1. A foaming cleaner that is SO easy to use. Just throw one down the drain, run some water and the disposal, and watch the blue foam come up, cleaning out all the gunk and grime from years of testing new recipes.
Promising review: "Easy to use. I followed directions, and it works just like it says. I only use this once every month now. First use I had to do it twice (which it says if it hasn’t been cleaned in a while you may need to). Weekly I follow up with the Glisten Garbage Disposal Freshener and that keeps my disposal working well and smelling great." —Lostbraincell

2. An indoor insect trap because all those little bugs flying around the produce on your counter have gotten out-of-hand. I mean seriously, how can something that small be that annoying?!
Promising review: "Last fall I experienced a problem with gnats when I brought my house plants inside. I tried sticky stakes and placing vinegar and water in a plate to get rid of them. However, the gnats kept on coming back. I used the Katchy Indoor Insect Trap for four consecutive nights and it completely eliminated the gnats. A bit pricey, but this product worked very well for me." —David C.
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in two colors).
3. A reusable pet hair remover that'll help remove all the pet hair still on your couch even after you've vacuumed. This little tool works on pretty much any surface — furniture, upholstery, blankets, clothes — and you don't have to worry about constantly ripping off *another* sticky sheet.
Promising review: "I was cautiously optimistic, but this tool is as effective as everyone is saying. My couches, and especially my recliner, look brand-new. It takes little to no effort to use. Just use it in a 'scrubbing' type motion, and it catches and traps the fur (and other small debris, such as crumbs...) in the little compartment. Pop it open, empty it out. Done." —Ian K.
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two colors).
4. An eight-piece stackable bakeware set with nonstick coating so you can create delicious treats and store it all away into just the footprint of the largest pan when you're done. Buh-bye cabinet full of baking sheets, muffin tins, and pans that causes a ~racket~ every time you go through it.
Check out a TikTok of the bakeware in action.
This set contains two sheet pans, two muffin pans, a round cake pan, a loaf pan, a square cake pan, and a deep baking pan.
Promising review: "This makes so much sense. I have a variety of bakeware. It takes up a lot of precious storage space for the amount of baking that I do. This is awesome. Everything becomes neat into the footprint of the largest item. It has everything I need to keep on hand in my kitchen for everyday baking. I am so impressed with the quality too. The stackable storage is only secondary to the materials in these pans. They bake great; don’t warp; and they actually wash up very easily. Honestly, I hate scrubbing baked messes. The ceramic coating on these makes tackling the lasagna clean-up so much easier than any casserole or baking dish I’ve ever used. I love the fact that I can still have the convenience of nonstick bakeware without the chemicals and harmful substances that my older sets had. I am finally able to bake without guilt and clean up without a chisel." —Will-Review4u

5. A set of ~luxe~ velvet slip covers that will give your living room the refresh you've been wanting by making it seem like you bought a whole new couch. And you don't have to shell out a small fortune to have them reupholstered.
The four-piece set comes with a base cover and three individual cushion covers. AND these covers are also available in a smaller version for armchairs!
Promising review: "I have never been so excited about a slipcover. Total transformation of our couch and loveseat. I was worried about it not working on our leather couch, but it stays on really well due to the straps and the separate cushion covers. LOVE." —Brian/Liz
Get it from Amazon for $38.95+ (available in five sizes and 21 colors).
6. A mold and mildew removal gel you simply layer on, leave for a few hours, and wipe clean. Yes, that means NO SCRUBBING.
Former BuzzFeed Shopping editor Kayla Suazo uses this and raves: "This mildew remover can destroy any stain in its path. When I moved into my apartment, it looked like there hadn't been repairs since the '60s, and that included re-caulking the bathtub. I tried bleach and every type of shower cleaner at the store, but nothing removed the mold and mildew stains that had been there for like, 40 years. UNTIL I BOUGHT THIS INCREDIBLE MAGIC GEL. I am one happy customer."
