Clearance Home Goods: Smart Finds to Refresh Your Space on a Budget

These Umbra Trigg wall planters double as sculptural decor, and during our review they added a modern geometric accent wherever we hung them. The ceramic vessel and metal frame look premium, and the included hardware makes mounting straightforward. Interior space is tight and there’s no drainage hole, so we recommend faux plants, air plants, or dropping in a tiny nursery pot with pebbles for moisture control. Some users note finish flaking over time; gentle dusting and avoiding abrasives helps preserve the plating.

We like how the OXO Good Grips POP Container 5-Piece set streamlines pantry storage with clear, stackable square sides and a push-button lid that doubles as a handle. In our testing, the dishwasher-safe pieces were easy to maintain, but we also noted reports that newer lids aren't reliably airtight and can slip or pop open when stacked or handled. Our advice: use them for frequently accessed snacks, pasta, and baking staples, and if you need true long-term airtightness, pair with containers known for stronger seals.

If your utensil drawer is chaos, this space‑saving Joseph Joseph organizer makes it far easier to find forks, spoons, and gadgets at a glance. In our review, the durable plastic wiped clean quickly and the compact footprint freed up room for other tools. That said, chunky or mixed‑size cutlery can feel tight in some slots, and the unit may be too deep for certain apartment drawers. Our experience shows items can migrate to the rear compartments—load less‑used pieces in back to minimize rummaging.

Taming the lid avalanche gets easier with YouCopia’s 40‑lid Premium organizer. In our review, the expandable base fit a range of cabinet widths, adjustable dividers kept sizes upright, and the built‑in handles made it simple to slide out for a quick grab. Note that lightweight dividers can flex; heavy glass lids may cause shifting or pop out if overpacked. Measure your space first—this unit can be too large for tight cabinets—and tighten divider spacing to reduce lids falling when you remove one.

Rubbermaid’s Brilliance set is a tidy‑fridge hero: in our testing, the silicone‑sealed lids stayed reliably leak‑proof, and the crystal‑clear Tritan made leftovers easy to spot at a glance. The stackable design maximizes shelf and cabinet space, though the lids can feel stiff to snap closed or open. Some users report cracking after extended use, so hand‑washing and careful stacking help longevity. You’ll pay more than for basic containers, but the airtight performance and visibility are worth it for weekly meal prep.

For flexible entryway storage, the Seville Classics 3-Tier Resin Slat Shoe Rack assembles in minutes with no tools and stacks vertically or bridges horizontally for modular expansion. In our testing, each shelf supported everyday footwear and small items confidently thanks to the 30-lb capacity, and the unit folds away quickly when not needed. Note that stacking pins may not screw in fully, causing wobble when tiered, the shelf depth is tight for larger men's shoes, and materials feel lighter than heavy-duty racks.

For quick, budget-friendly storage in a tight spot, the Furinno Turn-N-Tube 5-Tier Corner Shelf assembles in minutes with no tools and tucks neatly into unused corners. In our experience, it's perfect for light decor, plants, and small baskets, helping free up floor space in studio apartments or bedrooms. Trade-offs include plastic tubes that feel flimsy compared with solid wood or metal, limited shelf weight capacity, and occasional finish imperfections - so keep heavier items elsewhere.

If you want fuss-free weekday cooking, T-fal's Ultimate Hard Anodized 3-Piece Fry Pan Set offers slick, titanium-reinforced nonstick that releases eggs and sauteed veggies with minimal oil and easy cleanup. We found the Thermo-Spot heat indicator genuinely helpful for preheating to the right temperature, reducing guesswork and hotspots. Trade-offs: these pans aren't induction compatible, the coating can wear with heavy use or misuse, and the smaller pans don't include lids, so plan accordingly.

Few budget pans sear like this Lodge cast iron. In our testing, the skillet’s excellent heat retention delivered deep browning and even cooking, and the pre‑seasoned surface improved with each use. Be prepared for heft—the pan is significantly heavier than non‑cast options—and the short handle gets very hot, so a mitt or silicone cover is a must. Our experience shows consistent care (drying thoroughly and periodic seasoning) keeps sticking at bay and extends the skillet’s lifespan.

This Nordic Ware half sheet pan is a workhorse—our cookies and veggies baked with impressively even browning thanks to the natural aluminum. The encapsulated galvanized steel rim adds rigidity that helps prevent warping at high temps, and the price is great for a pro‑style pan. Plan to hand‑wash; dishwashers can discolor aluminum, and metal utensils will scratch the surface. Also note, slight size differences mean some silicone mats or Silpats may fit with a small gap or buckle.

Tackling grout lines or tight corners gets much easier with the Rubbermaid Reveal Power Scrubber; it's lightweight, ergonomic, and runs on AA batteries so you can grab and go. During our review, it lifted surface grime and stains effectively in bathrooms and kitchens, but its torque is modest compared with rechargeable, high-end scrubbers. Our experience shows brush head and motor durability can be hit-or-miss, and if you use it frequently, factor in the ongoing cost of replacement batteries.

