    21 Actually Effective Cleaning Products From Amazon Canada I Tried In My Own Home

    With plenty of satisfying before-and-afters!

    1. A bottle of Bar Keepers Friend if you're sick and tired of scrubbing stubborn messes. It'll gently polish away everything from rust to caked-on gunk.

    2. A stick of Tide To Go that'll tackle teensy stains in a flash. The chiseled marker-like tip makes application precise and simple (and one pen can last you several years).

    3. A carton of all-natural dish soap that'll cut through grease and sticky messes without drying out your skin. It comes in cardboard packaging so it'll help you keep plastic waste to a minimum, too!

    4. An extra-long Swiffer duster that'll help you reach all the dust hiding on top of your cabinets and light fixtures. The handle extends up to six feet so you won't have to perch precariously on top of your furniture.

    5. A bottle of Leather Honey cleaner that'll restore your fave goods and furniture to like-new condition. Don't be fooled by the petite bottle — it's ultra concentrated (one bottle can make up to 32 ounces of cleaner!) and it works on faux leather, vinyl, plastic, and rubber.

    6. A stainless steel cleaner polish that'll help you buff gross kitchen grime (like food splatter and grease) off your appliances. The formula easily dissolves muck and leaves behind a protective film that'll stop new messes from forming.

    7. A bottle of Scrubbing Bubbles toilet bowl cleaner that'll get your porcelain throne looking positively sparkling. The twisty gooseneck means you can easily slather it into all those pesky crevices — then just sit back and watch the magic!

    8. A mopping robot that'll clean and sweep your floors so you won't have to. It's whisper-quiet and, thanks to its square shape, can easily tuck into all the nooks, crannies, and corners of your home.

    9. A jug of Woolite laundry detergent that'll keep all your knits soft and plush. Even though it's gentle as heck on fabrics, it'll still lift away gunk without causing any stretching or colour fading.

    10. A pack of scented garbage bags that'll magically mask all those gross smells. They have elongated flaps around the rim for easy tying and are strong enough to withstand sharp and pointy trash.

    11. A bottle of Goo Gone that absolutely lives up to the hype. Waxy residue? Gone. Sticky mess? Gone. It'll blast through everything from glue to gum in less time than you thought possible.

    12. A pack of dry cleaning sheets if you're tired of lugging your linens to the dry cleaner every few months. They can clean all kinds fabrics, including those "special care" items you've been hiding at the back of your closet.

    13. A bottle of spray foam cleaner if you're tired of scrubbing 'til your fingers bleed. The dense foam can cling to just about any surface so it'll stay put where you need it to (instead of dribbling down your surfaces).

    14. A mini broom and dust pan set that'll help you tidy tiny messes without needing to whip out your whole cleaning kit. The silicone-rimmed dustpan is super deep so dust and dirt will stay contained.

    15. A set of skinny brushes if you think it's time to give your reusable straws a scrubbing (it is). Their stiff bristles will easily lift away stubborn gunk and they even have silicone tips to protect your stuff from getting scratched up by the wire.

    16. A pack of extra-durable Mr. Clean Magic Erasers that'll make tough stains disappear in seconds — perfect for those times when friends just "wanna stop by". They won't shred while you're scrubbing, which means they'll actually last 'til grime and dirt are erased.

    17. A compressed gas duster that'll blast away the debris you can't seem to reach. This is a dream for all tough-to-clean spots (like inside computer mice and between ceiling fan components) and even comes with a little nozzle to direct the gas right where it needs to go.

    18. A defuzzer that'll trim the pills off your sweaters, pants, and other linens. It's got an adjustable cap that'll stop snags so you won't have to stress about accidentally tearing a hole in your fave top. Reviewers say it's made everything from towels to toques look brand new again!

    19. A bottle of all-purpose cleaner that'll dissolve bacteria and stains in the blink of an eye. It doesn't stink like bleach and works almost instantly — which means no more sitting around while the product works its magic.

    20. A bottle of quartz countertop cleaner if you can't stand the look of fingerprints all over your countertops. It's even got built-in UV protection that'll keep your marble, quartz, and stone from fading so you won't have to fork over extra moola to get it replaced or touched up.

    21. And lastly, a tube of Sensodyne toothpaste — my secret weapon for polishing jewellery, silverware, and other kinds of tarnished metals. If it's gentle enough for my chompers, I feel safe knowing it won't damage my precious goods, either.

    I feel like a goddamn wizard!
