Whether you're hunting for the perfect gift, upgrading kitchen appliances or simply treating yourself to everyone's latest TikTok obsession, Amazon's best sellers section is a great place to start. But with so many options available, online shopping — particularly on Amazon — might feel overwhelming. To simplify the process, we've combed through each product category to bring you a curated list of the best things to buy on Amazon right now.

First, we only considered items that earned countless five-star ratings and rave reviews. We also included Amazon best sellers that have even been extensively tested by our analysts at the Good Housekeeping Institute. From top-rated bed sheets to popular Amazon mattresses to expert-tested vacuums and more, this list includes only our very favorite items on Amazon.

Bissell's handheld carpet and upholstery cleaner went viral on social media because of its ability to help remove dirt from rugs, car upholstery and more. With more than 70,000 five-star ratings, it's Amazon's best-selling carpet cleaner. Plus, our cleaning experts at the GH Institute found that this small-but-mighty device was super easy to clean out, too.

Upgrade to a set of non-slip hangers, and you won't be sorry. This set has received nearly 170,000 five-star reviews. They're especially great for keeping your pants from falling. This particular set comes in nine colors and packs of 30, 50 or 100.

A top-tested pick among our Kitchen Lab pros, this meat thermometer received perfect scores on our temperature accuracy tests. Plus, it delivered results in under three seconds. "I love that it can stick to my grill shelves and on my fridge where I can always find it," says Kitchen Appliances Lab Director, Nicole Papantoniou.

We have recommended Songmics products in other organizing guides, and we love that their makeup organizer has four layers, with two drawers, an open surface for standing items and a top layer with dividers.

Beloved by our Lab pros and testers, this Bedsure pick won a GH Bedding Award and was named our best overall throw blanket. Our pros found it easy to launder, and testers raved about it's incredibly soft quality.

We named this bed frame the best overall option from Amazon. Made of solid wood, the bed frame is available in various stains and three heights (giving you the option of under-bed storage). Amazon users say it's sturdy and easy to assemble.

This INIU portable charger is a powerful must-have to keep in your bag. It has two USB-C ports and a USB-A port, and the brand says it can charge your phone to 60% in just 25 minutes. We love this mini size that weighs only 6.4 ounces.

When it comes to Amazon mattresses, this wildly popular Zinus (with over 114,000 five-star reviews!) impressed our testers and Lab pros. Many testers enjoyed the medium-firm feel, great motion isolation and balance of being "not too hard and not too soft."

Crabgrass may think it's the boss of your yard, but this best-selling weeder proves otherwise. It's easy to use, removes weeds in a few simple moves — and best of all, you use it standing up. That means no more aches and pains from crawling around your garden! It works on most soil types, but reviewers say the best time to weed is after it rains because the ground is softer.

A compact and well-organized jewelry case is a travel must-have. This one has a dedicated spaces for your earrings, rings and necklaces, plus other pockets for larger pieces like bracelets or watches. It comes in two sizes and eight colors.

Anything that tames a kitchen drawer is a good idea in our book, and this expandable organizer is an Amazon best seller. This is the medium size, but there's also a larger version also available. You can get it in this natural color, black, gray or white.

Give your water bottle a break while you're at home and enjoy these stylish glasses instead. It's a set of four, and each glass comes with its own leak-preventing bamboo lid and a glass straw. You should wash the lids and straws by hand, but two straw cleaners are included.

The brand claims that in about 12 minutes, this small appliance can make hard- or soft-boiled eggs, and there are also attachments that let you make poached eggs and an omelet. It's a smart way to make breakfast in a hurry, and it comes in nine colors. It also makes a great dorm room or first apartment gift, too.

Everyone knows how annoying it is when your phone or keys fall in hard-to-get-to car crevices, but this smart invention can prevent it altogether. Simply slip it over the seat belt catch, wedge it in between your seat and the console, and it'll catch anything that falls. Amazon reviewers like that it stays put, even when a seat is moved.

Upgrade your home with a smart video doorbell that lets you see, hear and speak to anyone from your phone or mobile device. In testing, our GH Institute analysts found that the Ring video doorbell offered excellent video quality even at night and had superb audio while speaking to visitors at your door. You can record and store videos of your front porch for up to 180 days, with the subscription.

This best-selling model is one of the more affordable vacuums from the brand — even before sales — and features a sealed HEPA system. Reviewers rave that it's lightweight and easy to maneuver.

It feels like everyone has owned a pair of Crocs at some point in their lives. Known as some of the most comfortable shoes, these lightweight, colorful slip-ons have made a major comeback. Plus, they're gender neutral, making them the perfect gift for any adult or child looking for an extra cozy pair of shoes.

COSRX is one of our editor-favorite Korean skincare brands, and this snail mucin serum is beloved by both celebrities and Amazon reviewers for its ability to moisturize and target wrinkles. One person on Amazon even said, "It feels like you had a facelift without the surgery!"

For those who have sensitive teeth or prefer to skip the strips, let us introduce you to this whitening pen by Colgate. A top performer in our tests, the gentle wand earned the highest score for not irritating teeth and ranked well at visibly whitening teeth. The application was easy, and testers noted no pain or sensitivity.
