    19 Cleaning Products To Take Your Home From Looking Good To Looking Great

    Dirt, grime, and mysterious stains might be plaguing your home, but now it's time to fight back.

    1. A robot vacuum that cleans messes and random crumbs so you can keep your floors looking spotless. It's perfect for rugs, hardwood, tile, and stone floors. As long as this little machine is on the move, you'll forget what it was like having a dirty floor.

    Promising review: "Wow... worth the money!!!! Thanks to my mom, ever since I got my Eufy vacuum robot, I was in LOVE!!!! It did an amazing job keeping the house clean. Honestly, I was so impressed with the vacuum. You would think my house was clean, but when I used the vacuum on the house, it picked up so much dirt and junk, it was incredible. What was so astounding about Eufy was it was so quiet, and yet, the suctioning power was impressive." —YKR

    Get it from Amazon for $149.99 (available in two colors).

    2. A Tineco lightweight cordless vacuum featuring some serious suction power to remove that stubborn strand of hair you keep having to re-vacuum. One charge equals 70 minutes of use. The best part is that you can turn it into a handheld vac and use it to clean your car or your furniture.

    Promising review: "I am blown away with just how good the Tineco cordless vacuum cleaner is! I have had a short-haired kitten inside my house for six months, and the amount of cat hair and dust and dirt that I have picked up with the cordless vacuum is astonishing." —kjnlor

    Get it from Amazon for $198+ (available in two styles).

    3. An electric pressure washer because the outside of your home is covered in dirt, and it's looking kinda drab. Revive your walls, shutters, front steps, and more with high-powered water pressure.

    This pressure washer has a powerful 1800-watt motor, five quick-connect spray tips, a 20-foot hose, and a 40.6 fluid ounce detergent tank.

    Promising review: "This product did everything as promised. I had used a relative's power cleaner on the siding on my vacation mobile home. There was no setting, and the pressure was too much, and it scored the aluminum siding. With this product, you have all of the separate tips to regulate the pressure of the spray. The tip for aluminum siding worked very well on the siding for my home. It was truly a great experience. I put on the tip for aluminum siding to rinse it and held the spray nozzle very close to the siding, and all of the algae was removed, and my siding looked like new (at 18 years old!). I would definitely recommend this product, which is so reasonably priced for a power washer." —John K

    Get it from Amazon for $158.90+ (available in five styles).

    4. A Bissell multipurpose carpet and upholstery cleaner designed to deep clean and effortlessly remove stains from your carpets, rugs, and furniture. Maybe your carpet looks a hot mess and you want to replace it, but before you do, give this genius invention a try.

    Each cleaner comes with a trial size of Bissell's Spot & Stain Formula, which is also available on Amazon for $12.99

    Promising review: "Yep! TikTok made me buy it, and I loved it. Looked for it online, and on Walmart, they were about $150 for some reason?? Got it here, and I am LOVING IT. Things definitely look cleaner. Spots on my carpet are gone, and my carseats look brand new for the first time since I bought it! Directions are easy. Just a heads up, MAKE SURE TO USE WARM WATER. If you leave water in it and it gets cold, it's not as effective, so just follow instructions, and it should be wonderful!" —Carlos 

    Get it from Amazon for $119.99+

    5. A fume-free oven cleaner that cleans all of your baking accidents that left their mark in your oven. Whether you're deep cleaning or spot cleaning, just spray over the mess, wait a few seconds, and wipe. Erase any evidence of baking mishaps, and keep those secrets to yourself.

    Promising review: "I saw this on a TikTok. I have used Easy Off in the past but hated the smell. This is so much better, and let me tell you, I am super sensitive to smells. Works great in the oven, and also, as I saw on the video, works great in shower stalls and tubs!" Amy L Viau

    Get it from Amazon for $11.23.

    6. Or, a natural and eco-friendly oven scrubbing cleaner, in case aerosol sprays aren't a good fit for your household. It might require a little more elbow grease to clean, but reviewers say it's totally worth it.

