Zip Top Reusable Silicone Containers (Set of 3)
Since these containers are made from food grade silicone, they're not only reusable but also can store more than just snacks, leftovers and lunches. They're a sustainable alternative to plastic bags and since they don't require lids, all you need to do is seal them shut. Plus, they're freezer-, microwave- and dishwasher safe.

Long gone are the days where you need to transfer your pasta and veggies to another pot after cooking them. This neat little attachment can be placed directly onto pots, pans and bowls to make straining a breeze. You don't even have to hand-wash it as you would another pot, since it's dishwasher safe.
PopBabies Personal Blender
Whether you're always on the go or simply don't want to wash an entire blender each time you crave a smoothie, this tiny-but-mighty blender might be your next favorite thing. It comes with its own ice tray that makes small cubes, so it can crush them on its own. It's also rechargeable, so you don't have to worry about replacing any batteries.
