00:00I apply a pretty generous portion in the morning. That lasts me all day long.
00:04Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the best and most popular Shark Tank items that can be found on Amazon.
00:11That's because our bodies were made to poop in a squat, and now there's a product that lets you squat in your own home.
00:19All it takes is for you to look away from your drink for just a second to end up in a terrible situation.
00:25As the Amazon page proudly declares, this product is, quote,
00:42Of course, it doesn't have to be used for drink tampering. It could also be handy in keeping out bugs and debris.
00:48A passionate Lori made a deal with the founders, and both have gone on to great success.
00:52The product is currently an Amazon's Choice, with 4.7 stars out of nearly 7,000 ratings.
01:13It's amazing how versatile a little slab of silicone can be.
01:16As the name suggests, it is mostly used to safely grab hot items like pan handles or soup bowls coming out of the microwave.
01:24But that is certainly not all. You can also use it as a splatter guard, storage cover, placemat, and even a jar opener.
01:31It's one of those items that seems so simple but is incredibly smart and beautifully designed.
01:36Heck, just ask the 8,000-some Amazon users who have collectively rated it a 4.6.
01:41The product was ultimately purchased by Lori, who gave the founders $75,000 for 25%.
01:47As of 2022, Safe Grabs has over $24 million in lifetime sales.
02:05Quick, name a worse combination than snacking and gaming.
02:09Okay, we're sure there are loads, but the point remains that eating messy foods and touching a controller or keyboard do not go hand-in-hand.
02:16Enter the Snacktiv, which are essentially just chopsticks that you attach to your fingers.
02:20Guest shark Kevin Hart loved the idea, and he went in with Lori to give the guys $200,000 in exchange for 20%.
02:27The company is still in business and doing quite well for itself.
02:30Snacktiv is currently an Amazon's Choice product, with 4.6 stars from over 1,300 ratings.
02:36Many have praised the product's simplicity, function, and quality materials.
03:00New parents need all the help they can get, and many will recommend the Tushbaby.
03:04According to the company, it is the only, quote,
03:07safety-certified hip baby carrier, as the product wraps around the parent's waist and allows the baby to snuggle in next to them.
03:14It's designed in a way to take pressure off the adult's spine,
03:17allows the baby to sit in the M position, and frees up a hand for chores or toys.
03:21Lori invested in the product for $200,000, and it is currently a huge success on Amazon, with 4.7 stars from nearly 5,000 ratings.
03:30There's a lot of junk out there being pushed to new parents, but this one is the real deal.
03:49The person who finds a cure for headaches will become a very rich person indeed.
03:54We're not there yet, but in the meantime, we have things like the Ice Beanie to help get us through the day.
03:59A simple product in theory, this is a cold beanie that you place on your head,
04:03and its proprietary gel tech keeps it cold for extended periods of time.
04:07Many Amazon users praise its efficiency, comfort, and fit, resulting in a 4.3 rating.
04:13As Lori claims, there is a crazy amount of competition in the headache-fighting industry,
04:17but the Ice Beanie seems to be standing out from the ice pack.
04:30Out of the way, boring old toilet paper!
04:32Dude Wipes are here.
04:33These are adult wet wipes that are 100% flushable, giving you a much more pleasant experience when you're doing your business.
04:40As per the item description, these wipes are quote,
04:43unscented, hypoallergenic, alcohol-free, and paraben-free,
04:47and they proudly proclaim that quote,
04:49billions of butts have been wiped.
04:51We love it, and so do Amazon users.
04:53With over 150,000 ratings,
04:57Dude Wipes stands tall with 4.7 stars,
05:00and is currently the number one bestseller in personal cleansing wipes.
05:04As of November 2021, lifetime sales are at $120 million.
05:10The wiping revolution is here, and it was televised.
05:19Number 24, Little Elf Gift Wrap Cutter
05:27If you're a perfectionist, then wrapping gifts can be a real pain.
05:32Every piece of tape has to be just right, and scissors often leave the paper a torn, jagged mess.
