    You’re So Smart, You’ll Get These 26 Products To Do The Work You Don’t Want To

    Because you have better things to do.

    1. A bottle of Wet & Forget shower cleaner because no one wants to scrub their bathtub clean. With this bleach-free formula, all you have to do is just spray it on, wait 8–12 hours, then rinse it off. Super easy!

    Promising review: “I had a horrible gray ring in the bottom of my shower that was impossible to remove. I tried the Dawn Dish Soap method (with a lot of scrubbing) and toilet bowl cleaner to try to remove the soap scum. My next step was to tear out and replace the shower pan and tile. I figured this was my last chance. I ordered the Wet & Forget Shower Spray and really coated the shower walls and floor pan and walked away. I CANNOT begin to tell you how happy I was to rinse down the walls sometime later and watch all that crud roll right down the drain!! This is the best product I have ever used in my life!! Works great and no toxic fumes!!” —Amazon Customer

    2. Some Glisten garbage disposal cleaner that'll foam up and scrub your disposal, leaving a fresh scent behind instead of icky drain pipe odors.

    Promising review: "Takes away that gross smell... It seems counterintuitive to put a little packet down your garbage disposal to clean it, but this does actually seem to work, at least for getting out weird smells that baking soda and vinegar don't really touch. I scrub the sink down first, especially around the garbage disposal area, rinse it down, and then just follow the directions on the package. I have used it with single, large-size sinks and with double sinks — only difference is that the double sink will have blue cleaning foam rise up the drain, which you rinse away when the disposal sounds clear again. I have tried the foaming cleaner in a can, but unfortunately it stopped coming out of the can about 10% of the way through. Went back to this tried and true." —KS

    Get it from Amazon for $3.78.

    3. A pet hair remover so good you might not recognize your couch after just one use! Gone are the days of pulling hairs from your furniture strand by strand. And because it doesn't use disposable adhesive strips, you can use this thing over and over and over and over and...

    Promising review: "HOW HAVE I LIVED WITHOUT THIS PRODUCT, OH MY GOD. I have a big Great Dane/pit bull mix with black and white fur that gets everywhere and sticks like the devil. I’ve tried fancy vacuums, lint rollers, that weird yellow sponge thing that’s supposed to be magic, crawling on my hands and knees plucking each hair one by one, nothing works. UNTIL NOW. I cannot believe my own eyes and I can’t wait to use this thing on every surface of the house and buy one for every dog owner I know. Seriously. I have a very clean home, and I can’t believe how much hair I’ve been living with in my rugs. It’s disgusting. This product is worth every dang penny." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in three colors).

    4. A pack of Bottle Bright cleaning tablets to take care of the tough stains and persistent odors living in your travel mugs and water bottles. The best part is, there's no scrubbing involved. So you get super clean gear with minimal effort!

    Promising review: "My tea mug was horrible: 'stainless' steel that was totally brown from tea. It's now shiny and silver again. I used it on my coffee mug and my gym water bottle as well, and they're all like new! Highly recommend and works super fast. No scent during or after use." —afK2

    Get 12 tablets from Amazon for $8.

    5. A pack of six citrus-scented washing machine cleaner tablets because no one wants to toss dirty clothes into a dirty machine. The tablets dissolve to remove any residue that may have built up, so you can be sure your favorite blanket comes out smelling fresh!

    Promising review: "This is the simplest way to clean your washer. You just throw it in and put it on cleaning cycle. It is incredibly simple and satisfying seeing what it breaks down and removes each time. I like to try to do one every two weeks to once a month depending on my wash loads." —Batman

    Get the pack of six tablets from Amazon for $11.95.

    6. A toilet tank cleaner with a citric acid formula that'll remove hard water deposits and other stains in your toilet tank without any elbow grease needed. Get rid of stubborn odors with this safe-on-pipes cleaner.

    Promising review: "Wow! First of all, I was shocked when I noticed that my toilet tank was so filthy. I never look in there but there was a reason that my toilet bowl needed to be scrubbed every day. The tank was so nasty I couldn't even see the bottom. I really didn't want to drain the water and scrub the tank, then I saw this. I honestly didn't expect that it would actually work since my tank was so nasty. I dumped this little miracle product in the tank, left it overnight, and the next morning I saw a much cleaner tank. I can actually see in there now. No draining or scrubbing. Amazing stuff!" —Linda Baker

    Get it from Amazon for $7.66.

    7. A pack of K-Cup cleaners if you haven't cleaned your machine in awhile and your coffee hasn't been tasting quite like coffee lately. Pop one of these nontoxic cups into your Keurig to give it the deep clean it's been needing.

    Promising review: “I had no idea that cleaning a Keurig was a thing. I bought these because I saw them on TikTok, believe it or not. I wanted to give it a go because my Keurig isn’t that old and I didn’t think it would do anything. IT WORKS SO WELL! My Keurig wasn’t as nasty as some I’ve seen luckily. I would highly recommend. Keeps everything running correctly and clean.” —Lauren

    Get a six-pack from Amazon for $9.95.

