Promising review: "We had purchased the Minerologie puzzle from Cavalinni Papers at our local Barnes and Noble and did it during a snow storm, six hours completed it from start to finish so we had to get another one! The butterfly one has been much more challenging and we are excited to complete it and frame it." —Thera

I have two of these shelves in white/oak and they're just what I was looking for. Sure, they're more expensive than the units you can get at Ikea, but you can tell the difference in quality. Last time my mom visited (oh, pre-quarantine life), she actually asked if they came with the apartment because they fit so well in my living room.
Promising review: "I love this shelf! I needed something tall to fill empty space and store books and plants. Each shelf is very heavy duty, so I can't imagine any bowing would occur in the future, unless it's got too much humidity. Before we put weight on the shelves, it had gaps between itself the wall, but it balanced itself out after adding books. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this shelf. It's definitely going to last longer than anything you could but at Ikea and it has VERY little wasted/unusable space. Just do it! I put it together myself, but I had to hold it steady/leveled while hubby secured it to the wall. It's not impossible to do alone, but get a second person to at least hold it still for you." —Mrs K3NNYB0Y

Promising review: "OMG, these chairs are not only GORGEOUS, but they are sturdy, and look expensive and well-made. Just love them. Buy them. You won’t regret it. And they are somewhat heavy and don't feel light and cheap. And the painting on them was beyond my expectations." —Liz

Promising review: "Beautiful box, looks much more expensive than it is. Elegant and high end. I’m using it to store device chargers on our coffee table. The rectangle shape is perfect, I only wish it came in a larger size. The inlay all lines up as it should, there are no wonky seams. Just ordered a second one—absolutely perfect!" —Maggie Rubenfeld

Promising review: " Installation was quick and easy, it's very very slim to the wall profile wise. The heat output is great and it's quiet, it's heating approximately 1000sq foot basement to comfortable levels. I was frozen down here, now I just set the fireplace on low and it's 72 degrees. Plus it looks awesome, the remote is easy enough to use. I've had tons of compliments on it." —m.code

Promising review: "I absolutely love this rug! I wanted a farmhouse look and so I ordered this rug for my dining area. I am pleased that it is softer than I imagined it would be. I thought it would be course and itchy, but it's not! Love love love it! I got the 6-foot round rug which will eventually sit under my new dining table. It has been down for two days now and the rug has almost completely relaxed too, which none of my other rugs have done so quickly." —Vicky Barboza

Promising review: "I exclusively have fake plants. I can't even keep a real succulent alive for an afternoon, and they literally don't need anything to live. As a result, I would consider myself somewhat of a connoisseur of prosthetic foliage. I hate fake plants that look fake. This is the least fake looking fake plant in my house of fake plants. Sometimes I find myself trying to pick the olives because I forget it's fake. If only these plastic olives tasted as good as they look. They don't. They taste terrible." —Ian

Each unit runs off of three AAAs (get a 36-pack here before you forget!) and an included remote lets you set the light to different brightnesses and schedule a timer for15, 30, 60, or 120 minutes.
Promising review: "For the price you can’t beat it. Super easy to install and lightweight. The gold had a slight orange tint to it, so be mindful of that. I actually just taped over the light and spray painted ours with gold spray paint I had left over and then they were absolutely perfect." —Paris Seder

Promising review: "GET IT! I was looking for a desk to spice up my room and this is IT! It came pretty much assembled and all I did was attach the legs so it took about 30 minutes total from unpacking it to putting on the legs. Stunning piece and it is very sturdy. I love the way it compliments the room!!" —Emely

Promising review: "At first I thought the price was a bit steep...but as soon as i received the planter I was thrilled with it. It comes with everything you need and it looks really nice and clean. It already has a drain hole...also comes with a plug if you wanna plug the hole up. Comes with filler so that the water can drain easier. The saucer is not attached to the planter but when placed underneath it looks as if it is and looks really modern and clean. Also came with a little net to put over the drain hole so that the dirt does not leak out into the saucer. Very cool product and I highly recommend it!!!" —Wojciech Kielar

Promising review: "I am very happy with this lamp. I was a little worried about the quality because of the low price but I really had nothing to worry about. It is an excellent-quality lamp. The base is very heavy so it wont easily tip over, which is a problem with another similar-style lamp I have in my living room. You can adjust the light to just about any direction, which is also a nice feature. I purchased this to light my desk area. It turns off and on via a touch sensor and also dims to different levels. The light itself is very bright and I can see this being an ideal lamp for crafting while sitting in a rocking chair or on the sofa." —Happy in the OC

