Promising review: "These really don’t bleed/show too badly through college-ruled or lined paper (or regular printer paper), and I LOVE them for schoolwork. They've made my life so much easier and prettier! They glide much more easily than regular pens. I also love that they seem to never dry out despite the fact that I’ve been using them for at least two weeks now and have left the most-used black marker open for several long periods already. I've come back to still find plenty of ink and no change in the writing ability. I think these are great-quality pens and definitely worth the purchase." —NATTYLIGHT

Promising review: "I can't think of a better 'top of the morning' expression than 'You've Got This!' That got my attention. Love the visual clock graphic too. I use a weekly planner & having daily pages available as needed are great. The layout is useful, not excessively detailed while still including all the important sections. It's aesthetically pleasing." —Wynelle

Promising review: "The shelves are exactly as pictured. They are perfect for displaying vinyls. They were easy to hang. They are able to hold larger records. Red (Taylor’s Version) is 4 vinyls and it is no problem for the shelf. They have held for about two months without any issue so far." —Ty

Promising review: "The design is sleek and minimalist. I'm prone to clutter, so this shelf gives me a place to put things intentionally so that I don't get overwhelmed in my workspace. I also like that it only took about 10 minutes to fully assemble. If you've ever made your own IKEA furniture before, no need to fear; you'll do fine." —Mary Anne Layus

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes says, "After seeing this coffee warmer all over BuzzFeed Shopping and even gifting my dad one for Christmas, I finally decided to buy one for myself. Based on all the reviews, I was pretty confident I'd soon be kicking myself for not getting it sooner, and that proved to be true: This thing not only looks good, but works great for keeping my coffee warm all day long (because yes, I'm one of those people that'll sip on coffee until 5 p.m., all right!!). I was kind of worried it'd be too small for some of my larger mugs, but the center plate is bigger than expected and accommodated every mug in my (very eclectic) collection perfectly. I can confirm that flat-bottomed mugs are the best option for using with this warmer as they do stay hotter, but it still keeps my concaved-bottom mugs warm enough for my taste. Also, I looove how sleek the white version looks on my white desk, and the auto-shutoff function is a nice safety feature as an absent-minded person."
Promising review: "I researched so many coffee warmers and am so glad I decided on this one. It definitely keeps my coffee hot, no matter how long it takes me to drink it. I also like that it has three settings. As you drink down your coffee, you can lower the heat because it keeps the coffee very hot. I like it so much I ordered a second one for another part of the house." —hottytoddy

They are also dishwasher-safe and come with two cleaning brushes to make it easy for you to clean those straws and use them right away again.
I use these myself every day and I swear everything just tastes better when you're drinking from these. They're so aesthetically pleasing that my friends have bought them as well and they no longer drink their morning iced coffee from anything but these cups. I also love that I can reuse the glass straws and don't have to be throwing away plastic straws everyday! Super easy to clean too!
Promising review: "Buy these if you want to give yourself a little treat every day of your life. It doesn't matter if it's water or the most expensive drink you've ever made, these glasses will make you feel aesthetic. They're super easy to clean by hand or just throw them in the dishwasher like me." —Reagan Kirk

Promising review: "I've been seeing retro-style typewriter keyboards on TikTok for a while now. I aways thought, 'That looks pretty cool!' Decided to look on here and found this one. I just got it today and so far has been working great! I had no problems connecting the keyboard via Bluetooth, and the clicking of the keys is really nice, one of the reasons why I wanted to get this." —dee

Promising review: "We could not be happier with this bamboo plant stand. The product was very well packaged by the manufacturer to prevent damage. The assembly instructions are very well done, including illustrations. Assembly hardware was of high quality and included the necessary tool to complete assembly. The predrilled assembly holes are accurate. The stand itself is made of good quality, sturdy wood. The varnish coating is even and added a nice finish to the stand. We recommend this product highly if you're looking for a good looking, well made, easy to assemble, sturdy plant stand." —Scuba Mark

Promising review: "These are amazing! We use them for so many things! For positive messages and romantic nights, they are amazing for leaving around the house! You can also stick them to paper and restick the same ones over and over again! They seem to never lose their adhesion! Everyone I’ve shown these to fall in love with them!" —Faith

