Sometimes in the wild, wild world of online shopping, an item will emerge from the chaos and become a massive hit. You’ve maybe heard of the notorious Amazon coat, which accelerated as fast as a Formula 1 race car. Well, these are the latest overnight successes on Amazon — so you’re going to want to jump on them right away.

One of my absolute favorites from this list is a detangling hair brush that’s earned more than 41,000 perfect five-star ratings from reviewers who love the way it glides through strands without tugging, thanks to its bristles that separate hair sideways — instead of down.

I also want to point out this bamboo cheese board that cheese lovers are flipping out over: It has a drawer built right into it, with four wood-handled slicers and forks hidden inside. The space-saving design is genius, and makes hosting so much easier.

There’s more on this list — so get going, and get your fill of these genius Amazon finds now.

With fun packaging that’s designed to look like a wine bottle, this stain remover is specially designed to get red wine out of carpets, fabric, upholstery, and more, without peroxide, chlorine, phosphates, sulphates, or parabens.

It works with any type of hair removal — including waxing and shaving — and the easy-grip handle gives you complete control.

Let me just tell you, Amazon reviewers are bonkers about this pet hair remover, and here’s why: Instead of utilizing one-use sticky tape to pick up hair, it traps it using two velveteen rollers that create an electrostatic charge while rolling. It just takes a few swipes, and all that fur will be shuttled into the catch chamber. When you’re done, the button lets you pop it open to dump the hair into the trash.

Control your lighting and appliances remotely — and even create schedules — with this smart switch button pusher.

With these smart Wi-Fi plugs, you can track your energy usage and control all kinds of appliances from the convenience of your phone.

This indoor insect trap is a great solution. The UV light lures the insects to the device, where a fan sucks them in and a no-mess, ultra-sticky glue board ensures they stay out of your way.
