Physical touch is great and all but have you ever peed in a *pristine* bathroom?
Promising review: "I have very hard water that leaves hard-water buildup and nasty stains. It’s embarrassing to have guests over because the toilets are so gross! I have tried so many products and cleaning solutions — from natural essential oils to harsh chemicals so strong I was lightheaded for the rest of the day. Well, I tried out this pumice stone after reading about it in a BuzzFeed article, and honestly the hype is real! It does take some elbow grease, but the after picture is from only 20 minutes of scrubbing, light enough that I didn’t break a sweat! The stone does get used up, but I think this one should last me a couple years at least. So if you have embarrassing toilets, try this!" —Stephanie Ray

Promising review: "You guys. I’m embarrassed to even show you this. The grout around our tub was DISGUSTING. It was never caulked right and it got gross very quickly. I would scrub. The cleaning lady would scrub. It would get worse. Well, I came across this in a BuzzFeed list, and this stuff made me curious. I don’t know why it doesn’t have 10,000 good reviews. Seriously. All I did was squeeze it on and walk away. I let it sit overnight. Check this out. Buy it. Like today." —KarynB

Promising review: "This is so much easier than using the toothbrush when trying to really scrub grout or around the sink, etc. This little thing is pretty powerful; I was really surprised at how fast it rotates! This is one of the most helpful cleaning tools I have ever owned. A real time- and energy-saver!" —Sissy39

Promising review: "This is hands-down the only product that has ever perfectly cleaned my stainless steel appliances. It deserves 10 stars because nothing else comes close to removing streaks and toddler finger prints as easily and completely as this. I have tried for years to get my appliances to look like new. Everyone who has stainless should own this." —Danielle

Promising review: "I am a NEAT FREAK! I love to clean. I literally clean my house daily. It can’t be clean enough. I have a two-story, three-bedroom three-bathroom house with two dogs. This vacuum cleans all of it! This gadget is legit like a little human vacuuming your floors, but super throughly. It goes over all my rugs and hardwood floors, and it goes in the bathrooms and closets and under all the furniture. Once in awhile it gets caught in the wires underneath my TV but most of the time it is able to get itself out of it. It’s quiet. My dogs barely even notice it. This is worth every penny! It’s easy to set up, and easy to clean after each use. It does all the hard work for you. Since I’ve had mine, I’ve literally gotten five friends to buy one and they all love it too." —Shannon

Promising review: "I ordered this set to continue on the road to an organized pantry. There are enough containers and enough variety of sizes to make me happy. I have stored pastas and noodles, dried beans, rice, sugar, instant mashed potatoes, crackers, etc. When I open a box of something, I put whatever is unused into one of the containers and feel very secure that the contents will be fresh and protected from any possible insect problem." —R M

Promising review: "Just pop it in and run about one reservoir of water through the system. It is blue but unclogs and does a great job of cleaning. When I used the white vinegar method I'd have to rinse it quite a few times to get rid of the vinegar taste in the water. I definitely recommend this to others. I believe it works in all systems that use the K-Cup." —Brandi

Promising review: "I could not get my flatware to come out clean from the dishwasher and I wondered if it was the hard water. I was using up to three soap blocks in each load with only partial improvement. I used this the first time and voilà! Perfectly clean flatware for the first time. I LOVE this!" —Susan A

Promising review: "This is so amazing and cleans up any keyboard! This is a must-have if you use a mechanical keyboard. This product cleans way beyond my expectations! I've used it on multiple keyboards, car vents, and small cracks/joints in my car interior. I was paranoid buying this container as I wasn't sure how long it would last but I'm still on my first container of this so it's WELL worth the money." —jgutz20

Promising review: "These are so helpful if your fridge is cluttered. I bought these for my mom who is an extremely cluttered person. I love her to death, but she is not an organized person. Her fridge used to look wild. There would be food piled on top of food, and small jars and containers EVERYWHERE. I bought her these to help her organize everything. Now she can see what she has and everything has a place. Thank you for making something like this to help those that are so cluttered." —MioRioZio

Promising review: "I have owned multilevel pan storage rack in the past, however this is by far the most solid and well made one I have ever seen. Most are just wire, hardly thicker than a coat hanger but this one is over a quarter-inch of solid steel with an enameled coating to protect your pans. The spacing between each level is wider than average to accommodate almost any frying pan I've seen. And unlike any similar product I've seen it can be fastened down to the cabinet bottom so the whole thing doesn't move or tip over when you remove a pan. And the fasteners are included." —PhotoGraphics

Promising review: "I love this door organizer!!! I used Command strip hooks (the ones with the metal hook but plastic back) to keep the organizer extra stable. I used the bottom shelf to store my plastic wrap, foil, wax paper, and more, so if you're not needing storage for these, you should be able to use all the shelves. This organizer has really helped alleviate my pantry clutter! I highly recommend this item!!!" —Super Momx2

