If Your Favorite Pastime Is Rotting On The Couch, These 31 Products Were Made For You
1. A snack bowl you can plop on top of your Stanley cup for enjoying some snackies while staying ~hydrated~. It’s perfect for movie nights or mindless TikTok scrolling!
Promising review: “This is like a snack tray for adults (I’m sure people can use it for kids) but it’s so fun during a binge-watching session or a long trek in the car. You might have to refill if you have popcorn, even in the large part. It’s a little small for light snacks like popcorn but more than spacious for medium to heavy snacks. I just love it and highly recommend. One of my best purchases of the year.” —SloaneZ
Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in five colors and two sizes).Â
2. And an eight-compartment snack box because movie night isn’t complete without your favorite crackers, chips, and candy. You’ll always have a variety of your fave snacks, because being limited to one is so (*yawn*) boooring.Â
Promising review: “SO many ways to utilize this snack box! So far, we have used it for movie night and park snacks during our walks. This is going to be a necessity for this summer with our daughters’ sports schedules. Love! I will be buying the larger one they offer. It’s going to be perfect for summer fruits!” —Daniella
Get it from Amazon for $19.99Â (also available in a two-pack).
3. A blissfully plush checkered blanket that is EXTREMELY soft and fluffy, perfect for cozying up on the couch. Just imagine settling in for a Dance Moms marathon and throwing this baby on top of you — ahhh, pure bliss. Plus, reviewers say it’s comparable to the pricier Barefoot Dreams throw!
Promising review: “This is the best and biggest blanket. I am so happy I impulse bought this, even if I was solely motivated by aesthetic. [Just like] Barefoot Dreams!!! So soft, so large, so cute, so obsessed. Worth every penny.” —Nicole Jones
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in three sizes and seven colors).Â
4. An acupressure mat and pillow because after a long day of work, plopping down onto your couch just won’t cut it. This set helps to relieve tension and stress with over *7,000* acupressure points — after 10–30 minutes of lying on it, you will probably arise as a new person.Â

Promising review: “Honestly a friend sent me a TikTok video on this item. I was like for $20 I’ll try it, and oh my god, I have lower back problems and 20 minutes lying on this spiking mat helped relieve pressure. I work remotely and am sitting down for 8–10 hours a day, so tension builds up and this totally worked. So many ways to try using the mat.” —Arlington Ink
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+Â (available in 15 colors and two sizes).
5. A cozy fleece loungewear set you can toss on as soon as you set foot inside your home. You can still look super chic while you’re in full relaxation mode!
Promising review: “I love this set!!!! It is buttery soft and so comfy! It’s a nice weight to keep you warm but not so heavy that I can’t sleep in it. I love the fit and how cute it is!” —Nancy Hall
Get it from Amazon for $58.99 (available in 10 colors and women’s sizes S–XL).Â
6. And a Barefoot Dreams robe so you can lounge around all night feeling as cozy as can be. I dare you to not feel as relaxed as humanly possible in this.Â
Promising review: “I own three Barefoot Dreams robes and this is by far my favorite and the others are wonderful. What I love is that it is extremely soft yet lightweight. You’ll feel like you are at a high-end spa or hotel; instant relaxation. I literally live in this at home. I like my robes oversized. I’m a L–XL in tops and slacks. I got the 2–3 and it’s perfect; not tight and not too huge either. I can attest if you follow wash instructions this brand lasts a long time. I’ve had my others over five years and they are just as soft and have maintained their shape well. You’re paying for quality. I’m very pleased with the version! GET IT !!” —SHAHRILIN
Get it from Amazon for $121.38+Â (available in three colors and three sizes).
7. AND! A genius Comfy that’ll give you both the comfort of a hoodie and the warmth of a blanket — who could possibly hate the epitome of coziness and relaxation? Promising review: “I bought this for my dad for Christmas. He is extremely hard to buy for. I knew this would be something he loves or never wears. He is always really cold. He works from home and so I got him this in hopes he could stay warm and still be able to do video on his calls. I hit a home run! He loves it. It’s so soft and warm and it’s surprisingly stylish. It’s the perfect warmth for him so he doesn’t have to continually turn a space heater on and off to keep the room at the right temp. It would be perfect for relaxing around the house while staying warm and not having to continually readjust a blanket.” —Katie M
Get it from Amazon for $49.99+ (available in 23 styles).
