Dogs barking? A deep-kneading foot massage might be in order, and being able to get one at home can make it part of your daily self-care routine. This foot massager offers three knead levels and three squeeze intensities for a customizable massage. It has already helped over 20,000 five-star fans relax.

“This thing is seriously unreal,” reported a rave reviewer. “I really wasn’t expecting it to be able to make it seem like you’re getting a real foot massage, but this is the closest thing I think you could ever get to the real thing. I’m using it right now while I’m working. I’ve had guests use it when they come over as well and no one wants to take their feet out of there and let someone else try it as it just feels so good.”

This Shark vac cleans the way you want it to clean, whenever you want it to clean. Program it to tackle your entire home in one fell swoop every Saturday morning or order it to clean the living room tonight and the bedrooms tomorrow. You set its schedule using either the SharkClean app, Amazon Alexa or Google Home, then sit back and let the smart disc do its thing.

“I was nervous buying one of these, but in the end it was WORTH EVERY PENNY!” wrote an excited shopper. “I have three animals and dark floors so the fur was taking over the house. I don’t have to vacuum every day now. This Shark does it for me! I love that it will map out the whole house for me, and the best part it leaves the lines on the carpet that make it look professionally clean!”

These popular buds have more than 12,000 five-star reviews, feature the latest in Bluetooth technology for seamless pairing and consistent audio quality, and can be controlled with just a tap of your finger. Right now, they’re over 50% off, down to just $18.

“I purchased these earbuds as a replacement for a set that didn’t hold up,” shared a five-star fan. “The sound from these is far superior. My phone calls are easier because the mic and noise cancellation are extraordinary! I am getting long periods of listening after short periods of charging. Now my husband wants a pair!”

If you haven’t yet experienced the freedom of a wireless cellphone charger, this deal’s for you! Most of them sit flat on your desk so you have to crane your neck to look at it, but the INIU Wireless Charger does double-duty as a phone stand, so you can just glance over at it when you get an alert. The brand is a favorite among Amazon shoppers — this model has over 17,000 five-star fans.

“My iPhone stopped accepting a charge from a fire cable a few months back, so I bought many wireless chargers to put around the house,” shared a happy shopper. “This one is by far the best! It charges quickly and you never have to guess whether it’s on the charger properly, as it always seems to line up for charges. The upright position makes it easy to see if you were sitting on the couch with the phone by your side on a table.”

Let’s face it. Some nights it’s tough to fall (and stay) asleep. Whether you’ve had too many cups of coffee or took in too many episodes of your favorite shows, it can be hard to wind down at night. But having a good pillow helps. Right now, you can score these bestsellers from Cozsinoor — they have just the right balance of firmness and softness to help you drift off to sleep. Did we mention they also help to keep you cool?

“From the moment I laid my head on it, I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud,” a rested reviewer shared. “The plushness and support are just perfect, and I wake up feeling refreshed and free from any neck pain. The quality of the materials used is evident, and it’s held up wonderfully. I highly recommend this pillow to anyone in search of a restful night’s sleep. It’s a true five-star product!”

If you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $25 or more.)
