Extremely clever things on Amazon reviewers use multiple times a day — & you'll wish you knew about sooner

Instead of jamming all your vitamins, spices, or cosmetics into a cupboard and digging around in there when you need something, set them on this three-tier shelf organizer so you can see them all at once. There are two sizes, each expanding to fit your cupboard or shelf. Choose from four color options to create the look you want.

One reviewer said: “I was able to fit: seven vitamin bottles, four cough medicine bottles, two big pill bottles, [and] 36 various-sized pill bottles. Depending on the size of the bottles, it could possibly hold a lot more.”

Give your razor a permanent home — where it can drip dry and not clutter up the counter or shower — by sticking these two razor holders to the tile or the mirror in the bathroom.

One reviewer said: “Love this razor holder for my shower! It keeps my razor nice and dry so it lasts longer! Just peel off the back paper and place it in your shower and it stays in place!”

Set this car trash can in your whip and prevent the inevitable weekly (or monthly) car cleanout. Without a system trash easily lands on the floor or back seat, but with this roomy and waterproof solution hanging from the seat back or anchored to the console, you will put detritus here instead. Cleaning the car will be a matter of grabbing the trash liner and tossing it. It has a lid to hide and contain the mess and side pockets to stash in-car essentials.

One reviewer said: “This is by far the best trash can I've bought for a vehicle. I sit it on the floor directly behind the center console so I just need to reach back and put things in it without even taking my eyes off the road. It has never fallen over and holds a significant amount of trash.”

Instead of dousing your food or pan with oil — or lemon juice, soy sauce, or other condiments — spray it lightly with this oil sprayer so you can get the oil or flavor you want without overdoing it. The glass bottle lets you see what’s in it and the big button on the lid makes spraying easy on the hands — with no pumping.

One reviewer said: “I have tried many different ones and this one is the best by far! Doesn’t leak, doesn’t clog, [and] sprays evenly not in one lump spot! I love it!”

One reviewer said: “You know how when you’re driving down the road and you’re trying to get the thermostat set to your comfort level? You get it just right and then your windshield becomes a science project???!! Well, grab this little miracle eraser and give that foggy glass a quick swipe. Voilà! Everything is clear and stays clear! You have probably just saved your own life and possibly others as well!”

When your adorable fur baby leaves a not-so-cute patch of fur on the couch, the carpets, or your jeans, pull out this reusable pet hair remover and quickly wipe it clean.

One reviewer said: “I love these so much better than sponges and wish I would have switched years ago. They are great for cleaning and then when they get too dirty to just rinse off, I can throw them in the washer to clean and reuse instead of throwing them away like sponges.

One reviewer said: “Before I had these organizers, I just threw my underwear in the drawer without even really folding them, so I would just randomly grab a pair ...

And it all wipes away easily when plans change or the week is fresh.
