1. A jug of CLR — calcium, lime, and rust remover — to remove all the crusties from your faucet cause you're not a snob about tap water, but, if you're being honest, it has been tasting a little off lately.
Promising review: "The photo says it all. I have tried so many things to get the hard water build-up off of this faucet and nothing works. It's hard as a rock! I left it soaking for about an hour in a nondiluted mix and was able to scrub it all off easily. So happy and going to use this for other hard water issues in our house." —Meghan
Get it from Amazon for $5.28.
2. A $40 high-tech smart toothbrush with an accompanying app that helps you identify areas that could use a lil' extra love. It also gamifies your brushing by awarding points (for consistency!) which can be redeemed for discounts on replacement brushes and batteries. 🎟
Promising review: "I love this toothbrush. My dentist's office has been closed during the pandemic but this leaves my teeth squeaky clean! I used to use a Sonicare, so when i saw the price, I wasn't sure that this would work but I am so impressed. It’s way more affordable than other brands but works just as well." —lR
Get the starter kit from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in two colors).
3. And — to go with the above — a compact, cordless water flosser that's muchhhhh easier (and more fun, tbh) to use than regular old floss. It blasts away plaque and dislodges food and bacteria so well that your dentist will have no notes at your next visit — just praise.
I am fully at the age where stuff like this gets me excited and I'm not even embarrassed!!! My teeth feel SO DANG CLEAN after a go with this and my electric toothbrush — so much so that making it a part of my regular routine was très easy. I love that it's fully water resistant so I can use it in the shower (there *can* be a learning curve when you first use it so it's best to do it in the shower where you're soaked anyways), that a single charge keeps it powered for up to 80 days, and that it has three different settings (pulse, standard, and turbo) so you can get the exact clean you're looking for. All in all, it's a major win for anyone looking to level up their dental hygeine.
Promising review: "I've never owned a water flosser so this is an oral hygiene game changer. Wish I would have done it sooner." —Andy W.
Get it from Burst Oral Care for $69.99 (originally $89.98; available in four colors).
4. A giant lint roller on a stick if no matter how often you sweep/Swiffer/vacuum your house is covered in tumbleweeds of airborne dog fur, dust, and whatever else your AC unit blows in.
Promising review: "These work great for pet hair on beds, furniture, pet beds, dog kennels, area rugs, cars, pretty much anything you can think of! My black lab sleeps in my bed that has a white quilt comforter and this makes it super easy to just roll across every morning when making the bed. The sheets are easy to tear off and don’t unravel when rolling." —Ashley D.
Get it from Amazon for $23.95.
5. A washable sponge with a seriously shocking lifespan. According to reviewers, when washed and rotated in and out of use, they can last upwards of a year!
The eco-friendly invention comes from Sarah Dooley of Marley's Monsters. If you're looking for other sustainable supplies, you should also check out her reusable gift wrap, coffee filters, facial rounds, and nursing pads.
Promising review: "I love these reusable sponges! They scrub food off easily and are very sturdy. I am so happy with the quality and the fact that I can wash and reuse them! Perfect replacement for disposable sponges and so cute!" —Kristen Velasquez
Get it from Marley's Monsters on Etsy for $12+ (available in packs of one or three and three colors).
6. And a biodegradable vegan dish block that can cut through grease and grime all over your home. Use the sudsy, dye- and fragrance-free formula to wash your dishes, spot clean your carpets and laundry, remove adhesive residue, and more. A single bar can last more than a month!
No Tox Life is a mother-daughter Etsy shop from Sandee Ferman and Callie Milford. Their Etsy shop currently only sells the vegan dish block, but on their website, you'll also find other vegan bath and home products.
Promising review: "Transitioning to more sustainable products isn't an easy process, but this Dish Block is so incredible. It's even better than traditional plastic bottled dish soap — very sudsy — a little goes a long way! I use this dish block with with a bamboo bristled brush and bought a bamboo block to put it on." —Daniela Velez
Get it from No Tox Life on Etsy for $9.98.
7. A washer-friendly sock organization system because at this point, you're basically running a home for orphaned socks.
The foot-shaped hangers come in a two-pack so you can use one for clean socks and one for dirty. Each holds nine pairs in total and can easily be hung on a doorknob or in your closet or wardrobe.
