I always get tons of compliments on these clever things I use all the time at home

This herb keeper is a kitchen must-have for Mic editor, Carolyn Menyes. She says, “I feel like a broken record about this herb saver, but it really, truly works. People are impressed by it not just because it keeps herbs fresh for weeks (or a month) but also because it looks quite sleek in my fridge.” The herb keeper is made from durable BPA-free plastic and glass and features vents to encourage airflow. When it’s time to use some herbs, the ergonomic handle and anchoring ladder make it easy to snip what you want.

Add this reed diffuser set to your space and it’ll give instant luxury spa vibes. Mic editor Mallory Moreno says, “Complete with dried flowers, these diffusers look so upscale and provide a nice refreshing scent for small spaces.” This diffuser is also customizable — just add more reeds for a stronger scent. Plus, you can choose from a ton of soothing fragrance options like linen, a unique blackberry option, and more.

Moreno also loves these unusually shaped fuzzy towels because she says, “I prefer these much more over using hand towels in the bathroom or kitchen. They're cute and functional!” These clever towel balls feature a convenient hanging loop, and the chenille fabric is extra absorbent, so they get the job done quickly. Plus, they take up way less space than a traditional hand towel in your bathroom, and the fluffy fibers will dry between your fingers.

You could keep toiletries in their packaging, but these transparent apothecary jars are such a stylish alternative. Moreno says, “One of my favorite storage hacks for cotton pads, hair ties, and floss picks.” The jars are made from durable, BPA-free plastic and feature a cute bamboo lid. Plus, the jars come with pre-printed and blank labels, so you always know what’s inside. Plus, they look like glass, but you can completely avoid shattered glass in the bathroom.

These rechargeable LED candles are flameless, so there’s no messy wax or smoke to deal with, and they can be used over and over again. Mic editor Lauren Beach says, “I used to have all battery-powered candles, but it felt so wasteful. These are pretty and can be charged via USB.” These flickering rechargeable candles also come in over 10 different glass jar colors, so you can get the perfect look for your space. And the wax is real, so this cozy candle trio will look even more convincing.

Beach also loves these drawer organizers that come in a bunch of different sizes, shapes, and aestehtic colors. “These bins let me create a custom organization system in an awkwardly sized desk drawer,” she says. “They have a surprisingly high-end feel, and friends inevitably mention them when I open the drawer.” They can be stacked on top of one another for extra versatility, so you can store even more things in one drawer (while still keeping it tidy). Plus, the lightweight, crack-resistant plastic is easy to wipe clean in case of spills in your drawer.

These under-cabinet LED light strips are a quick way to give dim spaces an upgrade. Beach says, “I stuck these in a few of our deeper cabinets, and they make such a big difference. They're super easy to install and very bright.” The light strips have a low profile, so they don’t take up a lot of space, and the included adhesive means they can go anywhere — no drills required. Not to mention, their adhesive design is a breeze to pop underneath cabinets and shelves.

Beach loves this rustproof toilet paper holder for keeping bathroom supplies sleek and accessible. “This keeps guests from needing to ask where the extra toilet paper is stored — and it saves space under cabinets,” she says. The holder accommodates up to four rolls of TP wherever you want them. You can hang it over the toilet tank, on a cabinet door, or be mounted on any smooth surface with the included adhesive.

Keep track of your battery supply with this transparent storage container that has room for up to 93 of them. Beach says, “This helped me clean out a drawer and makes it so easy to quickly change out the batteries in items around the house.” The organizer can be stashed in a drawer or mounted on the wall. Plus, the built-in battery tester helps you know which ones still have juice, so this case will always be full of batteries that are ready to go.

This stainless steel sink caddy has a removable drip tray and plenty of space for storing your sponges and soaps. Mic editor Danielle Kraese says, “My kitchen sink area looks and feels so much tidier since I added this caddy. I use it to hold my hand soap and dish soap bottles, and I love that they no longer sit in a perpetual puddle of water.” The slats on the bottom help all of the extra soapy water drip right into the easy-to-wash tray, and it has support on each side to keep your sponges and soap in place.

These motion-activated lights turn on and off automatically, so they conserve battery power while illuminating dim areas. Mic editor Allison Bolt says, “These added the coziest lighting to my kitchen, and everyone thinks they're fancy built-in under cabinet lighting.” They’re super easy to install because you simply stick them under your cabinets with the built-in adhesive. They don’t even have any wires, so you can use them practically anywhere around the house for an impressive glow.

