As someone who neither enjoys cooking nor is particularly good at it, the Always pan has made being in the kitchen feel like less of a chore. It's even made it, dar I say, bearable! Having one pan that can do everything means I don't have to second guess every cooking decision I make. I can boil and prepare pasta in it. And I can roast brussel sprouts. And I can make the perfect fried egg. And I can steam dumplings. The best part is that, everything slides so seamlessly out of the pan and onto the plate, which also makes clean up super fast and easy. Both the amateur (read: reluctant) cook and the more seasoned chef will enjoy creating fan favorites and new recipes in the Always pan!

Promising review: "I am so obsessed with this lights!! I posted it on my social media and within minutes my friends were asking where I got this. Did a lot of research after seeing a friend have similar lights. These ones added a touch of lasers and it oscillates, giving my room a feel of ocean waves (when blue), or moving spirits (when white). Love how I can personalize it with a remote control. Definitely sets the mood when guests are over!" —Kim Tran

Promising review: "The FlexiSpot bike desk might be the most rewarding purchase I have ever made—personally and professionally. Within a week, it paid for itself many times over through my increased productivity. Previously, I lost critical work time to the stationary bike at the gym where I was shackled by the limitations of the iPad. By allowing me to pedal and work at my computer simultaneously, the FlexiSpot freed me from those constraints and extended every workday by hours. Meanwhile, it improved my personal health and overall state of mind. Delightfully in front of my apartment window, I can now work out for prolonged durations, lost in my work, and not even realize I'm exercising." —William N.

Promising review: "I love this mini printer! I did a lot of research on different ones before buying and this seemed to have the best reviews. I originally bought it because I’m living out of country for a while and wanted to be able to send pictures to family. I printed the first few for my locker, the fact that you can make them stickers came in handy, and they came out so well! Myself and my roommates were really impressed by the picture quality. It’s easy to use and I love that I can also add borders and designs with the app. I'm impressed and really happy I bought this." —Jacqueline

Promising review: "My wife wanted something that will pick up food, dry, crumbs off the table. We were looking at a cordless vacuum but that meant we would have to put it somewhere out-of-sight. I got on Amazon and found this. I knew my wife would love it! So I surprised her with this. She loves it! It not only does a great job, but we can also leave it on the table." —William S Faulkner

Promising review: "The Mirror is incredible! You can take any class, at any time, for as long or short as you like. If you are on the fence about buying one, don't be. You will love this piece of workout equipment. The mirror sits in any room unnoticed when turned off, and does not take up any space. A great investment!!!" —sara

Promising review: "I will admit that I had my doubts about the idea of a 'new Polaroid,' but this camera is awesome. The pictures are the same 'shockingly good for instant' quality I remember. For real! I found an old Polaroid photo from the 1980s and put it next to a new one I took this weekend, and the only visible difference was that the person in both photos was about 30 years older." —Nicole

Promising review: "I am in love with this zapper. It is easy to use, easy to clean out, and the sound you hear when that fly or mosquito hits the light is satisfying. I left it on overnight, and I swear it sounded like a crackle coming from a campfire. I don't usually write reviews but this is a must-buy for people who got some flying pest issues. Whoever made this really considered safety because the way it's made, I can't see any child being able to stick their hand in it. This bad boy definitely cleaned up house 🙌🙌🙌" —Rahjon

Personalized Moments is a NY-based small business customizing everything you need to make your life easier and a bit more fun.
Promising review: "Wow! I read the amazing reviews and decided to try this place out for a gift for my boyfriend. The seller responded to my question within minutes! She created a personal design based off of photos I asked her to use as an example. The process was SO fast and SO great. Literally, the entire process took less than 30 minutes. Shipping was quick, and don't get me started about the product itself. This little speaker has RANGE. It came already charged, quickly connected to Bluetooth, and the sound can get quite loud! I already told multiple people about this shop. If you're looking for a great gift, GET THIS SPEAKER!!!" —Alyssa Gonzales

Promising review: "We're older and heavy coffee drinkers. Our latest machine was a Cuisinart. The words surrounding the controls wore away which made it hard to re-program the clock and delay brew settings. So, we decided enough was enough. We researched most of the ones on the market and then bought this Ninja. So far, it's great. The words on the machine are large enough, the clock light is bright enough, it's easy to clean, it's easy to set a future brew time, it's easy to fill with water, the water tank is clear and removable. So far, it's great. I'm impressed. If I weren't, I wouldn't be taking the time to write this." —Tanya Evans

Promising review: "I am obsessed with my K-Mini Single Serve Coffee Maker. I make coffee every single day and sometimes I do it twice :) I recommend this to anyone who loves coffee, especially because it's tiny and the cord can be put back in the machine for easier storage. 10/10!" —Lejla

This car charging port fits in standard 12v–24v vehicle outlets and cigarette lighters. It comes with a long 5-foot cable that can reach the back seat!
Promising review: "I have had this charger for several months now and my kids and myself use it every time we get in the car. We all like that it charges devices super fast and I like that you can unplug the charging cords and put them in the pockets behind the seats. I have a vehicle with three rows so I ordered a set of four charging cables in varying lengths so people in the third row could charge as well. It’s the perfect charger when you have backseat-riders! We love it!!" —Stally

This humidifier can also operate as an oil diffuser!
Promising review: "This thing is the bomb! It’s the king of tabletop humidifiers. It goes for 10–12 hours on max humidity and pumps out absolute clouds of humidity. I’ve got it going 24/7. It’s about 12 feet away, and my humidity meter next to me shows 37% in this forced air heated room. It's easy to fill, holds a lot of water, and believe me you will humidify your room. No more dry skin, static electric shocks, clingy static-y clothes. I only wish I could have bought another, but Amazon was out of them when I came to get one." —what.it.is

Promising review: "I have been using Alexa devices for some years now and thought it was time to update. So I bought two of these little beauties.

