You know you want them, and it's not just because it's 3am.

0:00:16.051,0:00:17.584
Welcome to WatchMojo.com,

0:00:17.584,0:00:23.755
and today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 best infomercial products.

0:00:32.162,0:00:38.123
For this list, we're looking at those products that graced our TV screens and managed to pique our curiosity.

0:00:38.123,0:00:41.745
While the infomercials themselves may have been a little bit on the corny side,

0:00:41.745,0:00:47.163
the products themselves either became commercially successful or a notable part of POP culture

0:00:47.163,0:00:50.788
- either way, they're worth a mention.

0:01:06.494,0:01:12.328
Even if you weren't in need of an inner thigh workout, this classic '90s infomercial itself was pretty….

0:01:12.328,0:01:14.306
um… interesting.

0:01:14.306,0:01:19.165
Spread eagles and spandex aside, Suzanne Somers may have played a ditzy blonde on TV,

0:01:19.165,0:01:23.197
but she was a shrewd businesswoman in reality.

0:01:27.968,0:01:30.221
She saw an opening in the market, so to speak,

0:01:30.221,0:01:35.724
and decided to help creator Joshua Reynolds fill the hip-adductor-specific-exercise void.

0:01:35.724,0:01:39.196
And thus, she bestowed upon the world a highly successful

0:01:39.196,0:01:43.558
and surprisingly versatile piece of exercise equipment.

0:01:58.382,0:02:02.532
If the dude speaking enthusiastically into the headset mic in the wee hours of the morning

0:02:02.532,0:02:08.551
didn't capture your attention, certainly the efficiency of this cleaning tool should have.

0:02:18.860,0:02:25.580
You could clean up basically a two-liter of soda and then towel yourself off and still be able soak up some more.

0:02:25.580,0:02:28.701
Or something like that.

0:02:33.092,0:02:36.896
But, it actually does hold 10x its weight in liquid.

0:02:36.896,0:02:38.921
They know; they've done tests.

0:02:38.921,0:02:43.273
Either way, it looks like a good way to conserve those expensive paper towel funds.

0:03:01.345,0:03:06.045
If you ever needed to cut through a can and then immediately slice a tomato,

0:03:06.045,0:03:10.587
these are the knives to turn to.

0:03:12.645,0:03:14.450
That's what we call multifunctional.

0:03:14.450,0:03:20.135
The genius behind the marketing of this late-'70s-early-'80s tool wasn't that they were actually Japanese,

0:03:20.135,0:03:25.484
it's that the idea that they were foreign-sounding, and that make them that much more appealing.

0:03:36.467,0:03:41.630
That, combined with their innovative and groundbreaking hard-sell infomercial approach, seemed to work.

0:03:41.630,0:03:46.912
The knives sold like crazy, thanks in large part to the impressive, knife wielding commercials.

0:04:05.776,0:04:07.869
We love our simple conveniences.

0:04:07.869,0:04:10.056
Like, instead of getting up to turn off our lights,

0:04:10.056,0:04:16.047
sometimes we'd like the ability to just clap our hands together and get the job done.

0:04:20.812,0:04:23.952
First sold in 1986 with help from a clappy jingle,

0:04:27.485,0:04:31.904
the Clapper is an ingenious invention not just for convenience sake,

0:04:31.904,0:04:37.574
but also for individuals with limited mobility who still wanted to conserve electricity.

0:04:37.574,0:04:42.831
Plus, who wouldn't feel like nobility entering their house and clapping their appliances on?

0:05:02.052,0:05:08.499
If you’ve ever fallen and couldn't get up, this handy product would’ve been helpful.

0:05:13.258,0:05:17.630
For folks in their golden years, and plenty of people in need of immediate medical care,

0:05:17.630,0:05:23.549
this commercial wasn't just an unintentionally comical product pitch - it was a godsend.

0:05:27.177,0:05:32.968
Having the ability to call for help while you're stuck on the floor can save a life, or at least a hip.

0:05:34.001,0:05:37.071
Unfortunately, it couldn't save this company, which went out of business,

0:05:37.071,0:05:42.880
only to be replaced by the similar Life Alert – but their ads are far less amusing.

0:06:00.435,0:06:01.435
Wanna get ripped?

