Dust and clutter have been living in your home rent-free, and it's about time they get evicted.
1. A foaming garbage disposal cleaner capable of turning your food graveyard into a lemon-scented haven. I think we all can collectively agree that shoving our hand down the disposal to deep clean is NOT it. Just place the packet in the disposal, let it soak, and turn on your disposal! Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
Amazon
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

2. A compact cutlery organizer that surprisingly holds so much but takes up very little space because of the stacked compartment design. This is great for slimmer drawers and gives extra space for even more fun kitchen tools.
Amazon, www.amazon.com
See this "life-changing" drawer organizer on TikTok! BTW, there's a version of this product for safely and compactly storing knives in a drawer too! Many reviewers ended up pairing both of these together.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Chelsea Stuart has used the cutlery organizer to make her kitchen feel more organized. She says: "Just got this, and it has freed up SO much space in our cutlery drawer that we can now store teas, small Tupperware, etc. vs. before it was just a mess of utensils."
Promising review:"I had never seen this before I bought it, and holy crap it changed my life. So. Much. Room. There is so much room left in my drawer now that I moved stuff from another drawer and I have an entirely empty drawer in my kitchen now. Now only HALF the drawer is silverware and the other half is spatulas and cooking utensils. It is great. It also seems very sturdy. Highly recommend." — van31050

3. The Baseboard Buddy because getting down on your hands and knees like Cinderella is not in your job title (even though cleaning baseboards is something you should do every now and then). The extendable arm gets in places high and low and is way better than pricey disposable dusters because the pads are reusable!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
The kit comes with one Baseboard Buddy and three reusable pads which can be used wet or dry. And when the microfiber pad is dirty, just rinse and reuse!
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
Get it from Amazon for $24.99.
4. A set of bedsheet organizers so you don't have to tackle the avalanche of poorly folded sheets and duvet covers that look like they're about to engulf you if you grab them from the bottom. This organized system keeps your linen closet tidy and simplifies when it's time to change the bed.
Promising review: "These are great for organizing extra sheet sets. Good quality and the zippers are sturdy. This helped me save some space in our linen cabinet, and keeps me from digging through several sets of sheets to find the right size." — BK
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $29.98 (also available in eight colors and four pack sizes).
5. An EasyWring microfiber spin mop since your floors do, in fact, need to be mopped even though you'd like to think otherwise. The handle extends up to four feet, and the built-in mop wringer allows for hands-free wringing making mopping just a little bit less of a headache.
Promising review: " After seeing a TikTok where a woman demonstrated this mop to clean her walls, and hearing my boss raving about it, I decided to click the Amazon button. Let me tell you, I HATE cleaning, I HATE mopping, but I LOVE for things to be clean. I was able to mop the entire house TWICE (Because it was that dirty. Please don't judge.) within an hour. A few days later I mopped the entire house again within 10 minutes because they weren't quite as dirty. On another positive note, my boys love the spinner and think it's a toy! So, every time I get the bucket out my 10-year-old and 4-year-old ask to mop the house because they think it's fun. MAJOR BONUS!" — Molly
Get it from Amazon for $34.96.
6. A spice rack organizer so you can make sure your favorite chicken seasoning doesn't get lost in your narrow kitchen cabinets. If you're guilty of stacking as many spices as you possibly can and forgetting about half of them, then this is for you.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Some reviewers mention using Command strips to secure this organizer, if you're in need of a rental-friendly option that doesn't involve drilling!
Promising review:"Absolutely love this spice rack! It has the smoothest roll. It is so easy to install (just two screws in the back) and they hold!!! It keeps my spices organized and my cabinet neat! Very sturdy and well made. I bought a single and a two-tier!" — D.D.
Get it from Amazon for $37.80 (available in 11 styles and three colors).
7. Bioclean, a hard water stain remover, to bring your glass doors, faucets, and shower heads back to their "what once was" state of clean. Now, with no more hard water stains or gross tile, you can go back to 🎶 singing in the shower 🎶 without a big ol' yikes in between the chorus and the verse.
