We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A touchless stationary vacuum that might leave your dustpan without a job. You can sweep over dirt and hair and watch as the vacuum sucks it all up. Then, you can empty the dirt into the trash. Tell the kids it's like playing hockey with dirt. Now, shoot for the goal!Â
EyeVac is a small biz that creates touchless and bagless vacuums.
An indicator light will turn on to let you know that the canister is full, and then you can remove the canister and dump the debris in the trash.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this magic floor sucker. I live in the Rocky Mountains with four large dogs and two cats. It makes sweeping not so bad and much more manageable. You just sweep it to the vac and it sucks it up. LOVE IT." âMaryKat
Get it from Amazon for $114 (available in six colors).
2. Dawn Powerwash dish spray set ideal for people who hate washing dishes. Let me explain. With this power wash spray, you can spray soap on the dish right after you use it, give it a wipe, a rinse, and you're done. No more running a full pan of dishwater, washing as you go is the new way to go!Â
This is one of my must-haves in my kitchen. I hate washing dishes but having this makes it easy to quickly wash a dish before the sink starts to pile up.Â
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly says: "I live in an apartment without a dishwasher, and I honestly use that as an excuse to order takeout food instead of cooking. But, as soon as I got my hands on a bottle of this stuff (regular Dawn is my go-to dish soap, BTW), I put it to use on both a saucepan I used to make homemade enchilada sauce *and* the casserole dish I baked those enchiladas, which had a ton of caked-on food. It really does work like I say it does! Like, scary well."
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
3. A steaming microwave cleaner for when the "soften butter" instruction goes horribly wrong. Just fill this mama with water and vinegar and pop her in the microwave. She'll get mad, blow her top, and leave your microwave looking brand new. Your Scrub Daddy will be glad to have the day off.Â
Promising review:Â "This product is so amazing, I'm going to get one for all of my children. I am a teacher, and I let my students use my microwave. Usually it takes me half an hour of scrubbing after 31 students have made popcorn, and heated up lunches. This time I used the product, and I literally spent less than one minute just wiping down the microwave!!! I will now keep one in my classroom, and one at my home. A miracle product that actually does what it says, remarkable!!!" âDesiree Barlow
Get it from Amazon for $8.99Â (available in three colors).Â
4. A Roborock cordless wet dry vacuum, a godsend for homes with hardwood floors, especially with curious little kids who tend to get a little messy. You won't have to worry about grabbing a mop and then a broom after each spill. This vac can tackle both at the same time. Â
Promising review: "Â My kitchen and the basement have always been the high-traffic area with three kids and a dog roaming around. I am so happy I finally got the Dyad to do all the vacuum and mop in one run to keep my floors clean. Dyad came in with all the parts already pre-installed. It was easy to set up took me less than 10 mins. My kitchen floor is made from natural stone tiles. The surface easily traps dirt and stains. In the past, I had to sweep the floor first, then mop with cleaners several times. Dyad did a great job picking up debris and dirt from the corners and between tile grouts. It also cleaned and removed the dark spots and stains in one mop. I was very impressed. With the full tank of the solution, I was able to clean the kitchen floor multiple times. The battery lasted for a long time. I charged the vacuum to 100% before using it. When I got a voice alert to empty the dirty water container, the battery was at 75%. I like the self-cleaning function in Dyad. All I had to do was empty the dirty water container again after rinsing the rollers. I can't wait to use Dyad in the basement next. :-)" âRC
Get it from Amazon for $449.99.
5. A can of fume-free oven cleaner you should consider using because you never really pay attention to the inside of your oven and it's starting to look as bad as Tiffany Valentine after burning up in Bride of Chucky.