0:06:01.435,0:06:06.666
Wanna quit the gym because you have social anxiety or just don't like hearing gym rats giving themselves hernias?

0:06:06.666,0:06:10.914
Do you have an extra bedroom to dedicate solely to the majesty that is the Bowflex?

0:06:10.914,0:06:17.093
Then this company has got plenty of not-so-subtle pieces of exercise equipment just for you.

0:06:25.196,0:06:30.839
Launched in 1986, Bowflex provided an alternative to bulky and heavy exercise machines,

0:06:30.839,0:06:35.553
as demonstrated in many commercials and infomercials.

0:06:47.717,0:06:51.807
Of course, most of us probably watched them while binging on sliders and cheese puffs,

0:06:51.807,0:06:54.620
but that's another story.

0:07:13.678,0:07:18.215
It's always cool when you find a cleaning product that's powered by the magic of oxygen.

0:07:18.215,0:07:20.646
Because oxygen is magical.

0:07:30.473,0:07:38.479
Founded in 1997, this invention was famously promoted by the ever-enthused Billy Mays until his 2009 death.

0:07:40.715,0:07:44.156
And OxyClean is not just laundry detergent, either.

0:07:44.156,0:07:46.690
You could use it for almost anything.

0:07:46.690,0:07:54.082
Actually, the most impressive aspect of this infomercial product is its ability to remove stains, including blood.

0:07:59.796,0:08:03.510
'Cause, you know, sometimes a crime scene needs a good clean up.

0:08:22.403,0:08:26.598
Sometimes you just want a single serving of frozen margarita, not a whole pitcher.

0:08:26.598,0:08:31.559
And if you're the type of individual who doesn't want to make enough frozen margarita for their friends,

0:08:31.559,0:08:34.768
then this product is right up your alley.

0:08:34.768,0:08:38.696
Now, you can hoard all the delicious beverages in your bedroom, making smoothies,

0:08:38.696,0:08:42.146
guacamole and scrambling eggs all by your lonesome.

0:08:44.567,0:08:45.798
Friends and family?

0:08:45.798,0:08:47.447
What's that?

0:08:51.513,0:08:57.740
This single-sized blender-slash-food processor-slash-juicer is all you need for a party

0:08:57.740,0:09:00.474
- or apparently the morning after.

0:09:20.320,0:09:23.941
If you ever feel ashamed because your face looks like i''s exploding on itself,

0:09:23.941,0:09:26.568
fret not for you are not alone.

0:09:29.726,0:09:31.308
Justin Bieber acne riddled?

0:09:31.308,0:09:32.890
Jessica Simpson with pimples??!

0:09:32.890,0:09:34.473
Could it be?

0:09:34.473,0:09:38.560
Apparently, yes.

0:09:38.560,0:09:41.250
And they also apparently managed to get it under control with this three-piece kit.

0:09:47.782,0:09:51.372
Developed by dermatologists and launched in 1995,

0:09:51.372,0:09:56.839
Proactiv features benzoyl peroxide and glycolic acid as active ingredients.

0:10:05.605,0:10:08.996
And while that's not spectacularly different than many drug-store brands,

0:10:08.996,0:10:12.545
the celebrity advertising has worked like gangbusters,

0:10:12.545,0:10:17.938
ensuring this company makes upwards of $850-million a year.

0:11:26.150,0:11:28.260
Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions:

0:11:31.857,0:11:37.945
This innovative Lean Mean Fat-Reducing Grilling Machine is a tabletop grill that allows the health conscious,

0:11:37.945,0:11:40.109
and tons of college students,

0:11:40.109,0:11:44.606
to cook burgers in their bedrooms or whip up paninis in their office.

0:11:56.354,0:11:59.079
Foreman himself became an ideal celebrity spokesman

0:11:59.079,0:12:04.941
and even influenced the grill's design after he regained the heavyweight title at age-45,

0:12:04.941,0:12:07.936
and attributed his success to healthy eating.

0:12:13.991,0:12:17.206
While draining off the fat appealed to those looking to shed pounds,

0:12:17.206,0:12:25.520
the ease of use and idiot-proof design made it a no-brainer for over 100-million since its launch in 1994.

0:12:39.282,0:12:40.575
Do you agree with our list?
