Promising review: "I love the Better Homes and Gardens candles. The scent is great, and you can actually smell them. I prefer the bell jar. It looks pretty when it burns.

Promising review: "I am in love with this kettle! I needed something cute to go on my bedside table that I could make tea at night while I cuddle up and read my Kindle. This is perfect, and it has an easy button you push down to heat the kettle up. It's quiet! My sister already took one look at mine and said, 'Yup, I'm getting that.' So now we have matching kettles." —Mariah

Promising review: "I was pleasantly surprised by this purchase! Its packaging was amazing, so it was completely intact with no dents or bends. The almost exact item sells for $130 at Pottery Barn. It was exactly as described online, and I was surprised that a candle was included! Pottery Barn's version does not include the candle! I definitely recommend this metal pumpkin. I'm sure it will sell out soon!" —Sydney

Promising review: "I love this doormat. It is the perfect size for my front door, it is quite lush and thick, and the colors are brilliant!! It also arrived really quickly. I look forward to seeing this mat each time I open the front door this fall and for many falls to come!" —Linda

Promising reviews: "I originally purchased this to bake sourdough bread in (still waiting on the starter to be ready). In the meantime, I used it for making lasagna soup and a batch of rice. Both turned out great. The Dutch oven is quite heavy and is of really good quality. Food doesn't stick to the interior, and it's easy to clean. The lasagna soup obviously was made with marinara, but that washed off easily without leaving a stain on the cream interiors. Even my picky husband is impressed and excited to cook more with the Dutch oven this winter. Highly recommend!" —Cindy

"It's Lodge brand, so we know the quality! This big pot is perfect for all the cold-weather soups and stews. It's coated smoothly, so I'm not worried about it scratching my new glass cooktop. The red is the perfect color for my kitchen. I love it! It feels like the handles are big enough. The knob on the lid is big enough to grab hold of. Just know ahead of time it's heavy even when it's empty. Of course. It's cast iron. This is a great quality Dutch oven for an amazing price. I would buy it again." —GetUpandMove

Price: $44.09+ (available in five colors) 

Promising review: "This child's rake is very good quality. It was well received by our 2-year-old grandson on his birthday. He loves to 'work' in the yard along with his dad. Now he has a rake that is just his size and one that will hold up under a toddler's use. The wooden handle was smooth — no worries about splinters. The plastic rake head is thick and sturdy. I would purchase this item again." —Laura

Promising review: "The deep, rich autumnal orange color is stunning. The fabric has a soft velvety feel and a lovely pumpkin pattern that will span the entire season, so not just for Halloween decor. I am pleased with the quality of the fabric and the dense yet comfy amount of filling. Perfect pillows for a perfect autumn setting." —Walmart customer

Price: $13.40 (also available in three other patterns/designs)

Promising review: "I LOVE this scarf/wrap/throw, whatever you want to call it, it is GREAT! It is one of the softest scarves/shawls I've ever felt! This is going to be perfect for me to wear to work as a shawl/scarf because I am always so cold in my office. But the versatility of this is incredible. I am going to purchase another one. And oh, the colors! They are bright and beautiful, one of the best purchases I've made recently!" —Jendy

Promising reviews: "These outdoor lanterns are every bit as beautiful as any from Pottery Barn or Crate & Barrel, but at a fraction of the cost. I bought all three in this set (varying heights — awesome!) for less than one lantern at a high-price store." —Leanne

"These are amazing for the price! I had been searching for exactly this style of lantern for a while, finding much more expensive choices. Then I found these. The reviews were good, and the price was great, so I ordered two. They came extremely well packed, nothing out of order, they are fabulous, nice heavy weight, will NOT get blown over, have a secure latch in the glass door, plenty of room inside. I got the tallest ones. They are stylish and eye-catching! Overall, they are a great deal/steal! I highly recommend them! You will love them! ALL year long!" —Teresa

Price: $18.74+ (available in three sizes and in a medium two-pack)

Promising review: "First time buying seasonal pillow covers. Everyone loved the colors and the way they looked on my couch. Great value, too." —Pagerone

Promising review: "This vinyl is a vibe." —Rolando

Promising reviews: “We bought this for our patio. We are tired of burning wood. I put it together without any fuss. Bonus points for supplying a nice cover. It burns very well. We put lava rock in the center ring and fireproof color stones (bought at Walmart ) around the outside. It's a solid table after you get your gas installed. I would recommend it after using it for a week.” —Sammy

"Easy directions and assembly. My teen son and I put this together pretty quickly. We did exchange the rock for some Dragon Glass to suit our personal taste a little more, but this firepit has already been the focal point of several family memories!" —Brandi

Promising review: "These three little ghosts are an excellent decor item to add a bit of cute-spooky to the home. I have mine sitting on the entertainment center and will be adding more bits around them as we approach Halloween. They're the perfect size for adding just a taste of the holiday while standing quite solidly on their wooden legs. Love these and the price!" —Casey

Promising review: "It is perfect for the fall. I did it with pumpkin spice creamer, and it was a great combination for the nutty, smoky (little spice) flavor you look for during the cooler weather." —Jessica

Price: $16.97 (available in three flavors, including smoked butterscotch...yummmmmmmmm) 

Promising review: "Boy, does this smell good! I love pumpkin everything! It cleans well and leaves your hands soft and smelling really nice. The bottle has a nice fall motif. I almost hate using it because I don't want it to run out. I'll probably buy another just to have a spare." —anonymous

Promising review: "Love, love, love this sweater. It's soft, and the color is perfectly fall. The sweater is not see-through. There's a nice detail on the top of the sleeves. The length hits above the hips. The sleeves are a perfect length. Will definitely hand-wash and dry flat." —Chelle

Price: $60 (available in women's sizes XXS–4X and five colors; all colors not available in all sizes)

Promising review: "They are adorable." —Laurie
