Scroll-stopping swag
Yup, that’s me during my ’90s big hair infomercial days as the Komputer Tutor, teaching America how to conquer their computers one VHS tape at a time.
Before TikTok and Instagram, there were late-night infomercials, and wow, we bought it all. Remember the ThighMaster? The Flowbee? The Clapper? “Set it and forget it!”
Fast-forward to today, and social media’s the new infomercial.
But for every gem, there are a hundred gadgets that don’t work or break after a week. I sorted through the chaos to find the internet-famous products that actually live up to the hype. Even better? They make fantastic gifts, for others or yourself. You’ve earned it.
📽️ 1. Portable mini projector ($45, 59% off)
Connects with your phone to turn any room into a cinema (even your backyard).
💡 2. Clip-on selfie ring light ($12, 29% off)
Basically, it’s studio lighting that clips to your phone and fits in your pocket.
👕 3. Shirt folding board ($17, 26% off)
Breeze through laundry day. Folds your shirts faster than retailers on Black Friday.
🍝 4. Clip-on pots & pans strainer ($8.50, 29% off)
Silicone grip = no slipping, no mess. Plus, it saves you from washing extra dishes.
🍽️ 5. Microwave splatter cover ($20, 35% off)
This lid shields your microwave from messy spaghetti sauce explosions.
🍓 6. Strawberry slicer cup ($9)
Like a tiny food processor that makes prep way more Instagrammable.

These cuttable strips turn your basic TV setup into a full-blown light show.
📱 8. Scrolling ring remote ($19, 37% off)

🔌 9. USB four-in-one charging cable ($10, 38% off)

🐶 10. Reusable pet hair remover ($25, 11% off)
Got a furry roommate? This roller will put your old sticky one to shame. Warning: oddly satisfying to use.
📈 This list could’ve been twice as long, but I had to stop somewhere. The rest of the trending gear (like a great mini fan that’s almost half off) is waiting for you on my Amazon shop.
