    35 Cleaning Products That Are So Good, You'll Never Live In Filth Again

    You don't need to be a professional cleaner to make your home sparkle. ✨

    1. A reusable roller dog hair remover because wearing all black is your year-round aesthetic, but your pet (that you love and adore with everything in you) sheds light-colored hair everywhere. This roller will remove hair from your couch, bed, car, and yes, even your wardrobe, effortlessly.

    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 $27.99 (available in three colors). 

    2. A tub of the bestselling Pink Stuff that'll turn those "impossible" stains and messes into something possible to clean with its mildly abrasive formula, so all you need is a microfiber cloth or sponge and a little elbow grease. Seriously, use it on almost everything, including your caked-up oven, burnt-up pan bottoms, scummy shower walls, and even those unfortunate doodles from your little one's artist phase.

    Promising review: "I had tried everything to get the hardware stains off my shower. CLR, metal scrubbing pads, vinegar, and many other things. I thought I'd end up having to replace all the faucets. I saw this in a BuzzFeed article and thought, no way it's THAT good... It's that good. It's better than good. It's wild how good it is. My shower looks better than new. It took rust stains off tile. It took years of hard water scale buildup off in seconds. It is literally a miracle product." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $5.97.

    3. A top-rated power scrubber with over 15,000 5-star ratings because it does all the deep cleaning of your grout, tile, and whatever else for you! Remember when you used to manually scrub hard-to-clean spots with a standard toothbrush? Well, this high-powered, oscillating scrubber will get it done quicker and a thousand times better, delivering the clean of your dreams.

    Natalie Brown / BuzzFeed

    BuzzFeed Shopping editor Natalie Brown put this to the test, and here's what she thought about it: "This thing works small miracles: I cleaned about half of my bathroom's grout to its original sparkling-clean cream color in 40 minutes, and it took honestly no effort at all. I literally sat on the floor, dipped the bristles in a Castile soap dilution (2–3 drops of soap + 1/2 cup of water; but you could use almost any cleaner of your choice), then lazily ran the scrubber back and forth over a 6-inch section of grimy, dark-gray grout — and it only took about 30 seconds for that grout to go from dingy to bright. I started by using the specialty grout brush, but then I decided to try it with the default brush and that seemed to work just as well, IMHO!" Check out her full power scrubber review.

    Get it from Amazon for $22.21. You can also get a special grout-cleaning brush head that can be swapped in for the regular one for $11.46.

    4. Dawn Powerwash bundle for anyone whose stress is mainly caused by the growing stack of dishes in the sink that you keep putting off for "tomorrow." 😩😩😩 Well, it's a new day, and this top-rated dish soap saves you time by eliminating the need for a pre-soak since the spray helps break down grease and food debris in minutes. And then you just wipe the mess away. 🥲

    This bundle includes one spray bottle and three refills.

    Promising review: “The first place I tried this was in my air fryer basket. It gets caked with the grease that comes from the food. The dishwasher doesn't get it clean. I sprayed this on it and within a few minutes, the soap started turning a brownish color. I sprayed a little more and let it sit for an hour. All of the grease came off with a rinse!! Bonus use: I just used it to get resin off of mine and my daughter's hands!! How did I ever live without this??" —A D

    Get it from Amazon for $17.50.

    5. A bottle of Liquid Plumr Pro Strength Hair Clog Eliminator, which has over 9,000 5-star ratings for how effectively it'll clear your stubbornly clogged drain. When they say "eliminate," this gel-based drain cleaner literally melts hair away in three simple steps: pour, let sit, and drain with piping-hot water. And all for under $10! 😭

    BTW, this product is designed specifically for drains clogged with hair! For a different drain cleaner, check out this one!

