1. A tub of The Pink Stuff which can clean anything you throw at it, be that tires, pots and pans, stove tops, showers, or your 5-year-old's crayon wall mural.
Check it out on TikTok here! And see what Shopping Editor Heather Braga has to say:
"After hearing what incredible things The Pink Stuff can do, I finally ordered it and tried it for myself. Honestly, wow! It really does work wonders. I tried it first on my Le Creuset cast-iron pan and really was amazed at how just one pass with The Pink Stuff (and a scouring brush) took off almost every stain! I can't wait to try it on literally everything in my home that needs a deep cleaning."
Promising review: "Found this product on TikTok. I don’t think I’ve ever seen value like I do this product! Literally use it on EVERYTHING!! Kids and teens have dirt, grime, and grease on their walls? ...This will make it look like a new paint job. Baseboards need some love? A pea-size amount of this makes them look brand new. Need a shoe cleaner? PERFECT for sneakers. I could name a million more uses, but I can ASSURE you this is worth every penny. What’s more? You need such LITTLE of this product, it will last a VERY long time. Thank you, TikTok!!!" —Rachel in CLT
Get it from Amazon for $4.99.
2. A Wet & Forget weekly cleaner you can spritz on your shower walls and tub after you're done cleaning yourself. Leave it on overnight — no scrubbing necessary — and just wash it off the next time you're in the shower!
Promising review: "I really like the fact that this product is true to its description! I highly recommend you do a thorough and very good job of cleaning before you apply this product or it will not make the product as effective as it should be! I highly recommend this because really who wants to clean their shower every day? This also keeps away mold and mildew how cool is that." —Stephanie Parker
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes and scents).
3. A pouch of foaming garbage disposal cleaner to eliminate the special stank that can only be produced after shredding up leftover turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and whatever that mystery blob was that came out of your long-lost Tupperware.
Each pouch of lemon-scented formula gets you four uses. Dump a pack into your disposal (while off at first!), run the water just a bit, and then start it and watch as the blue foam gets to work eliminating odors and loosening up nasties that have been caught down there for who knows how long.
Promising review: "These are amazing! I was skeptical at first, but I followed the directions (which are super easy) and was grossed out and satisfied at the same time to see the gunk that was removed. You put the entire packet down your disposal (I read that twice too) and magic happens in under two minutes! That is what I call powerful and successful cleaning! The scent is super clean and light with a hint of lemon. These will definitely be a cleaning staple for me." —KPITT
Get it from Amazon for $3.78+ (available in packs of one, two, three, or six).
4. An Angry Mama microwave cleaner that, once filled with water and a dash of vinegar, will steam clean the grimiest of appliances. Hot Pocket grease, butter splatters, and burnt popcorn smells are no match for her.
Promising review: "My daughter cooked ramen noodles for three minutes without any water. Needless to say, it was burnt and almost caught fire. I have scrubbed the microwave and couldn’t get the horrible smell out to the point it was giving me a headache. After several days I decided to ordered this before buying a new microwave. Got it today and used it and shocked it actually pulled most of the odor out that’s trapped in the upper vent. This $10 item saved me $200 to $400." —Angela D.
Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in different sizes and packs of one or two).
5. A pack of dishwasher tablets because — womp, womp — the appliance that cleans your dishes needs some cleaning of its own.
Slip a single tablet in your detergent tray (or in the bottom of the dishwasher if it won't fit in there) and set it to a regular wash cycle. After it's finished, open it up to find limescale, hard water stains, and other mineral buildup completely wiped out.
Promising review: "Buy these now!! My dishwasher looks brand new after one use. I highly recommend this product." —VSarge
Get it from Amazon for $8.50+ (available in packs of six or 12).
6. Andddd a six-pack of washing machine cleaner tablets so leftover dirt, residue, and musty odors don't affix themselves to your favorite sweater and make it even dirtier than when it went in.
Promising review: "I was hesitant to order this but it went on sale so I did. It is the only thing that has actually worked. The first time I had to use two since the odor was strong but it did wonders. I’ve run the washer with this for two months now and no odor is coming out. This is one item I will continue to order." —Klove78
Get them from Amazon for $6.60+ (available in packs of three, five, or six).
7. A bottle of wood polish and conditioner that utilizes beeswax to restore tired antiques, furniture, doors, and trim. If guests left a whole lot of cup rings on your coffee table, then this will become your BFF.
