The temperature is accurate and cooks evenly. I cooked eggs and sausage in it and they turned out delicious! I’ve also prepared several different skillet meals in this and I’m very impressed! I’m especially excited for the holidays coming up to use this skillet as it will be very handy. Also, cleaning this is a breeze and it’s not too big, so it stores away easy for its next use. Really love this skillet. It’s become one of my favorite kitchen appliances.” —Elwood76

Walmart
Promising review: “I LOVE THESE! I’ve already purchased three! My bed is sort of low to the ground, but they still slide under the bed nicely.

Price: $19.71
29.
A touchless foaming soap dispenser so there’s one less place to transfer germs to. Its soap reservoir has enough for up to 600 washes!
Walmart
Promising review: “One of the coolest soap dispensers ever. The tech is very good; it correctly senses the palm and dispenses the soap quickly. And it’s easy to pour soap in. The quantity of soap dispenses is very good/as recommended by experts and very much required during this time. Being a doctor, I need to wash my hands more often and I would definitely recommend this product. And it has a nice sleek designed look, too. Win win, especially for the cost. Well done.” —Eks