Promising review: "I rarely write reviews, but this stuff is straight magic!! When we moved into our new home, the oven was disgusting! I absolutely HATE cleaning a freaking oven, but after reading the reviews, I decided to give it a shot. For less than six bucks, what the heck, Iâll give it a try! Sprayed it on last night, got up this morning and wiped it out with nothing but paper towels and BAM! My new favorite cleaning product! Iâm going to end up doing it again tonight just to have it all sparkly, because like I said, this thing was disgusting, and there were a couple of spots on the door and in the bottom that I missed. If I had felt like putting more effort into it, I could have scrubbed it clean, but letâs be real here, ainât nobody got time for that! If youâre questioning whether this stuff works, just buy it and prepare to be blown away!" âBrittany Douglas
Get it from Amazon for $6.57.
6. A llama-shaped duster that's remarkably adorable and works so surprisingly well. You'll probably start Googling llama puns just so you can include them in a positive review.
Promising review: "The only thing that makes dusting bearable is if I get to hold a llama while I do it. I was super shocked at how fast I got it! It's so cute I don't even want to dust with it, but when I did (because man, my house needs to be dusted) it clung to the llama! Which then made me feel slightly bad for the llama being all dirty, but looks like it cleans easily, too! Thank you! Now I have a reason to clean." âTourmalina
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
7. A reusable weighted bottle cleaner for a new dance move that'll leave your water bottles nice and clean. Just drop, shake, and empty. Your liquids will probably taste better now that you've restored your bottle to its former glory.Â
Cleanzy Sponges is a small biz started when the founder, John, had trouble cleaning drink containers. This lil' gadget makes it so much easier to get your bottles clean. Each sponge lasts about four months.
Promising review: "The Cleanzy Sponges are awesome!! They are so easy to use, and they really clean your water bottles! I actually donât mind cleaning my water bottles now! I received the Cleanzy Sponges pretty quick, too! Itâs definitely worth the money, and they are cute!" âSharon Baker
Get it from Cleanzy Sponges on Etsy for $9.99.
8. A microfiber window blind cleaner just begging to ~wow~ the crowd by showing you just how disgusting the in between crevices of your blinds can be. Don't worry, I'm not judging.Â
The cleaner also comes with five microfiber duster clothes.
Promising review: "Where has this blind cleaner been for the past 50 years???? I have struggled to keep my blinds clean for so many years and happily found this item. It WORKS!!! And I love that it comes with extra sleeves, and the sleeves are machine washable. The handle is plastic, but I feel confident it won't break any time soon." âmarionvgt
Get the six-piece set from Amazon for $7.99 (also available in green).
9. A microfiber spin mop reviewers say makes mopping quick and easy and helps the floors dry faster, too. Quick dry floors means you can quickly tackle this chore and move on to the next thing on your to-do list.Â
Promising review: "Ashamed to say, but I barely ever mop the floors. I purchased this O-Cedar Mop and Bucket based upon the great reviews. I am here to add a 5-star review of my own. This mop and bucket not only cleaned my floors, but it made the entire process easy (and dare I say fun?). I did the entire first floor of my house both tile and wood. Then wanted more fun, so i scooped up the handy handle and carried it upstairs where I continued on to the bedrooms and bathrooms. I don't want to go on and on, but this mop picked up lots of dirt and grime, then popped easily into the washing machine. It came out great. The swirly thing makes all the difference. It wrings out all of the excess water, so it's easy to mop without using too much muscle, which I do not have. And the mop heads are short, rather than long mop heads, which only make for heavier mops. If you're on the fence, go for it, you'll agree." âLauraP320
Get it from Amazon for $53.99.
10. An all-natural yoga mat cleaner spray useful for removing that sweaty residue from your yoga mat in time for your next session (because the last time you got in downward dog, the smell snapped you right out of the zone and you couldn't find your center for the remainder of the class). Â
Asutra is a WOC-owned small business making natural self-care products at an accessible price point. The products are made with organic plants, minerals, and essential oils and do not contain parabens, phthalates, or petroleum. This mat spray is made with tea tree oil to help kill bacterial on the mat. It also comes with a microfiber towel to help you clean.