Promising review: "OMG! This is the most AMAZING product! We inherited some antique furniture from the '30s that had been in storage forever... it was dry and dirty and not much to look at. I used this product on it, and the oak wood literally came alive showing the beautiful grain and texture of the wood. I have since used it on my oak kitchen cabinets and they look AMAZING! I will never use anything else other than this product on my wood surfaces! No greasy feel... fantastic smell!" —Tiffany Sadowski
Get a bottle on Amazon for $8.36.
8. A ChomChom roller — a MUST for any pet parent — ready to put your regular old lint roller to shame. Forget ripping off sheets till you run out — this collects everything in a neat little compartment you simply empty out.
Here's what BuzzFeeder Jenae Sitzes has to say:
"I've been using the ChomChom for quite a while now, but I took the photos above literally just now to show just how quick, easy, and effective this roller is. It took 10 seconds to rid my velvet couch ottoman (yes, velvet...a terrible cat owner choice, I know) of the hair my two gray kitties are constantly leaving everywhere. It takes a bit of practice to get the hang of using this roller — at first, I thought you only brushed down in one direction, and was confused why it wasn't picking up hair. It's important to do a push-and-pull brushing in *both* directions so it actually pulls the hair inside, which does require you to apply a bit of pressure."
Promising review: "I have a long haired German Shepherd aka a 'German Shedder' and two cats so I live with animal fur — nothing I can do about it, or so I THOUGHT. The ChomChom is by far the best way to get rid of animal fur in my opinion. This thing is godlike, it makes fabric look so fresh, works perfectly on my suede couches and leaves that 'soft suede' look on them. It does what it's supposed to do perfectly, and it captures all the hair in an easy-to-clean bin. Works excellent on items like furniture and upholstery/car interior. Items like clothing or curtains need to be held down because of the rolling back and forth motion. I think it would make an AMAZING gift for anyone with pets." —Victor T.
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (also available in black).
9. And a fur-eliminating broom capable of squeegeeing enough fur from your carpet that if magically animated, it would transform into one of Martha Stewart's Chow Chows.
Promising review: "I have a fairly large silver Persian cat who generates a huge amount of impossible-to-see fur everywhere in the house (sound familiar?). This odd little broom grabs everything, especially the stuff I can’t even see. Takes five minutes, max, to de-fur an 1,800-foot house. Very easy to use and brush everything into the trash bin." —Doug Cox
Get it from Amazon for $12.98 (available in six configurations).
10. An eco-friendly carpet and upholstery deodorizer to hide the fact that someone dumped green bean casserole on your area rug.
Promising review: "Great for dog odors on fabric! We sprinkled it on the couch cushions and put them in trash bags. We shook the bags and let sit for an hour or so. We used the hose of our vacuum and sucked out the air (like you're vacuum sealing). The cushions plumped right up and smelled gorgeous for several weeks. Our very allergic daughter had no problems sitting on the sofa. We also sprinkled on carpets for great deodorizing. Fine powder that goes a long way. Adding this to our regular Amazon purchases!" —Pam
Get it from Amazon for $22.95+ (available in three sizes).
11. An easy-wring microfiber spin mop if you've been absolutely itching to give your floors a proper deep clean because your "no shoes in the house" rule went out the window as soon as your extended family came over.
Check it out on TikTok here!
Promising review: "I had had it with my broken basic mop and bucket. With three boys and a dog that makes his rounds on all the furniture and every exposed corner, I had to do something. After seeing a TikTok where a woman demonstrated this mop and hearing my boss rave about it, I decided to click the Amazon button. Let me tell you, I HATE cleaning, I HATE mopping, but I LOVE for things to be clean. I was able to mop the entire house TWICE (because it was that dirty, please don't judge) within an hour. A few days later I mopped the entire house again within 10 minutes because it wasn't quite as dirty." —Molly
Get it from Amazon for $34.97.
12. A 20-pack of melamine sponges that may not have a fancy brand name, but clean just as well as their competitors. Simply wet the nonabrasive sponge, wipe down whatever kitchen surface needs some TLC, and then rinse it to use again!
Promising review: "As good as Mr. Clean Magic Erasers but half the price. They clean so many surfaces better than anything. We use them at the bar and clean our chalkboards, metal sinks and ice wells, beer coolers, FRP backsplash walls, and even graffiti in the bathrooms comes off more easily with these than other cleaning products. I took one home and cleaned my shower faster and more easily than with bottles of shower cleaner. Highly recommended." —Stephen Brandau
Get a 20-pack from Amazon for $13.95.
