Promising review: "Started getting white streaks all over my dishes. That never happened before. Thought it was my detergent and changed it, but no difference. Clean dishes with this weird white film on them. Wash them by hand, then put them back in the dishwasher, and white film again! Then I did an internet search to figure out what was going on (a dishwasher is an incredibly simple piece of machinery.) Found this! Bought it. Used it. Dishes are clean again!" —Carey Holzman

And of course all the nonelectric parts are top-rack dishwasher-safe, which means cleanup's just as low-effort as cooking.

Marquaysa, one of my colleagues here at BuzzFeed, owns this, loves it, and says: "This thing may be small but it makes a big difference! When the eggs are done? Those babies are DELICIOUS! I threw some Himalayan salt, paprika, and a green herb mix on mine. I thought it would just help me on the many days when I feel too sluggish to really cook but it's actually good even when I'm bouncing off the walls and feeling up to making a full spread."

Promising review: "I saw this on a BuzzFeed list and, even though I am a fully functioning adult who has never had trouble cooking eggs, I had to have it. I have not been disappointed. It makes especially lovely, perfectly round omelets with minimal cleanup required. Hard and soft boiled eggs cook evenly and taste great. The poached eggs are tender and melt in your mouth over toast. As other reviews have mentioned, the timer alarm is LOUD. Like, a fire alarm mixed with an incoming nuclear missile alarm, but make it about 12 times louder. There's no way to turn it off, so prepare to muffle it up with some cotton and tape if you want to keep your ears. It's the perfect kitchen appliance. I grin from ear to ear every time I use it." —Sonnet A. Fitzgerald

Promising review: "I actually found this product on a BuzzFeed article on things that you can't believe you don't already own. I figured I’d give it a shot as we have plenty of gross-looking travel coffee mugs. I was not disappointed, in fact, I was blown away. I was amazed and even a tad disgusted at how gross they truly were." —Nanners1010

These heavy-duty plastic containers are microwave-, freezer-, and dishwasher-safe. They even have little vents you can open so you can microwave them with the lid on, preventing splatters!

Promising review: "Best upgrade! We'd been using plastic storage containers from the grocery store, where you pay $8 and get a bunch from a plastic bag company. My husband HATED those. They would stain, leak, or smell — even after they were cleaned. So when I saw these on BuzzFeed, I ordered a kit. We love them! Easy to clean, certain foods don't stain, not one leak has happened — and we eat soup and stir fry a lot for lunch. I immediately ordered five more so we could have a total of eight. We tend to do lunch at work 4/5 days. It was perfect. Also, the food seems to stay a bit fresher too, because of it being airtight. 100% would recommend to anyone looking for a good set of storage containers." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "AMAZING Cleaner!!! I saw this on BuzzFeed and bought it right away. This product delivers on its promises. I used it on my fridge to get rid of fingerprints my son left from two years ago and it worked! Not only did it finally remove the prints easily, there was no chemical smell. A little goes a long way. I wish I had discovered this sooner!" —Agnes P Lau

They're machine washable, too! Hustle Sew Shop is a Saint Helens, Oregon based small biz featuring beautiful and customizable hand-sewn goods!

Promising review: "LOVE these splash catchers! They save me from having to chase the puddles that form around the base of our faucet before they start creeping over the counter. Made well with neatly finished edges, and packaged with gift-ready care. Highly recommended!" —Alina

You just scoop some ground coffee into the included screw-on filter, measure your water, stick it in the fridge, and let it work its magic! One reviewer mentions that they made a mark on the outside for the water height, and now don't even have to bother with measuring.

Maitland, an editor here at BuzzFeed, bought this back in 2018 and still loves it! She says: "It's inexpensive, foolproof, and low-key stylish. The coffee keeps for days and days! And thanks to the airtight seal, the flavor will stay fresh and free of odors from other food in your fridge (looking at you, garlicky leftovers)."