Promising review: "I teach yoga and have recommended this product to many students and fellow teachers. I love the scent and performance of this mat cleaner spray. It doesn't leave a weird residue like others I've used, especially with the help of the little cleaning towel that comes with the purchase. I will definitely order again." âHeather
Get it from Asutra for $12.99 (available in three scents) or from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in 12 scents and packs).
11. A fizzing toilet tablet in case you want a ~set it and forget it~ way to clean your toilet. Just toss a tab in the bowl, watch it fizz for an oddly satisfying moment, and then flush. It also keeps the bowl smelling like anything other than a toilet, thankfully.Â
Pardo Naturals is a Black woman-owned small biz founded by Rita Pardo who created natural body, hair, and home products that wouldn't irritate her daughter's severe eczema.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Melanie Aman says: "For all the folks who don't enjoy cleaning the toilet â myself included â these dissolving tablets make quick work of a grimy bowl. The tablets are a little hard to dislodge from the plastic container (though that does make me feel confident that they're secure during transit and won't break; mine all arrived intact!), but once you get one out, you drop it in the toilet, and let it do its thing. It'll start fizzing â just like a bath bomb â loosening any stains and streaks in 10 minutes so they come away with a light brushing. I never let the toilet get too bad (and usually it takes awhile for me to notice any buildup since there are only two people in the apartment), so I can't vouch for them if you have really set-in hard water stains or haven't cleaned the commode in six months. But if you're looking to ditch the harsh cleansers in your toilet cleaning routine, this is a great addition to your lineup."
Get six tablets from Pardo Naturals for $10.50 (available in seven scents).
12. A set of scrubbing attachments to put the elbow grease into cleaning without making you work twice as hard. These attachments fit onto your drill and adds an extra power behind the scrub brushes to tackle bigger projects in half the time.Â
Promising review: "We originally purchased this to scrub our tile floors and grout in the bathrooms. We have a dog who slobbers everywhere and the only way to clean it is to use elbow grease. This thing is magical! Weâve used it on the walls (no paint removed), based boards, door jams and doors, windows, floors, and cabinets. Just dip it into warm soapy water and go to town! Recommending this to all our friends. Cuts cleaning time in half!" âA. Bos
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in six colors).
13. An all-natural surface scrub made with simple ingredients so you can feel confident cleaning your house without worrying about harsh chemicals.
Friends Holli and Jennifer started Humble Suds in 2014 to create trustworthy and clean cleaning products. The cleaners are made with plant and mineral-based ingredients and are always disclosed.
Promising review: "Holy moly, this stuff is like magic. I am allergic to everything, even air, I swear. But I have no issues at all with this product, and it does the job super well. Buy some. I mean it. Like NOWâ„â„â„" âBrassy
Get it from Humble Suds on Etsy for $14.95+ (available in two sizes).Â
14. A cordless Black & Decker hand vacuum designed to make it that much easier to clean up tiny messes without having to grab the big dog (aka the upright vacuum). It features a pullout crevice tool that you can flip up to help you get a more detailed cleaning in your home or car.Â
Promising review: "Ok y'all, my 2-year-old loves helping me clean now because of this dustbuster! It is the perfect size for her to help out! Plus, it is powerful enough for me to use to clean out my car as well. It's super easy to empty and clean. I'm very happy with this purchase!" âAshley Rawlins
Get it from Amazon for $44.99.
15. A stainless steel cleaner made with natural essential oils to safely remove water marks, residue, and grease from your steel sinks and appliances. A couple of sprays and wipes and it's back to looking model-home new.Â
Plus, it comes with a microfiber cleaning cloth!
Promising review: "I was hesitant because other cleaners werenât great. They either didnât work or left a weird residue that dust would stick to. This cleaner doesnât leave a residue and actually works! Highly recommend!" âCourtney B.
Get it from Amazon for $16.95.
