Promising review: "Came back to edit this review to say this stuff is AWESOME. Finally tackled the rings on our stove top with this scrub and a reusable paper towel (as I was worried about using a scourer on an easily scratched surface) and the rings came right off! These are those "oh, crap, the pot boiled over" rings that I ignored that lead to my stovetop looking a bit crusty. The oven scrub ate them right up and left my oven and stove top looking great." —Jessie Bono

Promising review: "Okay, I literally stopped lint rolling my sofa to come write this review. I have three indoor cats, two of them are seniors and have really started shedding terribly. I own no less than a dozen different pet hair/lint removal gadgets and not ONE of them even approaches the effectiveness of this product. I just removed every trace of pet hair from my sofa in less than five minutes and I didn't even break a sweat. As I stood back and examined my sofa, I did not believe it had actually removed the hair but had probably pushed it around somewhere less visible. I popped the button that opens the hair collection compartment on the roller, and THE HAIR WAS IN THERE. WHAT?!!?! It actually took the hair off of my sofa and put it in the compartment!! Literally, I almost cried. I am considering having guests over into my home again...going out to make some friends right now!" —A.W.

Promising review: "This is the first time I've taken the time to write a review for anything I've purchased from Amazon. I live alone and my schedule gets me out of the door about 1:00 pm and back home between 10-10:30 pm. After suffering a heart attack a few years back I've been doing my best to eat healthier (no processed foods, everything cooked from scratch). I have a great 15 minute pasta sauce recipe from Cook's Illustrated that's fast and tasty but pulling out the big pot, filling it up, waiting for the water to boil, dropping the pasta and waiting for it to finish really meant that this was something I had to prepare in advance and reheat when I got home. Not anymore. I've owned this Fasta-Pasta maker for over four months now and I highly recommend it. I measure out the pasta, put in the water, drop in the pasta, put it in the microwave and set it for 15 minutes. While it's cooking away, I make my sauce and both are done at the same time. A healthy meal in a short amount of time with minimal clean-up. It absolutely works as advertised. If it disappeared I would immediately purchase another. Buy it, you won't be disappointed." —DokRok5150

Promising review: "These shorts did not disappoint. I was a bit hesitant given the length, as they might look like shapewear. They did not though, and the high waist is perfect for not rolling as I run. They stayed put and I put them to the test running three miles outdoors on a trail. My phone and key fob also stayed in each pocket, never slipping or pulling the shorts down with the weight. I was so impressed that I had to write this review and plan to order more in other colors. Love love love these shorts!!" —Rodzilla

Promising review: "I have never been more surprised and pleased with the results from using a product! We purchased an antique biblioteque from France from the late1800s that is absolutely stunning. But the wood was very dry, unconditioned and needed a really good cleaning. A handful of products faded right away or shortly after application. This product caught my eye and, after reading the reviews, I thought it was worth giving it a try. Well, I couldn't wait to write yet another glorious review and hope that the product finds its way to another person like me that wants to take great care of their investments and see STUNNING results after application. I used the product over a week ago and it still looks incredible, no dried out areas. The depth and coloration of the wood is so beautiful now. It's gone from a dried-out light color to a super deep, rich healthy looking wood sheen. THRILLED with the results." —Megan

Promising review: "This is great. It's such an elegant solution to portion sizing, and especially freezing leftovers. I recently made a meat sauce, portioned out the leftovers, and put it in the freezer. It's so easy to remove frozen portions, then bag/vacuum pack for longer storage in the freezer.
After reading reviews of similar products from other brands (with people saying their off brand version keeps shedding dust, flimsy design, leaking, not acting like foodgrade silicone, can't put in oven, etc.), Souper Cubes is the only brand I will buy. I am so impressed, I plan to grow my collection of Souper Cubes. It deserves more than 5 stars (I've never said that about a product before)." —Therese

Promising review: "These are amazing! I don't usually write reviews, but I LOVE these. I'm a huge makeup geek and I wear a lot of makeup: full coverage foundation, concealer, setting powder, bronzer and highlighter, eyebrow pomade, mascara, shadow, the whole nine yards. I seriously just wet the cloth with water, nothing special, and it takes all of it off. No harsh scrubbing, it doesn't dry out my skin or leave any residue on it, and they're SO affordable. I've saved a ton on makeup remover wipes and liquid cleansers. 10/10 recommend!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "This review is so long overdue. This is the best litter in the world. My primary hesitation with keeping the lost kitty my fiance brought home was the stupid litter box. I hate them. They're awful. We tried several litter types before I stumbled upon this stuff and I cannot tell you all how wonderful it is. I rave about it to anyone I know who has a cat. The reason I am writing this review is because we recently moved and forgot our next bag of litter, so we had to use clay litter for a week. It has reaffirmed that I will NEVER go back. Get this litter, you will not regret it!!" —Carly Nichole

Promising review: "I never write reviews but I had to for this. There are two girls with long hair in the house, which leads to hair strands everywhere. I couldn’t tell you how many drain snakes we’ve bought to unclog the shower over the years. The TubShroom was super easy to install and, per the instructions I popped it out after a week and all the hair wrapped around the shroom stalk was so gross!!! I checked the cross bar in the drain and it was spotless! No hair whatsoever. The TubShroom got it all! I should have bought this a long time ago!!" —Kari