Promising review: "Wow. Don't waste your time with any other formulation that you found online. I've literally tried EVERYTHING! The soap / vinegar / baking soda, the expensive store bought 'hard water cleaners.' I've scrubbed for HOURS! But this…. This product is like magic. It's kind of like a paste that you can rub on with a microfiber towel and the hard water stains literally just RUB OFF. Like butter! Seriously the easiest option I have tried yet. I stopped within the first five minutes of cleaning to do this review because I'm in shock lol. Coming from someone who never writes reviews! Take that as a sign to buy this immediately. What a game changer, I'm mad I'm just now finding this stuff lol!" — _kayla_carter
Get it from Amazon for $17.99.
8. A bamboo storage bag and food wrap organizer for storing plastic baggies, foil, plastic wrap, and wax paper all in one place instead of their bulky individual boxes. This comes with labels to identify your wraps and bags, and the dispenser cutters give a precise cut for all your food wrapping needs!
This can also be mounted on the wall!
Promising review: "I was looking for something like this for a long time. It fits in my kitchen drawer easily. Best of all, it frees up pantry space, and I don't have to look at a jumble of different boxes on the top shelf or be concerned with them falling. The sliders on the plastic, foil and wax paper holders cut cleanly. On the foil, you do have to make sure the foil is flat against the slider bar, and all I do is give it a quick press along the bar and it is ready to be cut. This hold a lot of bags and wraps in a small space. I absolutely love the Calmbee storage bag and foil organizer!" — Eileen
Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in four colors).
9. A life-saving ChomChom roller to put other lint rollers to SHAME because this bad boy can be used over and over again. All you need to do is just roll, watch the fur disappear, and easily empty it all out for a super fast cleanup!
Promising reviews: " We have two cats, one with long white hair who sheds a lot. I use this mostly on my furniture, comforter, and area rugs. It works wonderfully and is so easy to clean. Love that there is no sticky paper to throw away. A must-have for pet owners." — Steve Fadelli
"I have a golden retriever and the shedding is out of control. My fabric sofa is constantly covered in hair and I finally decided to try this after reading an article about popular TikTok products. The reviews do not lie, this thing works magic!! I wish I had taken a before and after picture because the difference is noticeable. I watched the video tutorial before I tried it to ensure I was using it properly and everything he says is true, you do really have to put your arm to work with vigorous back and forth movement! However, I find it's a great arm workout and it works wonders." — Joanne Ertel
Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in two colors).
10. An under-the-sink organizer because even your cleaning supplies deserve to be in a somewhat clean and organized state. The bottom shelf slides out for easy access, and the L-shaped design is great because it doesn't get in the way of those pesky pipes that take up so much space.
Promising review: "I have purchased three sets of these under-cabinet shelves. They are great in the bathrooms. I put cleaning supplies on one side and personal items on the other. The bottom shelf pulls out so I can access things without having to kneel down on the tile floors. Everything stays nice and organized. Great quality — nice solid metal and super easy to put together. No tools needed. Would definitely recommend if you need to make your life easier and save wear and tear on your old knees…. ;)" — TeresaB
Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (also available in a two-pack and in three colors).
11. Affresh dishwasher tablets for anyone who doesn't want to get on their hands and knees and stick their head in the dishwasher to clean it. These little tablets do the work for you. All you do is run it on a normal wash cycle and now you have a nice, fresh dishwasher.
Promising review:"After using this product, I am happy to report that my $5 investment saved me over $500. I was ready to replace my dishwasher due to super cloudy glasses, residue, and dishes just not getting clean. Then, I became aware that the water softener was no longer doing its job so I had the rental company replace it. Dishwasher performance improved somewhat. I decided to do two more loads before deciding to purchase a new one. I tossed one of the tablets into the bottom of the full machine per the instructions and ran the regular cycle. I did not expect the results I got! The glassware that I thought was permanently etched and ruined came out like new. Same with cutlery. The difference is unbelievable." — Sheila
Get a pack of six from Amazon for $8.99.
