RYOBI 18V ONE+ Drain Auger

What's to love: An 18-volt battery-powered auger with a reinforced 25-foot cable that minimizes kinking.

What does it do: This auger is part of the RYOBI 18V ONE+ system of tools that shares the same rechargeable battery. It can be used to clear clogs from drains up to 2-inches wide. A powered forward and reverse cable feeding system prevents user fatigue, and the auger includes a cable clamp that holds it in place when trying to remove a tough clog. A drain port in the cable drum prevents water from building up inside the drum. The auger comes with a three-year warranty and sells for $69.97.

Zipbuds Juiced 2.0

What's to love: Tangle-free earbuds with patented zipper cables.

What does it do: The earbud cords zip together to prevent tangles and resist knots when not in use. This also allows the user to choose a snug or loose fit when wearing the earbuds. The earbuds are angled and come with three sizes of tips for a secure and comfortable fit, and are designed to block peripheral noises. Price is $29.95.