16. An eco-friendly washable sponge because spring is the perfect time to tidy up your house. And, if you're making more eco-friendly changes in your household, this sponge could be a great addition. Just pop it in the washing machine or dishwasher and it's ready to be reused again.
Marley's Monsters is a woman-owned business creating eco-friendly essentials from Eugene, Oregon since 2013. This sponge is made from 100% cotton terry cloth on one side and 100% cotton flannel with 100% polyester mesh over it. It's also mildew-resistant, washable, and hypoallergenic.
Promising review: "This was my second purchase of these sponges because we love them so much and wanted more. The first are still in great shape, I just wanted to be able to have more in the rotation so we have some when others are sitting in the laundry pile. I wish I had gotten reusable sponges years ago!" âKasey
Get it from Marley's Monsters on Etsy for $12+ (available as a single or a three-pack and in four colors).
17. An automatic litter box ~purrr-fect~ for cat parents looking for litter box options that allow them to go weeks without scooping, cleaning, or refilling their fur baby's box. When it is time to clean, simply remove the tray and throw it away.Â
The litter box comes with a pre-portioned package of litter that you pour into the tray. It will clean 20 minutes after it's detected that your cat has left the box. It will alert you when the tray is full, so you can remove and dispose of it.
Promising review: "I've considered an automated litter box for years but kept putting it off. I'm so glad I finally got one! It sets up easily, both the litter box itself and the phone app. Our cat adapted to it immediately. Actually, she was climbing inside while I was putting it together and started using it regularly right away. The app shows when it detects the cat entering the box and when it rakes the box clean 20 minutes later. There has been absolutely no smell at all! Today the app alerted us that it was time to replace the litter (right at four weeks from installation.) Our auto-delivery of the replacement litter arrives tomorrow. To change it out, we'll just lift the plastic unit up, slide out the old box (the soiled litter is under a flap), and use the lid below it to place on top then discard. After a quick wipe down with a sponge, the new box will slide underneath and we'll be good for another month. The cat loves having a fresh litter box every time she enters and we are thrilled about not having to deal with cleaning it!" âterry
Get it from Amazon for $169.95+ (available in three styles).
18. Some Oh Yuck jetted tub cleaner because you vaguely remember a time when the water in your jetted tub was crystal clear. Now it's gone from a cloudy substance to literal mud â time to clean.
Promising review: "This stuff is magic! We've lived in our home for four years now and had never used our jetted tub. One day last week I decided I needed a nice long soak, filled up the tub only to discover the water was rusty and yellow (SICK). I looked up online what the best way to clean a jetted bathtub was and Oh Yuk came up over and over. Now I know why, this stuff is a miracle worker! We ran it through our tub several times until it was clear. We were so impressed, I purchased another bottle as a housewarming gift for my sister-in-law who is moving into her new house next week. You will not be disappointed, and I'd be shocked if the first words out of your mouth when you use this stuff weren't 'OH YUK'!" âKimmy D
Get it from Amazon for $16.99.
19. A car upholstery cleaner formulated to remove dirt and grime from upholstery, fabric, canvas, leather, vinyl, plastic, rubber, wood trim, metals, and more.
Promising review: "I tried everything to get my car mats clean, they have hexagonal wells that look cool but collect all kinds of crud. Nothing I tried would get all the stuff out. The advertising on this seemed too good to be true, but the reviews seem to support the hype. I'm here to tell you this stuff is magic. My mats look like they are brand-new. I didn't really scrub or brush them at all â I rinsed them down then sprayed this stuff on and then used a brush to just spread the solution evenly into all the wells. Let sit for 15 minutes, then rinsed. A miracle." âanthony
Get it from Amazon for $16.99.
20. A 100% natural oven cleaning kit with an eco-friendly formula to gently and quickly scrub away all of that built-up crud in your oven. Who is this grown-up using environmentally friendly products and actually cleaning their oven? You are!
