20 Walmart home and kitchen deals, starting at $5

Your interior design taste is ever evolving, from season to season and year to year.

One thing that doesn't change in the home, however, is a need for storage space, comfortable bedding and cooking appliances that actually work. All those "necessities" add up; here's where Walmart comes to save the day.

We discovered that the retailer just dropped major deals on over 1,000 home and kitchen items. We're seeing $5 bath rugs, nearly half off robot vacuums and affordable storage pieces that can finally help you prepare for the change of season. We listed our favorite finds on deal below — among them, a super-cool portable closet and an entire dining set for under $200 — so you can shop them right now.

Between body washes, shampoos, razors and loofas, your shower space can get crowded fast. Avoid spills and clutter with these self-adhesive corner caddies.

There's nothing worse than returning home from a long and arduous day, only to be welcomed by an uncomfortable mattress to (unsuccessfully) rest on. A thick mattress pad like this one can make all the difference between a night of tossing and turning or peacefully counting sheep. Plus, that $150 discount won't keep us up at night with spending regrets, either.

If you're not ready to commit to a closet re-design just yet, we found a portable wardrobe to keep your clothing, shoes and accessories neat and out of the way in the meantime. According to the brand, it's easy to assemble, strong enough to hold more than you think and is dust-proof. Don't be surprised if this temporary solution turns into more of a permanent storage situation — it looks that good.

We'll probably be too busy admiring the LED backlights and charging stations built into this elegant furniture item to even notice the TV.

This toaster oven is no normal toaster oven — it doubles as an air fryer and can even be controlled through your smartphone. And for a countertop appliance, it can cook for a surprisingly large group of people — up to seven, according to the brand.
