1. A no-scrub Wet & Forget shower cleaner that you can spray on your shower grime, forget about overnight, and then rinse off in the morning. It tackles soap scum, oils, mold, and mildew stains with zero elbow grease required, just how I want (need) it.
The Wet & Forget shower cleaner is safe to use on most surfaces except for natural marble.
Promising review: "I have well water. Something in my well water reacts with copper plumbing and turns my shower tiles blue. Since my bathroom color scheme isn't on the blue spectrum, this is problematic. The well water also causes the shower glass to film up quickly. I've tried dozens and dozens of cleaners and scrubbed till my arms ached trying to get ahead of the blue and scumminess. My ambition in life is NOT to be a full time bathroom scrubber! I saw this stuff on a professional house cleaner's TikTok (sorry, don't remember which one) and thought 'what the heck, might as well give it a try.' Oh my goodness, the first day after my shower I sprayed this stuff all over and walked away. The next morning there was a NOTICEABLE reduction in the blue and the glass looked clearer too. Day two, sprayed again and walked away. The next morning the blue was gone except for a few spots on the floor tile and the glass looked amazing. Day three I sprayed the remaining spots and the next morning the shower practically looked new. NO SCRUBBING AT ALL!!!! This is my new favorite shower cleaner. The ONLY con I have is that it makes me sneeze while I'm spraying from inside the shower, but I can live with that." —L. J. Petillo
Get it from Amazon for $20.98+ (available in packs, in a refill size, and in two different scents).
2. An all-purpose car upholstery cleaner so you can deep-clean your car interior whether you're dealing with stains from vomit, coffee (me), waterproof sunscreen, milk, or soda. You'll be saying, "Oh, that's the original color."
Promising review: "Holy moly, how did I never know that this existed?? This cleaner is nothing short of a miracle!! My backseat bench has been dirty with mystery stains now for at least a decade, stains that were created by little kids, various passengers, cargo, who knows. I tried EVERYTHING to get out the hazy, dirty staining on my charcoal-colored seats to no avail. Hot water and soap, alcohol based rubs, carpet cleaners, fabric cleaners — literally EVERYTHING, plus lots of elbow grease. I grew frustrated and resigned that my car will look like a dump forever. Then I started doing some research and came upon this cleaner. Many reviews stated it was the best thing ever, car sites named it their top choice, etc. I decided its worth a last-ditch try, and boy I am so glad I did! It took four to five sprays, some minor agitating and rubbing with a broad brush, wipe off with the enclosed cloth, and whaddaya know?? POOF! STAINS GONE! I simply can't believe how easy this was and how pain free. I will go tomorrow and clean ALL my car seats! I highly recommend this, it’s the bomb." —Manddun
Get it from Amazon for $16.97+ (available in two sizes).
3. A ChomChom pet hair remover to put your regular ol' lint roller straight out of business. This little miracle worker collects everything in a neat compartment for you to empty out, getting rid of the hassle and waste of ripping off half-effective sticky sheets. It works so well it *literally* has over 100,000 5-star ratings.
Promising review: "I am allergic to cats so here I am with two cats who shed like wild. Their hair is covering all the furniture. I have special pet covers on my bed to protect my comforter but I hate having to sleep under it since my cats sleep on my bed. I have tried so many cat hair remover brushes, gloves, sponges that never worked. I was ready to shave the cats and call it a day. Then along comes the ChomChom brush. I had seen it on TikTok. It not only has the lint roller but a bar that collects the hair. I love the little hairball container of the roller so I don't have to spend time cleaning off the lint brush. I can't believe this product works! I have an off-white couch and I didn't realize how much hair there was. After I used it, my couch looked lighter in color. I got my comforter cleaned off in minutes. It's a simple and inexpensive way to cure your pet hair woes." —Dondi
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.