05:37Well, that's where Little Elf comes in.
05:39This is a cylindrical piece of plastic with a sharp blade embedded inside,
05:43allowing you to cut wrapping paper with laser-like precision.
05:46This is perfect QVC material, and unsurprisingly,
05:49Lori went in for $150,000 in exchange for 20%,
05:53With 4.3 stars on Amazon,
05:55users have praised the cutter's innovation and utility,
05:58proclaiming that it makes gift wrapping so much easier, and much more fun.
06:12Number 23, Sauce Moto
06:14This is why we love Shark Tank.
06:24Creative solutions to bizarre, and let's admit it, first-world problems,
06:28like not being able to dip your fries or chicken nuggets while driving.
06:32And this is exactly why we love Sauce Moto,
06:34a dip clip that attaches to your car's air vent and allows you to dunk your food with ease.
06:39It's cheap, it's functional, and it is surprisingly sturdy,
06:42resulting in thousands of satisfied customers.
06:45An Amazon's Choice product with 4.6 stars,
06:48it is clear that the Sauce Moto has adeptly solved an elusive puzzle.
07:06Makeup containers can be incredibly frustrating,
07:09a good amount of product remains trapped in the bottle as it nears its end.
07:12You're left throwing good money in the garbage,
07:14but the Spatty Daddy ensures that every last drop is accounted for.
07:18A long, thin spatula, the Spatty Daddy scrapes the bottom of the bottle,
07:22allowing you to access the makeup inside,
07:24and ensuring that none of it goes to waste.
07:26This product appeared all the way back in Season 4,
07:29and has been crushing it ever since,
07:31with 4.6 stars on Amazon,
07:33and near-universal praise for its functionality and value.
07:37So let me introduce you all to the revolutionary,
07:40Spatty,
07:43and Spatty Daddy.
07:53Believe it or not, Ring started out as a product on Shark Tank.
07:56At the time, it was called DoorBot,
07:58and while Kevin O'Leary showed some interest, a deal was never struck.
08:02However, the show brought increased awareness to the product,
08:05and it was rebranded as Ring in September of 2014.
08:08Well, it only got better from there.
08:10Shaquille O'Neal became its spokesperson,
08:12multiple investors hopped on board,
08:14and it was ultimately purchased by Amazon to the tune of $1 billion.
08:19And customers continued to love it,
08:21with the latest 2024 release holding 4.4 stars on Amazon.
08:25Now, Sharks, join me, and the next time you hear,
08:31it'll be...
08:36We've looked at ways to re-engineer coffee
08:38for something that's significantly better for performance.
08:41And it's called GoCube's Chewable Coffee.
08:44When these odd little edibles appeared on Season 8 of Shark Tank,
08:47they made a big impression in more ways than one.
08:50The Sharks seemed generally curious about the concept.
08:53Chewable coffee cubes designed to give you the caffeine boost you expect from a cup of Joe,
08:57but in a steadier and more balanced dose.
09:00They also complimented the flavors.
09:02Unfortunately, they were not so impressed with the sales pitch itself or the high valuation.
09:15Consumers, however, have seemed much more ready and willing to give GoCubes a try.
09:23Perfecto!
09:27Frywall offers a simple, elegant solution
09:30to a problem that every cook knows and hates.
09:33The world of kitchen appliances is overloaded with novelty single-use products.
09:37But this splatter protector for frying pans made a real splash when it appeared on Season 9.
09:42The design is simple but ingenious.
09:44A silicon funnel-shaped sleeve that fits into your pan,
09:47protecting you from hot oil without compromising your food.
09:51Safe at up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and available in three sizes.
09:56Frywall got the thumbs up from investor Lori Greiner
09:59and has since gone on to sell like hotcakes online.
10:09In the age of YouTube beauty bloggers,
10:11many people have started getting creative with their hair at home,
10:14meaning there is definitely a market for a product like this.
