Pebble
before February, no Kickstarter project had ever raised over $1 million, but since then, seven projects have surpassed $1 million, including the current #1, Pebble, which raised an astonishing $10 million. And this growth applies to multiple categories, not just sexy wrist watches.

Ministry of Supply set out to raise $30K and has raised $288K to date, sneaking up on the $291K raised by Flint & Tinder for their men's underwear - currently the most-funded fashion project on Kickstarter.
Coffee Joulies
Dave Jackson and Dave Petrillo, two mechanical engineers from New Jersey, were tired of the foibles inherent to coffee drinking...The team set out to raise $9,500 but brought in over $300K and is one of the top 15 Design projects on Kickstarter to date.
Ramos Alarm Clock