8. An Amazon Echo letting you blast music throughout your house without having to move an inch. It’s true what they say: Robots can do almost ANYTHING. Just say, “Alexa, play ‘The Lazy Song’ by Bruno Mars,” then sit back and relax.Â
Amazon
Of course, not *only* can Alexa play your favorite songs, but she can also turn on your lights, set timers, alarms, and reminders, tell you the weather, turn on appliances, and more. The possibilities are truly endless. If you’ve always wanted to have a smart home, this is your chance to start moving towards a house of the future! Â
Promising review: “I love this device! I was skeptical it would be helpful. I got a deal on smart plugs and paired them with Alexa. 🤣 Now we love playing music, cutting on lights throughout house, televisions, fans. We are old and not techy so this was a stretch for us. It’s SO easy to set up and so useful I don’t know why I waited so long or how I got along without it. You will NOT be sorry you purchased. Buy smart plugs to to add to all your outlets. Cut on lights before you get home. LOVE it!” —Tami
Get it from Amazon for $99.99 (available in three colors).
9. A Cup Cozy so you won’t have to get up for snacks or bevvies once you plop down on the couch. Let’s be honest for a sec: Do you really want to reach alllll the way to your side table to sip your cup o’ tea once you’re cozied up? I didn’t think so.
Cup Cozy Pillow is a family-run small business that created this product after wanting a way to keep a drink close by while working on a laptop on the couch.
Promising review: “I’m very impressed and love these. I got tired of having guests over and having nowhere to put drinks so I bought two and have no regrets. The center slot holds a coffee/tea mug, my water bottle comfortably fits in another, and they are so sturdy that when the dogs get up nearby, I’m not stressed about them getting knocked over.” —RW
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (check out the other colors and styles here).
10. A Govee smart floor lamp that’ll add the perfect mood lighting to your home. Put it in a corner and watch it radiate gorgeous colors (it has 25 preset modes!) to create ~ambiance~. You can even control it with your phone *and* connect it to Alexa! *Plus* it comes with a music mode if you want the light to sync with your tunes.
Promising review: “Bought this light because I thought it was cool, but it is more than that! I use it every day, and it has many colors and patterns to choose from. The thing I love the most is you can set up times for it to come on and turn off. You can set how bright you want it, so I had it turned on with a dimmed light to help me wake up in early mornings.” —Rueben Thao
Get it from Amazon for $99.99Â (available in two colors).Â
11. A 10-foot lightning cable if you don’t have an outlet nearby and your phone’s running on fumes, but you’ve made a “you-shaped” dent in your couch and can’t be bothered to move. Now the TikTok scrolling can continue without interruption.
Promising review: “You can never go wrong with extra long charging cables! My wife and I use these for charging our phones on our nightstands so we can use the phones in bed without over stretching shorter cables. The braided cables are nice and the red connectors add a little pop of color. We’ve had other brands of cables fall apart at the connector in a short amount of time but these seem pretty solid.” —Mr. D
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in five colors and four other sizes).
12. An electric mug warmer so you don’t have to constantly get up and put your mug in the microwave — especially if you’re a sipper. After four hours it’ll automatically shut off, so you don’t have to worry if you walk away (or doze off) and forget it!
Tip: Reviewers suggest turning the heat down from high to medium once your drink gets down to about the halfway point so it stays a comfortable temperature!
Promising review: “This is my third Vobaga coffee warmer. I bought the first one in 2018, and it’s still going strong. It keeps my coffee hot to the last drop. It’s important to remember it doesn’t heat up cold beverages to piping hot. It keeps hot beverages hot.” —hottytoddy
Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in seven colors/styles).
13. A remote control page turner — you won’t have to budge an inch from that perfect, comfy position you’ve set yourself in because this bb will tap your screen for you. Just attach the clip to your Kindle or tablet, and it will flip to the next page with the click of a button!
Promising review: “This comes in so handy when you want to read your Kindle and cuddle under the covers at the same time. I can’t imagine going back to not having one now!! Super easy to connect and charge last a long time!!” —Christy DuBois
Get it from Amazon for $33.99.
14. And a TikTok remote control ring because some days you can’t be bothered to move *at all*. With just a push of a button, you’ll be able to scroll through TikTok without touching your phone. You can even use this to take pictures on your phone from up to 33 feet away!Â
Promising review: “I have a TikTok obsession, and I am thrilled with this ring! I love how versatile it is, too, where I can flip book pages on my phone and go through music as well. It’s easy to use and set up if you follow the instructions.” —The Shopper around the Corner
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in six colors).Â
15. An Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K that allows you to download almost every streaming service so you can park yourself in front of the TV for hours if that’s the vibe for the day. Press the voice button and say, “Alexa, play Grey’s Anatomy,” then prepare to bawl your eyes out (even though you already know what happens).
