Cold weather is a whooooooole lot easier to deal with when your home feels like the coziest place on Earth.

As a resident writer on the BuzzFeed Shopping team, I can't believe that I get to search the internet to help you find the best, most unique, life-changing products for my job.

Promising review: "Firstly, this heater puts out a tremendous amount of heat. I got this for a room that doesn't have a door, so I didn't expect it to heat the space that well. Surprisingly, this heater not only makes the entire space comfy, but the adjacent hall to the room also manages to get warm from this heater as well. It's also incredibly quiet. It's the quietest heater I've had for this space, and I've had a few different ones in this space. It's also so sleek. It looks high-tech while not requiring a lot of space or tech know-how. Plug it in and either push power on the remote or power on the actual device, and you're ready to go. It has three modes, and yes, I can tell the difference between low and high heat output. The timer is wonderful. And the remote is serviceable enough to be useful." —L. Thornhill

Get it from Amazon for $67.49+ (available in two colors and styles).

Promising review: "JUST WHAT I NEEDED! This weatherstrip worked great for me. It came in two attached strips with an adhesive backing. The strips can be separated as needed. It was easy to peel the backing and install the strips. I installed both strips on the door casing where the door meets it when closed. It immediately stopped the draft that was coming in around the door." —RH in TN

Get it from Amazon for $5.97+ (available in three sizes and four colors).

These stoppers are wider than the strips above, so they make a better fit for doors with a large gap between them and the floor.

Promising review: "I originally bought these to keep crickets out of my house because I have large gaps under both of my doors and a cricket problem in my yard. But after installing them (which was super easy), I realized that they were keeping my house cool during the day and keeping the cold air out at night." —J

Get a pack of two from Amazon for $7.98+ (available in four colors and a pack of four).

You can actually even use it to replace your alarm clock by setting it to arouse you with a gentle warming that can trigger your body to wake up naturally! And it's also amazing if you and your partner sleep at wildly different temps.

I have been trying this out for the last few months, and Y'ALL — when I tell you this has been a GAME CHANGER! So, the air conditioning system at my house is currently broken, and it's going to take some time before my partner and I have the money to get it replaced. We have a swamp cooler in the main part of our house that actually does an amazing job at keeping us cool, but our bedrooms can still feel like a sauna at night. I have some Cozy Earth cooling sheets that have been incredible, but there's only so much sheets can do on their own. But lemme tell you, when we got the Chilipad on... I set it to 68, and it was the first night all summer where I had to get a blanket because I was SO cold!! It's actually unbelievable to me how warm the room can be, but as soon as I lie on the Chilipad, it's literally like having AC coming through the bed. And trust, it won't feel like you're sleeping on a waterbed from the '90s. You can sometimes hear/feel the water cycling through the pad (but it's very faint and not disruptive).

And I also love that you can set it to different temps throughout the night. Having it be a lil' warm when it's time to get up is such an incredible feeling. If you love to bed rot, this will literally make you never want to leave. I can't wait to use this when the temps drop, too. Just note that you can only use distilled water, but the tank lasts you for quite a while — I believe we refilled around two or three weeks after first filling. And then you will also want to buy their cleaning solution. The brand recommends running a cleaning cycle once a month and then doing a deep clean where you empty out the water pads and wash the cover every six months.

Get it from Sleepme for $1599+ (available in two models, for one or two sleepers, and in sizes Twin XL–Cal King).

And, you can also use it durning the warmer months to keep cool!

BedJet is a small business that creates climate control bed systems.

