| | 22 useful home and kitchen products that got their start on Kickstarter by Connie Chen on Sep 4, 2018, 3:33 PM The Insider Picks team writes about stuff we think you'll like. Business Insider has affiliate partnerships, so we get a share of the revenue from your purchase.  From how we sleep to how we eat and drink, there are many ways we live our daily lives at home that can be improved. With the crowdfunding power of Kickstarter, the creative and innovative ideas that solve these common problems are turned into real products. If not for Kickstarter, we wouldn't be able to effortlessly grow our own herbs at home and use said herbs in a sous vide recipe, nor would we be able enjoy better showers (while saving water!) and stay cool as we sleep. Though the homes of the future increasingly harness the power of tech, sometimes simple products — like a supportive pillow or a cast iron pan — can improve our lives just as well. All of the home and kitchen products below have found great success on Kickstarter, raising hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars. If you're interested in more Kickstarter successes, check out these stories: Casper Duvet — $352,000 pledged by 1,034 backers Casper's team learned that humidity, not heat, is the main culprit of many sleepers' woes, which is why they included a layer of moisture-wicking merino wool in this down duvet.
