Problem-Solving Products for Living Rooms

You'll Wonder How You Ever Lived Without These Handy Touch-Up Tools

Pet Fur and Lint Remover Brush

PROBLEM : Your sofa looks like a dog bed. SOLUTION : A pet hair collector that's the size of a lint roller without the sticky sheets. Simply glide this handheld wand (because it's that magical) over a pillow, chair cushion, car seat or piece of clothing while the soft bristles do the dirty work. When you're done, simply remove the base to dispose of trapped hair.

A Game-Changing Lint and Pet Hair Remover

Problem solvers for the kitchen.

Reusable Silicone Food Savers

PROBLEM : You're tired of wasting leftover produce. SOLUTION : Preserve the freshness of leftover fruits and vegetables with silicone food savers. Push the leftover food into the silicone cap, and save it in your fridge until you need it again. The food savers create a seal to keep things fresh and prevent exposure to circulating air.

Clip-on Silicone Strainer

PROBLEM: You're tight on kitchen storage and prep space. SOLUTION: Made of silicone, this clip-on collapsible colander attaches to any pot or pan so you can easily strain out pasta water, sauces and more. It takes up a lot less space than a large colander bowl and helps you dirty fewer pots.

Easy-Grip Jar Opener

PROBLEM: That hot sauce lid's not coming off anytime soon. SOLUTION: In swoops the easy-grip jar opener that fits lids or caps of any size. The patented design is perfect for kids or those with limited mobility. Just grip, twist and enjoy.

Over-the-Sink Drying Rack

PROBLEM: Your dish rack is taking up all the space in your kitchen. SOLUTION: Try this silicone-coated dish rack: It folds up easily so it virtually takes up no space in your kitchen, and it has steel insides to securely hold anything from a set of glasses to your heaviest pan right above the sink to dry with ease. It can also be used as a trivet, a colander or a cooling rack because it's heat-resistant.

Stainless-Steel Odor Absorber

PROBLEM : Your hands smell like onion. SOLUTION : Washing your hands with soap and water doesn't remove the smell of garlic and onion after a chopping spree. To remove unwanted scents from your hands, simply rub the bar between your hands like traditional soap under water for 30 seconds. Since the Rub-A-Way Bar is made from stainless steel, you'll never need to replace it like you would a standard bar of soap.

Flex Pot Clip

PROBLEM: Where's that extra hand in the kitchen when you need one? SOLUTION: The utensil pot clip attaches directly to the pot or pan edge and holds utensils in place while you're cooking. The flexible opening is designed to fit a variety of kitchen-tool shapes, and the silicone and stainless-steel materials are heat-resistant. Now you can keep kitchen tools within easy reach and off the stovetop.

Adjustable Baggy Rack

PROBLEM: Your kitchen counter is a mess after putting food into a storage bag. SOLUTION: This sandwich bag opener gives you hands-free control of your food storage bag. Anything tricky to pour such as soup or sauce can be transferred into the storage bag without messes or spilling. The rack can fit bags up to one gallon in size.

Cast Iron Cleaner

PROBLEM: Your beloved cast iron pan is difficult to clean.

SOLUTION: Wash off the grit AND preserve the flavor with soap-less, detergent-free grit removal. You don’t need to fear your seasoning being stripped off by harsh soap or cleaners. With The Ringer, all you need is warm water and you’re good to go.

For really hard-to-reach spots like the dryer duct and the nooks and crannies around your dryer, use this flexible vacuum hose attachment to suck up any dust and lint.

Wad-Free Bed Sheet Detangler

PROBLEM: Your sheets are always tangling, twisting and balling up in the washer and dryer. SOLUTION: As seen on Shark Tank , Wad-Free for Bed Sheets is a nifty gadget where you can insert the corners of sheets before tossing them in the washer and dryer to prevent the sheets from tangling up. Plus, it helps your sheets dry faster, meaning you save energy by not running your dryer as long.

Pet Hair Removal Tool

PROBLEM: Your clothes (and washer and dryer) are always covered in pet hair. SOLUTION: Just toss one of these reusable FurZappers into your washer or dryer to effectively remove pet hair from your clothes and your pet's bedding.

Sweater Shaver and Cashmere Comb

PROBLEM: A favorite sweater just won't stop pilling.

