Promising review: "Holy cow, this thing is amazing!!! I’d been looking at brush cleaners for a while, but thought they couldn’t be everything they claimed. I was wrong! This brush cleaner cleans brushes instantly and then dries them, too. It took me less than 10 minutes to wash and dry all my brushes, whereas it used to take me 45 minutes to wash them by hand and then a full day to get them dry. This machine dries them so well that they can be used immediately, and it keeps the integrity of the brush. I give it at least 10/5 stars!!!" —Ziasophia

BuzzFeed writer Sally Elshorafa has this and loves it. Check out her Bissell Little Green Machine review!

Promising review: "Wow! Bought this little steamer and am really impressed. I did one go on my brothers' couches, and [there's a] difference. It could use one more go to get to the 'looking like brand new,' but this is amazing!!! When you watch the video in the product description, there is something oddly satisfying about watching the dirty water get suctioned in after spraying the surface you are cleaning, but I must admit I didn't believe it would work that well. Well, it does!! Just like advertised! I am so impressed. If you are considering this cleaner, get it; you will not be disappointed." —edina bajraktarevic

Promising review: "I’ve tried so many nipple covers over the years, and these are just in a league of their own! They stick and don’t move (sweat, clothes, moisturizer, etc. — nothing budges them), but then they peel off so easily. It’s magic. They are completely seamless, and my husband (without prompting) said they looked like a second skin. I’ve got quite 'triangular' boobs, and they completely mold to the shape and look like I just have no nipples lol. Only when I’m suuuuuper cold does any level of nipple start to show through, and even then, it’s minimal. They’re more pricey than others I’ve bought before, but so worth it. The others were one-and-done — these have held up through multiple wears and are still in perfect condition. Will repurchase them as soon as they wear out, without a doubt! No more bras!" —Alison

Get a set from Amazon for $28.50+ (available in five shades and three sizes: one that fits cups A–C, one that fits cups D+, and one that fits cups DD+).

Promising review: "Wow. This works fast. As soon as I put it on, I could feel it working. I was surprised by how well it covers the sore. I thought, 'Is this thing magic?!' It stays put, too. I put it on last night and already feel so much better today, and it looks a lot better. This is important to have in stock just in case this comes out of the blue, which is what happened to me. I’m so thankful for the people who created this. This is the best product I’ve ever used. And I’ve used others with no effect. This is powerful stuff." —GG

Promising reviews: "I don't usually write product reviews — it's just not worth my time. But in this case, it was worth it. This is fantastic. I've used so many products that offer automatic curls (like the Chi), and this beats all of them." —H. Brown

"This product is extremely easy to use on yourself and or your friends! It was much cheaper than one of the other ones we saw, but this one worked way beyond my expectations! Best product ever!" —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $56.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors).

Promising review: "These are the only candles I burn. I have three dogs and a cat, and sometimes some stinky grandkids lol. Everyone comments on how fresh it smells." —Donna Woods

Nori is a woman-owned small business based in Connecticut, hoping to make your life easier.

Promising reviews: "It’s just a fabric shaver. How could it possibly be that much better than every other fabric shaver on Amazon? Oh, it can be. Hands down the most efficient and effective fabric shaving device I’ve owned. Oh, and it goes beyond sweaters and has saved the dining room chairs that fell victim to the cats. You need this. If there are questions, I will be over here shaving the rest of the furniture and all of my sweaters." —Amanda Doerr

"This works perfectly. It is easy to use, and it quickly removes the pilling from my sweaters. Love the speed at which my sweater looked good as new." —Patti Lucas

Get it from Amazon for $59 (available in three colors).

Promising review: "This product is da bomb! Yeah, I said that, and I am 43 years old. Seriously, for months — heck, probably years — every single day we have to fix the sheet, and it still comes off the mattress even when we are sleeping. I clip these things on, and no more issues. You can see the sheet trying to slide up, but the clips hang on tight." —Ivy

Get a set of four from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three colors and two sizes).

Promising reviews: "This definitely takes away the shininess on face mid-day in summer weather." —SJJS

"I have super oily skin and am always looking for something to help control it during the day. The linen squares are good, but you have to keep them around (and keep replacing them), and they end up in the landfill. This little contraption really works, and I just rinse it at the end of the day and start over again the next. I kept one on my desk and bought a second for my purse. This is magic for my shiny skin, especially on camera in my hours of Zoom every day." —Jennifer Helseth

Promising reviews: "I used to sweat and be so uncomfortable in my singing practice room. This fan was so helpful to keep me comfortable. The different speeds are great, and it's pretty powerful for such a small fan. Love the color and sleekness too. It saved my life." —Danielle

"One of my absolute must-haves as a chronically ill and nauseous girl. My fan seriously comes with me everywhere and is amazing for travel. I can even use it as a sleep fan if needed. Amazing for airplanes and train rides, amazing for walking through hot and crowded places, too. It’s quiet, super powerful with up to 5 speeds, cute and lightweight, and fits in small bags." —Haley

Get it from Amazon for $17.59+ (available in two sizes and four colors).