Promising review: "I’m writing this review less than half an hour after getting a hold of this package. Our shower drain has been backed up for about a month now. I thought I fixed it with Drano a couple weeks ago, but two days later it was backed up again and even worse than before. As soon as my door man delivered this package, I ripped it open and stuck one of these suckers down the drain. I initially wasn’t able to push it down very far at all, but as I pulled it out I learned that was because there was a very large chunk of hair right at the surface that I couldn’t even see. I was able to advance further and further the more hair I pulled out. That was too easy and so grossly satisfying. It’s awesome." —Ashley

Promising review: "Who writes a review on piddle pads? Well, evidently me. I’ve been around in the puddle pad world and tried all kinds. There are two reasons I’ve changed over to this brand. Color: instead of white pads with standout lovely yellow spots, these seem to absorb and camouflage the pee pee. That’s just a visually good thing. And the second reason I'm sold? Weight and size: I’m not sure what kind of crazy magic is going on here, but this appears to be a thin pad, not cottony or quilted. But it absorbs the same amount. And puppies who like to shred them aren’t as likely to do so with these; maybe it's their lack of fluff content?" —Ronda Gilger

I was tired of the dang salons not getting all the dead skin off my feet. I saw that this had great reviews; add to cart. Won’t hurt to try. GIRL! I just got out of the shower, used this, and holy dead skin! It was so gross yet so satisfying. Buy this tool. Point blank period. My feet are happy." —Kimmie

Promising review: "I didn’t even know my sink was dirty until I used these! I scrub it every time I was dishes but didn’t realize how much stuff builds up. The pic should speak for itself. This was after one wipe with a little water, virtually no scrubbing at all. Highly recommend. And I don’t usually write reviews." —Beth

Promising review: "I just got this delivered and upon opening, I am so pleased with the quality. I haven’t started putting it up yet and will add to my review afterwards. I’m writing this review because I’m shocked at how amazing the texture is. It has a matte finish (not that glossy cheap look) and a very minimal rough “texture” that makes it look much like real wallpaper." —Stacia

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

These tablets are biodegradable, chlorine-free, and environmentally safe.
Promising review: "I was so skeptical about this. Really? A pill you drop in and then rinse out and your cup will be clean? Sounds like a bad As Seen on TV product. But my wife’s coffee tumbler was stained beyond brown, and Dawn was not cutting it. So I figured I'd give it a try for $8. Nothing to lose. I filled the tumbler with hot water and dropped the candy-like pill in. When we first looked, the foam bubbles were all brown, then I dumped the water. It was the grossest thing ever. Brown skin like pieces all over the sink. I rinsed the cup a few times and we gave it a look. This thing works. I only write reviews when items are bad. But I had to let my fellow dish-washing husbands out there know this product is amazing. The cup is clean and smells new." —Michael Ching

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: "Wow! These things work! I never write reviews, but I am blown away. We’ve tried everything to get rid of those pesky gnats that come with having house plants: home vinegar solutions, Neem oil, etc. Nothing seemed to work. We were constantly swatting gnats. I almost got rid of our house plants in frustration. I’m glad I found these traps. We placed them in several of our plants around the house and just a few days later started seeing them work. Within a week, the traps filled up. As others have said, it’s gross, but satisfying. No more swatting gnats!" —Diane

Dropps is a small business based in Philly whose mission is to sustainably create eco-friendly and powerful cleaning products.
Promising review: "I waited to write my review because I wanted to test this product with everything I could throw at it. Dropps passed and passed well. I have two teenage sons and we live in Florida. When I tell you this product gets the “boy” smell out of the clothes, I am not kidding. My boys are outside constantly, fishing, boating, running, and long distance cycling. Dropps gets the clothes clean and the smells out...even the fish smell.
I purchased this product because I was tired of using chemicals to clean my clothes, and I hate the plastic waste that comes with mainstream cleaning products. I found my forever detergent, and I hope you do too!" —Christa

Promising review: "If you’re thinking about buying it, don’t hesitate! This was an impulse buy and it’s adorable and so easy to use. I just finished using it and I HAD to come write a review.

Best $15 I ever spent." —Makayla

Promising review: "I NEVER write reviews unless I either really love something or hate it, and I LOVE THIS MASCARA. I am a mascara fanatic; I buy mascara constantly, always trying to find the best one. So, this mascara is super cheap and the best one I've bought so far.
This mascara doesn't clump (unless you don't know what you're doing) and it has great volume and thickness. You can use one coat to be subtle or you can keep building it up. It also lasts all day. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS! It's a steal. Better than all the higher-end mascaras I've tried and the drug store ones. I will most definitely be buying another one when my current one runs out." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I don't write reviews unless a product is really great. And this is one of the best little inventions to come into my life recently! I use it behind my bed as we have an adjustable bed and every time I would raise it, it would hit the plugs in the outlet and pull them out. If I pulled the bed away from the wall, the pillows would fall to the floor. I could not come up with a solution until I found the Sleek Socket! It's amazing! So easy to set up. I even bought another one for my family room. And it hides all of the ugly cords. I have already recommended this product to my friends." —Connie Wigmore
