22 Life Hacks We Swear By After This Year’s Rollercoaster

Review: "My wife and I are constantly asking each other if we fed the dog already. We could ask the dog, but he would lie and say no and trick us into another bowl full of food. I saw this device on Amazon and decided to buy it. It's already been fantastic and we've only been using it for about 5 days. It has a nice magnet that sticks and holds to our stainless refrigerator. It does stick to the sides of the fridge too, but it's not as strong there and it does slide. It holds in place when we're sliding the daily AM/PM toggles. The toggles slide nicely. They don't lock into place but usually hold pretty steady. Sometimes they do glide with a little too much ease, meaning you could accidentally move one out of position, but that hasn't proven to be a concern. Overall, it was cheap enough, it's useful, and as long as you're using it, it will be one less thing you have to worry about. Special note: don't let your dog learn how to manipulate the toggles or they could try to play the "Hey I haven't been fed yet!" card" - Bado

Review: "My shower doors when I moved in my new place was caked with scum I tried vinegar I tried everything and nothing worked. I bought this to clean my tile grout but a little got on the glass door and I was amazed that I wiped the scum off instantly! Here is a Picture one side I cleaned and one side is what it look like caked with scum." - Neen

Review: "I have a lion's mane of hair. Every time I run my fingers through it, brush it, or comb it, I lose hair and you would never know to look at me. Imagine me, detanlging this long, thick mane in the shower and losing what looks like a toddler's head of hair. Every. Time. I. Shampoo. That's a lot of hair down the drain. I try and catch most of it, but inevitably something is going past the drain grate. I resigned to just doing chemical drain treatments on the regular. Enter this little product. So simple. So easy. A little disc of woven mesh to trap those pesky hairs from causing trouble to the plumbing system. Brilliant! Peel and stick. Peel and toss. These are a good value and a no-brainer. There is a sticky ring to the outside and the middle portion allows water to flow through. I marked the back of the cellophane in some of the photos to try to indicate the size of that area." - Debbie M

Review: "This is the greatest toy! Not only does my dog love it, I love it cuz I can’t hear the squeaker! Will definitely buy for him (and me) again." - Casey

Review: "I’ve always had a problem with my glasses slipping down my nose all the time and it got very annoying. So I did some research on the internet and Amazon to see what I could use to fix this issue. Saw that they make wax sticks to put on them but you have to apply it a lot and seemed kinda like an inconvenience. I also found strips to stick on but most reviews said they only lasted a week plus they were pretty expensive. Then I found these and they are amazing! I highly highly recommend them if you have slipping problems takes a bit of wearing to find the perfect spot but I couldn’t be happier with this product especially for only $7 ish dollars." - Noah Ulrich

Review: "I never knew these things existed, and for months and months I slept on sheets that would bunch up and require constant tucking. Not anymore. I can install these and sleep for weeks without bunching. I got these ones for the corners, and a four pack of straight clips and they work perfectly for me." - Kimberly

Review: "This is the second rack that I have bought from this company. My first one was getting old and I threw away the extra parts to it. I shouldn’t have done that. I decided to expand to a larger cupboard and needed to order a new one. Glad I did. It’s made better than the older one I had. I love how I can see all my spices at a glance. There are several comments on their site regarding assembly being difficult. I had no problem with it at all. Put it together in less than 10 minutes. Highly recommend this product." - Amazon Customer

Review: "I have combination skin (usually oily with dry patches) and am forever picking at my pores. My nose especially gets super fun blackheads. NOT ANYMORE! And if anything does pop up, removal is a breeze because my skin is so much healthier and it lifts right out and I can apply some toner or tea tree oil. I also make my husband use it and his blackheads/whiteheads/dry skin on face is noticeably brighter and clearer. I 100% agree with the review that said to rub off a little bit of the top of the product once you open it so that there is salt exposed to help you exfoliate. This was completely an impulse purchase but now it's a staple in my weekly skincare routine. Also, how freaking adorable is this little guy? I think he makes my whole bathroom look cuter." - Andrea

Review: "Warms everything evenly, better than a microwave. I started taking this for lunch at work. So thankful that the day the microwave broke, I was the only one with a warm lunch, for a week too. The only flaw is since I have tendinitis, I struggle with opening the lid when it's hot, but I learned to just lightly place the lid on so it's easy to remove. I get many compliments at work." - Bill O

