1. An app-controlled iRobot Roomba vacuum you can let loose in your home to ensure every crevice of your home is cleaned and free of dust, dander, and pet hair. If you run it a few hours everyday, that'll cut down tons of cleaning time for you later!
This vacuum is self-charging and comes with a charging base (batteries included). It's also compatible with Amazon Echo and Google Home!
Promising review: "Loving it so far! This is my first Roomba and I didn't have much expectation from something so small and compact. I was wrong! The setup was easy [and] the app was easy to set up as well, and it was connected to my WiFi network in under two minutes. The first time you send it off to clean, I recommend following it around to see the types of things that it may get stuck on. Try to pick up all wires, pet toys and food/water bowls as best you can. You'll learn what needs to be "prepped" before Roomba cleans.
I've ran it for three days in a row now and each time it has brings back a bin full of hair from the cat and dirt. It gets places that I've never been able to clean before, like under the couch and bed. It has been able to get 'home' every time as well, even from under the couch...For it's size and how much suction it has, it's actually relatively quiet. I've been working from home and I let it clean in the morning and don't even notice it at times...I have already cleaned the filter and brushes, which was a breeze. They really make it easy with identifiable tabs underneath it so it's simple to pull apart and clean the brushes, which they recommend doing once a week or twice if you have a pet. My only regret is not getting a Roomba sooner in life!" —Chris

2. OR a reviewer-beloved, touchless stationary vacuum if you want an easier clean without having to splurge on a robo-vac. This handy gadget takes away the need to haul a heavy vacuum around the house. With this, just your broom will suffice for a great (and did I mention easy?) clean!
EyeVac is a small biz that specializes in stationary vacuums to make home cleaning easier.
Promising review: "This thing is great. 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 $149+ (available in 11 colors/styles).
3. And a pack of sweeper slippers that'll help you do the dirty work while you're running around getting ready to start the day. The microfiber bottoms will clean up the dirt, dust, and hair you may have missed from a previous clean, and these slippers are pretty cozy, too.
4. MVP Bissell Stomp N' Go stain lifting pads reviewers say really do live up to their name. These pads remove gross pet-related stains, and according to reviews, they work on coffee stains, blood, dirt, and even red wine, too.
The cleaning formula is released when you stomp, so there's no added spray involved. Everything you need is on the pad already.
Promising reviews: "I am FURIOUS at how great these things worked. FUMING. What sorcery is this? What kind of magic was cast? What spell was spoken? How...how do these things DO THIS. This stain...was impossible to remove prior. Every 👏🏻Single👏🏻Cleaner👏🏻Has👏🏻Been👏🏻Tried👏🏻 Then these little things…they come in and swoop up every ounce of elbow grease and tears I have poured into these SPOTS. IN SECONDS. The world will know...they need to know...that these things exist. I am having the absolute time of my life lifting these puppies and gasping every time. If you have a spot to remove...BUY THEM." —Kathy Prentkowski
"So easy! I ordered these for a bad coffee stain on my office rug, and they are just as easy to use as described! Worked like a dream with basically zero effort from me. They also got blood out of my white couch with zero scrubbing. My new favorite cleaning product!" —Justin Foster

5. A universal cleaning gel great for getting rid of crumbs and dust in the tightest of places. Reviewers use it for car vents and cup holders, computer keyboards, and even musical instruments.
Promising review: "I purchased this product to clean those little spaces in my car filled with random crumbs from my husband and dog hair, and it works amazing. Picked up everything and didn’t leave a residue. The lemon scent was faint and didn’t overpower the vehicle while I was cleaning it. But this definitely got in all the little nooks and crannies." —Kimberly
6. A pack of Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamps that'll keep your toilet looking and smelling fresh for up to 12 days — which in turn, will help your entire bathroom smell fresh as well. Simply stamp a gel cleaning disc under the rim, flush, and you're done!
7. OR for a more eco-friendly approach, a jar of 10 toilet bowl bombs with refreshing scent options like blood orange and eucalyptus. These babies are made with a blend of ingredients that specifically removes mold and brightens surfaces. It can be used to clean bathtubs and sinks too!
