1. A garlic chopper that’ll give you one less daunting task in the kitchen to worry about, especially if your hands smelling like garlic gets you grumpy. Instead of using a knife, just roll this little guy! It saves you chopping time and prevents your hands from reeking.
Remember those cars that scooted around after you pulled them back to wind ’em up? This device is kind of like that. After you fill it with garlic, simply roll it around to chop up the garlic. It saves time and fingers.
Promising review: “This is my holy grail of kitchen gadgets. Little doodad has been a life saver for me. I have major wrist issues and use garlic in almost all of my recipes. This thing chops garlic like there is no tomorrow! In like 10 seconds I can have four cloves of garlic chopped up. But wait! There’s more!! I have used this to chop ginger, jalapeños (it is excellent for this btw!!) and anything else I need to cut very fine (like onions). It is super easy to empty, take apart, and clean. I literally only rinse it out and set it out to dry. I don’t really ‘wash’ the inside as there aren’t any germs there. I don’t know how I ever went without this in my life. I’ll probably be buying many more of these as gifts around Christmas time to share in the love.” —Crystal Keck

Amazon, amazon.com
Promising review: “I wasn’t impressed at first. This doesn’t take the place of cleaning the bowl manually, but it does cut down on how often you need to clean your bowl.

Promising review: “If you’re lazy like me, this is for you. One thing I don’t like doing in the kitchen is chopping vegetables. You do have to cut the vegetables to a certain size so it can fit correctly in the blades, but I don’t mind doing half the work.” —J Rivera
Get it from Amazon for $28.99.
5. A weekly shower cleaner you only need to use once a week and that doesn’t require scrubbing — two things that sound like music to your ears, I’m sure. You don’t even need to be around while it does its work!
Amazon
Promising review: “I had a horrible gray ring in the bottom of my shower that was impossible to remove. I had tried the Dawn Dish Soap method (with a lot of scrubbing) and had even used toilet bowl cleaner to try to remove the soap scum. My next step was to tear out and replace the shower pan and tile. I figured this was my last chance. I ordered the Wet and Forget Shower Spray and really coated the shower walls and floor pan and walked away. I CANNOT begin to tell you how happy I was to rinse down the walls sometime later and watch all that crud roll right down the drain!! This is the best product I have ever used in my life!! Works great and no toxic fumes!!” —Amazon Customer

7. A pack of Affresh dishwasher-cleaning tablets for anyone who was today years old when they learned that yes, they need to clean their dishwasher. They’ll get rid of those mysterious stains and smells on your plates so you won’t have to spend hours scrubbing away at them.
Promising reviews: “Works extremely well. We haven’t done any cleaning on our dishwasher in five years, and there was detergent buildup all over the inside, and a milky film on all our cups. I bought Affresh, ran the dishwasher with two tablets while it was empty, and the difference was astounding. There was still some buildup and I figured it would require another cycle, so I popped another two tablets in, and now it looks and sounds brand new. No more film on the glasses, no more dirty dishes from clogged sprayers, no more odors or buildup around the door seals.” —Martoune
Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $5.39.
8. A set of bedsheet fasteners if you’re anything like us and get frustrated by your fitted sheets bunching up and looking unsightly in your mattress corners. Those days are over.
Promising review: “My boyfriend and I were losing the battle to our pillow top mattress that seemed to keep pulling out fitting sheet out from underneath the mattress. We literally had to adjust it every day and now since having these we haven’t had to touch it once in the three weeks of having it!” —Bailey Sivanich – Brow Boulevard

These are biodegradable and odor-free.
Promising review: “I seriously can’t believe how well these little tablets work. I had the most disgusting Hydro Flask coffee mug — I tried everything. A bottle brush, different kinds of soap, vinegar, EVERYTHING, and there was still a seemingly impenetrable layer of black sludge inside. I let a tablet sit in each of my mugs for an hour or two, and the black sludge rinsed out COMPLETELY, without even scrubbing. They look brand new. What a magical product. No weird smell or taste afterward, either. I liked it so much I used it on another Hydro Flask I use primarily to hold my Bloody Mary mix in the fridge. I couldn’t put anything else in it because it would always taste like spicy tomato juice. Bottle Bright to the rescue! No residual smell or taste anymore. AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING.” —Amazon Customer
Get a 12-pack from Amazon for $8.

