1. A set of reusable silicone food storage bags and containers so you can wave adios to wasteful single-use plastic.
This set comes with a small dish, medium dish, large dish, small cup, medium cup, large cup, sandwich bag, and snack bag.
Promising review: "If you're looking for a set of reusable bags to reduce your waste, look no further. This set is just about perfect. The eight-piece full set comes with cups (with circular flat bottoms), dishes (with elongated flat bottoms) and bags (for easy taking to-go without taking up a bunch of room). They're airtight, and just EASY PEASY to use — aka I don't have to track down a matching lid. Half-eaten oranges, leftover crepe batter, granola, all live handily in these pretty lavender containers. The pointed sides make for effortless pouring — everything from shaking granola into my morning yogurt to dispensing thin crepe batter into a pan for a weekend breakfast.
They're dishwasher-safe (on the top AND bottom racks), freezer-safe, AND microwave safe, so you can truly say goodbye forever to disposable bags. They haven't retained any sorts of staining or smells and wash up beautifully. At just over $11 a pop when you break it down, they're not *cheap* but when you add up box after box after box of plastic bags, you'll make up for the cost in no time flat. I haven't been ~on the go~ much in the past year (🙃), but when I do I'll definitely use these to bring snacks to the office. And they come in pretty pastel colors that personally just make me happy to look at in my fridge." —Maitland Quitmeyer, BuzzFeed Editor

Promising review: "This is a supreme product. The bags are made of thick, quality plastic. It is very easy to seal and to vacuum.

I highly recommend this product." —A.A.

Promising review: "Best product I have bought yet! I even purchased three more for my hubby and his sock drawer. He saw how great mine looked and wanted to use it as well. I have never been organized before, and I love the fact I can SEE where everything is now! I don't have to dig to the bottom of the drawer to find things. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this product!" —DaVincent

Promising review: "This was exactly what I was looking for! Mr. Lyons worked with me to get the exact measurements I needed. The workmanship was outstanding and the shelves were easy to hang. I chose to stain them myself to get a better match to my cabinets." —pmartin1002

Comes in a pack of six so you can organize 12 mugs!
Promising review: "I love these cup organizers. I have a small cabinet above where my coffeepot is and these have made it a pleasure to open that cabinet. All cups are organized and easy to get to. They stay right where they should be. No more stacking them inside one another and them falling over when I opened the cabinet. I also use these for some bowls in my dish set. Works great. I just ordered a couple more and I am going to use them for my china cabinet. I wondered when I first bought them because the price was a little high. Worth every penny and more. I can not say enough good about these." —ChefGirl

Promising review: "I bought this folder to keep our family documents organized and in one place. There are just the right amount of tabs for our birth certificates, passports, Social Security cards, car titles, will, degrees, etc. This folder is small enough that you can lock it in a home safe or safety deposit box. I let a couple of family members know where I keep this so that they can access it in case of an emergency. It is such a relief knowing that all these things are together and organized. I’m glad I bought this." —Katie
Get it from Amazon for $7.98 (available in 10 colors).

These are BPA-free, and recommended to hand-wash with mild detergent and water.
Promising review: "I liked the first one I bought so much, I bought another. It's nice to be able to find things in the refrigerator and be able to pull out the whole tray container to see what's in the back of the fridge. I don't know if this happens to you, but I find my way to the back every so often, and come to find out a jar in the back expired a year ago. Now I can see everything and use it. The only thing I didn't use were the egg containers, but a couple of friends were happy enough to take those off my hands." —BookBroke

9. An S-shaped hanger that'll provide the perfect solution for hanging pants, jeans, and even accessories or linens! I personally find hanging up jeans side by side on separate hangers takes up quite a bit of space. Well...kiss those days goodbye!
These durable, stainless-steel hangers can hold about five garments each!
Promising review: "My closet was a disaster area. I couldn’t find my pants, shirts, really anything. I’m so glad I bought this. The three hangers hold 15 pairs of pants total — that’s a lot less hangers! I have more space now." —Amanda L.

Promising review: "I use these hangers for shirts and tees. They allow me to easily find any shirt in my closet and take up very little space compared to single shirts on single hangers. I can also group shirts together by style or color on a single swivel hanger. I am now able to hang additional items in my closet without crowding. I bought this in white and the edges are smooth." —CAGH

12. A storage cabinet you can hang behind your door so you efficiently use every open space in your home.
It features eight shelves and is super easy to mount on door hinges.
Promising review: "This is a must-have for any small space. My bathroom has no medicine cabinet, just a mirror, and is pretty small, so storage is a huge deal. My girlfriend came across this item so I figured I would give it a shot being Prime eligible. The finish was flawless. I know it states it needs a two-person install but I put this together and hung it in about an hour by myself with very minimal effort and I'm sure if I did it again it would be significantly less time. This fits soo much stuff — it really is amazing and it does not impede any operation of the door. I can't fully explain how much I recommend this. I'm about to order the mirror version for my bedroom for colognes and little knickknacks to de-clutter the counter tops." —happy shaver
Get it from Amazon for $219.99.

Get it from Amazon for $25.99 (available in five colors).

Promising review: "The package came with everything you need to put the coat rack up, minus a pencil and drill. There was even a useful ruler inside so you could accurately measure how far apart your screws needed to be without tediously measuring from the rack onto your wall. It looks great, and is nice and sturdy." —Amazon Customer