    8. And some Scrubbing Bubbles cleaning stamps since rings have been forming around the inside of your toilet. This will keep your toilet bowl fresh and clean with every flush. Just plop some gel inside the bowl and let it work so you don't have to.

    Promising review: "I absolutely love these things! I have five kiddos. These gel stamps keep my toilet cleaner and fresher-smelling for longer, which is a definite plus with four boys. These have an easy, no-mess application. I finally just put them on my Subscribe & Save so I always have them ready." —Alyssa M

    Get six stamps from Amazon for $3.96.

    9. A luxe automatic spice grinder to easily top off your home-cooked meals with salt or pepper. Since it has two interchangeable spice pods, you won't have to clean a whole spice grinder just to use it for a different spice. No cross-contamination here!

    Promising review: "I like that it has separate pods for each spice that easily pop in and out, and that the grind coarseness is adjustable. This is the best grinder I have ever used!" —J L

    10. An under-the-cabinet jar opener because no tight lid should get in the way of you enjoying some good ole Ragú. It does the hard work of removing even the tightest of lids!

    Promising review: “I have tried a million different tools and gadgets for help in opening jars of all sizes, and each one had its own issues! Finally, someone has invented the perfect jar opener that is simple and requires no space in your kitchen drawers or counters. It works perfectly and easily. I have already placed an order for another one for a gift or my sister." —cat lover

    Get it from EZ Off on Amazon for $14.99.

    11. A self-grooming cat brush that'll not only catch your cat's hair before it ever makes it to your couches, but will also give your kitty the scratches they need when your hands are busy.

    Promising review: “My cat Gambino Bambino would let you brush him bald!!! He loves to be groomed and comes running whenever the brush comes out. Though we love to accommodate, I know he wanted more. He was constantly rubbing his cheeks and ears on the corner of our walls to get even more scratching. I finally came across this product and new he would love it! It took a little convincing but once he got a hang of it he’s been loving it! We have one in the living room, one in the kitchen, one at the top of the stairs and one in the guest room! He is having a great time!!! Very easy to put together and place on the wall.” —T. Mangiaracina

    Get it from Amazon for $4.99.

    12. A grape cutter to quickly slice grapes into quarters so they're less of a hazard for your snacking tot. It's also safe enough for your little one to use (with your supervision, of course).

    Promising reviews: "LOVE it. It took three minutes to cut grapes that would have taken me at least 10. As a mom of a toddler, those minutes are precious. It was also fun and easy to use." —Jacqueline

    "I wish I would’ve had this a LONG time ago. This little gadget has come in so handy. If you have a toddler or small child, you NEED this. It quarters grapes, cherry tomatoes, olives, etc. so they aren’t choking hazards for little ones. So much faster than slicing every tiny grape up yourself. 10/10 would recommend." —Sara Waits

    Get it from Amazon for $11.95 (available in two colors).

    13. An automatic self-cleaning litter box so you don't have to do the literal dirty work of scooping and sifting through your furry companion's excrement. This futuristic litter box neutralizes odors and minimizes the need to constantly refill it with fresh litter. And, of course, there's an app that'll allow you to see and manage your kitty's health.

    Promising review: "I love this litter box! It easily responded to the tiny weight of my two kittens when the big name brands recommend for adult cats only. It set up and connected easily, the collection drawer is easy to access and clean, and the app tells me when more litter is needed and tracks each time the box is used. There is no bad smell in my small house, and best of all, I don't need to scoop after two cats!" —Laurie Chandler

    Get it from Amazon for $399.99.

    14. A versatile chopping device for an easier time dicing and grating veggies. Stop wasting time (and tears) chopping onions by hand.

    Promising review: "Such a great product! I used to spend anywhere from 5–15 minutes cutting veggies and now it literally takes seconds! Cuts down on my prep time significantly and doesn’t make cooking a chore anymore!" —Britney

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in two styles).

    15. A microwave steam cleaner you just fill with water and vinegar to melt away all the food trapped on the walls and ceiling. Then, you can quickly and easily wipe all that yuck away!

    Promising review: "Something I didn't believe until I tried it. So easy to follow directions written on Angry Mama. Was disappointed when I opened the microwave to see the filth still on it. Was wishing it would magically taken care of itself. But all it took was a quick swipe with a paper towel and GONE. Loosened everything, which is half the process. My microwave was sooooo white once cleaned!! Would buy as gifts." —JDesmond

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

    16. An electric makeup brush cleaner and dryer because cleaning your brushes by hand doesn't get all the product off, does it? And this will have your brushes dry in under a minute!