These wool coasters not only protect your tables, but they’re a fun conversation piece as well. Bolt says, “These look super luxe and expensive on my coffee table, and get so many compliments. I've also spilled plenty of coffee on them, and it comes right off.” That’s because this pack is made from water-resistant Merino wool and is easy to wipe clean. They come in a set of five, so you’ll have enough of these soft, absorbent coasters when guests pop in.

Brooms and mops can be awkward to store, but these adhesive gripper hooks keep your cleaning supplies upright and tidy. “My cleaning closet looks professionally organized thanks to these clever little clips,” Bolt says. They come in a set of two and feature a user-friendly sticky adhesive that can hold up to 4 pounds. The adhesive is also cleverly designed to prevent wall damage, so it’s perfect for rentals or anywhere you want to keep clean.

These stick-on cable clips are a simple (and sleek-looking) way to corral cords and wires around the house. Bolt says, “These really are a must-have for creating a tidy desk space while keeping your chargers close by.” They feature an adhesive that works on any flat surface, so you can use them on desks, nightstands, walls, and more. They also come in a variety of configurations to keep one, two, or even four different cords tidy at once.

These expandable spice racks display and organize spice bottles neatly in a drawer, so you always know what you have on hand. Bolt says, “These made my spice drawer look super impressive in just a few minutes.” The angled shelves are made from durable acrylic that’s easy to wipe clean and won’t rust or get gross if you even spill some spices. They’re also expandable to fit your spice drawer but also to fit your unique spice jars.

Whether you’re prepping your coffee for the week want to be a good host, this cold brew maker is sure to impress. Mic editor Amy Biggart says, “I love having cold brew on hand when people stop by, and this is such a convenient way to steep it. I get compliments on it nearly every time someone sees it.” It features a fine mesh filter that keeps grounds separate from the beverage and an airtight lid that locks in freshness. Plus, it has a pitcher-style design, so you can easily serve your cold brew.

This impressively collapsible phone stand’s height and angle can be adjusted to get the ideal viewing angle. It works with a variety of phone sizes, including those with thick cases, and Biggart says, “This folding phone stand is my favorite Amazon product of all time. I use it at home to keep my phone propped up throughout the day and use it on the go a lot, as well.” It also has a nonslip base to keep things stable, and it folds down flat so you can take it anywhere.

If you’re looking for the perfect writing instrument, this editor-fave Muji gel pen might be it. “These gel pens are so great, and I've had some stolen from me by people over at my house borrowing them,” Biggart says. They really stand out because their smooth, water-based formula is designed to resist leaks and smudging while you write. Plus, the lightweight body won’t tire out your hand.

This extra-large water bottle reminds you when it’s time to hydrate. This BPA-free version has time markers on the side, so you can keep track of hydration. “It's silly, but I use a gallon water bottle all the time to make sure I'm hydrated,” Biggart says. “Every time anyone sees it (and it's hard to miss), they compliment it. I've convinced a few people to buy it, too.” This bottle also comes with two interchangeable leak-proof lids to make sipping easy and mess-free, whether you prefer a classic spout or a sipping straw.

This versatile laptop case can protect your computer while also serving as a stand when you’re ready to type. It features two adjustable angles and is made of a durable material to guard against scratches. You also get a clever little storage pocket for all of your work accessories. Biggart says, “I'm a dedicated laptop user and hate having second monitors and keyboards, so this computer case serves as my laptop stand 24/7. I love having it, and I get questions about it all the time.”

This travel mug is a serious upgrade with its porcelain design, and Mic editor Karen Belz highly recommends it. It holds up to 16 ounces, and you can pop it in the microwave, dishwasher, and freezer, so it will look chic (but also be practical after a morning on the go). “I feel like the coolest mom at the bus stop, since I finally have a travel mug (four, actually, since I chose the four-pack option) that's easy to hold, colorful, big enough, and actually dishwasher-safe, unlike a lot of other mugs out there,” she says.

This condiment fork is a clever alternative to sticking your fingers in a jar of pickles or olives. Belz says, “What a clever way to avoid touching pickle brine! I love how easily this wraps around a jar, and use mine often with olives.” The fork can be stowed in the included caddy that sits around the rim of the jar. Plus, it’s all dishwasher-safe, so you can wash it with your other dishes whenever you finish a pickle jar.

