1. A pack of solar-powered waterproof deck lights so you can enjoy the lovely fall weather and watch the leaves change colors curled up with some delish cider.
Promising review: “These lights were easy to install and look great in on our deck. We just had a pool built and needed some light on the steps of the deck so we could see walking up the steps at night. They’re beautiful without too much light.” —BJ

2. A window insulator kit because you want to keep your energy bill low as the weather cools down. This crystal clear film heat shrinks to seal out drafts so you can enjoy your cozy home without any chilliness.
Promising review: “I buy this every winter and it makes a BIG difference! We have super-thin windows and this works like a charm to stop 80% of the cold drafts, and I find I can sit right next to the window without a problem after installing them. It’s easy to install and looks invisible after you apply heat with a hair dryer. No one will be able to tell there’s a film and it’ll look completely transparent after you apply heat. It was so satisfying to see the wrinkles disappear! It looks great, works great, and will save your energy! Win win win!” —Raymond

3. A super smart (and cute) humidifier tank cleaner to make sure your trusty humidifier is mildew and stink-free while you have it on full blast all season long.
Promising reviews: “I LOVE these little fish. I’ve been using them for about 2.5 years now and I truly believe they help keep the humidifier and water cleaner. People don’t realize all the nasty mold and bacteria that can be growing in their humidifier and then released into the air in their room! I’ve noticed a huge difference in mold growth when I use these fish.” —Shelly
Get it from Amazon for $5.98.
4. A plush, double-sided shaggy faux-fur duvet set if you want to feel extra cozy while you’re curled up on your couch bingeing Gilmore Girls for the hundredth time.
Amazon
Promising review: “If my house caught on fire, this is the first thing I’d grab. But seriously, this is one of my favorite things in my whole house. I feel like it tied my entire room together. I get so many compliments on it and it’s seriously so cozy and well made. My only complaint would be how hard this thing makes it to get out of bed in the mornings. It’s incredibly soft and isn’t the type of ‘fur’ that will mat and get gross-looking over time. I rely heavily on reviews when I buy things so I’m here to tell you — if you’re on the fence about buying this…do it!!” —Sk

5. A sleek Levoit air purifier because fall is the season of allergies and you don’t want to have to deal with a stuffy nose and stingy eyes in your own home.
Promising review: “I have allergies to pollen and to windblown crumpled leaves in the spring and fall. Although I take allergy pills, in the spring and fall they don’t seem to be as effective. But this year has been the worst for allergies, perhaps due to smoke from fires that affect the Ohio River Valley in which I live. I have allergy symptoms almost continuously including sudden onset of a dripping nose, a symptom I have never experienced before. So I did an online study of alternative air purifiers and settled on this one, now situated in my small main-floor home office. It is terrific! When I’m in my office while it’s running, I no longer have the nasal drips and other allergy symptoms. The air in my office even smells fresher than elsewhere! I strongly endorse this air purifier. It has been terrifically beneficial to me.” —A customer
Get it from Amazon for $99.99+ (available in two styles and in black and white).
6. An AeroGarden so you can grow your very own herbs for all the delicious fall meals you have planned. Get ready to impress the whole fam at Thanksgiving!!!
Promising review: “I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend’s sister-in-law who lamented not having a green thumb. In the two months that the sis-in-law has had the AeroGarden, the growth has been tremendous. I’m constantly in awe when she sends me pix of the new growth.” —Mary A. Walls
Get it from Amazon for $119.97+ (available in two sizes and four colors).
7. A Bioderma hydrating facial lotion because your skin dryness from cold weather could probably use a little extra TLC. All you have to do is soak a cotton pad with it every morning and night for a cold-weather transformation that’ll help save your cracking, scaley skin.
Amazon
Promising review: “Obsessed. My YouTube hero turned me on to this product and my skin is in HEAVEN. I have pale, sensitive, dry skin and this saved me after the winter months in Minnesota made my skin extremely irritated and dry. I can’t recommend this enough!” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
8. A pair of Chelsea boots if you’re looking for a cold-weather staple that would look great with all your chunky sweaters and colorful scarves.
Promising review: “I’ve worn these nonstop for four months. Trust me, they’re great. They are true to the description and very comfortable. I’ve worn them walking around DC many times and they’ve been great. I will continue to buy these for as long as they sell them.” —Julia D.
Get it from Amazon for $42.99 (available in women’s sizes 5–11 and in seven colors).
9. A timeless denim jacket because what is a fall wardrobe without this closet staple? Pair it with literally any autumn outfit and you’ll stay warm while lookin’ ~cool.~
FYI, this is included in Prime Try Before You Buy so you can give it a trial run if you’re a member!