Promising review: "I found this on BuzzFeed and decided to get it for my husband. In all our five years together, I’m not sure I’ve ever bought him something he loved this much. We use it every single day, and we have an infant, so it's constantly working overtime with us. It's easy to use, and we just throw it in the dishwasher once a week or so. (We basically empty it and just make more coffee.) Definitely worth it." —KJ

Note that it doesn't unclog your disposal — you'll need a plumber for that. But it's great for stinky smells!

Promising review: "Holy cow I didn't realize how easy and quick it was to clean a garbage disposal until I bought this product! Very simple instructions, literally takes five minutes and some hot water and VOILA! You have a clean, no-longer-stinky garbage disposal. The smaller bag lasted me about six weeks, as I didn't feel the need the clean the disposal weekly like the packaging recommended. But let me say that anytime I got a whiff of an odor, all I did was drop one of those packs in the disposal and the smell was GONE! Plus the blue foam bubbling through the sink was amusing to watch ;-). Worth every penny!!" —VadersGirl

Your drawer does need to be at least 3 1/4 inches high for it to work, but in my experience at least, that's most drawers.

Promising review: "So I stumbled upon this thing on one of those BuzzFeed kitchen gadget lists. The second I saw it I was intrigued. The wife and I were wanting a drawer separator for cutlery, but we couldn't find anything that utilized space effectively. This thing is great at keeping things separated and is designed to use space well. We store our spoons, forks, and butter knives using this separator and still have space left over in our drawer to store oddly shaped utensils such as ramen spoons. It feels like the right tool to get the job done." —A.J.

Get it on Amazon for $8.99 (also available in a larger double size and in a version for knives).

Promising review: "Words cannot express how thrilled I am with this product. Dry, scuffed cabinets now look like NEW. You can watch this stuff work in seconds before your eyes. My bathrooms, laundry room and kitchen cabinets look like they were professionally refinished. This stuff is no joke. I actually feel stupid that I let the wood go so long without touching it up. It's so easy, I shouldn't have waited until the wood looked terrible." —Julie G

FYI, if you're facing much damage that's a little worse than that, you might want to try their other (also well-reviewed!) product, called Restore-A-Finish, first; it does more to hide minor scratches, white heat rings, deep water marks, and stuff like that. The two products are actually made to be used together! Get that on Amazon for $11.92+ (available in nine finishes).

All of the parts that get dirty are dishwasher safe. It comes in four different sizes; the 3-quart's good for 1-2 people, the 6-quart for 3-6 people, and the 8-quart for large groups or if you're doing a lot of regular meal prep. This model's one that's great for beginners, and combines seven appliances in one: it's a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, sauté pan, food warmer, and yogurt maker. If you decide to get one, definitely check out these Instant Pot tips and tricks!

Promising review: "Best kitchen appliance that we've EVER owned!! The first month that we owned it we used it EVERY night. No joke. Meals came out very tasty, tough cuts of meat were tender, and cooking time was greatly reduced. Even after two years we still use it at least two times a week. Eight minutes on high pressure and an entire pot full of potatoes are fully cooked and ready to be mashed. Plus, there's no chance that the potatoes will boil over or make a mess.

This gem has helped us to try recipes that we would never try on a stove top, like Indian food or Chinese. The only thing that I don't like about it is that it takes up a ton of counter space. But I'll gladly make room for it because it has been a lifesaver. If you don't like to cook, if you cook for your family, if you are looking for more variety in your meals, or if you are just looking to save time, BUY THIS!! You will not regret it." —Ladyinred29

Other reviewers like it in their potatoes, bread, and scrambled eggs.

Promising review: "My 6-year-old son is super picky with his mac and cheese (as in, would only eat Kraft) so when he had to go gluten free it was one of the things he missed the most. We tried all of the prepackaged gluten-free ones and he hated them. We found that he liked Barilla brand gluten-free elbow pasta so I needed to find a gluten-free cheese to go with with it. This was a hit! I mixed it with a little milk and butter, and he ate two bowls. This is real cheese, all natural ingredients and they suggest keeping it refrigerated. I'm glad we finally found a replacement for his mac 'n' cheese!" —Naomi A. Dejesus Howard

Because be it artisanal mustard or a drugstore foundation, you paid good money for every ounce of that product! And yes, they actually work, like, really well — here's our Spatty review.