The Alexa feature can find shows, launch apps, and even dim the lights so you don’t have to move.
Promising review: “Behold, the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K – because who needs sunshine when you have a remote control and a couch? This little device is like a magic wand for turning living rooms into entertainment kingdoms. It’s basically the scepter of laziness. Skip, pause, play – it’s like having a personal assistant for your binge-watching needs. Just don’t be surprised if you start referring to it as “your precious.” In conclusion, the Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K is the unsung hero of every movie night, turning us all into certified couch potatoes. It’s so awesome that even your grandma is probably using one to binge-watch her favorite shows. So, grab your popcorn, sink into that cushiony paradise, and let the Fire TV Stick 4K work its pixelated magic! —Brittney
Get it from Amazon for $39.99.
16. And a glow-in-the-dark Fire TV Stick remote case because you’ve been dreaming all day of rotting on the couch and rewatching New Girl — so don’t let a missing remote ruin your plans. This nifty, grippy case helps prevent the remote from slipping between your couch cushions or falling to the floor, and if it *does* disappear, you’ll locate it in mere seconds because it’ll be ~glowing~.
Check out a TikTok of the glow-in-the-dark case in action.Â
Promising review: “It’s a thin silicone case that slips right on and has holes for all buttons and the microphone in the right places. It also has raised dots on the back to make it easy to grip. With the easy to see color, I no longer lose my remote in the couch cushions. Highly recommend.” —S. Mizrahi
Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in five colors and two versions).Â
17. An Owala FreeSip tumbler so you can enjoy icy agua all evening instead of having to add more ice every hour. This godsend offers all the benefits of a Stanley without the spills, and its spout is a game changer — you can either drink through a built-in straw or tilt it back to chug. Plus, you’ll never have to painfully sip on a lukewarm bev again because it keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours with its triple-layer insulation!Â
Oh, and did I mention it was featured in Time’s Best Inventions of 2023!!!Â
Promising reviews: “I’ve tried them all — cheap knock-offs and expensive ones like Stanley, Hydro Flask, and so many others — and this is hands-down the best water bottle!! I love that I can use it with the built-in straw or use it as a open water bottle just depending on how I tip it while drinking. It’s seriously perfect. My husband has been using a Stanley for four years and switched to this after seeing mine. No more leaking, or spilling.” —rowleypolie
“Without a doubt everyone has heard the uproar over huge insulated cup brands using lead to make their cups. If that is a concern for you, then there is no need to worry about this one. This cup is made lead-free and works phenomenally! I always put ice in my Owala with my water and notice that all the ice is still there over a span of 48 hours and still freezing cold.” —DietDrKelp069
Get a 24-ounce tumbler from Amazon for $24.89+ (available in 22 colors and three other sizes).
18. A Roomba robot vacuum if your floors are begging to be cleaned, but the couch is holding you hostage. Not to worry — this baby will do it all for you! It can navigate around furniture and even fit under tight spaces so every nook and cranny of your home will be clean by the end of your Netflix session. Plus, you can use the app on your phone to give it a schedule!Â
It’s compatible with Alexa and runs for up to 120 minutes before automatically returning to its dock to recharge.Â
Promising review: “Amazing product; I run this baby before I mop the floors. It picks up all the little things like dust. Whenever the house is getting a little dirty and I’m feeling lazy, I just hit CLEAN. It’s like having a really lazy maid that only vacuums every day but is only a one-time payment.” —Frank
Get it from Amazon for $224.
19. A SwitchBot Smart Switch button pusher so you don’t have to get up from the couch to turn off the lights whenever you want to take a lil’ nappy. Just attach the SwitchBot to any device with an on/off switch and download the app! From there, you can even set it on a timer — all you need is a Bluetooth connection.