I've been using the blood orange-scented bowl bombs for a couple of months now, and OMG they smell amazing! Like, right when I opened the package. After doing a thorough cleaning of my bathroom, I always pop one of these babies in the toilet as a last step to clean and make the room smell a little better (I have a teeny tiny bathroom so this little guy does the trick). And in terms of cleaning the porcelain throne, they absolutely work. My towel bowl always shines brighter after using one. It's also helpful that the packaging is plain ole adorable and I don't have to hide or store it anywhere!

8. A self-cleaning litter box every lazy cat parent should have in their home! If you're a person who often forgets about your duty to clean...the doody, this gem of an invention will save you time, keep your cat's area clean, AND help prevent your home from smelling like a giant litterbox.
This liter box is anything but ordinary — it's app-controlled! The hands-free cleaning cycle runs 20 minutes after your cat leaves the litter box, moving their waste to a leak-proof, odor-controlled, and disposable tray underneath. Be sure to grab a bag of scoop-free crystal litter and tray refills, too!
Promising reviews: "This litter box is a must for any busy family that struggles to keep up with the daily maintenance of having a cat and a litter box! It works well and my cat is so happy always having a clean litter box." —Kelsey Decker
"I rarely write product reviews but this litter box actually made a huge difference for my house! I have had a cat for about 10 years who decides to do the number 2 about two feet outside the litter box. He has ALWAYS done this...no matter what type of litter or box. I even asked my vet about it and his response was "Some cats are just jerks"😂. Then I got this litter box. For the first time EVER he does ALL of his business in the box! And there is no odor at all!! I love it so much I have two. Would highly recommend!!" —Emily Stokes
Get it from Amazon for $199.95+.
9. A bottle of Folex spot remover that'll make even the most horrifying stains disappear from furniture, carpets, and other fabric surfaces. It's powerful enough to remove red wine, too... and honestly, the terrifying part about that is you spilled a good glass of wine. 🤷🏾♀️
Promising review: "I've been using this spot/stain remover for about 10 years now. It really is magic. I've removed numerous stains and spots with it over the years and have only come across two stains that it would not remove. Unfortunately, I don't know what the stains were caused by, so can't pass that along. I've used it on both carpet and upholstery, and it has never changed the color of either. I would definitely test it on an inconspicuous area first, though, as the directions state. And it's so easy to use: Spray some on the stain, agitate it with your fingertips, then blot dry with a cloth or paper towel. You may have to let it sit on tougher stains for a few minutes before agitating and blotting, but I only had to do that once or twice. Definitely recommend." —Alex
Get it from Amazon for $6.65+ (available in multiple pack sizes).
10. A battery-powered Rubbermaid power scrubbing brush with stiff bristles and a powerful motor that scrubs 60 times each second (yes, per second!!). These bristles are specifically designed to get the tiny spaces in your home like the dirty grout that's been there forever, the spot behind the sink you can't quite reach, etc.
Don't worry, the batteries are included!
Fellow BuzzFeeder Natalie Brown uses this brush in her home!: "I've had one of these since 2017 and pull it out pretty much anytime I have a tough scrubbing task! My grout, corners of my shower, edges around my faucets, and all kinds of other small spots get impeccably clean in no time, using just this brush and a little diluted soap. And it's handy to pull out anytime I have a particularly stubborn, stuck-on mess, like on my stove! Read my full Rubbermaid Power Scrubber review for more."
Promising review: "I'm going to be honest, y'all — I suck at housekeeping. I am one of the laziest people I know when it comes to keeping a clean house. So this little battery-operated scrubber is SO. HELPFUL. I used it to clean my bathroom counter and this tool got off several years of caked-on dust and hair. I was even able to clean under the rim of my sink, and what came out thanks to this brush was near barf-worthy. If you are like me and you're ultra lazy, this tool is for you." —Ashley
Get it from Amazon for $17.38.
11. A lightweight SUPER long extendable duster so that you don't have to put your back into cleaning...at least not too much. It stretches over eight feet to clean your chandeliers, ceiling fans, and the dark n' spooky Upsidedown that is underneath your couch.