These editor-chosen bed pillows feature supportive gussets on the side and a cooling design that’s oh-so-impressive for you (and house guests). Belz says, “Not only do I use these incredibly cozy pillows at night, but I've put them in our guest room as well. They really are hotel-quality, and I love the stripes on the side to be able to identify them if they stray.” These pillows are also extra great for impressing guests because they’re designed to support all types of sleepers (including side, stomach, and back).

Mic editor Cassandra Seale loves these meal-sized ceramic bowls. She says, “These are unique-looking, and big enough for a properly sized serving of cereal or ramen with all the fixings.” The bowls have a chic geometric design that’s sure to impress guests and hold up to 60 ounces, so they’re perfect for any type of food. Plus, they can go in both the microwave and the dishwasher after dinner parties.

This leakproof car trash can gives you a place to toss empty wrappers and other debris. “Your car is your house on wheels, and this keeps things tidy,” Seale says. The bin comes with disposable liners that make cleanup easy and an adjustable strap for a secure attachment in your car. Plus, the clever top keeps all the trash securely inside, but also makes it easy to toss in empty coffee shop cups and other trash. Seale adds, “A passenger also said it looks “fancy.” ”

Seale also highly recommends grabbing a good (and sleek-looking) fan to keep air circulating or boost your air conditioner with this portable fan. It’s really thin, so it won’t take up a ton of space and the adjustable stand also works as a hanging hook around the house. Plus, it packs in three speed options onto its slim and chic design.

Whether you want to cut down on toilet paper usage or just feel fresh, a bidet attachment is a quick-to-install option. Seale says, “Once anyone experiences bidet life, it feels like a real backslide to go back to a bare toilet.” This attachment works with almost any type of toilet and doesn’t require electricity or any special tools. Plus, the bidet has an adjustable nozzle that helps you get the ideal water angle and pressure for your bum.

This rolling, self-dispensing can bin is an easy way to keep your fridge looking tidy. The dispenser holds nine standard cans and multiple bins can be stacked on top of each other for even more storage options. Seale says, “You feel like a real professional adult serving someone a drink from a can dispenser. Also makes the fridge look so organized.” Plus, the shatter-resistant plastic is super easy to keep clean in case soda or sparkling water spills.

This three-tiered storage cart is perfect for maximizing small spaces because of it’s shocking slip shape. It has wheels that rotate 360 degrees and removable shelves for maximum storage versatility. Plus, you even get three different types of hook options to clip to it, so you can hang up all kinds of items. Mic editor Anna Anderson says, “I have this tucked away in the kitchen between my fridge and the wall and the extra storage (sans clutter) is such an upgrade.”

Organize food wraps and foils with this clever dispenser that makes it easy to slice perfectly sized sheets for baking. Anderson says, “This is such a great way to prevent jammed drawers caused by clunky cardboard boxes.” The organizer features three spots for rolls of things like aluminum foil, plastic wrap, and parchment paper as well as adjustable dividers so you can get the perfect fit. The base is designed to cradle the rolls and keep them in place, and the top comes completely off to make refilling a breeze.

Add space to any room with this polished metal rack that can fit anywhere. The rack has a user-friendly installation (just hang it over the top of the door without any adhesive necessary), and it’s ideal for keeping towels, extra coats, or accessories like hats off the floor. Anderson says, “It's a simple thing, but these over-door hooks are perfect for storing towels when guests come to stay.”

These BPA-free containers are a budget-friendly way to get your pantry staples in order because they even come with labels and a marker for easy organizing. Their stackable plastic design also features a securely locking lid, so you can keep things fresh. Anderson says, “These are so much more convenient than bags of flour and sugar that tend to spill their contents.” And when it’s time to clean them out, the containers can go right in the dishwasher.

These viral scrubbing sponges have a dual-sided design that’s an editor-vetted game-changer for dishes. The odor- and stain-resistant material can remove even crusted-on food but is gentle enough that it won’t scratch surfaces. The scrubbing material becomes soft and pliable in hot water, but firm in cold water, so there’s plenty of versatility. Anderson says, “For some reason, these are so much easier to handle than standard sponges (I no longer break wine glasses while doing the dishes!) and they never smell funky.”

