    59 Home Products From Amazon Our Readers Are Loving So Far In 2023

    Recommendations from the folks with the best taste I know of: you guys.

    1. A mushroom night light sure to banish any nightmares with ease, and make 2 a.m. trips to the bathroom a little bit less hazardous, all while being cute as a button (mushroom).

    2. A pack of houseplant sticky stakes so your plant collection can feel more "soothing oasis" than "as buggy as the literal jungle."

    3. A bottle of wood polish to restore your scratched, chipped, and dull tables, cabinets, and more to their former shine and glory. All you have to do is buff a bit on, and you'll be shocked at the results.

    4. A flameless candle lighter that's so much easier than matches or traditional lighters, even those long ones (WHY are they always so hard to light??) With this magical little beauty, you just press a button and go, no fuss. Plus they're rechargeable and the charge lasts forever; I've had one for probably six months and still haven't needed to charge it.

    5. And a luxury soy candle to use with it, with a super diverse range of scents. It's formulated to be slow-burning and long lasting, so you'll be able to enjoy it for a lot longer than other candles.

    6. A roll of window film so you can gain a little privacy, but without losing out on natural light — and with the bonus of gorgeous rainbows everywhere.

    7. A shower cat because wiping your hair on the walls is A) kind of yucky and B) will eventually lead to gunk and clogs. You just swipe your finger left through the bristles to trap the hair, and then swipe right to clear it out and toss it when you're done showering. Genuinely genius.

    8. A set of solar lights that are motion activated, so you won't have to stumble to your door in the dark again. Plus, since they're solar, you don't have to do any wiring — just attach them to any wall, and they're ready to go.

    a reviewer photo of the black solar light attached to a wooden fence

    9. A set of rug grippers because those curling corners are a major trip hazard, and slippy, slide-y rugs that you have to readjust every five seconds are truly the woooorst. With these, they'll stay down flat without damaging your floors or the rug itself.

    10. A patio furniture set that's compact enough to fit on small patios or balconies, but without sacrificing style or comfort. It's perfect for coffee, conversation, or just enjoying the sunshine after a long day.

    11. A bug zapper to make outdoor dinners and hangouts the chill and fun summer experience they should be, instead of the misery of slapping a mosquito away every two seconds, and still ending up with a zillion bites. It also works great indoors for flies or gnats, so she's truly a multitasker.

    12. A soil moisture meter perfect for anxious plant parents — just stick this in, so you can know when it's time to water, without any guesswork. Your leafy bbs will thank you!

    the green moisture meter stuck into the soil of a potted plant, on a windowsill with several other plants

    13. A set of outdoor string lights to give your yard the ambiance of a vibe-y, chic restaurant, even if you're just flipping hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill.

    14. A set of hanging flower pots that are much cuter and more versatile than a standard window box. You can hang these anywhere, and they're basically guaranteed to bring life and cheer.

    15. A Scumbug to soak up all the grossness that likes to float on the top of pools, hot tubs, and the like. Plus, they're reusable, so you can wash out all the grossness and pop it right back in.

    16. A tub of museum gel so you can secure your trinkets, tchotchkes and collectibles just like the pros do. A tiny dab on the bottom will protect them from kids, pets, and even earthquakes — and it's easily removable with no damage when the time comes to rearrange.

    17. A patio umbrella light that goes right around the pole so you can still read, chat, and just generally be illuminated even on cloudy days or after the sun goes down.

    a reviewer photo of the light on the umbrella pole illuminating a table full of garden supplies in a dusky backyard

    18. A pair of clawed gardening gloves so you can say goodbye to trowels; just dig right with your hands, pop in the plant, and you're done. Plus, they're excellent for pretending to be Wolverine, which is a pro for literally any product.

    a reviewer photo of a hand wearing the purple gloves with black plastic claws

    19. A container of rooting hormone that'll allow you to grow plants right from cuttings, AKA it's essentially a free plants for life hack.

    20. A set of hotel pillows so breathable that every side of the pillow is the cool side of the pillow, even the side you're currently lying on.

    a reviewer photo of the white pillows on a white bed

    21. An armless desk chair for the perfect combination of design and function. It's ergonomic, super comfortable, and also waaaaay more aesthetic than a standard desk chair.