Reviewers love this because it doesn’t require you to “smart enable” other parts of your home. It’s also a great way to turn on your kettle or coffee brewer from the other room so it’s ready for you when you get out of bed!Â
You can even connect it to your Alexa or Google Home for voice control if you pair it with a Switchbot Hub, which also allows you to control it from anywhere. Otherwise, you can just control it using the app within Bluetooth range. (Note: The Hub also comes with two Smart Buttons.)Â
Promising review: “This is exactly what I was looking for and had no idea it existed until I saw someone mention it on TikTok! Our front walkway gets pretty dark at night, and I was frustrated with trying to remember to turn on the light every evening and off every morning. I looked into those light sensors you can plug in, but our front porch light is under an awning with enough shade that it would have kept the light on 24/7. This little Switchbot solved the problem. I applied it to the indoor light switch and set the time on my phone. It has worked perfectly ever since.” —Alecia McLochlin
Get it from Amazon for $29+Â (available in white and black).Â
20. And an Alexa-compatible smart plug so you can verbally tell it to do anything you’d rather not get up and do yourself, from turning on your coffee machine to turning off the lights. Add voice control to ANY outlet with this *truly* smart plug. Â
Promising reviews: “Whenever these plugs go on sale, I grab a couple. I love how easily they connect to Wi-Fi and the Echo Dot so that the whole house can be voice-activated. It’s also easy to manage them in the Alexa app to offer remote control capabilities. Simply walking in and saying, ‘Alexa, turn on the…’ saves time and even helps me turn on the coffee in the morning…from bed!” —Steve Blanchard
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
21. A pair of prism spectacles ideal for anyone in their “lazy gal” era (aka me). You can lie completely flat on your back to read or scroll through TikTok instead of doing an unintentional core workout and straining your neck just to prop your head up.Â
Promising review: “I didn’t know what I was missing until I used this. My life is now complete. If you enjoy comfort and lazy binge-watching but don’t care how ridiculous you look wearing these, then you have found nirvana. My glasses fit in these just fine. It takes a minute to get used to, then it becomes your reason to live. Expect people to laugh at you, but forgive them for they know not what they are missing.” —Michael Boyd
Get them from Amazon for $12.99.
22. An automatic pet feeder so you can schedule meals for your pets up to four times a day. It holds up to 6 liters of food so you don’t have to keep refilling it! Oh, Milo’s hungry? Just open the app to give your furry friend a treat!Promising reviews: “This feeder works so well! We were planning a trip and didn’t want to have anyone come to the house (COVID), so we bought these. You can set the number of daily feedings, specific times, portion sizes for each feeding, and even leave a recorded message for your pet. There’s even a backup battery function, in case of a power outage! We recently had a storm, and the power went out, so I figured I’d have to reset everything since I never put batteries in…nope! All my settings saved, and it continued working as planned when the power kicked back on. Really good product. Really functional. We are now using it every day, as it’s just become a time saver. The cats like it, and we love it. Good price compared to other products we looked at, too.” —StarFarm
Get it from Amazon for $52.99+Â (available in two sizes, three colors, and with or without Wi-Fi).Â
23. A TikTok-famous 3-in-1 convertible “reading chair” that may just give Chandler and Joey’s Barcaloungers a run for their money — you’ll never want to get up from this bb. It has USB charging ports, a cup holder, and a side pocket to hold your remotes or books. Plus, you can pull it out and turn it into a sleeper chair or a full flat sleeper. Um, this is not a want but a NEED.
Amazon
AND there’s a secret storage space on the bottom so you can store your pillows and blankets!
Check out a TikTok of the reading chair in action.Â
Promising review: “Amazing reading chair/lounger. If you’re one of those people who needs to change positions often while reading, this chair is the bomb. I leave a charging cord in the arm for my phone and headphones, slide out the foot, and grab whatever book I chucked under there. I can lay down, recline, sit straight, etc. with ease. The foot stool part, being collapsible and held up with thin bars, did kind of sink a little after awhile but nothing that makes the chair feel broken or look lopsided. It’s a solid little guy and I plan on picking another one up eventually for another room I like to read in.” —Calvin Andrews
Get it from Amazon for $254.99+ (available in six colors).Â
24. A luxe candle so you can set the mood for your Toy Story marathon with just the right amount of lighting and a delightful scent. When you light this bad boy up, it’ll give off a captivating aroma of jasmine, oud, and sandalwood. Lulu Candles is a US-based small business that specializes in scented candles and perfumes.Â
Promising review: “I was staying over at a friend’s house and sitting next to her coffee table. She had this candle on the table and even though it wasn’t lit I could smell it, and it was so delicious that I instantly went online to find it and bought it for myself! If this came in a perfume I would buy enough to last the rest of my life. I don’t know how to even explain the scent but if you are an amber/patchouli/vanilla fan, this is absolutely for you. The jasmine adds an unbelievable freshness without a flowery scent.” —Melissa I.Â
Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in three sizes, in gift box options, in packs of two, and in a variety of scents). Â
25. A tablet holder that holds any size iPad, Kindle, or other device so you don’t have to. Now you can enjoy a movie, book, or show without straining to balance your tablet on your body.Â
The screw-on base makes it easy to secure the tablet stand on the edge of a flat surface, and the tablet clamp rotates vertically and horizontally.Â
Promising review: “Definitely a must-have! The gooseneck makes it easy to adjust to your liking, I have had this for a while now, and I still give it a 10/10! It is easy to use and very sturdy! I use this in the car and in my bedroom, but can attach it to mostly anywhere!” —Ellayna
Get it from Amazon for $27.99Â (available in two colors).