    Having never read a review of this product, I used it and now I'm furious I didn't do a before and after photo. My shower drain, which had hair from previous tenants, soap scum deep in there, and more grossness from before I moved in five months ago...is now 98% clear and looks like a completely new drain. The hair that is still there is attached to my handy dandy drain cover, so no biggie to get rid of. This was the easiest drain product I've ever used and it didn't require me to even look at the nastiest lurking down there. All I had to do was pour the entire bottle (I poured most of it, but I was skeptical, so I saved some just in case), let it sit for 15 minutes, and then pour hot water down the drain. For this, I boiled water in my tea pot and poured it down the drain and everything is gone! I could cry. This is my new go-to drain product from now on — so if your drain is gross and you want nothing to do with it, definitely grab a bottle of this!

    Promising review: "I wanted to wait awhile before I left a review, you know, just to make sure it worked worked lol. Our drain was super clogged with hair and soap scum! Three women, a golden retriever and a golden doodle! So when I say super clogged, I mean SUPER CLOGGED. No water was draining. I tried to use one of those sticks that you put down the drain to pull hair out and I got very little. I poured the whole jug in the drain hole, a bunch of it just sat in the bottom of the tub because it was just that clogged. After I poured that in, I started a big pot of water on the stove. After about 30 minutes, my water was veryyyy hot, but I didn't let it get to a boil. I took it into the bathroom, and I could tell a little drain action was going on because the stuff wasn't pooled way up into the tub anymore. I poured just a little hot water in and watched. Nothing happened. I finally just poured the whole pot of water in and BAM, the tub took a second and it drained. Honestly, I thought I was at the point of having to call a plumber, so I was shocked. I turned the water on and filled up the tub just to see what happened, and it kept draining perfectly! We're at about a month later and she's still draining like a champ! So, I would recommend this product a million times over, 10/10!" —Ian

    Get it from Amazon for $16.60.

    6. *OR* a drain clearing tool that's designed with a rotating handle and a snake with 4,000 micro hooks. It's thin enough to fit down a drain without moving the cover, so you can get all that hair and grossness clogging up your tub and then ratchet it out in a single pull. Before you call the plumber, see if the problem can be fixed with a simple DIY attempt.

    Promising review: "I don’t write many reviews, but when something blows my mind like this, I have to! Not only did this remove an enormous amount of hair from my drain, it took less than 30 seconds to do so! I didn’t really read the instructions, but it’s pretty straightforward. Stuck it in the drain, cranked the handle, pulled it out. Voila, no more hair! Buy it! You won’t be disappointed." —Linsey Walker

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99.

    7.  A set of drill brush attachments in case getting on your hands and knees and scrubbing until you're spent isn't getting the soap scum off your shower walls. Attach this handy brush head to your drill and watch as it powerfully scrubs and cleans all the grime and gunk away on tons of surfaces, from your shower to your counters...and even your gutter!

    The drill is NOT included. But if you don't have a drill or doubt the power of your current one, here's one you might like.

    Promising review: "These brushes, paired with some liquid glass cooktop cleaner, MIRACULOUSLY cleaned soap scum and limescale deposits from the doors. It took a lot of work but these brushes succeeded where everything else failed. My sister thought the doors were frosted glass, that's how bad the buildup was on them. After a weekend's work (with frequent breaks so I wouldn't burn out my husband's DeWalt cordless drill), the results are amazing." —Mary in Nebraska

    Get it from Amazon for $18.95 (available in five bristle stiffness options).

    8. A laundry stain remover, which immediately starts working on contact with fresh or set-in stains. If you tend to accidentally drop food on yourself, forget your ink pen is open, or you have one or more messy people in your life, this top-rated remover is a must-have.

    Promising review: "This stuff is awesome! It took out a few orange stains that had been on my white shorts forever. I sprayed the spots, left them overnight, and the next morning they were gone! I'm so glad I found this stuff." —Alyssa Maloney

    Get it from Amazon for $7.49+ (available in various multi-packs and refill sizes).