Promising review: "If you're tired of sorting and pairing socks, then you need this product. I ordered a set for me (one for clean socks and one for dirty socks). The socks stayed secured in and out of the wash cycle and dried well. Great idea for each family member, travelers, and kids going off to college. Can be used for more than just socks. Think scarves, gloves, etc." —valueval
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $18 (available in five colors).
8. A pack of Scrubbing Bubbles gel stamps that gradually dissolve with each flush to keep lime scale and toilet rings to a minimum because the less you have to manually scrub your porcelain throne — the better.
Promising review: "What can I say? This smells great and helps deodorize the water closet. It helps sanitize and keeps the bowl clean after every flush...and I can't be the only one who's satisfied when I click, press, and release the little jewel-looking gel tab onto the inside of a sparkling-clean bowl!" —Gino
Get a pack of 12 gel stamps and a dispenser from Amazon for $16.47.
9. An OXO Good Grips dish squeegee guaranteed to make dirty dishes a breeze. The flexible silicone tool scrapes away messes and saves you from using excess water, too. Mother Nature thanks you.
Promising review: "If you have ever had to repair or replace a garbage disposal, then I am sure you have been lectured on basically only allowing crumbs to fall into the disposal. This dish squeegee makes prepping dishes for a dishwasher or sink washing a breeze. I hold the dish over the trash can and after a few swipes, the dish is ready for washing. In comparison to using a paper towel, it saves you money, helps protect the environment, and keeps your fingers free from gunk." —She Who Reads
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
10. A magnetic meal planner you can stick right to your fridge so you can easily keep track of the week's menu and any groceries you may need to pick up. Once you've written your list, rip out the perforated page and take it with you.
Jenna Kate is a Utah-based Etsy shop that sells all sorts of organizational accessories (many magnetic) from calendars and chore charts to daily planners and pen holders.
Promising review: "The perforated list separator is very nicely done, super easy to tear. Quality of paper, cardboard backing, and magnets is great. Love the free shipping, plus this item shipped SO quickly! Very happy with this purchase." —Stacy S.
Get it from Jenna Kate on Etsy for $13.99.
11. A tub of The Pink Stuff which can clean anything you throw at it — tires, pots and pans, stove tops, walls, showers, you name it!
This TikTok-famous paste can clean literally ANY mess whether it's in your bathroom, kitchen, basement or anywhere in between.
Promising review: "Amazing product. 99% all natural... no chemicals, no toxic odor. Shower wall hard water stains completely wiped out. I used other products on my 10-year-old oven door and it never came as clean. First try, I wiped on, wiped off. (Recommended at least five minutes.) Second try, I applied Pink and left it over night. Baked on grit was softened enough I could use a spoon to scrap. End result... BIG DIFFERENCE. By far the best versatile, nontoxic, gentle abrasive product. I would love a case so I could go crazy." —ap808
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
12. A lavender-scented carpet refresher with the power to neutralize foul odors all around your home. Sprinkle it liberally on rugs, upholstery, mattresses, or dissolve it in warm water and use it to wipe down counters. Either way, you'll enjoy a big ol' whiff of fresh fragrance afterwards.
Ash and Indigo Boutique is an Oregon-based Etsy shop that sells an array of soy crystal candles, handmade soaps, smudge kits, and more.
Ingredients: lavender buds, lavender essential oil, and sodium bicarbonate.
Promising review: "I have dogs and one of them has really bad breath. She licks the carpet and I’ve been having a difficult time trying to keep our carpets clean. This amazing powder does the job. It came quickly and smells amazing! I’ll be ordering more once I run out. Thank you for such a wonderful product!" —Donna Nemerovski
Get a 6-ounce bag from Ash and Indigo Boutique on Etsy for $6.50.
13. A pouch of foaming garbage disposal cleaner to eliminate the special stank that can only be produced after years of shredding up meat, produce, 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 a pack of two from Amazon for $9.50.
14. A bottle of all-purpose cleaning concentrate you can use on messes in every corner of your home. Just spray it onto surfaces — like your kitchen counter or bathroom vanity — then let it sit for ~30ish seconds before wiping it away.
