1. A Michael Scott/Prison Mike reversible dishwasher magnet because you have accidentally used a dirty mug for your morning cup of Joe one too many times this week. Use this magnet so that the entire household knows not to touch that deceptively clean-looking bowl that you definitely have not washed yet — perhaps they'll even be inspired to clean it "ASAP as possible."
Promising review: "My whole family is a fan of The Office, so when I was searching for a magnet we could use on our dishwasher, this was the hands-down winner. Does it go with my farmhouse decor? Nope, not at all. But it does get the attention of two teenage boys. Had I gone with something a bit more my decor style, I can guarantee you it would not be as useful. I mean, we all would much rather see Prison Mike staring back at us than suit and tie Michael Scott, right? And there is only one way for that to happen...clean out the dishwasher!" —R. Funk

2. A "Pizza Pack," to store all of the leftover slices of pizza from the pies you order. This container is collapsible and easy to store, and it can stack up to five slices without letting them stick together. So you can place it into the microwave without fear of the cheese sticking to the back of another slice and completely ruining your leftovers!
Pizza Pack is a small business that specializes in sustainable food storage solutions.
Promising review: "It's always a pain to put away leftover pizza. It never seems to work. UNTIL THIS PRODUCT!!! I am very happy with my purchase. It's easy to keep the pieces separate from others and you don't have a large bulky box letting your crust dry out. You can use it for one piece or several — it is very easy to expand. The best part is that it is very easy to clean. Storing the Pizza Pack when not in use doesn't take up a lot of space either. Try it." —B. Cirincione
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in multipacks and ten colors).
3. A cult-favorite ~secret~ popcorn salt because the taste of movie theatre popcorn is elite, and you want that same buttery-salty-goodness without having to actually exit your home. Netflix movie nights just became a whole lot better.
Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord has to say about this: "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 am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn (I have no self-control). This has by far been my favorite 'TikTok made me buy' item. My at-home popcorn is now my favorite thing to make and I don't need to go to the theater for popcorn. Very much worth the purchase and this will last me such a long time." —S Martinez
Get it from Amazon for $9.60.
4. A "Hell Done" digital thermometer for vanishing the risk of overcooked meat because absolutely no one likes chewing on a rubber shoe. This device will display the accurate temperature of your food in a matter of seconds — seconds that are all too precious in the delicate art of cuisine. Your meal will be positively ~sinful~.
Promising review: "This thermometer not only works perfectly, but is a great conversation starter at gatherings! I've used it a few times now and am completely satisfied with the purchase. It is accurate, and the display is super easy to read. If you buy this, make sure to read the back of the box ;)." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
5. A "Gracula" garlic crusher, because if Damon Salvatore isn't available to help you whip something up in the kitchen, at least this lil' Dracula can. You don't need to be Elena Gilbert to get the help of an ancient immortal choppin' up your garlic for your famous lasagna.
Promising review: "I love this little guy. I found him on a BuzzFeed list and had to have it as soon as I saw it! I’ve minced as many as five cloves in it in seconds. It’s a little tricky getting all of the garlic out once minced (I use a silicone basting brush to get most of it but I always use more than the recipe calls for anyway so it’s not a deal breaker). Cleanup is a breeze because he goes right in the dishwasher!" —Barbie
Get it from Amazon for $18.99.
6. A pancake batter dispenser for those who wish they could move into their local IHOP. Just mix the batter inside the container, and squeeze the handle to dispense some perfectly portioned batter right onto your griddle — no splatter, no mess!
Promising review: "This pancake batter dispenser is such a game-changer! It makes portioning batter so much easier and mess-free, which is a huge plus when making pancakes, waffles, or cupcakes. Cleaning it is super simple, and the measuring labels are a handy touch. The only small downside is that it leaks just a tiny bit if the batter is very liquid, but that’s understandable and easy to manage. Overall, it’s a fantastic tool that saves time and makes cooking so much more enjoyable." —Karol D
Get it from Amazon for $21.24.
7. A glass milk carton perfect for frothing milk without droplets of sizzling milk spilling over the side. Display your milk in an ~aesthetic~ way to make your guests think you're actually succeeding at this whole "adulting" thing.
Promising review: "I love glassware, especially borosilicate glass, because it’s delicate and yet strong, it’s thinner and lighter than most glass. This is is definitely a conversation piece, because of its small milk carton shape and it holds a significant amount of cream or milk. It’s perfect for use during brunch, and during coffee or tea dates with friends. To get it cleaned, I use warm water, dish soap, and a small foam brush, than I put it on the dish rack to air dry." —APR63
Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in five styles).
8. A teensy mini waffle maker — the days of cooking huge portions and using up a mountain of dishes are long behind you; now, you can simply pour the ingredients into the griddle and watch it create just the right amount of food you need.
This lil' appliance can even be used to whip up some non-waffle meals like pancakes, hash browns, cornbread, cookie dough, and much more.
Promising review: "At first, I laughed and thought it was too small to really do anything. I was so wrong — it's an amazing little waffle maker!! Can cook almost anything on it! I have cooked eggs, waffles, and French toast." —S PETERSON
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in 20 colors).