Promising reviews: "I need this in bulk!! I have tried so many cleaning solutions to get out hard cooking stains on my stove top, and nothing worked! This stuff took it right out without a problem!!" —Micaela Gunderson

"I was trying to get adhesive off of drywall, and nothing was working. THIS WORKS on everything! It easily took off the adhesive. Then I had Corningware with a stubborn stain; I had tried everything. Then I tried The Pink Stuff, and it easily removed the stubborn stain. I will now always keep this on hand!" —David C. Rein

Promising review: "This product is absolutely amazing and works so well and fast. It is one of the products that has transformed my neck skin in just a couple of days. I'm in my late 40s, and I always used moisturizers on my neck, but I still had dry-looking, crepey skin. Not anymore. I still cannot believe that such an inexpensive cream can make my neck skin look so plump and young. Do try it." —Momof5

Promising reviews: "Great for 'under the skin' bumps. They work well and quickly overnight. For more serious spots, I will put them on for a few hours, rest, then reapply. I am a picker, so this really helps keep me on a track to recovery." —Kirsten Stocksett

The convenience of the tablet format makes application a breeze — simply drop one in and let it work its cleaning magic. Say farewell to stubborn residues and hello to spotless dishes! Elevate your dishwasher maintenance with Affresh — a must-have for anyone seeking efficiency and cleanliness in every wash." —Ryan

Promising review: "I’ve used Color Catchers for many years, so I can wash darks and lights together. They save time and money. (I’ve given boxes to each of my children as they head off to college.) You can tell they work because you see the color they soak up. Recently, a new purple shirt took me by surprise and ran profusely. I had two color catchers in that load, and they both turned deep violet." —Go Steelers 

Promising review: "These are the only dryer balls I've found that actually made me not need fabric softener sheets. It cuts down on static, and I don't find pet fur clinging to my clothes when I pull them out of the dryer." —Bumblebee33

BuzzFeed Shopping contributor Sam Wieder has this and loves it! Check out her Wet and Forget shower cleaner review!

Promising review: "I have well water. Something in my well water reacts with copper plumbing and turns my shower tiles blue. Since my bathroom color scheme isn't on the blue spectrum, this is problematic. The well water also causes the shower glass to film up quickly. I've tried dozens and dozens of cleaners and scrubbed ’til my arms ached, trying to get ahead of the blue and scumminess. My ambition in life is NOT to be a full-time bathroom scrubber! I saw this stuff on a professional house cleaner's TikTok (sorry, I don't remember which one) and thought, 'What the heck, might as well give it a try.' Oh my goodness, the first day after my shower, I sprayed this stuff all over and walked away. The next morning, there was a NOTICEABLE reduction in the blue, and the glass looked clearer, too. On day two, I sprayed again and walked away. The next morning, the blue was gone except for a few spots on the floor tile, and the glass looked amazing. On day three, I sprayed the remaining spots, and the next morning, the shower practically looked new. NO SCRUBBING AT ALL!!!! This is my new favorite shower cleaner. The ONLY con I have is that it makes me sneeze while spraying from inside the shower, but I can live with that." —L. J. Petillo

Get it from Amazon for $20.98+ (available in two sizes, two scents, and a pack of two).

Promising reviews: "I never thought I would pay $15 for a claw clip because that seems excessive. However, this one is worth it. The clip is comfortable and sturdy. I have lain down, driven, and worked out in it, and it has never bothered me. The spring is also strong enough to hold my long hair without budging. Would recommend." —Kelly

"I have three of these, and they are my favorite. They actually hold my hair up. I got rid of all my other brands of claw clips. These are perfect." —mc

Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in six styles).

Promising review: "I've tried other whitening pens before, and they always made my teeth really sensitive and hurt. But not this one! It is gentle enough for daily use, even on sensitive teeth. And it brightens within the first application. There is enough product in the pen to last through many treatments and touch-ups. I highly, highly recommend this product! It removed stains that were embedded in my teeth for years. It even whitened my yellowed fillings somewhat. I will be purchasing this regularly." —Becka

The water-resistant light comes with a replaceable lithium battery.

Promising review: "So glad I found these. I have one on my apartment key and another on my mailbox key. They really work well, especially in low lighting. Since my vision is no longer perfect, these lights save me time so I don’t have to fumble trying to get my key into the locks. I definitely recommend them. I have a spare for replacement, but they last a long time." —Marni

Promising review: "My shower drain is the absolute worst! I live in a really old house, and the twisting and turning of the pipes makes it ridiculously difficult to snake or anything like that, so I have to resort to using Drano-like products. Speaking of Drano, I have used every single one of their products out there, and nothing works! I’ve tried really expensive hair de-clogger products. NOTHING has worked until this!! Seriously, I can’t believe I’m writing this detailed review on a liquid/gel hair clog eliminator, but I’m so amazed at how quickly this product works at unclogging my drain. Fifteen minutes later, and no more water above my ankles. Yes, I do have to redo it every month or two because, of course, it gets clogged again with new hair and gunk. For the price, I’m willing to pay for it monthly forever to keep the problem abated." —Weston16

BuzzFeed Shopping writer Melanie Aman highly recommends this. Check out her Dove Intensive Repair 10-in-1 hair mask review!

