    37 Cleaning Products To Help You Conquer Your Procrastination Habit

    There's likely other things you'd rather be doing than cleaning your garbage disposal, but you'll be *so* satisfied once it's done.

    1. A refillable toilet wand you can load up with your favorite toilet cleaner (if you have one, I guess?) and go to town cleaning whenever the mood (or necessity) strikes. The silicone head is super durable and won't scratch your bowl!

    Promising review: "I don’t have anything bad to say about it, it’s easy to squeeze out the cleaner, it doesn’t drip any cleaner out unless you squeeze it, I use a gel cleaner and worth the money! Way better then those hard bristled ones that you have to keep replacing because they get so rusty and nasty looking after a while. Plus it just looks so cute now." —Jessica

    Get it from Amazon for $24.95.

    2. A jar of internet-beloved The Pink Stuff, which is an all-purpose cleaning paste that'll help you tackle all of your messes but make it *~pretty in pink~* at the same time. You may not be in the mood to clean at first, but when you see how incredible this product works you might just find yourself cleaning anything and everything with it!

    www.amazon.com, Heather Braga / BuzzFeed

    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 (seen above, right) 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: "Honestly I was very skeptical when I first purchased. Everyone on social media was talking about how amazing this product was for cleaning around the house and I just thought they were all jumping on some kind of band wagon. Of course I caved and had to try it for myself. Needless to say I’m very impressed! It removed stubborn mold and grime from my shower tile grout with use of a hard bristle tooth brush. It removed hard water stains from my sinks and faucets. I noticed it really does remove mineral build up, but it takes a lot of elbow grease and repetitive applications before you start seeing progress. The texture feels similar to when you mix honey with sugar to make a lip scrub, except it’s super fine grit and more pasty like putty or clay. It works amazing so far! No overpowering smell (barely any smell at all), easy to use, and a little product goes a long way. I haven’t tried it on rust yet so we’ll see how that goes. Over all very pleased and impressed so far. Highly recommend!" —Marissa

    Get it from Amazon for $5.97.

    3. A laundry detergent holder that'll prevent your washing machine from getting covered in unwanted soap scum and make it easier than ever to disperse the liquid — a must-have if, for you, the thought of trying to lift that heavy bottle of detergent makes you put-off doing laundry altogether.

    Skywin is a small business that makes an array of home organizational products.

    Promising review: "Loving this product.❤️ I no longer have to struggle to hold my club-size laundry detergent jug while trying to dispense laundry soap. The band is great because it holds my club size laundry jug to my new detergent holder, preventing my detergent from falling to the floor. this detergent holder is also wide enough for any club-size laundry jug." —Annabell

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in seven colors).

    4. A garbage-disposal foaming cleaner to scrub away the stinky grime that builds up on the blades and in the pipes. It's so entertaining to watch you might find yourself wondering why you procrastinated to do it for so long.

    Look at that foam go!

    Promising review: "We moved into a townhouse that had a garbage disposal in the kitchen. Never had one growing up and didn't think too much about it until the funky smell started. I researched ways to clean it and came across these. Decided to order a four pack and try them. THEY ARE LIFE CHANGING. Just run some water, toss the packet in, and turn on the disposal. The little packet does all the hard work for you. I order a new set as soon as we start to run low." —lucas broshears

    Get it from Amazon for $3.78.

    5. A bottle of mold and mildew remover, so your bathroom's grout can resemble the likes of that fabulous resort you've been eyeing for your next tropical vacation. You'll pat yourself on the back for *finally* tackling this task, as daunting as it may seem.

    BuzzFeed Shopping editor's before-and-after of a moldy corner of a shower compared to the mold almost completely gone
    Heather Braga / BuzzFeed

    There wasn't a lot of ventilation in my apartment bathroom, so during the summer the grout used to get gunky and gross looking from the humidity. I had been battling this specific bathroom grime for weeks and tried a whole array of products to no avail. Finally, I purchased Skylarlife Home Mold and Mildew Remover Gel. The results were outstanding. It’s super simple: put on a pair of gloves and apply the clear gel around your grout. Let it sit for 5–6 hours (I suggest opening all your windows, it’s got a strong smell) then rinse it off with cold water. 

