The Raemao Massage Gun is backed by more than 8,700 perfect ratings and comes with 15 attachments to ensure that you hit the right spot every time. Most portable massagers include only two or three attachments — not so with this kit. This number of choices can be overwhelming, but the flat head is suitable for all body parts and is a good place to start before moving on to other attachments that pinpoint specific muscles. One five-star reviewer said it is “solidly built” with “amazing battery life,” adding that it’s an “excellent choice for anyone looking to alleviate muscle pain and tension.” Another shopper said it “soothes muscle aches in a matter of seconds.”

If you suffer from plantar fasciitis, strained Achilles tendons, shin splints or just sore leg muscles, the DMoose Calf Stretcher & Foot Stretcher is for you! This leg-stretcher strap helps work our calves, ankles, hamstrings and more, and it is especially useful for dancers and athletes wanting to give their legs a little relief. Six hand loops on the strap provide different stretching levels, an easy grip when exercising.

One customer said it “dramatically changed” his leg flexibility: “I let this thing sit around for two months after I received it, and then one day I decided to see what it could do. It felt awkward at first, as one might imagine, but we quickly adjusted to one another. What does it do for me? Well for one, I have plantar fasciitis on the right foot. It has dramatically relieved that pain to the point where I believe it’s coming to a conclusion after 6 months. Further, I have always had very tight hamstrings. The pain in the back of my calves when trying to touch my toes was excruciating. This contraption allowed me to gradually pull within my pain tolerance. It’s greatly improved my leg flexibility and progress seems almost daily.”

If you’re having dryer issues, the problem may not be your appliance — you might just have a ton of lint buildup going on in there. Before you run out and blow hundreds of bucks on a new unit, grab the Sealegend Dryer Vent Cleaner Kit. It’ll do just what its name says, and it just may make your dryer run a lot more efficiently — and certainly more safely by preventing deadly vent fires from sparking.

Cleaning out your vents may even speed up your dryer time by up to 15 minutes! Not bad for nine bucks. Reviewers have attested to the Sealegend’s usefulness: “I clean the lint trap out once a month with the vacuum hose extender furnished here. I also use the brush to help clean out my exterior dryer vent. It takes only minutes but helps provide peace of mind in helping to prevent dryer fires,” noted a five-star fan.

Auto

How often have you had your purse slip onto the back seat and spill your stuff everywhere? Sure, you could toss your bag onto the passenger seat if you’re riding solo, but 1) one sharp stop or serious pothole and it’s going flying, and 2) what about when you have a front-seat passenger? The point is, you need a real solution, like the Car Cache. It’ll keep your tote in the middle console, where it belongs, for easy access to your wallet, lip balm, glasses … well, you get the idea.

The Car Cache creates a hammock for your belongings to sit in between your front seats, so your things remain secure and organized while in transit. Setup is a breeze, and it’ll stay in place for as long as you need. Plus, the Cache has a pocket to store important things all the time — keep tissues, air fresheners, antiseptic wipes, stuffed animals and so on in there for whenever the moment requires.

Vacuums

This incredible Inse cordless vac has an upgraded motor with super-strong suction, which means it can make quick work of all the nasties — like pet hair, dust and dirt — lingering on your floor mats and in your carpet. Plus, since it’s cordless and converts to a handheld in seconds, you can use it just about anywhere: beds, curtains, stairs, the couch.

“I purchased this vacuum a few months ago because the deal was way too good to pass up for a cordless vacuum,” reported one awestruck Amazon-ian. “The device charges really quickly and works great for hardwood floors. It’s lightweight, and the various brush heads are super helpful and convenient for my small apartment.”

Kitchen

Don’t be fooled by how cute this rainbow Cuisinart set is — these knives are beasts on the cutting board. Included you’ll find an 8-inch chef knife, an 8-inch slicing knife, an 8-inch serrated bread knife, a 7-inch santoku knife, a 6.5-inch utility knife and a 3.5-inch paring knife, each of them crafted with high-quality stainless steel that you can keep sharp and safe inside its matching sheath.

“Where have these been all my life?” asked a quick-thinking shopper. “I’ll admit these were an almost-impulse purchase as I had been stalking them for a while on my shopping list, and when the price went down I thought ‘why not?’ although I have a drawer full of knives. I’d donate every other knife I own … in a heartbeat if my husband wouldn’t complain. These are a delight.”

If you run hot during your slumber, the Pharmedoc Cooling Memory Foam Pillow is packed with elements to help keep you cool and comfortable while you snooze. It’s crafted from memory foam that helps provide impressive support that cradles your head and neck in bed, and has ventilation holes to allow air to pass through, cooling off your pillow, and your noggin, in the process. It’s even infused with a special cooling gel to help keep it — and you — from overheating during the night. And, because it’s created from a block of memory foam, the Pharmedoc Cooling Memory Foam Pillow won’t easily lose its shape like other pillows.

Nearly 2,200 Amazon shoppers have given the Pharmedoc pillow a perfect review. One five-star fan called this the “best pillow.” The fan added, “I have had a terrible time finding the right pillow. They are either too hard or they squish down by morning, and either way I wake up with neck, back and jaw pain. This pillow is great. I love it!”

Beauty and wellness

Keeping up with body hair growth can be difficult — unless you have this handy little gadget, of course. Instead of spending hundreds or thousands on razors, shaving products, waxing, bleaching and so on, try the XSoul Hair Removal Device. This treatment uses advanced IPL (intense pulsed light) technology to break the cycle of hair regrowth for permanent hair reduction, delivering flawlessly smooth and hairless skin.

“I got this for using on my underarms and it really works. After one week I was noticing slower and thinner growth, and now it’s so slow and thin I forget to keep using it,” shared one beauty maven. “For someone who just gave up on sleeveless tops because they always had such bad irritation from shaving, this is totally worth it.”