    9. Keurig cleaning cups because you've gotta clean your coffee maker if you want your fave caffeinated beverages to continue tasting as delicious as they should. All you have to do is pop in one of these cleaning pods and let your Keurig do its thing! You'll be super grossed out, but grateful when you see all the gunk coming out of your coffee maker that won't make it into your next cup.

    Promising review: "This is an excellent product that I cannot say enough good things about. I had thrown away my current Keurig machine thinking it was broken. I decided to try to resurrect it using these cleaners, and I am glad I did! One cup took care of years of neglect on my part (lesson learned). Because there was so much cleaning needed, I used two cups, and now the machine works perfectly. So glad I discovered this product and highly recommend. I am thinking a three-month interval to keep the machine in good condition. Thank you so much!" —Susan

    Get a 6-pack from Amazon for $9.95 (also available in a 12-pack).

    10. An EasyWring microfiber spin mop and bucket set if your floors stay grimy because you'll do whatever it takes to avoid a sopping wet mop head. This nifty gadget wrings the mop automatically, which helps speed up drying time so you can thoroughly clean your home without tip-toeing around a wet floor hours later. Plus, the mop head boasts a unique shape to get into all sorts of nooks and crannies, and the microfiber mop head is machine washable!

    Promising review: "I had had it with my broken basic mop and bucket. I tried to just get a dollar store Swiffer to get us by, but that wasn't cutting it at all. With three boys and a dog who makes his rounds on all the furniture and every exposed corner, I had to do something. After seeing a TikTok where a woman demonstrated this mop to clean her walls, and hearing my boss raving about it, I decided to click the Amazon button. Let me tell you, I HATE cleaning, I HATE mopping, but I LOVE for things to be clean. I was able to mop the entire house TWICE (Because it was that dirty. Please don't judge.) within an hour. A few days later I mopped the entire house again within 10 minutes because they weren't quite as dirty. On another positive note, my boys love the spinner and think it’s a toy! So, every time I get the bucket out my 10-year-old and 4-year-old ask to mop the house because they think it’s fun. MAJOR BONUS!" —Molly

    Get it from Amazon for $34.97

    11. A citrus pet odor eliminator to use on *any* surface that your pet might consider a great potty spot, including tile, carpet, non-leather furniture, and more. It's designed to make sure your pet doesn't find their go-to spot after cleaning, and you can keep working on successfully potty training them.

    Promising review: "I used this on our carpet. My daughter's cat started peeing in the corner. I paid a lot of money to have a company come out and use an enzyme cleaner on just the corner. It did not take the order away!! I used this cleaner, and IT WORKED!! I can’t believe it, but the cat pee smell is completely gone! I even got down on my hands and knees to smell the carpet…this stuff is amazing!!!!" —Lori 

    Get it from Amazon for $19.97

    12. And don't forget a UV black-light flashlight so you can find out exactly where your pet has been marking their territory or having accidents, rather than constantly thinking you smell pee without knowing where it actually is... 😭

    Promising reviews: "I should have had this years ago. It is a flashlight so it does not clean. I did not even know that the male dog had done a sprinkle in the living room. This flashlight lit it right up! You will be able to see the pet stains immediately. Absolute must-have! My daughter got one after I told her about it. Same thing! Surprise areas that the dogs had stained." —Boomer

    "OMG, this is disgusting!!! I hope this isn't all just cat pee that shows up cause there is a lot! I bought this because I thought my cat was peeing in one room and couldn't find the exact spot so I bought this. Found the spot and more. Would recommend." —Momof3boys

    Get it from Amazon for $11.99.

    13. An instant stain remover spray to tackle any stubborn mold and mildew staining that you figured you just had to live with — not anymore! Forget scrubbing; just spray this on whatever surface has the stain, walk away, and do whatever else is on your agenda, and when you get back...the mess is gone, just like magic.

    Promising review: "I have a small three-tier water fountain in my patio, naturally the birds in the community have come to rely upon it for drinking and bathing. I literally sprayed this product and walked away, I actually left it on overnight, I got busy with other tasks. When I checked back all of the mold was gone, everything, with no damage to the painted stucco wall or cement and no scrubbing. Literally spray and leave." —Mark

    Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in three sizes and a multipack).