Amazon
Promising review: “I am a NEAT FREAK! I love to clean. I literally clean my house daily. It can’t be clean enough. I have a two-story, three-bedroom three-bathroom house with two dogs. This vacuum cleans all of it! This gadget is legit like a little human vacuuming your floors, but super throughly. It goes over all my rugs and hardwood floors, and it goes in the bathrooms and closets and under all the furniture. Once in awhile it gets caught in the wires underneath my TV but most of the time it is able to get itself out of it It’s quiet. My dogs barely even notice it. This is worth every penny! It’s easy to set up, and easy to clean after each use. It does all the hard work for you. Since I’ve had mine, I’ve literally gotten five friends to buy one and they all love it too. (This is NOT a paid advertisement or review. This is just a review from a normal woman who really loves her floors clean).” —Shannon

All you have to do is feed them a bite and you’re good — the supplement will do all the work and now you’ll know your dog is at their best without fainting over the vet’s bill.
Promising review: “Absolutely the best product. It saved my itchy goldendoodle! We tried changing food, Benadryl, medicated shampoo, fish oil, everything you can imagine… nothing worked long-term. He was itching his face so badly he would make himself bleed. Had sores and scabs all over his face and neck. I bought these because they had good reviews and I was desperate. It changed his life! He no longer scratches AT ALL! His coat looks great and all of his sores are healed. He’s the happiest he’s been which makes me a very happy momma. He is also very picky and never eats treats… he eats these every time so that’s an added bonus!” —Darcie Nation

amazon.com, Amazon
Sounds magical! And let me tell you — it is. Get one of these egg-cellent appliances ASAP.
Promising review: “If you are on the fence about getting one of these, GET ONE. It really is as easy as it sounds to have a perfectly cooked egg, no guesswork. Just have an ice bath ready next to the cooker and let the eggs sit for a minute or two in there…peels come right off 🙂 Makes healthy eating a breeze in the morning! Where has this been all my life?!?!?” —rebecca

13. A folding board so folding is the easiest it’s ever been. If folding clothes is the bane of your existence, you need this. It actually makes it…fun??!
14. Avarelle acne patches (also available in extra large) that’ll come to the rescue when a surprise pimple makes an appearance. No need to get yourself grumpy picking at them or dealing with topical acne gels. Just slap these on! Not only do these blend in so they work as a sort of concealer, but they’ll also prevent you from picking or popping your breakout.
Reviewers say they blend in with their skin so they can wear them throughout the day!
Promising review: “I’ve been experimenting with these for the last month and a half, and I am in love. They are really thin and blend into my highly freckled face incredibly well…I have gone out in public twice with them on, because when I did my last second mirror check before I got out of the car, I didn’t notice I had them on! While they absolutely help clean out the skin underneath, the biggest thing it does for me is stops me from touching my face. When I’m stressed out, I will absentmindedly touch/run my hands along my face and jaw constantly. Now, when I notice I’m doing that, I run into the bathroom and put these on any spots I have. Since they are thin and stick really well, I am able to leave them alone and stop touching my face.” —MelsBells
Get a box of 40 round patches for $8.49 and a box of 8 extra-large patches for $8.50, both from Amazon.
15. A power scrubber because it’ll do all the backbreaking work for you. You’ll be done before you’ve even finished saying “let me get my power scrubber.”
Promising review: “I discovered this tool at a friend’s house. Wow! It got into tiny crevices of pots, pans, lids, the stove, sink. It saves painful arthritic fingers from scrubbing. I had to have one! I’ve used it to polish the intricate carvings and trim on my silver pieces, things that I have never been able to get clean by hand. Anything that can be moistened with liquids, gels or cream cleaners should be fine to use it on. I clean my jewelry with it. It’s excellent on my wedding rings. It could be used on grout in the bathroom. I was so happy with it that I ordered another one. It’s been gentle enough but effective enough to get the stains out. I could never accomplish by hand, what this little miracle tool can do.” —Linn D.
Get it from Amazon for $17.99.
16. A wrinkle releaser spray as you’re not about to be late to work or miss exciting plans spending 30 minutes ironing out your clothes. Just spray ’em and be on your merry way.
Promising review: “Whenever I pull a shirt or pants from my closet that has some wrinkles, I lay it on my bed and spray the material wherever the wrinkles are followed by a sweeping of the material to smooth it out and reduce/remove the wrinkles. Turn and complete on the other side. I then hang it up to dry for a few minutes. I will say that if you have embedded wrinkles or a very thick/rough type fabric, it may not work and you’ll need to iron. I find this a convenient item to have as most my shirts are on the thinner side.” —Meatballs Mommy
Get two bottles on Amazon for $13.94.
17. A pack of food spikes for indoor plants because you know what? You’re tired of taking care of houseplants and you just don’t have the green thumb for it. Did you know these existed? They’ll feed and grow your plants with no other work on your part!
Amazon

Promising review: “These are the best supplements for your plants. plant was dying and had lost most of its leaves. I didn’t want to re-pot it because the plant had already grown. But I didn’t want it to die either. Buying the miracle grow indoor plant feeder sticks was a last ditch effort to save this guy and it worked! The fertilizer sticks are easy to use, you just push them into the soil and water. Your plants will flourish once you start feeding them these little guys. I highly recommend this product for happy healthy plants and for plant owners that don’t want to re-pot!” —Crystal

Amazon
Promising review: “I have deck rail flower boxes and they get full sun most of the day. I filled in the drain holes to hold more water and added these to the soil. Both made a huge difference in the quality of life for the plants. They were and still are gorgeous even if I couldn’t water every day. I do have to admit I used more per planter than the recommended amount.” —Pattijwr
Get it from Amazon for $9.72.
19. A tartar-removing breath freshener for dogs because it cleans teeth with no brushing required if trying to brush your dog’s teeth gets you and your dog grumpy. This can be added to water to help reduce plaque and bacteria. It’s basically dog mouthwash!
Promising review: “Talked to my vet about this kind of product. She was pretty informative. This stuff isn’t a miracle, but it’s helpful between cleanings and she said it was worth using as long as the dogs get regular brushing and professional checkups too. So, it’s a good thing as part of regular care.” —Keith M. Hamm
Get it from Amazon for $10.12.

