is probably cutting down on your sleep quality, and these can help.

Amazon

According to the National Sleep Foundation, the blue light that comes from all kinds of screens (TV, your phone, your computer, etc) delays your circadian rhythm and causes your body to produce less melatonin, an important sleep hormone, which makes it harder to fall asleep or stay asleep. While the best solution is to stay away from screens entirely for a few hours before bed, if you know that's not going to happen, these just might help!

Promising review: "My sleep has significantly improved since snagging these glasses. I use night-shift on my phone but I'm on the computer all day. These are a little yellow-ish to the eye, but it makes the computer even more tolerable." —Amazon Customer

Get them on Amazon for $39.95.

22. A cozy U-shaped body pillow that people love for pregnancy, but also can be supportive whether you have back or hip pain... or just want a consistent cuddle buddy every night.

Amazon

It has a machine-washable 100% cotton cover, so it can wash and dry along with your sheets.

Promising review: "This pillow saved me! I was not sleeping AT ALL. Tossing, turning couldn't get comfortable. I am not pregnant, I just needed additional support for my back which this provides and has helped ease hip and leg aches. It also keeps me in one spot so I don't wake myself up constantly moving around, but allows me to easily maneuver if I need to then fall right back to sleep. I throw the pillow itself in the dryer every other time I wash the cover and flip it over often sleeping on both sides." —Karen

Get it on Amazon for $39.99+ (available in three lengths).

23. An adjustable pillow — you're pretty much guaranteed to love it, because you can easily remove or add its shredded memory foam filling until your heart (and neck and back) are finally completely content.

Amazon

Plus they give you a 100-night sleep trial, so if you don't love it, you can return it for a full refund.

Promising review: "I have been using this pillow for almost a year and no other pillow is good enough now. It does have a faint odd smell at first but that goes away after a few uses. After some adjusting with the amount of foam I found my perfect comfort level and since then we've lived happily ever after. I used to just buy the cheap pillows from the store but now that I've owned this pillow for a year and have experienced the comfort and quality I've realized it is beyond worth the money. My boyfriend loves it too, he stole it from me for about a week and I could tell a major difference in my quality of sleep so I took it back from him and well, he bought one of his own!" —joyousjess

Get them from Amazon for $59.99+ each (available in queen or king sizes).

24. Or temperature-regulating pillows with a second moisture-wicking super power, so you can stay comfortable whether you're a hot sleeper, cool sleeper, or somewhere in-between.

Macy's

Get them from BuzzFeed's Goodful line, exclusively at Macy's for $24.97+ each (originally $50+; available in standard and king sizes).

25. An alarm clock to wake you up with a chill, gradual sunrise, the way all of our bodies ~evolved~ to wake up. You might just actually feel...what is this feeling, it's been so long since I felt it... refreshed in the morning?!?

Amazon

Just because you're a little lazy (or have trouble waking up to a regular alarm) doesn't necessarily mean you need the loudest alarm on the planet — if gimmicky, loud, fight-or-flight alarms have failed you in the past, maybe something chill is what you've needed all along. If you're considering getting the more expensive version, definitely read this Amazon review, by someone who's owned it for five full years with no problems!

Promising review "Oh my goodness! I bought this for my husband to replace an old school super annoying nuclear-level alarm clock which he would repeatedly snooze six or seven times. THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER GIVEN AS A GIFT. I didn't know my mornings could begin so peacefully! I am GENTLY woken by the light before it reaches it's brightest setting, and then the chirping birds sounds are so real. I thought they were singing outside my window at first! Now I don't mind when my husband hits the snooze, 'cause those birds are lovely! Makes dragging myself out of bed great!" —Amazon Customer

Get one with 4.0/5 stars on Amazon (and a sunset feature to help you fall asleep, as well as the gradual wake-up sunrise, and several alarm sound options like the birds) for $93.99. Or get one with 3.7/5 stars (but only the sunrise feature, no sunset, and only a "beep" alarm sound) for $37.49.