    Promising review: "Wow! I would give this 10 stars if I could. We've had issues for a few years with the caulking behind the handle of our kitchen faucet turning black from mildew. We've scrubbed with what seems like a million different products, with no luck. We were actually just talking about ripping out the caulking and doing a total replacement. But my husband saw this online the other day and decided to order it. Almost immediately when he applied it, you could see it was starting to work. We left it on overnight and the black is COMPLETELY GONE! It's incredible. 1,000% worth the (small) investment." —Nicole D.

    Get it from Amazon for $14.99.

    6. Affresh cleaning tablets to toss into your dishwasher and easily get rid of that yucky smell that seems to appear after a few washes — it'll banish lime and mineral build-up and leave your dishes nice 'n' clean. It also requires such minimal effort you won't have a hard time convincing yourself to do it.

    I have these tablets and use them all the time! They work especially great after the bottom of my dishwasher has gotten stained with residue from detergent or rusty-looking liquid after I've run my baking sheets through the wash. I love knowing I can just pop one into the dishwasher 1, 2, 3, and end up with a clean machine.

    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. Then I saw a product test review for Affresh in Good Housekeeping magazine. I was ordering some stuff from Amazon anyway, so I added that 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 it from Amazon for $8.95.

    7. And a box of washing machine cleaning tablets you can use to easily remove any odor-causing residue from inside your machine — you don't want your clothes to smell, do ya?

    You can use this product on both front-load and top-load washing machines. I ran it through the old washing machine that was left in my new house (beggars can't be choosers!) and it came out nice and clean. 

    Promising review: "Works great. My washer started smelling like sour clothes. In turn, my clothes were smelling sour as well. I plopped an Affresh Tab in the washer and let it do its magic. After it was done I opened the washer and to my surprise there was no smell at all. This is a six-pack so buy one box for half a year or two boxes, and only have to order once per year. Definitely recommend." —jcski

    Get it from Amazon for $11.98 (also available in a six-pack).

    8. A ChomChom pet hair roller with a unique patented brush design, so you'll be able to sit down without fear of being covered head-to-toe in your pet's hair. Your black leggings will thank you for finally getting around to putting this tool to the test.

    Jenae Sitzes / BuzzFeed

    BuzzFeed editor Jenae Sitzes adores this product:

    "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. Afterward, you'll just dump out the hair that's been trapped inside. The ChomChom is best for large flat surfaces like couches and beds. 

    Get it from Amazon for $24.95.

    9. A set of cleaning K-Cups that'll rinse away all the coffee grounds from your past beverages. You really should just hype yourself up to do this annoying (but simple) cleaning task — your coffee will taste so much better!

    Promising review: "I bought this product because the needle in my Keurig 2.0 keeps clogging, causing inconsistent brew and taste. These cleaning cups fixed both of my issues and I especially liked that it was really quick and easy to use… I put the cleaning pod in and ran one cycle, then took the pod out and ran a rinse cycle to clean out any leftover grinds. FAST, EASY, and GREAT results…VERY HAPPY!!" —Corey West

    Get it from Amazon for $9.95.

    10. An instant carpet spot remover spray, so when your bestie accidentally drips salsa off of their chip and onto your carpet you can get to it right away instead of putting a potted plant over to hide the damage.

    Promising review: "I have a white couch and my dog loves to jump up after being outside. Sometimes she has mud on her paws and this product removes the stains COMPLETELY. We’ve had red wine and spaghetti sauce spilled on it and zero trace is left after using this. Best part, my couch fabric doesn’t get damaged by the chemicals either. I’ve ordered 12 of these and we have one in every room and in our cars. Hands-down nothing beats this spray. I’ve tried pet stain removers, DIY recommendations, stuff with vinegar… only this product works. Pay the cost for this! It’s totally worth it! 100 stars if I could." —Lauren R.

    Get it from Amazon for $6.65.

    11. A Wet & Forget shower cleaner you can use to clean your shower with the least amount of effort ever — seriously, you just leave it for the day then rinse it off and enjoy how sparkly and clean the glass will be!

    Reviewer image of before and after dirt stained shower and clean shower
    White bottle that reads Wet & Forget Shower

    Promising review: "I had a horrible gray ring on the bottom of my shower that was impossible to remove. I had tried the Dawn Dish Soap method (with a lot of scrubbing), and even used toilet bowl cleaner to try to remove the soap scum. My next step was to tear out and replace the shower pan and tile. I figured this was my last chance and ordered the Wet and Forget Shower Spray and really coated the shower walls and floor pan and walked away. I CANNOT begin to tell you how happy I was to rinse down the walls sometime later and watch all that crud roll right down the drain!! This is the best product I have ever used in my life!! Works great and no toxic fumes!!" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $20.98.