Anderson says, “It turns out that under the bed is the perfect place to store linens and out-of-season clothes,” and she recommends grabbing these slim under-bed storage boxes for the job. They have a zipper that fully opens and a clear cover so you can see what’s inside. And the reinforced handle means you can tug and slide the bins around without worrying about durability.

This timeless corkscrew is a must-have because it features an ergonomic wooden handle and a user-friendly design that makes removing corks simple. Anderson says, “If you have trouble opening bottles of wine, it's probably because you're not using a double-hinge corkscrew. This is what servers use, and it gives you proper leverage without the struggle.” Not only does it have the clever double-hinge design, but it also comes with a built-in foil cutter to help you open that bottle ASAP.

Anderson loves that this paper towel holder doesn’t require tools or damage to the wall. She says, “This magnetic paper towel holder keeps the roll off the counter and out of the way — no drilling required.” The magnetic holder is adjustable, so it can accommodate different types of paper towel rolls, and the rubber-coated magnets won’t scratch or scuff surfaces.

These chic stackable shelves can keep items accessible and help you maximize cupboard space. They’re made from durable wood and metal, and each one can hold up to 33 pounds of dishes or cleaning supplies. Anderson says, “It's actually my parents who have these — but I have complimented them because their cabinets are so organized and look so nice now!” Beyond looking good, the shelves are super versatile — you can stack them, nest them, arrange them in an L-shape, or use them separately.

Who knew deodorizers could be stylish? Allison Bolt loves this stainless steel option. She says, “This is bound to get you compliments anytime anyone opens your fridge, sees this sleek device, and smells zero gross food smells (it even impressively lasts for 10 years).” The deodorizer doesn’t require electricity, batteries, or filters, so it’s super low maintenance and it’s compact enough to tuck into small spaces. This impressively long-lasting design doesn’t even require baking soda, and you can even use it in other places around the house (like in small, musty closets).

This outlet concealer features a 3-foot extension cord with three USB ports so you can easily tuck cords and wires out of sight. The device plugs into any standard outlet to make it blend into your wall, and then you can attach the extension cord to the wall with the included clips. Bolt says, “This clever concealer is an easy way to make your kitchen counters look sleek and wire-free or to hide cords behind furniture.”

This outlet extender has a ton of built-in features like a surge protector and night-light, and its angled design can accommodate even the chunkiest charging blocks. The extender has five AC sockets and four USB slots, so there’s an option for every device. Bolt says, “Not only will this outlet extender give you more charging spots, but it also comes with a built-in night-light that's so cozy.”

These durable and waterproof liners can make it an absolute breeze to keep your fridge clean and tidy between grocery runs. Whether or not you’ve recently given it a deep scrub, Bolt says, “These will make your fridge look impressively perfectly clean — at all times.” The liners are made of nontoxic material that you can simply pull out and wash off whenever they get grimy or spilled on. And they can be cut to size for the perfect fit for your fridge.

Bolt says, “This bath mat is designed to dry super quickly, so it will always look clean and dry when guests come over.” The nonslip mat also has a rubber backing so it stays firmly in place even when wet (AKA — it will stay perfectly straight and in place all the time). It also comes in over 10 colors to elevate your bathroom, is a breeze to wash to keep it fresh, and dries in under one second.

Ditch the jumble of cardboard boxes and use this drawer organizer to corral your storage bags. The organizer has slots for four different types of bags, and it comes with pre-printed labels so you always know the difference between a sandwich baggie and a quart-sized bag. Bolt says, “If anyone opens your kitchen drawer to find this tidy bag organizer, they will immediately be impressed with how organized you are.”

These colorful cord wraps are a simple (and easy-to-reuse) way to keep cables and wires tidy. Bolt says, “You won't be scared to open your drawer full of extra chargers in front of house guests if you grab this budget-friendly pack of reusable cable wraps.” The wraps feature a reusable hook-and-loop closure, so they won’t leave behind any gunky residue on your chargers. The pack also has different colors to color code chargers, spare HDMI cords, and more.

Bolt also loves this night-light because its vintage-style Edison design is sure to impress your house guests way more than a boring white night-light. It looks like a vintage bulb, leaves plenty of room to plug in other devices next to it, and you can even plug it in upside down — depending on your style preference.
