The waterproof material is also easy to wipe clean.

"My husband and I are very picky about our pillows, and we are pleasantly surprised at how comfortable these are," said one five-star fan. "We are both side sleepers, and these have helped both of us have better nights of sleep. They support our necks without feeling like we are too propped up, and they offer enough give to help feel like our necks are being cradled. I'm glad I found these."
Handy humans, this one's for you: With a powerful drill and impact driver in this set, you'll finally be able to cross all those home-improvement tasks off your list. The compact, lightweight design makes them easy to use, and the best part? No cords!

A queen mattress for under $200? No, you're not dreaming! But this isn't just any mattress. It's topped with gel memory foam to help banish those pesky night sweats — and speaking of sweating, green tea and purified charcoal infusions keep things nice and fresh. The medium-firm feel strikes just the right balance between comfortable and supportive, and at an insane $148, this is as low as it's ever been.
Prefer sipping through a straw? Meet the coveted Stanley cup. These bad boys rarely go on sale (they don't really need to), but this one happens to be marked down to a record low. It's got a built-in straw and keeps cold drinks cold for up to nine hours (40 hours if they're iced). Plus, its tapered bottom will fit right in your car's cup holder.
These floor mat essentials are triangle-shaped to fit corners, and they couldn't be easier to use. Just remove the double-sided adhesive covers, stick them onto your rugs (or kitchen mats!) and press them to the floor. Their main purpose might be preventing your rugs from sliding around, but they'll also keep those stubborn corners that like to curl up nice and flat.
"My rugs were flying all around from my wild dogs and kids," shared a grateful parent. "I can't believe how well this product works. My 5'x7' rugs stay perfectly in place without moving at all. I will definitely be buying more of these for other rugs."
If you enjoy cooking up a storm, having a soft landing pad for your feet is essential — and this one has thousands of perfect ratings to back it up. The black mat is currently almost 40% off, which our price trackers say is about as low as it's been since 2021. The other colors are marked down as well, though they cost a bit more.
The KitchenClouds Anti-Fatigue Kitchen Mat is the savior your sore dogs have been barking for, but maybe you never knew such a thing existed. Even if you wear slippers at home, cushioned anti-fatigue mats double down on protection. This gem is ideal for anyone with arthritis, fibromyalgia, herniated discs, tendonitis, foot issues or any stress-induced chronic pain. Sit at a desk all day and then deal with lower back pain when it's time to make dinner? Feel your joints whimper in distress while you prep your morning coffee? It can help with that too!
The mat has a diamond-shaped design on the bottom for traction and a beveled edge that helps prevent tripping, reducing the risk of accidents. This spongy mat doesn't just belong in the kitchen, either — order a few for the laundry room, garage, home office or any other areas where you tend to stand for long periods. They come in lengths ranging from 28 to 108 inches.
Amazon customers give this mat high scores when it comes to comfort, versatility and ease of cleaning.
One of over 12,000 five-star fans called the mat "better than insoles," adding: "I do a lot of meal prepping for the week on Sundays, so I am on my feet in the kitchen for eight to 10 hours a day ... I used to wear my gym shoes with cushioned support when I was cooking for long periods, but even then the resulting back pain was on another level. These mats are a complete game-changer. ... I could stand on these mats for hours and still be comfortable."
"It's like walking on a cloud," gushed another satisfied shopper. "They are plastic-coated, so all you have to do to clean them is vacuum and/or wipe them down with an all-purpose cleaner. That was a huge plus for me because keeping kitchen mats clean is my personal nightmare."
A third described it as being "useful for other areas," explaining: "My poor elderly dog has arthritis, so standing still for long periods can be painful. I bought a couple of these ... to put next to his food table for him to be able to have some comfort while eating. They are so springy and comfortable that I wish I could line my whole house with them so we can all walk in comfort."
While the mats do have grippy backing, some reviewers said they still experienced slippage. "The only con for these mats is that they will slide on different types of floors," wrote one fan. "They don't slide on bathroom floors or the hardwood floors but do slide all over our kitchen flooring, which is ceramic tile. Not sure what the difference is, but to be safe we added nonslip padding under the ones in the kitchen." (Keep scrolling for one option.)
"I do wish it came in other patterns and colors," admitted a final fan, "but the comfort is great!"