4. Heavy-duty cleaning wipes for getting rid of tough stains and crusted-on messes, even if they've been sitting for YEARS. Yes, that includes your never-been-cleaned kitchen floor and the grimy interior of your car — the pics don't lie.
Promising review: "I think these wipes are made out of magic because they can clean just about anything with very little effort! One wipe cleaned my ENTIRE BATHTUB, including the hard-water buildup and some residual soap scum. The wipe stayed wet for the entire use, and there was absolutely no sweating involved. I hate cleaning but I was so pumped about the tub, I took wipe #2 to my hood vent and, good golly, it's like it's brand-new. I've told everyone I know to buy these." —JenM
Get a 90-pack from Amazon for $14.98 (available in various sizes).
5. A pumice stone prepared to obliterate stubborn stains left behind by weeks (months?...years???) of lime scale, hard water, calcium, iron, and rust, because your regular toilet brush is frankly no match on its own.
Promising reviews: "TikTok made me buy this. This thing literally scoured away hard-water stains that I have been trying to get rid of for years in less than 30 seconds. 10/10 recommend." —Tleary25
"They should really call this product a magic wand." —MK
Get it from Amazon for $9.59 (also available as a pack of two and four).
6. A pack of dishwasher cleaning tablets for giving your favorite appliance the cleaning it deserves and so desperately needs – because it's probably a *lot* dirtier than you realize. These tabs help remove limescale, mineral buildup, and odor-emitting residue, while making sure your dishes come out that much cleaner, too.
Promising review: "After using this product, I am happy to report that my $5 investment saved me over $500. I was ready to replace my dishwasher, due to super cloudy glasses, residue, and just not getting clean. I was ordering some stuff from Amazon anyway, so I added Affresh to my order. I did not expect the results I got! The glassware that I thought was permanently etched and ruined came out like new. Same with cutlery. The difference is unbelievable. I am amazed!" —Sheila
Get a six-pack from Amazon for $8.95.
7. A plant-based stainless steel cleaner kit that polishes as it cleans so your appliances will glisten and gleam without the streaks that other cleaners leave. Smudges, fingerprints, and grime — say goodbye (and good riddance).
My former colleague Brittany Ross owns this and loves it: "I don't know what kind of fairy dust this plant-based spray is hiding inside, but it made my mucked-up fridge sparkle within a MINUTE! I was skeptical when I first sprayed it onto my fridge because it took a second for the streaks to start fading, but lo and behold, there was *zero* residue left behind after a super brief wipe sesh. Once I saw how downright dazzling my fridge looked, I decided to put it to the ~real~ test — my filthy dishwasher. Again, a minute of buffing with a microfiber towel was enough to make it look like a brand new appliance, and it worked wonders on the greasy stainless steel edges of my oven, too. I can confidently say I will never be without at least two bottles of this magic spray in my house for as long as I live."
Promising review: "This is a miracle worker on stainless steel. I have tried everything to get my stainless to shine like it should, even the home remedies, which do NOT work — sorry but they don't. This stuff is the best I have tried. I follow a girl on TikTok that recommended it and she has been right 100% on her Amazon recommendations. She nailed it again. You will love this stuff." —Amazonwoman
Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (also available in packs of two and six and in a larger size).
8. A bestselling jar of The Pink Stuff, a part-cleaning paste, part-magic potion that's taken the internet by storm since it can clean pretty much anything — including stains on walls, grease on tiles and glass, and grime on cement, laminate, and wood.
Your weirdest, most stubborn stains just met their match.
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 $5.97.
9. A bleach- and phosphate-free red wine stain remover so the next time you're watching a horror movie with a glass of red and a jump scare makes you spill all over your fave sleeping shirt, you'll be able to treat your tee so effectively that you'd swear there was no spill in the first place.
BTW, it also works on stains from blood, coffee, soda, and even pet accidents.
Promising review: "When you have anything white in your house and you have a love for red wine, THIS PRODUCT IS A MUST! We had a dinner party of about 15 people in our house so I bought five bottles just in case. Someone spilled red wine on our brand-new white couch. I was so mad, but I used this stuff and it was GONE. It didn't just take most of the red wine out — the red wine was GONE! No trace of it at all! I will buy more!" —Alial
Get it from Amazon for $9.54.
10. A might-be-magic carpet cleaner and spot remover for addressing the spills and stains from any and all mishaps (think stains from spaghetti, red wine, pets, shoes, soda, and more) — by just spraying the affected area. Bless.
Check out this TikTok of the Folex carpet spot remover to see it for yourself!
Promising review: "There are products that you love and buy again. And then there are products that you loooooove and can’t live without. And then above that, there are a few select products that you revere and hold with the highest honor. This is that product. I have used Folex for years and it works wonders on everything from spilt coffee, wine, and dog messes, without any chemical smells or residue. But my love for Folex grew so much deeper when I dropped a 32-ounce jar of salsa down the stairs. My husband took one look and declared that the stairs were ruined and would need to be replaced. I took a look, grabbed the Folex and said, 'We’ve got this.' If you have children, pets or are very clumsy with your canned goods, you need this bulk-size jug in your arsenal of cleaning supplies." —Katie Tuite
Get it from Amazon for $6.65+ (available in packs of three and five).
11. A tennis shoe cleaner that'll make those kicks you've been wearing since 2018 look brand-spanking-new — so you'll be able to style them for another cool five years.
Promising review: "I have had my Nike Roshe runs for about a year now, and I don't go easy on them. I play sports and run in the dirt with them all the time, but I also like to wear them for fashion purposes. Pink Miracle helped restore my daily shoes to look like I just bought them — now I can wear them for even longer. Very pleased with Pink Miracle, I will buy it again when I run out of my bottle." —Romario
Get it from Amazon for $18.97+ (available in two sizes).
12. A bestselling, enzyme-activated stain and odor eliminator so you can finally get rid of the stain and the stink from your fur baby's latest accident, even if it's been sitting on your carpet for months. Just spray, let sit for 30 minutes to an hour, and blot dry.
To use, apply the product to the stain, and let sit for 30–60 minutes. Then blot and let air-dry. It also works for cleaning up kennels, pet carriers, and litter boxes. One reviewer even used it to clean up milk that had rotted in their carpet.
Promising review: "I don’t know how I ever survived without this. There’s tons of 'pet stain/odor remover' products out there, but this by far is the absolute best. I cringed paying the $20 for it when others are between $5–$10, but I have NO ISSUES paying now. I foster dogs, some puppies, some older, some not housebroken, and every room in my house is carpeted except the kitchen, which means I have lots of accidents. I spray enough to saturate if it’s a lot of urine, let it soak for 10 minutes, then wipe it up with a hand towel. Then I put a larger towel on top of it if it’s in a high-traffic area until it’s completely dry. It’s taken out every stain and more importantly the odor is gone! I will never stop buying this product. I recommend it to everyone who has dogs!" —Shelly

