50 Amazon Must Haves In 2024
Last Updated on March 12, 2024
As an Amazon Influencer, I’m given insiders access to all the Amazon must haves. Think cool new gadgets, hidden gems, TikTok famous products, and ride-or-die products. These are the hottest-selling products, all of which I have personally tested, own, and love! (I also share a few I didn’t love.) So buckle down the chin strap, make sure the safety harness is pulled snug, and get ready for the ultimate list of the best things found on Amazon that you will immediately want to add to cart. There’s no time to dilly-dally, so let’s dig into the best Amazon finds and viral products.
Table of Contents
Best Of The Best — Amazon Must Haves
I’m going to begin with a bang and jump right into my favorite things on Amazon. I mean, everything in this round-up is a favorite purchase, but these…these are top-tier. Oh and before I forget, if you haven’t visited my Amazon Storefront, be sure to bookmark that, too, because I’m constantly updating it with awesome finds.
1. Ooni Pizza Oven
One of the best things we ever bought was the Ooni pizza oven (we have the wood pellet). It’s used at least twice a month to cook homemade pizzas in under 90 seconds. Yes, you read that right, seconds. The crust is pure perfection and is srsly one of the most enjoyable family nights. (Hot tip: make an extra batch of dough and freeze it.) This is also a great gift idea for Dad.
2. Kasa Smart Plugs
You know I love my Lutron Caseta, but I also love these smart plugs because they’re easy to install, the app is simple to use, and all I have to say is, “Alexa (or hey Google), turn off bedroom lights.” and magic!
3. Fabric Shaver and Lint Remover
This is one of those little gadgets you never knew you needed until you bought it. Not only do I use it on pilling sweaters, but I also use it on my furniture and any upholstered home decor. It’s an easy way to refresh almost any fabric to make it look new again. I highly suggest adding it to your Amazon cart if you don’t own one.
4. Dyson Purifier Cool Smart Air Purifier and Fan
I bought this Dyson air purifier and fan combo a few years ago, and it’s still going strong. This Amazon must-have lives in our bedroom because I need the white noise to sleep, and The Boy has horrendous allergies. My mind still cannot wrap its head around how this high-tech fan works, but it is a fan, and yes, it keeps me cool.
5. Anker Portable Charger For iPhone and Android
While visiting New York for the Better Homes and Gardens Style Maker event, my friend Ashley pulled out this phone charger that juiced up five creators’ phones, and it still had battery life to spare. That’s impressive! I immediately bought two of these wireless portable chargers. They’re perfect for travel, aren’t bulky, and fit in a small purse. Definitely on the Amazon must have list.
6. Reusable Shopping Bags
These reusable shopping bags live in the trunk of my car and keep my groceries upright. They’re durable, easy to carry, hold a lot of stuff, and fold flat for easy storage. If something spills, these bags are also washable. Perfect for Trader Joe’s and the flea market.
7. Peloton Bike
Now that the Peloton is available on Amazon, I’d be remiss not to mention it as an Amazon must have. I purchased one years ago and am still obsessed. Yes, I know there is a recall, and the reviewers are complaining. But my replacement seat arrived and was a simple fix. If you are eyeing one for your home gym, I highly recommend it!.
8. Samsung Frame TV
For years, I have raved about my Samsung Frame television—you know, the super thin, wall-mounted TV that turns into art when it’s not in use. It’s one of the most innovative products on this list and interior designers love styling a room with it, especially if you want to hang a tv over the fireplace mantel. Say goodbye to the big black rectangle on the wall. Since purchasing our first art TV, we have purchased two additional Frames, and I can’t say enough good things about them.

Amazon Must Have Vacuums And Cleaning Products
I’ve tested countless cordless, stick, and robotic vacuums, and because I have favorites, they deserve a dedicated Amazon must haves section. Here’s some intel on the ones I love and which one is on a trial separation.
9. Roborock S7+ Robot Vacuum and Sonic Mop with Self-Empty Dock
She’s a pricy vacuum, but the Roborock is a workhorse robot because it doubles as a mop, and unlike the Narwal, it detects carpet and lifts the mop head, so your rugs stay dry, and there’s no need to lay down barriers. Plus, it has a self-emptying bin. That has always been the game changer for me. As for the phone app, the initial connection took a few tries, but now it works seamlessly. It’s another one of those set-it-and-forget high-tech gadgets.