Promising review: "Oh, she’s cute alright. Really great piece, well made, super comfy, and love that it’s designed for small spaces. The ottoman tucks away perfectly! I’m in love with it more than I thought I would be. One thing to note is don’t lean super forward...the chair isn’t very heavy to begin with so if you lean too far forward, the chair will tip forward with you. Other than that, it’s perfect!" —Rosanne Chan

Get it from Eucalyptus Blooms on Etsy for $14.39+ (available in three or five packs).
Promising review: “Buy it!!!!! Absolutely stunning little dresser/night table. I am blown away by how well it's made and how well it was packaged. You can see that the particleboard that it was packaged with on top is sturdier than most Ikea furniture! I love this style and have not been able to find anything like this in stores. Each piece is unique since it's real wood! The drawers are soft closing and deep. It comes ready to go, aside from the legs which you must attach. I had some issues and customer service was quick and solved my issue! I will be purchasing additional furniture from this company and have already recommended them to my sister. I can't stop staring at it ❤️” —Carmen Petru

Promising review: "Love, love, love! It’s the perfect farmhouse accent! It’s versatile and very pretty. It’s not long enough to run my mantle length, but I’ve had several uses for it so far. It just brings pretty to any space you want to pop. It’s thick, but not too thick either, and the beads are smooth and well-made." —May@36

Promising review: "This was everything I had hoped it would be. It is light, easy to hang, and just beautiful! The weight really helps in the installation as I have plaster walls and can use those Command strips on this. Some mirrors are so heavy — this one isn't. It's just beautiful. Highly recommend. Quick shipping, too!" —Jane G Chlapaty

Promising review: "I was regretting spending a little more than my usual but I loved this design and color. I’m so happy I got it. I regret nothing. First the packaging was perfect!

Promising review: "This is 100% cotton with a spare, almost sophisticated floral print that would work well for any age group. The colors: a cross between true and sage green; a warm, golden yellow; outlines of warm gray; and the tiniest hint of pink. Surprisingly good construction (I love the zipper closure on the duvet cover) and *excellent* value for money!" —Alleeum

Promising review: "I agonized over buying a bar cart for my new apartment. I researched online EVERYWHERE and there were so many options that were either ugly, sold out, expensive, or didn't have any practical storage. As someone who lives in a small NYC area apartment, having some storage (and getting wine glasses and alcohol off my countertops truly makes a huge difference) it was important to me to find the right buy at the right budget. This is one of the nicer and cheaper solutions I found. I think the round edges make this bar cart look unique and elegant while also not taking up too much room. I love the handles and the fact it can roll around if I ever needed it to and it also stores quite a bit especially with the hanging glasses rack. I put it together myself and only had a bit of difficulty making screws line up with the predrilled holes but overall it was pretty easy to put together by myself. I love this bar cart and its one of my favorite purchases for my new apartment! Highly recommend." —Michele Reynolds
Get it from Amazon for $117.77.
Promising review: "OK, I am beyond thrilled with these curtains, they are very soft and solid (think heavyweight upholstery). They keep the light out and help keep the room noticeably cooler — the windows are south-facing and get full sun all day — this room gets hot in summer and the curtains make it so much nicer. I'd give these curtains a 10 if I could. Very happy and will be ordering more as rooms get remodeled." —Angelia Olson
Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in four sizes and nine colors).
Promising review: "I think this curtain rod is a great product. It is well made, has good hardware, and is a good price for this quality. I have purchased a total of three now. I love the matte gold in my modern farmhouse style home. It is a nice dark matte gold, rather than some products that are more yellow gold. I have a big window in my dining room that has quite a bit of weight on the curtain rod from velvet drapes, and it is not sagging at all. This will be my go-to curtain rod for my entire (new) home." —Aerus

Promising review: "I LOVE these pillow cases. I’ve been shopping around for something with a boho touch for a while and finally found these. I love that I can take them off to wash. They feel great and are made with great quality. The price point you can’t beat either for three pillow cases. I would definitely recommend!" —Josh

Promising review: "Love this light fixture! I have it in my kitchen. Really adds to the boho vibe. If you have a handyman around I'm sure they could install it. My husband did it in about an hour or so. Beware: It is rather large and in charge, but beautiful! May not suit a small area. In addition, the light bulbs it comes with are not dimmable so you may want to purchase three of those if you need it to dim. Very happy with the purchase overall!" —Sierra

Promising review: "Retired Florist here...These roses have a velvet finish, for the money they are amazing.. I gave a few to a cashier at the grocery store, and she jumped up and down.

I'm so pleased with this lamp and highly reccomend it." —SMK