13. A fume-free oven cleaner to tackle the tough grease and baked-on spills in your oven and grill with just a spray and a wipe 💅 'cause now you're a professional.
Promising review: "Ridiculously impressive. I hadn't cleaned my oven in...well, ever. It's been *at least* eight years since it was cleaned. Mounds of baked on black plague, a window on the door that hadn't been transparent probably since it came out of the box by the original owners, and nary a base surface to be seen anywhere. I sprayed about half the can and let it sit for about 16 hours. When I went to see how well it did or didn't work, I was floored. The mounds of filth and gunk came up like layers of mud. A quarter roll of paper towels and 15 minutes later and the entire interior of the oven was 90% clean. No elbow grease needed. Seriously beyond impressed with whatever magic was used in this formula, but I'll never have a filthy oven again with how easy it is to clean with this stuff." —Kyle Vick
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $17.27.
14. A bestselling stove top cleaner kit that'll cut through all the scorch marks and burnt food on your ceramic cooktop and restore your kitchen back to its shiny former glory.
The kit includes the cleaning solution, a scraper tool for tough burnt-on food spills, and a scratch-free scrubbing pad.
Promising review: "This product is amazing!!! I cannot believe what it took off our stovetop! We bought a house and the electric stove was left and I had tried everything to get it looking new and clean, EVERYTHING. I'd seen this on TikTok and figured I’d give it a shot and WOW am I glad I did. Hello new clean stove." —Customer
Get it from Amazon for $18.98.
15. Plus, a gas range cleaning spray for dissolving all the grease and grime that your roommates left to essentially bake on your stove top.
This stuff is THE TRUTH. My (Daniel's) roommate is the best, but let's just say wiping down the stove after cooking is not one of her favorite activities. I'm not particular fond of doing the dishes, so I guess we're even. Anyways, I spray this on a few times a week, let it sit for about five minutes, then wipe with a cloth and it removes EVERYTHING. Like, every little spot of caked-on grease and burnt crumbs come off with just one wipe.
Get a two pack from Amazon for $16.86.
16. Bar Keepers Friend powdered cleanser to breathe new life into just about anything that needs it, like car headlights, porcelain sinks, stovetops, pots and pans, and more.
To understand just *how* versatile this product is, check out our Bar Keepers Friend review.
Promising review: "It works like nothing I've ever used! I have an old stovetop, and it looked like something had eaten into the surface. I was totally surprised when it took the hard crud off. I also used this on some old Revere Ware cookware I'd bought for my Hope Chest back when I was 17, and this scrubbed 40 years of stains off in about 60 seconds. Fantastic stuff that I'm sorry it took me so long to find. I use it on all my pots, pans and baking glass now, and will never let myself run out of it from now on." —annacolleen
Get it from Amazon for $8.38.
17. A 20-pack of cleaning erasers that are way more affordable than name brands while still providing, um, magic results, if you get what I mean. All you need is just some water for these bbs to spring to action, lifting away tough stains, crud, and grime.
Promising review: "These babies have transformed and reformed my slobby life. My dog sitter thought I got a new sink and fridge. I have never had more fun cleaning in my life — wait, I have never had any fun cleaning. But these magical creatures make it so freaking satisfying. No toxic stuff. No fumes. Just heavenly cleanliness." —Jimmy Jim Ereeno

