1. Fizzing tablets that will clean coffee and tea stains with minimal effort, because scrubbing isn't required. Use these to get your travel mugs and kettles looking brand-new again. Just add these to water, let it fizz, and rinse!
Promising review: "I seriously can't believe how well these little tablets work. I had the most disgusting HydroFlask coffee mug — I tried everything. Bottle brush, different kinds of soap, vinegar, EVERYTHING, and there was still a seemingly impenetrable layer of black sludge inside. It grossed me out so much that I bought ANOTHER HydroFlask to replace it. Now eventually they both got black inside, so I tried these little magic tablets. I let a tablet sit in each of my mugs for an hour or two, and the black sludge rinsed out COMPLETELY, without even scrubbing. They look brand-new. What a magical product. No weird smell or taste afterward, either. I liked it so much I used it on another HydroFlask I use primarily to hold my Bloody Mary mix in the fridge. I couldn't put anything else in it because it would always taste like spicy tomato juice. Bottle Bright to the rescue! No residual smell or taste anymore. AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING." —Amazon Customer

2. A drip dry cleaner so you can clean your chandelier without the time-consuming task of taking each crystal out and cleaning them one by one. Just spray and let the dirt and grime practically slide off. Bonus: it can also be used on porcelain figures and artificial plants.
Promising review: "This stuff is incredible. There's no smell, it's a super easy application, and it gives instant results. You could see the dirt dripping down the chandelier...gross. I will definitely be buying this again. I recommend putting plastic underneath with a sheet or paper towels on top to absorb the drip. I’ve attached a before and after one application photos (seen above)." —kmw

3. A TubShroom that'll catch all the hair in your drain so you don't have to use complicated tools like a drain snake. This does all the work for you!
One of my BuzzFeed coworkers wrote all about the ~hairy~ situations solved by this lil' shroom!
Promising review: "Can't say enough good things about this product. I have a family of four and would frequently have to snake our shower drain, it appears I won't be having that problem ever again. I even give my dog baths and this collects the hair. It does not seem to slow down the flow of water down the drain significantly. I'm very impressed having been using around a month. You don't know how much hair you wash down your drain until you use this!" —Aaron Morlock

4. A stationary vacuum so you don't have to sweep into a dustpan and carry messes ~all the way~ your garbage bin. It's also touchless and doesn't require bags.
Promising review: "Saw it on TikTok and knew I had to have one. I hate cleaning but get annoyed with the clumps of dog hair and bits of things on my kitchen floor. I usually just vacuum my tile with the vacuum, which is a pain. This thing is so easy to just sweep things into and it sucks them right up. Sure, it's more expensive than my actual vacuum, but I've only had it three days and have used it two times." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $128+ (available in six colors).
5. A weekly shower spray that doesn't require any elbow grease. All you have to do is spray, go to bed, and wash it off in the morning. This cleaner is bleach-free and prevents soap scum buildup when used regularly.

7. A foaming garbage disposal cleaner because you can just sit back and watch do all the work. It will remove odor and buildup and leaves behind a fresh lemon scent.
Promising review: "Saw on TikTok (don’t judge) and automatically added to cart. So easy to use, takes probably a minute to fully bubble up and clean, and you’re left with a clean sink! I use with other drain cleaning products, but would 100% recommend for weekly maintenance." —Jessica Hamilton

8. A pack of dishwasher-cleaning tablets so your washer can be in tip-top shape so you don't have to rewash anything. These tablets get rid of mineral buildup and odor and are septic safe.
Promising review: "This stuff is amazing! I used it in my dishwasher. Had standing water on the bottom, dropped one tablet in the water. Put it on light wash cycle and at the end of the cycle, the water was gone! It thoroughly cleans and I have not had any other problems. I now use it regularly. I recommend this highly to keep your dishwasher clean and eliminate clogs from buildup. It was recommended to me by my super and after my positive experience I am happy to cosign his recommendation." —cheapchicshopper

Promising review: "I've been in the market for a robovac for quite some time, and, after a recent back surgery, vacuuming manually wasn't easy. I purchased this vacuum and have been very pleased with it. Its slim design gets under the dressers, beds, other furniture, and all the tight spaces that I couldn't get to with an upright vacuum cleaner. This makes a very low sound while in use, and honestly, I don't even realize it's operating, as the sound is pleasant (not loud at all)." —Teach3

10. Or a robotic mop so you don't have to carry a heavy bucket all around your home. And you never have to worry about a dirty mop again! Go ahead and catch up on your fave show while this vac catches up on some much needed cleaning.
Promising review: "I was a little price leery on this but I've just been struggling to mop as much as I need to. I have three cats and I already have a regular vacuum robot that is amazing, but the idea of a mopping robot seemed different, like it wouldn't be helpful. Then after falling behind on cleaning we finally decided to splurge and buy one and omg — it's amazing. I should have given in a long time ago. My floors are so much cleaner and I have the reusable pads and when I clean them I see just how much dirt this little mop robot is helping me clean." —Christina H.

