Promising review: “Makes life so much easier. I can’t imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container.” —Amazon Customer

Get it from Amazon for $23.99 (available in four colors).

8. Cabinet pulls that’ll elevate your kitchen style with hardly any effort. Old, dingy handles not cutting it anymore? These will deliver an instant (and affordable) makeover.

Heads up that some reviewers recommend purchasing your own screws instead of using the included ones.

Promising review: “Wow!! That’s my first thought on opening these. I’m in the process of updating my master bathroom and saw these online. Of course, the bargain shopper I am, I checked my local stores. They had packs of 10 for $54…very lightweight. So I was scared of what I was getting here. These are almost 5 ounces each!! Very heavy quality, all individually wrapped with the screws for each. Definitely best quality and best price!!” —Margaret
