Promising review: "Wow! I call these my 'miracle in a can/ wipes. These things are awesome. Buy them and cut down your cleaning time to just minutes. I used two and was able to clean my stove, refrigerator and microwave. What a great product. No buyer's remorse here." —Richard J. Jackson

Promising review: "This spackle is so handy! Much easier and faster than opening a regular container of spackle, then finding a putty knife to use and sand paper. Everything you need is right there. I filled probably close to 50 small holes and nicks from kids throwing toys, etc. in less than 15 minutes. Would definitely recommend this." —Michelle Smith

Promising review: "I absolutely love this showerhead. It works so well, I almost spend too much time in the shower now! I LOVE the rain and spa setting. It offers full coverage, plus a massage on my head after a long day's work; nothing beats that feeling. Will recommend." —Cory Sivo

Promising review: "I bought this as Christmas gift for my wife who has a serious need to keep our wood flooring clean. We have two pups and a kitty, so keeping the floors clean is no simple task, especially in the winter when you have snow, ice, sleet, salt, sand, and wet mud. This VMAI mop is absolutely fabulous. It's light, easily to use, self-propels, and dries very fast. Cleaning the mop heads is a piece of cake. You just peel them off (they are Velcroed to the mop) and throw them into the washing machine." —Kam H. Lee

Promising review: "The steam mop does a very good job of cleaning. The grout tool is great, especially for all the pink mold and soap scum in the shower. Similarly, stubborn stains in the oven can be easily removed. It saves me a lot of time and money. Overall, I am very satisfied!" —Queenie
Get it from Amazon for $79.99.
Promising review: "Works like magic. I ordered this product after spending a couple of hours trying to clean the nasty residue on the bottom of my oven with vinegar and baking soda. This Easy-Off spray is a game-changer. Finally, I could easily remove all the grease from my oven." —Kim

Check out our write-up of this inexpensive and super cool marble adhesive surface cover!
Promising review: "I do not have the money for a new vanity right now. Insert DIY project to cover my ugly pink bathroom vanity with marble contact paper. It looks 100% better and it’s super durable. It’s a little tricky to work with at first and then you get the hang of it. I’m buying more for my half bath! My vanity looks so great that I decided to do the tabletop in my laundry room, and that looks great, too!" —Natalie Evans
Get it from Amazon for $6.09+ (available in four sizes).
Promising review: "I love this. They're absolutely perfect for touchin' up the little spots that need touchin' up. I have several sets filled with different paints and so far they've stayed 'usable' without the paint drying out. I rinse the brush really well after each use (latex paints) and recap it." —Hooked On Amazon!
Get a pack of two from Amazon for $9.99 (also available in larger pack sizes).
Promising review: "For $10 you can cover up so many scratches that you couldn't buy a house big enough to run out of ink. I've had this for just four hours, but I fixed a table that was scratched when I moved it, kitchen cabinets, chairs, a wine rack, and some hardwood flooring. It does a good job at covering the scratches to a point where you have to stare at a spot to notice it, but don't expect it to make your furniture to look brand new again. But for $10 you can make your furniture look reasonable! Would highly recommend to anyone who has pets who scratch the !@#$ out of their wood furniture." —Phaedrus

Promising review: "I am happy that this has a true RF remote; I went behind the wall and it still worked. I needed three separate sets since my cabinets were disconnected, but being able to use just one remote for all of them is almost like what a professional would do! It came with enough cord holders to make sure they aren't hanging down. I left the lights on all day so a little bit of warmth would set the adhesive, but the lights really are cool to the touch. I think they should last for a long time since they are LED and the installation looks totally hidden!" —Daniel Moyer

Promising review: "I have used various paints, primers and sanding sheets for previous paint projects, and the paint would wear off every time. I recently used Rustoleum Transformations to redo my bathroom and kitchen cabinets as well as spindle rails on my staircase, and this product is OUTSTANDING!!! It really works. The paint stays, and there's no peeling or chipping." —Gigi

Promising review: "This is a really nice little shampooer. I have a dog with medical problems resulting in recurrent issues with soiled carpet. I was impressed with its cleaning ability, especially the suction and the cleaning solution that comes in the package. Having owned many other brands before, I can safely say that none of them have cleaned my home better than this small unit. That having been said, I also used the solution at half or less than the recommended ratio to help avoid the dreaded hard carpet and super soiled spots from soap being left in the carpet. Nice for the price." —Vi

Promising review: "If I could have given this 10 stars, I would have. We purchased this ladder so we could paint our 13’ ceilings during our garage remodel. It was a lot of work, but it saved us a ton of money. I always felt safe, even when it was at its tallest. It's very easy to raise up and down. The ladder is very heavy, but it makes for a very sturdy ladder. Best thing I've bought in years." —Amy Dong

Promising review: "We got new garage doors, so I took a panel of our old garage door and made a yard sign with the chalk paint. I prepped the surface very carefully and painted when I had ideal outdoor painting temps. The paint was easy to use and went on smoothly. It's been outside for a month and has lasted pretty well. I think it looks great!" —Jean-Jeannie

It even comes with five spray tips to help you attack light to heavy-duty cleaning tasks.
Promising review: "This little guy is a game-changer. It is so quiet, and so powerful. I was extremely skeptical about buying such a small, not to mention, electric pressure washer because I've only used gas pressure washers in the past. Well I moved into my house last year, and started to wash this driveway off with a friend's gas pressure washer and decided it was not worth the time because it was not getting very much of the grime/dirt off. Well look at what this thing did. This home is near the beach and flooded in Katrina, and probably hasn't ever been pressure washed. This thing worked flawlessly. I can't say enough good things about this purchase. Would buy again with confidence." —James G.