10:17Inventor Mei Liu is a professional stylist
10:19who was invited on to Shark Tank by the producers after they saw some of her videos.
10:24The CreaClip is a tool and guide
10:26that paired with Liu's tutorials enables you to cut your own hair at home.
10:30Lori Greiner saw CreaClip's potential
10:33and clearly Amazon shoppers are pleased with the results.
10:45Speaking of haircuts,
10:46CreaClip isn't the only such tool to have taken off after appearing on Shark Tank.
10:50Seen on the show two seasons later,
10:52the Cut Buddy is a simple but versatile tool
10:54for shaping and trimming your beard, hairline, mustache, sideburns or goatee.
10:59Inventor Joshua Esnard secured investment from Damon John,
11:02though Mr. Wonderful Kevin O'Leary also made an offer.
11:05Affordable and easy to use,
11:07it's little wonder the Cut Buddy took off.
11:09On the subject of beards,
11:11hats off to Beard King which also sold rather well.
11:17Yes!
11:24In our increasingly eco-aware world,
11:26environmentally friendly cleaning products are big business.
11:30But even amid steep competition,
11:32this natural alternative to detergent stands out from the crowd.
11:35Soap Nuts, also known as Soap Berries,
11:38release a natural soap when exposed to water
11:41and can be reused up to 10 times.
11:46While the Sharks may have had their doubts about the product's potential for profits,
11:49Amazon shoppers have seemingly been all too happy to embrace the concept,
11:53with 62% of reviewers giving the product 5 stars.
12:09We're gonna go ahead and call this like we see it,
12:11the spiritual successor to the Snuggie.
12:13Compared to the aforementioned product,
12:15the Comfy does give its wearer less of a cultish appearance
12:18and the material definitely seems cozy.
12:20An oversized reversible Sherpa blanket slash sweater,
12:23complete with a central pouch pocket,
12:25the Comfy's at-home appeal is undeniable.
12:28And Barbara Corcoran apparently felt it too,
12:30making brothers Brian and Michael Special an offer.
12:33Since their season 9 appearance,
12:34the Comfy has sold like crazy to overwhelmingly positive reviews.
12:39You guys have phenomenal sales.
12:40Thank you, thank you.
12:41Terrific, great sales performance.
12:50What's the biggest downside to travel coffee mugs?
12:52Cleaning them.
12:53And considering how often they get forgotten in cars,
12:56lockers, desks, etc.,
12:58they can get pretty nasty.
13:00Then there's reusable water bottles,
13:02which, due to the narrow openings,
13:04can also be a pain to get clean.
13:06Bottle Bright is the solution that inventors Seth Friedman
13:09and Justin Koenigke presented to the Sharks in season 6.
13:12All natural, biodegradable tablets that do the work for you.
13:16The Sharks were impressed,
13:17and so too are consumers.
13:19We're gonna clean a lot of bottles.
13:20We are gonna do a great business.
13:21Thank you, very good to meet you all.
13:23Thanks, guys.
13:26What's dirtier, your cell phone or a public toilet?
13:30The idea of having our phones washed
13:32is enough for many of us to clutch our devices protectively to our chests.
13:35And yet, there's no denying that phones are crawling with bacteria
13:38due to the way we use them.
13:40Addressing both of these concerns at once,
13:42this ultraviolet phone sanitizer not only cleans your phone,
13:45but charges it at the same time.
13:48Lori Greiner instantly saw its potential,
13:50especially on her QVC home shopping network.
13:53Since the deal was struck,
13:55business has been booming for phone soap,
13:57both on QVC and on Amazon.
14:00It's been just over a year,
14:01and we've done $4.9 million.
14:06Everyone loves brownies.
14:08Have you ever stopped to think about which brownie is really the best?
14:11Some people like ooey-gooey pieces of brownie cut right from the center.
14:15For others, a corner piece is the most coveted
14:18due to the delightful textural contrast it provides.
14:21For those in the latter category,
14:22this maze-like baking pan is a dream come true,
14:26shaped in such a way as to give every piece two crispy edges
14:29and make cutting a breeze.