    22. A set of furniture repair markers so you can cover up scratches and stains in basically any kind of wood, from the lightest oak to wood that's stained basically black.

    23. A hardwood pathway for the easiest garden path ever. No fuss with pavers, gravel, or removing plants or grass, you just roll it out and bam! Pathway! Plus, it's super easy to reposition or store for the winter.

    a reviewer photo of the wooden pathway going around the side of a house

    24. A minimalist floor lamp that might just look like a single rod, but can actually put on a complete light show. You can use the app or a smart speaker to adjust it to basically infinite colors, and even sync it to your music for a cool dance party effect.

    25. A set of magnetic garage door hardware to totally transform your house's curb appeal in literally minutes. It'll look like you got a whole new garage door, when all you did is stick some magnets on.

    a reviewer photo of side by side garage doors, one with the magnets applied and one without

    26. An inflatable pool that's a HUGE upgrade to your standard kiddie pool. This one's way bigger, has a built-in bench, and even cupholders!! Honestly, your whole family will basically live in this thing all summer.

    a reviewer photo of the blue and white pool in a backyard with a black hose hanging over the edge

    27. A pack of garden ties to keep your flowers and veggies securely staked, instead of slumping over from the weight of the bounty of tomatoes that'll (hopefully) grow.

    a reviewer photo of the green ties securing a tomato plant to a stake

    28. A pack of Green Gobbler pods that are an absolute necessity for anyone with a septic tank. Just flush one pod a month, and they'll release beneficial bacteria that eats away at the grease and fats that might otherwise cause costly (and stinky) issues down the line.

    a reviewer photo of a hand holding the blue packet in front of the bag of packaging

    29. A face vase because, honestly, face vase is really fun to say. And okay, also it's a fantastic ~artsy~ container for potted plants or cut flowers — basically anything will shine in a vase this cool.

    a reviewer photo of the white vase filled with tulips in front of a brick wall

    30. A set of shower curtain hooks that'll make a surprisingly big difference. They glide super easily, and the double hooks transform changing out the curtain from a process to something that takes two minutes flat, no sweat.

    a reviewer photo of the silver double hooks holding up a shower curtain and liner

    31. A sunrise alarm clock perfect for everyone who struggles getting up in the morning, especially if you need a super dark bedroom to fall asleep. The light comes on slowly, starting a little while before your alarm is set to go off, so your brain gets the memo that it's morning and you're able to actually wake up when the alarm does sound.

    a reviewer photo of the warmly lit alarm clock on a bedside table

    32. A pack of Wonder Hangers that hold so many clothes, you'll essentially have another closet's worth of space — with just the ten hangers in the pack, you can hold fifty garments, while still taking up about the same amount of space as ten standard hangers.

    a reviewer photo of clothes on the wonder hangers that takes up about half of the closet

    33. A magnetic screen door because it'll keep the bugs out but let you and your kids and pets go in and out with ease. You'll love not having to remind everyone to close the screen door every day for the entire summer, they'll love using it to practice their Kool-Aid Man impression. It's a win-win.

    34. An Amaranth vase so you can seriously extend the life of your cut flowers. You can twist the bottom to drain the water, and twist again for easy access to trim the stems. Forget flower food, Sprite, or any of the other hacks — this is how you get cut flowers to last for weeks.

    a reviewer photo of a colorful bouquet of flowers in the white faceted vase

    35. A quilted mattress pad to turn your cheap, thin mattress into something you'd expect at a luxury hotel. A ton of reviewers recommend adding this to an air mattress for guests — apparently it's a game changer.

    36. A sunset projection lamp for the perfect evening mood lighting. The colors are adjustable, so it's also great for parties, or as a ~dramatic~ lighting option for photos.

    37. A gardening stool so your knees can love your favorite hobby as much as the rest of you does. You'll be able to spend way longer without getting sore or tired, and your joints will thank you.

    38. A bottle of Wet & Forget shower cleaner because the name says it all, really. Just spray it on, wait 8–12 hours, rinse, and that's it! Do it daily if your long-neglected shower needs a little cleaning TLC. After it has cut through all the soap scum and grime buildup, just spray your shower weekly and you'll prevent buildup and stains before they even have a chance.

    39. A pack of plant food spikes so your lil' plant children can continue to thrive, no matter how green your thumb actually is.