Promising review: "I have scrubbed this caulk hundreds of times trying to clean it; it always stayed so gross. I decided to try this stuff and I am so glad I did!!! 10/10. I highly recommend you get this if you have any gross caulk. Follow the directions, and it works like a charm. Some spots were a little wet, so I am going to redo a couple of spots, but I couldn't be happier!" —Reviewer
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
7. Affresh dishwasher tablets that clean the nasty you can see, but also the *nasty* you can't see. Just place one where you would put a normal dishwashing pod, and marvel at the results.
Promising review: "I’ve been using this product for a while, and I’ve started to rely on it. I first used this out of desperation. My dishwasher was broken from a fried control panel. I eventually replaced the panel. I opened the dishwasher, and it was fairly gross. A little stagnant water gave way to some mold. I found this product and figured I’d give it a shot. I did need to use this two or three times before the dishwasher was cleaned and usable. But I find that a major win considering the shape it was in beforehand. Now I use it every month or two, and I have to say it's easier than cleaning by hand. Definitely worth the price I paid." —Justin
Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $8.50+ (available in three versions).
8. And some for your washing machine because I feel like we never remember to clean the things that are supposed to be cleaning other things…Like, of course our clothes come out stinky when we've literally never thought to clean the actual machine.
Promising review: "So impressive! These tablets really get rid of the funk smell in your washer. I use one on the factory setting for tub wash on my washer and then after that, run a regular cycle to make sure all the tablet residue is gone. Once a month is all it takes! Big difference!" —Bendy W
Get it from Amazon for $6.95+ (available in packs of three, five, and six).
9. A miracle carpet cleaning solution you can put into the carpet cleaner machine you already own and get up those stains that have been haunting you for the past two years.
Sunny & Honey is a family-run small business that creates cleaning products, especially for homes with furry friends.
Promising reviewing: "I have a dog and two young boys, and I’m constantly cleaning the rug and sofa. I have tried other name-brand cleaning solutions, vinegar solutions, resolve, and nothing works as good as this. All the other ones have a weird smell that almost just mixes with the bad smells and makes it worse. This has a very clean and fresh scent and actually removes the odors!!!! Works well on carpet, rugs, and sofa upholstery. I use it in my upright carpet cleaner and small portable carpet cleaner. The best!" —Jessica B.
Get it from Amazon for $19.50+ (available in two sizes and two scents).
10. Or if you don't have a carpet cleaning machine, a top-selling stain- and odor-eliminating spray to clean up those tough messes you've already used sooo many products on. Not only will this stuff get rid of the stain, but it will get rid of the smell…pet stains can be STANKY, iykyk.
You can also use this on clothes and other surfaces like concrete and hardwood. Just be sure to follow the instructions carefully for non-carpet use.
Rocco & Roxie is a family-owned small business named after the Magleby family's pets Rocco, a Labradoodle, and Roxie, a former shelter tabby cat. They make a variety of pet supplies, including cleaners, treats, grooming tools, accessories, and toys.
Promising review: "I have six elderly cats, and a few of them oftentimes leave smelly pee puddles to register their disdain at whatever cats get 'peed off' about. It's not a litter box problem and, although I've caught one or two of them doing it, I can't blame them all. This product works great on fresh messes as well as dried ones. After blotting up fresh pee, I saturate the area with Rocco & Roxie's odor remover and let dry. For dried stinky stuff, I just saturate the area and let it dry. It has a pleasant odor and completely eliminates the ammonia odor. Believe me, I've tried all kinds of products, and this one works the best. I buy gallons now just to have on hand. It's better than smelling that awful pee!" —mona mia
Get it from Amazon for $19.97.

11. A create-your-own countertop kit that'll change them up and make them *look* like granite instead of spending a small fortune and far too much time actually replacing them.
Promising review: "I used this product to transform my guest bathroom and it came out amazing. It is so easy to use and the step-by-step instructions are easy to follow. Now I am going to do my kitchen countertops. This product is amazing!!!" —Melissa
Get it from Amazon for $99.95 (available in additional colors here).
12. A stackable cutlery organizer with a unique design to create extra space, even in those small drawers you never know what to do with.
One tray fits up to 24 pieces of cutlery.