14:31Of course, it has applications beyond brownies as well.
14:34Baker's Edge might have been a no on Shark Tank,
14:36but it's been a resounding yes on Amazon.
14:4511. Stasher Reusable Silicone Food Bags
14:54It's easy to feel guilty about the amount of waste
14:56that our households produce in the kitchen,
14:58especially when it comes to plastics.
15:00What's not easy is cutting down how much we consume.
15:03Stasher offers a convenient alternative
15:05in the form of its reusable, food-grade silicone bags.
15:08In no small part thanks to entrepreneur Kat Norie's abilities as a salesperson,
15:12it secured substantial investment from Mark Cuban
15:15when it appeared on the show in 2018.
15:18Since then, it seems to have lived up to its potential,
15:21delighting customers on Amazon.
15:2410. Vybz High-Fidelity Earplugs
15:27This is what inspired me to create Vybz.
15:29High-fidelity earplugs designed for music.
15:32You don't need to be a professional musician
15:34to appreciate the benefits of high-quality earplugs.
15:37Kevin O'Leary expressed interest when Vybz founder Jack Mann
15:40appeared on the show in early 2017,
15:42but Mann was not willing to offer the royalties
15:45that O'Leary wanted in exchange.
15:47And so, Mann walked away.
15:49I'll give you the $100,000 with a royalty of $2
15:53for every pair sold until I get my money back.
15:56Clearly, he made the right move.
15:58His business has been good ever since,
16:00even tapping into unexpected markets.
16:02With over 1,000 reviews at an average of about 4.3 stars,
16:06Vybz clearly didn't need O'Leary's cash injection to thrive.
16:10I'm not interested in a royalty deal at this time.
16:16I can't hear you.
16:179. Q-Flex Acupressure Back and Body Massage Tool
16:20Okay, so first you're gonna grip the cushion grip
16:22and then you're gonna put the tip of the Q-Flex
16:24on the area that is sore.
16:25Q-Flex is proof of that concept
16:27that you really can do anything you set your mind to.
16:30Andrea Cao was barely in her teens
16:32when she came up with the concept
16:34for this self-acupressure device,
16:36which she then developed with her mom.
16:38Before Shark Tank,
16:39the mother-daughter team had sold 800 units.
16:42By 2016, after appearing on Shark Tank
16:44and receiving funding from Mark Cuban and Barbara Corcoran,
16:47they'd done over $1.3 million in sales.
16:51Based on their Amazon numbers,
16:53they show no signs of slowing down.
16:55We've gone from $20,000 in sales
16:57to half a million dollars in sales.
17:008. Rapid Ramen Cooker
17:02My name's Chris Johnson and I'm here.
17:05Boom!
17:07Ramen is one of the quickest and easiest meals
17:09you can make yourself.
17:10But as this success story proves,
17:12there is always room for improvement.
17:14Rapid Ramen Cooker is a microwavable tray
17:17specifically designed to cook your ramen quickly,
17:19perfectly and with minimal fuss.
17:21While this might seem like an unnecessary kitchen item,
17:24Mark Cuban saw its potential and made an offer.
17:27Clearly, the Shark's instincts were right in this case.
17:30With over 1,000 reviews at an average of 4.6 stars,
17:33the college kids are clearly loving this novel invention.
17:36You know what?
17:38Let's go.
17:39Awesome.
17:407. Easy Peasy Happy Mat
17:42Who has recently had or witnessed
17:45mealtime with a toddler?
17:47In our case, three toddlers.
17:49As any parent will tell you,
17:50when you've got babies, toddlers or young kids,
17:53you are fighting a never-ending battle against mess.
17:56While there's no quick fix,
17:58Easy Peasy certainly is a useful weapon
18:00to have in your parenting arsenal come mealtime.
18:02You'd think its appeal would have made Shark Tank funding
18:04a foregone conclusion,
18:06but the gap between inventor Lindsay Lorraine's valuation
18:09and that of the Shark's was just too large of a gap.
