I bought a piece of 1.5 inch stiff foam to try to fix a sag in a bed. It didn't work but having that thick piece of solid foam around has been a life saver.
Need something flat to put a laptop on? Throw it on the foam. Going to be doing something that requires you to be on your knees for a while? Get the foam!
It went from stupid purchase to something I'd gladly replace if it broke.
My wife and I got Nextmugs, which have no app and one single button that switches between warm/hot/piping/off. I tend to drink hot coffee slowly over the course of a couple of hours, and this has been a significant quality-of-life improvement.
