If You Like Awesome Sh*t, You'll Love These Weird Things That Are Actually Genius

We only recommend products we love and that we think you will, too. We may receive a portion of sales from products purchased from this article, which was written by our Commerce team.

I love those random little online finds that are weird but definitely awesome and seriously helpful — all at the same time. They’re pretty rare. They’re also almost impossible to search for. How would you know to search for machine-washable refrigerator handle covers? So smart, but how would I ever think to Google that? It’s almost like the universe only wants us to stumble on them occasionally (if we’re lucky).

So, if you like awesome sh*t, you’ll love this list that’s full of genius things.

Maybe you recently took up gardening. If so, there’s a garden kneeler on the list that has three helpful functions that make gardening more comfortable. It keeps your jeans clean when you kneel on it, allows you to sit on it like a bench, and stores all of your go-to tools

Or maybe you’re really leaning into that late-night screen time, and you need easy coffee. This list has multiple coffee products that are genius. There’s a glass cold brew coffee maker with a two-level silicone air-tight seal. But if you constantly forget to make it the night before, the beverage chiller might be a better option. It hangs out in your freezer next to the ice trays and cools your hot drip coffee down in under 60 seconds.

Those weird and genius products don’t have to be rare finds anymore. Because they’re all in one easy list — finally.