26. And / or a lamp that features five different color modes, so whether you're studying kinda late or just reading the latest hot novel, you can opt for the warmer orange or yellow settings that can help you fall asleep faster when you're ready.

Amazon

Promising review: "I LOVE THIS LIGHT!!! It's fairly sturdy, especially for the price, and the variable light colors are THE BEST!! Being able to use yellow light at night to help with getting to sleep while I'm reading, then change to blue light during the day with just a couple taps, is awesome. The variable light level control is super easy and convenient, and there are a ton of ways to reposition the light to meet your needs. As someone who prefers clean lines/contemporary design, I also love how it looks on my nightstand." —Shauna B.

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in three colors).

27. A two-inch memory foam mattress topper — it's an instant, easy way to upgrade a bed that's hurting your back or just plain uncomfortable because it's too firm.

Amazon

Promising review: "This has transformed my blah mattress into something I love! I've been spoiled sleeping on a memory foam (king size) mattress for a few years now. I'm currently renting a temporary furnished apartment with a small average mattress, and I wasn't sleeping well. I can already tell that this mattress topper will make a HUGE difference in my quality of sleep. It's perfect, and definitely worth the price! I laid it out while I went out to dinner (two hours max) and it was completely poofed up to normal size by the time I got home. It's seriously perfect, and better than I was expecting for the price." —Katie

Get it on Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes twin–Cal king).

28. Or a completely new memory foam mattress, if your main sleep problem = that you somehow ended up sleeping on a 15 year old hand me down–mattress from your parents house, and it legit has a spring poking you in the back.

Amazon

It has 2.5 inches of memory foam, 2 inches of pressure-relieving comfort foam, then 5.5 inches of airflow high density support foam, all CertiPur US certified.

Promising review: "I'm a flight attendant. I sleep in a lot of hotel beds. I know what good and bad beds feel like. THIS BED IS AMAZING. Think you'll miss the springs? No way. I promise. I felt the same. I sat there for 36 hours straight watching this bed rise in my kitchen festering the idea that I made a mistake. What is this? Why does it have to rise? I hate this. I hate new things. JK NOPE. I HAVE NO REGRETS! This bed cured my boyfriend's back pain. This bed cured my sleepless nights. I can sleep on my side without my spine feeling broken in half. I can sleep on my back or stomach no problem. We spent three days sleeping 'til 2pm." —Kimberly Wilkins

Get it from Amazon for $176.49+ (available in sizes twin–Cal king and four thicknesses).

Emmy, an editor here at BuzzFeed, has owned one of these mattresses for over a year now and loves it — for more, read her full Zinus mattress review. And if you want more options, also check out The Best Mattresses You Can Get On Amazon 2019.

29. And of course, a completely silent, noise-free bed frame perfect if whatever bed you're using now insists on squick-squeaking like a mouse anytime either you or your partner even like, moves an arm a little.

Amazon

Promising review: "Looked for 'heavy duty bed frame' and that’s exactly what this is. The 2” recessed edges make it so it fits inside of the side rails. It took about 10 minutes to set up, no tool required and was quiet, not a squeak at night. We are newlyweds, so we have really put it to the squeak test and it’s quiet as be. Extremely happy with our purchase. These are probably going to go in all our rooms because I know it will be no problem to get years' of use out of these." —Ryan Hughes

Get it from Amazon for $45+ (available in sizes twin–Cal king).

30. A plug-in dimmer switch so you can create some pre-bedtime ~ambiance~ of peace and relaxation, without completely taking the final step of turning off the lights entirely.

Amazon

It can be used on both incandescent and LED bulbs; it basically goes between the lamp's plug and the wall, then has a switch on a cord with the dimmer.

Promising review: "Used this to tone down an outdoor light string I use in a camp kitchen and sitting area that has LED Edison and incandescent Edison bulbs... which are bright when cooking, dimmed when sitting and enjoying the time for aesthetics. The dimming really made the Edison filaments noticeable.
No flickering and super easy install. No noticeable flicker in the LED's spiral (the bulb with the spiral) at all. The dimmer is protected from the elements under a canopy." —Fran

Get it on Amazon for $15.99.