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. Each bottle of their pet-safe, nontoxic concentrate can fill a 32-ounce bottle once mixed with water.
Promising review: "I just received my order. I’m so thrilled to find alternatives to chemical cleaners. And these smell FANTABULOUS!!! Even drinkable, though I won’t of course. I’ve already been going around the kitchen and bathroom spraying things to wipe down. Mmmm! Thank you for these super safe and super refreshing cleaners. Oh, and THANK YOU for the freebie 🎁 ~ the laundry soap sample!!! Totally unexpected delightful surprise!!! I’m looking forward to trying it." —Sandy Grugan
Get it from Humble Suds on Etsy for $12.95 (available in three scents).
15. A two-stage knife sharpener with the power to take your dullest kitchen knife and return it to its former glory. Forget buying a whole new set, this teensy-tiny tool can sharpen and polish straight- and serrated-edge knifes with no issue.
Read our full review of the KitchenIQ two-stage knife sharpener!
Promising review: "Wow, this little gadget is pretty amazing! I have some old (expensive) nonserrated knives that are supposed to never need sharpening but unfortunately, lost their sharp edge long ago. I saw this gadget and decided to try it. I set the bottom of this gadget on the edge of the counter and ran one of the knives through the side labeled 'Coarse' about 10 times, then ran it through the side labeled 'Fine' another 8–10 times. Bingo! The knife was transformed back to its former high-dollar cutlery glory. I could hardly believe how effectively it had sharpened the knife, which I had been ready to throw away a week before. I've been happily sharpening all our knives and trying to add up in my head how much money I've saved by NOT having to buy another set of expensive knives. I don't know where else you can spend $6 and get this return for the money. Great score!" —Schelly L. Wagoner
Get it from Amazon for $7 (available in four colors).
16. A pack of pH-neutral stainless steel wipes which eliminate fingerprints (or doggie nose prints), grease, and streaks from your appliances. Just 🎶 wipe, wipe, wipe it down, wipe 🎶
Promising review: "I bought these last month to see if I would like them, they are my 32,393,657,697,047,241st product I have purchased for stainless steel in my kitchen. Hahahahaa not really, but I know I have bought over 100 products and none ever do what they say they will. ENTER WEIMAN STAINLESS STEEL CLEANER WIPES! This product is EVERYTHING and more. I have no streaks, no hand prints, just gorgeous shiny and clean stainless steel. You have made my life so much easier with these wipes. I am so thankful I found this product. Just wipe on and shine off with cotton cloth. Easy peasy and lasts for the whole week in my heavily used kitchen because I cook every single day. So thankful. You will love these I promise you. This is not a gimmick product, it's the REAL DEAL! Buy them and you will be as happy as me and your kitchen will look stunning." —jaguar
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $14.91.
17. A Dawn Powerwash kit that will help cut through grease and caked on messes. If your partner/roommate/dishwashing pal has a tendency to let things "soak" overnight, gift them a bottle of the good stuff.
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
Get it from Amazon for $17.50.
18. 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: "This thing just plain works. We got a mature golden retriever last year and were told he didn't shed. Then in the spring he started shedding badly. We were tired of hair everywhere and somehow I realized that dragging my shoe across the carpet balled the hair up. I found this product on a whim one day and knew it had to be better than my shoe! I ordered it and it was tough at first. The bristles pulled the hair up but then caught the tufts and spread them around. I found that using short quick strokes with the rake turned upside down got the best results. The backside is more like a squeegee and helps pull the hair up in long rolls and keeps the hair in one big pile." —Nick V.
Get it from Amazon for $12.98+ (available in six configurations).
19. A vacuum attachment you can use to suck lint out of your dryer because 1. Things are taking wayyyyy too long to dry and 2. This Is Us has given you a *major* fear of house fires. (I know that was from a different appliance but it stands.)
Promising review: "My upright dryer is 5 years old and I could see some lint on the walls where my lint tray goes so I thought it would be a good idea to clean it. Boy was I surprised to see how much stuff came out! I am so glad I bought this! Easy to use and gave me peace of mind preventing a fire. 🔥" —charli
Get it from Amazon for $10.99+ (also available in pink).