    Promising review: "I usually don’t write reviews, but this is a game-changer! I bought this with very low expectations. I didn’t think it would clean the brushes but I heard these devices are great for drying brushes. This cleaned my brushes and dried them in no time. This is probably my greatest Amazon purchase to date." —Dianna K

    Promising review: "This is a great little vacuum. It cleans really well, and the battery goes for a couple of hours. It always docks itself easily when done and never misses a spot in my 1,100-square-foot condo. It will go over rugs easily and fits under everything with no problem. I have two Maine Coons, and it does a great job of cleaning up their hair and any litter tracking. The drawer needs to be emptied every couple of days, but it's not a big deal for me. I have tile floors and carpet in the bedrooms. It cleans both well. It even cleans the litter mat in from of the litter box. This was well worth the money." —Renee

    Get it from Amazon for $243.97+ (available in two styles).

    18. A Dawn Powerwash dish spray bundle if your ideal dishwashing experience consists of spraying, waiting, and wiping. This spray can easily cut through grease to clean heavily soiled dishes.

    My mom swears by this spray! It can be used to clean more than just your dishes. I personally use it to clean my bathtub!

    This bundle includes one spray bottle and three refills.

    Promising review: “I had my doubts as rave reviews are usually over-exaggerations, but not this time. This thing is MAGICAL. Literally cleans everything with a spray. I have hard water at my place, and soap scum buildup is quite bad in my bathtub and shower glass doors. With this Powerwash, I just spray, wait a couple of minutes, and wipe, and literally all the soap scrum is completely gone. I am left with spotless shower glass doors AND shiny faucets. I spray this stuff on everything that is hard to clean. Sticky stuff like stickers and labels? Spray, wait, wipe. Poof it's gone. Sticky stuff like food residue on dishes or your oven? Oil on top of or around your stove and/or cabinet? Spray, wait, wipe. Poof it's gone. Soap scrum, yellow tubs, oily tools, spotty hand prints on fridge? Say no more. Spray, wait, wipe. Poof it's gone. Dirty tires, rims? Yup, spray, wait, wipe, poof it's gone! I have successfully used this magical cleaner on all of the above.” —Es 

    Get it from Amazon for $17.50.

    19. A stationary vacuum for easily grabbing every last speck of dust (unlike your dustpan), even the stubborn hairs and fibers stuck to your broom. Plus, it's got a dual filter that both removes dust molecules and returns clean air back into your home.

    Promising review: "I usually don’t write reviews. In fact, this may be my first review ever. But I just couldn't keep this to myself. I love this little thing. It’s so powerful and has actually made sweeping a much less daunting task. I HIGHLY recommend this. Especially for those of you with hardwood floors and shedding pets. Buy it now!!" —Noalani H.

    Get it from Amazon for $199 (available in three colors).

    21. A luxuriously minimalist Tushy spa bidet that'll allow you to adjust the water temperature for optimal tushy cleaning and comfort. You won't be able to go back to just regular ole toilet paper ever again.

    Promising review: "I always see reviews for these with people stating that they wish they'd have made the switch to a bidet MUCH sooner. I seriously hate using other bathrooms that are not equipped with a bidet. Wishing I had made this purchase long ago and joined the clean butt club!" —Klint

    Get it from Amazon for $134.95+ (available in seven colors).

    22. A pancake batter dispenser to help make breakfast time a quicker and less messy affair. No more splattering! It even comes with a wire ball you can drop inside so it'll mix your batter for you without you having to take out and clean any appliances.

    Promising review: “If you’re thinking of buying this item, DO IT! I originally purchased it because I was tired of scooping my batter with a measuring cup, dripping along the way, just to have oblong-shaped pancakes. This thing makes the perfect round cakes with no mess! I was skeptical about it holding as much batter as we usually use; enough for four people. But it was perfect when we doubled the original recipe! It has a built-in stand when you add your ingredients through the bottom and cleanup is a breeze.” —Michelle W.

    Get it from Amazon for $13.34.

    23. An automatic pet feeder because you deserve a night on the town with no worries. And Fluffy deserves two square meals a day. Using your smartphone, you can program up to 15 meals and you can even record audio of you calling them over for dinner!

The amount of food it stores ensures we don’t have to worry about our cats going hungry if we are away." —Matthew Wright

    Get it from Amazon for $68.09+ (available in two colors).

    Promising review: "I literally had an infestation of fruit flies. I cannot believe how well this worked. No odor from the drops that it uses and the flies are really attracted to it. I recommend this product if you’re having a problem." —Mack Mama

    25. A small reusable ball with a sticky insert that'll keep dirt and crumbs from littering the bottom of your purse.

    Promising review: "Best. Thing. Ever. This product works like a charm. It gets the sand from between their pads, and is gentle enough that even my most stubborn pup tolerates it! I have a terrier/schnauzer that likes to dig, a mini goldendoodle that is prissy about her paws and a standard labradoodle puppy that is still very fuzzy. We have a farm where it is extremely sandy and we stay in a travel trailer. The amount of sand they were tracking in to the camper was ridiculous. It takes me three minutes to clean and dry off all of their paws. Seriously the best purchase I have made!" —Rachel

    Get it from Amazon for $14.67+ (available in three sizes and seven colors).
