"She Looks Fabulous, From a Distance..." Jane Fonda, 86, Wows in Cannes but Everyone Is Noticing the Same Thing

When your favorite jeans don’t fit in the waist, your garbage disposal has got a terrible odor, and your laundry gets all bundled up in the washing machine and comes out wet and wrinkled, it may seem like your day is already ruined. But with Amazon, these and other pesky little problems can be solved in the blink of an eye, and these 10 amazing inventions will help you — quickly and stress-free.
Promising review: It’s a lifesaver. I am one of those people who, unfortunately, gets food that slips down the side of cabinets by the cooker. These have been fantastic in keeping food and other substances from escaping the pot and making a break for freedom in the dark crevices no one can get to unless pulling out every heavy appliance in the room. Personally, I would’ve liked them to be in white to go with my kitchen better, but they still do the job, so I’m not complaining. @avidread17
Promising review: I never thought anything beyond water and a squirt of dish soap were needed to clean the disposal until I got this product. Even after my old way of cleaning there was always a smell, and for some reason gnats and fruit flies still called that crevice home. Then I used a packet and the smell and flies were gone! This is a great product to add to my cleaning rotation, and it ensures I don’t scare off guests with some gnarly smells emanating from my garbage disposal. @Cynthia T
Promising review: Wow! It’s easy to use, and it brings back the sparkle! I wish I had done this earlier — I hadn’t really realized how dull my Texas Star Topaz had gotten until I saw the difference.
It’s incredible! I had forgotten how sparkly it could be. Also, this took about one minute to do. It’s a definite winner. @amberdallas33
Promising review: I don’t think I have ever left an Amazon review, but this product is sensational. It’s affordable, easy to use, and transformational! The grout in my bathroom had previously been painted over (poorly) by someone else, who also left streaks on the tiles. This pen, however, glides neatly along the grout. I barely had to wipe any residue.
To get started, I shook the pen and then gently pressed the nib into a paper towel. I would repeat that for every tile edge. I didn’t need to press hard at all, so I didn’t experience any wearing down of the nib. It looks like I’ve had the grout professionally redone, and I’m so pleased, I’m going to do my kitchen next! @Hanna
Promising review: I’m really impressed with this. It totally changed the way my plain white desk looks. I found it pretty easy to use and apply, however, you do have to be accurate to make it perfect! The air bumps are easy to get rid of, so I would absolutely recommend this to anyone. @LucyLucy1
Promising review: They stick well and provide protection. There’s no chance my 1-year-old will pull these off, they are stuck firm. He also tries to chew them, but they don’t appear to break up. He fell back on one and it definitely saved a nasty injury.
I don’t know what they will be like to remove, but I imagine if you slowly peel them back with some heat they shouldn’t cause damage. I like that these are big so that if one did somehow come off, it shouldn’t be a choking hazard. @Amywaimy
Promising review: It’s quite a nifty little tool. I stumbled upon this idea from YouTube and thought, why not. My little 6-year-old is slim for her age, and the waists on her jeans are big. A belt would keep up a pair of jeans better, but it would have to be uncomfortably tight, and the overlap would be so obvious.
These are perfect if the jeans are just a little too big around the waist, and unlike a belt, these seem unnoticeable. At that price, I recommend keeping a pack in your sewing kit or your belt drawer. I’m happy with the purchase. They arrive in a pack with colored variations, so you can match them with your jeans. @Straight Beard
Promising review: I’m impressed. I wasn’t sure if these would do the same job as color catchers, but I’m impressed they seem to be doing great. I have one I use for lights and one for darks just in case. Both of them are discolored now, so I take it they are doing their job.
The box has tick boxes, so you can count the 30 washes they are good for. I’m probably about halfway through on both and will push them a bit further to see how they do. @C Whitfield
Promising review: I love this invention. It took me a while to get the hang of this, but now that I have it, I love it. When I first got the top-loading washer, I was always surprised that the sheets would get so tangled up in the wash. Then I stumbled upon this and bought it immediately.
Now, my sheets come out of the washer and dryer, NOT tangled up. I highly recommend this for anyone with a top-loading washer. @mm4peace