Promising review: "So worth it! I'm so happy with it. You will definitely save money using this. I think about how much I could have saved if this was invented 30 years ago. I mostly use it for small makeup jars. I tested out the longer one on a 18-oz lotion and it worked fine. Some reviews complain about not being able to get every curve and corner of their container. ..oh please.! You get so much more than you would without it." —Liz

Get the set of two — one with a 6-inch handle, and another with a 12-inch handle (for different tasks!) — on Amazon for $9.99.

No need to bother with any other half-baked hacks that theoretically keep the oxidation at bay.

Promising review: "Rarely do I buy something that delivers 100% of what they claim it will. I'm happy to report that this completely lived up to my expectations. Truth be told, it works even better than I expected it to. I made a batch of guac a week ago. Two or three times during the week, I unlocked it, dipped a chip or two and then re-locked it. After a week, the guacamole is as fresh as if I made it this morning. I typically make a batch of guac each week and use it as a snack or as a spread on sandwiches. I also typically throw out one-third of the batch because it spoils before we can eat it. Not any more. I estimate the food I'm not wasting will actually pay for the Guac-Lock in about a month." —mhogan

I tested them back in 2018 — and wrote a full Rubbermaid Freshworks review — and still use them and love them. The secret's in the lid: it's airtight except for a small filter that lets in the precise, best balance of fresh air. Plus its removable bottom lattice tray lets the air circulate all around the fruit and veg while keeping it out of any moisture. And it's top-rack dishwasher safe! The only thing to know: I always wash my produce first before putting it in the container, and make sure there isn't any mold on it at all, because the containers can accelerate mold if it's there.

Promising review: "After trying any number of other "stay fresh" containers and bags, I can tell you that nothing beats these. I've had peppers, cucumbers, kale, and more last 2 weeks or more in these things. They're also safe to put in the top rack of your dishwasher. These come in a variety of sizes and I'm not ashamed to say I have most of them. The one con is that they are a bit bulky and can fill up your fridge fast. The bigger pro, though, is that I'm no longer throwing my hard-earned money down the garbage disposal because I didn't eat the veggies before they spoiled. Get these! You will not be sorry." —Amazon Customer

Reviewers say this 2.6-quart size is best for one to two people; if you're feeding a group, they also make a larger, 6 quart size.

Promising review: "I love this air fryer! I think I’ve used it nearly every day since I got it. I’ve cooked wings twice, a pork chop, chicken tenders, pizza, okra — it's so versatile and I have zero complaints so far. I have the small one but it is the perfect size for one person; to give you an idea, I was able to cook 10 chicken drumettes at one time. If you love fried food but don't NEED the fried food, you will love it!" —Ami Lagergren

Get it on Amazon for $49.95+ (available in five colors).

You have to do the vacuuming yourself, but it's honestly not difficult at all! I've been using one for years and it still does its job with aplomb: you just quickly wet the bottom of the stopper under the tap, stick it in the bottle, and pump until you hear a clicking noise. I'm writing this on a Tuesday, and working on a bottle that I opened on Friday night, drank again on Sunday and Monday nights, and will finish tonight!

Promising review: "My wife loves red wine. I don't. This means that when we open a bottle, she's had to do one of two things. 1) Drink it all at once. This leaves my wife in a pile on the bathroom floor. No fun. 2) Leave it open. The cheap stuff we buy goes bad pretty darn fast. This was a nice cheap vacuum that worked well and held a seal on a variety of sized bottles. My wife can enjoy a glass a day all week and not feel guilty about it going bad. I won't say that it's saved my marriage or anything like that, but it's nice little addition to our kitchen." —John

Get a set of one pump plus two rubber "corks" on Amazon for $16.99+ (available in five colors).