    14. A length-adjustable pet hair broom that might end up replacing your vacuum (just kidding, you'll still want to vacuum because of dirt, dust, and surface pet hair), but its rubber bristles will remove all the embedded pet hair your vacuum misses. Just look at those pet-sized piles of hair in the photos! 😭

    Promising reviews: "I LOVE this thing!! Total life saver! My dog leaves literal tumbleweeds of wooly hair around the carpet, this really gets in there and makes it so easy to pick up." —j

    "Where has this been all my life?? A statement my teenager said when she put this together and started to use it. With three dogs and living in Arizona (where it is always dusty) this works SO WELL. Maybe too well, because it got stuff up off the floor that I didn't even realize was dirty. This would be wonderful for anyone that has tile or wood floors — even if you do not have four legged family members. I especially love it because it is not heavy, and with my arthritis in my hands I can use this comfortably." —Linda D

    Get it from Amazon for $12.98.

    15. A hard water stain remover for anyone whose shower looks like a crime scene (or just has cloudy glass) thanks to unwanted mineral buildup and staining. This professional-quality cleaner will help bring your toilets, tubs, faucets, and even your brick and concrete finishings back to life with a spray and a light scrub, and one treatment can deliver results that keep repelling staining for months afterward!

    It even has a minty scent, so you don't have to worry about that harsh chemical smell most cleaning products usually emit.

    Promising review: "I have tried for weeks to get rid of some very tough hard water stains on my glass shower panel. They had been there for three years while my apartment was rented and never cleaned. I have tried just about everything from toothpaste to vinegar to different types of chemical products. Then I found this product...PURE MAGIC!!! The nontoxicity of the product is definitely a plus, it doesn't smell bad and doesn't sting your lungs like some hard chemicals do. Its biodegradability is a plus! I feel better knowing I'm not dumping some more toxic chemicals down the drain. Most importantly, it works!!! After 10 minutes of work it has removed 90% of the hard water stains that simply would not come off in the past!!" —O.R

    Get it from Amazon for $17.77.

    16. A foaming garbage disposal cleaner, so you don't have to stick your hand down there like a scene from a horror movie trying to find the gross source of the smell coming from your drain. Just run hot water and place one of these packets in your disposal, turn it on, and watch it foam up and drain away the nastiness, leaving you with a delightful citrus scent and a cleaner sink.

    Amazon

    Back when I had a garbage disposal (I miss it), I tried out this top-seller and it was amazing to watch *and* it worked! It's created with ingredients that are safe for your drain, disposal, and septic tank, and the instructions are very easy to understand. Plus, it smells good! You can use it as often as weekly to keep your garbage disposal in tip-top condition. But it won't unclog a drain or disposal...for that, you'll need to call a plumber.

    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 too). Weekly I follow up with the Glisten garbage disposal freshener and that keeps my disposal working well and smelling great." —Lostbraincell

    Get a four-pack from Amazon for $3.78.

    17. A pair of sweeper slippers ingeniously designed with a stretchy microfiber cover that can be worn on your feet (keeping toes toasty) or used on your favorite sweeper to collect dirt, pet hair, and more with barely any effort.

    Promising review: "I absolutely love these! I kind of bought them as a joke. I hate wearing socks, shoes, or slippers, but I also HATE dirty feet. These were the answer I was looking for! They are lightweight on my feet...hardly notice I'm wearing them, and by golly they pick up the dust and dirt that our dog leaves behind! They also wash very nicely. These looked brand-new after being washed. I'm very pleased with my purchase!" —Tim S.

    Get five pairs from Amazon for $15.99.

    18. A jetted tub cleaner, so you can enjoy bubble baths and soaks without worrying how many other people have been in the tub before you. This cleaner gets into those hard-to-reach places (read: the jets) and washes all that gunk and grossness out of there. Just look at the difference in the tub below — how would you even know all of that dirt is lurking in there?!