    12. An automatic cleaning toilet bowl cartridge to pop into the top of your tank — it'll last up to three months and clean with every single flush. Now that's a cleaning product worth testing out.

    Promising review: "This works absolutely phenomenal. I would clean the bowl area every weekend like clock work to remove mold or something…Our municipal water system may not inject enough chlorine to prohibit? But toilet cleaning is a breeze now!!! Works on the Kohler new low-flush systems…amazing. No chlorine damage to rubber parts either like other devices! Pretty simple instructions to install." —CdrW

    Get it from Amazon for $10.53 (and you can snag refill cartridges here).

    13. A cleaning pen so all of your jewels (whether they're real or not) will be *so* sparkly everyone will wonder where you got 'em from. You'll be *dazzled* by how little time and effort it takes to bring your items back to life.

    This seemingly average little cleaning pen is filled with a high-performance formula that cleans jewelry like nothing I've ever experienced. It contains micro-fine cleansers, polishing agents, and a polymer that will make your gems so shiny they'll nearly blind you. I've used it on my diamond rings, but it also works wonders on my cubic zirconia earrings.

    Promising review: "My life has changed since I discovered this. I was previously using a toothbrush and found that it just wasn't getting all the gunk underneath my diamond. I have no idea what kind of magic is in this cleaning stick but my ring looks brand new after cleaning. The bristles are soft and firm at the same time, allowing you to get all around the prongs and underneath the stone." —Ay

    Get it from Amazon for $8.88.

    14. A set of Bottle Bright tablets to restore your favorite thermos to its original shiny state. Your go-to coffee mug will shine brighter than the Chrysler building!

    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 — bottle brush, different kinds of soap, vinegar, EVERYTHING — and there was still a seemingly impenetrable layer of black sludge inside. It grossed me out so much that I bought ANOTHER Hydro Flask to replace it. Eventually they both got black inside, so I tried these little magic tablets. 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 that 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

    Get it from Amazon for $8.

    15. A makeup brush-cleansing shampoo, because — shocker — you need to clean those! It'll remove all the leftover residue from your beauty products right before your eyes like ✨magic✨.

    editor's before and after of their makeup brushes being cleaned with the shampoo
    Heather Braga / BuzzFeed

    After reading about how necessary it is to actually clean your makeup brushes (I know, I KNOW, I should’ve been doing this for years) I was super grossed out and motivated to order the right supplies to do the job. I’ve heard good things about Ecotools makeup brush-cleansing shampoo so I figured I’d start there. The Amazon listing also suggested buying a silicone makeup brush cleaning pad to go with it so I figured... why not? Well, now I’m patting myself on the back because ordering these two items was a LIFE CHANGER!

    I could not believe how much residue came off my brushes in just one cleaning. You only need to use a little dab of the shampoo, so one bottle will definitely last a long time. The silicone pad made it super easy to thoroughly lather the brushes without leaving my bathroom sink in shambles. I also loved how each section was labeled with which brush should be cleaned in each area. My brushes look brand new! Don’t hesitate like I did — buy both the shampoo and the mat ASAP.

    Get it from Amazon for $6.99.

    16. A putty-like cleaning gel that'll help you remove all the dust and debris from the hard-to-reach crevices in your car. Psh, and to think you were going to PAY someone to clean out your car. You can totally break this out the next time your partner hops out to pump gas — it'll only take a few seconds!

    Promising review: "This product works just as intended. I was afraid it would become dirty and unusable quickly but it has held up well. I also found myself using it as a stress ball/fidget tool while driving too and from work." —Samantha

    Get it from Amazon for $5.94.

    17. A pack of Tide To Go pens, because even if you already own one you'd absolutely benefit from stocking up and keeping one in every bag you own — no more letting that coffee stain acquired when rushing to the train soak into your favorite top until you get home (and inevitably forget to treat).