Want to know more? Read a former BuzzFeeder's full review of the sponges.
13. A Bissell Little Green carpet cleaner capable of sucking up messes of any caliber. Be warned, though: Reviewers say once you start, you won't stop.
Promising review: "Everything as advertised and more!!! I lost my entire weekend once I touched this magical machine. Started with a living room rug to make sure I wouldn’t soak other fabric and to get used to the machine. Then I immediately went to the spare bedroom which has horrible pet stains. I did the entire room before moving onto the couches. The power behind the machine is incredible. INVEST!" —Annie
Get it from Amazon for $123.59.
14. Some Goo Gone kitchen degreaser sure to come in clutch when you finally work up the courage to clean behind your oven.
Promising review: "I normally never write reviews, but this product is truly amazing! It took several rounds of spraying and wiping down our cooktop but it has done wonders! I live in a rental apartment, and our stovetop was pretty disgusting with loads of stains. My roommate and I had tried other products to no avail. This products is definitely worth the money! Our before and after pictures are straight out of an infomercial! Buy this!" —Courtney
Get it from Amazon for $9.45+ (available in three sizes and packs of one or two).
15. A fume-free cleaner ready to erase years of baked-on drippings from the bottom of your oven.
The formula can be sprayed on and wiped off in as little as five minutes, but for really bad messes, some reviewers suggest leaving it on overnight.
Promising review: "My roommates and I moved into a house with an oven that looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in maybe 10 years. I bought this stuff and it literally worked wonders. I first sprayed a very thick layer and let it sit for three hours, and that got the majority of it off, but there were some still SUPER stubborn spots on the bottom of the oven and the door. I sprayed a second time after thoroughly cleaning out the first and let this one sit overnight. It came off with such little effort, I audibly gasped because I was SO excited. It’s like brand new now!!! Absolutely recommend!!!" —Emily
Get it from Amazon for $8.98.
16. Or an ~eco-friendly~ option with a blend of plant- and mineral-derived purifying and disinfecting ingredients including eucalyptus, lemon, and peppermint oils, pumice stone, and baking soda if you prefer to keep things chemical free.
Everneat is a Fairfield, Connecticut–based all-natural cleaning shop from Claudia and Angelo Zimmermann. Their oven cleaner comes with a professional-grade metallic scrubber you can use to scrub your appliance before wiping it down with a microfiber cloth.
Promising review: "Like many, I moved into a house with a used oven. Keeping the typical grease and cooking messes at bay over the years has been a challenge. I tried vinegar and baking soda, dish soap, then fume-free Easy-Off, which, although effective, is more of a hassle to apply and remove. Saw this product online and liked the non-chemical ingredients, and decided based on the reviews that it was worth a try. It's not cheap, but this is the only thing that got almost all the residue off my oven surfaces. Nice smell and didn't leave any scratches or marks." —Irish Eyes
Get it on Amazon or from Everneat on Etsy for $19.99+ (available in two scents).
17. An ~instant~ carpet spot remover you can rely on to get your space back in shape after you accidentally tripped while holding a bowl of cranberry sauce. (It happens to the best of us.)
Promising review: “Love, love, love Folex!! Super easy to use. The bottle does exactly what it says. My chairs were SUPER DIRTY from my 2-1/2-year-old grandson eating and feeding dogs. I couldn’t believe how easy it was and how clean they got after just one use. Mind blown!!” —Carobnty
Get it from Amazon for $6.65.
18. A Dawn Powerwash kit to help cut through grease and caked-on messes. If you have a tendency to let things "soak" overnight, this will come in clutch.
What's included: One reusable spray bottle and three refills.
Promising review: "We received our delivery this morning at 10 and I have already used it to clean the post-smoothie blender, wash the porch floor and pretreat grease stains on a load of spotted T-shirts. This stuff is wonderful!" —desert dweller
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 from sitting overnight. It really does work like I say it does! Like, scary well."
Get a set of four from Amazon for $17.50.
19. A nonabrasive cooktop cleaner with a cleaning pad and scraper that can get rid of burnt-on food, water stains, and persistent grease splatters.
The heavy-duty formula works on glass, ceramic, induction, radiant, and halogen stovetops.