10. iRobot Roomba j7+ Self-Emptying Robot Vacuum
The Roomba does everything the Yeedi and Roborock do, so there’s not much more I can say about this robot vacuum except that it is the superior choice. If you don’t need the mop and it fits that budget, buy the Roomba. Period. Enough said.
I should mention that the Yeedi Robotic Vacuum was hands-down my favorite robotic vacuum until it broke after 17 months. To boot, since it was over 1 year old, their customer service was less than helpful because they don’t offer repair services or replacement parts. Before purchasing a new one, I asked Yeedi about life expectancy since my 10-year-old Roomba is still going strong. According to the customer service rep, they only last 12-18 months. Buyer beware: you get what you pay for.
11. Shark Navigator Lift-Away Vacuum
If you’re looking for a more affordable, more powerful upright vacuum, this is it! I own two of these vacuums, and it’s never let me down. I should mention that I belong to a Facebook Group of cleaning ladies, and a recent post asked which was better, the Shark or the Meile. The Meile vacuum won in a landslide, but I don’t own it, so I cannot vouch for its superiority…but I do trust this group of expert cleaners. The only downfall to the Meile is the higher price point.
12. Shark WANDVAC System
I love this cordless vacuum! We keep ours in the kitchen and use it daily. Again, the self-emptying bin is a game-changer. The WANDVAC can be used as a handheld for small jobs (perfect for stairs or the car) or floor vacuum for carpets, hardwood, tile, and rugs, and it’s tough on pet hair. It’s the vacuum cleaner you didn’t know you needed. While you’re at it, grab an extra pack of filters.
13. Bissell Little Green Machine
This compact upholstery cleaner is one of the best portable carpet cleaners on the market and will help you keep your couch, carpet, and rugs looking new! I bought mine a long time ago (like 20 years), and only one epic barf episode courtesy of Cooper gave it a run for its money. If you have kids, pets, or a messy significant other, this viral gadget is an Amazon must-have — I mean, 61,000 Amazon reviewers can’t be wrong. Oh, and I should also mention it’s compact size is perfect for anyone short on closet space.
14. Mini Desktop Vacuum Cleaner
This rechargeable mini vacuum cleaner sits on my kitchen counter and is the easiest way to suck up The Boy’s toast crumbs, spilled coffee grounds, and all the dust and dirt that accumulates over the day. This little handheld vacuum is perfect if you have a table with grooves in it or if you eat at your desk.
15. O’Cedar Spin Mop
Is a mop all that special? Ummmm, yes, yes, it is! This is a TikTok made me buy it purchase, and I couldn’t be happier with it; however, I do not use the Tide concoction on my floors. Instead, I use warm water and a few drops of floor cleaner. To work it, dunk the mop in the water, push the peddle down a few times, and mop away the dirt. Pop the mop heads in the washing machine to clean. I love it for cleaning my baseboards.
16. Rubbermaid Reveal Cordless Power Scrubber
If you’ve read the Best Useful Gifts guide, you already know this little power scrubber tool is high on the Amazon must haves list, and I’m fairly certain it also made the Amazon Internet Famous post. It gets into those hard-to-reach areas and cleans grout and fixtures easily. This best-selling cleaning tool does all the scrubbing, so you don’t have to.
17. Duster Sponge Set For Blinds, Baseboards, Vents, And More!
This affordable 4-pack duster helps you easily remove dust and dirt from those hard-to-clean spaces like blinds, window tracks, mirrors, vents, baseboards, cupboards, and more. The best part is they are reusable! Just rinse and repeat! Oh, and did I mention they are under $10 for a set of four?
18. Mi HEPA Air Purifier
Whether you’re cooking something smelly in the kitchen (ie, Cooper frying bacon with garlic powder), own a pet, or have seasonal allergies, the air purifier effectively removes 99.97% of the pollutants in the air you’re breathing. It also runs quietly unless the air is really dirty; then, you might hear the fan kick in. We’ve owned this one for two years now,; the only maintenance is changing the filter. Oh! And you can control it through an app.