SOLUTION: These sweater combs come two in a pack: One comb works for any sweater, and the other works for gentle cashmere. Both do the same thing; however, they remove the lint and pilling that makes your beloved favorites look worn. You can even use these on couches or bed sheets.

Sold in set of five — one extra-large, two large, and two medium — these best-selling mesh laundry bags are a must for protecting your bras, lingerie, and other delicates in the wash.

This Windshield Cover That's A Must For Surviving Winter Weather

Anyone who lives in a snowy climate will immediately understand the appeal of this windshield cover . Rather than scraping ice off your windshield in subzero temperatures every morning, simply pull off the weather-proof cover and go.

A Set Of Temporary Buttons To Tweak The Waistband On Your Jeans

When your favorite jeans won't button or are feeling a bit too loose, simply use this kit to add a discreet second button, anywhere up to 1.5 inches away from the original in either direction.

A Set Of Gel Petals To Cushion The Balls Of Your Feet When You're Wearing Heels

Designed to cushion only the balls of your feet, these gel petals from Dr. Scholl's make high heels significantly more comfortable, especially if the balls of your feet usually get sore when you wear them. Unlike full-sized shoe inserts, the petals are fairly small and become completely covered by your feet, so you can use them with strappy sandals without worrying about them showing.

If There Were A Problem-Solving Hall Of Fame, You Would Find These 27 Products There

They really do deserve an award for how great they are at making life easier.

BuzzFeed Staff

1. A pet hair remover  you simply swipe over surfaces covered in hair from your furry bestie. 

Promising review: "Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes, but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired, 20-pound tabby, and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing — he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care; it's THAT good." — Stephanie

Get it from Amazon for $24.99  (clip the $5 off coupon for this price!).

2. A tattoo aftercare cream formulated with fatty-acid and antioxidant-rich ingredients to help moisturize and soothe newly inked skin. 

Mad Rabbit is a small biz that sells clean and natural tattoo skincare products and was featured on season 12 of Shark Tank !

Promising review: "Product was awesome. It rejuvenated a 5-year-old tattoo and made it look like new again. Mad Rabbit absorbed into the skin very easily without being greasy." — Janson Ward

Get it from Amazon for $18.99 (available in two scents). 

3. A producer container doubling as a colander for rinsing your favorite fruits and veggies and a keeper so they stay fresh in your fridge longer than they would in their original packaging.  

These containers are dishwasher-, microwave-, and freezer-safe!

Promising review: "I really wanted to see if this worked so I purchased two packages of strawberries. I washed all the berries and let them dry throughly. I put half in my berry keeper box and the other in the plastic container from the store. My daughter had to ask for help with the new berry keeper; she had difficulty opening it and closing it sometimes. The berry keeper kept strawberries for 15 days, the grocery store container only kept them 6 days. Groceries aren’t cheap and I can use anything to prolong the life of my produce. Washed well in the dishwasher on the top rack . I’ll be purchasing more of these attractive quality boxes . I need one for blueberries and grapes." — Toogreen

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in three colors and various sets). 

4. Peach Slices acne spot dots — simply put one of these little hydrocolloid stickers over a zit, let it sit for a few hours (or overnight!), and then bask in the amazement of the pore-clogging gunk it absorbed when you take it off. 

Peach Slices is a small biz that sells skincare products!

Promising review: "This brand is so affordable and works just the same as the more expensive brands. I go through them so quickly so this is a plus! I’m generally a picker at my zits, but if I can get to one of these dots in time I save my face a lot of irritation and pain . I wear them at night and sometimes during the day, only takes about two to get rid of those pesky whiteheads, sometimes more for a big zit. They really suck everything out ." — Savannah Wilson

Get a pack of 30 from Amazon for $4.99 . 

5. A set of Shoe Slotz space saving units that'll take your collection of shoes from an overwhelming messy pile of who knows what to basically resembling the aisles of a DSW because you'll *gasp* actually be able to see your shoes. 

My colleague Sally Elshorafa swears by this for organizing shoes. Here's what she has to say:

" This product SAVED MY SHOES!  I have an awkward set of built-in shelves in my closet, and it was the only place I wanted to put my shoes. As you can see from the before pic (above), it was a big mess; my shoes were piled on top of each other and getting really dirty.  Traditional shoe caddies or boxes didn't really work because there's not much horizontal space, so I tried the  Shoe Slotz . It fixed the problem perfectly! Because the design smartly stacks one shoe on top of the other, you save 50% of the space you'd normally use to store your shoes." 

Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $32.95 .

6. A Gold Bond Friction Defense stick for swiping over areas prone to chafing and hopefully help stop it in its tracks. There's nothing worse than a day of exploring a city, walking around a Disney park, or vibing at a music festival ruined by that dreadful pain. 

Promising review: "I just used it for five days in 90-degree-plus weather at Bonnaroo music festival in the middle of Tennessee on a farm in June with 100,000 people walking several miles, dancing, and sweating every day. I am happy to report that this product is a lifesaver. My thighs didn't chafe once, and I have big ones! I had to reapply once during the day. I strongly recommend buying this if you have large thighs and need relief from chafing. I couldn't wear dresses or skirts in the heat if I was walking anywhere, and now I live in them because of this stuff! Buy it! It works!" — Issac

Get it from Amazon for $5.96 .

7. A portable carpet and upholstery cleaner that boasts strong spray and suction so cleaning stubborn stains will feel effortless. Messes left behind by pets or small children shouldn't mean permanently ruined carpets, furniture, or car interiors.

Promising review:  "This vacuum is amazing. I first heard of it on TikTok where people were using it to clean their stairs, mattresses, car seats, etc. and from the videos, it already looked amazing. But considering how dirty my dining chair cushions were, I was a little bit apprehensive and skeptical. I purchased the item and used it on my chairs for the first time and the results were SO AMAZING. Best vacuum I've ever used. I even bought a second one!" — Davina

Get it from Amazon for $123 .

8. A fruit and veggie divider to make quick work of cutting up berries, carrot and celery sticks, or any other produce you wanna snack on. Just here to help you save time! 

Promising review: "If you have toddlers, get it — especially if you're on the fence. I needed something for grapes, blueberries, blackberries, and other small fruit and veggies we go through so much. My breakfast was getting cold long before I was done cutting fruit for two toddlers. Most cutters only do one grape or berry, but this one can do several grapes and a small handful of blueberries. We will definitely be getting a lot of use out of it in this house." — Kindle Customer

Get it from Amazon for $9.68 . 

9. A body scrub for buffing away red bumps. Use it one to two times a week for smoother skin — it's like a microdermabrasion treatment at a fraction of the cost and without having to leave the house. 

My colleague  Ciera Velarde loves this stuff, here's what she has to say about it:

"I've had keratosis pilaris since I was a teenager (it's especially bad on my thighs), and after trying dozens of products to treat it with no luck, this magical product is the only thing that's truly worked for me . I usually use this once a week for maintenance, but in the winter if I notice a flare-ups and I get have drier, rougher, bumpier skin, I use this twice a week, and any flare-ups disappear within the week. I scrub it over my thighs and then actually let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing it off. I have notorious sensitive skin, and I've never had an issue with this before. It's truly the best product out there for any fellow KP sufferers out there! "

Get it from Amazon for  $12+  (available in three sizes). 

10. A lightweight  running belt that'll make it easy to bring important items like your phone, keys, headphones, and wallet with you out on your morning workout without having to actually hold them or wear a clunky fanny pack. 

Promising review: "I’m a runner and a big problem in the past has been where to put the phone and other items! I do have another item similar that I can have for my longer runs as it comes with two bottles, but for all my normal runs, this item is the best! After a few seconds, I forget it’s even on! Haha I highly recommend for runners, it’s a must have! It will change your runs forever.  :) There are many pockets and a lot of different ways you can store it. I even tried to grab my bottle from my other one and see if it fits and works with this item, and it worked great! It's very high quality and it looks like it will last a really long time!" — Anjali

Get it from Amazon for $31.89+ (available in sizes XXS–XXL and in 13 colors).

11. A genius  sandwich bread dispenser  reviewers say helps keep loaves of sandwich bread  fresher longer  (think: weeks) because it's time we finally put an end to that annoying moment of discovering green spots a few days after grocery shopping and having to throw away half the loaf. 

Buddeez is a family-owned small biz based in Missouri that sells home goods!