Promising review: "Wow, this is so easy to use and works very well. I wish I had upgraded sooner. I have a two-story house with some really high ceilings in some rooms, and I can get to the fans and lights; it's just the occasional corner cobweb I need a ladder for. You can bend the duster head to fit whatever you're dusting and get into places at angles my other duster couldn't. It cleans dust REALLY well — the dust collects on it quickly and effectively. It's VERY lightweight, so even fully extended and straight out away from you, it's comfortable to use. I also hire a housekeeping service on occasion, and the housekeeper loved this so much she asked for a link!" —K. Andrea
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in six colors).
12. A Bissell Little Green Multi-Purpose Cleaner that provides results so terrifyingly good, you'll be left with a jaw drop like Kevin McCallister himself. This bestselling portable carpet and upholstery cleaning machine is *super* convenient and very easy to use! It works for dirt, pet stains, and baby stains, and because it's compact, you can use it to clean your car, too.
Promising reviews: "This has saved me so many times. I use it mostly for my carpet and the couch. I have a cat and dog with an almost white couch, so this has been SUPER helpful. It has yet to fail me." —Amazon Customer
"This little guy has been working pretty well for me so far. Raising my puppy from 8 weeks, I've had my share of things to try and get out of the carpet, from pee stains to puke to things he would knock over, to the mud he would track in. This would get most of it out if I used it right away. I am happy with the way it takes out most stains." —Cece
Get it from Amazon for $123.59+.
BTW, this tool comes with small bottles of ready-to-use cleaning formula, but if you need more, grab a bigger bottle for $11.99!
13. A rust-removing spray, aka a cleaning magician that'll turn your showers, sinks, and any other rust-filled surfaces into the clean slate they once were. Just spray it on the rusted area, leave the room while it works its scary good magic, and return to diminished stains you can easily wipe away.
Promising review: "Used it on our tubs, toilets, sinks and shower. Compared it to the It Works Bathroom you can get at The Dollar Tree. It took one bottle of this stuff to achieve the same result as three bottles of the It Works. I will buy this again, hands down. I tried the powder, which was good for scrubbing and soaking the tub, but the spray was fantastic for the shower and sink. Just sprayed, walk away for a few minutes and wipe/rinse." —Carrie D.
Get it from Amazon for $10.97.
14. A bin of Tide Pods that have honestly transformed the "doing laundry" experience. These in particular feature Downy laundry detergent too, so you'll get extra clean, extra fresh-smelling clothes without the hassle. Just pop in one and you're done!
Promising review: "I formerly questioned the effectiveness of these. Then I was asked to buy them for a friend. I tried them. I really like the way the wash came out. It's all you need for washing clothes. It's all-in-one! It saves having a lot of bottles in the washroom. The whole process and the friend changed my mind." —Book Glutton
Get them from Amazon for $21.49+ (available in five count sizes).
15. A ChomChom pet hair remover to make sure your pet's shedding does minimal damage to your clothes and furniture. It's like a lint roller without the annoying sticky pads that you have to constantly replace. All you have to do is empty the roller when it's full, and it's as good as new.
Promising review: "Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired 20-lb. tabby and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing – he never stops shedding no matter what I do. After using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet. I don't care; it's THAT good." —Stephanie
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two colors).
16. And a rubber broom that'll easily sweep up that hair monster that's been living in your rugs. This handy tool grabs all the pet AND human hair that's been embedded in your carpet for a scary amount of time (even the hair you didn't even realize was there!). And while it can work on any type of floor, it's specifically designed to pull up hair in the most difficult place — the carpet.
BuzzFeed Writer Emma Lord (pictured above) swears by this thing!:
"An embarrassing confession: my hair gets so ingrained in the carpet that a vacuum truly does nothing for it. In fact, to make matters worse, weird particles get stuck in the hair on the floor, which is stuck to the carpet, so I often was just unrooting clumps of hair from the floor with my hands (sorry for the visual). I bought this broom and it immediately started pulling it up GOBS of hair. My carpet like, genuinely changed color (turns out the pink was supposed to be much pinker, whoops). Anyway, do with that semi-horrifying information what you will."