Promising review: "My wife and I both like to keep the kitchen counter clean and clutter-free. Unfortunately, you need a convenient spot for those extra 'crucial' items that you frequently use like a scrubber, drain plug, hand soap, etc. One night she handed me her phone and told me she bought this item for our counter. I thought it would be a flimsy piece of crap. But it’s not flimsy. More like pliable and sturdy. It works great, blends in with the counter, and cleans up nice. My wife was right...again." —AbiNormal

Promising review: "We just moved from a two-bed to a one-bed and are trying to squeeze everything in. Anxiety is at a full-time high with all the clutter but this product helped us organize our closet while freeing up hanging space! No more random hangers here, there, and everywhere, tangled up and cluttering a room. It was SO simple to assemble. Took me maybe five minutes (tops)." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "WOW were we impressed! On two occasions over the last three months, our sweet dog ate grass outside and then proceeded to vomit in two different locations on relatively new carpet. We cleaned the best we could but two dark round spots remained. We tried the standard carpet sprays to no avail (actually seemed to make them worst). The spots were embarrassing to see, but decided to wait until holiday traffic was over before scheduling full carpet clean. As soon as these arrived, we put them on spots (yes, I know you are supposed to test), stomped on them and set the timer. Lifted the pads in 30 minutes and the whole stains had transferred to the pads, carpet looked clean as can be. Highly recommend for any dog owner with a dog who isn't trained to vomit outside." —Eileen Marie

Promising review: "Bought these storage bags two weeks ago to pack my winter clothes for summer, and they did the job perfectly. They are large and sturdy. I like its five-hook design. I can store five women's jackets or four big men's jackets in ONE bag. The long bags also fit my dresses. The biggest reason I bought these bags is that I do not need to fold my seasonal clothes; just hang, zip, vacuum, done! Super convenient. Extremely happy with this space bags. I will definitely order more!" —Jia Yan

Promising review: "These are amazing!!! They work! And no stains!!! I was concerned that since I don’t use Dawn or a big name brand dish soap, my earth-friendly soap might not cut the grease as well, but that was not the case! My bacon sponge is perfectly clean and spotless! I love it! So glad I ordered two! I couldn’t be more pleased!!!" —cattealover

Promising review: "My first reaction was 'Why did I buy this?' Then I gave it a try with a couple shirts I had just washed, and next thing you know I simply had to do my entire drawer! Everything folds so pretty, neat and easy. 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. A must-try! I'm in love with how beautiful it left my clothes." —Jesus Antonio Vedia

Promising review: "This is a great little set! The various sized sticky notes come in a neatly bound hardcover book that fits perfectly in the pocket of my daily planner. The pens are equally good, especially for the price. If you’re like me and perhaps a little particular when it comes to organization and color coding, don’t hesitate to purchase these. The set of 12 vibrantly colored pens fit nicely inside an empty extra sleeve pocket in my A5 planner. Because they’re so compact, I did have a little trouble getting the caps off at first (weak hands), but with use, it’s much easier." —Breezy McD

Promising review: "Fits perfectly in corner of my kitchen. Holds all my small and not-so-small appliances that were cluttering my counter space. I like the top shelf and the hooks. I’m using the hooks for potholders and the top shelf for a few seasonal knickknacks that I’ll switch out. I purchased additional hooks that I hang on the side and use for my keys. I also bought some shelf liner, which makes it easy to remove and replace the appliances without them getting snagged on the open shelves. It went together fairly easy. It’s heavy and sturdy. Lots of space on this basic kitchen organizer and I consider it an excellent purchase!" —JoLi

It comes with a pencil cup holder, a letter sorter, a letter tray, a hanging file organizer, and a sticky note holder.
Promising review: "I got tired of stacking papers and folders on top of a horizontal tray on my desk. The basket can hold file folders with tabs, which makes important papers easy to organize and find. No more piles upon piles. The tray is for my to-do items. I find myself leaving work on time and not staying late to clean up my desk. I have embellished some of the items with fake rhinestones and have received many compliments on the ensemble." —Kathy

Promising review: "The design is sleek and minimalist. I'm prone to clutter, so this shelf gives me a place to put things intentionally so that I don't get overwhelmed in my workspace. I also like that it only took about 10 minutes to fully assemble. If you've ever made your own IKEA furniture before, no need to fear; you'll do fine." —Mary Anne Layus

Promising review: "Easy to build after you figure out which way the hooks go. Pay attention to the direction of the hooks on the picture; then it'll be easy and quick to assemble. I use it on carpet under my bed and my shoes are more organized. I like this way better than the cloth material shoe rack." —Amazon Customer