    Promising review: "Thanks for making my life easier! I used this product according to the directions and wowza!! I’m now completely satisfied that I’ve got the yuck out of my lines, and ports are clean. It’s safe to take a bath once again." —Prajana

    Get it from Amazon for $17.84.

    19. An automatic bleach toilet cleaning system — it's ready to clean your toilet bowl with every flush, meaning there's less work for you to do after installation. Talk about getting a dirty job done quickly and easily!

    It's super simple to install, and one cartridge can last up to three months!

    Promising review: "I love this thing. The concept is simple and yet undiscovered until now. Installation was easy and the system keeps the bleach out of the tank where it could damage the seals and sent it directly to the bowl. I had a couple of times where I had to brush the bowl but the problem was above the water line (very hot summer, lots of evaporation?) but we're talking two times in three months and barely any need. The three-month life expired two weeks before I changed the cartridge, so it lasted more than promised. I would have left it in place longer just to experiment, but that's just who I am, so I replaced it. (Caveat: My wife and I are the only residents in the house, so larger families probably have more flushes/month). Thank you, Flowmaster. Job well done." —John K.

    Get it from Amazon for $9.97.

    20. A no-scrub weekly shower cleaner for anyone who doesn't have enough time to tackle the stubborn rings in their bathtub — or worse the mildew growing in the hard-to-reach corners of your shower. All you have to do is spray down your shower after getting out and remember to rinse it before the next time you get in. After a few days of daily use, you can start doing weekly applications and check cleaning your shower off your daily chore list.

    Promising review: "This product is so easy to use. As you can see from the pictures, my bathtub was stained pretty good. The guy who owned the house before me used Ajax to clean it so it has almost no enamel left on it. Nothing could get the staining out until I bought this. After four eight-hour applications you can see the difference. I highly recommend this to everybody and once it’s completely clean I’m gonna go on the once-a-week application. I actually bought another bottle for my dad and mom." —Domenick R. Stamegna

    Get it from Amazon for $17.97.

    21. A bottle of nontoxic Folex Carpet Spot Remover that removes almost everything??? Seriously, this cleaner works on pet stains, wine spills, ink, dirt, blood (!!!), and even that mysterious stain you can't actually remember how it was created. The best part? No scrubbing or rinsing involved!

    In order to use this no-scrub product, all you have to do is apply it to the stain, gently rub it in (it's safe for humans and pets), and then blot with a cloth. It may take a couple of rounds, but you'll definitely see the mess disappear in no time!

    Promising review: "I had terrible rust and oil stains all over the seats of my car when I bought it. I tried other cleaners to get it out, but they actually made the stains darker. I took it to the dealership to see if they could get it out and they flat out told me no, so I gave up and lived with it for almost five years. I tried this after it was recommended by a friend. I sprayed it on and literally watched the stain run right off my seat. It was amazing! I thought I was going to have to pay hundreds of dollars to replace the seats in my car because nothing else would work. This stuff really is awesome!" —Brittany

    Get it from Amazon for $6.65.

    22. gas range cleaning spray to tackle any grease and grime stuck to your stovetop, so all you have to do is wipe it away. Imagine needing less time to clean up your cooking mess!

    Former BuzzFeed Shopping writer Daniel Boan has used this cleaner and here's what she has to say: "This stuff is THE TRUTH. My roommate is the best, but let's just say wiping down the stove after cooking is not one of her favorite activities. I'm not particular fond of doing the dishes, so I guess we're even. Anyways, I spray this on a few times a week, let it sit for about 5 minutes, then wipe with a cloth and it removes EVERYTHING. Like, every little spot of caked-on grease and burnt crumbs come off with just one wipe."