It even makes another ~pop~ noise when you take it off again — which helps you know it's actually sealed well. I bought this in 2020 and it really does help the bubbles last for a good two or three days! (I haven't ever waited longer than that to finish a bottle of sparkling, so I don't know exactly how long keeps champs fizzy.) It's definitely been worth it though, and paid for itself several times over in the amount of bubbly it's saved me from having to pour out!

Promising review: "I love this stopper. It works better than anything else I've tried at keeping Champagne carbonated. The longest I've used it is five days and when I open the bottle it was still very fizzy; probably about three-quarters compared to when it was first opened. It can be a little tricky to make sure you get the sides snapped on but once you learn the trick it works great. When you take it off be sure to have your hand or a towel across the top as it has a lot of pressure." —Amazon Customer

GreenCityLiving is a Denver-based small business that carries all kinds of eco-friendly things for your home. Even better? They donate 2.5% of sales to Climate Emergency Fund, an organization that supports climate activists.

Promising review: "These are amazing!!! They work! And no stains!!! I was concerned that since I don't use Dawn or a big name brand dish soap, my earth-friendly soap might not cut the grease as well, but that was not the case! My bacon sponge is perfectly clean and spotless! I love it! So glad I ordered two! I couldn't be more pleased!!!" —cattealover

Get it from GreenCityLiving on Etsy or Amazon for $14.99+ (available in three sizes).

If that's not enough, it has other bells and whistles: it's dishwasher safe and features a soft grip handle and an angled nozzle!

Promising review: "Our old liquid measuring cups were beginning to get worn and very hard to read. I had seen these angled measuring cups before and wanted to give them a try, so I bought two (2-cup versions) to replace our existing cups. I've only gotten to use them a handful of times, but I can already tell you they are better than traditional measuring cups. I have good eyesight, so reading a traditional measuring cup isn't a problem. However, I've always disliked having to lean over to watch the cup fill up, or start/stop filling to make sure I have what I need. With the overhead reading, I can pour my liquid in and know exactly when to stop. In my opinion, this is the only way measuring cups should be made in the future." —SK

Get it from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in one cup, two cup, or four cup sizes).

Psst...those two holes on the lid in the left pic? They'll measure out single and double servings of some pastas for you!

Katy, an editor here at BuzzFeed, LOVES to use this; she says: Two of the most basic facts about me are that 1) I love pasta and 2) I'm lazy as heck. Cooking pasta is pretty easy, even for someone like me who rarely cooks. But still, it's sometimes a little more than I want to do. What I really needed was something that could have the whole process done in under 15 minutes and that I could just toss in the dishwasher.

Enter the Fasta Pasta (great name btw). I'm really amazed by what a game-changer it is, as well as how user-friendly it is. It comes with a booklet of instructions on how long to cook/how much pasta and water to use for all different shapes of pasta, plus there's an extended list on the product's website. All you have to do is measure out the pasta and fill the tub with water to the appropriate fill line, then microwave it on high for the noted amount of time. When it's done, you pop on the lid, which has convenient handles. I was nervous about using my bare hands to take this out of the microwave even with the handles, but amazingly it doesn't get that hot! The lid also has a built-in strainer, which is perfect for both helping you fill the Fasta Pasta with a precise amount of water and for straining once the pasta is cooked. Then voila! You've got pasta! Check out my full Fasta Pasta review (#2), and yes, please cast me in an infomercial about it."

Bonus: they're totally dishwasher-safe. (I have a couple myself and have used 'em since 2016. I run them through the top rack all the time, and they're still in perfect condition!)

Promising review: "I've tried a LOT of reusable bags as there are a lot of options out there all using a variety of materials. The fabric ones just get gross over time. The vinyl ones are hard to clean and aren't usually dishwasher safe. There are other silicone ones that need a separate rod to close them that you can easily lose. This one is the most simple and easy to use. No separate pieces to lose. Can withstand any temperature/microwave/dishwasher/whatever. And if they get gunky they are very easy to clean and I trust that they aren't hiding gross crumbs in any of the crevices." —Megan A.