Promising review: “The degreaser I have been looking for! This stuff is magic in a bottle. Not making this up at all. If you have nasty buildup in your kitchen, you HAVE to get this. My stove looks brand new. All you do is spray it, let it sit for a little bit, then wipe away. Best cleaning solution yet. I’m going to try their other products.” —Alexis Briana Lindsey

22. A clay brown sugar bear because it’s adorably charming but also very useful. Put it in your brown sugar and it’ll magically help it retain its moisture for three to six months! No need to get grumpy over sugar gone bad.
Amazon
All you have to do to “set” it is soak the bear in water for 20 minutes, dry the outside of it, and plop it in with your brown sugar. It also works on baked goods, cakes, cookies, marshmallows, and dried fruit!
Promising review: “Had a large amount of brown sugar and couldn’t keep it soft even in a tight container. I purchased new 5-quart jars for my flour, sugar and so forth and quickly realized my brown sugar was a ROCK! I purchased this, soaked it and placed it in the sugar as instructed. Within hours it was soft again which was amazing to me! I have about two pounds of sugar in the 5-quart jar currently. The jar is sealed gasket but I haven’t had to resoak the bear yet (only a month in use currently). Would recommend to anyone at this point, just mad I have wasted so much brown sugar over the years.” —diosa

Promising review: “This looks amazing. I wasn’t sure how it would look due to how it is a personal color based on pH, but it looks stunning on. It really looks amazing and I’ve gotten so many compliments from everyone who has seen me wearing it. It’s my favorite item to wear, even on my low-key days when I’m not wearing any other makeup but foundation. It’s such a fun item, I’m going to buy another tube to ensure I have more to wear.” —Emily

Promising review: “If I could give this more stars I would! I am the worst cook in history. My poor children! It’s so bad I have a rule: if I can’t eat it, we order pizza. Which happens quite a lot in my house. Until I got this amazing invention! I’ve had it for about two weeks now and all I can say is OH. MY. GOD! Why am I just now finding out about this? When I did cook, one of the best meals I used to make was chicken tikka. It would take me three hours or more and I’d have 300 dishes to do after. So I stopped making it. Then my friend kept telling me about this and I was like, I don’t need another dang appliance in my house that I won’t use. She brought it over and showed me how to use it and cooked something that would normally take me two hours to cook, cooked in less the 45 minutes. All I had to do was sauté, throw some stuff in there, and turn it on. So I bought one and now my chicken tikka is done in half the time! And I only have one pot to clean! I can’t say anything negative about this bad boy. I’ll never cook on my stove again!” —Krystal B.

26. A Revlon dual hair dryer and brush because it dries your hair, imparts volume and shine, styles, and makes it look like you totally went and got a professional blowout, which will def take your mood from two to 10, especially if doing all those things separately gets you surly and sour.

It comes with three heat settings and is designed to work on all hair textures — reviewers with 2a through 4c hair mentioned it working for them, and especially noted that it helps cut down on drying time!
Promising review: “OK. I never write Amazon reviews which isn’t cool since I rely on them so much … but I just had to write one for this!!! So my BFF has been trying to talk me into this for dryer for a while. I have REALLY thick, wavy, frizzy hair that never dries pretty naturally. I either get blow outs or spend about 20 minutes blow-drying my hair and THEN flat iron it. So I finally caved and tried this dryer for the first time last week. I started out with pretty wet hair and product in it. About 90% of the way into the dry, I thought it was OK…but then everything came together. My hair was straight, smooth, and styled in about 10 minutes tops. I couldn’t believe it. I immediately called my friend who told me to try it with my hair almost air dried. WHAT? So I did it the next time and again…WOW! This time I dried my hair in about three minutes…not as straight and smooth as the first time but pretty darn close. This dryer is a GAME-CHANGER. I can’t believe the amount of money I’m going to save on blow outs!!! My BFF said it’s also great for bedhead and quick touchups too. Can’t wait. TRY IT…you won’t be disappointed!!!” —Ann
Get it from Amazon for $41.99+ (available in eight colors).

Promising review: “My cat likes nothing. He doesn’t go into paper bags, ignores boxes, isn’t curious about the birds. Mostly he eats and sleeps and allows us to pet him. But he LOVES this! I took someone’s tip to stick it on the corner of a cabinet with looped duct tape. Seems to be holding fine, even though Igor rubs himself senseless on this thing. Also the catnip that came with it must be killer stuff. He really goes for it. So Igor gives it a big five stars!” —AmazonCustomer
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
28. A beverage chiller for when you need a quick cup of iced coffee to perk you up for that Zoom meeting.