18:12Regardless, Easy Peasy clearly didn't need help to prosper,
18:15as it is doing extremely well online.
18:18Maybe this isn't the right fit, so I will pass.
18:21Good luck to you, Lindsay.
18:22Good luck, Lindsay.
18:23Thank you, guys. I appreciate it.
18:256. Simply Fit Board
18:27Introducing the Simply Fit Board.
18:29True to its name,
18:30this product is a relatively simple concept,
18:33but sometimes the least complicated ideas
18:35are actually the best ideas.
18:37The success of this exercise board is proof.
18:40A modified balance board,
18:41Simply Fit immediately caught the attention of Lori Greiner,
18:45securing an investment of $125,000
18:48for a 20% stake in the company.
18:50Within seven months of the deal,
18:52total sales hit $9 million.
18:55The over 2,300 reviews average out to a modest 3.8 stars,
18:59but people are clearly buying the product.
19:045. The Mission Belt
19:10One needn't reinvent the wheel to succeed on Shark Tank,
19:13but it doesn't hurt.
19:14Advertised as the belt that changed the belt,
19:17this updated version of the age-old utilitarian accessory
19:20gets rid of the holes
19:21and replaces them with a ratchet system for a better fit
19:24and a belt that won't wear out so quickly.
19:26Well-made, sleek, and yet somehow affordable,
19:29the Mission Belt made believers out of the Sharks,
19:31especially Damon John,
19:33who invested in the product.
19:35Since then,
19:36countless satisfied Amazon customers
19:38have similarly become converts.
19:43That's a deal.
19:44That is a deal.
19:45What a dream come true for me.
19:47Thank you so much.
19:484. Nerd Wax
19:52With Nerd Wax,
19:53Don Haney aimed to put an end
19:55to the recurring annoyance
19:56of having your glasses slip down your nose.
19:58His solution?
19:59A wax compound applied to the bridge of the nose
20:02and the glasses
20:03that provides just enough grip
20:04to keep them secure throughout the day.
20:06His business was in its fledgling stage
20:08when he appeared on Shark Tank,
20:10and a deal ultimately was not struck.
20:12But that hasn't stopped Haney
20:13from making a big splash on Amazon.
20:15Speaking of eyewear,
20:17Rita Rest Specs Secure
20:18is another noteworthy success story.
20:243. Scrub Daddy
20:32Don't let its unassuming appearance
20:33or silly name fool you.
20:35This happy little cleaning tool means business.
20:38In fact, as of 2019,
20:40it's the most successful product
20:42in terms of revenue
20:43to ever be awarded funding on Shark Tank.
20:46Invented by Aaron Krauss,
20:47Scrub Daddy is a high-tech polymer sponge
20:50that changes texture
20:51when put in cold or hot water.
20:53Lori Greiner invested $200,000
20:55for 20% equity.
20:57Clearly, it was a wise investment.
20:59It boasts over 2,600 Amazon reviews
21:02with an average of 4.5 stars.
21:04Voila!
21:05He's back to bright, fresh, and clean
21:08every time.
21:09Sharks, that's not just another smiling face.
21:112. Drop Stop
21:13Have you ever dropped anything
21:14down that gap between the seat
21:15and center console in your car?
21:17Universal problem, simple solution.
21:19Drop Stop might seem like
21:20an overly specific invention to some,
21:23but those who've purchased it
21:24are not hesitant to sing its praises
21:26or encourage others to get on board.
21:28Successfully pitched in Season 4
21:30by Mark Neuberger and Jeffrey Simon,
21:32Drop Stop is a simple product
21:34that blocks the crack
21:35between the seat of a car
21:36and its center console,
21:38eliminating the risk of dropping things
21:40into that abyss.
21:41With nearly 5,000 reviews
21:43and an average of 4.6 stars,
21:45they are clearly satisfying a big demand.

22:12People might not like to talk
22:13about their bathroom habits,
