A fragrance that smells like marshmallows, a stationary bike that functions as a desk, a cozy crewneck for rocking your astrological big three, and more splurge-worthy items you'll get tons of use out of.

I love trying out new fragrances and am a sucker for anything marshmallow — flavor, scent, etc. I find it all delicious! For starters, this Kayali spray bottle is so pretty. I love having this lovely little pink bottle shown off on my rotating bathroom organizer. Scent-wise, it is DEF on the sweet side. If you don't love super sweet smells, this may not be for you; but I adore it. It's kinda exactly what you'd expect a marshmallow-scented fragrance to smell like. 

Get it from Sephora for $105+ (available in a larger size, as well as two mini sizes).

Promising review: "This Lodge Dutch oven is a real workhorse in the kitchen. The vibrant color is a nice touch, and it's surprisingly lightweight for cast iron. I've used it for everything from braising beef to baking bread, and it always delivers delicious results. The enamel coating makes cleanup a breeze, and I love that I can go straight from stovetop to oven without any fuss. Highly recommend!" —Tony Rosati

Get it from Amazon for $79.90+ (available in 18 colors).

Promising reviews: "Buy this chair. I’ve bought so many office chairs over the years. The classic Goldilocks story — this one’s too bulky, this one’s too flimsy, that one has too much hard plastic…yada yada. I think this one might be it. Really comfortable, solid build, attractive, but the best feature is the wide seat. I can crisscross my legs easily to relieve the pressure in my hips, which is life-changing if you’re chained to your desk sitting in meetings all day." —Larissa Harrison

Get it from Amazon for $101.52+ (available with or without wheels, in two colors, and in a furry fabric).

Promising review: "I got to sit for an hour this morning before work, with my dog on my lap, uninterrupted because I didn't have to warm my coffee every 20 minutes!! I’ve wanted a cup like this for a long time, but have heard they don’t really work, BUT THIS ONE DOES!! Worth every penny. ☕️❤️ Now back to my still-hot coffee." —M. Bretz 

Get it from Amazon for $112.46+ (available in two sizes and four colors).

I'm no stranger to the Ugg brand — I've been wearing Ugg boots and slippers since I was in middle school, and a pair of Ugg boots I've had since I was 15 are still very wearable to this day at age 31. I've had my sights on the Tasman II slippers for some time, and Ugg was kind enough to send me a pair at the end of the summer, just in time for fall — I am OBSESSED. To me, these slippers are basically a crossover between their slippers (which I have a pair of to just wear around the house) and an ankle boot in the sense that they have just enough support to comfortably wear out in public. I have the chestnut color and adore them, and will likely splurge on the sand color soon, too, because they're just so perfect.

Get them from Amazon for $124.95 (available in women's sizes 5–12 and 10 colors)

Promising review: "This is the perfect record player for starting out. Good size, reasonable price, and no issues so far one year in. The volume is clear and we haven’t had any problems with skipping." —Bridget

Pick Up Bricks is a family-run small business helping families avoid the excruciating pain of stepping on Legos. They were featured on Shark Tank where they made a deal with both Lori and Mark!

Promising review: "This works exactly as it’s supposed to. Instead of having to comb through my son’s carpet for each Lego piece, a quick vacuum gets it done quickly and separates out the dirt and dog hair. Looooove it!" —Beth

Get it from Amazon for $67.99+ (available in 14 colors).

The Ninja Creami has been on my personal wish list for a while, so I was STOKED when the brand was kind enough to send me the Ninja Swirl last month. Let me tell you, this thing is INCREDIBLE. I'm not sure what kind of wizardry is behind this thing, but it can take the simple bases I make out of milk and instant pudding, and transforms them into deliciously creamy ice cream treats. I LOVE the mix-in option (so far, Oreos are my favorite for making homemade cookies and cream pints) and the soft serve function is AWESOME. I keep a pack of cake cones in my pantry and I can enjoy delicious soft serve whenever I crave it (without having to leave the house)!!! I haven't gotten around to trying nearly all of the functions yet, but I am having the most fun with this machine and truly can't recommend it enough.