Promising review: "Magic!! I thought my brand-new stovetop was ruined after a week!! It was so new and powerful, I was shocked when a pot boiled over and made a huge mess. In a panic (without thinking, obviously), I used a microfiber cloth and tried to clean it while it was hot — yeah I know, really brilliant — needless to say, I had a real mess on my hands. Someone suggested I try Cerama Bryte, so I ordered from Amazon, and two days later it was here and my stove looked brand new again! I can’t even express to you the relief that washed over me after thinking my brand-new stove was ruined. Thankfully because of this, it's perfect again!" —Peyton
Get the kit on Amazon for $16.48.
20. A set of reusable microfiber mop pads (yes, they're compatible with your Swiffer) so you can say goodbye to those single-use ones that are 1) expensive and, 2) not great for the planet.
They can be used wet or dry and on basically every type of flooring and even drywall if you're so inclined. Since they can be thrown in the wash, one microfiber pad can replace up to 100 single-use pads.
Promising review: "Just used these for the first time with my Swiffer WetJet and I gotta say I am impressed! Went on easily and cleaned the floors easily! I always hated the one-time use pads and never felt like they got my floor clean. This review is NOT sponsored, I bought these with my own money because I’m sick of single-use products. Seriously, buy these now!!!" —AKGross
Get a set of two from Amazon for $11.49.
21. A Clorox toilet wand with disposable scrubbing pads you can plop into the trash the second you're done cleaning. No more poo particles just sitting around on your toilet brush. 🙅♀️
What's included: One toilet wand, one storage caddy, six original disposable refills, and 10 Rainforest Rush-scented refills.
Promising review: "I love this little handy tool! I have one in each bathroom. I love that you use the cleaning sponge, then toss in away. Simple and no gross toilet brush sitting around. 😝" —Lisa Johnston
Get it from Amazon for $11.98+ (available in three bundle sizes).
22. And a jar of top-selling lemon-scented toilet bombs so you can give your loo a lift after all of those holiday meals it's had to contend with...
Happy Earth Boutique is a New Jersey–based small biz that specializes in making Earth-friendly cleaning supplies.
Promising review: "These lemon toilet fizzies work great and I love that they are earth friendly. They come in an attractive little jar so you can sit it on the toilet tank and it looks so nice! Shipping was fast, too." —Etsy Customer
Get it from Happy Earth Boutique on Etsy for $10.49+ (originally $13.99; available in two scents).
23. A tub of Scrub Daddy's PowerPaste — a naturally abrasive clay-based cleaning compound that can tackle dirt, lime scale, grease, food residue, soap, and whatever else is plaguing you.
PS: It comes with a Scrub Mommy so you don't have to purchase a sponge separately.
Promising review: "We live on the outskirts of town and our water is so hard! This is the only thing that removes those hard water stains without using heavy chemicals! I was previously using The Chemical Bros. Water Spot remover and I had to let it sit and wear gloves! After finding this, no more!" —Marissa Testerman
24. A reliable and ultra-versatile bottle of OxiClean because there are few stains it can't contend with. The oxygen-based, water-activated formula eliminates toughhhhh set-in stains on carpets, upholstery, and really anything else for that matter.
Promising review: "I'll let my pictures (above) speak to how amazing this works. I had a stained mattress that I'd been covering with a mattress pad for years. As I was preparing for a move, I decided to give OxiClean a try and see if it could remove the stains that had been there for well over SEVEN YEARS. I honestly don't even know what caused the stains, but OxiClean removed them. I took before, during, and after pictures (after pictures show the outline of water because I took them immediately after rinsing. I honestly can't believe the results. I wish I'd done this sooner!" —Little Greek
Get a 5-pound tub from Amazon for $11.19.
25. An all-natural scouring paste sure to make every surface in your home ✨sparkle.✨ I'm talking sinks, tubs, stove tops, grout, that annoying crevice between the back of the toilet and the wall — you name it!
Humble Suds is a small cleaning brand run by two moms — Holli Schuab and Jennifer Parnell — in Evergreen, Colorado. All of their products are made from powerful, plant-based ingredients and packaged with recyclable materials. They recommend applying a tablespoon of their scouring paste to a cloth and then scrubbing in a circular motion.
My Shopping team colleague Danielle Healy is a fan (she took the photos above!), saying:
"I recently moved into a new apartment, so lately I've been cleaning A LOT. Shortly after moving in, my partner and I went to store something on the top of the kitchen cabinets only to find them caked in a thick layer of grime 🤢. After going at it with regular multipurpose cleaner (with little success) we broke out the scour paste as a last-ditch effort and OH BOY did this miracle product deliver (pics above). If it can handle that grossness, it's going to have no problem with day-to-day messes like soap scum and burnt-on food. Plus, it smells delightful and comes in minimal, low-waste packaging!"