Promising review: "THE BEST silverware storage organizer compartments I’ve EVER had in my entire life! We have a large family and therefore have the need for a lot of silverware. Unfortunately we have a small, shallow, and narrow drawer in our house and it was always full! Constantly disorganized before, and now amazingly organized. The only reason I would hesitate would be if your drawer is not adequately deep, but from reading reviews people said if they had 3.5 inches of depth it would be just fine which is exactly what I have and there’s adequate drawer depth for me. I measured my skinny drawer and realized I still had space for two units and took the plunge and am so glad I did! Silverware goes quickly from the dishwasher straight into the drawer and you don’t have to stack perfectly to put a lot in!!! ADD IT TO YOUR CART NOW, you’ll be glad you did if you have the same problem as we did!" —oceantiff
Get it from Amazon for $10.52.
13. Some reusable pads that you can just attach to the Swiffer mop you already have so you don't have to feel bad going through like six pads every time you clean your floors.
Promising review: "I love my Swiffer mop, and with two dogs I need to use it every day on the kitchen floor. I was bothered by the wastefulness of disposable swifter pads and these pads have solved that. The microfiber ridges are perfect for deep cleaning — and I simply toss them in the washing machine when they're dirty. No more expensive disposable pads for me!" —ann collins
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $11.49.
14. An eco-friendly oven scrub designed to help restore your oven to first-bought freshness. The plant-based ingredients are strong enough to give your oven a deep clean without any toxic fumes.
Everneat is a Fairfield, Connecticut-based all-natural cleaning small business from Claudia and Angelo Zimmermann. Their oven cleaner comes with a professional-grade metallic scrubber you can use to scrub your appliance before wiping it down with a microfiber cloth.
Promising review: "I was skeptical because I had tried so many products to clean the glass on my oven doors with no luck. The auto-clean cycle just baked it on the glass. THIS STUFF IS AMAZING! It took me about 15 minutes to get the glass on both my oven doors clean. Very minimal scrubbing effort required. I will be telling all of my friends." —Teresa Casner
Get it from Everneat on Etsy for $19.99 (available in three scents).
15. An air purifier with an air quality indicator to help make sure you're breathing cleaner air. It works to filter out most bacteria, allergens, dust, odors, smoke, pet dander, and more!
Get it from our Goodful shop for $149.99 (originally $299.99).
16. Dresser drawer organizers since drawers are truly known for turning into absolute horror-filled black holes when you desperately need to find that one matching sock. These dividers will turn your drawers into a dream with sections for bras, socks, and underwear.
Each set comes with four bins: a six-cell (for scarves, hankies, and ties), an eight-cell (for undies), a seven-cell (for bras), and a 24-cell (for socks). They're also collapsible and fold flat if you need to store them away!
Promising review: "No matter how neatly I fold my bras and underwear, they always seem to become a big jumble in the drawer. These organizers are perfect for keeping everything in place, and you won't forget about those items you own that end up buried at the back." —M. Hanson
Get the set of four from Amazon for $11.87 (available in seven colors).
17. Or! An attractive electrical cord box that will finally hide all those hideous cords you have plugged in. IDK about you, but I personally designed my home to never see a loose cord hanging around again…something about them all tangled up or dangling from a mounted TV just sends shivers down my spine.
Promising review: "Suffice to say, the tangle of cords under my desk was not only unattractive, it was causing my electronics to sometimes disconnect. When vacuuming, the on/off switch on the power strip would sometimes get pushed, and I'd have to reboot my internet. Or my laptop charger would come out, and I wouldn't discover it until the battery drained. These little boxes are the perfect size. They fit the power strip and multiple cords — even bulky ones. And they look great!" —Kristin Alexander
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $32.99 (available in two colors).
18. Howard Products wood polisher made with beeswax to help bring back the shiny finish (that you haven't seen in years) to any wood surface — floors, tables, legs…you name it!
Promising review: "Used this to attempt to clean up my 45-year-old solid wood couch that I inherited and reupholstered. Got the water stains off after one application! Perfect!" —Stacy A. Berkin
Get it from Amazon for $8.73.