Affordable Amazon Must-Have Beauty Products I Love
With the emergence of TikTok, these Amazon finds have gone viral. Here are the best beauty products I’ve found. Added bonus—they’re all pretty affordable!
19. 50+ SPF Sunscreen For The Face (No White Residue)
If you’re looking for a hydrating sunscreen (contains hyaluronic acid) that doesn’t leave a greasy or white residue on your skin, this is it. Its only downfall is that it’s not waterproof, but it’s perfect for the flea market or out on a hike. I use it daily on my face before putting on makeup. This top seller is under $10 and is vegan-certified. Another favorite sunscreen found on Amazon is the Supergoop! Glow Sunscreen. It has a 40 SPF rating, gives your skin a hint of shimmery glow, and boosts hydration with hyaluronic acid, vitamin B5, and niacinamide.
20. Weleda Skin Food Body Cream
Remember when Kanye West started dating that Julia Fox girl after his split with Kim? I somehow landed on her TikTok, and she said her go-to lotion (which also happens to be a favorite celebrity body cream) is this little $15 miracle worker. I’ve also seen it in the apothekas in Europe, so I had to try it, and she’s right. This stuff is freaking awesome and under $20! Even the roughest skin turns soft and smooth. It’s an Amazon must have in my beauty book. Thank you for not gatekeeping Julia!
21. LUMIFY Redness Reliever Eye Drops
Okay, I know eye drops sound like a weird one, but hear me out. I constantly watch makeup how-to TikToks, and every makeup artist and beauty influencer swears by these. I bought them, and they brighten and pop your eyes within minutes — an instant refresher for tired eyes. They are not part of my daily routine, but if I’ve been staring at a screen all day and going out that night, I’ll put a drop in each eye to make my eye bright white.
22. Buttery Soft Yoga Pants
Attention Amazon shoppers! These affordable super soft yoga pants will immediately become part of your daily life because, unlike Lululemon leggings, they have a pocket for your phone! These are mid-calf length and come in 27 different colors. Add these to your shopping list if you’re looking for comfy leggings at a great price. They are a top Amazon must have.
23. Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask
This is another Amazon internet famous beauty product that TikTok made me buy. Is it worth the hype? Ya, I think so. I use it every night, and it’s especially wonderful during the winter months. It’s a thinker lip balm that moisturizes your lips during the night.
24. Insulated Lunch Bag Purse
Many of us are headed back to the office, so pack your lunch in style with this chic-insulated lunch bag! Also, if you’re a nursing momma, this bag is perfect for keeping pumped milk cold.
25. Eyelash Growth Serum
This eyelash serum has over 14,000 positive reviews, and for good reason. It works. I’ve tried them all, and this is the best bang for your buck. Highly recommend especially if you’re trying to regrow stubby lashes after months of lash extensions.
26. Hydrating Serum for Your Face
If you had told me ten years ago that snail secretion would be a viral product in 2024, I would have shouted, “LIAR!” But alas, here we are, wiping snail mucin on our cheeks, and I can state for the record this Korean skincare really does rehydrate your skin and help with fine lines. Also, this top seller has over 60,000 five-star ratings, so I’m not the only one with this opinion.
27. Short Length Press-On Nails
These press-on nails are a game changer because they take less than 10 minutes to apply and can last a full week. The application is no mess because the nails adhere with a sticker, not glue, and they are easy to remove. I love the short length because they have a more natural look.

Amazon Must Have Kitchen Gadgets And Small Appliances
Here are a few affordable kitchen gadgets and a few bougie small appliances as well cuz you know I had to include that nugget ice machine! I freaking love it! Obviously, these gadgets are not life-changing picks, but they do make my life easier…and nicer. To save you some decision-making anxiety, here’s a quick review of the items I think are worth spending money on.
28. Flexible Silicone Kitchen Tool Set
This silicone utensil set is a recent purchase for my kitchen to prevent scratching my new pots and pans (remember when I mentioned my son cooking bacon?) They come in different colors (I purchased the khaki) and have wooden handles. These are a perfect gift idea for new homeowners and graduates.
