25 Sep 24 Features On Everyday Objects That You Have No Idea How To Use

There are a lot of objects that we are used to using on an everyday basis. We use them so often that it doesn’t cross our minds that they’ve got features we don’t know how to use. Even when we notice them, we put them down to being a design flaw.

But everyday objects are mass produced, and nothing about them is accidental. They’ve just got some features that the vast majority of us don’t know how to use – if anything, that’s the only mistake their manufacturers have made!

Here are 24 everyday objects with features you’ve got no idea how to use. Prepare to have your mind blown…

1. The hole in lollipop sticks

Because lollipops are predominantly consumed by young children, there is a hole in their stick on the off chance that a child swallows them. So if any accidents occur, the child is able to breathe! I think you’ll agree that this is a brilliant idea.

2. The metal plate on staplers

Now this one really did come as a surprise to me. There’s a metal plate in staplers which can be rotated to allow users to bend the staple outwards instead of inwards. This is perfect for any documents that you need to loosely bind together!

3. Codes on make up

Whilst this doesn’t take a genius to decipher, it’s worth pointing out. The little pots on the back of make up products let users know the shelf life of whatever cosmetic it is that they’ve bought. True me, expired cosmetics don’t look good.

4. The studs on jean pockets

They might look like the undersides of buttons which will never be used, but the studs on jean pockets actually help to hold the material in place, ensuring the you get your money’s worth from your jeans.