Promising review: "After using this for over a year, I can confidently say this is one of the BEST purchases I’ve made for comfort and sleep. It is DEFINITELY worth the price! Treat Yourself 🎁 I originally bought it because I run hot at night and night sweats started (not fun!), especially during warmer months, and it has made a noticeable difference in how quickly I fall asleep and how comfortable I stay throughout the night. What stands out most is how fast it works. You don’t have to wait for the whole room to cool down — you can feel the airflow almost immediately, which is a game changer when you’re trying to fall asleep. I also really appreciate how customizable it is. You can adjust the airflow and temperature settings to fit exactly what your body needs, whether you sleep hot, cold, or somewhere in between. I prefer the remote, and I can say it DOES save on energy bills. I’m an accountant, and with my OCD, I had to check! After a full year of use, it’s still working just as well as when I first got it, which was important to me given the price.

The remote makes it simple to adjust settings without using my phone (though you can if you want). If you wonder what it feels like, the air blows into the Bedjet sheet and provides a cooling feel on you. The fan is like a sound machine to me, which I 💗 love. Not too loud and just right! If you struggle with sleeping hot, night sweats, or want better control over your sleep environment, this is one of those purchases that is worth it over time. This has more than paid for itself, especially now that my night sweats have hit with a vengeance!! This is one of the few products I’ve used that has genuinely improved my sleep. I love it! I highly recommend this product! It’s worth every penny!! ✨" —Renee

Kusini is a small business that specializes in kitchen products. 

Promising review: "I absolutely love fondue, and this made at-home fondue easy and mess-free! Warms up quickly and holds the perfect amount of fondue plus dippers." —Ruby Pagel 

The distance determines how wide and intense the light is — position it farther away for a softer diffused light, or closer up to focus the colorful beam on a specific spot. See a similar sunset lamp in action on TikTok!

BuzzFeed Shopping Editor, Jenae Sitzes, says: "I use both Govee LED strips and a sunset lamp similar to this one (the exact one I have is no longer available) in my WFH setup, which you can see on the right above. I have black walls, so the effect is more subtle, but even so, my sunset lamp helps light the area and instantly makes me feel more cozy, especially when I turn my LED light strips on at the same time. I highly recommend investing in office lighting like this, that's not just your overhead lights! It really makes sitting there eight hours a day feel less painful." 

Promising review: "Easy to use and set up. Originally, we bought this lamp for the cold and dark winter months to give a nice sun glow in the office room — we loved the warm light so much, we moved it into our living room and use it almost every day! Highly recommend!!" —Alex Harris

Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three styles).

Promising review: "The carpet is even better than I expected. My son immediately laid down on it and didn’t want to get up 😊. It adds such a cozy and warm feeling to the room." —Maryna Zinkevych

Get a 9x12 rug from Amazon for $117.31+ (also available in 12 other sizes and 14 styles).

It heats rooms up well that are 400 square feet or smaller.

Promising review: "I am absolutely in love with this fireplace entertainment center! The setup was easier than I expected, and once it was all put together, it completely changed the vibe of my living room. The fireplace is beautiful, and the heat actually warms up the room without being too strong. The LED lights add such a nice touch, especially at night, and the storage space is perfect for keeping everything organized. It holds my large TV with no problem, and the white finish looks clean and modern. Overall, this piece looks way more expensive than it is, and it’s both functional and stylish. If you're thinking about it, just get it. I’m honestly obsessed!" —EveryDaySelects

Get it from Amazon for $169.99+ (available in two sizes, two styles, and three colors).

FYI —Even though your can run this through your washing machine (cold only), the brand recommends dry cleaning for optimal results.

Cozy Earth is a small biz that creates bedding, clothing, towels and more from ~divinely~ cozy materials.

Promising review: "Beyond obsessed. I ordered the gray color. It is incredibly soft and warm. In comparison to the Barefoot Dreams blanket, which is also extremely soft, the Barefoot Dreams is lighter weight and thinner. This one is for right now when it’s 0° in New York and the heat just can’t keep up. It makes me so happy." —Tracy in NY

Get it from Amazon for $228+ (available in three colors and two sizes).

Promising review: "My rental's dryer fried my favorite blanket, and this one is almost identical. So happy with it. Incredibly soft and comforting." —Kellie

Get it from Amazon for $34.19+ (available in 16 colors and four sizes). 