    This oven scrub is made out of 100% plant and mineral-derived ingredients. To clean your oven, apply the scrub over the oven surface including the interior glass, scrub with a metallic or scouring sponge, then use a damp microfiber cloth to wipe the surface.

    Everneat is a small business based in Fairfield, Connecticut that specializes in natural cleaning products and microfiber cloths.

    Promising review: "This is the first time in my 50+ years that I have actually enjoyed cleaning my oven. And no, I am not joking! This product is effective, easy to work with, smells amazing, AND I only used a tiny amount of product!!! I don't think I could imagine a way to improve this product. Highly, highly recommend it!!! Well worth any wait." —Diane Coury

    Get it from Everneat on Etsy for $19.99+ (available in plastic or glass jars and in two scents).

    7. A no-scrub weekly shower cleaner you'll literally "set and forget" to keep it clean. Spray your shower from top to bottom, wait for 8-12 hours, and rinse. Not only will your shower stay clean for a week, it will also smell like vanilla. No more elbow grease, and no more strong chemical smells for you.

    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 'til 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 $18.61.

    8. A jar of The Pink Stuff, because you need something that pretty much works on everything. I'm sure you're soooo over stains on the wall, grime, soap scum, and overall filth. If I'm right, then you definitely needed this in your house, like, yesterday.

    A lot of people compare it to the Magic Eraser in paste form, so even your weirdest, most stubborn stains will meet their match.

    Promising review: "I used this product for my stove because it's the one thing I dislike cleaning. I have used multiple degreaser sprays, and they all are so toxic and don't work for me. The Magic Eraser was okay, but I used several at a time, and I had to scrub so hard. But this product, oh my goodness, legit a miracle. It doesn't have any type of smell. I put the paste on a cloth, clean the area, then wipe it off with a damp cloth, and voilà, magic!" —May

    Get it from Amazon for $5.97+ (available in three quantities).

    9. A fast-acting ChomChom pet hair remover roller that is loved dearly by pet owners. It's like a sticky lint roller that is designed to trap hair inside of the barrel, allowing you to easily discard it without making a mess. This is a great way to keep your rugs and furniture looking presentable.

    Promising review: "I have a golden retriever, and the shedding is out of control. My fabric sofa is constantly covered in hair, and I finally decided to try this after reading an article about popular TikTok products. The reviews do not lie; this thing works magic!! I wish I had taken a before and after picture because the difference is noticeable. I watched the video tutorial before I tried it to ensure I was using it properly, and everything he says is true. You do really have to put your arm to work with vigorous back and forth movement! However, I find it's a great arm workout, and it works wonders." —Joanne Ertel

    Get it from Amazon for $28.95

    10. A pack of dishwasher cleaning tablets formulated to remove limescale and mineral buildup in your dishwasher. These tablets also clean your dishwasher's tub, racks, pump and valve, drain, and recirculation hoses. After all, your dishes can't truly be clean if your dishwasher isn't clean.

    Just pop them into the tray where you'd normally put detergent (or on the bottom of your dishwasher if you're washing dishes at the same time), and run as usual!

    Promising reviews: "This was simple to use, smelled good, and I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the dishwasher after the recommended cleaning cycle. This product actually did what it advertises that it will do! Great results, fairly economical — and by the way — it works!" —Old Southern Charm

    "Just get them. Changed the way my 20-year-old dishwasher works. Much cleaner dishes and the interior is like new. First time you use it, run it empty with just the cleaner. I didn't realize how much mold and ickiness it got out of my machine." —drpicard

    Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $8.99.

    11. A bottle of Folex Instant Carpet Stain Remover, a water-based cleaning spray that will protect your carpets from all types of stains. Even that super old stain that has made itself at home in your carpets doesn't stand a chance against this stain-removing miracle.

    Check out this TikTok of the Folex Carpet Spot Remover to see it in action! 