Promising review: "I bought this broom two years ago and it is still going strong! I have four large dogs and we have fur EVERYWHERE! This works so, so well! I am always amazed at what this picks up even after I just ran the vacuum. If you remove the head from the handle you can use the head to do in all the crevices along baseboards where fur gets trapped on the carpets. I also use it that way to do the carpet corners on the stairs. Lastly, I use it to get dust and cobwebs off the floors and ceilings. It truly is a super tool." —Roseann
Get it from Amazon for $12.98.
17. A tub of the bestselling Pink Stuff to make those hard-to-get stains, dirt, and rust spots around the house seem like a walk in the park. It works for everything from bathtubs and stove tops to tennis shoes and crayon-covered walls. Terrifying stains be gone!
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.
18. A pair of reusable silicone gloves with silicone scrubbers on the palm so that you're protecting your hands, cleaning dishes thoroughly, and eliminating the need for sponges all together.
Promising review: "These are my new favorite cleaning tool. They worked great for dishes, but they are even more useful for cleaning the house. I am going to get a second pair to use for dishes and keep this pair for cleaning the bathroom. So great for scrubbing the tub/toilet/sink etc. You can easily clean in small crevices with these and you don’t have to worry about dirty rags and brushes because they are easy to sterilize and everything rinses right off of them. I am so happy with these!" —Brittany
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in three colors).
19. A pack of dishwasher-cleaning tablets to deep clean the thing that washes your bowls, utensils, and cookware (among other things) for you. Trust me, it needs it every once in a while!
Promising review: "I rarely post reviews, but this stuff has completely changed our lives. Our dishwasher, utensils, plates, and glasses were covered with dry scale and nothing we tried came close to helping. After using the tablets three times our dishwasher looks like new; our glasses are sparkling like fine china and everything else looks fabulous. Highly recommend, worth every penny, best product BY FAR!!! One great advantage is you can use it with your dishes. Some other products are used to clean the dishwasher but not to clean dishes and glasses. Buy this, you will be blown away!!! It is astounding!" —Jenny
Get a pack of six tablets from Amazon for $7.99.
20. A Dyson stick vacuum because it truly does it all. It can detach from the body to help you hit all those nooks and crannies, and...it's cordless!
Promising reviews: "Maybe it’s just because I’ve never used a 'premium' vacuum before but this thing is incredible. The roller head with the light makes the dog hair/sand on my light-colored floors so easy to spot and honestly makes it so satisfying to see it disappear. I used to hate walking around barefoot in my house... Once over with the Dyson and my floors are spotless. Oh and on top of that, it’s so quiet! I thought something was wrong with it at first because it doesn’t sound like a normal vacuum, my dog isn’t even afraid of it which is saying something. I can also tell that the HEPA filter is going to do a wonderful job just from the first use. So worth the extra money!" —Aaron Michael Yeip
"We previously had a V8 and were ready for an upgrade... Fantastic suction, a super easy bin emptying mechanism, laser roller is a lot of fun...Very glad I invested a bit more in this model vs. the V11." —Jeff M
Get it from Amazon for 592.90.
21. Or a more affordable, lightweight 6-in-1 cordless vacuum that can *also* detach from the body to help you clean every inch of your home in the most efficient way possible (on hardwood and carpet). It even comes with multiple brush rollers so you always get the best clean.
Promising review: "Gem of a find!! For ~$100 and with all the hype surrounding other vacuum brands, THIS is the one! A fraction of the price of others while still doing a fantastic job. I love the light bar, all the accessories, and how light it is. Incredibly easy to install to the wall, and I love that it can be disassembled to use on stairs or tight spaces. 5/5 stars!" —Katelyn
Get it from Amazon for $119.97.
22. Some Bar Keepers Friend Cleanser, a miracle-working rust remover that'll have your sinks, showers, toilets, and even pots and pans looking brand spankin' new. The rust you thought was invincible has finally met its match!