18. A chemical-free concentrated leather cleaner to restore your dull, dry, or scratched leather to basically how it was when you first got it. You can use it on *literally* anything made from leather!
Promising review: "I bought a sorta white leather sectional for $150 stained and dirty but no major wear or tears. Well, the pictures tell it all! It took at least three cycles of gentle scrubbing and wiping off raised dirt and a little extra for bad stains! A lot of elbow grease but holy crap! Super nice couch now!" —iPoutside365

19. A heavy-duty professional-strength grout cleaner that'll remove literal years of grimy grossness from your floors — and remind you that yes, your grout is actually white.
Promising review: "I never leave reviews on Amazon but this grout cleaner definitely deserved a review. I tried three other cleaners before buying Grout-eez and they did nothing but waste my time and money. Grout-eez got my grout perfectly clean in no time, plus it was easy to use and no odor. I'll never use another grout cleaner." —Tyler
Get it from Amazon for $21.95 (also available in various multipacks).

21. A jewelry-cleaning stick with a brush loaded with cleansing solution that's designed specifically to gently remove all the grime and oil on your bling. Its advanced polymer formula will help leave your jewelry sparkling, minus the hefty tag a professional cleaning would cost.
Promising review: "I absolutely love this product. I saw it on TikTok and figured I would give it a try. My grandmother passed away almost eight years ago, and she left me her first engagement ring in her will. I have tried so many jewelry cleaners, toothpaste and toothbrush, you name it, tried everything except for sending it away to get cleaned. Then I cleaned my ring with the Diamond Dazzle Stik. Now my ring is just as shiny as it was when my grandfather bought it for my grandmother many many years ago. I will definitely use this on all my jewelry. Highly recommended!" —Heather
Get it from Amazon for $8.88 (available in packs of two and three, and in a bundle).
22. A three-piece drill brush cleaning kit you can attach to a drill to bust through all your hard grime for you, freeing you from a week's worth of sore arms just because you dared to clean your shower. Your brush will literally be powered by a drill — just IMAGINE how effective that'll be.
The kit comes with a 2-inch scrub brush, a 4-inch diameter flat brush, and a drill brush power scrubber. If you happen to need a drill, here's a good Black & Decker one. And check out our Drill Brush attachment review for more on just how well it works!
Drill Brush is a small business based in New York that makes cleaning brushes that attach to drills. It was started in 2007 by a former electrician with carpal tunnel who needed a way to clean without causing himself harm.
Note: Each color of the Drill Brush attachment corresponds to the type of bristles they have, and each one is best suited for a specific type of cleaning job (for example, the yellow brush has medium bristles, best used for bathroom cleaning — bathtubs, showers, tile, and porcelain). Be sure to check the listing for which color is best for your intended purpose before buying!
Promising reviews: "So I kept seeing this item on TikTok and thought, 'Heck, why not?' I love this item for deep cleaning, whether it's car mats, shoes, or the shower." —A. givens

"Works great. I have a ceramic tile kitchen floor with light gray grout. Even after steam cleaning, the grout was almost black in some areas. After one use with this, the floor looks like new. It was easy on my back and arm. The scrubber did all the work." —Kindle Customer

