    20 Fast-Acting Products You Probably Need If You Can Think Of A Million Things You'd Rather Do Than Clean Your Home

    Scrub-a-dub-dub, I would really like to use the tub so can you please clean it? It'll only take a minute, I promise.

    1. An eco-friendly hard water stain-remover because it'll help you wipe away soap scum and residue in your shower in half the time it normally takes you to clean.

    2. A rust-remover spray so you no longer avoid looking at your shower because of embarrassing stains. This cleanser will obliterate those stains in the blink of an eye.

    3. A pack of bottle-cleaning tablets for anyone whose devotion to caffeine doesn't outweigh their laziness. It's OK — these bad boys will do all the heavy lifting for you so your beloved thermos is crystal clean quicker than it took you to make those stains.

    4. A stainless steel cleaner and polish that'll help you conquer the very time-consuming task of wiping down all the appliances in your kitchen. Reviewers say this stuff is practically a miracle, succeeding at removing fingerprints from their stainless steel where other products failed.

    5. Or a bottle of Bar Keepers Friend soft cleanser if you need a fast-acting, heavy-hitting cleaner. It'll restore all your pots and pans with burned bottoms in mere minutes.

    6. A pack of dishwasher cleaning tablets because they clean as your machine runs — no need to spend your precious free time cleaning it by hand.

    7. A cast-iron scrubber, which is just a piece of chainmail, for lifting leftover food grit — not the pan's seasoning. This'll save you a heck of a lot of time now that you're not trying to scrub away stubborn stains with a fragile sponge.

    8. A microwave steam cleaner to melt away the baked-on crud that's clinging to the sides in less than 60 seconds — seriously!

    9. A pack of foaming garbage disposal cleaners that'll deodorize your sink ASAP, because if you have to smell last week's rotting veggie peels for one more minute you just might scream.

    10. A beeswax wood polisher so you can revive your dinged and dented cabinets and table quick as a flash. Plus, this method is a heck of a lot cheaper than actually replacing the wood, and using this polish on a regular basis can actually help keep the wood hydrated so it lasts longer.

    11. A two-in-one Hoover carpet cleaner if you need your vacuum to do the hard work — and do it fast! — of sucking up dirt, dust, and pet hair *and* steaming your carpets. It's time to reclaim your weekends instead of spending the whole day vacuuming, then steaming, then waiting for everything to dry.

    12. The Drain Millipede, a drain-clearing sink snake for unclogging your pipes in a shorter time than it would've taken your previously clogged pipes to drain.

    13. A bottle of Goo Gone that'll make you understand why your parents always had a bottle on hand. All it takes is a few wipes and you can see questionable stains and sticky residue vanish right before your eyes.

    14. A power scrubber so you can actually be impressed for once. It's basically an electric toothbrush, but for cleaning tile grout and hard-to-reach nooks and crannies. This is gonna save you so much time and effort.

    15. A blind cleaner brush if you don't have the time or energy to clean each blind individually. Work smarter, not harder!

    16. An odour-eliminating spray for erasing stains and odours fast. No need to replace that expensive rug that Mittens insisted on peeing on!

    17. A broom for pet hair to loosen the fur trapped in your carpet effectively without having to spend time setting up your vacuum. The rubber head attracts stray hairs and pulls them out of carpet and rugs, almost like magic. There's also a built-in squeegee for wiping up liquids or for cleaning glass. Plus, the handle extends so it can reach practically any mess.

    18. A red wine stain-remover spray so you can hastily remove any vino you've spilled in those few moments of clarity you have when you're drunk and realized you've made a big mistake. It even works on old stains!

    19. A grout paint pen for covering up years of dirt and grime that's fallen into the cracks. All you need is a few minutes and a knack for colouring inside the lines.

    20. A pack of air purifying bags if you're tired of cleaning, and cleaning, and cleaning some more but noticing that funky odours just aren't going away. These'll absorb any stench practically overnight. C'mon, getting these just makes ~scents~.
