Promising review: "I love the scent! It is strong while waiting to vacuum, but afterwards it's light and not overpowering. I had a friend stop to visit a few days after using who remarked on how fresh my house smelled. I do not like the fake smell of artificial fragrances, so it's perfect for me. It is pricy, but I've used it twice in two rooms and still have half a bottle left." —kate

Promising review: "I have a 19-year-old master bathroom toilet that had accumulated some nasty stains over time, and regular toilet brushes and cleaning products just would not remove them. I decided to try this pumice stone, and it worked like a charm! Given the nature and severity of the stains, it required some elbow grease. But 10 minutes later, I have a new-looking bowl, and I see no signs of scratching." —Happy Retiree

Promising review: "I have very hard water and we are constantly battling lime buildup on our faucets. This stuff really helps break it down so it can be scrubbed away. I also used it on a stainless pan that my husband unfortunately scorched. After a year of living with a blackened bottom, this stuff left it gleaming and looking brand new! I plan on tackling the grimy sheet pans next." —Brimming Bookshelves

Promising review: "This product does a great job leaving the screen clean and brings out picture clarity. I have found that it has an anti-static property keeping the screen dust-free for longer periods of time." —Mike from Maine

Promising review: "We just moved and the previous owners of our new house left us a wonderful amount of dust and dirt to clean. I was originally looking for just a vent cleaner and stumbled upon these multi kits. The price point is amazing and it really does seem like a do it all kit." —Ty Loli

Promising review: "Where has this been all my crazy cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-pound tabby and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing – he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using this, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care, it's THAT good." —Stephanie

Promising review: "If you have any glass light fixtures in your home you absolutely need this product. I don't think the fixture was this clear even when I bought it, and the best part is it’s just using water and the two rags." —Lisa Collins

Promising review: "Bought a new home and I noticed some dust under the stove and fridge so I bought this OXO Duster. Well, surprise, surprise! The previous owners were disgusting and I cleaned out much more than dust; dust, crumbs, toys, cereal, oats, nuts, and pills. Yuck yuck yuck. I don’t think I would’ve pulled out all this crap with any other duster." —Reading&Writing

Promising review: "This product gets the job done. I recently moved into a very small, one-room temporary lodging for work where the metal walls were caked in a layer of grime from years of build-up. I wanted a product that would get the walls clean without harsh chemicals that I would otherwise be breathing in for days afterwards in my tiny living space, and this was just the thing. It cut the grime and left behind a nice, fresh smell!" —Kay

Promising review: "LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!! In the middle of a remodel and had new LVP installed there is dirt and dust all over the new, beautiful floor. This little guy is just cruising around cleaning the floor and I love him. The fact that he will go under my couch to collect dust bunnies makes him even that much better! Will be buying him a mate for the mud room!!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "Been using Old English to maintain luster of wood finishes for years. Great for restoring older furniture or wood doors/rails. Tried this particular line to treat scratches in some baseboards. Not surprised it worked as described and the scratches were completely covered. Baseboards look like new again. Bought the three bottle package as this is an item you want to keep handy for regular use." —John R.

It can also work on toilets, tiles, shower doors, really anything that's been affected by hard water!
Promising review: "I’m impressed. I thought the container was small for the price, but a little bit goes a long way. It takes a lot for me to review, but this is worth it. Five years in the hardest calcium filled water and this is the first cleaner to remove it. I’ve tried scrubbing, only to scratch the surface. Every time I fill the water and ice at the fridge, I’m impressed by the result. I could see this working best, right at first." —Joshua N. Dufek

This FlexiSnake is great for sinks and showers in which the water takes forever to go down, plus it's reusable — just clean with hot water and soap after each use.
Promising review: "Immediately pulled up a disgusting amount of hair from my drain. I had used Drano multiple times to no avail; this is a much better solution. I agree with other reviewers that it’s a bit hard to clean off, but not impossible. Worth it for the price." —Ali

Promising review: "This product is AMAZING! You can clean both sides of two blinds at once and grip them firmly to get ALL of the dust off. Plus, it comes with five covers, so that no matter how dirty your blinds are, you'll be able to finish dusting your whole house! I also love that you can wash the covers and don't have to waste money on refills." —Sarah

Promising review: "This product worked immediately on a wine stain that was 5 months old! We had also tried different carpet cleaners on this stain previously. Needless to say this was a very set in stain. I could see the color lifting as I was spraying the carpet! This product is easy to use, and does not have a terrible odor like other carpet cleaners. It also requires minimal effort! I cannot recommend this product enough." —Kristin Hegg

Promising review: "Wow, this stuff lives up to the hype! I had it a few minutes before I broke out my baking sheets and tried it out. I used a small amount on a gentle sponge and it immediately took off months of brown stain! I like my pans to look brand new...but occasionally, one of my kids or hubby uses them for ordinary food and it leaves stains no matter how hard I scrub with dish soap! I haven’t tried it on anything other than pans, but for that application alone... I’ll never let this stuff run out!" —sweet tennessee

Promising review: "I've got to admit, when a friend raved about the miraculous powers of OxiClean, I was doubtful. Immediately upon trying it myself, however, I became a convert. This stuff works. Works on new stains. Works on old stains. Works on oil stains. Works on organic material stains. I had a top that had gotten very stained several years ago and had been through the dryer more than a couple of times since that point." —Pearl

Promising review: "My dishwasher had standing water in it, even after I cleaned the filter. We have really hard water at my house. I ran a cycle through with one in the soap dispenser and two at the bottom on the washer and it immediately fixed the problem. Works like a charm." —Nadia L.

"An embarrassing confession: my hair gets so ingrained in the carpet that a vacuum truly does nothing for it. In fact, to make matters worse, weird particles get stuck in the hair on the floor, which is stuck to the carpet, so I often was just unrooting clumps of hair from the floor with my hands (sorry for the visual). I bought this broom and it immediately started pulling it up GOBS of hair. My carpet like, genuinely changed color (turns out the pink was supposed to be much pinker, whoops). Anyway, do with that semi-horrifying information what you will." —Emma Lord, BuzzFeed Editor

Promising review: "Could not believe that this started cutting the dirt and grime IMMEDIATELY! Didn’t have to soak or scrub! Best tub cleaning product I’ve ever used. Took me 1/4 of the time to clean compared to when I use traditional chemical cleaners. No heavy scrubbing needed. LOVE LOVE LOVE." —Lesley

Promising review: "Saw the reviews and figured I’d give it a try. Our double sink has smelled weird for a while and kept backing up on the side without the disposal (we’ve never put any food down that side so it was weird). Was worried I’d have to call a plumber but this product worked! I followed the directions exactly as they said and voila! Immediately smelled better and haven’t had an issue since I used it. Definitely buying again." —LightGrey

Just add water to the sponge before proceeding to scrub away at any dirty surface.
Promising review: "I never thought I'd be able to get the weird pink soap stains out of my tub. Picture someone scrubbing with cleaning products until their arms were sore, to no avail. But this worked with no effort! It's unbelievable. Please never let this go off the market!" —Catherine King

Promising review: "You guys. I’m embarrassed to even show you this. The grout around our tub was DISGUSTING. It was never caulked right and it got gross very quickly. I would scrub. The cleaning lady would scrub. It would get worse. Well, I came across this in a BuzzFeed list, and this stuff made me curious. I don’t know why it doesn’t have 10,000 good reviews. Seriously. All I did was squeeze it on and walk away. I let it sit overnight. Check this out. Buy it. Like today." —KarynB
