Promising review: "I love this so much! I have been looking for something for all of the grocery bags I keep! We use these for our bathroom trash bags. This little thing is a awesome. And my kids can easily reach inside and get a bag out! Love it!" —Lindsey Towns

Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in seven finishes).

Or better yet, ditch plastic bags altogether and get yourself a sturdy reusable bag like the standard bag from Baggu for $12 (available in 57 styles). I own the smiley print bag and always get compliments on it during my weekly Trader Joe's runs.

This features seven adjustable dividers, and has soft nonslip feet to ensure everything stays in place!

Promising review: "We have one kitchen drawer and very awkward cabinets in our apartment so organizing was an ever-changing and maddening puzzle. Frustrated with the challenge, I went online came across this product which originally seemed expensive. In my desperation, I decided to try it out anyway. I ended up loving it and bought three more at that price. I'm happy to recommend this product to others in the same situation especially with the price cut. It's very sturdy and takes only seconds to set up!" —Elizabeth Giordano

This can hold up to five pans with vertical installation and four pans with horizontal installation.

Promising review: "This rack is perfect. I put my largest skillet on the bottom and smallest at the top. I did not secure the rack with the screws that came with it, so I can easily move it if I rearrange my pots-and-pans area. Even without securing it to the cabinet, it works perfectly and doesn't shift when I remove a pan. I will be buying another one of these for our cabin. I have already recommended this rack to friends." —CustomerO

Get it from Amazon for $16.87 (available in three finishes).

This comes with two-packs, and each rack can store three lids, AKA six lids total. It comes with three screws for each rack for easy installation.

Promising review: "Rack holds all of my glass lids perfectly. There is ample space when using some of your smaller lids to 'double up' so I am able to hold all of them between the two racks. I have eight lids of varying sizes, from one for a gigantic frying pan, to a tiny saucepan. My lids have the arch style metal bracket, (similar to the ones they show here with the orange handle). I finally have a proper space to keep all the lids organized without them sliding all over the cabinet every time I try to grab just one!" —Kim S.

This thing features six drawers and each one can hold up to 15 tea bags. It has rubber grippers on the bottom to keep the holder in place on your counter!

Promising review: "It allows me to keep track of which tea bags I have and it neatly organizes them. It doesn't take up a lot of room in my cupboard, which is another nice perk." —Judi

Get it from Amazon for $20.28+ (available in two colors).

The drawer holds 36 cups and depending on which carousel size you choose, the carousel can hold anywhere from 24 to 40 cups!

Promising review (for the drawer): "I am so glad I got this. It makes for such great streamlined storage. Keeps things tidy and neat, and also helps me keep track of how many cups I have left to determine whether or not I need to add to my grocery list. It is very sturdy and I fit my machine on top. The top is very durable, hard plastic and does not buckle with the weight of the machine filled with water on top." —tunisianswife

Get them from Amazon: the drawer for $16.39+ (available in nine styles) and the carousel for $19.99+ (available in six sizes and three finishes).

Has an expandable rail, and four adjustable height levels.

Promising review: "I was super impressed with the quality of this item. It did not fit under my sink as I was hoping, but that was my fault as I didn't measure before ordering. But what's great about this item is that it is adjustable in many ways and I was still able to finagle it to meet my needs. You are able to adjust the height of the shelves to three different heights. And then it also adjusts in width to your precise needs. " —staceym

Get it from Amazon for $23.87 (available in three finishes).

Holder is divided into three sections and is BPA- and chlorine-free, food-safe, and made of shatter-resistant plastic. Recommended to clean with mild soap and water.

Promising review: "I have several different types of tupperware and 90% of the lids I have fit into this easily. Now I can stack the actual containers separately without leaving the lids to just sit next to them, taking up space, or standing on their sides, ready to fall out if I move anything. It's been a while since I've heard my husband complain about the Tupperware cabinet in general, so for that reason alone I'm glad I purchased this, LOL." —KB

Get it from Amazon for $13.99.

You can store up to 46 cans and jars of various sizes on this rack! It has six adjustable plastic dividers, and boasts sturdy-construction!

