Believe The Reviewers’ Hype, These 38 Amazon Products Are That Good
Whether you're buying products on Amazon, or buying them from — come to think of it, who really buys anything that's not from Amazon these days? The allure of free two-day shipping is usually too much to draw me away, and the fact that Amazon has thousands of highly reviewed products from trusted buyers doesn't hurt either.
Generally you want to double-check that the purchase you're about to make is a smart one, or at least not something you're going to wind up having to pay to ship back — and sometimes that requires a little bit of research on your end. Luckily, all that means is a little deep dive into the reviews section. You wouldn't think that the electric toothbrush in here could really remove up to 300 percent more plaque than a regular manual toothbrush, but the 2,500 positive four- and five-star reviews would beg to differ. And as for the seemingly questionable claim that this pain-relieving foam works instantly? Well, there are over 1,000 reviewers who say otherwise.
A little bit of skepticism goes a long way when shopping online, but truly —who needs it when you've got thousands of Amazon products with five-star reviews to help you out instead?
01The Spoonula That Won't Melt Or Warp While You're Cooking
Kitchen utensils made from plastic can warp over time, but if your tools are made from silicone it'll never be a problem. Not only is the StarPack Home premium silicone spoonula made from antibacterial and heat-resistant silicone, but because silicone is soft (yet super durable at the same time) you'll never accidentally scratch your pans while cooking. And because life is always better when it's easy, this spoonula is completely dishwasher-safe.

03The Miniature Flashlight That's Incredibly Powerful For Its Size
You wouldn't normally expect a miniature flashlight to be super bright, but that's exactly what the Hatori mini flashlight is — boasting 500 lumens of light, this handy flashlight can easily be tossed into your backpack or pocket for any situation, or you could even clip it to your belt for safekeeping. And while it is small, you won't have to worry about it breaking as this flashlight is skid-proof, abrasion-resistant, and waterproof to boot.
04A Cleaning Cloth That Replaces Up To 15 Rolls Of Paper Towels
Paper towels may be convenient, but they're also super wasteful and a pretty big waste of money when you could be cleaning with a reusable cloth that replaces up to 15 rolls of paper towels like the Skoy eco-friendly cleaning cloth instead. These cloths are made from cotton and cellulose, and are 100 percent biodegradable — making them more environmentally friendly than regular towels, but just as effective.

Paying for a professional massage can quickly become an expensive experience, but with The Pressure Positive Company original jacknobbler you can get the same relief in the comfort of your own home.

Each pillow is hypoallergenic, and the ventilated design allows air to circulate throughout so that you don't become overheated on hot summer nights.
08A Container For Dry Goods With Its Own Built-In Leveler
You could keep dirtying up a knife to level off your measured dry goods, or you could keep your ingredients in the Progressive flour keeper and use its built-in leveler to ensure that all your measurements are accurate.

12A Shampoo That Uses Tea Tree Oil To Promote Hair Growth
Even though it helps promote fast hair growth and regrowth, the Maple Holistics tea tree oil shampoo can do so much more — use it to fight dandruff and itchy flaky scalps, or use it as a natural and chemical-free way to eradicate lice. Not only is the formula free from any sulfates, but it even works to hydrate the scalp and lock in moisture so that your hair is left looking rejuvenated and feeling fresh. One reviewer writes: "I can go 3 days without washing my hair and my dandruff is all but gone. My hair looks healthy, shiny, and Instagram worthy."
13The Salad Dressing Shaker With A Leak-Proof Seal

And because it's super lightweight, this flat iron is a great option to use while traveling.
17The Phone Mount For Your Car That Can Rotate A Full 360 Degrees
Whereas other car phone mounts can only swivel from left to right, the Caseco magnetic car phone mount can rotate a full 360-degrees so that you can get the perfect viewing angle while driving.

22A Heating Wrap That Soothes Achy Joints And Muscles
Whereas most heating pads simply hold heat, the My Heating Pad multi-purpose wrap takes it a step further by applying a gentle 3 pounds of pressure wherever you apply it, helping to quickly soothe achy muscles, joints, and tension faster than you would experience with solely heat. "This thing has worked wonders for my back pain," one Amazon reviewer with arthritis writes. "It helps loosen and relax my muscles, making the pain more tolerable."
23An Over-The-Door Pantry Perfect For Organizing Any Kitchen