Promising review:  "The Buddeez Sandwich Bread Dispenser is great! It does exactly what it was intended for.  I live alone and I don't quite go through bread often enough before the last quarter section of the loaf starts to go stale.  I was originally looking for something to put a loaf of bread in as a shell for my vacuum sealer, that would keep the bread from getting crushed from the pressure.  This dispenser solved all of my problems.  Thank you!" — DRMcQuaig

Get it from Amazon for   $12.49  (available in two colors).

12. A set of clothing storage bags featuring clear windows because every year without fail, you stow away all of your winter sweaters once spring hits, and then the universe laughs in your face and throws in a random freezing cold day. Now you'll be able to find the exact sweater you want to wear without having to ruffle through every storage container you own.  

Promising review: "Best TikTok find for storage.   These are the best storage bags/containers I have bought. So much so that I reordered and got three more not too long ago. One of them holds all the items from my six-drawer dresser, which included everything from tank tops to heavy sweaters and crewnecks . I also use it to hold my seasonal shoes, extra blankets, and yes, even more clothes! Since reordering, I now have six but I am only currently using four. They are machine washable and good to go in the dryer on low heat. Overall, it is worth the purchase!" — Harley

Get a set of three from Amazon for $19.99+  (available in three colors and various sets). 

13. A reusable  oil-absorbing face roller  that'll be a lifesaver for anyone who tends to get extra oily. Just glide it over your face, it's THAT easy. 

Promising review:  "First off, if you have extremely oily skin, this. is. it. I was so tired of getting blotting powder/wipes. It felt wasteful and always left residue on my face. I saw this on TikTok and NEEDED it. It was backordered but then I got an email saying it was in stock and I was SO excited. Not only is it affordable, but it's washable, which helps you save money and be less wasteful." — Kelsey B.

Get it from Amazon for  $13.40 .

Promising review: "I use this under all my appliances and it works great. It fits under my fridge, freezer, range, washer, and dryer, and then I just vacuum it off and done! I also use it on my wooden blinds — just slant them all down and run this over them and poof — clean. Works great!" — CM

Get it from Amazon for $16.95 .

17. A pair of horizontal glasses to make watching TV, WFH, reading a book, or simply scrolling TikTok and laying down at the same time a neck strain–free experience.

If you enjoy comfort and lazy binge-watching but don't care how ridiculous you look wearing these, then you have found Nirvana. My glasses fit in these just fine.

18. A Shower Cat hair catcher — a simple wall-adhesive solution you need if at any point your shower wall or door has resembled a yuckier version of an abstract painting, except instead of colors, it was just all the hair you shed. 

Shower Cat  is a small business established in 2021 specializing in products to prevent shower clogs. 

Promising review: "I first saw this product on TikTok and I knew immediately that I needed it. I just moved into a new apartment and I didn’t want to be how I used to be, where I’d just let hair go down the drain and plug it eventually, or peel it off of the drain after each shower. It works great but I probably need some practice with it. I currently just floss my hair through it so it will hold them and there are a few stray hairs that don’t stick. I would recommend to anyone who is tired of putting your loose strands of hair on the shower wall." — Cari Schwartzkopf

19. And while we're on the subject of hair shedding in the shower, a pack of disposable shower hair catchers you simply place over your drain so your hair doesn't go down and clog it. Simply peel and toss when it's full and replace with a new one! No snaking needed! 

Promising review: "I saw these on TikTok and bought them when I was visiting family. Tried them out and left a few behind for family and sent a few home with family — everyone is now ordering them and using them. They work great. Each one is on its own plastic shield. Just peel off and center onto your floor drain. I leave mine on for two to three weeks. I'm the only one using my shower, but if it's a shared shower probably wouldn't last that long. It's still a great way to catch hair before going down the drain, because we all know, people say they use the traps but they really don't. A must-have!!" — C. Crocker

20. A bottle/jar opener to make quick work of unsealing sauces, jams, beverages, and so much more. The best part is it goes underneath your cabinets so it won't take up valuable kitchen space AND might even add an element of mystery as your guests watch you effortlessly pop off the tops of jars and bottles. 