Review: "I almost gave up! My hair was so damage from bleach and colored, it was bad to the point I can’t even brush them with comb or even with my hand I try many expensive products and didn’t even work. I saw lots of reviews on this and I was like ok why not?! Is only $7. Omg that $7 tho!! This is the best product I have tried." - Gina

Review: "I’m someone who suffers from chronic migraines and headaches. Typically, I get 1-2 migraines and 3-4 headaches a week. I’m in constant pain. It’s to the point that I have had to take daily medicine. I was looking for alternatives as I don’t want to have to “pop pills” every single time I get a headache. I’m also one that if I don’t take medicine right away, the migraine/headache develops to the point where I feel nauseous and can’t even speak at times. Smell is a trigger and for those who are sensitive to smells especially mint, this is no issue at all! I’ve used it a total of 3 times so far and it’s worked every time which is incredible! If I don’t take strong medicine (excedrin or prescribed medicine), nothing works. Im ecstatic and released to have found an more natural alternative." - Jessica

Review: "Wow! I never thought I’d see the shiny inside of my husband’s travel mug again. He uses it for tea almost every day and it was gross! The build up was horrendous. I filled it with hot water, dropped in a tablet, and let it sit for a couple hours. I thought for sure it would take multiple times or a good scrubbing. I was wrong! I dumped out the liquid, rinsed and the majority of the buildup was completely gone. I gave it a quick, easy scrub with dish soap and a bottle brush and it looks brand new. Highly recommend these tablets." - C. Mcpheeters

Review: "I can’t recommend this thing enough. All the awesome reviews are legit. I didn’t realize what I was getting myself into when our family brought home a golden retriever pup. He sheds so much, I truly don’t know how he still has fur. This pet hair remover does an amazing job at removing all the hair that finds it’s was onto our clothes, couch and blankets. I never reach for the sticky lint roller, it just can’t hold up to the ease, thoroughness and speed that this roller offers." - Toniann Cohen

Review: "Summer is here!!!! I love this stuff! It's not oily or greasy. It doesn't have a weird smell. It works great and I have never had a bad reaction to it and I have sensitive skin. I would highly recommend. It makes Summer more enjoyable and comfortable." - melissa skomski

Review: "Always HATED flossing, even was scared of it. I also have 2 dental implants, so it’s very important to floss. This made flossing actually ENJOYABLE and easy to do. Saw someone recommend them online and I had NO idea they even existed. Hello, dentists??? Why aren’t you telling people about this item?! Anyway, I recommend starting out on SOFT mode because this thing is extremely powerful and the other modes were too hard on my gums. Only downfall is I must floss longer than expected because I have to put more water in the back by the time I go to my uppers/lowers (whatever set is next). Have used for a week now and battery has stayed charged up, not needed to charge it yet. Please buy this!!!" - Sav

Review: "I’ve had this for a little over a year and this little thing has been through it all. Through heavy rain, hail, multiple car washes, extreme heat, you name it. This little mirror has held on and been the most useful tool I can have for my car. Easy to adjust and install. Very clear visibility and gives you a great view for blind spots." - Adrian

Review: "This desk was easy to put together, instructions were easy to follow. It's sturdy and looks elegant. I was a little curious to see how the change from sitting to standing would be and it is smooth and quiet. I love that it has 2 memory settings. " - Lillian Hasson

Review: "So happy to have a sturdy extension wand. Fully extended standing on a step stool I was able to reach all the corners on a 20ft ceiling! It worked well in the rest of the house with 10ft ceilings while standing flat on the floor. The cobwebs wiped right off with a damp paper towel. I’m excited to try the micro fiber one on my ceiling fans next. Highly recommend" - A. Ruhl

Review: "This product is great! I sweat a ton in my volleyball shoes, and this spray doesn’t fail to make odors disappear (as long as you follow the directions). I’ve tried other shoe sprays but highly recommend this one (I use it for my shoes, clothes, carpets, among other things). Very pleased :)" - Zach

Review: "I love this compact ball to keep in my purse. It cleans up that debris from the bottom of my purse that I didn't ever know was there, lint, sand, etc. I take it out to clean it under running water and right back in the purse it goes. It works great!! I recommend it." - Jaclyn Dean

Review: "I never thought I would write a review on such a simplistic product or thought it would be so helpful. This product has made it so much easier for our family to identify if its safe to add dishes or not to the dishwasher. Fantastic if you have multiple people in the house." - Steve

Review: "Great and comfortable helmet. I bike everyday and this is a really good helmet. My old one used to slip off and the straps were always coming loose. This one always stays on and love the collapsible feature. Definitely recommend!" - AK
