While watching a really good episode of This Is Us or cozying up to a classic movie on Netflix, there's always that awkward question of: Where do I put my drink?

Balancing a wine glass on the flat part of the couch sets a high risk of spillage and leaving stains. Holding the cup in your hands isn't comfortable for long periods, and TV trays are functional, but not terribly cute and take up a ton of space.

This is where CouchCoaster comes in. This nifty little device is designed to keep your drink safe and sound, right on the arm of your couch or sofa. Its silicone arms can be wrapped over the armrest, tucked between seat cushions, draped over the back rest, or laid flat. It's weighted, so accidental nudges and bumps won't send it (and your drink) flying.

The adjustable cup holder works with all shapes and sizes of cups and bottles, with a mug handle slot if you're catching up on the news with some hot morning coffee, or sipping on a skinny bottle of kombucha. CouchCoaster comes with a slip-in adaptor to create a tighter, no-slip fit for bottles and cans.

Amazon reviewers are already loving this invention: it has more than 300 reviews and an average 4.3 star rating. "I wasn't sure this would work very well on a rocking chair... Turns out it works great!," says one reviewer. "I am very impressed with how it holds when the chair is moving, even in the reclining position."

Another user says: "A product that's perfect for my laziness. Fits on my super wide couch arms. Weighted so it won't slip." And, you can choose from five different colors that go with pretty much any decor.

Right now, CouchCoaster costs $23, which is 62% off its original price: Not bad when you think about the time and money you'll save from cleaning up spills on the sofa you spent hundreds of dollars on.