12. An unassuming broom organizer because you finally want to do something about that messy pile of brooms and dustpans in the corner of your closet. It's got five slots and six hooks and holds up to 38 pounds!
Promising review:"Perfect! Exactly what I needed to organize my mop, broom, scoop, etc. Efficient and easy to use. A little hard to get my scoop into it but that's cause it's thicker than the rest of items. Love that there are hooks. Spray bottles and cleaning product bottles hang perfectly on there too." — Kavita Chandanie
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in two colors and a two-pack).
13. The Bissell Little Green that works ✨wonders✨ on your couches, carpets, and other upholstery items since it magically removes dirt, stubborn stains, and any other nasty spills that have worked their way into your life.
Amazon, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Faced with either replacing our dining room chairs or living with the daily reminder of how disgusting children (x3) can be, we decided to replace our chairs. Until we priced some new ones. Enter the Green Machine. This chair has never been cleaned (I know, we're gross). I sprayed the included magical solution, let sit 15 minutes for good measure, and voila. Sorcery. I read zero instructions, just plugged in, and went to town. I would recommend cleaning outside if your item is portable; it minimizes the spray on the floor. The dark grey liquid on the collecting side was evidence enough of the dirt and stain-removing powers. Don't second guess; this was <$100 when I purchased it, and while something with steam and heaters and all the gadgets, I am sure, is wonderful, bang for your buck on this one is a no-brainer. Definitely bought us another year or so before we pull the trigger on something new for the kids to ruin." — aih
Get it from Amazon for $123.59+ (available in three styles).
14. An accordion-like pots and pan organizer to make the most of every inch you have in your lower kitchen cabinets. So when you bend all the way down to get that pan, it'll easily slide out and you won't have to do lots of rearranging.
Amazon
The length expands to 30", and each rod is 6.5" tall to accommodate taller items. Synthetic rubber bumpers protect your delicate surfaces.
Promising review:"Finally, a solution to corral all of these freaking pot and pan lids! It expands perfectly to accommodate my 30" wide cabinet. Actually, it can go a little further than that, but it gets less stable when you exceed the maximum width. It also works great for smaller cabinets. I tried it out in a pull-out drawer that's approximately 24", and it serves its purpose well." — Nurse Bex
Get it from Amazon for $32.99.
15. A robot vacuum because sometimes sweeping Roscoe's shedding fur, getting the under-the-bed dust, and picking up all that dirt that your kids trek in from the backyard just... sucks. Thankfully, this powerful vacuum literally ~sucks~ that all up and saves you from having to manually do it yourself.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
This is super slim so it can easily fit under your low furniture and it automatically returns to its charging station when it's running low on battery.
Promising review:"I should have bought one of these years ago! It's saving me time and effort to clean other stuff around the house. I've been pleasantly surprised how 'Pete' can make it over thresholds that separate our kitchen from the living area and one in the hallway. LOVE how he goes around our kitchen chairs and table and really gets under there to pick up crumbs! My floors look cleaner than they ever have! Go Eufy!" — Natalie M
Get it from Amazon for $139.99+ (available in three styles).
16. A beanbag cover so you can keep all of your kid's plushies in one place rather than have them spread out all across their room. It can hold up to 80 12" stuffed toys or five standard pillows. Best of all, it makes a comfy place for sitting!
Promising review:"These are perfect for any kids' room! I was getting so tired of messy stuffed animals and blankets all over so it's nice to have them out of sight but still easily accessible. My 2-year-old loves to sit on hers and read books. She doesn't have a ton of stuffed animals so there is plenty of room to add to it for when her collection grows. I love the fun bright print and sturdiness — she drags it all over the ground but I don't worry about it tearing at all. Just what she needed in her room." — dd
Get it from Amazon for $25.98+ (available in 26 colors and patterns and in three sizes).
17. A bottle of Wet & Forget cleaner destined to turn your shower and tub from grimy and dirty to spiffy and shiny. All you gotta do is spray, let it sit overnight, and rinse! Finally, now you can enjoy your own scrub-a-dub-dub time *without* having to scrub-a-dub-dub the hard-to-reach crevices on your hands and knees.