The cleanser is nonabrasive, bleach-free, and effective on stainless steel, porcelain, ceramic, copper alloys, fiberglass, Corian, brass, bronze, chrome, and aluminum surfaces. Simply wet the surface to be cleaned, sprinkle a small amount of cleanser on the surface, and gently rub it with a wet cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly within one minute of application and wipe it dry!
Promising review: "My stainless steel dishwasher constantly has streaks. I tried vinegar and vegetable oil and any and all home remedies. Just bought the Bar Keepers Friend and was totally amazed: It looks like new again. No streaks." —Lacinda Campbell
Get it from Amazon for $8.95.
23. An Angry Mama microwave cleaner that'll make it waaay easier to clean your microwave (so no more excuses!). Simply add in water and vinegar, then put it in the microwave for five to eight minutes. When it's done, just wipe clean!
Promising review: "I would give this product more stars if I could. I am a busy mom and my microwave often gets pushed to the end of my never ending to do list. So much so that I would have been too embarrassed to show anyone how gross it had gotten. I finally ordered this with the hope that it would at least help make the job a little bit easier. I was AMAZED! Seriously, the hardest part of the entire experience was trying to get the little mama’s head off to fill it and that only took a minute to figure out. I followed the directions carefully and then used a sponge to wipe off the grease and food bits. My microwave looks brand new. I will probably use a microfiber cloth next time though because the sponge pushed the mess around and wasn’t needed to scrub at all... If you dread cleaning your microwave order this, I’m telling you it really does work wonders!" —MJ
Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in four colors).
24. A pack of melamine cleaning sponges because they're tough on grime and gentle on surfaces. Reviewers call them "magic" for a reason!
All you gotta do is wet and swipe!
Promising review: "These magic erasers work exceptionally better than the Mr. Clean erasers that are obtained locally. These are twice as thick and do a fantastic job at cleaning up dirt and grime. I originally purchased these to scrub out the inside of my electric smoker, and WOW, just one of these makes my smoker door look brand new! I have started using them to clean all kinds of things around the house, and they have become my go-to tool! They work phenomenal on the whites of shoes look new, wall scuffs, bathrooms, shower doors, sinks, etc. There hasn't been a thing that these magic erasers failed at. Buy them today!!" —TShepp

25. A genius faucet splash catcher to prevent the puddles of water you can't seem to avoid no matter how neat you try to be when doing dishes. It can fit perfectly around your faucet and will help absorb some of the water that gets everywhere the second you turn the faucet on.
Hustle & Sew is a Saint Helens, Oregon-based Etsy shop specializing in quality handmade goods with personalized options.
Promising reviews: "The splashier catcher is great! I asked for a modification because I have a nonstandard faucet size and she made it exactly to size. Held up perfectly in the wash as well!" —Bianca Bealessio
"I’ve been waiting for something to stop the water from creeping across my island. It’s just perfect. I also picked gray so it blends into our granite. Sending the link to all my friends!" —AJ Lund
Get it from Hustle & Sew on Etsy for $13.50+ (available in six colors and four sizes).
26. A microfiber window blind duster brush so there'll be no more dust flying your way every time you open and close the blinds. With three blades that clean two blinds at once, it makes things SO much easier and faster.
This set includes five microfiber duster sleeves you can wash and reuse as well as a tiered plastic base.
Promising review: "OK I'll be honest, I ordered this because of the price. After reviewing several other options and having been disappointed with previous dusters I've had, I figured why spend more money on something that isn't going to work? So I ordered the least expensive option but WOW does this little tool rock!!!! It's very easy to use and clean. It does a fantastic job of cleaning and dusting the blinds and gets ALL of the crud off of them. My blinds haven't been this clean since the day they were first installed. VERY happy with purchase." —Amazon Shopper
Get the six-piece set from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in two handle colors).
27. Cleaning K-cups, because let's be honest, when was the last time that thing had a deep clean?! These pods are the easiest, fastest way to give your Keurig the clean it deserves so you can go back to enjoying your favorite hot beverages!