26. A heating pad for your sore neck, back, and (honestly) entire body that has been working too hard. It heats up in just 20 seconds and will help relieve any tension that’s been living within you.Â
Promising review: “This is the best heating pad I have ever bought. It is the perfect size and so soft. The 12 levels of temperature control are perfect. In the past I have had heating pads that are either surface of the sun hot or you can’t tell they are even on. I would absolutely recommend this one!” —Kim Deal
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+Â (available in three styles).Â
27. And a heated massager so you can release your stress when you come home from work. You can use it on your back, neck, legs, and even your feet to knead out all those knots while relaxing on the sofa.
Amazon
Promising review: “I have horrific tension headaches and migraines. This thing melts them away so quickly. You can adjust the pressure by pulling on the handles or lay back into it. The heat is just enough to relax. I went around and around trying to decide if something like this was worth it and I finally just decided to try it. Trust me; buy the massager!” —Kelly Dyer
Get it from Amazon for $39.99Â (available in two colors).
28. A cult-favorite movie theater popcorn salt because popcorn from the theater just ~hits different~. Reviewers say it tastes just like the real deal, so heat up some kernels, sprinkle some of this deliciousness on, and enjoy your at-home movie night!Â
BuzzFeed Shopping writer Emma Lord says, “Our family recently unearthed this because beloved To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before author Jenny Han mentioned that it was her secret to delicious popcorn, and it may have just wrecked me for other at-home popcorn for the rest of my life. It genuinely tastes just as salty and buttery and savory as fresh movie theater popcorn. I inhaled it so fast that every single one of my organs lit up in mild alarm.”Â
Promising review: “I am a person who will make myself sick eating buckets of popcorn (I have no self control). This has by far been my favorite ‘TikTok made me buy’ item. My at-home popcorn is now my favorite thing to make and I don’t need to go the theater for popcorn. Very much worth the purchase and this will last me such a long time.” —S Martinez
Get it from Amazon for $9.45.
29. A folding ottoman giving you somewhere to rest your tired dogs because they’re too good to be on the floor. Plus, this ottoman doubles as storage space (great for stashing remotes, throw pillows, etc.), and the lid turns into a tray — *plus* if you need to put it away for some reason, it folds up!
Amazon
Promising review: “It’s sturdy enough with the lid on for a 200-pound person to sit on as long as you aren’t shifting and moving around a lot. I’m using it for storage and as a footrest while I sit in the middle of the couch with a Great Dane on either side. Perfect height and the price is right, plus if I want to put it away, folds down to easily storable size!” —Cmonkey
Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in two fabrics and four colors).
30. A lap desk if you insist on doing work *only* from the couch. This handy thing will save your poor thighs from burning when your laptop overheats, and it’ll give you an even surface so you don’t have to awkwardly balance your devices on your lap. Plus, it has a pillowy cushion and anti-slip wrist pad to take your comfort level to the max!
Promising review: “This is a great product for working at home. I’ve been using it for a week now. If you work at home and like to be able to move around, this has the best features for a lap desk. It’s very lightweight with a sturdy bamboo table top and ergonomic wrist padding. I also like the idea of having the slot and pockets to carry your pens, cell phone, etc. The foam padding below the table top is very comfortable, keeps a steady form while on your lap, and keeps your lap cool from the heat generated from the laptop. Would definitely recommend this product to family and friends!” —cmkapo
Get it from Amazon for $39.98+Â (available in six colors and two sizes).
31. Or a rolling C-shaped table with a base designed to slide under the couch so you’ll have a perfectly placed mini table for your laptop and, of course, meals and snacks.
Amazon
Promising review: “A MUST for working from home. This is the perfect size for working from home when I want to get out of my office and take meetings on the couch! It can comfortably fit a MacBook Pro, notebook, mouse, and snacks. Also super easy to put together and looks wonderful with the rest of my furniture” —Brittany Back
Get it from Amazon for $33.99+Â (available in five colors).