20. A tub of Scrub Daddy's PowerPaste — a naturally abrasive clay-based cleaning compound 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
21. A genius chicken shredder that's basically like a grinder but for meat. This way, you can get the job done in 15 seconds and not have to subject yourself to the sound of a fork scraping against a plate.
Promising review: "This thing makes MIRACLES!!!! Now I'll do shredded chicken more often, for real, you won't regret buying this!" —Jully Zhong
Get it from Amazon for $6.
22. A set of cart trolley dividing bags so you can organize your groceries as you go and not have to bob between putting things in the fridge/freezer/pantry once you get home — just put everything away bag by bag!
Each bag holds up to 50 pounds and has an extra pocket.
Promising review: "This is exactly what I've been looking for. It fits all the shopping carts and you can detach them and take only one to tow all of the bags if you are shopping for smaller quantities. I've been using these for a few days now and I love it. I used to have a bunch of different bags in my trunk and it was very messy. With Lotus Bags, I can finally get rid of all the other bags and have these sitting nice and pretty in the trunk. The cooler bag is especially awesome to keep the items cool while shopping to transporting them home. The bags look very well made and sturdy." —JJ
Get them from Amazon for $39.99 (available in two colors).
23. An adjustable, three-blade blind duster capable of cleaning the grimiest blinds — we're talking top and bottom — in one fell swoop. No more poof of dust coming at you every time you crack them open.
Promising review: "OK I'll be honest, I ordered this because of the price. After reviewing several other options and having been disappointed with previous dusters I've had, I figured why spend more money on something that isn't going to work? So I ordered the least expensive option but WOW does this little tool rock!!!! It's very easy to use and clean. It does a fantastic job of cleaning and dusting the blinds and gets ALL of the crud off of them. My blinds haven't been this clean since the day they were first installed. VERY happy with purchase." —Amazon Shopper
Get it from Amazon for $7.99 (available in two colors).
24. A magnetic algae scraper you can use between deep cleans of your aquarium when you want to clear out stubborn stains and fish goo.
Promising review: "Nice and small for our minnow tank. We have some stubborn algae spots that just grasp on the plastic and don’t budge unless I take a nylon pot scraper to it...but that requires emptying the whole tank and 'I ain’t got time fo dat' so little circular motions and this busted right through without getting my hand wet. It’s just scratchy hook-and-loop and it does the job. No scratching of the plastic. And no residue on the outside. I just park it in the corner behind a plant and give it a wipe every few days." —BreezyBreeMurphy33
Get it from Amazon for $12.76 (available in white and black).
25. 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: "For many, this may seem like a waste of money. Not for me. I am over 65 and have difficulty getting up and down from the floor. As a result, my baseboards did not get dusted as frequently as the rest of the house. This made it so much easier for me." —retired
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
26. A sandwich bag holder so you can move leftover spaghetti from your stove to a Ziploc without creating a Jackson Pollock masterpiece on your countertop.
Promising review: "As a single person, I find that one of my biggest challenges is cooking. I prefer to make larger quantities — usually in my Instant Pot — and then separate them into servings and freeze them. Trying to freeze a lot of containers took too much space, so I decided to try freezer bags. Since it was a mess to put servings into bags, I ordered these bag clips to help, and they do. I mostly use sandwich-size baggies, which fit well, and the stands hold the bag open so I can add the food. Then it is easy to freeze the bags flat for future use." —cymart
Get them from Amazon for $7.98+ (available in packs of 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12).
27. A bottle of acid-free, pH-balanced wheel cleaner that dissolves rust, dirt, and nasty street grime on contact. It works so well, people will assume you just drove your (::whispers:: 1998) Camry off the lot!
PS: It's safe on all factory installed wheels including those finished with chrome, aluminum, steel, PVD, paint, magnesium, and more.
Promising review: "It will take one look from your friends to say 'Did you buy some new wheels?' This stuff is absolutely amazing. For the full effect, dismount your wheel, spray the back. Go do something for 10 minutes. Wash with water, no scrubbing needed. Turn the rim face up, do it again. Do the rest of your rims, and don't forget the tire protectant when you reinstall them. This stuff will handle salt, road tar, off-road dirt and mud — you get it dirty, it comes clean. Where was this stuff when I was racing off-road?" —johnfcon
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in two sizes).
28. 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 $17.89.
29. A pack of itty-bitty crevice-cleaning brushes that can get into nasty nooks like the spaces under your toilet seat, in your window grooves, and between your air conditioner grates. When you're done, just toss it — no need to clean it!
Promising review: "I purchased this product for cleaning the screws and tight places on the toilet. I have found multiple uses for them i.e. cleaning between the rim of skillet or pot and where the handle is attached. Great for cleaning car vents, behind faucets, and under faucet handles. The list goes on and on. Will purchase again. I am using these as stocking stuffers for the adults in my family." —Kat
Get a pack of 28 from Amazon for $12.99.
30. A hamper with three separate compartments so your partner has no excuse for mixing darks and whites. It even has a solid top where you can fold clean laundry and iron if the mood ever strikes (couldn't be me).
You can also fold your clothes on the top rack!
Promising review: "I love this. It makes doing the laundry so much easier because I can divide everything and it has the table so I can fold on top of it. I have another one from another store and when you put too many clothes in it, the bags fall out. This one is super sturdy." —Alyson
Get it from Wayfair for $74.99 (originally $102.99).
31. A wad preventer to ensure your sheets don't tangle themselves up into a Boy Scout badgeworthy knot *and* not even get clean in the process.
Wad-Free is a small biz from Cyndi Bray. Their products are made in the USA. Just pop the corners of your flat or fitted sheet into the device and you'll never have to deal with tangling and twisting again! Believe it or not (I mean believe it...the reviews are there) the manufacturer even says that your sheets will dry 75% faster and with fewer wrinkles.
Promising review: "I was skeptical when I first heard about these, but I saw good reviews and gave them a try. I immediately regretted not getting more so I could do a full load of just sheets but even having only two was a huge help. These things WORK. I'm buying four more right now." —Juliet S.
32. A pack of Bissell Stomp 'N Go pads capable of lifting whatever nasty stain your pet left you on your new Persian rug. Whether you're picking up slobber, mud, or an "accident" (let's be real — it was just raining and they didn't want to go outside) your fingers don't have to get anywhere near the mess — just throw on a house show, toss the pad on top of the stain, and give it a good ol' stomp.
Promising review: "It is actually working! I almost cried when I picked up the first pad!! Some genius builder put white carpet in our condo bedrooms. It's now 15 years old so it's definitely not the original white. We knew we were going to get a dog so we didn’t want to replace it right away though. Well, we rescued a dog that was barely potty trained and she did a number on the carpet. Luckily, the smell didn’t linger, but the stain did. We’ve tried numerous products and none of them helped the stain. The stains are now over a year old. We're waiting until after COVID to replace the carpet but I still wanted it to look nice in the meantime. I was skeptical for sure, but holy goodness it’s working!! You can literally see the rectangle where I used (and moved) the first pad!!!! I have a long way to go, but these pads are nothing short of a miracle! I just wish they were bigger because laying them out looks and feels like we’re laying tiles on the floor. Just buy it. You won’t regret it." —Kimmy
Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $24.99.
33. Or — if you own a carpet cleaning machine — a miracle-working, deodorizing shampoo so freaking good, it'll have your flooring looking like it was just installed yesterday.
This solution works great with Bissell, Hoover, McCulloch, Rug Doctor, Kenmore, and Carpet Express vacuum cleaners.
Sunny & Honey is a family-run small business making cleaning products safe enough to use around pets and powerful enough to get rid of pet stains.
Promising review: "Worth every penny. I’ve bought this product so many times now I have it on auto ship! Saw the reviews and figured I’d give it a try. My cat likes to pee over the litter box and stained the brand new carpet. I used this in my Bissell and it took all the stain and smell out!!! I’ll never use another cleaner." —Wendy
Get it from Sunny & Honey on Amazon for $19.97+ (available in two sizes).
34. A powerful rust remover that can remove stains from just about any surface — think showers, sinks, tubs, toilets, concrete floors, and even colorfast carpets — with zero scrubbing involved.
Promising review: "I used it on our tubs, toilets, sinks, and shower. It took one bottle of this stuff to achieve the same result as three bottles of other brands. I will buy this again hands down. I just sprayed, walked away for a few minutes, and wiped and rinsed." —Carrie D.