9. A set of vinyl coasters for music lovers who want to protect their coffee table from condensation in a rockin' kind of way.

Get a set of six from Amazon for $7.99.
10. A handy dandy condiment fork to keep those pickle juices far, far, far away from your skin. It even comes in a holder you can wrap around the jar of pickles (or olives or peppers). Your late-night cravings just got a whole lot easier to handle!
Check out a TikTok of the condiment fork in action.
Promising review: "Great kitchen item. Forks are great to get pickles out of the jar, but if you have kids/lazy people (lol) you know that dirty hands are going into that jar. 😉 This has really prevented that from happening. It comes with two different rings to fit whatever size jar, a stabber holder, and a stabbing stick." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
11. An attachable Stanley Cup snack bowl perfect for your "girl dinner" nights lounging with the latest edition of the Fourth Wing series. Trying to balance both a large plate of snacks and your oversized Stanley is too much of a hassle for your relaxing night at home — this'll keep everything you need all in one place.
Psst — lots of reviewers say this fits their Stanley cup *and* the cheaper alternative versions of it, like this $29 Simple Modern tumbler.
Promising review: "Easy to clean. Holds a lot of different snacks. Lightweight. Color is beautiful. Fun to use. Good gift idea." —Mc
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in two sizes and five colors).
12. A butter spreader that's like a lipstick tube for your butter (and seriously, how cool is that?!?!) so you don't need to fiddle with a knife when you're tryna butter up some toast, bagels, or pancakes.
Check out a TikTok of the butter spreader in action.
Promising review: "I remember having a butter holder, exactly like this, for corn when I was growing up. It was nice to find the same one. No more having the butter slip off the corn when applying it with a knife. No more tricks like using a fork and having the butter melt through the tines or how about buttering a slice of bread and wrapping it around the corn and spinning it. It’s also great that the butter is covered at one end by the plunger and the other end by a cover. This way, the butter will stay fresh and always ready when you need it." —Allison
Get it from Amazon for $5.99.
13. A pair of glowing lightsaber chopsticks so every meal can feel like a reenactment of The Duel of Fates.
Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord has to say about this: "As you can see from the above GIF, I bought these for myself, and I love them to pieces. TBH, I use them as decor every bit as much as I use them to eat. Sometimes I just keep them in my work area to light them up during the day to feel fancy. They toggle back and forth between a bunch of different colors, like red, blue, yellow, purple, and multicolor, so you can either make them match *or* have a red and blue one together and bring ~balance~ to the Force."
Get it from Amazon for $11.97 (available in two styles).
14. A paw-some cat mug and warmer set for slow sippers who don't feel like getting up every 30 minutes to warm up their hot chocolate for the millionth time. Sit back, relax, and don't fret about remembering to turn off the heat pad before going to sleep — because it'll automatically turn off in eight hours!
Promising review: "This warmer keeps my tea at the perfect temperature and will stay on for eight hours. The cup is very cute. I have used a different cup on it and it worked well too. The only thing that I would change is the shape of the cup, it is skinny at the top. It would be easier to clean if it wasn't small at the top, but I like it anyway!" —Edsmom 1
Get it from Amazon for $28.98+ (available in eight styles).
15. A Scrub Daddy sponge holder so your favorite smiley sponge dries faster, stays cleaner, and no longer needs to reside in the corner of your sink.
Storage Theory is a small business that specializes in unique storage solutions for every room in your home.
Promising review: "Finally a nice place to keep my Scrub Daddy. Holds great on the side of the sink. The suction power is strong for its size, and it rotates with ease. This is a good holder for the price." —Luis peralez
Psst — you can get a Scrub Daddy sponge here on Amazon! They are extremely beloved by TikTokers because they're mildew-resistant, dual-sided with different scrubbing textures, and designed with a smile that lets you more easily clean utensils.
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.

Promising review: "Most adorable spoon holder ever! I have a griddle in the middle of my stove, needed a holder that wasn't my counter. This is super cute, easy to clean, and unique!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in two colors and in a two-pack).
17. A mini donut maker perfect for anyone with a bit of a sweet tooth — driving to Dunkin' for your morning fix is a thing of the past!
The donuts cook within minutes, have an auto shutoff to stop them from overheating, and come with a recipe book that even includes gluten-free and Paleo-friendly options. Bonus? You don't even need to figure out how to make donuts — this machine will take store bought brownie, muffin, and cake mix just fine.
Promising review: "I cannot say enough about the Dash Mini Donut Maker. It is so much fun to use and make donuts at home. Rather than going to the local chain donut restaurant, you can make your own specialty donuts at home. It is very easy to use and cleans up quickly. My children love to decorate the donuts after they are cooked. It's a fun family activity and the donuts taste great! Also, it comes with a neat design and stands out among my other boring looking kitchen cooking appliances. If you like donuts, this product is for you." —JoshH
Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in two styles).
