Promising review: "I wanted something that could do slushies in individual servings. I got this because of the reviews and I am loving the different sizes of individual containers, and having a full-sized blender. I have a small kitchen so I avoid storing extras. I thought I would just throw away all but one of the containers, but I'm finding them all useful. I had no idea I would enjoy this blender so much. I'm turning my excess of herbs into tasty slushies to enjoy on breaks from yard work on a hot day. I bought lemonade from a neighbor kid's stand then added herbs. I pulverized a green chili soup. A friend stopped by so I whipped up a cucumber, lime, basil slushie. Have I mentioned I love this thing?!" –Desharri

Promising review: "Very happy with these. So soft and comfortable to sleep with. They are great for my skin and hair. I have much less frizz, and my acne has improved visibly. I wash them once a week and do not put them in the dryer. I’ll let them air dry. Haven’t had seam or zipper issues so far, and I have been using these for about a month with weekly washes." —CamG

Price: $7.04+ (originally $9.95+; available in 44 colors)

This product’s packaging says to avoid using it around open food, so keep your chip bags closed and hot dogs covered while you hang out. But it should be fine to pull out a hot dog and handful of chips if you’re going to eat them right away.

Promising review: "I really enjoyed using the Thermacell insect repeller in my yard this spring. I find the device to be very effective, and each pad usually lasts long enough for most evenings we spend outside. I also like that it has minimal smell and doesn't require spraying anything or having more heat. It's still pretty cost-effective and worth the price. Overall, I would highly recommend this for insect control." —Krash

BuzzFeed editor Maitland Quitmeyer says, "I have the non-smart version of this in my bedroom, and I love it. Just note that when you get it, you need to take the filter out and unwrap it before using!"

Promising review: "TikTok was right — these actually work. As someone who suffers from dust allergies, I have no idea how I didn't get an air purifier before. Love this product, it's easy to connect and remote manage via the app." —Gil Hirak

Promising review: "Wonderful bedtime fan or anytime really. I had been looking for a quality tower fan where the display actually turned off with some sort of sleep mode, and this works perfectly for that. The power is fantastic for the price, and it's relatively quiet even on its highest setting. My favorite part of the sleep mode, however, is that it will auto-adjust the fan speed based on the temperature. Temp goes down, fan speed drops with it, goes up, it goes back up. No more waking up with a fan blasting on high, but instead I will wake up with it at least 2-3 levels lower than where I went to sleep. Makes for a much gentler wake-up. Setup is a breeze as well, just take it out of the case, clip the base plates together, and stand it up. Remote is easy to use even in the dark, no LED on it, but buttons are pronounced enough and few enough, it's pretty easy to tell which you need in the middle of the night. The fan itself also includes a storage for the remote in the back, so you won't lose it." —Alan

Promising review: "Paid $1,800 for a new oven. I have used it two times now, because I cook everything in this air fryer, and I mean everything. I even make barbecue ribs in it. Best ribs I ever had! This air fryer is a game changer. You will not be sorry if you get it. If and when this one breaks, I'll be buying another one. That's how much I love it." —annie

Promising review: "This comforter is the perfect weight! Not too thick, not too thin and super soft. It looks and feels so cozy, it makes it hard to get out of bed! The oversized king drapes almost to the floor (my king mattress sits on a high base). No more fighting for a blanket with my partner! We both can burrito ourselves comfortably and even the cats get a corner without rolling off. It fluffed out easily from the packaging. And the color was true to the picture. Any wrinkles smooth out after a few light tugs." —Fifus

Promising review: "I waited to write this review for several months, wanting to really give it a try. It’s been a fantastic pillow. I take it anytime I go on a trip, as well as using it in my bed.

Promising review: "I've used the Cuckoo 10-cup pressure rice cooker for a while, so I was excited to try this smaller model. What I love most is that it's compact but can still make up to six cups of cooked rice, which is more than enough for my needs. I have a lot of kitchen appliances, so it's nice to have a rice cooker that's easy to store when it's not in use. It also looks really cute on the counter because of its compact size. Most days, I cook white rice, and this cooker makes the process incredibly simple. I just wash the rice, select the mode, and press start. The rice is ready in about 30 minutes and comes out great every time. I think this is the perfect size rice cooker for a small family of two to four people. Honestly, I wish I had a rice cooker like this when I was a college student." —Saeng Douangdara