    Promising review: "I was on vacation and dropped a dab of chocolate sauce on my near-white shorts. Aarrggh!! I couldn't see how to save them from the inevitable (and quite obvious) stain. To the rescue, my buddy's elegant girlfriend pulled this magical pen from her purse and erased the chocolate blob, saving my shorts. I immediately purchased a pack of pens: one at home, one in my carry-on, and one in my briefcase. Get some!!" —Numma Tuscon

    Get a pack of three from Amazon for $7.74.

    18. The Clean Ball, a sphere with a cage-like design and a sticky inside that'll collect all the stray crumbs from inside of your handbag with literally zero effort on your end. Absolutely magical.

    Promising review: "I found out about this little gadget on a TikTok video, and I thought I'd give it a try. I usually keep some sort of snack in my purse, and as much as I try to keep the containers sealed and to keep my bags clean, I inevitably end up with those annoying little 'micro-crumbs' at the bottom. As soon as I ordered this ball, I put it straight into my purse, and within a day or two, it was already time to wash it! It picks up a lot for being so small!" —Sarah Couv

    Get it from Amazon for $11.29 (available in three colors).

    19. portable car vacuum that'll help you battle the seemingly endless amount of crumbs that somehow make their way in between your seats despite the fact you rarely eat in your car. You'll feel as refreshed as your car looks when you convince yourself to take a break from Wordle and get some cleaning done instead.

    Promising review: "I was a little skeptical at first seeing all the mixed reviews but I wish I had taken a pic of my driver side cause that was the worst of it but there was a lot of buildup from me just not having the time or energy to clean my car but this vacuum is AMAZING! You can see the clear difference between those two photos. 11/10 would HIGHLY recommend." —Kayla

    Get it from Amazon for $34.52.

    20. A pumice cleaning stone you can count on to make your toilet actually sparkle like a porcelain throne — minimal effort needed.

    Promising review: "This product has far exceeded my expectations. We have well water and often get water stains even with an advanced water filtration system. I clean the toilets with bleach heavy toilet cleaners at least biweekly. I was always left with a ‘ring’ that I thought just came with well water toilets. Well. This has changed my life, really. I scrubbed one toilet less than ten minutes and it’s basically brand new. No more nasty toilet rings!! Just try it! You don’t have much more than $9 to lose. BTW I never usually leave reviews, but this thing has made me so happy!! I will never be without this product!" —Nicole

    Get it from Amazon for $9.59.

    21. A flexible cleaning brush that'll pull all of the hard-to-reach pieces of lint out of your dryer. I truly can't think of anything more satisfying, TBH. This is absolutely not a task you should put off — trapped lint is actually a (scary!) fire hazard!

    Promising review: "Works perfectly for scrubbing the stuck lint out of the insides of your dryer. Everyone who owns a dryer should have these, they're basic safety equipment. Clean that lint, and reduce the fire hazard and make the machine more efficient. They're long enough, strong enough, and just flexible enough without being too flexible." —Winged Wolf

    Get it from Amazon for $8.95.

    22. A giant lint roller on a stick you'll find yourself reaching for time and time again — especially before guests arrive. It'll let you remove all the pet hair and lint from your furniture without having to bend and struggle to get to hard-to-reach spots.

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 $23.85.

    23. A set of toilet fizzing bombs that'll quite possibly make you excited to clean your potty! All you have to do is drop one or two of these in the bowl, swish them around in the water a bit with a cleaning wand, wait five minutes, scrub, and flush — magical.

I have four sticky boys that were always leaving marks on my appliances and would use Weiman's stainless steel cleaner which was a JOKE compared to this miracle of a product! Now, cleaning my appliances is a joy! I wake up each morning eager to clean my stainless steel." —martha

    Get it from Amazon for $19.95.

    25. A scrubber brush that'll attach to your drill (!!!) and help you clean your tub/shower like you've never cleaned it before but without the arm workout. You'll be singing "I've got the powerrrr" in no time!

    Additionally, Drill Brush is a small business based in New York!

    Promising review: "I've been eyeing these for a few months and finally caved.. Man do I regret not picking them up as soon as I saw them! They work GREAT! We rent an apartment that has a 30+ year old shower/tub. I've used everything from abrasive powders, gels that sit to most recently the bathroom magic erasers and nothing really got the grime out. These WORK and they work fast. Ten minutes with my handy drill and the shower has never been cleaner. I love that I don't have to throw money out on cleaning products anymore and that I can be a little more environmentally friendly with no waste and no chemical cleaners! Just a little dish soap, baking soda and a spin of the brush. If you're on the fence, just buy them!" —Becky Adie

    Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in six strength types).