Promising review: "I very rarely write reviews, but as a person with arthritis in my hands, this product is a godsend! Installed it under my cabinet, and it opens any jar/container from the smallest (16-ounce plastic soda bottles) to the largest pickle jar I have. One of the best inexpensive purchases I've ever made. Buy it!" — Vicky Reed

21. A magnetic purse hanger because if you're a bag-lover, chances are you're also familiar with the struggle that is going to a restaurant or a public restroom and having no place to put your pocketbook! All you have to do with this is attach the metal hook to your bag and use the magnetic hook against a metal surface to hang your bag!  

Bagnet is a woman-owned small biz that sells magnetic bag holders and phone slings.

Promising review: "This is the best bag holder ever! I was completely blown away, the magnet is SO strong. Works in so many places: in restrooms (try the hinges if the door isn't metal), at restaurants (on tables, chairs, even under the table), at the gym to hold my water bottle and keys so they don't end up on the floor. But my absolute favorite place to use it is on my car! I can attach it to the side of my car while I unlock it without having my hands full and leaving me vulnerable. If you have ever felt nervous trying to fumble with all your stuff while trying to unlock your doors in a dark parking lot, you need this! My only regret is that I didn't know about it sooner. I am going to get one for everyone in my life for Christmas. Any person who carries a bag should have one (or two). Seriously, it's life changing​." — robert rodriguez

22. A water bottle featuring a side pill organizer compartment so you can easily bring your medication on the go (and ensure you have water to wash it down with). 

Promising review: "This water bottle has helped me so much with the convenience of taking my meds at night. I always forget or say I’ll do it later bc I have to grab a drink for the meds. So I have a daily alarm now and my meds and water are right at my bedside. No issues whatsoever. I love that I can stand the bottle or lay it down, it doesn’t spill or leak, and the top doubles as a cup. Worth every penny." — Natalie Hayes

23. A memory foam pillow designed to adjust to your preferred sleeping position because whether you're a back, stomach, or side sleeper, you deserve a comfortable night's rest. 

Promising review: "I hardly ever write reviews but I have to for this. I saw this pillow on TikTok and it got me curious so I immediately came to Amazon. OMG, it’s such a game changer. I’m a side sleeper and this pillow is heaven . It’s some of the most comfortable sleep I have had in ages. I love it so much I bought a second one and have my eye on the body pillow. Obsessed! You need this in your bedroom." — MT

24. An self-cleaning litter box  so your purr-fect bestie's potty break is odor-free, and you don't have to change the litter or scoop 💩 until the tray is full!

Each litter box comes with a pre-portioned package of litter that you pour into the tray. It will start cleaning 20 minutes after it's detected that your cat has left the box. When the tray is full, simply remove it and dispose of it.

Promising review: "I was a little skeptical about paying so much for a litter box but definitely made the best decision. There is literally no smell and the litter lasts for at least 30 days for my cat. Before we got this litter box, we were changing the litter every two days and that was sometimes stretching it out too far to where it smelled throughout part of the house. My cat is 14 and had trouble adjusting to the crystals so I called the helpline and they gave me some tips to get her using it and now we have no trouble what so ever. Would definitely recommend this litter box to anyone!! Easy to put together and comes with your first disposable tray and crystals. " — Aldrich

25. A narrow ice cube tray for making ice that'll actually fit inside your water bottle. Cold water stans rise!!!

Promising review: "These stick ice cubes are fantastic for bottled water! Really like that they have lids = no spilling on the way to the freezer, (or picking up odd tastes inside the freezer). And the ice is easy to remove without much breakage." — Diana H.

Get it from Amazon for $9.99  (available with or without covers). 

26. A handy dandy weeding tool so you can easily pluck up those unsightly plants without having to bend, pull, or kneel. 

Grampa's Weeder is a family-owned small biz that sells tools to make weeding easier!

Promising review: " I saw this tool used on TikTok, so we decided to try it out. It works really well — is not difficult to get to the root of the weed, and is fairly simple to use, as well. We would recommend this tool to anyone who finds it difficult to do the crouching required to pull weeds." — Mary

27. A divided pot great for making two different elements of your meal in the same place OR for cooking different versions of the same food if you happen to be prepping for a picky eater.

Promising review: "I have a picky household so this works perfectly to reduce the amount of pans to clean. Made taco meat and burgers at the same time. Pan was an easy swipe of a sponge to clean. Really pretty pan too." — Amazon Customer