This compact, rolling desk bike is also height adjustable, so you can get your perfect fit with the tray, and has "whisper quiet" pedaling, eight resistance levels, and a way to track your mileage, rpm, and other stats. Psst — you can watch the viral desk bike TikTok featuring it for more insight on how it works. It's been liked over 2.5 million times!

Promising review: "WORTH EVERY PENNY! I've had this bike since October 2024, and honestly, it has been a game-changer. Between work and going back to school online full-time, it's been difficult for me to get low-impact cardio in since getting injured last year. I got this bike based on another reviewer's video of a woman being able to craft while using it, and I am so glad I did!The desk area itself is a great size, and I'm able to fit a laptop, keyboard, and mouse, and a small notebook, and sometimes I'll have my coffee up there as well. The seat is comfortable, but if you don't regularly ride a bike, your rear will be sore if you use it for extended periods of time. However, the effects do subside with consistent use. I love how the bike has wheels, which makes it easy to move, and it's not too heavy (I was able to assemble it by myself in less than half an hour). It pedals smoothly, and most importantly, it is QUIET! I added a few foam titles underneath to prevent the wheels from indenting the carpet, but even without them, this bike is SUPER QUIET. I live in an older apartment complex on the top floor, and I've asked my downstairs neighbors about any noise, and they said they only hear occasional footsteps and my cats wrestling." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Used to use the standard Slip silk mask religiously. After having lash extensions, I struggled to find a silk eye mask that fit my lashes. So happy to have this back in my life, and it fits perfectly! So cozy and helps me stay asleep." —caitTHEgreat

Get it from Nordstrom for $75 (available in four colors).

Promising review: "Absolutely LOVE this unique jewelry organizer. Not only did it ship and arrive very quickly, but it also is sturdy, beautiful and 100% worth every penny. It looks like a piece of artwork hanging on my wall. I’m so beyond pleased!" —Kayla Sewell

Get it from FigureGrain on Etsy for $89+ (available with gold or silver hardware and with one or two trays). 

Promising review: "Like you, when I first came across this, I was hesitant because of the price. It's a bit steep, I thought to myself. But then, after another night of bathtime with two towels on the ground to soak up the water my child had splashed all over, I took the plunge and bought it. And definitely worth it a million times over. My child LOVES the extra space for toys and I love the water staying in the tub. I definitely and highly suggest buying it. You won't be disappointed! Or your child!!" —Brianna

Get it from Amazon for $59.95 (available in four colors and a smaller size).

St. Andrews Embroidery is a small biz based in Michigan that sells lovely embroidered clothing!  

Promising review: "This crewneck turned out amazing! The creator makes it so easy to customize in the ordering process. It takes a little while for it to be shipped but considering it’s custom-embroidery, it’s worth the wait. The material of the sweatshirt is soft and comfortable, the stitching is very high quality!" —Alexandra Seaquist

Get the Anova app here.

Promising reviews: "For us lazy cookers! I use this at least three times a week. Great so you don’t have to stand in the kitchen waiting for your food." —Craig R Payne III

"Since I started cooking sous vide, my family says my cooking has gone to a new level. I started with the original Anova and just recently picked up this Nano. The Nano is awesome because it's much smaller compared to the first Anova, making it easier to store in a drawer. It sounds trivial, but by making it easier to grab, I'm more likely to use it compared to the Anova, which I kept in a special case in the pantry. Setup is so much quicker, and I can cook a beef roast for 30 hours without adding ANY water. If you're just starting out in sous vide, I recommend this cooker." —Jeff Nichols

Each cleaner comes with a trial size of Bissell's Spot & Stain Formula, which is also available on Amazon for $12.99! 

Promising review: "This has saved me so many times. I use it mostly for my carpet and the couch. I have a cat and dog with an almost-white couch, so this has been SUPER helpful. It has yet to fail me." —Amazon Customer

Poplight is a queer-owned small business that was featured on Shark Tank!