    40. A standing weed-puller tool for those of us whose knees and lower backs will no longer tolerate hours of bending and kneeling, but who still want to have a beautiful, weed-free garden.

    a reviewer photo of the tool holding a weed above a large bucket of weeds

    41. A tub of The Pink Stuff so you can see what all the fuss is about. This TikTok-famous paste will remove even caked on stains with no muss, no fuss, and no scrubbing. It really might be magic.

    42. A super thin outlet concealer that also includes a three outlet extension cord, so not only are you getting rid of the look of annoying bulky plugs, but you also get an extra outlet as a bonus.

    43. A bed sheet wad preventer so you can ensure that you'll have a balanced load that won't leave you with soggy, tangled sheets at the end of it.

    44. An electric pressure washer because why play hours of PowerWash Simulator (yes, a real video game) when you can get the same satisfaction and also get your porch or patio easily clean with the real thing?

    a reviewer photo of a brick walkway, half pressure washed and half not

    45. A Bissell Little Green carpet and upholstery cleaner that looks like a friendly little robot pal but is actually the deadly enemy of any stain. It'll eliminate whatever you need it to, like the tiny assassin it is.

    46. A wall-mounted toothbrush holder to corral all of those unruly toothbrushes and supplies, so your counter or medicine cabinet can be finally free of them. Plus, it protects the brushes from gross bathroom germs, which is pretty vital, IMO.

    47. A drywall repair putty stick that looks like a giant glue stick, but instead of sticking pieces of construction paper together, it fills in holes and helps you get your security deposit back.

    48. A ChomChom roller so you can remind yourself what color your couches (and bedding) actually are, without all that pet hair covering them.

    49. A grout pen that's basically a paint pen you can use to refresh the grout that refuses to return to its original color, no matter how much you scrub.

    a reviewer before and after photo of their white and blue tile, in the first one the grout is dingy and in the second it's perfectly white

    50. A set of lil' glass jars with bamboo lids because if I've learned anything from those weirdly hypnotic TikToks, putting random stuff into a lil' jar automatically makes it ~organized~ and ~aesthetic.~

    a reviewer photo of the labeled glass jars with wood lids filled with q-tips and cotton pads on a tray with a vase of eucalyptus

    51. A set of Swedish dishcloths that'll basically replace paper towels in your kitchen. They're durable, reusable, and totally compostable — just like the Swedish flag, that's a big plus.

    a reviewer photo of a hand using the yellow dishcloth to dry a sink

    52. A bathroom rug so thick and luxurious it'll make the sadness of having to get out of a nice hot shower a little more bearable.

    53. A freestanding hammock because the summertime hammock nap is literally unparalleled. There's no better feeling than gently rocking to sleep in the warm summer sunshine — it's just science.

    54. A set of wool dryer balls that'll help cut down on static and reduce drying time, without adding any fragrances or chemicals. These are an especially good choice for drying towels because over time, dryer sheets will make your towels scratchier and less absorbent — but these guys will keep them feeling brand-new!

    55. A squeegee because when it comes to a mildewy tub, or a cloudy shower door, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Take two seconds to wipe everything down after your shower, and you'll save hours of scrubbing later.

    a reviewer photo of the silver squeegee hanging in a grey and black shower

    56. A stackable shoe organizer perfect for sneakerheads. This'll keep your shoes perfectly clean and orderly, while also providing great display space for some of your rarer finds.

    a reviewer photo of the clear boxes with colorful sneakers on the floor of a closet

    57. An air purifier because first of all, it literally cleans the air, helping you breathe easier by filtering out irritants, pollutants and allergens. But second of all, when it's time to change the filters, you'll be shocked by how much dust it's collected, and grateful that you didn't have to dust all that gunk off everything.

    a reviewer photo of the white air purifier in a decorated office space

    58. A Garbage Guard pest strip that'll prevent that awful moment when you take out a bag of trash and open the can only to be greeted by an enormous swarm of gnats. It also works on maggots, roaches, and beetles, is odorless, and works for four months, so you can have a bug-free summer (or at least your trash can can).

    a reviewer photo of the black bug strip attached to the lid of a green outdoor trash can

    59. And a toilet bowl-cleaning pumice stone for toilets with a really stubborn ring. If you've given up on ever getting it out, trust me and try the Pumie.
