"I have two German Shepherds, which equals a lot of fur, therefore we have four Roombas. Yes, four," said one loyal shopper. "This one does seem to get stuck under furniture more than the other two. However, it gets over things better, runs quieter and vacuums both the carpet and hardwood just as well if not better. So, I bought a second one. I highly recommend it. I have all four scheduled to run every day, they work well with Alexa and I truly have no complaints. If I needed a fifth roomba I would 100% buy a third of this model."

One of the best things about autumn is curling up with a book (no shame in a TV show, either!), a hot beverage and a cozy blanket. This shaggy throw has one fleecy side and one made of faux fur for an impossibly plush feel that you'll want to stay wrapped up in for hours on end. It comes in many colors, but this burnt orange is particularly fitting for the season. The price is right at $21 — just about as low as we've seen it all year.
Give your jack-o-lanterns an eerie glow — without creating a fire hazard! These flickering LED lights provide a candle-like effect, and they even come with a remote for dimming or brightening. There's also a timer function so you can control how long they stay lit, and once spooky season is over, you can place them in candle holders to give your home a cozy ambience. Prime members can snag 'em for $10 (we've yet to see them dip lower than that).
With magnetic backs that make them immensely easy to install, these lights can go practically anywhere. They also have three power modes: on, off and motion sensing.
Don't want a bulky roll of paper towels taking up precious real estate on your counter? Keep it tucked out of the way with this No. 1 bestseller.

Under-cabinet lighting is a fantastic kitchen upgrade; it's perfect for when you want a midnight snack or are getting breakfast started before your eyes are completely open. These lights can detect motion up to 10 feet away and have 30 LEDs that produce a warm light up to 200 lumens — more than enough to see by, but without that "cold" quality that fluorescent lighting has.
They're powered by a 1,000mAh battery that can recharged through a USB cable. One charge will yield about three hours of continuous use, or an estimated three to four weeks in motion-sensing mode. They can also work as stairway lights; you could even rig one up inside your car's trunk.
The built-in magnets make these easy to install — they'll attach to practically any metal surface. If you don't have metal in your cabinets, the included adhesive tape makes for press-and-play installation.
When over 22,000 people rely on a product to help navigate around their home, we start to wonder what we're missing.
Ease of mounting + long life = happy customers. "I installed one in my kitchen pantry and one in the utility closet," shared one homeowner. "I am in my pantry on a daily basis and I have only had to charge the light one time in the past 8 months. I have not had to charge the utility closet light to date. I have both lights set on the motion sensor setting, and they work exactly as expected. My takeaway after owning for 8 months: Easy installation, fast charging, bright light, long battery life and great adhesion."
Another fan raved about how quickly these changed their kitchen's vibe: "Instantly enhanced the ambiance of my kitchen. I love not having to use the bright overhead lights, and I love that these are rechargeable and detachable. Great value for the price. Very easy 'install' (because it's like a sticker). Cannot recommend these lights more."
One couple said these lights helped light up their workspace: "We needed more light for each of our desks, and these are perfect."
Most users experienced no trouble, but one cautioned to keep the included charger on-hand. "These lights were a great purchase. ... At night when my dog walks into the kitchen, the cabinet light activates right away," said one shopper. "The only downside is that, as far as I can tell, you have to use the USB-C charging cable that comes with the lights. I tried using another USB C charger and it wouldn’t take a charge. All in all, I’m still very pleased with the product."
This user warned that placement is important. "My only complaint is that they are STICKY. Super-stuck to the wall, so make sure you place them correctly."
Psst: Here's another easy-install kitchen find:
