1. Water bottle-cleaning tablets to make sure everyone's go-to container actually gets cleaned. How many drink containers have bit the dust because they LOOKED dirty but were just stained? I'll let you do the math.
2. And if you really wanna get in there: bottle brushes — they'll be a blessing for the laziest of dishwashers.
3. Foaming garbage disposer tablets to bring up all the gunk so you don't have to. It's gonna get GROSS but you can get through it to the much cleaner side.
4. A holy grail soft cleanser to help you *easily* erase all those gray and rusty stains on household surfaces you came to term with years ago. They aren't paying rent, so give 'em the boot!
5. Phonesoap, a gadget you've seen on Shark Tank that'll charge your phone *and* sanitize it at the same time. It also works for any item you can fit inside, like reading glasses!
6. Or a ultrasonic jewelry cleaner to scrub away dirt and debris from a cloudy wedding band or smudged glasses with *just* the power of water while you're doing more important things like standing at your kitchen sink eating a bag of chips.
7. And a cleaning pen that'll *gently* revive the look of your jewels that you DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE have grown cloudy over time. Don't worry, it's made with micro-fine cleansers, polishing agents, and a polymer for a pro-level shine at the price of your morning coffee order.
8. A jetted tub cleaner that'll make you gag with delight once you run it through your system and all the pipe filth emerges like some Ghostbusters sludge. Oh, and it's septic-safe.
9. And washing machine-cleaning tablets so you won't have to rewash a load because of cleaning product buildup. We've all been there and it's quite the mini tragedy.
10. A rust-removing spray to work like a magic trick in neglected showers, minus the elbow grease. Spray it on a rusted surround, leave the room, and come back to diminished stains you can easily wipe away.
11. A Scrub Daddy sponge you've def also seen on Shark Tank and then fall in love with because it can go from gentle cleansing in warm water to serious scrubbing power in cool water.
12. And Dawn so you can *gently* de-grime all your hand-wash dishes in baby ducks' fave bubble bath. Yep, even if you misplaced your dishwashing gloves.
13. An affordable hand vac that'll make cleaning up discarded fluff from your furniture NBD. Seriously, walking around like an animal fur hedgehog out of laziness is no way to live.
14. And a rubber squeegee broom (with a telescoping pole) to get DEEP down into the pile of your carpet to unearth pet fur. TBH, this sounds like work but once you get a couple of passes in and it starts to unearth all the fluff you're going to go IN on it for some super satisfying results like this.
15. AND a scratchy lil' tool that'll FINALLY get all the pet hair off your fabric surfaces both inside your house and car. You'll wonder how you lived without up until now.
16. A drill brush cleaning kit you can attach to your drill/driver for an informercial-like cleaning sesh that'll have you seeking out all the dirty surfaces you've been ignoring. This'll handle all the elbow grease.
17. A one-handed paper towel holder — it could make cleaning up spills way less daunting. It's kinda like a magic trick?!
18. A robotic vacuum that'll hook up to Alexa for voice control. You may turn into a controlling but incredibly clean monster. But there are worse things!
19. Tilex Mold and Mildew Remover that'll work its magic on gross grout stains while you kick back and catch up on your stories.
20. A bidet toilet attachment to help you cut down on your toilet paper budget after awhile while getting you squeaky clean. You'll discover why they're alllll about these in certain parts of Europe ;)
21. A silicone sink strainer that can make ridding it of tiny food particles easy as pie so you aren't awkwardly standing over your trash can raking them out of your OG metal strainer like a masked killer in a movie. I bought one of these and it truly is game-changing.
22. Or a TubShroom that people (including this writer) are obsessed with and will steal your heart after snaking your drain becomes a thing of the past! If you or anyone in your household has hair, you need this. TRUST.
23. Stain-lifting pads made to tackle icky pet stains. You love 'em but you don't have to live with their stains.
24. A legit stain remover to help remove those mud stains from your kid's shirt without harmful scrubbing.
25. Or an all-natural stain remover you'll feel OK about using in case you're trying to cut harsh chemicals out of your cleaning routine but still don't want to use elbow grease.
26. A steaming microwave cleaner for harnessing the power of anger to loosen up crud and dirt inside your microwave for wipeable messes.
27. Stove counter gap covers to keep pesky crumbs within sight instead of down between your cabinets and appliances where they'll attract bugs and rodents. Woof.
28. Cleaning goo you can use to detail stuff like vents, keyboards, remotes, the tiny works!
29. A bottle of air sanitizer (yes that's a thing) that apparently funeral directors love...and you will too, for lots of more NORMAL uses! If your house is clean but it doesn't smell clean, it won't feel clean.
30. Clorox Wipes — it'll be so easy to use that you may even get excited about squeezing in some cleaning seshes during commercial breaks. If you need to make it looked like you cleaned before someone visits, a quick swipe of this on your bathroom and kitchen sinks will do the trick.
31. A water mark removing cloth that could also do wonders on the nail polish remover you dribbled down your nightstand two years ago that's been a running "project for next weekend" for the past two years.
32. A commercial-grade cleaner for getting at soap scum and grime on notoriously hard-to-clean shower doors. It's time to stop ignoring those scummy surfaces you encounter on the reg.
33. A container of silver-polishing wipes that may just convince you to take out those heirloom pieces you're ignoring out of fear of suffering a scrubbing-induced elbow injury.
34. Non-stick oven liners to clean up spills without *actually* having to clean your oven. Who can remember to clean up melted cheese once that pizza comes out of the oven and it's time to eat. NO ONE, that's who.
35. And stove burner covers that'll do the same for you up top. And you can even run them through the dishwasher!
36. Toilet cleaner with goose necks for minimal-effort reaching and serious bowl-whitening power because your loved ones DO notice when your toilet is filthy.
37. A car trash can you can use to help tidy up your car as you go instead of having to haul out the trash in armfuls every few months.
38. Goo Gone – it can make all sorts of sticky messes you've resigned to living with disappear — including that old magnet that fused with your rental apartment's fridge (me) or stickers fused with garage door windows (my friend who just bought a house).
39. A over-the-door laundry hamper to get those discarded PJs and undies off the bathroom floor. Raise your hand if you've ever tripped on your or a loved one's dirty underwear ::raises both hands::
40. And a foldable double hamper with removable liners that'll help you sort lights from darks from the get-go.
41. A self-cleaning litter box that also happens to look like a toilet but TBH you can live with that because it'll take so little upkeep on your part.
42. Odor-blocking trash bags to buy another day here or there before you take out the trash. As one lazy person to another, I get it.
43. And an odor-minimizing diaper pail so diaper wafts won't assault your nostrils during changing time — or any other time. Just read the reviews....
44. Finally, some good ole' Magic Erasers that'll handle most of the elbow grease when you *do* have to scrub at a variety of stains.