19. The Pink Stuff all-purpose paste and spray because this slightly abrasive paste and cleaning spray are literally amazing and can clean all the dirt and grime off any surface that you couldn't get rid of with any other products (without extra elbow grease)!
Promising review: "WOW!!!! This stuff is amazing. I literally just have to spray it, let it sit for a few minutes, come back, and depending on what I’m using it for, I either wipe it and it comes right off, or I just use a scrubbing pad and it comes off. There’s nothing out there that is anywhere in comparison to this product!!!! This stuff is the absolute best. I highly recommend purchasing this. I can tell you that half of my cleaning products are now going to be thrown out because all I need is The Pink Stuff. Whoever invented this stuff is an absolute genius; if you’re a clean freak like me, this really is the way to go. Also, it doesn’t have that nasty chemical smell; it smells great. Just buy it; you won’t regret it." —Twin33
Get the cleaning bundle from Amazon for $16.38.
20. A set of bedsheet holders designed to prevent you from having to fully remake the bed every time you wake up because at least one corner of your sheet popped off.
Each pack comes with four bands, which can stretch from 12 to 18 inches and hold adequate tension.
Promising review: "Say goodbye to rearranging your fitted sheet every morning! My boyfriend sleeps like he’s rolling down a hill, so every morning I would wake up to the scratchy feel of my mattress cover because my soft silk fitted sheet was all over the place. Thanks to these bed bands, our sheets stay put no matter what. The only way for your fitted sheet to come off is if you manually remove these first. I wish I would have bought this so much sooner." —Khalysee
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in two versions, three colors, and four pack sizes).
21. Some fridge organization labels to upgrade your organization to something worthy of a magazine. Each and every item will have its own home so you don't have to fumble around wondering where you put the dang soy sauce.
Organise Life is a small business in Australia that focuses on pantry and home labels.
Promising review: "My fridge looks so organized. The words are clear and easy to read, and they look fantastic." —Etsy Customer
Get it from Organise Life on Etsy for $1.33+ (available in small, medium, and large with multiple font color and style options).
22. Wet & Forget shower cleaner that doesn't require scrubbing. 😩🙌🏼 Just spray it on and leave it while you go clean the rest of your house. When you wipe it away (8–12 hours later), you will be *shocked* by the results.
Promising review: "Okay I just wanna say that I am OBSESSED with this cleaner. I was pregnant and not wanting to scrub my shower and bath and let me tell you...this stuff is magic! I spray it and let it sit and it removes dirt, soap scum, discoloration, EVERYTHING, I never have to scrub. This is my second time buying it because after it was out I had to get more; it literally makes chores fine and easy. Lifesaver!!!! It even cleans off old pee stains the boys in my house leave under the toilet seat. I will ALWAYS have Wet & Forget in my house! LOVE IT AND YOU NEED TO GET IT." —Miranda
Get it from Amazon for $20.98+ (available in two scents, two quantities, and a two-pack).
23. A shirt folder to transform your closet or drawers from a chaotic mess into something worthy of being in a store. This foolproof method lets you easily create crisp folds that will make laundry day a breeze.
Promising review: "My first reaction was 'Why did I buy this?' because when I opened the box I wasn't too convinced by the way it looked. Then I gave it a try with a couple of shirts I had just washed, and next thing you know I simply had to do my entire drawer! Everything folds so pretty, neatly, and easily. I still couldn't believe it, so I ended up organizing our bedsheets and towels. I am amazed at how much of a game changer this is. It's a must-try! I am in love with how beautiful it leaves my clothes." —Jesus Antonio Vedia
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in five colors).
24. An oven liner that'll protect the bottom of the oven — when it gets messy it can just be thrown in the dishwasher.
Ovens aren't the only place these work. Easily cut them down to size and try them out with your stove top, air fryer, microwave, grill or as a pan liner! Be sure to place it on the bottom rack not the bottom of the oven to ensure proper airflow.
Promising review: "These liners are great to catch drippings in your oven, whether you’re making pies or cooking a frozen pizza. And you can keep them in for a while before you have to replace them. Mine is a convection oven so instead of putting it on the bottom of the oven I need to put it on the last rack but it still works great. Get them! You’ll save a lot of time cleaning gunk out of your oven." —Wolfsunn
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in two variations).
