These highlighter pencils were made for your type-A, stationery-loving bestie.

Promising review: "This is my first ergonomic mouse. If anything happened to it, I would just repurchase it! I really, really like it. I never realized how uncomfortable using a traditional mouse and/or laptop touchpad was until I started using this mouse and, on occasion, switched to my touchpad while sitting in bed. My hand cramps and wrist pain are completely gone. I really didn't think it was because of my lack of ergonomic equipment, but you really appreciate it once you've got it. The volume button on the mouse is really convenient and quiet, which I prefer. I've accidentally chucked this thing across the room, with it landing on the hardwood floor, and it still survived. Luv it :-)!" —Nai

Promising review: "I bought this parody of Killian's Love, Don’t Be Shy, and it smells amazing. For spending less than $50 on what would normally be an almost $400 bottle of perfume, you just can’t beat it. I thought, based on the price, it was a risk, and there might be a slight chemical smell, but there’s not; it’s absolutely amazing, lasts for several hours, and the bottle is huge. At first, it smells like a strong, sweet, warm musk, but as it wears off, it just smells sweeter and sweeter. It’s absolutely the best, and I will be buying again." —Slates

Promising review: "I bought both sizes of these! I have always loved the cork blocks (best value for money, IMO) and preferred them over any other material, and have used them throughout my practice and teacher training. I decided to buy them for my home gym, and I have used them every day since. I feel like since they’re heavy, they’re the perfect weight for my practice as I do a lot of supported balance poses and other blocks tend to drop because they're too light (and I’m a bit wobbly 😂). Highly recommend to elevate any practice, and they’re an excellent blend of style and functionality, which is a must for me!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I bought this on a whim. We lost a big tree to a storm last summer and wanted to do something interesting with the stump. It's mossy and covered in fungi. It was the perfect base for my new Fairy Garden. Easy to install and fun to 'landscape' and decorate. Looking forward to expanding the bed with fairy-friendly plants." —C. Meyers

Promising review: "Saw on TikTok and thought the amount of dust that this vacuum picked up was WILD. Every single time I use this vacuum, it pulls up so much from my carpet. I've even had to dump the canister after a couple of rooms. The noise level is average compared to that of any other vacuum. Cleaning power is great, especially when you are pulling the vacuum back to you. The suction is next level! I love that I can take it apart and clean my stairs without having to lug the entire system up and down. I have recommended this vacuum to friends. I've seen it on TikTok being used as a top choice among professional cleaners as well." —Ashley

Promising review: "They're ridiculously good. They have a lovely, perfectly sweet caramelized crust. With added Himalayan salt. Crackery, buttery crunch. I can definitely see them being incredible with a pungent cheese spread and hot honey or something similar. Perfect for a unique addition to a charcuterie board. They came packaged really well. Not one was broken. I will absolutely be purchasing more, but the 30-count. The 10-count won't last me long." —SaraK

Price: $19.99+ (available in two styles and two pack sizes)

Promising review: "I purchased this soap on what seemed like an endless exploration to find a soap that works for my dry skin. One that smells decent, lasts a long time, and actually gets us clean. THIS SOAP IS THE ONE. It feels amazing, and after a shower, I no longer feel itchy or uncomfortable. My wife is an automotive mechanic and was struggling to find a soap that truly deep cleaned stains from oil, grease, fuel, dirt, and grime. Let me just say that the day she used it, the black stains on her hands and nails we thought were permanent just disappeared. She was so happy. This soap also lasts quite a while — it's not like those other natural soaps that disappear in a week. It suds up so well and smells amazing. This is an amazing soap, and you should definitely try it." —cameron

Price: $9.99 (also available in multipacks)

Promising review: "I purchased this for a theme park trip to Florida to keep the sun and rain off me. Over the course of the trip, I used it for both, and it worked well. It is compact with a nice carrying case. The handle could be a bit sturdier. Would definitely repurchase." —Clark2774

Price: $14.99+ (available in 16 colors and double packs)

Promising review: "I had no idea there was such a thing as a wooden pencil highlighter. These exceeded my expectations. The pencil is wood, so one less bit of plastic ends up in a landfill. The 'lead' part of the pencil appears to be a waxy, crayon-like material. It goes on like a dream. Just as useful as a traditional liquid felt-tip marker for highlighting. Because I had it handy, I used one today at work to mark a peg location to install a shelf. This bright highlighter pencil left a nice mark, helping me locate the correct peg hole for the shelf, which wiped off easily from the metal once it was installed. 100% recommend! Definitely will buy again." —M. C. Carrington