Promising review: "I used this product as directed and got the promised results! I literally did not have to get down and scrub my tub at all. Scent was very subtle (purchased 'vanilla' option). I'm completely stunned with the fabulous results! Highly recommend!" — kMcav
Get it from Amazon for $20.98 (available in two scents and two sizes).
18. A double-sided tea organizer because you probably need to have a better system of organizing your tea bags rather than letting half-empty boxes take up all the space in your pantry. This is super slim, and the bins are removable for easy refilling.
www.amazon.com
YouCopia is a woman-owned small biz that makes ingenious home and kitchen storage solutions.
Promising review:"Do I really need a tea bag organizer? That's what I was thinking when I ordered this. And when I took it out of the box. And when I filled the first little bag holder. But as the pile of empty boxes grew larger, I knew the answer was yes, I do need a tea bag organizer. I was using a whole shelf and a half of jumbled tea boxes that I had to sift through to look for a specific tea. In the end, I think this held about eight or nine boxes of tea bags (I crammed some of them). I am so happy that I got this!" — Sarah C.
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes).
19. A flexible drain snake for when it's finally time to tackle that clogged shower drain. This has small micro hooks that grab onto hair easily, and even though the results will make you want to gag, this so comes in handy for those rare deep cleaning sessions.
This pack contains a reusable handle and five single-use heads you can just remove and dispose of after handling your clogged pipes.
Promising review:"Wow. Best thing ever. Seriously. I have had tweezers and sticks and plumbers and chemicals trying to get my master sink to drain. The plumber even said I needed an entirely new faucet to get the drain plug part because they don't sell those separately. Well, I have two sinks, a tub, and a shower that all match, so that was not a valid solution. Doubt I can find the same model. So I bought this thing, stuffed it down, and pulled up hair and black muck. Did it about eight times quickly, ran the water, went right down the drain. Seriously. This is the best tool ever and the best $20 I have ever spent. Everyone with a sink needs this tool. Seriously." — juliejules
Get a five-pack from Amazon for $19.99.
20. A hanger stacker because that pile of hangers is becoming a total eyesore in your closet. This will help organize them and prevent you from playing a game of "Barrel of Monkeys" every time you try to grab just ONE hanger.
Promising review: "Working in retail for a million years, I know how amazing these can be in keeping your life less chaotic! I put off ordering for months, and I'm mad at myself that I did because these beat a box of hangers hands down! I ordered two: one for dress/shirt hangers and one for skirt/pant hangers. They arrived today, seem to be made of the same metal that I've used in retail stores, appear to be sturdy, and are super easy to assemble! The only thing I had to stop and think about is which side of the base should face up. It comes with all the hardware and tools for assembly. A great buy!" — KatieLee333
Get it from Amazon for $25.58.
21. A Cerama-Bryte cooktop cleaning kit so when you look at your glass stove top, you can smile at your reflection instead of roll your eyes at the leftover grease, dried-up pasta water, and other messes that come with cooking at home. It comes with a cleaning solution, cleaning pads, and a scraper tool!
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Love, Love, LOVE this stuff! Who else hates cleaning their stove like me?? It feels like every time I clean the stove, it just gets dirty again. Well I found THE BEST clean for your stove top. I applied this once after having oil and food caked onto my stove, and within seconds of using the cloth to clean it off, it was TOTALLY clean. Seriously, this stuff is incredible. It also comes with a little scraper which is perfect for getting those little nuggets of food off your stove. Buy this stuff..you won't regret it!" — Meredith B
Get the kit from Amazon for $13.98.
22. A set of customizable drawer organizers because we all have that one drawer where we just shove our stuff in and hope it closes. This set comes with 25 pieces and endless ways to organize! Finally, a junk drawer that will no longer be a ~junk~ drawer.
Oh, and the non-slip grips at the bottom keep these from sliding around every time you open your drawer.
