In the Readers' Faves edition of What's In My Cart, we reveal the top products our readers can't stop buying right now, selected from our editors' latest gift recs, trending new launches and the best products tested by Good Housekeeping Institute experts.
When I looked over the most popular products Good Housekeeping readers have been shopping in the last month, I noticed a pattern. In the last 30 days, our readers purchased cozy bedding items like top-tested sheets, fuzzy slippers and silk pillowcases. Coincidence? Maybe not. After all, the first couple of months into the new year means a whole lot of sales — linen sales especially — to clear up inventory for new styles and items. Presidents' Day especially offered tons of discounts on bedding and linens.
And with the hopes for a spring refresh and Sleep Awareness Week coming up on March 9, I only see this pattern continuing on. Below, find our 12 most popular products GH readers loved this month, all of which tell us that everyone's tired right now!
Why we love it: If you have been reading our What's In My Cart series for a while, then you have probably come across these under-$50 cotton sheets once or twice. Currently the tenth most popular item in the past month, these California Design Den sheets outperformed pricier styles, acing our pilling resistance tests and holding up well in the wash. Plus, they have more than 82,000 Amazon reviews online.
What testers are saying: "The sheets are very comfortable and crisp, without being overly crisp to the point of being stiff," reported one consumer tester.
Why we love it: We've included this next pick in our best blankets and best throw blankets lists for a reason. This affordable Bedsure throw received perfect scores for softness and comfort in Lab tests. We also like that it features a velvety texture on one side and a cozy sherpa fabric on the other. One GH analyst noted that it doesn't shed fibers.
What experts are saying: "I personally use my Bedsure blanket nearly every night. It's unbelievably soft and cozy, perfect to snuggle up under when watching a movie," shared Textiles Lab Associate Director Emma Seymour.

Why we love it: This set of two pillows works out to just under $12 each. But despite the low cost, these pillows outperformed more expensive styles and didn't show any signs of shrinkage or wear in our tests. We like that shoppers can choose between two softness levels: soft (great for stomach sleepers) and medium (ideal for side and back sleepers). I always have this pillow on my bed and offer it to guests who prefer a softer feel.
What testers are saying: "I like how fluffy this pillow is and how well it maintains shape after continued use," said one tester.

Why we love it: A popular TikTok find, these adorable slippers are the most stylish way to walk into Sleep Week. Featured in our guide to the best gifts for teens, these retro slippers come in five smiley-face colors and are available in women's and men's sizing. They feature a plush lining and are designed with a non-slip sole.
What shoppers are saying: "The quality is perfect for wearing indoors, and it has good cushion. Very easy to slip on and off," wrote one five-star reviewer.
Why we love it: This popular silk pillowcase also happens to be a favorite among GH staffers who use it at home. It performed well in our durability tests and was even able to maintain its smoothness post-laundering — a major feat for silk fabric. Testers with thick, curly and frizzy hair reported that they woke up in the AM sans bedhead.
What shoppers are saying: One satisfied tester described the fabric as "the perfect weight — not too light or too heavy."

Why we love it: This cute blanket doubles as a hoodie and snuggle buddy. It features two side pockets and a larger pocket in the front that is designed to fit multiple items at once, like a smartphone and book. We like the baggy design and long length that helps keep you warm. Warning: the nigiri rolls and onigiri images may make you hungry.
What shoppers are saying: "I purchased this as a gift for my sister and I tend to steel this back from her all the time! It’s so comfortable and it’s so fun and cozy to wear," shared one satisfied Amazon shopper.
Why we love it: This top-seller has almost 100,000 five-star reviews, which isn't something you can say about every comforter on Amazon. It's machine washable, and our testers reported that it kept them at a comfortable temperature during the night.
What shoppers are saying: "This feels like it’s more expensive than it is. It washes great, is comfortable, ties into the corners of our duvet, and is soft," wrote one Amazon shopper.

Why we love it: This silk sleep mask from Fishers Finery feels luxurious against your skin but retails at just under $25. Made of 25 momme mulberry silk, this mask received high scores in our moisture-wicking tests.
What shoppers are saying: Online reviews appreciate the adjustable strap with one shopper sharing, "Most sleep masks don't have an adjustable strap, and they're too tight. This one is adjustable and super soft! I barely even notice that I'm wearing it."
Why we love it: This travel blanket includes a convenient carrying case, making it easy to take on the go — and even use as a travel pillow. Our travel pros appreciate the strap on the backside that lets you easily store the case on your luggage. Alternatively, you can use the included carabiner to attach it to your backpack or weekender bag.
What shoppers are saying: "Our entire family uses these a lot for car travels and flights. Gives me a peace of mind when the kids don’t trouble me with 'it’s too cold' in flights and in the car," shared one parent.

Why we love it: With a whopping 337,900 online Amazon reviews (and counting) this popular sheet set is a consistently popular item among our readers. Our Lab pros gave these sheets high scores for softness — with consumer testers agreeing, calling the sheets "luxurious" and "silky".
What testers are saying: "I like the softness and smoothness of these sheets. My body felt like it was gliding over them as I moved," reported one tester.
Why we love it: Boasting over 28,000 online reviews, this travel neck pillow is a crowd-pleaser among kiddos because they can choose from fun colors and patterns including navy, light purple and unicorn. We like that the adjustable arms help make it easy to find an ideal sleeping position.
What experts are saying: "We used them on a long road trip and bring them whenever we have a long car ride. [The kids] love them," shared Executive Director of Strategy and Operations Lexie Sachs.
Why we love it: Available in four solid colors, these Bluetooth sleep headphones connect to your device so you can listen to a calming playlist or your favorite podcast via the built-in speaker. It has an ergonomic design that sits comfortably over your eyes and helps block out light. You can wash the sleep headphones too, but remember to take out the Bluetooth module and wires. The brand claims over 10 hours of listening time.
What shoppers are saying: "Very comfortable to wear, blocks all the light, and the sound quality is great," wrote one satisfied Amazon shopper.