Get a sandwich-size bag on Amazon for $12.99+ (also available in half-gallon, snack, or pocket sizes, a bigger "stand up" size, or a bundle of four sizes).

Several reviewers talk about how it fits perfectly in a drawer, but you could also use Command Picture-Hanging Strips to mount it on a wall in your pantry or on the back of a door! (It also comes with holes in the back if you wanted to hang it the old-fashioned way, instead.)

Promising review: "If you told my teenaged self that a plastic bag organizer is what would excite me at 32, I would have rolled my eyes...but here we are! Absolutely love this product. Quick shipping and great quality." —Ellen Blaize

If you're looking for something even spicier (looking at you, people who put Sriracha on everything), check out their Extra Hot version!

Bek, one of my former colleagues here at BuzzFeed, loves this honey! She says: "It's delicious on pizza, empanadas, tacos, burgers, chicken sandwiches, and CHEESE! This is a must for a good cheese plate. It's a little hot, but it's not overbearing, so it serves more to enhance flavors than to burn your mouth. It manages to blend in perfectly with whatever else you're eating. It's not honey on pizza; it's a delicious salty and sweet slice with just a little bit of heat."

Promising review: "I was a skeptic, but now I AM a believer. This mixed up honey is absolutely fabulous. I ordered three bottles more after my initial order. Why? Because it is really good on everything. And I mean EVERYTHING. Soft pretzels, toast, biscuits, waffles, cereal, yogurt, ice cream, and definitely pizza. Gives everything in your kitchen a small kick of sweet heat flavor without burning your mouth. I have told many of my friends about this magical elixir and they all agree — this is the BEST specialty honey any of us have ever had. Don't hesitate to buy it. It is absolutely wonderful stuff. I most HIGHLY recommended!" —Jeff R. Clow

Promising review: "I’m a barista at Starbucks so obviously I know how I like my coffee. For a while I was using an immersion blender to froth my milk for my morning cup of coffee, but it just wasn't doing what I wanted it to do. I finally bought this frother and I’m so so happy with it!! It doesn't need to be plugged in so it takes up way less space. It is a lot quieter than the blender, and I can use any size cup I want because the frother is so small. Not only can I heat up my milk for a hot coffee, but I can also use it just the same with cold milk for my iced coffee!! Highly recommend this product!!" —Heather Michael

Promising review: "I’ve owned mine for over three years now and use it regularly at home. The knife is more than sharp enough to cut an avocado in half quickly and easily but not sharp enough to cut skin. I’ve let my 10-year-old granddaughter use it all the time since she was seven. Pitting couldn't be easier or safer: three slightly rounded, blunted, recessed blades grab the pit, and the finger hole allows you to push it out easily. My blades are still fine after three+ years. Then in one fast easy motion I have seven even slices of avocado ready for my sandwich or salad. I didn't even need to scrape it out with a spoon." —Tony C

They're designed to be incredibly efficient with the space on your shelves, the rounded corners make for easy pouring, and you press the button on top to open and seal the containers. This eight-piece baking set comes with five containers: two large ones for things like flour, two small ones that you can use for things like sprinkles or powdered sugar, and one medium one that's perfect to store brown sugar. It also has two plastic scoops that attach to the underside of the large container's lids, plus a terracotta brown sugar saver that you soak in water for 20 minutes then attach to the lid to keep your sugar soft.

Promising review: "I've been using one of these for popcorn storage for years now and recently have bought several sets in different sizes to organize my pantry and countertops. I love how closely together they fit so that I can use every bit of space. The lids fit tightly and are interchangeable between units of the same size. The large ones come with scoops that snap onto the underside of the lid. I also bought the ring that you soak in water to help keep your brown sugar from becoming a rock and it works great! I've got these in four sizes and I love them all!" —Marilyn WK

Elizabeth, an editor here a BuzzFeed, swears by this sharpener: "The little sharpener comes with detailed instructions and actually fits in my knife drawer. I set it on the edge of my cutting board and pulled my knife through the coarse notch three times, per the instructions. With my newly sharpened knife I was able to slice through some mushrooms with no effort…even the stem! I also manhandled an onion and it was sooo easy slicing through the skin."