Everneat is a small business based in Fairfield, Connecticut specializing in natural cleaning products and tools. The kit includes a jar of oven scrub, an all-purpose cleaner, and a metallic sponge that should be used in conjunction to get the best results.Â
Promising review: "I admit, I was skeptical â but this stuff is like magic! I got the kit, and the concentrate cleaner and oven scrub both worked so well I could hardly believe it. I wish I'd taken before and after pictures!" âPaige NewMyer
Get it from Everneat on Etsy for $27.99+ (available in two jar types).
21. A robot mop that's pretty much one of the best inventions ever because it literally does the chore of mopping for you. Oh yes, no hands! It's like having a personal housekeeper. Now, if we could just find one that cleans windows đ€.Â
Promising review: "I love my Braava jet; it mops so I don't have to. I've had it for about six months and it makes my floors absolutely sparkle. It's not heavy duty; if you want something that really scrubs your floors, this won't do it. But a regular, gentle mop that keeps a floor clean and dirt/dust free? Absolutely. It picks up perfectly where my Roomba leaves off and grabs what it missed." âDanielle
Get it from Amazon for $179.99.
22. A carpet cleaning solution in case you've completely forgotten what the original color of your carpet was. It's easy to feel like the carpet is so destroyed it'll never look clean again, but this carpet miracle is just that, and will have your carpet restored in even the most high traffic areas of your home.Â
This cleaning solution is made by Sunny & Honey â a family-run small business that specializes in cleaning products, especially ones for homes with pets!
Promising review: "Carpet Miracle is the absolute best product I have ever used! I have six kids, three dogs, and two cats. You can't even believe the messes that have happened in my house. But this product is basically magic. One of my kids spilled black acrylic paint on my two-weeks-brand-new carpet last year and carpet miracle got it completely out. There's not even a shadow left. I also use a cap full in stinky loads of laundry. It gets the smell out of anything! And there hasn't been a stain yet that this product hasn't defeated." âLyndsey
Get it from Amazon for $19.97.
23. A weekly, bleach-free shower spray that'll let you spray and forget your shower, letting the cleaner do the work for you. Reviewers say it can take on big jobs and is definitely worth the buyđđœ.
Promising review: "I really didn't believe the reviews that said you can spray it on shower soap scum, then come back in a day and the soap scum is gone. But that's exactly how this magical liquid works. I had a shower that was badly soap scummed, so I sprayed a good amount of this Wet/Forget stuff and left (this is a house we were moving out of). When I came back a few days later, the tiles looked like a brand new shower. I now spray my shower once a week, and I'm pretty sure I will never see soap scum again. Whoever invented this stuff deserves an award." âFar Left Texas
Get it from Amazon for $16.89.
24. A screen cleaner kit with the power to give you back that HD quality picture by ridding your screen of dust, dirt, and fingerprints. You won't have to wonder if it's a bug or a piece of lint covering up your perfect view of Sebastian Stan.Â
The spray is free of alcohol, ammonia, and harmful phosphates. You can use it to clean any screen, including HDTVs, PC monitors, tablets, laptops, smartphones, and more!
Promising review: "A miracle! I've been looking for this product all my life! I have a nice 42-inch smart TV that I hate cleaning. Every product I used left streaks everywhere so I'd use more and rub and rub...Make sure your screen is cool and spray an ample amount on the cloth provided and smear it everywhere. Then flip the cloth and rub it off. I think this is truly one of the greatest breakthroughs in modern history. They give you a huge can of this stuff and a quality cloth." âPaul Wedero
Get it from Amazon for $16.97.
25. Cleaning putty, a must-have for those nooks and crannies in your car that never seem to get clean. The best part is that you can reuse it over and over.
