The world is hard enough as it is. There's no need to make it harder! And with gadgets like these, your life can be a lot easier. One of my favorite things to do is look through Amazon for gadgets and tools that will make your everyday life that much simpler. Whether you're trying to simplify your morning routine (in which case I recommend this awesome toothbrush holder) or just hoping to remove extra steps at meal time (if so, you've got to have this awesome strainer), this list is full of amazing items that will help you work smarter, not harder.

Avoid Gross Sponges

Sponges can get really gross, really quickly. It makes sense - they sit on your kitchen sink with all the soap and water just collecting in them. But this sponge holder not only prevents that mess, it also makes squirting soap even easier because it's a soap dispenser, too!

The Ultimate Tool for Morning Routines

I'm in love with this bathroom gadget! It's honestly changed up my morning routine in the best way. I can keep everything right where I need it so I don't have to sleepily stumble around for it and it even puts the toothpaste on my toothbrush for me!

Glide Through Tangles

They have designed detangling brushes to make your daily routines much easier, with no torn hair and no pulled scalps, and I recommend them to anyone that suffers from a tender head or to anyone with kids. The teeth on this allow for an easy and comfortable brushing for anyone's head.

Sleep Better so You Can Work Smarter

It's hard to "work smarter, not harder" when you haven't had a good night's sleep, and a good night's sleep starts with an amazing, high-quality pillow like this one. This pillow is a super comfy, gel-pillow designed to be allergy friendly and made for sleepers of any kind!

Charge It All

This charging pad allows you to get all of your devices juiced up at once. There's no need to worry about six different cables that crowd your counter or bedside table when you've got this gadget. It easily, wirelessly, charges up all your devices for the day ahead.

You can complete every step of the bread-making process with this amazing gadget. No need to dirty up the entire kitchen as you go through bowl after bowl. This gives you the room to mix, need, and even bake in a single dish! Go ahead- you can be impressed, because it's pretty amazing.

Quit cutting your pizza with large knives! It doesn't work as effectively as a pizza wheel, and with pizza wheels as cool as this one, there's no reason not to have one! This bad boy looks like a mini circular saw and is such a fun way to eat the most fun food around.

Always Have a Warm Cup

As someone that works at a desk, I know how easy it is to set your coffee down while you complete an email and wind up picking it up, an hour later, only to find it's stone cold. This warming plate is the perfect size for your coffee cup so you can have a warm cup anytime you want.

Hands-Free, Battery Operated

What's smarter than a gadget that's both hands-free and battery operated? This heating pad is an easy way to get heat right where you need it so you can enjoy some sweet relief from whatever's ailing you, and it's discreet, so you can even wear it in a meeting if you need.

Keep Your Cutlery Organized

We all know that the cutlery drawer can easily become a disaster if you don't have the right drawer organizer. Fortunately, this is exactly that. This organizer keeps everything right where you want it in an easy-to-grab way so you don't have to scramble around looking for what you need.

Fight Pet Odor

Pets come with odor. And messes. There are just no two ways around it, and it's not easy to manage those messes on your own. Enter: Angry Orange. It's designed to get deep into the fibers of your textiles and all over your floors to pull out that scent and keep it out!

Keep Your Hoses Wrapped Up

I can't tell you how many times I've tripped over a hose that someone left unraveled in my yard after watering plants or washing cars. And I curse. Every. Time. This awesome wrapping bungee manages your hoses and cords so they're out from under feet and no longer a hazard.

No More Worrying About Lost Keys

It feels like everything's "smart" now, but it's because those "smart" devices really make our lives a ton easier and this keyless deadbolt is no different. You can keep your keys safely lost in the bottom of your bag with this; you just need to remember your code.

You Get a Label, and YOU Get a Label!

Be the Oprah of labels with this fun gadget. I've always wanted a label maker, and I recently let myself have this one. It's such a fun and organized way to keep everything in my life easily noticeable and right where it belongs. PSA: I do not recommend labeling your cats. They won't like it.

Use and Reuse This Amazing Notebook

This is one of the coolest things my mom has ever shown me, and she's the one that introduced me to Nirvana, so that's saying something. This notebook allows you to write down whatever's in your head, scan it into your phone, wipe it away, and start all over again.

Easy Eggs, but Not Eggs Over Easy

Cooking eggs is a time-consuming process, and it's one that I have yet to perfect. I leave them on the stove for far too long or not for long enough and then I've got runny boiled eggs. It's no good! This egg cooker does it perfectly, no matter how you like them, every time.

Make Every Plug Smarter

Smart homes are great, but if you're like me and you live in an older house, they tend to be less compatible with the new devices. These smart plugs, however, can make any home a smart home and you can control the lights and devices you plug into them with the touch of a button.

Keep an Eye on Your Things

I leave all of my things everywhere. And I know I'm not alone in this. If you have a tendency to forget where you put your keys, or you're a traveler that can't ever remember what their suitcase looks like, this smart tag is for you! You can keep tabs on whatever you need as long as you attach this bad boy.

You Can Finally Display Your Favorite Photos

Our world today allows us to take photos of anything, anywhere, which is amazing! But because we can take them so easily, we often forget that we've got to print them out if we want to see them around us. Fortunately for those of us with no time to run to the pharmacy for prints, this electronic frame allows you to display hundreds of your favorite photos on rotation.