Promising review: “I have to be honest, I didn’t expect much from a $30 jean jacket from Amazon, but I’d been futilely looking for one I really liked and thought that it couldn’t hurt to try given the good reviews. I now absolutely love this jacket and actually wore it almost everyday on a recent trip. One discovery I made that cemented my love for it is that it has two inside pockets that are the perfect size for your standard big smartphone, or a wallet, or a passport, and it doesn’t really show. SO convenient.” —Jenn
Get it from Amazon for $33.53+ (available in women’s sizes XS–XL and in 11 colors).
10. A portable ceramic space heater with three levels of intensity because not all homes have central heating and you wanna stay nice n’ toasty once it starts getting cold out.
Promising review: “For such a small heater, this puts out a lot of heat and the noise level is low. This is actually better than a tower heater we recently bought for winter that cost three times as much. Will order two more for the cold months ahead. Easy to set anywhere it is needed. Very happy with it.” —Robin F.
Get it from Amazon for $23.99.
11. An insulated weather- and soundproof strip if you don’t want cold weather getting inside. Weather belongs outdoors!!
Promising review: “JUST WHAT I NEEDED! This weatherstrip worked great for me. It came in two attached strips with an adhesive backing. The strips can be separated as needed. It was easy to peel the backing and install the strips. I installed both strips on the door casing where the door meets it when closed. It immediately stopped the draft that was coming in around the door.” —RH in TN
Get it from Amazon for $7.97+ (available in two sizes and four colors).
12. A pair of ergonomically designed oversized leaf scoops if you want to feel like The Incredible Hulk while you’re doing the most fun fall chore.
Amazon
Promising review: “These scoops are FANTASTIC. They turned a rather physically daunting chore into a much easier one, not to mention we spend literally less than half of the time that we normally have spent gathering up all these leaves and acorns. We are going to purchase another pair for NEXT season!! Wonderful ingenious tool! A must-have for raking chores!” —JMB
Get them from Amazon for $28.95.
13. And a pack of three large water- and tear-resistant garden dustpans so collecting and disposing of all leaves is easy as pumpkin pie!
Amazon
Promising review: “We are doing a lot of yard work, trimming shrubs, removing large weeds, clearing broken branches. I needed a larger container than the standard 30 gallon can. These hold at least twice that volume and because they are as wide as they are high are far easier to load with larger debris.” —nightsong
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $22.99.
14. A blow-dryer holder so you can bundle up in your towel after a shower and just spin around the hair dryer without using your arms. Work smarter, not harder, people.
Promising review: “I LOVE this hair dryer holder. It used to take me 15–20 minutes to dry my hair in the morning. Now it takes me eight because I don’t have to put my arms down to rest them anymore. I placed it high on my bathroom wall and tilted the arm down because I wanted to straighten my wavy hair. My hair was sleek and straight because I brushed it while drying, which was so much easier to do without holding the dryer. I’ll tell all my friends about this!” —Jon Wagner
Get it from Amazon for $34.95.
15. A gutter scoop to unclog water-logged and matted leaves from your backed-up gutters. The chisel teeth on the front pick at debris and water exits through the mesh screen.
Amazon
Promising review: “Not sure why it took me so long to find this item. After years of scraping out packed silt in the bottom of my gutters, I saw this and ordered it. I was a little unsure if I could use it on my smaller than standard size 4-inch gutters, but if anything the smaller size lets this thing fit even tighter and scoop out more efficiently. (I do have to lift it over the gutter junctions but that’s fine.” —W. Steward
Get it from Amazon for $11.99.
16. An oversize faux-fur jacket with major cozy vibes, so you’re next caught shivering when that biting autumn wind starts a blowin’.
Promising review: “I love this jacket! I wasn’t sure what the quality was going to turn out to be, but it’s super soft and exactly what I wanted. It fits in the oversized way that I wanted/expected. And it’s soooo warm!” —Bri
Get it from Amazon for $48.99 (available in women’s sizes S–3XL and 32 colors/styles).
17. A pack of two extendable window screens that will come in handy now that you won’t need your AC blasting 24/7.
Promising review: “I’m very happy to write this review. After searching for weeks, I finally found this package of two screens. They work exactly how I wanted them to. They don’t move because they are hitting the frame of the outer window screen. If you raise to the full 15 inches, the window will sit on top and it definitely will not move. So now with Texas weather, I can have fresh air when the weather permits and save on my AC bill when it’s warmer. Absolutely the perfect choice for me.” —Grandma K
Get it from Amazon for $39.99.
18. A pack of 15 BootRescue cleaning wipes for when it starts snowing and you want to avoid slush and salt stains on your fave pair.
Promising review: “Worked perfectly on black suede booties. I splattered some creamy soup on them two months ago and couldn’t find anything that removed the stain. Tried these wipes as a last-ditch effort. I can’t believe it; they look brand new!! Stains came right out with very little effort.” —AAD
Get it from Amazon for $9.49.
19. A fierce pullover sweater giving fun feline flair. Just prepare yourself for the onslaught of compliments coming your way.
