A reusable roller dog hair remover might just have you toss your old sticky roller after you see how much fur this reusable one picks up
And check out this ~glowing~ review from my colleague Jenae Sitzes: “The tens of thousands of 5-star Amazon reviews are reason enough to add the ChomChom to your cart immediately — but let me add my own personal review to the stack. I’ve been using the ChomChom for quite a while now, but I took the photos above literally just now to show just how quick, easy, and effective this roller is. It took 10 seconds to rid my velvet couch ottoman (yes, velvet…a terrible cat owner choice, I know) of the hair my two gray kitties are constantly leaving everywhere. It takes a bit of practice to get the hang of using this roller — at first, I thought you only brushed down in one direction, and was confused why it wasn’t picking up hair. It’s important to do a push-and-pull brushing in *both* directions so it actually pulls the hair inside, which does require you to apply a bit of pressure. Afterward, you’ll just dump out the hair that’s been trapped inside. The ChomChom is best for large flat surfaces like couches and beds.”
A bottle of nontoxic Folex Carpet Spot Remover will make all sorts of horrific stains disappear quickly
Promising review: “I had terrible rust and oil stains all over the seats of my car when I bought it. I tried other cleaners to get it out, but they actually made the stains darker. I took it to the dealership to see if they could get it out and they flat out told me no, so I gave up and lived with it for almost five years. I tried this after it was recommended by a friend. I sprayed it on and literally watched the stain run right off my seat. It was amazing! I thought I was going to have to pay hundreds of dollars to replace the seats in my car because nothing else would work. This stuff really is awesome!” — Brittany
A Scrubbing Bubbles toilet cleaning stamp for an in-the-bowl solution that’ll help keep things spic ‘n’ span for ya
Promising review: “I was sooo skeptical and was confused about how they’d work but the gel solidifies and with every flush, suds wash through with the water and it really makes a fresh difference. Also the scent is light but really nice and fresh! I recommend these 100%! They’re super interesting but they do the job.” — Janet

Wood polish and conditioner that’ll help revive all those worn-out wood surfaces

An Angry Orange pet odor eliminator for erasing all the visual (and smelly) evidence of pet accidents on flooring and furniture
This product does everything and more. Just ordered another round. We were about to throw away some furniture due to the smell and now after use we can keep it. Saved me hundreds. Well worth the money.” — clayton s tonkin
A pumice stone toilet bowl cleaner to remove all sorts of stubborn rings that’ve been staring at you every time you’re in the washroom
And in case the situation is a bit more dire, a toilet wand cleaning system with removable heads
Promising review: “So, we have a toilet that belongs to the cats. We don’t use it, we don’t look at it, we like to pretend it does not exist. Even with semi-regular flushing, cat waste is pretty nasty stuff and built up quickly in the bowl. One of these wands cleaned it up in a single session! Before and after pic attached.” — Whitney
A rust stain-removing gel to help the gross shower surround
A watermark-removing cloth that could also do wonders on the nail polish remover you dribbled down your bathroom vanity
A silicone sink strainer will save your poor old kitchen sink pipes
You know what I’m talking about. I own this and have NO dishwasher, so I do a whole bunch of hand-washing at my sink. This does a fab job of catching all the food bits (including the ones I thought I’d already raked into the trash) so they won’t go down the drain. And the silicone construction makes it easy to pop out and violently beat the metal part of the drainer against the side of my trash can to get out the food bits. Of course, I’m wearing dishwashing gloves when I’m doing this. But I still don’t want to touch the old gross food! Even through the gloves. TL;DR, your sink could really use this.
Plus a powerful dishwashing spray that, honestly, if you buy anything from this list, this should be it
I live in an apartment without a dishwasher, and I honestly use that as an excuse to order takeout food instead of cooking. But, as soon as I got my hands on a bottle of this stuff (regular Dawn is my go-to dish soap, BTW), I put it to use on both a saucepan I used to make homemade enchilada sauce *and* the casserole dish I baked those enchiladas, which had a ton of caked-on food. It really does work like I say it does! Like, scary well.
A holy grail soft cleanser
Promising review: “I’m now a permanent customer. I’ve used CLR, Clorox bowl cleaners, and others but this is my favorite. I used a small broom to clean my tubs and tile (as I usually do) even though instructions said to use a sponge; it dried my hands pretty bad (please use gloves). So I used the broom instead and it worked pretty well. I would recommend. I even tried it on my stove and it worked like a charm.” — Itzel A.
An intense grout cleaner
A targeted cleaner that has a commercial-strength formula
A drill brush cleaning kit you can attach to your drill/driver for an informercial-like cleaning sesh
Each of the different brush colors indicates which tasks the brushes are meant for based on their bristle type, so be sure to check which one is best suited for whatever you need to for! Yellow is the “all-purpose” medium bristle, but some are softer and harder depending on what types of surfaces you’re cleaning (but none of them will scratch).
Promising review: “I manage many apartment properties and finding people to do the cleaning has been tricky business, so I end up having to get in and clean these horrendous filth pods tenants lived in and left me to deal with when they move out. The ovens and stove tops are usually the worst, and I absolutely hate cleaning. I came across this drill attachment set, and let me tell you, it helped me tremendously! I still had to get in with a putty knife on some of them but it really cut down my elbow-grease time.” — alicia haats
Detail brushes that, when paired with some powerful cleaners, will bring your grout BACK to its original state
A bottle of Goo Gone foaming spray
A Baseboard Buddy, which is really just fancy talk for a 4-foot extendable pole
Promising review: “Buy it NOW. Honestly, I had huge reservations for this thing. Yet another miracle cleaning tool that will break or bend or something. I was so wrong. It was easy to put together and I sprayed it with Mean Green and went to the baseboards. No more kneeling and no broken back. This thing is amazing. It is durable and the pad is super absorbent. I am so happy. I can’t wait to do the rest of the house!” — artgirl
A couch clip-on table
An unassuming wall-mounted broom organizer
A kitchen mixer cord organizer that’ll significantly tidy up tiny, ancient your countertop
Promising review: “Great product. Super easy to use! Currently using on my KitchenAid, my InstantPot, my Airfryer, as well as my toaster. Using these cleaned up my counter two fold and made storing 100% easier. Thank you!!” — Suzanne Baker

