At one point or another, We’ve all been guilty of watching those late-night infomercials and feeling slightly inclined to call the toll-free number and buy whatever miracle item it is they’re selling.

Most of the times these products end up just collecting dust in our closets after we realize they don’t seem to be quite as effective or essential as their advertising made them out to be, however, sometimes a products exceeding level of ridiculousness is made painfully apparent right from the start — like with these 12 “as seen on TV” items that surely constitute some of the worst branding and merchandise failures to ever be considered consumer “goods.”