You can use it up to once a week or so; basically, it cleans all the built-up coffee residue and oils from the brew chamber and the pour spout, which will keep your coffee tasting more like it's supposed to (especially if you switch between different coffees on a regular basis). It's also good to use right before a tea or hot chocolate K-Cup so you don't have any coffee flavor contaminating it.
Note that you'll still have to occasionally do the vinegar descaling process — these don't touch the water chamber or the other inner parts that get the mineral buildup from water — but you can use this along with that for a truly deep clean.
Promising review: "Tried this as soon as I got it. Did the job, easy peasy. I am pleasantly surprised at how much 'cleaner' my coffee tastes now. Who knew! It recommends rinsing twice, but I did three times just to be sure. Great product!" —TRyder
Get a pack of five from Amazon for $19.98.
28. An electric leaf blower since autumn means falling leaves...everywhere. And while they're pretty to look at, they can be a hassle to clean. This leaf blower has a super powerful motor that'll clean your yard quickly (and it's kinda fun to use, too!).
Promising reviews: "I have six large maple trees on my property. This leaf blower is fantastic for blowing my tons of leaves! Tremendous amount of power to get the job done. Not too heavy to hold, especially if you keep it at arm's length and just sweep back and forth. I love it!" —Amazon Customer
"This blower is fantastic! I'm amazed at its power and the very low price. I have a large, challenging backyard which fills up in the fall with pine needles, tiny locust tree leaves, and maple leaves. I was blown away (no pun intended) by the ease with which this blower handled pine needles which are notoriously difficult (actually impossible) to move with my old blower and which clog up my rake every 30 seconds. I spent no more than 25 minutes in my large backyard blowing all the leaves, needles, and miscellaneous little detritus into one big pile in the corner and another 10 minutes bagging it. Easy peasy! It cut my raking time down to perhaps five minutes. Even better, the easy power control spin wheel allowed me to back off the blower and clear the leaves off my mulch without blowing it away. This machine is the best deal ever. I bought my daughter and son-in-law one the same day I used it because they have the same challenging backyard I have." —P.F. Walsh
Get it from Amazon for $79.99.
29. A stainless steel polishing spray that comes with a microfiber cloth. It'll make your stainless-steel appliances look as good as new!
Promising review: "In my experience, cleaning products usually need to be pretty strong chemicals that require care when applying. When faced with options, I usually buy the chemical with the most skull and cross bones, warning labels, and danger symbols I can find. I figure the more volatile and poisonous the chemical, the better it will work! So I was skeptical about this product when it was billed as a plant based chemical on the other end of the toxicity spectrum. I decided to try it because of the many positive reviews. I'm glad I did. It works great! I wouldn't use it as a mouthwash, but it certainly isn't as harsh as other cleaners I've used." —Joe
Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (also available in a two and six-pack).
30. A bottle of mold and mildew remover spray to kill the toxic mold anywhere from your bathroom tile to your outdoor patio (and all the sneaky places in between). The best part is that there's no hard work on your end. Just spray, wait 15 seconds, and watch the mold disappear! Talk about terrifyingly good results.
Promising review: "I bought this RMR-86 spray with low expectations, even with the good reviews. I sprayed a small patch in the evening and let it sit overnight. The next morning, the grout where I had sprayed was as white as if it were brand new. I decided to spray the entire wall and part of the roof. The next day, everything I sprayed had no visible mold. By the third night, I was pretty much spraying everything left in the shower. This stuff is amazing." —John Werner
Get a 32-ounce bottle on Amazon for $16.99 (available in three sizes and multiple quantities).
31. A TubShroom that'll catch all the hair in the shower drain so you don't have to dig in there later. That also means no more clogged drains!
Promising review: "I was skeptical about this little rubber strainer, but I needed something to save my drains from the piles of hair that fall out of my head. This thing is amazing! It fit into my standard drain perfectly, and I don't think a single hair slipped by it. It was pretty gross to see how much hair I lost in just one shower, but it was comforting to know it wasn't clogging my drain. Cleanup is super easy, too. I just took a tissue and wiped it from top to bottom, grabbing all the hair as the soft rubber strainer released it all easily. Not a hair was caught in it. Best strainer I've ever had." —Lawyer For Justice
Get it from Amazon for $12.99+ (available in six colors and a pack of two). Also, check out the SinkShroom and the ShowerShroom.