Promising review:"Went wild organizing and cleaning my kitchen! These work so well for holding everything. I have a beautiful tea drawer, gathered all the meds together, and tackled the junk drawer! It all looks great and feels so good. The different sizes will work for almost anything you need to organize. The rubber 'feet' on the bottom keep the bins in place when the drawer is opened and closed. I think this was a great purchase for the price." — Paige Turner
Get it from Amazon for $16.89+ (available in eight colors).
23. A three-part microfiber wand, which gets rid of the dust on the top AND bottom of not one... but TWO blinds at once. This comes with five microfiber cleaning towels and saves you from using up a whole roll of paper towels just for cleaning the blinds.
Amazon
Promising review:"I absolutely hate cleaning my blinds, and it was pretty obvious that I hardly ever clean them by how much dirt came off the first time I used this tool. I've only used it dry so far, but boy it sure does get the dust off of the blinds. It does still take a while to do it, even though you're doing multiple slats at a time, but it sure is a lot easier. I love that you can just throw them in the washing machine when you're done. Thumbs up!" — Dopey1200
Get a pack of one wand and five sleeves from Amazon for $6.99.
24. A water bottle organizer because there's no shame in buying a sixth emotional support water bottle in the span of three months, but there is the embarrassment of that messy cupboard that unleashes an avalanche of water bottles every time you open it. Cheers to using vertical cabinet space more effectively!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Ready to use right out of the box. Now able to keep my water bottles organized instead of falling out of the dish drain I keep on the counter to dry them, and then reuse them. This allows me to store them when they dry instead of playing dish jenga when I try to pull one out! Great purchase!" — ashevillegirl
Get the 12-bottle organizer from Amazon for $24.99 (available in four sizes).
25. An extendable fan cleaner that will get all the dust bunnies up on the blades in one fell swoop. This is so much easier than standing on a chair or ladder with paper towels, and it's even great for dusting higher surfaces like air vents or corners of your ceilings!
www.amazon.com
Promising review: " Where has this wonderful duster been all my life? I purchased it after the recommendation of a friend. I wasn't sure how well it would work, but after the first time I used it, I knew I made a great decision. I used to climb on a ladder to reach and clean my fans and air vents. Now I can easily clean my 3 fans and all my vents in less than 5 minutes. I put it together the minute it arrived. The handle takes some effort to screw the sections together but after it was together, I found it surprisingly sturdy. Plus the length is great since I'm short. I can now effortlessly reach my fan blades and ceiling vents. This product is definitely worth the money." — Victoria Gaumer
Get it from Amazon for $16.99 (available in 15 colors).
26. A set of airtight food containers to keep all your dry goods organized and let you know when you're running low on your fave cereal. These come in a variety of sizes and with chalkboard labels! Big subtweet to whoever decided that flour should be packaged in a non-resealable, easily punctured paper bag, SMH.
Promising review: "These containers are amazing! They are very nice: heavy duty material, air tight, and they just look great and make things look so cohesive and organized! I love them! They can be used for so many things! Great addition to my pantry and cupboards!" — Jimi
Get a 24-pack from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in two colors).
27. A fume-free oven cleaner meant to tackle the most hard-to-remove buildup from last week's dinner that you just wish cleaned itself up. No more wasting money on weaker cleaning products; this stuff is literally called Easy-Off because it easily gets all the gunk off with a simple spray and swipe. New oven, who dis?