Promising review: "I needed something to help with the amount of cold air that would come into the house every time our front door was opened. Winters in Alaska can be brutal, and our arctic entryway is not heated. Since I hung the thermal curtain, I have noticed a huge difference! Perfect length, great material, super strong magnets…almost too strong. They close on their own every time. Would recommend." —Laroberts907

Get it from Amazon for $39.98 (available in 11 sizes, including the option to customize and in gray or beige).

Promising review: "This is my third set of towels from Quince. I am so happy with the new color choices. These, just like the last 2 sets are such a nice quality and feel. Very happy with them." —Gina G.

Get a set of two from Quince for $80 (available in six colors and three other sizes).

It heats up in just one minute and reaches its highest temperature in just six minutes. It *also* has up to 60 minutes of heating time.

Promising review: "Not only is this great for robes and towels (the dogs greatly appreciate it, too, after a bath), but blankets, socks, and jammies are awesome, too. There’s even a holder inside the lid that allows you to place fragrance discs in it to add a lavender scent for bedtime. Definitely worth the investment for pampering yourself." —K. Evans

Promising review: "We live in Minnesota, and let the heating drop down in our house at night. This makes the late-night bathroom trips a lot more comfortable. A nice luxury." —D

Get it from Amazon for $118.57+ (available in two shapes).

Please note that these are sold per panel and not in a set of two. 

Get a closer look at these in this TikTok from @happilyinspired.

Promising review: "Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!!! I did a lot of homework on finding the perfect curtains for our new home. I needed a lot of them, something pretty, full, and good insulation. It could get very expensive. These were more than I could have wanted, and at such a great price...I ended up getting the longer ones because they cost less (I needed 12 panels). As a result of longer ones, they are fuller on the bottom, look so lovely, and I get all the compliments. My mom is a designer, and I grew up being particular about fabric and how things are made. These are well-constructed and have gorgeous lining, lots of detail put into these, thank you!!" —Mrs

Get a panel from Amazon for $34.80+ (available in 21 colors and 10 sizes).

It also comes with a curtain strap so you can tie it up when you want to let light in. Please note that this is sold as *one* panel.

Promising review: "Used on a bedroom window. High-quality material. It completely blacks out the room and keeps the cold air out. It lies nice and flat against the window." —Kindle Customer

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in 10 colors and 16 sizes).

Promising review: "The item every family needs, they just may not know it! Comfortable for two adults and a dog who's 112 pounds! We all fit nicely and are still comfortable!" —Scott Messick

Get it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in 14 colors).  

These look even prettier layered behind sheer curtains, as shown above.

Many reviewers say the cord is short, so you may want to pick up an extension cord if you don't already have one. 

Promising review: "I love these lights! The settings are so much fun and add excitement to a room when you have guests. The light is so warm and makes it feel so cozy inside! I love to turn off all of the other lights in my apartment and just have these lights going when I am watching a movie. It creates a great warm glow but isn't too bright to wash out the movie. They are also a fun background for pictures!" —J_Thill

Get the string lights in warm white from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in three colors and in a pack of 300 lights or 600 lights and a two-pack).

Promising review: "Excellent purchase for a basement home office!! I also plan to use this for any outdoor sports and have even used it in my husband's vehicle since it does not have heated seats. Don't wait, buy it!" —Rachel

Promising review: "LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! Love the look. Love the temperature settings, although I don't believe I will use the lower ones since the 170 seems to be just right for me. Very simple to operate. Perfect Christmas gift or stocking stuffer for my daughter-in-law." —rkd

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in black or brown).

SlipX Solutions is a small business that specializes in safety-oriented shower and bath accessories. 

Promising review: "I have a high-stress job, and I've started taking baths as a way to unwind. However, it never seemed like I could keep enough water in the tub to really enjoy it. This little thing makes a HUGE difference!! I get at least an extra 3 inches of water, and it is great." —Hyacinthe Snyder

Get it from Amazon for $9.49 (available in eight colors).