25. A refillable paint pen so you can touch up those pesky scratches and chips all over your walls without having to worry about lugging the entire paint can around the house with you. All you have to do is fill the brush with your paint, twist to dispense, and get to work on your no-mess painting.
Promising review: "These are fantastic!!! They make small fixes a breeze, especially when two paint colors butt up next to each other at a corner. The brush fibers are great are great and smoothly put the paint in the exact spot. I had even tried buying artists brushes for touchups in the past but they never worked well and I no longer need to pull out the whole can to do one tiny touch up. I have these locked and loaded with every paint color in my house and am ready to go." —AAG338
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $15.99+ (also available in five-pack).
26. A jetted tub cleaner because idk if you've heard, but those jets can get DISGUSTING...like, never-use-a-shared-tub disgusting. But unfortunately, that gunk doesn't stay only in the hotel tubs; it can build up in your tub at home. Clean out those jets, and stop being afraid of using your tub to its full potential.
Oh Yuk is a small, family-owned business based in Minnesota that specializes in PhD chemist-formulated cleaning products for home appliances, from dishwashers and washing machines to hot tubs and jetted bathtubs.
Promising review: "We bought a house with a jetted tub. I had anxiety about using the tub because I didn’t know what kind of germs and funk were in the jets. I ordered Oh Yuk before we even closed escrow. And when escrow did close, I got my keys and immediately used Oh Yuk in the tub. The junk that came out was soo gross! I ran it four times and nownthe tub jets are spotless. It was great being able to take a bath and not worry about someone else’s dirt and funk in my bath water. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!" —Niki D.
Get it from Amazon for $17.84.
27. A baseboard cleaner so you don't have to get on your hands and knees and crawl all over your house in order to clean those pesky baseboards. Now you can just quickly swipe over them, making a horribly time-consuming chore much more manageable.
Promising review: "We have A LOT of white woodwork in our 3,300 sq. ft house...baseboards, crown molding, columns, elaborate trim around windows. The stuff is everywhere! And it was all dusty! I did not relish the idea of getting down on my hands & arthritic knees to clean all this woodwork. Enter the Baseboard Buddy! It works wonderfully on all the woodwork...not just the baseboards. I stopped periodically to clean the pad with a damp rag and then removed and washed the pad in hot soapy water when I was done. I had no problems with the cleaning head rotating unless I moved it. The long pole made it easy to clean at the top of tall windows. My baseboards and other woodwork looks like new again. Highly recommended!" —Lily of the valley
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
28. A double layer litter-trapping mat because you still haven't figured out how to toilet train your cats and you're tired of feeling like you are walking on a beach when you go past their box.
This mat is water-resistant and has a unique design to not only trap the litter, but keep it between the two layers so you can easily dump it back into the box instead of wasting it.
Promising review: "I have purchased A LOT of mats that are supposed to help with litter control and have had very little success with finding anything worth using long term. Until now!! I bought two of these mats….one for under the litter box and one for outside in front of the box as the cats jump out and go on their way. So far these mats have caught 99% of the litter! They are very sturdy, yet soft. Before I bought these, I was constantly sweeping litter at the doorway and vacuuming the pieces that somehow made it to the rug. Not anymore!!! These mats catch nearly all litter. They are easy to clean. And very easy to pick up and dump. This will now be my forever go-to mat. And if you don’t have cats and just need something easy to clean to catch outside dirt and such, get this!! Worth every penny!!!" —HB
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in two sizes, two-packs, and three colors).
29. A wall-mounted toothbrush station so you can keep all the toothbrushes and toothpaste in one place instead of having them scattered all over your counter. Eliminating the mess of rogue globs of toothpaste and lids not screwed on is just an additional perk.
The two toothpaste dispensers use vacuum tech to get every last drop out of the tube.