Pasta Dinner Without the Burn Risk

Okay, there's still a slight burn risk if you're not paying attention and touch the pot or accidentally knock it over, but with this strap-and-strain gadget, you don't have to worry about potentially scalding water making its way onto your delicate hands as you're straining into a colander.

Take the Guess Work Out of Dishes

Doing the dishes can be a dangerous game in my household. When you open the dishwasher, you never know if it's going to be clean or dirty because we pre-rinse all our dishes. Fortunately, my husband found this awesome dishwasher magnet and there's no more confusion so we can put up our dishes, worry-free.

Properly Equip Your Car

Listen, we all know there's nothing quite as frustrating (or dangerous) as trying to maneuver your vehicle with your wrist while you're dipping your chicken nugget into a dip sauce. This dip clip, though? Life. Changer. Now you can drive with one hand and safely dip with the other.

No One Wants to Find Your Hair in the Drain

Hair in the drain is an icky, but inevitable, part of life. But it doesn't have to be a part of life that destroys our plumbing! Get yourself this hair catcher so you can easily remove those annoying strands you shed in the shower and save yourself some heartache when you get the plumber's bill.

A stylus, a pen, a ruler, a level, a Phillips-head screwdriver, and a flathead screwdriver all in a cute little pen form. Need I say more? Well, I will anyway, because this is the perfect gadget for making your life easy with little effort. Plus, it makes an amazing gift for dad!

Get the Perfect Ice

Sure, crushed ice is great because you can make your kiddos some delicious snow cones, but it's also great because it's fun to crunch without doing damage to your teeth, and that's what's really important! As a lifelong ice cruncher, this ice crusher is my favorite - it does the teeth-wearing part for me so I can just enjoy.

Keep Your Cords Out of Sight

I love these things! Not only do they conceal my ugly-looking outlets, they also help to conceal cords. How, you ask? Because it's also an extension cord that allows you to keep those cords tucked back and out of sight while still plugging in everything you need to charge or boot up.

Keep it Clean

As I like to say, "a messy car is a stressy car," which might not make sense... if you usually have a clean vehicle. If you're like me and your car tends to turn into a trash can, you get it! And you need this car trash can so you can keep those trash bits right where you want them and can take them out all at once when you need to.

Give Those Piggies Some Love

Your feet do all the hard work for you, every day when you think about it. You stand on them all the time; they keep you up and moving. They do the most! And these foot peel masks give them the love they deserve to have.

Embrace a Bright Smile

You've gotta love a bright white smile, but it's not easy to get, that's for sure! This teeth whitening set gives you the ability to brighten your smile at home without breaking the bank with expensive dental treatments. Plus, you can do this anytime that fits your schedule.

Foggy windows are no one's friend. They can make driving a dangerous endeavor in the best of conditions. Not to mention, they look bad. This sponge allows you to effectively clean off the film of fog that can sometimes gather on your windshield so you can drive with clear vision.

Never Lose Your Measuring Spoons

It can be a little challenging to keep up with those little measuring spoons. They just tend to fall into the cracks of drawers, but this set is magnetic! They all stick together so you can keep up with them no matter what drawer they wind up being stuffed into.

The Headphones for Anytime

Headphones in a headband? Revolutionary! No more irritating pieces digging into your ears or the side of your head, this headband is soft and maneuverable so you can sleep with them on or you can wear it running and keep sweat out of your eyes and avoid those little ear buds falling out of your ears.

Jar Opening, Made Easy

Jar opening is the bane of my existence. I am a strong woman who doesn't need a man to help her with anything! Except, perhaps, opening jars. Except this jar opener that attaches to the underside of my cabinet allows me to do it all on my own - no silly man needed.

Keep Your Acne at Bay

Acne comes for us all at one point or another, and for some of us it just won't leave us alone, but we don't have to just deal with annoying spots. Especially not with these amazing spot dots that allow you to pull out those nasty impurities without poking and prodding at your delicate skin.

You Need This Fancy Shaker Set

Enjoy luxury with this awesome shaker set. Your salt and pepper in gorgeous containers that are electric (battery operated) so you don't have to turn your wrist even a bit to get those good flavors out and onto your meals. This makes an especially great gift for a housewarming party!

This Veggie Chopper Can Spiral, Too!

I use this vegetable chopper so many times a week, I'm not sure how I ever lived without it. It can do a small dice for onions, a large one for homemade french fries, spirals for noodle-izing veggies so my kids will eat them, and ribbons for a presentation that looks as good as it tastes. Nearly 54,000 rave reviews can't be wrong!

Bamboo Cutting Boards That Are Gentle on Knives

So many things to love about this set of three extra-strong bamboo cutting boards! They're a greener alternative to plastic, easy to clean, and attractive enough to use as an impromptu charcuterie board. My husband is a fanatic about maintaining razor-sharp knives and he hasn't had to sharpen that much since we switched to bamboo.

Cooling Face Masks Are Essential to Anyone's Wellbeing

I call this my emotional support cooling face mask because it really is that important. It immediately de-puffs my morning face, soothes migraine headaches I get from looking at a computer screen all day every day, and helps with sinus pressure from colds and seasonal allergies. It also feels ah-ma-zing when you pop it on right after an intense workout session.

These Silicone Spatulas Are Totally Versatile

Think silicone spatulas are just for baking? Think again - this fab four pack of various sizes does everything from scraping the bottom of the peanut butter jar to making scrambled eggs. Four cheery colors to brighten up your kitchen and over 19,700 rave reviews mean you can't go wrong.