Get it from Humble Suds on Etsy for $15.15+ (originally $15.95+; available in two sizes).
26. A touchless vacuum you can sweep debris right into. No more song and dance with your dustpan trying to sweep up every last speck of dust.
Promising review: "I love this thing!!!! I have three long-haired dogs, and it just sucks up all that hair. I almost did not get it because of a review saying that it got clogged up quick. That is not the case. It compacts the hair and doesn't lose suction. I empty it once a week, and I sweep almost every day!" —Christy Sanders
Get it from Amazon for $149+ (available in 10 colors).
27. A professional-strength grout cleaner guaranteed to remove years — yes, years — of grime from your home's floors. Turns out, you had white grout all along. Who knew? 🤷♀️
Promising review: "Bought my home knowing this step would not only satisfy me, but frustrate me. Enter Grout-EEZ — y’all just don’t even think and buy now. The photos speak for themselves and if I’m being honest, I didn’t even wait five minutes like the bottle says, just let it sit a bit and scrubbed away. Can wait to do it a second time all out before sealing. ✔️" —Marya Odell
Get it from Amazon for $21.95+ (available in two sizes and with or without a brush).
28. A giant lint roller on a stick that's just a heck of a lot more fun to use than a broom/Swiffer/vacuum. Plus, it works just as well on tumbleweeds of airborne dog fur, dust, and whatever else gets tracked into your home.
Promising review: "I am truly amazed at this device! All the nasty dust that was on my popcorn ceiling (I own a mid-century home and haven’t gotten rid of the popcorn ceiling just yet) was getting out of control and everything I tried didn’t work — paper towels just snagged on the ceiling and a vacuum was way to heavy and awkward. This got my ceiling sparkling clean in about 5 minutes! I used it on my walls as well! I love it and highly recommend it if you have popcorn ceilings as well!" —Maria Celentano
Get it from Amazon for $23.85.
29. A drill brush kit you can attach to your drill/driver for the most REWARDING cleaning sesh ever — no elbow grease necessary.
Useful Products is a US-based small business established in 2007 by car wash owner, electrician, and former bodybuilder Anthony LaPolla that specializes in drill-cleaning brushes and attachments.
Each of the different brush colors indicates which tasks the brushes are meant for based on their bristle type, so be sure to check which one is best suited for whatever you need to for! Yellow is the “all-purpose” medium bristle, but some are softer and harder depending on what types of surfaces you’re cleaning (but none of them will scratch!).
Promising review: "I manage many apartment properties and finding people to do the cleaning has been tricky business, so I end up having to get in and clean these horrendous filth pods tenants lived in and left me to deal with when they move out. The ovens and stove tops are usually the worst, and I absolutely hate cleaning. I came across this drill attachment set, and let me tell you, it helped me tremendously! I still had to get in with a putty knife on some of them but it really cut down my elbow-grease time." —alicia haats
Get it from Useful Products on Amazon for $18.95 (available in six colors and stiffness levels).
30. A pet-specific stain remover sure to hide the fact that Sparky isn't the perfect angel you make him out to be on Instagram. Turns out, he gets the nervous pees every time someone comes over and this holiday season has really tested him.
Promising review: "This stuff is so great!! I’ve tried so many brands of enzymatic cleaners and they all have a strong chemical smell. This smells exactly like the orange cream shakes at Arby’s!! It does an excellent job or erasing odors and seems to be working to deter puppy from peeing in that spot again. Leaves a great long-lasting scent and odors are long gone by the time the pleasant scent fades the next day. It’s also a great stain remover. I’ve only used it on puppy messes but it makes quick work of them. Love this stuff so much!!" —Geek Girl
Get a 32-ounce bottle from Amazon for $19.97.
31. A tub of heavy-duty cleaning wipes because despite the fact that you have 17 different cleaners under your kitchen sink, it is SO much easier to reach for a one-and-done wipe.
These work on almost any surface: leather, fabric, furniture, hardwood, pans, metal, WHEREVER. And! They'll clean up grease, oil, tar, dirt, ink, lipstick, nail polish, food, and a whole lot more.