Promising review: "I chose the GoPro 13 camera for several reasons. It will stay cool in the sun on the windsurfing beach or snorkeling reef. The camera has more power and features that let me record my experiences in the sky, on land, and in the water, day and night. Recording in slow motion or time lapse is easy, and in conjunction with the Quick app, you can create an awesome video." —George Davis

Promising review: "This might make some of the best, fastest coffee I have ever had. I visited my cousin in Alaska and she used one EVERY day for her coffee. I completely forgot about it until it was time for this camping trip, and I randomly found it on Amazon while searching for camping kettles — I am so glad I did. It is super compact, durable, and easy to use. You can have a real quick cup in 30 seconds, or you can wait a couple of minutes and let the flavors meld; the choice is yours." —Gordon Leonard

Price: $34.96+ (available in two sizes and seven colors)

Promising review: "As a piece to provide some warmth and entertainment to friends or guests outdoors, this is a great product. As someone who once owned a Biolite camp stove, I believed that the only way to efficiently and completely burn wood to fine ash was to use the airflow fan. Well, by golly, Solo Stove has proven me wrong. Fans and electricity have been proven unnecessary. The Solo Stove Mesa burns wood incredibly efficiently. A very solid product overall. I look forward to buying a wood-burning cooking stove from Solo Stove sometime in the future." —William J Blackburn

Price: $89.99+ (available in two sizes and eight colors)

Promising review: "These night-vision goggles have completely exceeded my expectations. The 4K clarity is stunning — whether I'm using them for camping or checking on strange noises around my property at night, the image on the 3-inch HD screen is bright, sharp, and incredibly detailed. It feels like turning night into day. They are intuitive and have become an essential piece of gear for my outdoor adventures." —Bairiyishanjin

Price: $89.98+ (available in four styles)

Promising review: "This works like magic! It's easy to use and makes a beautiful gift from the kids!" —Sj773

Promising reviews: "I had absolutely no idea what I was doing, and this camera made everything so simple! I bought it for my trip to Portugal and could not be happier with the photo quality. The half-frame look really is so unique! Plus, you get double the photos, making film photography a slightly less expensive hobby. 10/10." —Amazon Customer

"I bought this camera for my daughter, and she loves it! She wanted a camera that she could carry around and snap quick, fun pictures in her dorm or outside on campus. She loves getting the pictures developed and the authentic feel of a real picture, and not one on her phone! She loves the color and the light weight. Reasonably priced and a great buy." —Just Jenny

Price: $49.99+ (available in five colors)

Promising review: "This product has been so great for my son! The entire family will join in on the laser tag fun. We've used them both inside and outside; they have a decent range and pretty good battery life. There's nothing to put together; it's just making sure everything is synced before gameplay!" —Samantha Ferguson

Promising review: "These are actually cuter than I expected! They are a tad smaller than some I've seen, but they actually looked great and can hold plenty of cotton swabs and cotton balls in the spare bathrooms. I have mine on a serving tray with a candle and vase, and they look great without taking up too much space!" —tara savage

Price: $9.99 (also available in a set of three or four)

Promising review: "This is one of many transit Stanleys that I have. Take coffee on the go in the morning? Then this is the one for you! It keeps my coffee HOT for hours and keeps me from spilling it on myself or in my car. Easy-clean cup and lid, excellent Stanley quality (as usual), and this is a unique color that you do not see everyone else carrying (Toast)." —K. Meyers

Price: $35 (available in two sizes and 11 colors)

Promising review: "This is a great carry-on bag! It has numerous pockets and storage areas to keep everything organized. I've taken it on three trips to Europe this year, as well as a few domestic trips, and it fits well under most airline seats (unless the seat has a footrest). In those cases, it's easy to fit it in the overhead compartment. On a couple of occasions when airlines requested that carry-on bags be checked at the gate, this bag was OK for me to carry onboard since it's not too large (yet it holds a lot). In an emergency, I was able to fit three days' worth of clothes, sweaters, a jacket, toiletries, shoes, and electronics in this bag because it's so easy to organize in its numerous compartments. It wheels great, too. I've traveled a lot over the years, and this is the best carry-on bag I've found. I bought two of them!" —DM7233

Promising review: "The Fitbit has helped me live a healthier lifestyle. The sleep data holds me accountable to consistent habits, step count motivates me to walk during the work day when I can, heart rate helps me challenge myself at the gym, resting heart rate gives me insight into my overall health, and the activity and food tracker keeps everything I need in one app. The non-subscription option is more than enough for me, which makes the cost attractive. I have worn it day and night, including in the pool, for two years, and it shows no sign of wear and tear yet. Very thin profile." —Amazon Customer