    26. A jetted-tub cleaner, so you'll never find yourself soaking in filth while trying to catch up on your me-time. All you have to do is pour it in and turn the jets on — easy-peasy.

    I personally can vouch for how amazing this product is. I watched with my own eyes as it magically cleared out the gross-ness from my previous apartment's jetted tub's pipes. It's pretty disgusting and incredible.

    Promising review: "This stuff is amazing! I’ve cleaned my jets recently with laundry detergent (something I saw to do on Pinterest) but it was no match to this life changing cleaner!! Absolutely fabulous. Will be purchasing more and adding it to my cleaning routine! THANK YOU!!" —Stephie B

    Get it from Amazon for $17.84.

    27. A grooming glove that'll make removing excess hair from your pet as easy as snuggling up with them and giving them lots of love-filled pets. Sounds like a win-win!

    Promising review: "Fantastic dog grooming aid! Our older rescue dog isn't too keen on the routine dog brushing stuff but her thick coat really needs the grooming — this dog grooming glove is the exactly right answer. Put the glove on, pet the dog, and all that loose hair comes away leaving her coat feeling so much smoother and softer without causing her to be nervous or upset over a brushing. Highly recommend, and yes I'm going to be ordering as gifts for a couple of other dog owners I know!" —DSP

    Get it from Amazon for $8.99.

    28. Rubbermaid's power scrubbing brush, for when reality sets in and you acknowledge your not-so-wholehearted weekly cleanings are simply not doing the trick. Put on your favorite cleaning playlist and make it a fun lil' Sunday morning event.

    Promising review: "The Power Scrubber is life changing. I bought it several weeks ago with the intention of doing a deep clean 'sometime soon.' After an overflowing toilet incident, I had to make sure it got done right away. MY GROUT HAS NEVER BEEN CLEANER. I used some Comet and spray cleaner to get the job done, but this made short work for what typically requires 'a lot of elbow grease' and a spent toothbrush. With this tool, you really know you're getting in there and it's clean. I can't recommend this enough — I've already mentioned it to a neighbor, and a few friends, including one fanatical cleaner. We all agreed, it's such a necessary, perfect product." —Jojo

    29. Dawn Platinum Powerwash Dish Spray, which smells so freakin' good you might just get distracted from how wonderfully it works! All you'll have to do is spray it onto caked on food and grease, wait a lil', then rinse or wipe it away to reveal a perfectly clean pan. Think of it as a more productive alternative than dousing your pan in soap and water and leaving it in the sink overnight (guilty).

    I recently tried this stuff for the first time and can confirm it's fantastic. I use it on my frying pans and the grill pans from my Griddler (which is ALWAYS a pain to clean). It loosens all the gunk and makes it much easier to clean burnt bits and pieces off. It also really does smell incredible — very fresh and delightful!

    Promising review: "This is the best partner in the kitchen!! You need it now and always. Great for hard stains and even for a quick clean. I always have back ups never run out. RUN DON'T WALK TO ADD THIS PRODUCT TO YOUR CART RIGHT NOW." —Carlos G

    Promising review: "These things are AMAZING! I went from having to Clorox my ultrasonic humidifier tank every few days to every month, if that. I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to not have to worry about it! I feel like they work quite a bit longer than advertised, but that may depend on water temp, if the water is distilled (this is what we use, as our water is REALLY hard otherwise) vs filtered vs not, etc. Will definitely buy again!" —CindyR

    Get it from Amazon for $5.29.

    31. Grandma's Secret, a spot remover that'll remind you to respect those who are older and wiser — it's *that* good. It'll make blood (!!!) pet stains, oil, paint, and other pesky substances vanish into thin air. Set aside some time, break it out, and work on removing all of the stains throughout your home.

    Car Guys' Super Cleaner can be used on upholstery, canvas, leather, vinyl, plastic, and rubber.

    Promising review: "I have used every product that you can find on the shelves of your local store. When I sprayed the cleaner on the light beige interior of a 25-plus-year-old car, the interior turned to its original color. After years of detailing, I had assumed at this point, the color was set and that's it — not with this stuff. While cleaning it I literally said out loud, 'No way, no way,' because I was in disbelief at how amazing it worked, and the results are in the compliments I receive from friends." —Andrea Garcia