Promising reviews: “This sweater is warm, soft, and comfortable. It always gets compliments when I wear it.” —Christine
“It’s so soft and feels well made. This is the cutest sweater I’ve ever owned, and it feels and looks much more expensive than it was. If you’re hesitant, just go for it! It’s unique and will never go out of style.” —Leslie L
Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 12 colors).
20. A pack of large-capacity storage bags so you can make room for all your puffy coats and sweaters in your closet by storing your summertime clothes for the winter.
Promising review: “I really like these storage bags. I was able to store extra blankets, pillows, seat cushions, sweaters, and more. I was rather amazed at how much they hold. The quality appears to be good; sturdy stitching, strong-enough zippers, sturdy handles, so I imagine they will hold up well as they reside in my closets.” —Whimsy 1
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes, four colors, and in larger pack sizes).
21. A set of two ceramic travel mugs with insulated cork bottoms, so you can bring your warm beverages with you wherever you go.
Amazon
Just be sure not to put this in the microwave or dishwasher or the cork might bid you farewell.
Promising review: “I have been searching for something like this for A LONG time. I make myself a fancy-ish coffee/tea every morning. I am someone who when drinking a hot beverage actually likes it to stay hot. So I typically drank out of a ‘travel mug’ while at home. But this is so much more satisfying. The ceramic is great, as is the rich color, and the cork is not only aesthetic but functional (no ring marks on your wooden coffee table or nightstand). In fact, you could say that about the whole mug. Aesthetic and functional.” —Warrior Poet
Get it from Amazon for $19.29.
22. A splurge-worthy folding electric treadmill if you’re craving a walk outside but the chilly weather has you staying indoors.
Promising review: “I was looking for an under-the-desk treadmill for use when the weather isn’t that great outside and to get a workout in as we are locked in during the pandemic. I was able to unpack, lift, move, and set up the treadmill with ease. The wheels definitely help to move the treadmill from workout location to under the couch or its storage location. So far this seems like a really good product that’s worth its value.” —Sandeep Konchady
Get it from Amazon for $341.99+ (available in four colors).
23. A pair of overalls if you’re a farmer, an artist, a barista, or anyone who is on their feet a lot and wants to be comfy and look cute at the same time. These are basically like wearing an adult onesie…what’s NOT to like?!
Promising review: “If you’ve been hesitant about whether or not to buy these, then this is your official sign to just do it!! I kept these in my ‘Saved for later’ cart for nearly a year before finally deciding to take the leap. Oh my GOSH, I am so glad I did! These are officially my favorite pair of overalls and absolutely perfect for fall. They’re so comfortable, and I most certainly will be ordering more in other colors. So if you’re looking to unleash your inner painter/gardener, then this is the perfect outfit for you :D” —Nathan R Ford
Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in sizes S–3XL and in 12 colors and patterns).
24. A pair of Columbia Newton Ridge Plus Hiking Shoes with a high-traction rubber sole and waterproof leather and suede upper if you’re planning on hitting up any national parks this fall.
You can wear these year-round, but they’re light enough for summer hikes.
Prime members: You can try before you buy!
Promising review: “Love these boots, so comfortable! I’ve worn them on several hikes, and doing yard work. A must-have if you have issues with long-wear comfort. I know these boots will last a long time. The reason I had to get a new pair is that my old ones were over 15 years old, but still held up.” —Kim
Get it from Amazon for $35.91+ (available in sizes 5–12, including wide sizes, and 22 colors). You can find a similar men’s version here.
25. Brazilian Bum Bum Cream infused with caffeine, guarana extract, and coconut oil that’ll make you glow like summertime and leave your skin smelling absolutely amazing. Honestly, the worst part about this product is that you can’t eat it.
Promising review: “Like so many, I was brainwashed by TikTok into buying this rather expensive lotion…then I bought one for my mom, and one for my sister, and five more for myself as they became harder to find. My favorite thing about it is the smell. Lightly tropical/coconutty but nothing overwhelming. Every time I wear it, people say, ‘What are you WEARING?’ like I have some amazing perfume on. Besides that, it really is a great moisturizer. I’m not usually a sucker for marketing, but this was so worth it.” —Kristen
Get it from Amazon for $24+ (available in three sizes).
26. Some long-lasting Peripera Ink Velvet Lip Tint to give your pout a smooth, ultra-pigmented stain with a silky finish for a fall photo shoot.
Reviewers compare to products like Charlotte Tilbury Matte Revolution, YSL Velvet Cream, and Tartist Creamy Matte Lip Paint.
Promising review: “This is velvet, full coverage without feeling like glue on your lips. It does transfer. The color is very pigmented so what you see is what you get. Honestly one of the best lip color products I’ve ever used, I put this above Charlotte Tilbury.” —Lexi Lee
Get it from Amazon for $9.90 (available in 26 shades).
27. And finally, a pair of stretchy wide-leg trousers so you can go straight from the office to a date or a night out on the town without having to go home and change first.