Promising review: "I love spending time outside, and we entertain on our patio, too. But when it's over 100 degrees outside, nobody feels like visiting. Until now!! I bought one and liked it so much I ordered another to cover both patios. They lower the temps to a more moderate level in just moments and don't use a 100 gallons of water doing it! I put mine along the top of our privacy fence and then put a fan in behind it and made it almost like having an AC unit outside. They're easy to put up and take down and come with convenient hanging hooks!
I read the reviews people wrote about the heads getting stopped up, and they WILL, but as a plumber I'll tell you a trick to keeping them working like new: vinegar. Just remove the heads and soak then in a little straight vinegar then use a small bristle brush like a toothbrush or nail brush rinse them off and replace them in the mister tubing, and they should be like brand new." —Sonya Combs

This projector can connect to virtually any device and has a built-in battery that lasts for 1.5–2 hours when fully charged.
Promising review: "First off, I love the sleek and stylish design! The size of the projector makes it very easy to carry around and I can have it setup anywhere that I like whether it’s at work, a family gathering or a friend's place. It's just so convenient! I’ve gotten so much compliments from friends and family, they could not believe how projectors have changed from such a robust shape to this elegant design. I did fear that I would be trading in convenience for quality, however the picture quality is excellent! In my opinion better if not the same as a standard industrial projector. There are built-in speakers which is a plus but I would recommend having the audio plugged into an external source via auxiliary cable. For the past few weeks that I’ve had it I’ve ran into no issues, projector has worked fine with my Apple TV, PS4, and laptop with no stutters, no hiccups, no connectivity issues whatsoever. This projector has made my experience with gaming, movie nights, and even just browsing the web even better! I would definitely recommend a household have at least one these, I absolutely love it!" —K

Promising review: "Picture this: You've had a hard day. Boss was a jerk, clients drive you up a wall. You stop at that liquor store and they have that beer you like, but it's not refrigerated. So you run home, wrap a wet towel around it and pop it in the freezer, hoping for a quick turnaround. But it's never quick enough. You wait. Anticipation turns to disappointment. The moment is gone. When it finally cools, it's too late: you've already said something mean to a friend or your spouse. You lashed out, venting your frustrations. It's not their fault. It's not your fault. Get this hyper-chiller thingy." —Griffilicious

Promising review: "This HEPA air purifier is fantastic. Prior to getting this, there was a constant thin layer of dust in my sons’ room; one of them couldn’t stop coughing each night. We live in Waikiki where there are a lot of high rises and so lots of dust will blow down from the roofs and other people’s balconies. I couldn't keep up with the dust despite vacuuming and dusting three times a week.
After one day of using this air purifier, the air had a crisp smell, no longer musty; it almost felt like being outside. I was skeptical at first but am beyond impressed...impressed enough to come back to write a review. It’s been three months of running it 24/7 and there have been no problems yet. I just opened the filter panel today to check and there was tons and tons of dust on it." —Eileen James

Promising review: "I bought this gem for a 900-square-foot house located on a pier in Texas. With no central air, all of our air conditioners are window units. This dehumidifier dropped the humidity level in the house from 80% to 35% in about three hours, filling its water tank completely up. It changed the comfort level dramatically!! It’s not very loud and is easy to roll around and empty the reservoir. It's small but mighty!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I love my Kindle! It was very easy to set up, and I like that I can change the font settings/sizes if I wish. It is easy to adjust the light to read in the day or at night. The battery life has been great. I try to read about an hour a day and after two weeks, it is down to 67%. I bought the bundle with the case and chord, and I love the battery saving case that turns the Kindle on when opened and off when closed. Overall I am completely satisfied with my purchase!" —Shelbie Mays

Promising review: "This thing sucks...Its suction is so much stronger than the Roombas I have had. It picks up so much dust and pet hair. We do a full vacuum every other week with my Dyson, so I think of the robot vacuum as a supplemental vacuum. I was shocked at how much was in the dustbin after it's inaugural cleaning! I work from my home office, and this thing is quiet enough that I don't even turn it off during conference calls. This might be the thing I am most impressed with. My last Roomba was LOUD; you couldn't even have a conversation with someone in the same room, let alone someone on speakerphone." —LB

It's a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, sauté pan, yogurt maker, and food warmer all in one! Read our full review of the Instant Pot!
Promising review: "This is quite possibly the coolest, most versatile kitchen gadget I’ve ever owned. I love it so much that I’ve purchased two more for friends and relatives. What can it do? I think the real question is 'What can’t it do?' I truly believe you could replace every cooking appliance (including your oven and stove top) and do EVERYTHING in the Instant Pot. I purchased two sizes for my own use: the three-quart (which is my almost-every-day workhorse for two person dishes) and the eight-quart (which I bring out to handle my dinner party dishes). Everything I’ve tried has been fabulous. In the realm of kitchen appliances, there is no better investment than the Instant Pot. Highly recommended!!!" —Stereoman

I woke up with a bug bite on my arm so I used this little tool (three times per the instructions) — immediately after using, it stopped itching! And less than 24 hours later the bump/bite gone! There is a very faint red mark from using the thing, but a small price to pay IMO. Bottom line: it’s awesome. I’m carrying it with me everywhere!" —Rebecca
