This little gadget sits inside your tub’s drain and collects hair around it to prevent clogs. It fits drains that are 1.25 to 2 inches wide. The TubShroom is made from polished stainless steel, which prevents it from rusting over time. It comes with a plug that acts as a stopper for baths.

Brighten your smile at home with this kit with teeth whitening strips and a handheld light device that helps remove stains. You apply whitening strips to your top and bottom teeth and then place the light in your mouth. Treatments last 60 minutes.

Brita Metro Water Filter Pitcher

4.6-star average rating from 37,181 reviews on Amazon

I relied on Brita’s water filter pitcher for years while living in a college dorm and my current New York City apartment. It doesn’t take up much room in my refrigerator and has a light on its cap that changes color to indicate when I need to change the replaceable filter. The pitcher has a 6-cup capacity.

Amazon Smart Plug

4.7-star average rating from 561,853 reviews at Amazon

When you plug electronics into Amazon’s Smart Plug, you can then control them via its companion app or by using voice commands. For example, I use Amazon’s smart plug to turn lamps on and off in my apartment instead of manually doing so via a wall switch. It has a compact size that also frees up other outlets.

Waterpik Ion

4.3-star average rating from 5,330 reviews on Amazon

The Waterpik Ion, an NBC Select Wellness Award winner, is a water flosser with seven tips and 10 pressure settings. Its removable 20-ounce reservoir holds enough water for 90 seconds of flossing, and it’s rechargeable. A full battery can last up to four weeks, which means you don’t need to leave it plugged in all the time.

Hatch Restore 2 Sunrise Alarm Clock

4.3-star average rating from 1,323 reviews on Amazon

Lowest price ever

I’ve used the Hatch Restore 2, a NBC Select Wellness Award winner, for about a year and it’s revolutionized my sleep. It’s a customizable sunrise alarm clock, noise machine and digital clock. After pairing the device with the Hatch app, you can personalize your rise and rest routines with your choice of sounds and light colors. It also looks nice on nightstands since it’s covered in a linen material and has a minimalist design.

Amazon Echo Spot

Just launched, no ratings yet

Lowest price ever

The Echo Spot is Amazon’s new smart alarm clock that also functions as a Bluetooth speaker. It connects to a companion app, and you can customize its clock face to display additional information, like the weather. The little device, which is equipped with Amazon Alexa, also lets you control compatible smart home devices via voice commands.

Ninja Creami Ice Cream Maker

4.5-star average rating from 9,735 reviews on Amazon

The Ninja Creami is one of the best ice cream makers I’ve tested. It has seven programs, including ice cream, sorbet, smoothie bowl and gelato. The appliance also has a setting that evenly disperses mix-ins, like sprinkles and chocolate chips, throughout your frozen treat. The Ninja Creami comes with one pint and a cover, but I recommend buying extras so you always have one available.

The shampoo comes in a pack of four, so you can use one now and save the rest for later, or split bottles between members of your household.

Gilette Venus Mini Facial Hair Remover

4.2-star average rating from 734 reviews on Amazon

Keep this mini facial hair remover at home for quick touchups, or throw it in your toiletry bag so you can use it while traveling. The battery-powered tool has a light to help you find hairs and a protective foil over the rotating blades to prevent it from tugging on skin. It also comes with a brush so you can clean off hair after each use.