Get a bottle on Amazon for $4.98.
35. A Conair fabric defuzzer powerful enough to remove pills and matted fibers from your sofa (and even clothes) but gentle enough that no damage is left in its wake.
The battery-operated model requires two AA batteries that aren't included, but you can buy some right here!
Promising review: "OK, I don’t normally rave about things like this. I bought this on a whim in a last attempt to save my favorite duvet cover. The pills had gotten to the point where it was seriously uncomfortable to sleep with them getting all up in my leg space. I thought I was going to have to get a new duvet cover entirely. Along came this lil' baby. Not only is my duvet cover basically brand new, but I have found a new hobby. I’m depilling everything. Sweatshirts, leggings, blankets, socks, anything that looks like it needs some love. It does the job quickly and leaves everything looking fresh. Hi, I’m obsessed. I can’t stop. I should send this back. I’ve started asking if my neighbors need anything depilled. I’m going to buy one of these for everyone in my life. Everyone needs to own this. Take it away from me." —Sydney Jensen
Get it from Amazon for $13.41+ (available in six colors and rechargeable or battery operated).

36. A spinning makeup brush cleaner to eliminate caked-on foundation, bronzer, and blush with très minimal effort. Plus, it's a bit like a science experiment, and who doesn't like that?
What's included: one brush spinner brush, two spindles, one spinner bowl, one splash guard ring, eight flexible brush collars, and one collar stand.
I have one of these and my brushes have seriously never been cleaner. All you have to do is fill the bowl halfway with water and brush cleanser, attach your brush to whichever collar fits, dip it into the water, and turn the spinner on. I found there's a *bit* of a learning curve to using it (you have to hover your brush right at the top of the water and not fully submerge it), but once you get the hang of it, it's actually pretty fun. The best part, imo, is that you can spin your brushes almost completely dry! When I used to wash them by hand, I typically had to let them dry overnight before I could use them again but now they're ready to go in less than an hour.
PS: You can use whatever cleanser you like, but I've had really good luck with e.l.f.'s Brush Shampoo (and it doesn't hurt that it's super affordable).
Promising review: "I had a stack of makeup brushes I hadn’t cleaned in a while because it takes FOREVER to wash them by hand. So, I ordered this hoping it would live up to the hype. It does! I was able to clean most of my brushes with the handle attachments and got them all done in about 40 minutes, whereas it has taken me over an hour in the past. Of course, the 40 minutes includes a learning curve, so it should take even less time next time. Doesn’t require a lot of water (unless you like cleaning up messes, it will spill out if too much is added) or brush cleaner. Brushes came out perfectly clean and ready for use. Great price for the time and manual labor saved!" —L S Brown
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
37. Some Goo Gone kitchen degreaser sure to come in clutch when the day finally comes that you need to clean behind your oven. 😭
38. A 2-in-1 robotic Bissell vacuum and wet mop so you don't have to attend to tracked-in dirt, muddy footprints (or pawprints), and other debris. Instead, switch this baby on and hit the couch while it works.
The robotic vacuum/mop is powered by a lithium ion battery that can run for up to 130 minutes. It's suitable for use on wood, tile, linoleum, and other sealed hard floors.
Promising review: "I love this, it works so well! Super easy to use and figure out the different attachments. We have a dog who is constantly throwing grass and soil from her indoor potty all over the rug and we are also doing some home improvement projects so we have sawdust on the floor as well and this vacuum picks it all up super easily. I love that it’s so easy to change the wet and dry attachments and this thing has a surprisingly long battery life even on high power. I run this almost every day and I would say it’s well worth the price. My dog was a little scared of it at first but she has gotten used to it. Works great on our hardwood floors as well as on the rug." —Julia V.
Get it from Amazon for $299.99+ (available in two configurations).
39. And a pack of K-Cup cleaning pods that're basically like a full-body cleanse for your coffee maker. Just look at the nasty stuff it flushes out!
Promising review: "OK, so these cleaner pods are awesome! I didn't know how gross our Keurig was until today. The big mason jar on the left is when I actually ran the cleaner through plus one rinse cycle. The middle one is another rinse cycle and the last one, on the right, is the last one I did.
