2. A basic pool maintenance kit, so you can remove floating leaves, dirt, and little critters from your above-ground pool before you swim. You'll get a vacuum head with a reusable debris bag and a surface skimmer pole for easy, effortless cleaning.
Promising review: "Wasn't sure what to expect for this basically low-cost maintenance kit, but surprisingly worked great at getting all the cottonwood seeds off the bottom of our pool as well as small pebbles. Would highly recommend if you don't want to spend big bucks on a pool vacuum system." —Kay Arterburn

4. A rust stain remover for gross yellow spots ruining your sink, drain, and shower walls. This formula can help by penetrating the toughest stains and getting your tub squeaky clean.
Promising review: "Iron Out was literally spray, spray, and spray, wipe to spread the product evenly, and walk away. It started working almost immediately. I went and made a pot of coffee, played with the dog for a few minutes, and by the time I came back my shower was white! Holy wizardry! Seriously it was more work to clean the mirror over the vanity than use this product."—Jessica B.

5. A disposer foaming cleanser, because when was the last time you ~actually~ cleaned out eggshells and other scraps from your kitchen disposer? Your stinky drain will thank you for this foamy (and super clean) treatment, which will give your sink a super fresh scent during the warmer months.
Promising review: "This product works! I followed the directions, which are super easy, and was very satisfied to see the gross slime and muck that was removed. You put the entire packet down your disposal, and the magic happens quickly! Very powerful and successful cleaning! The scent was not what I would call overpowering, but the inside of the disposal is super clean, confirmed. These will definitely be a cleaning staple for me. The garbage disposal runs much easier and more quietly now. When things fall into the disposal, my hands are not covered in gross slimy stuff anymore." —JSullivanJ

6. A carpet cleaning solution you'll want to have on hand for messes made by your fur babies. Muddy footprints and pee stains don't deserve a place in your living room, especially when it's so dang hot outside and the last thing you want to do is tidy up.
Promising review: "Holy smokes, this is a miracle cleaner! My crazy dogs hate the rain and they have one spot that they always go on when they decide they are not going outside. I have cleaned the spot probably 100 times. I cleaned this area one time with this cleaner and my spot steam cleaner and it is completely gone! The stain and smell are 100 percent gone, not just covered up like before, completely and absolutely gone." —PLLane
Get it from Amazon for $19.97+ (also available in a larger bottle).
7. And a robot vacuum cleaner to suck up pet hair, food crumbs, and dirt around your home: If your cat or dog is shedding a lot during the summer, this small gadget will help minimize fur clumps indoors.
Promising review: "Literally one of the best items I’ve bought off of Amazon. I have an English bulldog and now that summer is approaching, he’s shedding his winter coat. I let this baby go one round through my kitchen and all the hair is gone! It was able to pick up all the hair in one round while it would’ve taken me two rounds of sweeping! Don’t waste your time on other models and buy this one!" —hayden
Get it from Amazon for $139.99 (available in two colors).

Promising review: "I'm not a lazy person normally, but when it comes to cleaning my bathroom, I can find just about any reason you could think off to do it another time. It got so bad that I went on Amazon looking specifically for a power scrubber. I received this kit and immediately got the cordless drill out. Think power waxing but in the bathroom!" —DJ
Get it from Amazon for $14.95+ (available in six colors).
9. A grill cleaner that'll get to work on burger drippings and more food remains after a BBQ. Spray, wait a minute or two, and wipe away burned-on stains. No more scrubbing for hours before you throw kebabs or patties on the grill again.
Promising review: "I tried six different products before trying this one and by far, this is the best one of all. I am the type of person who prefers cleaning the grill immediately after grilling. It loosens the debris off the grates easily and comes off easily. I like easy practical cleaning without the need to spend much time scrubbing. Try it, you will not regret it." —Fmcasado