Promising review: "These are awesome! The size of the container is large and so was the quantity I received. The wipes are huge and tough, great for scrubbing! I cleaned my whole house with these and they removed stains I haven't been able to get out for a while. I also tried them on my walls and they did not remove the paint. Also, they smell fantastic: no chemical smell whatsoever. These are a great deal on Amazon, and I will be purchasing them again!" —Suze
Get a pack of 90 from Amazon for $14.19+ (available in nine sizes/packs).
32. A pack of pre-moistened screen-cleaning cloths so you can give your TV a little TLC before you sit down and watch some TLC.
Promising review: "I was skeptical at first because I've tried just about everything to clean my monitors and TV screens and EVERYTHING left streaks. Well, the buck stops here. These wipes are AMAZING! As advertised, they are completely streak free. I don't know how they came up with right formula, but they got it! A+++++++++++++++++++++" —Howard C.
Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $11.25.
33. A pair of handy-dandy gloves sure to make doing your dishes just a lil' bit less terrible. The palms and fingers are studded with thick silicone bristles so you can get at grease, baked-on food, and other hard-to-rinse stuff that a regular sponge just can't handle.
Promising review: "These gloves have held up SO WELL. They're perfect for dishes and when I’m cleaning/rinsing before putting in the dishwasher. Definitely better than a lot of sponges I’ve tried and they have been very durable! Recommend!!" —Tabitha Collier
Get them from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in three colors and individually or in a set of three).
34. A concentrated leather cleaner you can use on ~literally~ anything made from leather. That means your couch, car seats, purses, shoes, jackets, etc., etc.
Promising review: "I don't usually do reviews but this product DEFINITELY deserves one! This is by far the best purchase I have ever made on Amazon. It was easy to mix, easy to use, and years of dirt wiped away almost immediately. I did purchase a small leather brush and a spray bottle, as well. I mixed 2 cups of water with 4 tablespoons of the product in the spray bottle and applied it generously to my couches. I used the brush in a circular motion to bring up all the grime, and then wiped it down with a towel. It worked immediately with little scrubbing. I was able to do two couches, a large chair, and an ottoman in under an hour. The results were phenomenal! I also did 'the dog's couch,' which I thought it was beyond help, but thanks to this product it looks brand new!!" —Michelle Skenandore
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in three sizes).
35. A pack of Scotch-Brite stainless steel scrubbers that'll get you a whole lot further than a normal ol' sponge when it comes to scraping off all that black stuff on the bottom of your (uncoated, plz!) pots and pans.
Promising reviews: "I’m so mad that I never knew these existed until this week. I’ve been struggling to clean my All Clad cookware and tried all sorts of methods but still no shine! These arrived yesterday and I immediately went in. So I got all pans and used these along with Bar Keeper’s...OMG unbelievable. Not a single stain left. Just the beautiful shiny All Clad as I remember! Buy these now. I know I’ll be reordering." —Joy
Get it from Amazon for $2.62+ (available in packs of 3 or 24).
36. A Baseboard Buddy with a 4-foot extendable pole that makes cleaning your baseboards, moldings, ceiling fans, and grates nice and easy on your knees, shoulders, and back. If you're someone who forgets to clean those things until big ol' cobwebs are visible, it's probably a good thing to have on hand.
The kit comes with one Baseboard Buddy and three reusable pads which can be used wet or dry.
Promising review: "Buy it NOW. Honestly, I had huge reservations for this thing. Yet another miracle cleaning tool that will break or bend or something. I was so wrong. It was easy to put together and I sprayed it with Mean Green and went to the baseboards. No more kneeling and no broken back. This thing is amazing. It is durable and the pad is super absorbent. I am so happy. I can't wait to do the rest of the house!" —artgirl
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
37. A lil' gap-cleaning brush you can use to dig out the crud (dust, pollen, food crumbs) that accumulates around your windowsills and door tracks.
Promising review: "This is an amazing set of brushes. Don't be fooled by the low cost. The brushes are soft and long enough to get into tight spots but firm enough to hold up. They work amazing in those hard-to-clean aluminum window runners and sliding doors. I've used them to clean in enclosed fan blades, refrigerator vents, etc. They wash easily and with a bit of TLC they hold their shape. Always nice to find something so simple and inexpensive that works so well." —CNJ
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $5.97.
38. And an all-natural glass cleaner powerful enough to tackle any stickiness leftover from your Thanksgiving window clings.
Butter Me Up Organics is a zero-waste small biz based in Livermore, California. Their organic, handcrafted bath, body, and cleaning products use ingredients from ethical and sustainable sources.