Promising review: "I use this on my high-end German knife and it performs as well as any expensive sharpener. If your "good" knife requires some fancy sharpener, perhaps the knife is the problem. I use this on three large kitchen knives as well as paring knives, and it keeps them all in tip-top shape. I do a lot of chopping, so having every knife tomato-ready is great. If you want an expensive sharpener, be my guest; for me, I'd prefer to spend my time USING sharp knives, rather than adding undetectable macho-sharpness I don't need. Find a couple of good videos before you start — the instructions are OK, but don't actually demonstrate all the features!" —Pinchas

I have used it numerous times for all these years, and it just gets better as it gets older. It will open anything, and makes my grip strong. I always wanted another one to keep on my RV. Then I found these — same product! Every home should have at least one." —Dianne

The reviewer's picture on the above right shows the difference between the first rinse cycle they ran with the pod in, and the subsequent two: it got cleaner every time! I will say that these probably aren't as eco-friendly as sticking with the vinegar/water directions that came with your brewer, but if you know you're just never going to do that, these are a great alternative to keep your machine working well and coffee tasting good!

Promising review: "I bought this product because the needle in my Keurig 2.0 keeps clogging causing inconsistent brew and taste. These cleaning cups fixed both of my issues and especially liked that it was 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: "This is a fast, effective and low-cost means to prepare popcorn. I got tired of paying a premium for microwave popcorn packets at the grocery. I didn't want another appliance on my counter to air pop either. This was the perfect solution. I use inexpensive bulk popping corn, no oil or salt. I pull the Salbree out, expand it and add 1/4 cup of popping corn kernels in the base to the full line. I put it in the microwave for 3+ minutes and listen for the kernels to stop popping. Using the cool handles I lift it out of the microwave, give it a minute to cool and add just enough butter to give it flavor. Then I eat right out of the same bowl I cooked in. When done I dump out the few kernels that didn't pop. I wash it out with dish soap and hot water, let it dry and then put it away for next time. Economical, safe, less oil and salt and only one bowl to clean. No new appliance and no metal in the microwave. Pure genius. A great value." —RobG

Several reviewers say a little goes a long way, which makes sense since this is meant to be used with those large popcorn machines!

Emma, an editor here at BuzzFeed, is obsessed with this! She says: "Our family recently unearthed this because beloved To All The Boys I've Loved Before author Jenny Han mentioned that it was her secret to delicious popcorn, and it may have just wrecked me for other at-home popcorn for the rest of my life. It genuinely tastes just as salty and buttery and savory as fresh movie theater popcorn. I inhaled it so fast that every single one of my organs lit up in mild alarm."

Promising review: "I used to use Flavacol during my time working at an amusement park and popping popcorn for hungry guests, so I knew this was what the "professionals" use. I am happy to report that using this does make your popcorn taste like it was just popped at a movie theater. I like to put a little bit of oil on my kernels, mix in some Flavacol, and then add it to the pot of oil on my stove top when it's hot enough (as opposed to sprinkling it on top of freshly popped corn, which I could see easily accidentally adding too much). It also means that I'm no longer loading up my popcorn with additional toppings like butter or plain salt. Yum!" —Kate R

They're made by Black-owned, San Francisco-based bean brand A Dozen Cousins; the pack includes a bag each of black beans, pinto beans, chickpea curry, red beans, refried black beans, and refried pinto beans. Everything's vegan and made with avocado oil.

Katy, an editor here at BuzzFeed, enjoys eating these on a regular basis; she says: "I personally swear by their black beans, which I have just recently become completely obsessed with. They're so flavorful and perfectly seasoned and shockingly easy. Plus, one bag has about two small servings for one person, so I have leftovers the next day. I've been enjoying them with quesadillas and nachos, in homemade burrito bowls, and over microwave seasoned rice."