    Promising review: “There are products that you love and buy again. And then, there are products that you love and can’t live without. And then, above that, there are a few select products that you revere and hold with the highest honor. Folex 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-sized jug in your arsenal of cleaning supplies.” —Carobnty

    Get it from Amazon for $6.65+ (available in two sizes and in multi-packs).

    12. An Angry Mama microwave cleaner if you're eternally disgusted with how your microwave looks, and asking yourself "when did this happen?" Luckily you won't have to use too much elbow grease to get your microwave cleaned. Just fill with vinegar and water, set the microwave for seven minutes, and there ya go. Good as new!

    Promising review: "I'm embarrassed to say I hadn't cleaned my microwave in about six months. It's an awful task. I ran Angry Mama one time, wiped down easily, then ran it one more time to get it really clean. Highly recommend using it more often than once every six months for a super fast, super clean microwave!" —Kelsey

    Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in four colors).

    13. A shower door cleaner that will eliminate soap scum and hard water stains, and have your shower door shining bright like a diamond!

    Promising review: "This product works beautifully. I tried a lot of products to remove the hard water from my glass shower. I have to admit the first time I used it with a cloth, it was not very effective. The second time, I used a nonabrasive sponge for glass, and it turned out beautiful just like the first day the glass was installed." —EJP

    Get it from Amazon for $11.65.

    14. Toilet bowl bombs for anyone who enjoys a clean home without having to use harsh chemicals. Just toss one of these fizzy bombs into the toilet, wait 15-30 minutes, do a little scrubbing, then flush!

    Viren Apothecary is a small business in Wisconsin that sells hand-crafted eco-friendly products for a clean and fragrant home

    Promising review: "Literally can’t tell you how worth the wait these toilet bombs are! They smell absolutely incredible but not artificial, and they WORK. I have a new baby and two other kids, and my house is basically a biohazard because I’m short on time and energy. I just plop one of these puppies into the toilet, come back shortly, and scrub, and they glisten. Even my husband, who has never voluntarily cleaned anything in his life, will clean toilets because the fizzers are fun. I’m so excited to try their other products!!" —Teresa C.

    Get them from Viren Apothecary on Etsy for $9+ (available in three packaging options and two scents).

    15. sink cleaner and polish formulated to work on more than just stainless steel sinks, but porcelain, cast iron, and acrylic sinks as well. Tough stains, water spots, and rust don't stand a chance against this cleaner.

    Promising review: "I cannot recommend this enough. When we bought our house we could tell the previous owners had rinsed off paint brushes in the kitchen sink and it left horrible yellow stains. I saw this and decided I couldn't go wrong with the price. It literally took less than five minutes of gentle scrubbing to completely change the look of our sink! The before and after pictures don't even do it full justice. BUY THIS." —jenna

    Get it from Amazon for $11.65+ (available in seven pack varieties).

It got out ALL of the stains and scum that literally no other cleaner could even touch. I wish I could add the before and after! 10/10 would recommend!" —eostrye

    Get it form Humble Suds on Etsy for $14.95+ (available in two packaging options).

    Promising Review: "I’m a mom of an 8 year old baseball player whose team’s pants are, you guessed it, WHITE. I’ve been struggling to get that red dirt stain out of these things for two years. I use a cleaner that gets most of it out but there are always a few stubborn stains left behind that the wash doesn’t get out. But when the Stain Stick arrived yesterday I attacked the stains with it and threw it in the dryer. Behold! The stain is gone! Now my son doesn’t have to stand in the back row for team pictures anymore because of how bad his pants are." —Laurel M.

    Get it from Shady Creek Farm on Etsy for $6.40.

    Promising review: "The stainless steel appliances in our rental were so stained and smudged. Regular cleaners didn't work. I saw this product recommended on TikTok and immediately looked it up on Amazon. The reviews were good, and the price was right, but what won me over was the plant-based ingredient list and lavender scent. I used the product the day it arrived in the mail. Worked like a charm! Easy-to-use spray, microfiber cloth included. So now, my stainless steel appliances look shiny, and my kitchen smells amazing! Highly recommend." —diana