This diffuser has over 53,800 5-star ratings! It also has a color-changing lamp with seven colors, a nightlight, auto-off, and a programmable on and off, so you can go to sleep or wake up feeling your best. You should use 100% pure essential oils with it.
Promising review: "This is a great product! The design is aesthetically pleasing and functions well without fuss. It has options for pulse vs. constant mist with an auto shutoff after it's empty. It also has cool multicolored lights, which you can choose to rotate through or set at a certain color. There are multiple hues to choose from. It only makes a whisper of sound. It also has a fairly long cord which gives you room to move it around. I've used lavender oil and it's filled my home with tranquility." —Julie Wilkinson
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in three colors).
Promising reviews: "Sooo useful!! If you have lots of plugs with bulky adapters that won't fit on a regular power bar, then you need this. Thought it felt a little light or flimsy when opened, but not at all, does the job fantastically, keeps cables neat and powered, plus looks great. Also, there is a deep push power button on the bar which has a blue light, so much better than a switch, as the switch can easily turn off if a wire pulls against it etc., which used to happen a lot with regular power bars I used. Very impressed with design, quality and function — highly recommend for convenience, practicality, and aesthetics." —Janice Robson
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in five colors).
Promising review: "I was so happy with the first one I bought that I purchased another shortly afterward. In addition to several levels of brightness for regular light, you can select one of several colors for mood/night lighting. You change your lighting selection with a simple finger tap on the top of the lamp. To turn on/off, just press lightly for a couple of seconds. The light is USB powered (most newer nightstands/tables have a USB port) and the battery lasts a long time. You get a lot of light for your money — I strongly recommend this product." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes).
It features three different brightness settings, so you can adjust to what you need whether it's well past midnight and you're pulling an all-nighter or it's the middle of the day and you need a little boost of energy.
Promising review: "Perfect desktop lamp for my office. I keep my phone charger plugged into the handy USB port as well. I like the adjustable settings and I don’t ever feel like it’s 'too bright' like some LED lamps. I haven’t had any issues with my phone (iPhone 11 Pro) not connecting either. Well worth the price." —coley7788
Get it from Amazon for $22.94 (available in six colors).

Promising review: "Saw it on TikTok and thought it would be a great bottle for work. It is very sleek and lightweight enough to carry when you have other items in your hand. I love the modern look and cleans very easily! The time increments really do motivate, definitely ordering again for myself and gifts. Fast delivery and very nice packaging." —Rosa

Check out a TikTok of the foldable 3-in-1 charger in action.
Promising review: "I use this product to charge my IPhone 13, AirPods, and Apple Watch. Prior to this 3-in-1 compact purchase, I have purchased three different kinds of 3-in-1 chargers — I frequently travel between school and home with carry-on bags on airlines and all of the previous stand version chargers don't fit well in my bags or I am always worried I would break. This is compact and folds so well that I can fit in my carry-on or in any zipper pockets without having to worry about breaking anything. Charger works really well and it is the best compact one you can find in market. Love it and been using it for two months now and no issues!!" —SBREDDY
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in nine colors).
Promising review: "This product works exactly as I'd hoped and is now neatly under my desk without taking up so much room that I bump it or knock it off when I sit down. Adhesive stuck on easily and feels very sturdy. Remember to be realistic in terms of the weight of objects you put in these drawers (i.e. don't fill it with heavy items and then get upset when the adhesive wears down quickly). Pens, paperclips, sticky notes, earbuds, and scissors all fit in mine and I will definitely buy these again for our other desks." —Shopping Mama

You can also check out these under-desk storage products to clear up some more clutter on your desktop!
Promising review: "Looks amazing. Love this chair in red! It is not only aesthetically pleasing but also very comfortable to sit on for over 8 hours. I will use it for work daily at home, however, it is also a perfect fit as a dressing chair, a reading chair, or a place for taking a rest. Its price is unbelievably affordable compared to similar products at stores. Last but not least, the overall design is great and looks much better than the picture. Fast shipping, assembled it in 15 minutes, elegant and high quality feeling. So, highly recommend; don't miss this lovely addition to your home." —Colt

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 $219.99+ (available with and without wheels).

Promising reviews: "I've been looking for fairy lights for my curtains for a while. These are great and look great! I love the multiple settings you can use to set the right mood/ambiance. I'm currently using them in my gaming office and really like the aesthetic feel to the room now." —Charlie V.
"I bought these beautiful string lights a little over a month ago for my college bedroom and love them!! If you’re like me and are looking to spruce up your new apartment, or maybe you don’t have much room for intricate lighting, these are PERFECT. These lights are very in. I saw something like these on TikTok, and I just had to have them. As soon as I put these babies up, they fell right into place (really, like a curtain), are the perfect brightness (but can be dimmed), and fill the entire wall." —Katie Ernst

1801 & Co. is a small family-owned business based on Minnesota that was established in 2016 and specializes in wall calendars, chore charts, wedding signs, and more.
Promising review: "I love it! I got it so fast after ordering and it’s perfect. I love the sleek design for my small home office space. I can’t function at work without a dry erase board but couldn’t find any that would look nice in my office space which is in the corner of my master bedroom! Having a functional office space that doesn't LOOK like an office in the bedroom is challenging but this acrylic board is PERFECT. The black pen that comes with it is very nice fine tip and erases without a trace." —Dawn Powell
Get it from 1801 & Co. on Etsy for $13.46+ (originally $17.95+; available in multiple thicknesses and sizes as well as six hardware colors).
Promising review: "I took a chance and bought this originally as a 'Band-Aid fix' to refinish a desk. I had looked in stores in the contact paper aisles, but all of them were just that...paper. THIS item is actually a thin sheet of vinyl (?) with adhesive, and I ended up liking it so much I bought more and refinished my kitchen countertop with it as well! Highly recommended if you want to change the look of your counters but you don't have the money for a full remodel just yet. It can be cleaned with dish soap and water just like a real countertop." —Ezra Boyd
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in five sizes).
It has adhesive on the back, so no need for tools or special hardware.
Promising review: "Sticks to my white board and can hold a fair bit of trash. For the price and sturdiness, I would definitely buy it again." —Justine T.
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in two colors).
Plus they're easy to assemble with all hardware included!
Promising review: "The directions were very easy to follow. I like that the directions offered multiple styles and choices for hanging. I did two shelves on my living room wall for plants and the third above my kitchen stove for a beautiful way to store spices for cooking. The boards feel like fake, pressed wood but I think they still look great. I’m by no means an expert with using a drill but I was able to get the job done." —Lauren G
Get a set of three from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in six colors).

Promising reviews: "I love this product. I started by putting it just on the windows on my front door for privacy. But, when light shines through it, it creates rainbows on the floors and walls. So I put it over all the windows of my office. I’ve purchased a total of six rolls and they have all been consistent. Great quality and it goes up very easily. It’s easy to cut to size if necessary. And the rainbows are just magical! Also it’s not super noticeable from the outside, so no HOA issues. Highly recommend!" —Squeakybird
"If you're debating about these just do it! They made my office feel so unique and perfect for me. Friends who have totally different styles even loved them and asked! Let's in a lot of light but private enough to go without curtains or blinds. Casts rainbows with direct light and at night the streetlights make the window look so cool 😍" —Erin Utt
Get them from Amazon for $9.98+ (available in 11 sizes).
Promising review: "Wow! I love it even more in person! First of all, I ordered this on a Sunday evening, and I am already sitting in it on Thursday afternoon. The color is even better than I hoped. It’s more of a dusty rose color. It’s super soft and velvety, and the cushioning is very firm. The legs were easy to assemble. Three screws for each leg, which easily fit in the pre-threaded holes. There’s a little tag on both pieces that says the brand name, I’m probably going to carefully cut that off. I bought this for my office and dressing room. It looks very glamorous and with a modern vintage twist. Definitely 5 stars and would recommend!" —Andrea M

This would also make a great present for someone going into college!" —Madison Bell

Promising review: "Sturdy and functional. I use it as a lap desk while I'm in bed or when I need to sit on the floor. The cupholder doubles as a place to set up my phone for face calls. The other pocket holds books open and upright for me. It's also got a lite drawer where I store my pens and brushes. Worth every penny I"ll probably buy another one as a backup." —Paulie