29. SpaceAid Bag Organizer
I found these handy dandy bag organizers during last year’s Prime Day, and I also grabbed the 3 in 1 wrap organizer for foil and SaranWrap, but I don’t love that one. The cutter is a bit fussy. Yes, I know plastic bags are bad for the environment, but sometimes we use them. This is perfect for organizing the inside of your cabinet to keep the bags from falling out of the boxes. Side note, I’m also a big fan of these bamboo drawer dividers. Use them to organize your kitchen drawers.
30. Champagne Stopper
When it comes to happy hour, I prefer to sip bubbles, but how do you keep it sparkly? My mom bought this champagne stopper for me, and it’ll keep an open bottle of bubbly sparkling for a week. No more wasting a bottle or spending extra on mini splits.
31. Reusable Silicone Food Bags
Check out these silicone reusable food bags if you want a more sustainable option for the dreaded plastic bag. Oh, the best part, they are dishwasher-safe. If you can get your child to bring them home from school, it will save you side eye from the sustainable mom group.
32. SodaStream Sparkling Water Maker
This is one of those kitchen gadgets you don’t know you need until you buy it. Since it was on sale during Prime Day, I immediately added it to my Amazon cart. Cooper is a fan of Waterloo and Bubly, but the child legit will drink a case of sparkling water a day if I let him, so to keep him hydrated and not go broke, the SodaStream works perfectly. You can buy Bubly flavors to add a little sumthin sumthin extra — we like the blackberry and mango the best, but I’m also known to mix the lime and cherry flavors. As far as the carbonation canisters, we order refills directly through SodaStream. Once delivered, we send our empty canisters back. Easy breezy!

Amazon Must Haves For The Kitchen
33. Countertop Nugget Ice Machine
When the ice machine on our refrigerator stopped working, I invested in a nugget ice machine and have zero regrets. We use it daily, and I drink more water because of it. But there are a few things you should know about this little guy. Many Amazon reviews complain about the noise level; yes, it can be loud. However, for me, the crunch of nugget ice is worth it. I moved ours from the wet bar to the laundry room.
HOT TIP! Use the side water tank. Having it full will help keep the noise level down because the water reservoir will not run empty. Also, always use distilled water. If you don’t, the hard water build-up will cause the motor to grind loudly. You must clean it regularly and buy new filters.
34. Glass Rinser For Your Kitchen Sink
I installed this glass rinser in my neighbor Beth’s home; her family is obsessed with it. This particular one by Delta Faucet has a higher price point, but there is a less expensive option here. Both work like the glass rinsers you see bartenders use and get high customer reviews. I kinda want to cut a hole in my new quartz countertop so I can have one too.
35. Vitamix Blender
Years ago, I bought a Vitamix blender, and The Boy thought I was insane for buying a $500 blender, but let me tell you, that thing makes the smoothest smoothies in all the land. It has so much power and truly is the superior blender. BTDubs, it self-cleans. Just turn the dial, add warm water, and a couple of drops of dishwashing soap (Do not use two squirts of Dawn Powerspray, or you’ll have soapy water all over your kitchen—ask me how I know.) Once you use it, you will ask yourself why it took so long to buy it.
36. Kitchen Knife Set
This 6-piece kitchen knife set is one of my most recent purchases on Amazon. It not only looks chic, but it’s also a great space saver for your countertops. The knives are high quality at a great price point, and the holder comes in multiple colors.
The brick fireplace makeover went completely viral, and I had quite a few haters. Checkout this controversial before and after project. .
Amazon Must Haves For The Home
37. Good Quality Curtains and Drapes
These affordable curtains are one of the best sellers on the blog, and surprisingly, they are really good quality considering the low price. Shown above are the blackout velvet curtains in Aztec Gold.

Amazon Home Must Haves
38. Small Hole Repair All-In-One Spackle Kit
This handy dandy spackle kit showed up on my TikTok FYP, and I immediately had to try it. OBSESSED! Squeeze the goo from the tube into the drywall hole, scrape, let it dry, and sand with the cap. It’s freaking genius and is under $10.