Remember that a duvet is just a comforter cover. So make sure you grab a comforter if you don't have one!

I got to try this out, and all I can say is wow, wow, wow, it's SO much harder for me to leave my bed in the morning since putting this on. It just feels so divine against your skin. My one note, though, is I'm not a fan of the duvet ties inside. They are crafted from these plastic buttons that, to me, are kinda cheap, and I've already found some that won't close, which means there's a chance that the comforter will start slipping around inside. But the feel of the material is so luxurious that I just got some duvet clips for extra security.

Promising review: "This is by far the best cotton duvet cover, or any duvet cover, I've ever used. It's extremely soft and comfortable, cooling, and has such an amazing feel to it. Would recommend 10/10" —Nathan C.

Get it from Cozy Earth for $208+ (available in nine colors and three sizes).

Remember that a duvet is just a comforter cover. So make sure you grab a comforter if you don't have one!

Promising review: "If my house caught on fire, this is the first thing I’d grab. But seriously, this is one of my favorite things in my whole house. I feel like it tied my entire room together. I get so many compliments on it, and it is seriously so cozy and well-made. My only complaint would be how hard this thing makes it to get out of bed in the mornings. It’s incredibly soft and isn’t the type of 'fur' that will mat and get gross-looking over time. I rely heavily on reviews when I buy things, so I’m here to tell you — if you’re on the fence about buying this...do it!! Also, the pillowcases are amazing. Super soft and the pom-pom fringe is adorable." —SK

Get it from Amazon for $32.49+ (available in sizes twin, queen, and king and eight colors).

Just FYI — this cutie comes compressed and vacuum-sealed. So, it might need up to 48 hours to fully fluff out.

Promising review: "Don’t judge what it looks like when you first get it! It puffed up nicely in about 8 hours and just keeps getting bigger and softer! We updated my 10-year-old son‘s room for his birthday, and he has a loft bed that he never sleeps in because he’s kind of scared to be up so high, so we got this to try for him to sleep on, and he absolutely loves it! When you first open it, it’s rock hard, but it keeps getting better. Just give it some time. It’s gorgeous and comfortable and worth the price." —B

Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in two sizes and 11 colors). 

Best of all — you just unbox, and it's ready to go!

Promising review: "I had contemplated buying one of the expensive Lovesacs but decided to roll the dice and try a less expensive option. Found this product, read the reviews, purchased it, and hoped for the best. OMG! It’s HUGE (bigger than I imagined in my head) and SO comfortable and supportive. You don’t sink down to the floor like in a traditional beanbag, as this doesn’t have 'beans' inside. The setup was so easy. Going to order another one for my adult son, who just got his first apartment. What a great product and a BIG money saver." —Brittany W.

Get it from Amazon for $181.31+ (available in 19 styles).

The brand was extremely kind enough to send me a couch with their unique StealthTech system to test out, and as someone who L-O-V-E-S being at home, this is for the hardcore homebodies, OK?! WOWZA! Not only is it extremely comfy (I got the love soft fill, but you can also customize and choose their firmer fill), but the StealthTech system is truly next level. It is a speaker and subwoofer system that is built into the couch (!!), giving you the ultimate surround sound experience. It legit feels like I'm at a movie theater anytime I watch anything now, but you can also turn off certain parts, like the subwoofer, if you just want a simpler TV-watching experience. But lemme tell y'all: if putting together IKEA furniture tested relationships, putting this together could end marriages if you're not careful, lol. It's not a difficult process per se, but depending on your setup, it is A LOT of boxes. My partner and I got it put together in two days, but it definitely could have been done in a day if we didn't have other things to do. Buuuut, the brand is also finally offering white-glove service! So if you really don't like putting things together, I wouldn't hesitate to spring for it. Also love that included with the StealthTech system are couch arms that have built-in phone chargers!! Truly, if you are looking for a couch to have with you for life, this is definitely a solid contender.