Promising review: "I love this item! I saw it originally on TikTok and thought it would be perfect for our bathroom! We have one bathroom upstairs and five people who use it. This cleared up so much counter space for us! There are ventilation holes where the cups go to help make sure they dry properly. The toothpaste dispenser has really been working to get every last drop out of the tube. Would definitely recommend for a family or kids bathroom. There is also a little storage compartment behind the toothpaste that is great for extra brushes, cotton swabs, or flossers." —Sariyah J
Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in three colors).
30. A snaking tool that will make it ~incredibly~ obvious why your tub is taking forever to drain. Fair warning: if this is the first time you're even attempting to unclog your drain, prepared to be disgusted (and maybe even kinda impressed?).
Promising review: "Been using these things for YEARS!!! I have a full head of blonde, curly, THICK hair that somehow clogs up the drain despite me putting it on the wall. IT GETS IT ALL OUT! My husband is SO happy!! When I presented him this product and showed him how it is done, he was awe-struck! I’ve always believed in this product and it has never failed me!" —Ash-L

31. A storage lid organizer so you can say goodbye to the days of putting away your leftovers in a container only to realize you can't find the lid and have to swap to a new one.
YouCopia is a woman-owned small biz that makes ingenious home and kitchen storage solutions.
The dividers are adjustable so you can customize your set depending on what size containers you have!
Promising review: "I love, love, love this storage container. Sounds silly, but it changed my life. No longer do I have storage container Jenga! No more stuff falling out of the cabinet every time I open the cupboard. Now I can stack my lids in the organizer and my storage containers fit nicely on the shelf, and I have a lot of storage containers. I would definitely buy this again and again. Great product." —Laura
Get it from Amazon for $17.80+ (available in four versions).
32. A washable blinds cleaner that has three blades making it easy to clean two blinds (top and bottom!) at once. That means you will cut your blind cleaning time IN HALF! What's better than a nifty cleaning product? A nifty cleaning product that saves you time. Once you've finished cleaning, just pull off the cloth, throw it in the washer, and it'll be ready for the next time you have a cleaning frenzy.
Promising review: "These are great to get a thorough cleaning faster. It does take a bit to get through them all. Working quickly, It was two and a half or three minutes for the set and would be longer for the double wide window blinds, so about 30 minutes to do my full house. But being able to do both sides at once is a big time-saver. After doing a set myself, I gave it to the house cleaner, and he thought it was fantastic and wanted the link to buy it himself. It is sturdy. The cloths are easy to remove and put on again for cleaning in the washing machine, and they don't come off during use or anything, despite not having anything that holds them in place." —lygophilia
Get it from Amazon for $6.99 (available in two color combinations).
33. A Rubbermaid scrubber because your old toothbrush that you use to clean just isn't cutting it anymore. This electric power scrubber is small but mighty. Stop breaking a sweat every time you find a new gross stain, and instead, break out this scrubber that will do all the heavy lifting.
I was recently influenced to purchase one of these, and I can tell you it genuinely works. I wasn't really expecting it to do much, but when I used it in my shower, I could see the water stains getting lifted immediately. The grout cleaner attachment is especially helpful for the awkward corners of my shower that I couldn't seem to reach with any other brushes. It really takes out most of the work and allows you to get a deeper clean without as much elbow grease.
Promising review: "I'm going to be honest, y'all. I suck at housekeeping. Let me just say that this little battery operated scrubber is SO HELPFUL. The other day, I used it to clean my bathroom counter. I knew it had been messy, but I'd had no idea how absolutely filthy it was until I used this tool. This tool got off several years of caked on dust and hair. I was even able to clean under the rim of my sink, and what came out thanks to this brush was near barf-worthy. So not only does this little brush scrub powerfully, but it can get in hard-to-reach crevices, too. Do you have animals? If so, you know that sometimes, they throw up in hard to reach spaces. And sometimes, when we can't reach those spaces at that exact moment, we wait until we can... you know where I'm going with this. We were able to use this brush to scrub those stains off the floor from underneath our bed, which seems to be the cat's favorite place to puke. If you are like me and you're ultra lazy, this tool is for you. Or if you're the opposite of me and love having a really deep clean, this tool is also for you." —Ashley