    Promising review: "I was about to replace my vent hood because the decade of baked on grease would not come off. This was my last try and BAM! The grease just melted off! I was even able to clean the grease screens using a mild brush!" —Michael Jock

    23. A microfiber blinds duster for anyone who keeps wondering where all the dust in their home is coming from — it's probably the blinds. This duster is designed with blades, so you can clean several blinds with one swipe!

    A customer review photo of the microfiber cloths covered in dust
    A customer review photo of their blinds before and after being cleaned

    Promising review: "I love this product!! It works fantastic! I am a housekeeper for several private homes. My least favorite job is cleaning window blinds! I have used about every method there is, but the job is still very time consuming. The main reason it takes so long is you must clean each and every slat separately to do the job right. Not anymore! With this product, you can clean two slats at once and it cleans them the first swipe! The microfiber is the key to getting all the dust and the design of the product makes it super easy! PLUS this tool can be used on different types of blinds because it is flexible! I have used it on wooden shutters, plastic vertical patio door blinds, and horizontal metal 'mini' blinds. Additionally, the microfiber 'sleeve' that fits on the tool is washable and it comes with five of them so it's a real value, being reusable and with so many to use it should last a long time before they all completely wear out! This product deserves 10 stars!" —Sandy D

    24. *OR* a microfiber dusting glove, so simple to use that you might end up getting really excited to dust everything in your house! Simply wear this thick glove and watch as it traps dirt, lint, pet hair, and dust from every surface you touch: candles, screens, shelves, blinds, and more!

    Promising review: "Do you hate having to dust around things? I know I do. This glove is ideal — you can just wipe away dust while easily maneuvering around odds and ends in your way. Because it’s your own hand inside the glove it’s also easy to maneuver over oddly shaped things like silk plants or blinds. I absolutely recommend this!" —Katherine Wise

    25. Affresh dishwasher tablets because cleaning your dishwasher is probably the last thing on your mind, but you can't help but notice your glassware has developed a certain scent... These help get rid of limescale and odor-causing residue hiding in your dishwasher (all you do is pop it in with a regular load!) which means you can stop rinsing your dishes after running a wash.

    Promising review: "Love love love. These little tablets made my dishwasher smell nice and clean! It shined up the washing machine and I was satisfied with the product itself. The instructions on the box were clear and precise! I love this brand." —Annalyn

    "I’ve always used a cup of vinegar to clean the dishwasher but it was starting to smell like a dead animal anyway. Finally broke down and ordered these tablets, and so far the first one has worked well; the dishwasher doesn’t smell." —M. Kurban

    26. Eufy robotic vacuum — this smart vac is designed for set-and-forget cleaning by sensing the messes and tackling them with zero guidance. Not only can it transition seamlessly from carpet to hardwood flooring, but its sleek shape means it can slide under furniture to get to forgotten and out-of-reach dust bunnies!

    This robotic vacuum also includes a remote control in case you want to limit its power in your household. Think Smart House, but less scary!

    Promising review: "I did a lot of research before settling on this brand and model. This unit gives reliable performance and is less expensive than many of the other options. As I live in an apartment, I can’t comment on battery life. It’s certainly plenty for me. We have a cat and a dog and two humans and the Eufy makes a huge difference in keeping things clean with low effort. You do have to occasionally rescue it from under a piece of furniture and be very diligent about pre-clearing cords and shoes with untied laces. It is so satisfying to empty the contents after a sweep! I’ve had it for a year now and there have been no issues at all." —Brooklyn222

    Get it from Amazon for $149.99 (clip the $100 off coupon at checkout to get this price).

    27. Orrr a hybrid robot vacuum and mop, just perfect for hard floors (read: hardwood, cement, and tile) since it gets two jobs done at once! You can go ahead and check the floors off your chore list after scheduling a cleaning with this smart machine. It'll chart out the path for each room and get the work done for you.

    You can schedule this smart vac-and-mop to clean at three different power levels (low for daily cleaning, medium for care cleaning, and high for deep cleaning), depending on what you need. A magnetic boundary strip helps tell the tool where not to go, so you don't have to worry about it going off the path into rooms it shouldn't. Plus, it's compatible with Alexa and Google, so you literally don't have to lift a finger.