18. A lil' mushroom fridge deodorizer to combat even the stinkiest of fridge odors (because you may or may not have thrown out that expired milk quite on time). Just fill it up with baking soda and place it into the fridge to vanish the lingering smells.
19. A daisy-shaped dish brush so adorable you'll basically feel like a Disney princess as you clean the kitchen. You'll happily whistle and sing while you scrub, scrub, scrub-a-dub-dub away.
This scrubber even comes with a vase-shaped holder!
Check out a TikTok of the flower scrubber in action.
Promising review: "Love having this on my kitchen sink. It’s happy and cute and makes me happy. One leaf did twist off after a few weeks of use but it’s still cute and I could’ve been more careful holding it. Not a super stiff brush but works well for most hand washing and quick rinses. Brush rinses well and food doesn’t get caught in it. I was happy to find it has a hidden scraper edge on top of the brush. Will def buy again when this one gets gross since it brings so much tiny joy into my kitchen." —Hannah Jo Wilson
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (comes in two colors).
20. An egg yolk separator that is designed to ease the frustration of baking and be the saving grace of picky eaters everywhere. (PERK: It's super cute and a definite conversation starter.)
Check out a TikTok of the egg separator in action.
Promising review: "This thing is a time and egg saver. We own a bed and breakfast hotel and a number of our menu items and baked goods of our require separating eggs. This little frog gets the job done efficiently and prevents the waste that happens when the yolk breaks. Plus, it's just plain fun to use in the morning. Wish it were a but easier to clean, but otherwise, a great purchase." —SR
Get it from Amazon for $13.90 (available in three designs).
21. A set of soap dispensers and a fast-drying sink stone caddy so your kitchen area doesn't become a soggy mess of puddles and suds. You can prop up your sponges and bottles on this and watch as it magically soaks up all the liquid in two minutes flat! The best part is the amount of compliments these aesthetically pleasing bottles are sure to garner from all your friends.
This set includes two glass bottles, two silicone bottom anti-slip pads, a dish brush, a brush holder, and a quick-drying diatomaceous earth tray.
Promising review: "Love this dispenser and brush combo! It came neatly and securely packaged. Good quality materials, and the seller even provided an extra set of labels in white. Really elevated the look of my counter by the sink, and you can't beat the price." —Edward Battersby
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in seven colors).
22. A "Cork Pop," because trying to open a bottle of wine with your bare hands is a hazard to both you and everyone else standing in a 20-foot radius. This'll make getting your nightly glass of wine easier than ever as it uses pressurized air to pop off the cork in one easy motion after you drive a needle through it. This will be the belle of your next book club meeting.
23. A cleverly designed banana slicer to help create those picture-perfect breakfasts and jump-start your morning — and your Instagram feed. This will serve up perfectly portioned slices you can toss into your oatmeal, cereal, yogurt bowls, or any other aesthetic breakfast with a banana twist. Curious George would surely approve.
24. A set of nifty hamburger holders that hug your burgers because you're tired of having to minimize how much Chick-fil-A sauce you lather onto your patties. Toss just about every condiment known to mankind onto your patty without fear of it dripping onto your clothes. Your meals are now saved!
Promising review: "This is a fantastic invention!!! No more dumping everything from your hamburger into your lap! It all stays in the burger and you stay clean!! It came with four, so my husband put two in the car, and we kept two in the house!! I'm going to give these to our kids and grandkids for Christmas!!" —Roxanne Fulton
Get a set of four from Amazon for $9.99 (available in five color options).
25. A set of giant fruit-shaped sponges because your kitchen deserves a pop of personality too. They're soft, they're large (perfect for those big pots and pans), they're absorbent, and they add a quirky lil' touch to your sink.
Promising review: "I wanted nice sponges that could be used in a guest suite. Most people stay a week at the most, so I was not as concerned about durability as visual appeal. These sponges fit the bill perfectly. They are relatively sturdy, enough so that I typically use the sponge, after my guest leaves, to clean up the suite, and it holds up to that and then some. And they don't have a rough scrubbing side, so I don't worry that my pans/pots will get scratched up." —Mad Hen
Get a set of four from Amazon for $6.99.
26. A silly cow-themed cheese holder to store and display your cheese slices in the most a-mooo-zing way.
Each container holds 24 slices of cheese.
Promising review: "I had an old Kraft cheese container from decades ago that finally broke and I didn't think I would be able to find a replacement, but this is even better! My kids named it Daisy immediately. It is cute to have in the fridge or even bring out to the dinner table. Great quality and should last a long time." —Karen
Get it from Amazon for $11.88.
27. An unofficial Disney Parks cookbook because you won't need to book a reservation at Be Our Guest in Magic Kingdom to finally try The Grey Stuff — hint hint, it's delicious.

Promising review: "Beautiful hardcover cookbook with so many yummy Disney recipes from the parks! There is lots of Disney foodie history in it, plus recipes that look easy to follow with high-quality ingredients. There are fun maps of each of the parks inside where the food is located from, which makes it fun. As an avid Disney fan I have never seen a cookbook like this." —Nicole