Promising review: "This little vacuum is amazing. It was easy to set up and to use right out of the box. I turned it on, and I could not believe the dust and dirt it picked up. The cord is long and there is no problem covering a large bed and because it is corded, you don’t have to worry about the battery having to be recharged. There is good suction and you see the results immediately. The machine is very easy to clean. Pull it apart, rinse it dry, and it’s ready to use again. It also comes with an additional filter for future use." —JloGlo

Promising review: "This is the second Philips SmartSleep light I've owned. My first lasted me a LONG time, and waking up to light is a game-changer in regard to overall sleep quality. No loud noises; you can choose a birdsong or your favorite radio station to ease you awake. I like all the menu options available; you choose when and how you want to wake, but one of the really amazing features of using a dawn simulator is that you are also able to use it as a sunset at night, when you may want to read in bed to relax you into sleep. This is a unique and amazing feature; you set the timer for sunset, and tuck yourself into bed — the light is brighter and very, very gradually begins to fade into 'sunset' and dark. Your brain is easily and happily relaxing into sleep! I love this feature. The clock comes with a very easy-to-understand user manual, and there are several timer options you can use as well. The color quality of the Philips is excellent; soothing and bright, IF you want it to be — you make the choices as to the amount of brightness you need or want. I'd HIGHLY recommend this product." —Sara Smithie

Promising review: "If you’re looking for a high-quality utensil holder on a budget, look no more! Don’t let the price deceive you! You ARE getting a good deal! This utensil holder is sturdy, easy to use, and looks nice! This fits a lot of utensils comfortably and expands to fit even more. Can fit small or large drawers. Has enough space to organize all your utensils beautifully and is quite durable. I was a bit skeptical at first, but this feels sturdy and not cheap. I purchased the black one, and it gives off a nice modern, clean, expensive look!" —Jeslyn Glover

Promising review: "I love these! They are definitely a project to put together. Lots of pieces, but nothing was difficult. I actually had fun with assembly. Just make sure you set aside the time to do it. Nicely made. Drawers are smooth, strong, and made of wood. Very narrow, perfect for our king-sized bed in a room made for a full. Really nice design and color." —Dawn

Promising review: "The dual nozzle is what makes it worth it. One setting for general use, one for a more targeted clean. Both do the job well. Water pressure is adjustable, which matters. Start low… learned that the hard way. Big difference compared to toilet paper. You just feel cleaner. Also cuts down how much paper you use, which is a plus. Over time, it probably pays for itself." —SFRGR

Promising review: "This is my first ever food processor, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I have been very pleased. I've used it to shred carrots (super easy with the included shredding plate) and chop fresh mint leaves to make syrup (also super easy). I've been particularly impressed with the way it chops up leafy greens like mint into tiny pieces, so I'm looking forward to using it for pesto. I love that this creates a nice, dry product, instead of the wet mess that I usually get from my blender when chopping mint. The system is super easy to use, and you just put in the blade (and the shredding disc if you're using it) and then snap on the lid, and you're ready to go. I love the feed tube and how easy it is to feed hard stuff like carrots or big wads of mint leaves down there and I've never had to use the little pusher thing. There's plenty of power, and even shredding a pound of mint only takes about five minutes. Cleanup is a cinch, and the blade, shredding disc, plastic carafe, and lid are all dishwasher safe. Everything comes out looking brand new, and I haven't seen any staining of the plastic parts. Overall, this has been a great addition to my kitchen, and a great way to quickly and easily finely chop or shred items, and I certainly recommend it." —Beth

This set includes a 1.5-quart saucepan with lid, 3-quart saucepan with lid, 3.5-quart sauté pan with helper handle and lid, 8-quart stockpot with lid, 8" skillet, 10" skillet, and 20cm steamer insert with lid.

Promising review: "I bought this set along with a few additional pieces back in 2009. This set has held up wonderfully. I cook a lot, a whole lot! I’ve cooked countless meals for my family (including two hungry boy teens, husband, friends, and family) with this cookware. It performs fantastically! Food does not stick, and it’s easy to clean. It holds temperature perfectly. When my college-age son, who is in grad school, wanted a good set of pots and pans this year for Christmas, I was amazed that this was still available! The exact same set was for sale in 2025. He was excited to get such a great set! I feel it will truly last him a lifetime. These pots have been thrown into the cabinet and not pampered. No dents. No defects. Still work perfectly after all these years. My daughter-in-law cleaned them up really nicely (the bottoms of all pans get discolored over time). They looked brand new. Light scratches inside from years of cooking, but that doesn’t affect the performance. I don’t baby my pans. They are workhorses in my kitchen. I will probably be gifting another set to my other son next year. Great job, Cuisinart! 10/10 A+++" —ShellH