32. AND a drain clog remover because you've gotta clear it out before you can *keep* it clear. This is a super easy way to unclog your sink, shower, and bathtub drains that are FILLED with hair. 🤢 It may be a nasty process, but the results are quite literally scary (hairy?) good.
Promising review: "When I pulled the orange plastic spiked strip from the package, I was immediately skeptical and felt like all those five-star reviews were from people who exist in an alternate universe. I was tempted to initiate a return on Amazon but decided that I might as well gamble on a piece of $9 plastic before gambling $200 on a plumber. I slipped the plastic strip down my shower drain and literally FIVE SECONDS LATER I was pulling up gobs and gobs and gobs of hair. HOLY COW!!!!!!!! OHMYGOSH. I can't believe I still have any hair left on my head. SO MUCH REPULSIVE GUNK!!!! I saved my prize hairball on the shower floor to show my husband because I knew he would be as skeptical as I was. We both agree it looks like a small raccoon or a large squirrel lying helplessly on my shower floor. It's a grisly, messy, smelly and oh-so-rewarding job." —Chocolate and Chips

33. A super-strong scum and grime remover to rid the yeaaaars of filth that's been neglected to be cleaned and is now way too tough to try. This makes the process easy and getting a sparkling surface seem like child's play — and no, I'm not talking about Chucky!
Promising review: "Sharing our nasty before picture so you can really see the difference! Our tub/shower has a grippy bottom, and scum and dirt cakes on there so easily. The only way I've been able to get it off before was literally scraping it inch by inch, I've spent hours and all it ever got was somewhat clean — never enough for me to want to take a real bath in it. This stuff is expensive but with the good reviews, I decided to try it. it works amazingly!! I sprayed it on (it came with a great spray nozzle and a lid) and left it for about 15–20 minutes. Then I took a brush with hard plastic bristles (I believe a soft brush would have even worked) and with less than 20 minutes of scrubbing the entire tub and walls, it was cleaner than when we moved in. The grime and scum almost, like, melted off. It smells pleasant, it's not strong smelling but in an enclosed space I still felt the need to wear a mask while cleaning. The before picture is how the tub has looked forever and normally looks if cleaned with any cleaner/brush. The white spot towards the left with the brush next to it is where I tried a little area first. The second picture is after 20 minutes of work and I'm definitely taking a bath instead of a shower tonight!" —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I cannot believe how incredible this carpet cleaner is!! I have four dogs, five kids, and a large home with very light carpet. This carpet cleaner literally is magic. It has gotten out red wine, coffee, raspberry stain on white carpet, old urine stains that were found WAY after the fact, and the list goes on and on. I use it in a spray bottle as a pretreatment before shampooing, and most often the stain is completely gone before I even shampoo it. When I say 'gone'…I mean GONE! And that’s with no scrubbing. It disappears like magic! To say that I’d buy it again is such an understatement. I can’t be without it!!" —Angela Raab

35. Glisten disposer cleaner that'll get rid of the nasty grunge and odor-causing buildup from every part of your garbage disposal — blades and walls included! It's less work for you, and I've gotta admit, the foaming effect is pretty satisfying to watch, too.
Promising review: "This product is amazing. Every time I ran the dishwasher there was this horrible smell. So much that you could smell it throughout the apartment. I even started just hand-washing my dishes. But after about a week, the smell came back. I bought so many products to try and eliminate the smell, but after a couple of days, it would come back. Then I saw this product on BuzzFeed and thought to myself, why not? The first time I used it cleaned it out pretty well. Better than the other products. But then I used it a second time, and there was no smell. I'm going on two weeks of using my dishwasher, and I can't smell anything. I highly recommend this if you're having the same problem I was. This is by far the best kitchen cleaning product I've ever purchased." —khrystyne torres