39. Instant Drying Sink Organizer
This ultra-absorbent, all-natural stone sink caddy helps keep hard water stains from your countertop. It absorbs liquid instantly and helps prevent the growth of mold and mildew. The stone can easily be removed from the pedestal for easy cleaning and rapidly dries in under 1 minute. This is the perfect solution to keeping your bathroom or kitchen sink tidy and clean.
40. Ditch Your Stanley For This Water Bottle
Don’t hate me, but I tried the Stanley and didn’t love it. If you feel the same way, this Amazon find has a mag-safe handle that doubles as a phone holder and charger! And a special message to all you influencers and content creators reading this…it holds your phone securely and doubles as a tripod. Unlike the Stanley, it fits in the cup holder of my car, plus if it tips over, it doesn’t spill. You can drink directly from the bottle or use the included straw. The only drawback is it comes in only a few colors.
41. Command Sawtooth Picture Hangers
I was initially skeptical of these damage-free wall hooks. Would they hold my artwork? I tested them out over a year ago when I hung a gallery wall, and the frames are still holding strong! This is one of the best products for damage-free walls if you’re a renter.
42. Small Trash Can With Motion Lid
I found this bathroom trash can during last year’s Amazon Prime Day sale and needed a small garbage for the home gym. This worked perfectly, plus it’s pretty to look at. Simply wave your hand over the lid, and presto, it opens! If you buy it, purchase the 2 gallon size. The smaller one is too small.
43. Rechargeable Wall Lights
These battery-operated wall sconces elevate the look of your home, and the best part is they do not need to be hardwired, making them the perfect solution for an apartment living room! These lights are dimmable, and you can change the color to fit your mood. Each bulb lasts up to 50 hours before it needs a recharge. Simply remove the bulb and plug it into a USB charger.
44. Sofa Bed — 4-in-1 Multi-Function Folding Ottoman
This stopped me in my tracks! Is it an ottoman? Is it a chair? Is it a bed? A couch? The answer is yes to all the above! This folding sofa hide-a-bed is perfect for sleepovers, dorm rooms, renters, and small space living, and the adjustable sofa back allows your guest to relax at every angle.
Amazon Must Haves Game Changers For The Home
45. Sleek Socket Ultra Slim Outlet Cover With Extention Cord
This outlet cover was originally made to baby-proof your home (attention new moms), but I love using these behind heavy cabinets that are pushed up against the wall. It makes for a snug fit behind furniture, and you can easily swap out a lamp. This item was recently featured in my Useful Gift Ideas round up!
46. Ivation EZ-Bed Air Mattress
If your kiddo is having a sleepover, this self-inflating bed on wheels is an Amazon must have! It feels like a regular mattress because it inflates at a regular bed height, and you can adjust the firmness. It’s also perfect for camping!
47. Portable TV And Monitor In One
This high-tech viral product is a game-changer for parents! Have a kiddo sick in bed? This portable TV on wheels is an iPad and television in one! The height is adjustable, plus you can rotate the screen, so you can binge Netflix and browse the internet with the touchscreen display. Wheel it into the kitchen to help you cook your favorite recipe, or bring it bedside for a cozy movie night.
48. Pick Up Bricks Toy Vacuum
Where was this Lego vacuum when my kids were little? Srsly, if your kiddos play with Legos and you’re sick of stepping on them, grab one now. It might be the best thing I’ve seen on Amazon ever. At first, I thought, gross, you’ll suck up all the crumbs on the floor, no thank you, but I was wrong. The vacuum holds the Legos on a top shelf and separates the dust and dirt below for easy disposal. Do not sleep on this Amazon must have!
49. Fingerprint Door Lock Smart Knob
Sometimes, there’s a room that is off-limits to little ones. So if you’re having a hard time keeping the curious one from exploring a certain space, install this smart door knob and keep it secure with a fingerprint or passcode.
50. Stackable Water Bottle Organizer
This stackable water bottle organizer is an Amazon best find! My drawers and cupboards were cluttered with water bottles, lids, and straws, and searching for the proper match was a headache. It holds everything from coffee tumblers, travel mugs, shaker bottles, sports cups, insulated bottles, baby bottles, and juice bottles!
