Roasting meat or cooking a messy casserole right on the oven rack is a quick way to make a huge mess in the bottom of the oven. And you know who will have to clean that cooked-on mess when you discover that the “oven cleaner” function does nothing? No one if you put one of these oven liner mats on the rack below your creation before you cook. They cut to fit, clean up in the sink or dishwasher, and can be used repeatedly. This is a two-pack.

When you stock up on fresh produce, you are setting yourself up to eat well. But when you discover it has all spoiled before you get around to eating it, it’s enough to make you quit on the whole plan. Drop a piece of these food storage sheets into your produce bins, bags, or crisper drawer, though, and it will all last longer. “What is this sorcery?” asked one reviewer. “I put a full sheet in with my bowl of tangerines. Three weeks later they were as perfect as the day I bought them. I put half a sheet in with a box of lettuce. Two weeks later, almost every leaf is still perfect.”

Paper towels are weak sauce compared to the strength and absorbent powers of these Swedish dish cloths that are made from a combination of cellulose and cotton. That powerful combo makes these strong enough to use repeatedly, machine washable, a bit gritty, and as absorbent as a big handful of paper towels. You will save time and money, in the long run, by investing in these instead of disposable paper.

Lightly misting with oil — instead of dousing baking sheets and food with it — is more ideal for your health. But canned cooking spray oils are full of preservatives and who knows what. This oil sprayer bottle is an easy way to know what’s in your cooking oil while misting your foods with just the right amount. Every pull of the trigger delivers about 1/4 teaspoon of oil right where you point it.

A couple of tablespoons of peanut butter. Some of that expensive jam you got as a gift. Enough mayonnaise to make another sandwich. This is what you are throwing away when you give up on attempting to get the last of your foods out of the jar. It’s not worth it, you reason. And it isn’t unless you have this long-handled jar scraper spatula that makes getting it out super easy. It also makes spreading things easier. The key is the firm nylon skeleton wrapped in flexible silicone.

Instead of letting delicate garments and other frilly and not-so-durable washables fend for themselves in the rough and tumble world of the washer and dryer, put them into these honeycomb mesh laundry bags to protect them from zippers, getting hopelessly tangled and stretched, and other in-laundry assaults. There are three bags for all your fine washables.

Letting the sponge you plan to wash the dishes with sit in the sink with all the dirty dishes is OK when there are only one or two dishes. But when the sink fills up, this plan falls apart. And eventually, someone has to fish around in dirty dishwater for a now-dirty sponge. Hang this stainless steel sink basket to the side of the sink and put the sponge in there, instead. It will always be clean, drip dry into the sink, and be much more sanitary.

It’s so easy to fix that dangerous lack of light on your staircase with this three-pack of LED stair lights that there is really no excuse for letting people feel their way down a dark stairway.

They are battery powered so you don’t have to worry about running wires.

How often do you pull dishes out of the dishwasher and study them before you know if you can add a dirty dish to the machine? This dishwasher magnet is the signal you need to avoid that annoyance. Stick it to the dishwasher and slide it from clean to dirty when you unload the dishes. Slide it back to clean when you turn on the dishwasher. It’s an easy habit and it makes this small thing so much better.

You can attach it to the back of a closet door, a wall, or anywhere convenient. It holds three brooms or mops in the clamps and another four hangable items from the hooks.

If you pack your lunch in a little brown paper bag, you probably find that everything is a bit smashed, room temperature, and a tad skimpy when you sit down to eat.

If you are going to take the time to prep lunch, why not prep three? Line these glass meal-prep containers up on the counter, and fill them with leftovers, salad, sandwiches, or whatever you have.

Eating from them is a pleasure, too.

The top of the hand-soap dispenser bottle is very likely ground zero for a lot of germs and dirt because it’s the thing people with dirty hands touch when they feel the need to get clean. This automatic liquid soap dispenser eliminates that touch point by using an infrared motion sensor to recognize when a hand wants soap. Fill it with whatever soap you like. You can see when it’s full or empty and choose from five different output levels.

Screen doors seem like a necessity if you enjoy your outdoor spaces. But they have problems if you have kids, adults carrying trays of snacks or cocktails, or pets that want to go through them.

The two mesh curtain panels keep bugs out and the row of magnets that run down the inner seam closes them automatically when anyone goes through. No opening and closing a door all day or struggling through a door with a tray of goodies.

When a laptop gets hot, it can be very uncomfortable for the person whose lap it is on. It’s also bad for the components. Setting it on a pillow helps the lap but increases the heat for the machine. This dual-fan laptop cooler, though, saves both by moving the hot air away from the laptop and cooling both the lap and the computer. You plug it directly into your laptop to power it so there is no need to sit near an outlet.

Hanging pants on a coat hanger can be done, but it’s irritating to both hang and retrieve pants that are stored that way.

It comes in lots of colors, has a wide mouth for easy filling, and has three types of lids so you can sip the way you like.

If you don’t take action against the build-up of hair in your shower drain, it will rise up and create a problem that will slow the water, then stop it, and could eventually require the services of an expensive plumber.

You can stack them for double the height.

Whether you miscalculated or trusted the wrong plant sitter, this can be avoided by planting them in these self-watering pots that will help them last up to 14 days without attention. The inner pots sit in an outer pot that has a well of water in the bottom. Cotton wicks pull that water to the roots. The outer pot is clear so you can see when to fill them.

Hang this clever wall-mounted key holder at a convenient place near your entry and get in the habit of hanging your keys, sunglasses, and the rest of your EDC on it and you will never again waste time looking for the things you need to leave the house. There are five hooks and two decorative shelves and it comes in three colors.

Splashes, drips, and spills all seem to accumulate on the counter surrounding the kitchen faucet. That water can cause mold and mildew to accumulate there. And someone has to clean that.

If you set your nice bar of soap in a standard soap dish it will start to melt and crack because it doesn’t dry out efficiently that way.

It takes all of five minutes to install, which is probably less time than it takes to clean up that water.

Yes, you can put your furniture right where that outlet is and still have a phone charger there. And the furniture does not have to be a foot from the wall for that to work. Just plug this ultra-thin and flat USB wall charger into that outlet. Four USB cords run down from the plug, which just an inch thick. You can run phone chargers or whatever you like from it, and it won’t push the furniture away from the wall any more than the baseboards do. Plus, the prongs fold in in case you want to travel with it.

If you have toys, gaming accessories, shoes, books, or whatever cluttering up your living room or bedroom, the solution is super simple: Hide it in plain sight.

Putting the laundry away is a struggle if you are trying to get by with the strange assortment of clothes hangers you accumulated from buying clothes or going to the dry cleaner.

You get into bed, exhausted, and turn off your bedside light only to realize that a light is on elsewhere. Too tired to get up, you close your eyes and sleep, leaving it on all night.