Get it from LoveSac for $3870+ (originally $5160+; available in dozens of pre-arranged, quick buy options or to be customized to your specific needs).

Big Blanket Co is a small business that, obviously, creates HUUUUGE blankets. The blankets are made with four-way stretch, temperature-regulating fabric, and can fit in standard-sized washing machines. 

Promising review: "I took the leap and bought my first blanket! I am in love with it! It is so soft. I love the weight it has. It keeps me at a good temperature. I have a feeling that I will be getting more. 😉" —Lelia R.

Get it from Amazon for $179+ (available in three styles, two other sizes and 11 colors) or Big Blanket Co for $124.50+ (available in 50 colors/prints and two other sizes). 

Promising review: "Love all things book themed, and this pillow did not disappoint! The colors and texture are fun, and it is a great addition to my library room." —Robyne

Get it from Rifle Paper Co for $119+ (available with two fill options or without fill).

Promising review: "Very cute and soft. Much bigger than I expected, but very firm" —Anonymous 

It’s also energy-efficient, safety-certified, and machine washable!

Promising review: "I have used this to just lounge and watch TV, or even on top of my bed while recovering from illness. It’s great being able to take it room to room or even out on the porch for cooler evenings. I love the color, and it’s soooo soft and cozy! It’s much more lightweight than I expected, too! I really love the quality and functionality of this blanket!" —Missy

Get it from Amazon for $45.98+ (available as a throw or in sizes Twin–King and in 15 colors/designs). 

Promising review: "The feel of these sheets is gorgeous. They breathe, hardly wrinkle, and they are generously sized, so the fitted sheet isn’t tight. We love them. I’m about to purchase our second set." —Bonnie

Get it from Quince for $144+ (available in 34 colors, seven sizes, and with or without a flat sheet).

This set includes a flat sheet, fitted sheet, and one or two pillowcases, depending on bed size. 

Promising review: "Warm, comfortable, heaven. Bought these for our king-sized bed. We have a firm mattress topped with a 3-inch pillow top, and these sheets fit it perfectly! I love the fit. They wash up nicely and feel wonderful on a cold winter night. I'm going to buy more for the guest room. I'm certain our guests will enjoy them as much as we have. Also, the price was amazing for the quality." —Kindle Customer

Get a queen-size from Amazon for $57.99+ (available in nine sizes and 18 colors).

These sheets also hug mattresses up to 16 inches deep.

Promising review: "These sheets are amazing. They don’t feel like conventional flannel sheets. They are much softer and fluffier, almost like sleeping in a warm fleece blanket. The thickness makes them feel extra warm and cozy without being too heavy. I love them so much that I bought them in two colors. The look is stylish on my bed, and the size fits perfectly. The fitted sheet stays in place well, and the pillowcases are soft and comfortable. For the quality, they are great value for money. This set adds so much comfort and warmth to my bed." —Jamie

Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in sizes twin–king and 23 colors).

The king and queen sizes also have control panels for each side. So everyone can sleep at their preferred level of warmth!

Promising review: "Best gift to myself! Heats quickly and evenly. I have muscle issues and heating up my back when I wake up helps me move around more comfortably. Getting into a warm bed on these cold nights is like a warm hug. The timer is very helpful." —Marli

Get it from Amazon for $33.70+ (available in twin, full and king).

It's one size fits all, but many plus-size reviewers report that it fits them comfortably.

Promising review: "This is exactly the cozy, heavy blanket hoodie I've been wanting! It's like wrapping up in the blanket from my bed, without hauling around a king-sized mass of fabric. There's even a hidden pocket inside the kangaroo pouch to keep your little things from falling out. For anyone concerned about the "one size" thing, I'm 5'4", 280 lbs. I wear a 3x in women's. This thing is big enough to tuck my knees up in there and still have a bit of room. It's super-soft, too! I want at least three more." —MandraDawn1

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in 47 colors, including reversible styles and in three options).
