They are constricting, create an ugly lump under shirts, and are annoying to buckle and unbuckle all day. Unfortunately, they are a necessity. So when I saw the ad for this product, I ordered two — one for me and one for my daughter. She has since placed an order, as have my two sisters-in-law. I’ve also purchased two more for my husband, who had stolen mine. He loves them! The quality is great. They are easily adjustable. They look like they will last for years. And, best of all, they keep pants firmly and comfortably in place!" —JB

This didn't eliminate it 100%, but I would say it's definitely at least a 50% improvement, which is huge.

    Cords are 6 feet long and have three plugs each.

    Promising review: "Perfect solution to king-size bed and nightstand power! I have no idea why these are not sold everywhere. I ended up getting this due to my king-size bed being against a wall with only one outlet. I needed a way to connect my two lamps on my nightstand and this is absolutely, without a doubt, the very best solution to connecting my lamps and also not having all my outlets taken up. I recommend this to everyone! Also perfect for outlets connected to a switch to turn on and off both lights at the same time." —Ryan

    Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed

    Here's what BuzzFeed writer Jenae Sitzes has to say about these:

    "I decided to finally give these cord protectors a go recently and can absolutely vouch for their effectiveness. One of my cats, Sneaky, is a notorious cord chewer and particularly loves going to town on the charging cable for his automatic water fountain — you can check out the damage above. I was getting to the point where I was afraid it'd stop working entirely, so I ordered these protectors. They snap on and off *so* easily — flexible enough for removal, but thick and durable enough that your kitty's teeth are no match against the thick wire loom. Sneaky pretty quickly realized he'd finally been defeated once he discovered these on his favorite chewing spots (I also applied a protector to my poor MacBook charging wire, which was another target), and I haven't seen him even attempting to chew anymore.

    Note: I ordered the 1/2-inch diameter ones, butyou could definitely go down to the 1/4-inch or even 1/8-inch sizes if you're only planning to cover a single thin cableso it's not quite as bulky as mine looks above."

    Promising review: "I have a wall hung TV with black wires and cables against a white wall. This was theperfectsolutionfor camouflaging them. Was easy to install as well." —Tom G

    Get it from Amazon for$8.99+ (available in 15 sizes and three colors).

    33. Agenius medication trackerbecause trying to remember if and when you've taken your pills sometimes seems impossible. This attaches right to the pill bottle so you can easily mark when you've taken them — and then, when the bottle's empty, the tracker can be moved to your refill bottle.

    The nifty gadget comes from small biz Take-n-Slide. They're also great for using on pet meds, vitamins, and anything else you routinely forget to take/give.

    Promising review: "I have ADHD and have a lot of trouble remembering to take my medication or forgetting whether I have taken it on a given day. I tried other systems with little success, but this is theperfectsolution. I keep the bottle where it’s highly visible and at a glance I know if I should take my medication. Because it’s on the bottle, I never forget to update it. The device itself is well engineered and high quality. The plastic feels very durable, and the switches are big enough to flip with a thumb but not too big either. Flipping the switches is tactility pleasing, and the switches lock in place when moved, so think if you put this in a drawer or purse it would not switch on accident." —Christina Burghard

    34. A pair of no-tie elastic lacesfor folks who love the style and funtionality of laces but find them such a hassle to deal with...especially when they keep coming undone no matter how tight you tie 'em! Well, problem solved.

    Amazon

    Promising reviews: "Yes, yes, and yes! Get these! I love my Chucks but I don’t like the look of floppy laces so these are theperfectsolutionfor that! They make it easy to slide my shoes on and off and the laces hold in place." —Renee Fergman

    "My 12-year-old son is on the autism spectrum. He can tie his shoes, but he lacks the muscle strength in his hands to tie them tight. They're always loose and sloppy. These laces are theperfectsolutionbecause they make it easy for the kids to just slip on the shoe quickly. It's a tight yet comfortable fit. The laces look very natural, so no one will really know they aren't 'real.'" —Flutterfly

    Get them from Amazon for $11.99 (available in 38 colors).

    35. A handy little in-car dip clipthat attaches to the vent to securely hold ketchup, BBQ sauce, or whatever delicious dipping sauce you prefer with your french fries and nuggets. Now you can start feasting right in the drive-thru parking lot — and you won't have to worry about spills!

    Promising review: "Bought these for my adult children’s Christmas stockings, and they were a huge hit. Who doesn’t love sauce and dipping fries, but doesn’t want that little tub to spill and make the biggest mess? These are theperfectsolutionand have been used already. They are great for all restaurants that use the little tubs. We even kept an empty tub to squirt ketchup in, and it’s a game changer." —Tina

    36. A jewelry-cleaning brush to bring the *sparkle* back to your favorite rings, necklaces, and bracelets. You'll actually be able to wear them again instead of just hiding them in the drawer until you finally make it to the jeweler's.

    Twist the bottom of the pen to dispense the fluid and brush onto the gem to clean! Check out ourDiamond Dazzle Stik review for more deets on why it's such a ~gem~ of a product.

    Promising reviews:"I used it for the first time today and I can't believe what a difference it makes. My diamonds are even more vibrant than they were before. I love that I can keep this in my purse and use it on the go. I bought it because I am going on vacation and still wanted to be able to clean my ring and this was theperfectsolution." —Allyk

    "You guys! This has saved me from having to go to the jewelers! I had to pay $30 for my ring and $40 my necklace before; now I’ve cleaned them both twice for a fraction of that price! All you do is wet the brush, clean your jewelry, and rinse! Definitely will be buying more!" —noel martinez

    Get it from Amazon for$9.48(also available in multipacks).

    37. A set of nonstick oven linersbecause cleaning bits of burnt food off the bottom of the oven is a terrible way to spend your day off. These will collect drips and crumbs so that all you have to do is pull them out and clean them off (they're even dishwashwer-safe!).