24. A unique Uproot hair removal broom with a metal rake-like edge to remove the deeply rooted dust and pet and human hair from your carpet and other large surface areas that are too ingrained for your vacuum to reach.
Its handle adjusts up to 60 inches high so you can customize it to you.
I (Haley) live in a carpeted home with two *gorgeous* cats, but between them and my own hair, our carpets were starting to look pretty dingy. Our vacuum was helping do some damage control, but I was worried the carpet might have hair trapped deep down in its fibers. Bad news first: I was right, but the good news was that one round with this rake-like broom, and the carpets look practically new again. It brought up multiple fists-worth of hair, dust, and debris — so much hair that tbh it was a little shocking lol. It did take a little elbow grease and felt like a bit of an arm workout, but I didn't really mind since the results were such a relief (and I've been wanting to exercise a little more anyway). I'm so happy I invested in this, and it's worth the money for anyone with carpets who's ready for a deep cleaning solution that isn't just slapping a bandaid on the problem.
Promising review: "I don't typically write product reviews, but I felt compelled to sing the praises of this one, because WOW did it make a huge difference! I have three dogs and three cats, so as you can imagine, things get a little hairy. After using it once, my carpets look brand new. I was astonished by how much hair came out of the carpets, since we vacuum every day and even have a Roomba. But this gets down where the vacuums can't reach." —Leslie
Get it from Amazon for $49.99.
25. A jetted tub cleaner for easily flushing out all the dirty soap, bath and body oils, and other gunk building up in your jets. Just run your water, pour in the cleaner, and turn on your jets — 15 minutes later, they'll be squeaky clean *and* run better than they have in years.
Promising review: "I cannot believe how well this product works!!! I've always just used the bleach and hot water method to clean my jets, but I had a feeling it wasn't getting the job done. I saw this product on TikTok and decided to give it a try. I followed the directions and wasn't really expecting too much. Hand on my Bible 🤚, WITHIN SECONDS of me adding the product to the tub and turning my tub jets on, gunk started coming out of the jet!!! WITHIN SECONDS!!! I couldn't believe how quickly it started working and all the green cottage-cheese-like stuff it forced out of my tub jets!!! I ran my tub for 15 minutes and...voila! Clean jets. I highly recommend this product and will definitely be relying on this stuff for all my future jet cleanings." —Robin

26. A fast-acting Goo Gone kitchen degreaser that one reviewer dubs a "kitchen treasure." In short, this biodegradable superstar cuts through all things grease and grime, plus it's safe to use on any surface including on ceramic, sealed stone, and tile. This is gold-standard stuff.
27. A pack of all-natural bottle-cleaning tablets to remove caked-on stains and weird odors from those water bottles and coffee tumblers that you've been meaning to wash for a while now. Just fill your mug up, drop a tablet in, and let it get to work.
These are biodegradable and odor-free.
Promising review: "I seriously can't believe how well these little tablets work. I had the most disgusting Hydro Flask coffee mug — I tried everything. A bottle brush, different kinds of soap, vinegar, EVERYTHING, and there was still a seemingly impenetrable layer of black sludge inside. I let a tablet sit in each of my mugs for an hour or two, and the black sludge rinsed out COMPLETELY, without even scrubbing. They look brand-new. What a magical product. No weird smell or taste afterward, either. I liked it so much I used it on another Hydro Flask I use primarily to hold my Bloody Mary mix in the fridge. I couldn't put anything else in it because it would always taste like spicy tomato juice. Bottle Bright to the rescue! No residual smell or taste anymore. AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING." —Amazon Customer

28. A makeup brush cleaning shampoo for giving your makeup brushes and blenders a much-needed deep clean, so you can get rid of all the dirt, bacteria, and even fungi that can cause breakouts and irritation. If you can't remember the last time you cleaned your makeup brushes (which TBH is a lot of us), this is your sign that it's time.
Promising review: "Best, most affordable brush-and-sponge shampoo on the market! No joke, I have tried everything; even homemade hacks like dish detergent mixed with olive oil. Nothing works like this brush shampoo. Don't waste your money on the Beauty Blender soap and other big-name brands." —Lily
Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (also available as a pack of two and in a travel size).
29. A sprayable "miracle cleaner" that'll remove every bit of grime clinging to those oven racks you've been avoiding cleaning since you moved in. Good thing this heavy-duty spray is here to make the task easier than you thought possible.
Promising review: "I have a roommate who constantly fries everything. The walls have streaks of dirty vegetable oil running down them. GP66 got rid off all the oily wall streaks easily and made the walls great for painting. My housecleaner loves this stuff and asked me to order more for her." —Denis Dellaloggia
Get it from Amazon for $21.99 (available in two sizes).
30. A descaling solution for getting rid of the aggressive lime scale buildup inside your electric kettle or coffee maker, because, bad news: The interior *also* needs cleaning. The good news? Your water will heat faster and your coffee will taste *that* much better after you give descaling a whirl.
Promising review: "I had never even thought of descaling my two-year-old Keurig before Amazon suggested it, but this stuff was cheap, I knew I was supposed to descale regularly, and I knew this kind of descaler wouldn't be as hard to rinse out as the smell of vinegar. I honestly wasn't expecting much, but the next morning it took much less time for the water to heat up and my coffee tasted twice as strong and rich as it did before descaling, which means the brewing temperature is higher now that the heating element isn't caked with mineral deposits. Now I feel a little silly for drinking mediocre coffee for so long." —Lenore
