What’s to love: Are you a renter who isn’t allowed to put holes in the wall? These hooks are removable and reusable.

What does it do: You really don’t have to be a renter to appreciate these hooks that stick to smooth, hard nonporous surfaces. They are waterproof, so you can use them to hang your soap on-a-rope in the shower or hang your rings by the sink.

They stick to painted drywall, plasterboard, tile, laminate, glass and stainless steel. However, the company doesn’t recommend use on◊at or matte paint or wallpaper. Just peel and stick to a clean dry surface. If you want to move it, peel it off, then wash the hook with warm soapy water,air dry and then it is ready to use again. The hooks come in a variety of sizes and weight limits.

GrillComb

GrillComb

What’s to love: No more sliding and spinning shrimp or vegetables.

What does it do: It is almost grilling season (we hope).

The GrillComb holds your vegetables and meat in place while you grill. Place the food on the teeth of the food-grade stainless-steel 12-inchlong comb for an easier shish kebab. The teeth keep the food secure while cooking, & flipping or taking it off the grill.

Made by Fusionbrands, the grilling tool sells for $10.99 for a set of two.