Promising review: "I have very long, fine hair. It’s past my waist. My ends can get very dry. I love this hair mask. It works. The first time I used it, I was sold. It made a noticeable difference in the texture of the ends of my hair. I don’t see myself needing a trim anytime soon. I don’t need to use much. My hair soaks it up every time. I like the scent. This doesn’t weigh my hair down. It leaves my hair very soft, shiny, and manageable." —FlyingSnow

Promising review: "I absolutely love these things! I have five kiddos. These gel stamps keep my toilet cleaner and fresher-smelling for longer, which is a definite plus with four boys. These have an easy, no-mess application. I finally just put them on my Subscribe & Save so I always have them ready." —Alyssa M

Promising review: "Really happy with these. My housemate is a professional musician and likes the music in the house much louder than I do. Wearing these keeps us both happy, and it’s still easy to understand regular conversations. Bonus points because they are comfortable to wear and easy to remove. Most people don’t notice them, but if they do, they just comment on how cool-looking they are. Really nice design." —D Calvin

Get it from Amazon for $39.95 (available in four other colors).

Promising reviews: "LOVE it. It took three minutes to cut grapes, which would have taken me at least 10 [by hand]. As a mom of a toddler, those minutes are precious. It was also fun and easy to use." —Jacqueline

"I wish I had had this a LONG time ago. This little gadget has come in so handy. If you have a toddler or small child, you NEED this. It quarters grapes, cherry tomatoes, olives, etc., so they aren’t choking hazards for little ones. So much faster than slicing every tiny grape up yourself. 10/10 would recommend." —Sara Waits

Promising review: "I love this air purifier. As someone with chronic allergies and a hatred of dust, the automatic adjustment of this was exactly what I was looking for. It has a status indicator, a wonderful app that I’ve had no issues with, and — best of all — Alexa integration. Setup was easy, and even on the maximum power setting, it’s not too loud. If you keep it on auto like I do, you’ll never even hear this thing running." —Tucker Souder

Get it from Amazon for $169.99+ (available in black and white).

Promising review: "I love it! It works great for me to manage my cat's food intake, and I can also use the app if I need to make adjustments. I also like that it has a battery in case I lose power." —MasterKyle310

Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in two colors).

Promising review: "Been using this for about a month. I run and go to the gym, so I use my sneakers five to six times a week. I remove the insoles and spray those, then spray inside the sneakers. I like the scent, kind of minty, and it kills any odors immediately. I’d recommend." —Lisa S

Promising review: "I use this ultrasonic cleaner for my retainers and jewelry, and it works great for both. My retainers come out spotless and feel so fresh afterward. I also tried it with my earrings, and they look like new, so shiny and clean. The size is perfect, it is easy to use, and the pink color looks really cute on my counter. I am very happy with this purchase." —Aleksa

Get it from Amazon for $42.99+ (available in five colors).

Promising review: "I never understood how people could go more than two days without washing their hair, and now I know. This has been a lifesaver! I was looking for an alternative to my spray dry shampoo, and this is even better. It literally dries up the oil and makes hair look freshly washed." —Mandy

Get it from Amazon for $13.59+ (available in three shades).

Promising review: "I have had these for almost two years, and I love them!! I use them every day, and I mean every day. The sound quality is amazing to me, the noise-canceling is amazing, the fit is comfortable, and the battery life is WONDERFUL! They stay charged two years later, still for about two to three days, and if I only use them for about and hour or two a day, which is rare for me, they’ll stay charged upwards of four to five days!" —Lisa & Landry

Get it from Amazon for $29.96+ (available in six colors).

Promising review: "Holy crap, this stuff works, and the name speaks for itself. I’m a big cleaner, and I always clean my jetted tub after every use. We rent our house, and when we moved in, I used bleach to clean out the lines. Recently, though, I noticed a bit of mold in the jets, so I snagged this. As soon as the water hit the first jet, I started to see 'sludge' come out and start to clump. As it reached higher, I was mortified. Once I turned the jets ON, dear lord, it was over. I wanted to throw up. This stuff WORKS, and I will forever buy it until I no longer have a jet tub." —Charlie

Promising reviews: "I use these every six weeks or so to keep my machine from getting gnarly and disgusting. They do exactly what they promise and are super easy to use. Staple in my household since trying them for the first time." —AL

“I bought this product because the needle in my Keurig 2.0 keeps clogging, causing inconsistent brewing and taste. These cleaning cups fixed both of my issues, and I especially liked that they were really quick and easy to use. I put the cleaning pod in and ran one cycle, then took the pod out and ran a rinse cycle to clean out any leftover grinds. FAST, EASY, and GREAT results…VERY HAPPY!!” —Corey West

Promising review: "Grinds much faster than my battery-operated grinder. I use them almost every day, one for white pepper and the other for black. They hold a charge for a long time. After using it for two weeks, they were fully charged in less than five minutes, indicating the built-in battery was probably at 90%. Great buy and highly recommend!! 👍" —Randy F