Promising review: "Who writes a review about beans? Somebody who loves beans but had given up on them, until now. This is a great product. Canned beans from my local supermarket are always a disappointment, so I stopped getting them. I don't have time to cook beans myself, but A Dozen Cousins beans are fresh and taste terrific. I've been trying to avoid packaged, processed foods but the natural ingredients make these different. I can feel good about eating them. The beans are whole and not mashed up liked in cans. All of the varieties are seasoned well and versatile. I've had them on their own, in salads, and in wrap sandwiches. Do yourself a favor and order some. You won't regret it." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Excellent organization system! I once opened the fridge often, always looking for something I hadn't seen the last time I checked. The thing is — I often found something new because it just wasn't organized in a functional way. Now, with this system, I find what I'm looking for the first time. And when a bin is empty, I know I need to buy more of that product and just ask my smart home to add that item to my shopping list. Very grateful for the sense of calm and control that this fridge organization system has given me, and for all of the food that is no longer going bad in the back of the fridge!" —Chelsea T.

Promising review: "These labels are perfect! I ordered several to organize and label fridge bins. I love the font. They are super easy to apply as well. I may end up labeling everything in my house." —Wendy Norman

Promising review: "These little things are huge when it comes to extending my produce life, across the board. My lettuce NEVER lasted this long (a full month and still crisp and no browning!) even with the green bags I used to use. My avocados just stay green for weeks on end. I have to take them out just to get them to ripen. How is that possible?! My jalapeños, alfalfa sprouts, cabbage, zucchini and squash, ALL last weeks on end. That's major money savings for my household, as I typically throw away half my produce that goes bad before we can eat them. Anyway, they truly work. You can't go wrong. I am beyond pleased." —RHR Paige

Promising review: "What a great little tool I didn't know I needed! It's very easy to use and it really does work. You can core a pineapple in about 10 seconds, it's great! So far, I've noticed two ways to do it: one where you send the corer all the way through the pineapple (this way is messy but easy because everything slides right out) or you can put the corer almost all the way through and yank out the core (less messy, a little more challenging). I've been using it the first way over the sink. Love this thing!" —LisaRi

Besides brownies, it works well for non-dessert dishes that improve with crispy edge bits, like mac 'n' cheese, lasagna, or casseroles. A spatula and some brownie recipes are also included!

Promising review: "My mom loves brownies. Growing up we'd fight over the corners and edge pieces, because those are our favorite. I bought this pan for my mom, and she loves it. Every piece is an edge, so there are no 'bad' brownies (not that the middles are bad, just a bit inferior to the edges in our opinions). When I visit, we all get as many edges as we want. I gave her this pan eight years ago and it's still in great shape." —ANM

Yes, this is the same cooker from Shark Tank! (The company now makes all kinds of rapid cookers, so take a peek if you're a regular oatmeal or brownie eater.) And they're all BPA-free and dishwasher safe.

Promising review: "Possibly the best thing I have ever purchased. Like legit, it cooks the ramen perfectly and it's super easy to clean. I gave the red one to my friend who is also an avid ramen lover. I don't even put the flavoring in anymore — I can just mix in kimchi with some fish and it's like using spaghetti. Seriously sweet when you don't want to clean up a million pots and pans or wait or sweat your butt off over a hot stove." —P Y

Promising reviews: "This smells so subtle and pleasant. I bought it to eliminate food smells after cooking. There is minimal throw on while it is burning, but I actually like that the smell remains subtle enough to notice but not so strong I have to put the candle out within the hour. I got the candle less than two weeks ago and have been using it nonstop!" —E

"We moved into a house that stood empty for over a year and whose previous owner did not do a great job of cleaning up after pets. The kitchen smelled like cat pee, and NOTHING we tried could touch the odor. I found this candle via BuzzFeed, and I 100% recommend! The odor is gone after two days. Buy this candle, you won't regret it!" —Meghan Arbuckle