Promising review:"I HATE cleaning my oven and this is evident by the fact that I won't do it until it fills up with smoke when baking. I bought new appliances and I was meticulous about keeping the stove/oven clean by not using them. Well, when you're a mom, that kind of doesn't work, so I made sure to not have anything splash on the stove or in the oven when cooking and to immediately clean anything that got by me. That also only lasts so long when I work long hours, so I used to tell myself, "You'll clean it tomorrow". As you all know, that's code for someday. Weeks went by, and my stove needed cleaning, and I found the handy self-cleaning button. Let me tell you, that worked....the first time. I needed professional help the second time, so of course, I put that off until I couldn't. Got on Amazon and as I always do, I read the product description and instructions and then went straight to reviews on multiple self-proclaimed "best oven cleaners". This one was the one I decided to put my hard-earned money on, and it paid off! I sprayed everything the night before, and I was ready with my gloves and mask, but I didn't need them. There was no splash back when spraying and no overwhelming smell. Got up the next day, opened the oven, and 30 minutes later, it was brand new. I was so happy, and this is my go-to. I use it about once a month and do the self-clean in between. I've used it on the racks of my little toaster oven as well and the grime comes right off. I've included a before and after cause, I know pictures are worth a thousand words." — Sandra Stephens
Get it from Amazon for $8.98.
28. A reusable pumice stone so you can easily scratch away at those yucky stains without leaving behind scratch marks in the bowl. Those regular plastic bristles are no match for this strong yet gentle cleaner that makes your porcelain throne look brand stinkin' new (minus the literal stink).
Promising review:"When we bought our previously owned condo, all three of the toilets had a permanent dark ring. I must have tried at least six different cleaning products that claimed to eliminate rings. None worked. I was actually considering buying new toilets as the ring was embarrassing to me. A friend recommended the pumice toilet bowl ring remover, and I was prepared to be disappointed again. But it worked perfectly. The ring is gone on all three toilets, and it only took a few minutes per toilet. I don't know when I have ever been so totally satisfied with a product. It just saved me a whole lot of money, and I am no longer embarrassed by the appearance of my toilets." — lynn mcdonald
Get it from Amazon for $9.90.
29. A jar of *THE* Pink Stuff — it'll work wonders to remove dirt, oil, grime, rust, and stains from pretty much any surface. You'll be surprised that the ingredient list doesn't just say "magic" since it brings your things (stoves, pans, sinks, etc.) back to life with little to no elbow grease required.
Promising reviews: "I am speechless. I had burned on crud on the glass door inside of my oven. I literally took the product and put it on with a sponge, let it sit for 30 seconds, wiped it off with a hot watered paper towel, and it wiped clean! I regret not taking before and after pictures. I have tried everything under the sun and regret not trying this sooner. I was skeptical because I saw it on TikTok. BUY IT!!!!!! Can't wait to try it on the shower! [Best] stuff I've ever used!" — Courtney
" This is one of those 'changed my life' products that you come across every once in a while. I have tried so many different things to clean my clear glass shower door and just end up wasting time, money, and effort. The reviews and price of this product sold me on it. I love the smell (very subtle) and I used it with a basic sponge on my shower door. It did take a little effort but not bad and yielded amazing results. I then got excited about the other possibilities and have used it on the inside of my oven door with similar results. It's great. You won't be disappointed." — Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $5.97.
31. A set of cleaning brush attachments you can attach to a drill for some serious scrubbin'. If you've ever broken a cleaning brush scrubbing with too much elbow grease, this is the thing for you. Your back will thank you, your bathroom surfaces will sparkle, and you will be so thankful cleaning took half the time it usually does.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I've been eyeing these for a few months and finally caved... Man do I regret not picking them up as soon as I saw them! They work GREAT! We rent an apartment that has a 30+-year-old shower/tub. I've used everything from abrasive powders, gels that sit, to most recently the bathroom Magic Erasers and nothing really got the grime out. These WORK and they work fast. Ten minutes with my handy drill and the shower has never been cleaner. I love that I don't have to throw money out on cleaning products anymore and that I can be a little more environmentally friendly with no waste and no chemical cleaners! Just a little dish soap, baking soda, and a spin of the brush. If you're on the fence, just buy them!" — Becky Adie
Get a set of three from Amazon for $18.95 (available in six color and stiffness levels).