Every house needs one of these!" —Annie

Freeing up cabinet space and having something that can so easily be rinsed off in the sink makes this a for sure buy!" —momonono

Promising review: "I love this product. It is strong and sturdy. I've bought three for my cabinets. And they haven't broke, despite being dropped and stepped on by a 5-year-old who thought it was a good idea to use them to be a ballerina. They are easy to clean and use. I would definitely recommend for spices/medications, or anything kitchen cabinet related. I have one in the bathroom, and under the sink for the cleaning supplies as well, and we love it!" —Kay M.

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in seven colors).

Includes one open tray, one accessory tray with a ring holder, and two pairs of hinges and mounting hardware.

Promising review: "Love this! No more clutter of sponges and stoppers around the sink. We installed these when swapping out the sink. Installation with no sink in place is a breeze; otherwise I can see how it might be tricky. The hinges work well. They were a little stiff at first but loosened up in a day or two. They still close with a little "snap," which one time jettisoned the sponge into the under-sink cabinet — now I know where to look if it ever goes missing again. The trays can be slid off their mounting screws and rinsed out when they get a little dirty from storing the cleaning supplies." —Lisa

Get a set of two from Amazon for $22.99.

Features an adjustable strap that makes it easy to hang from most standard kitchen sink faucets. The drain holes help to prevent water from accumulating inside.

Promising review: "Fantastic solution for sponges. The OXO one that we used to have wouldn't stay attached to the side of the sink. The suction cups got brittle and less functional over time. This thing is great! Hangs perfectly from the faucet and adds a little stylish flair." —C. Osterhout

Get it from Amazon for $8.30.

Get a set of 20 from Amazon for $13.99.

Promising review: "These measuring cups are pretty cool, I like how they snap into each other to save space. They are lightweight and easy to carry. The largest piece has a rubber lining on the bottom as a grip to prevent spills." —Jeff Garcia

Promising review: "I wish I would have gotten these sooner. I bought strawberries for my children, and then I forgot about them. I found them in the back of the refrigerator almost TWO WEEKS later, and they were still good. The real miracle is how long it keeps zucchini. Zucchini starts to get mushy in the crisper drawer after just a few days. Again, these miracle containers have kept it fresh for close to two weeks now. I've kept cut lettuce, cut cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, cucumbers, zucchini, sliced bell peppers, strawberries, blackberries, cut jicama, and carrots in these containers. I've had fantastic results with all of them." —Laura

Features cutlery icons for easy identification. They recommend to wash and dry this by hand!

Promising review: "Yes, this little utensil tray is really that good! I went from using 12 inches of horizontal space in a lovely but huge wooden utensil tray to using about four inches (whatever the width of this godsend is). It stores my butter knives, steak knives, spoons, forks, and a slew of little teaspoons. I'd guess that the max capacity for each slot is about 10 pieces. For example, I fit four butter knives and four steak knives into the first/knife slot easily, with good wiggle room. This is such a great design. Using this tray opened up about half of my 18-inch-wide drawer, which allowed me to decompress the other drawers in my kitchen a bit. I highly recommend this item. It's worth every penny." —Kathleen Cooke

Get it from Amazon for $9.99.

It features eight shelves and is super easy to mount on door hinges.

Promising review: "This is a must-have for any small space. My bathroom has no medicine cabinet, just a mirror, and is pretty small, so storage is a huge deal. My girlfriend came across this item so I figured I would give it a shot being Prime eligible. The finish was flawless. I know it states it needs a two-person install but I put this together and hung it in about an hour by myself with very minimal effort and I'm sure if I did it again it would be significantly less time. This fits soo much stuff — it really is amazing and it does not impede any operation of the door. I can't fully explain how much I recommend this. I'm about to order the mirror version for my bedroom for colognes and little knickknacks to de-clutter the counter tops." —happy shaver

Promising review: "I recently remodeled my kitchen and was looking for something that would maximize my counter space. After researching several different options I chose this one. I am very pleased with this product. The clean and simple design make it nearly invisible, and organizes all my coffee supplies neatly in a convent place. The cost is reasonable and material adequate for small items, but the best thing is how it de-clutters the counter top. I recommend this item without reservation." —Frances I Pizzulo