A bottle of Kaboom mold and mildew stain remover
Promising review: “I love this cleaner! I used to spend hours with bathroom cleaners with bleach and a scrub brush in my white tile shower never getting the shower clean! I now spray this on the shower and walk away and in a short amount of time my shower tile is WHITE with ZERO scrubbing.” — Suzanne

Fridge bin liners that’ll absorb extra moisture in an effort to keep your produce fresher for longer
A set of stove burner covers to help you catch the mess right away on gas stovetops
Promising review: “I’ve been using the foil ones and while they do the job, they’re not so nice to look at. I like that this is black so it matches the original color of the appliances, but more importantly I like that this has a larger surface area to catch the drips that the foil ones never could before. They’re also trim to fit, so they get right up into each burner without leaving gaps where drips can burn where it’s hardest to clean. Overall recommended.” — Michael
A set of reusable microfiber mop pads (that work with the Swiffer you already own)
Promising review: “Just used these for the first time with my Swiffer WetJet and I gotta say I am impressed! Went on easily and cleaned the floors easily! I always hated the one-time use pads and never felt like they got my floor clean. This review is NOT sponsored, I bought these with my own money because I’m sick of single-use products. Seriously, buy these now!!!” — AKGross
An enzyme-based stain spray that’ll get out ALL sorts of stains
Promising review: “Puracy is the best stain remover I’ve ever used! Grass stains? GONE. Blood? GONE. Baby poo on white clothes? Doesn’t stand a chance! Seriously, Puracy got out stains from 6-year-old stored baby clothing!!! It’s that good! Grease? Gone. Seriously this stuff is AMAZING! Buy it now!” — GrantedByTiffany
A microfiber window blind cleaner with three blades can help you quickly get through cleaning the blinds
Promising review: “Where has this blind cleaner been for the past 50 years???? I have struggled to keep my blinds clean for so many years and happily found this item. It WORKS!!! And I love that it comes with extra sleeves, and the sleeves are machine washable. The handle is plastic, but I feel confident it won’t break any time soon.” — marionvgt
An automatic bleach toilet cleaning system, because Rosey the Robot isn’t available for bathroom cleaning
Promising review: “This is an excellent invention for keeping the toliet bowl fresh without a tablet that harms the flush seal. I was frequently replacing the seals in the tank but with this setup the seals last and last.” — Awesome Guy
A stainless steel cleaner
The plant-based, lavender-scented cleaner comes with a microfiber cloth for you to use on your appliances, and reviewers say you only have to use a little bit of the cleaner to clean your entire fridge or oven, which means one bottle will last you a really long time.
Promising review: “The stainless-steel appliances in our rental were so stained and smudged. Regular cleaners didn’t work. I saw this product recommended on TikTok, and immediately looked it up on Amazon. The reviews were good and price was right, but what won me over was the plant-based ingredient list and lavender scent. I used the product the day it arrived in the mail. Worked like a charm! Easy-to-use spray, microfiber cloth included. So now my stainless-steel appliances look shiny and my kitchen smells amazing! Highly recommend.” — diana
Grandma’s Secret, an under-the-radar solution with serious stain-removing prowess
Promising review: “This stuff is so amazing. I’m a witness. My 2-year-old baby wrote all over my white leather couch. I tried multiple different things and nothing work but Grandma’s Secret Spot Remover. I love this stuff.” — L. Nix