32. A pack of duster sponges that might just be dust's worst enemy. All you gotta do is dampen it, wipe, and rinse! The ridged surface grabs all that grossness and it's reusable, which is way more eco-friendly than using wasteful paper towels.
www.amazon.com
Promising reviews: "This product is amazing! It makes cleaning so much easier and takes way less time! I used to hate cleaning my baseboards, but this product has made cleaning it so easy that I actually don't mind doing it anymore! It is also great for blinds as well! Definitely worth it!" — Julia
"I rarely review products, but this little sponge literally changed my life! It picks up EVERYthing in one swipe! Hard water marks on your bathroom mirror, no problem! Hair clippings on your sink and counter, one swipe and they are gone! Dusty blinds? Swoosh, swoosh, swipe! And ala-presto ka-bam, like magic, they are perfect and dust-free! I just need one of these for my floors! I love, love, love how the sponge picks up everything, and with a little running water, all the dust, hair, muck, and guck just rinsed away! This will not disappoint! Thank you!" — DayDreamer
Get a set of four from Amazon for $9.99 (available in six color packs).
33. A length-adjustable pet hair broom to sweep up all that dog hair, human hair, and random dust that camouflages itself on your patterned rugs. But really, this works for any type of floor and will leave you stunned at how you and your pets aren't bald by now.

Promising review:" I saw this on TikTok and thought it was worth a shot. I have two dogs and a cat, and being one with a dust and dander allergy, I have to vacuum often, but the vacuum can't always get in deep enough. This actually works and I was shocked at how well it does. I brush the carpet a few times and vacuum it up and the carpet even looks better!! I highly recommend this to everyone — especially pet owners." — Theo Ackerman
Get it from Amazon for $12.98.
34. An MVP-worthy pet urine stain-removing spray that'll revive your carpets and furniture into the stain-free beauties they once were. All you gotta do is spray, let it sit for 5–10 minutes, blot, and let it air dry! Yes, you love your fancy little pooch, but you don't love the number she does on your carpets.

Rocco & Roxie Supply Company is a family-owned small business established in 2013 that specializes in pet odor eliminators, pet toys, pet snacks, and pet accessories.
Promising review:"I don't know how I ever survived without this. There are tons of 'pet stain/odor remover' products out there, but this, by far, is the absolute best. I cringed paying the $20 for it when others are between $5–$10, but I have NO ISSUES paying now. I foster dogs, some puppies, some older, some not housebroken, and every room in my house is carpeted except the kitchen, which means I have lots of accidents. I spray enough to saturate if it's a lot of urine, let it soak for 10 minutes, then wipe it up with a hand towel. Then I put a larger towel on top of it if it's in a high-traffic area until it's completely dry. It's taken out every stain, and more importantly, the odor is gone! I will never stop buying this product. I recommend it to everyone who has dogs!" — Shelley

Video does not show China recently airdropping aid to Gaza

What was claimed: A video shows China dropping aid on 17 May 2025. Our verdict: This isn't wholly accurate. While the video does depict an aid drop in Gaza, it has been circulating online since at least September 2024. And there's no evidence that China has recently delivered aid to Gaza by air. A video which has been shared over 8,000 times with claims it depicts an air aid drop by China is misleading. The clip, which is circulating on Facebook, was shared on 17 May with the caption: 'This is not Saudi Arabia's 600 Billion This is not Qatar's 1.2 Trillion This is not UAE's 1.4 Trillion This is china dropping air aids today [sic].' In the video, large parachutes can be seen falling from the sky attached to crates, while a large number of people on the ground run to retrieve them. Although neither the caption nor the overlaid text specifies where aid is being dropped, many accounts in the comments reference Gaza or Palestinians. The parachutes seem to be identical to those seen in other videos of humanitarian aid being airdropped into Gaza. The same video was also shared on X (formerly Twitter) on 17 May with claims it showed China dropping food and medical supplies into Gaza. However, this footage does not show China delivering aid through air drops last month. The same clip has been circulating online since at least September 2024, when it was shared on TikTok with a description stating that it showed the 'situation in northern Gaza in obtaining aid'. Full Fact has not been able to verify when or where exactly the video was taken. As we have previously written, we have found no credible reports that China has been delivering aid by air during the 11-week Israeli blockade, which was recently eased to allow a limited amount of food and aid into Gaza. Aid distribution centres in Gaza run by Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, a controversial US and Israel-backed aid network, were closed on 4 June, following a number of shootings on the roads to the sites, and only two centres were reportedly operating on Thursday, 5 June. Air aid drops from other countries, including the US, UK, Jordan, France, Germany, Indonesia, the Netherlands, the United Arab Emirates and Egypt, did take place between March and May 2024, but we've not found any reports of these having involved China. China announced in February earlier this year—before the blockade began on 2 March—that it would deliver 60,000 food parcels through Jordan, which according to Chinese media reports, was to be transported over land borders and not by air. We have previously fact checked other videos of aid being air dropped via similar parachutes as well as aeroplanes in flight which have been shared with misleading claims that China was responsible. And similar claims about other images or videos supposedly showing China airdropping aid have been debunked by other fact checkers. Before sharing content like this that you see gaining traction on social media, first consider whether it comes from a trustworthy and reliable source and really depicts what it is claimed to show.

