Promising review: "I bought this microwave pasta cooker at a time when I did not have a stove. Even though I have a stove now, I still use this cooker for dinner for myself sometimes because it works so well and quickly! One should be careful to read instructions carefully as you must leave the top off while cooking it. There are lines to indicate how much water to put in the cooker versus the amount of pasta you intend to cook. The pasta comes out very soft and perfectly cooked when instructions are followed. When the pasta is done, the lid is used to drain the cooker of water and works very well. Pasta is the only thing I have cooked in this product, but there are a lot of other things you can cook in it. I highly recommend this to any college student or adult who needs a fast microwave pasta cooker!" —Kelsi Murphy

Promising review: "Best cords ever! Anker PowerLine cables are extremely durable because of their Kevlar fibers. I have had a few of my own for a couple years now and they are as good as they day I bought them. I bought a set of these gold colored cables for a friend of mine and she absolutely loves them. I know these will hold up to her every day wear and tear because she is pretty rough on her cords. Many a time I would look down at the charging cord in her vehicle and see a bulging white Apple lightning cable frayed with wires sticking out and think oh my this girl needs some Anker PowerLine cables in her life. Now her other family members want some. She couldn't be happier." —Research Obsessed

Promising review: "I got this for my mom after my parents re-did their bathroom, and she LOVES it. It's a cute and practical bathroom accessory and the wires on each side expand to fit the size of any bathtub. Also love how you can fit a wine glass in it and it won't spill into your bath. My mom has had this for a while now and it hasn't shown any wear or water damage throughout many baths." —Leia V.

These are a must have if you're tired of rubbing your face raw every night with washcloths or multiple makeup remover wipes like I used to!" —Ashley

Promising review: "I was very hesitant to buy this at first because I thought to myself, 'How lazy can you be?' But now, I don't regret it one bit. As long as you don't abuse watching videos on your phone all day long, it's a great tool to just basically have your hands free to do other things like homework or fall asleep in bed watching a quick movie without being in awkward positions. Product is sturdy and has great build. Two thumbs up!" —Eric Parentela

Promising review: "I often take 20-30 minute naps during the day to refresh myself and this thing is a godsend. It blocks out all light so I can sleep on the bus or the train, but it doesn't block out all sound so I still know when someone's trying to rob me. We have couches at my office, but there's no pillows on them (probably to discourage sleeping). So I just whip this puppy out and BAM, instant pillow. I find it difficult to sleep on planes too, but the wrap-a-nap makes a sort of envelope around your head to block out screaming kids, sunlight from people who leave window shades up, and the person next to you who uselessly has their light on while watching TV. Why you need a light while you're watching TV? I used to have a sleep mask and ear things and a neck pillow, but I got rid of all that crap and now I just carry this. Way easier." —Phil Gran

Promising review: "I'm not sure why, but I was expecting a big clunky and heavy appliance that would soon turn into hate chopping. Imagine my relief when I received a nifty little box perfect handheld size and good quality too! There are two sizes to pick from so you can do smaller vegetables for Pico de Gallo, or do potatoes for hash browns, vegetables for stir fry, possibilities are endless really. I love the not so little container that holds everything as well. You can easily chop in the morning, keep everything neatly in the container for minimal dishes,run errands and then come back and finish dinner. Easy peasy." —D. Smith

Promising review: "So simple. So perfect. My pinky fingers are no longer cramped from supporting my phone. I no longer drop my phone on my face in bed. I can carry other stuff and just loop this baby around the back of my hand. It is LITERALLY THE BEST! And the adhesive is incredible when used on the hard plastic of my Otter Box case." —Hannah
