Great value product, definitely compares to more pricey products and works just as well." — Arose97 Price : $14 (available in three finishes) 4. A Nodpod to help you actually get your doctor-recommended eight hours of sleep.
Working by the same principle as a weighted blanket, the Nodpod activates pressure points around your eyes that help relieve stress and get you relaxed enough to get some shut-eye. Promising review: "Toddler mom and night shift RN, and I love this mask. It puts me to sleep in under five minutes every time, no matter if I’m waking up at 1 p.
m. or 3 a.m.
I’m a side sleeper, and it’s worked so well for me! A little FYI: It does say on the packaging that the goal is to get you to sleep/back to sleep, not stay on your head all night, so for anyone who wants it on 24/7, this isn’t the mask for you. For any type of sleep, I find myself wanting it and being excited to lie down, knowing I’m not going to toss and turn for 30 minutes until I fall asleep! It is on the pricier side, but I would still definitely recommend it!!!!" — TiredMama Price: $34 (available in two colors) 5.

This vac has movable pod and nozzle attachments that allow its suction power to travel anywhere, even your narrowest and most weirdly shaped spaces. Promising reviews : "Love this vacuum! You can easily adjust the strength of the suction with a turn of a knob at the top by the handle, which is so convenient! The canister is easy to empty and keep clean. You can also easily separate the top hose to reach cobwebs or get in small areas.
Great choice for a house with carpet!" — WiscoMom "When we moved it was perfect to transport. The vacuum comes apart in three parts, and carrying it down three flights was a breeze. The detachable hose and 'bag' is AMAZING for going up and down the stairs without lugging the whole thing.
My whole floor is laminate and I don’t have to worry about the back pain of sweeping when I can just run this vacuum through the house. Not to mention, GOODBYE PET HAIR!! It starts off a little heavy but you get used to it." — Ben3 Price : $159.

My dog sleeps on her own blanket at the bottom of my bed where sometimes she just may wander off to lay by my side when I watch TV. She's allowed :) Anyway, every single day, I roll the top of my bed with these until it's perfectly hair-free.
Then, when we go out for whatever, I keep one in the car and roll myself when I get out with her! Best invention ever!!" — GFMc Price: $6.79 14. A floral storage bench so you can store your random junk *and* give your room an amazing pop of maximalist design.

I love that you can set the alarm to the forest setting — getting woken up by chirping frogs is better than a loud beep!" — CraftyNikki "Everyone complaining of the bright white light: you can dim it. It has several brightness options and you can even turn the light off and then adjust the brightness of the numbers. This thing is amazing.
I got it for my five-year-old so she can better understand bedtime, and we set the alarm so she can be up for breakfast. If the light is too bright, dim it or turn it down." — Tealmom Price: $25 17.
A woven lidded laundry hamper , so you can finally kiss that janky pop-up mesh basket thingy goodbye.

A wood and silicone mini kitchen set so you can actually have everything you need to cook, instead of just what whatever your last three roommates left behind. Promising review: "I'll admit, I chose to get this set because it was so cute, but I'm pleasantly surprised by how often I use it! I enjoy baking, and the brush, spatulas, and whisk are perfect for smaller baking projects. They feel very sturdy (I've used these to make cakes, so I can't say how they hold up to denser mixes such as cookie dough) and are easy to clean! The tongs only open up to a certain width, so I haven't found much use for that one yet, but the other items in the set are great.