Promising review: "I love Poplight because it's a low-stakes solution. You don't need any tools or expertise to install it and you don't have to worry about getting the placement perfect either. Poplight comes in so many fun colors, and its minimalist design complements nearly any existing lighting fixtures in the same space. There's nothing else like it, and it's the only quick lighting fix of its kind. Also, the branding is great, which has nothing to do with the product really but feels like it's worth mentioning." —Tess

Get it from Poplight for $99 (available in eight colors).

Promising review: "This is such a great Kindle! It’s lightweight, the perfect size for going in a purse or bag, and the matcha is SUCH a great color. I already have a Paperwhite SE that I love, so I decided to get this Kindle for travel purposes. The battery life isn’t as great as my Paperwhite, but it still lasts me a while with daily reading! It fits perfectly in my hands and makes reading very comfortable. The only thing it is missing is the warm light option, but that is not a deal breaker for me. If you are looking for a lightweight and comfortable Kindle, this is the one for you." —Christine Heath

Get it from Amazon for $109.99+ (available in two colors, with or without Kindle Unlimited, and with or without ad-supported lock screens).

The bed comes with a matching pillow and blanket. It's even got side pockets for storing books, snacks, remotes, etc.

Promising review: "I’ve had this for a few weeks now, and it’s pretty wonderful. I’m a 6-foot-tall woman, and I can say it’s long enough, and the dogs love it too. I was worried it would shed a lot with the fuzzy strings, but it does not. Extra bonus: The blanket is the neatest thing, with ultra-soft fibers, long and fuzzy on one side and super short on the other. If you need a comfy little nook, get this." —S. Wilson

Get it from Amazon for $99.99 (available in 17 colors).

BuzzFeed editor Jenae Sitzes has had her standing desk for years!: "I have a FlexiSpot electric standing desk at home (this one, specifically) and love it — it's a great brand, and mine hasn't given me any issues over the past few years." 

Promising review: "For 20 years, I owned and sat at a sturdy, wooden desk that I picked up at Goodwill for $50 in 2002. It served me very well for a long time. However, since recently moving into a new home, I wanted to make a change to something cooler, more modern, adjustable, and incapable of incentivizing me to store junk. I saw this desk on Amazon, read the good reviews, and determined this was the one. After assembling it, I am thrilled I chose this one. With a press of a button, I can raise and lower it to appropriate heights for either comfortably sitting or standing (I'm 5'10"). The material itself is very sturdy. There are NO drawers, which, after 20 years of having the other home desk and having desks at work, I realized that drawers do nothing more than collect and store junk. Can't do that with this desk, as this desk encourages minimalism and storing that junk somewhere else, i.e., probably the trash, while I keep this desk tidy. Assembly was fairly easy. Definitely recommend." —David Taylor

Get it from Amazon for $159.99+ (available in five sizes and 12 styles). 

Initial purchase comes with either a 7-day or 30-day free trial of Hatch+ premium content and features. Upon completion of your free trial, a subscription costs either $4.99/month or $49.99/year.

Promising review: "I love my Hatch! This is definitely something I do not regret purchasing. There are so many options to make your sleep perfect! The sound is great, the lights are great when the alarm goes off (you can set your light to go off 10-15-30-whatever minutes you prefer before your alarm goes off so you can wake up comfortably! The clock itself is also great quality. Highly recommend!" —Melissa V.

Get it from Amazon for $169.99 (available in three colors).

Promising review: "I'm a dental hygienist and have known about the research with the Waterpik for years, and have seen how effective it is when recommending it to patients, but I just bought this for myself and I love it. When used for three seconds straight in between teeth, this product has been proven to be just as effective as floss while also flushing out any food debris or other irritants from below the gums and massaging them as well. You have to use the Waterpik and experience how well your gums feel afterward to believe it. Do yourself a favor and buy this product, whether you have severe periodontal problems or are perfectly healthy. The attachments that come with this make it perfect for anyone to use. It may get a little messy, but it's well worth investing in and getting a little wet while using to get the benefits this product has to offer. Another trick is to put mouthwash in the water reservoir and use it, diluted or not, to really get it below the gum, which normal swishing won't do. Throw in an electric brush and you have the perfect combination for a happy, healthy mouth." —Johnnybombplate

Get it from Amazon for $78.99+ (available in four colors).
