Mount this little security camera inside or out to keep an eye on your home, front door, yard, or driveway from wherever you are.

It’s even magnetic so you can stick it to the fridge or BBQ.

Not only will this borosilicate glass electric kettle bring seven cups of water to a boil quickly — in three to seven minutes — but you can watch the water boil as it does.

“Such a smart and sleek idea,” said one reviewer. “The outlet is concealed and I still have power access nearby.”

This bathroom storage cabinet is so slender that you can sneak it into the space next to the toilet and it will take up only a 5-inch footprint.

When it gets too dirty to use, throw it away. Nearly 37,000 people gave this clever cleaning hack five stars.

Transform your movie-watching experience in less time than it takes to make popcorn by sticking these LED backlights to the back of the TV and plugging them into your TV’s USB port.

“I thought it would be nice to have the ambient light around the television for aesthetics but didn't realize how much better my TV picture would look,” said one reviewer.

When your kitchen becomes a meeting ground for fruit flies, deploy the Katchy insect trap and say goodbye to those unwanted guests.

Instead of buying a case of water bottles and then having to recycle all those empties, buy a big refillable water jug, top it with this electric water dispenser, and fill a glass with spring water at the touch of a button.

These silicone magnetic cable ties are so much better than twist ties or zip ties for corralling cords. They are flexible enough to wrap around the cord and have magnetic ends that snap easily together — and then snap apart again if you need to move that cord.

This is a pack of 30 in a variety of colors.