The cleaning formula is released when you stomp, so there's no added spray involved! Everything you need is on the pad already.
Promising review: "I never ever write reviews for anything, but I just had to write one for these. We have two dogs and one of them will get sick or have an accident in the house a few times a month. I've used all kinds of carpet cleaner as well as the SpotBot, but they never seemed to really get the stains out. I bought these on a whim because I was desperate to find something that might work and guess what? THEY WORKED! No joke, every stain I have put these on has come out of the carpet. I have told everyone I know about these and have heard great things from them as well. If you are on the fence, just give them a try!" —Angela Mimm

Promising review: "I wasn't impressed at first. This doesn't take the place of cleaning the bowl manually, but it does cut down on how often you need to clean your bowl. I had old stains from the previous tenants inside my bowl, but after about four weeks the stains have disappeared. Love this product!" —Dorine Buse
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $11.39.
14. A pair of microfiber slippers to clean your floors while you walk to the kitchen for a snack. They pick up dust and hair so you can go longer in between cleanings.
Promising review: "So why do I like mopping slippers? I have a 2-year-old and they're great for mopping up little splashes. Drops of water from doing dishes and the extra padding is nice. No paper towels wasted and it's immediate. Plus these are cute. You have to have a sense of whimsy for this functional novelty item." —G. Kim

They fit perfectly, have no discernible odor, and wash easily. I recently had the ultimate test....baked beans that boiled over. After the oven cooled, I pulled the liner out, stuck it in the sink, and all of the dried stuff came off without scrubbing!" —Vicky

Promising review: "One day I will be the happy owner of a flat surface oven/stove top! But until then, these are the best at keeping your stovetop free from food and grease spills and caked-on messes. They're cheap, so clean up is a breeze. When it's dirty, just remove it, throw it away, and replace it with a new one. It makes cleaning the stove top so easy!" —Melanin Monroe

18. Or some liners for electric ranges so you don't have to scrub under your burner after you accidentally let the soup boil over while trying to learn a new TikTok dance.
Promising review: "These are great covers to protect your drip pans from spills. I like that they're small enough to fit underneath the heating component but don't cover the outer ring of the drip pan that is most visible on the stove. Since the outer part is easily accessible to wipe down immediately after a spill, these covers allow you to protect the inner part without sacrificing the appearance of a clean shiny drip pan on your stove. Considering the fact that this set came with 25 of each size, I would consider this a very good deal." —chem grad student

"I use this all the time now. Just squirt into pans or dishes that need extra attention and leave it for a while. Come back and you can literally just wash the pan and put it away. If it is a really baked-on, leave it overnight. I have found it always comes off. Also been using for a stain removal and so far it has worked every time!" —Keg
Get a starter kit with a spray and three refills from Amazon for $23.09.
20. A set of K-Cup cleaning pods so your Keurig can perform at its best. All that buildup can't be great for your machine. You just use these the same way you'd brew a cup of coffee. And if you need more convincing, just look at the water before using the cleaning pod!
Promising review (for the pic on the left): "Ran it through three times. It truly works!" —Shawna20
Promising review: "I bought this product because the needle in my Keurig 2.0 keeps clogging causing inconsistent brew and taste. These cleaning cups fixed both of my issues and especially liked that it was really quick and easy to use… I put the cleaning pod in and ran one cycle, then took the pod out and ran a rinse cycle to clean out any leftover grinds.

My rings were gross from lotion, sunscreen, hand soap, sweat etc. I don't have time to run to my jeweler to get them professionally cleaned. This does the trick, and same exact results! In three minutes 💕" —Rebecca Morea

Promising review: "Works like a charm. Forget scooping litter ever again! This thing is amazing. You never have to change out the granules, just refill when they get low. I take mine apart and give it a good deep clean twice a year, but that's really all the maintenance it requires. I highly recommend!" —Kristen I.
Get it from Amazon for $379.
23. Odor-blocking trash bags so you can take the trash out less often, because who wants to take it out every time it smells?
Promising review: "So far, leakproof. They have a nice scent but not overpowering at all. I've noticed I can take out the trash less. I can wait several days to take out the trash rather than daily with these bags. I use them with a good sealing trash can." —Firemarshal

Promising review: "I bought this after I had a spill in my fridge that took me forever to clean up. You do need to cut it to fit your fridge, which is fine. I added a liner to every part of my fridge possible, and I'm glad I did. After a couple of days, I took out my cranberry juice to pour a cup and I noticed that it spilled a little. I checked under the mat and nothing got on my fridge! The liner absorbed it all and left it mess free, which saved me so much clean up time and paper towels." — Yussuf Abusharif

Promising review: "I found a miracle product! After lesson after lesson on how to use toothpaste failed, I went online for help! The photo (above) is after two days (with old tube for reference). This cap really works! No longer will I be cleaning toothpaste from every surface! No longer will I stare at the ceiling wondering how toothpaste got there. Goodbye golfball sized globs, hello slightly cleaner sink!" —Christina