    Promising review: "We LOVE this! It works so much better than our four other Roombas. It always returns to its home base to charge. It rarely gets stuck on anything. It’s very convenient. Our robot mop is so finicky and never wants to start. This product is so nice! We add water about once a day." —Ali Bruder

    29. A toilet bowl ring remover to make your porcelain throne sparkle from the inside out. This pumice stone tackles tough jobs, including rust, mineral deposits, soap scum, and other build-up and stains on hard surfaces.

    Promising review: "I never thought I'd be this excited about a clean toilet. I had largely given up on our first floor toilet. Nothing would take out the ring along the waterline. But I saw this product in a BuzzFeed roundup and figured it was worth a shot. Tried it this morning and oh. my. goodness. It easily took out the ring and with some harder scrubbing, the rest of the stains/buildup/whatever the term is for the stuff that made the bowl look gross. It looks just about brand new! Definitely worth the purchase." —Courtney

    30. A reusable weighted bottle cleaner that'll not only reach the bottoms of bottles your sponge or brushes have never seen, but it'll actually scrub all the gunk away, too!

    Promising review: "This little device is great. Super simple. Fill to the lines with vinegar and water, nuke for seven minutes, let sit for two minutes, then wipe clean. My embarrassingly super gross microwave wiped completely clean with a couple paper towels. Highly recommend." —UglyPetty

    32. A Bissell Little Green machine that's made to tackle those stubborn stains on your favorite furniture (remember that one time with the red wine?) and not just your carpet, but also your stuffed animals, curtains, car interiors, really anything upholstery-ish you can think up.

    This thing is a miracle worker! I have a ten-month old chow chow puppy, and we've successfully entered the no-more-accidents-in-the-house phase of life 🙌 , but I had five months of poorly cleaned stains from vomit and urine on my carpets that needed some serious power put behind them. I nabbed the Little Green on a discount during Fall Prime Day and a week later, my puppy threw up SEVEN times after a later dinner and very exciting round of the zoomies throughout the night. Long story short: this portable carpet cleaner removed every single stain, including older stains that I thought had set into the carpet and were a lost cause, and I learned I can use it on my couch from a previous vinegar and baking soda stain! If you have pets of children, I seriously recommend adding this portable cleaner to your arsenal. I wish it came with a storage bag because I literally take it to other people's houses to tackle their stains. So satisfying!

    Promising review: "Two months ago we got an 6-month-old puppy who has needed some time to get adjusted. That included more than a few accidents in our living room and on his bed. This machine has made clean up of everything so much simpler and I love that it's deep cleaning and has a nontoxic pet cleaner so that our not-so-little puppy can isn't harmed through exposure or smells. Also helpful since my teenage sons like to camp out on the couch with their friends on long weekends and our couch gets that fresh clean smell in an hour." —Kindle Customer

    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

    35. A tub of heavy-duty cleaning wipes — these are soaked with a powerful solution that removes the toughest of stains, including grease, tar, makeup, permanent marker, ink, pet stains, and more! Plus, they also contain vitamin E and aloe, making them gentle on your hands during use!

    Promising review: "These towels are awesome for so many things. They are large and very sturdy, so they work well for household cleaning. The real benefit for me, though, is having a wipe that works for things like the grill, the oven, the dashboard of my car, muddy shoes, chairs and umbrellas that go to soccer games and practices, and lawn furniture. I frequently wipe something down, rinse the towel, and wipe again. The wipes are heavy enough to go through three to four rinses and wipes and still hold up. The smell is mild and doesn't linger on my hands or what I've wiped down. Because the canister is heavier than most, and the lid fits well, it's easy to throw one of these in the trunk or cargo area without worrying about leaks. The canister's recyclable when the towels are gone — an added bonus." —COMom