Promising review: "I was thrilled with how well this cleaned my keyboard, as a cleaner, but as a last resort, today I tried it to unstick some keys on my keyboard that wouldn't unstick using normal "unsticking" tricks. It so very easily "unstuck" the stuck keys, just like magic. Everyone should have this on hand. It picks up crumbs that drop into the keyboard and fall around the keys and works so easily. It's sort of like the putty we played with as kids. You really can't go wrong with this, and it's reusable. Just put it back into the jar and use it again. It couldn't be easier to use. I very highly recommend this gel. It makes cleaning fun." âDreamyOne
Get it from Amazon for $6.88.
26. A mold and mildew remover for a simple no-scrub way to get rid of the mold and mildew that seems to have moved in with you, refusing to leave. All you have to do is apply it, and in six to eight hours, this mold and mildew remover will send that scum packing. đ§ł
Promising review: "You guys. Iâm 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 donât know why it doesnât 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." âKarynB
Get it from Amazon for $13.99.
27. Reusable microfiber pads compatible with your Swiffer WetJet that can be used an all surfaces. The microfiber pads have dual scrubbing power and are machine washable so you can use them over and over.
Promising review: "I wish that I had discovered these long ago! They work better than disposable pads! Not to mention that they are so much better for the environment and super easy to use. Our laminate and tile floors shine. Easy to throw in the wash and air dry. GREAT product!!" âG. P. Johnson
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $24.95.
28. A pair of scrubby gloves capable of making washing dishes seem less daunting. Wearing the gloves will not only protect your fingers from the grossness of touching old food, but it'll also scrub the dishes at the same time. So instead of using a sponge or dish rag you can simply massage the dishes until they're clean.Â
Promising review: "I was a bit skeptical when purchasing these gloves, but the reviews were excellent, so I went ahead and bought them. I am so glad I did. I have small hands, but these gloves fit fine. Two things I really love about these gloves: 1. water does not seep inside (pet peeve of mine) and 2. they are easy to get on and off repeatedly (second pet peeve is when you need to wait until the gloves dry to get your hands back in them). The gloves do an excellent job cleaning the dishes and kitchen. I have not used them to do other rooms in the house but will be purchasing another pair to tackle other cleaning jobs." âBabs
Get them from Amazon for $14.99.
29. EcoTools makeup brush shampoo perfect for cleaning your makeup brushes and sponges without leaving behind residue. It's also cruelty-free and vegan. Keeping your makeup brushes clean can help reduce breakouts. If you love playing in shadows and blushes, make sure to fit brush cleaning into your weekly routine.Â
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Heather Braga says: "After reading about how necessary it is to actually clean your makeup brushes (I know, I KNOW, I shouldâve been doing this for years) I was super grossed out and motivated to order the right supplies to do the job. Iâve heard good things about Ecotools makeup brush cleansing shampoo, so I figured Iâd start there. The Amazon listing also suggested buying a silicone makeup brush cleaning pad to go with it so I figured... why not? Well, now Iâm patting myself on the back because ordering these two items was a GAME CHANGER!
I could not believe how much residue came off my brushes in just one cleaning. You only need to use a little dab of the shampoo, so one bottle will definitely last a long time. The silicone pad made it super easy to thoroughly lather the brushes without leaving my bathroom sink in shambles. I also loved how each section was labeled with which brush should be cleaned in each area. My brushes look brand-new! Donât hesitate like I did â buy both the shampoo and the mat ASAP."
Get it from Amazon for $7.99. And you can get the same silicone mat she used (behind the brushes in the photos) from Amazon for $6.99.
30. A foaming garbage disposal cleaner because no one really knows how to clean a garbage disposal. This takes all the guesswork out of it and leaves you with a lemony fresh scent afterwards.
Promising reviews:Â "We moved into a townhouse that had a garbage disposal in the kitchen. I never had one growing up and didn't think too much about it until the funky smell started. I researched ways to clean it and came across these. Decided to order a four-pack and try them. THEY AREÂ LIFE-CHANGING. Just run some water, toss the packet in, and turn on the disposal. The little packet does all the hard work for you. I order a new set as soon as we start to run low." âlucas broshears