The O-Cedar EasyWring Spin Mop is a convenient way to control mop dampness: the foot-pedal wringer lets you keep hands dry while the triangular microfiber head reaches corners and is machine-washable. In our testing, it handled everyday kitchen and entryway messes well, but you'll need a vigorous spin to avoid a soaking-wet head. Some users report the spin mechanism or gears failing over time, and the plastic parts can scrape delicate wood, so test on an inconspicuous area first.

During our review, the Bissell Little Green proved a budget-friendly lifesaver for fresh spills and car seat mishaps. It's lightweight and truly portable, and we found the strong spray and suction great for day-to-day surface stains, while separate clean and dirty tanks keep refills and disposal hygienic. The small water tank means more trips to the sink on bigger jobs, and deep-set or oily stains may need multiple passes. Our experience shows occasional hose/tool sticking, minor leaks, and a louder hum, but the $81 price eases the trade-offs.

Looking for an easy reset for a funky washer? In our testing, Affresh's pre-measured tablets made maintenance simple: just toss one in and let it tackle odor-causing residue and grime around the drum and door seals, whether you have a front-loader, top-loader, or HE model. We did find the cycle can loosen gunk you'll need to wipe out afterward, and it costs more than DIY vinegar or baking soda. The scent is mild, but at $11.99 from Ferguson Home, the convenience and consistency are worth it.

We like this Kasa smart plug for its built‑in energy monitoring—during our testing, real‑time and historical usage helped pinpoint power hogs. The slim body leaves room for a second plug in the same outlet, and it plays nicely with Alexa, Google Assistant, and SmartThings for hands‑free control. Downsides: the listed price is high versus basic smart plugs, it only connects to 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi, and you’ll need the Kasa app and cloud account to unlock remote access and scheduling.

For a low-cost way to add smart lighting, the TP-Link Kasa HS220 dimmer delivers easy installation and an intuitive Kasa app. In our testing, Alexa control and simple routine scheduling worked smoothly, but note it needs a neutral wire and the body can feel bulky in shallow boxes. Our experience shows occasional app hiccups may require a quick reset, yet day-to-day dimming is responsive and reliably quiet. At $21, it's a smart upgrade for most modern homes wanting convenient dimming and voice control without paying premium-switch prices.

If you're dressing a large room, eaves, or a deck, Govee's 32.8-ft RGBICW strip covers plenty of ground with vibrant multicolor effects plus adjustable warm and cool whites. In our testing, Wi-Fi app control, music sync, and voice assistant support made automation easy, though the adhesive is weak and occasional drops may need a Bluetooth fallback or quick re-pair. It isn't cuttable, so measure carefully to avoid extra length, but for flexible ambience at this reach, it's a fun, budget-friendly smart upgrade.

Swap in Moen’s brushed-nickel curved rod and your shower instantly feels roomier—the arc really does add elbow space in our testing. The corrosion‑resistant finish and pivoting mounting flanges help with longevity and easier alignment on slightly uneven walls. Installation is wall-mounted, so you’ll need to drill and anchor, and it costs more than many generic rods. Our experience shows the decorative flange covers can trap grime; a quick lift-and-wipe during regular cleaning keeps them looking fresh.

Moen's Engage 26100EP brings a handy Magnetix magnetic dock and six spray functions, giving you quick click-on/off convenience and a range from gentle rinse to more focused massage. During our review, the 1.75 GPM WaterSense flow still felt satisfying while saving water, a nice upgrade for everyday showers. Do keep expectations in check: several users report plastic parts or the hose cracking over time, and the magnetic cradle can let the wand fall if it's bumped or angled.

Looking for a wallet-friendly way to pull a room together? In our testing, the Safavieh Adirondack’s attractive patterns and colorways did a great job anchoring living areas without blowing the budget. At this Target price, it’s an easy refresh, though our experience shows shipped, folded rugs can arrive with stubborn creases—reverse-rolling, a rug pad, and a few days of weight help. Color can run warmer or cooler than photos, so check buyer images if you’re matching existing furniture.

Textured and earthy, the nuLOOM Rigo adds instant coastal‑casual warmth, and at this clearance price it’s an appealing way to define a space. The flatweave, low profile slides under furniture and doorways easily in our testing. Jute’s trade‑offs are real: edges can fray and unravel, shedding leaves debris on floors and clothing. Our experience shows airing the rug outside reduces the initial odor; pairing with a rug pad helps minimize movement and offers a buffer against wear.

The Sauder North Avenue Tall Bookcase brings a clean, open look with a powder-coated metal frame and shelves finished on all sides, so it looks good whether against a wall or floating as a room divider. In our testing, the open shelves made it easy to display plants, bins, and everyday reads, but the roughly 11.6-inch depth limits oversized art books or deep baskets. Keep in mind it uses engineered wood rather than solid hardwood and offers no closed storage, so dusting is part of the deal.