Superstitious People Reveal Their Wildest Beliefs

I must say, I have a few superstitions ingrained in me. Don't we all? I hesitate to toast with a glass of water or share my wish when I blow out birthday candles. And even though my personal ones are pretty tame, I always LOVE to hear about the strange things people believe and how they rationalize them into their everyday life. So when Reddit user Responsible_Idea8766 asked, "What superstition do you absolutely believe in?" I HAD to dive in and share them with you all. Hats on beds causing death. Debit card positioning. Shoe order. Strange full moon coincidences. Childhood weather affects who you are. The name Pat. Iron keys. The planet Mercury has social power. Putting tools away early. Untucked limbs. Not trusting the 'save' button. The tech support paradox. Jinxing work. Knocking on wood. Things happen for a reason. Lucky and unlucky numbers. Deja vu. Sharing wishes. Waves of good and bad things. Picking up coins. Throwing salt. I have a few weird ones, too – ones I can't reason out. For instance, I don't put my purse on the ground because I believe it shows that I don't respect money, causing the universe to withhold any surpluses that could come my way. Or that Friday the 13th causes bad juju...I can't tell you why. In the comment, tell me the WEIRDEST superstitions you believe in or know someone who does. It's an itch I need to keep scratching.

I Swear By This Product For My Bathroom And Hallways — And It's Not Just For Kids

Few things ruin a night of sleep faster than waking up to pee in the middle of the night and turning on the blinding overhead light in your bathroom, jolting you awake and making it nearly impossible to fall back asleep once you're done. The same can be said for having to turn on the hallway light so you don't fall down the stairs in the dark when all you want is a midnight snack. Frankly, I had always assumed nightlights were for children who struggled with a fear of the dark. But when a previous roommate wordlessly put a nightlight in our apartment's shared bathroom, I quickly realized how subtly revolutionary these practical little gadgets are. I absolutely loved never having to turn on the overhead light late at night, so I could actually fall back asleep after a bathroom trip. I now swear by my GE rotational LED nightlights for my bathroom, kitchen and dark staircases, so much so that once I moved into a new place, I, too, wordlessly bought and plugged in nightlights of my own. I'm now on a self-proclaimed mission to convert everyone I know, because I'm truly convinced that they're a life hack. These nightlights come in a welcome two-pack (since once you realize how useful these are, one won't be enough anyway) and are light-sensing, so they stay off during the daytime and light up at dusk when a room grows dark. This style gives off 40 lumens of soft illumination so you can easily see and get around without hurting your eyes. I love how they rotate a full 360-degrees so you can direct their light directly to where you want it (I like to concentrate the light above my sink), plus they're sleek enough that you'll have room to utilize the outlets above or beneath them. These little home upgrades are so practical and affordable, I'm convinced they'd make great small gifts, too. While my rotating nightlights are my ride-or-dies, I've also compiled a few other great nightlight styles, including one with an extra-bright light and a dimmable, motion-sensing version. Read on for more standout options. Amazon These light-sensing plug-in nightlights are a bestseller on Amazon and give off warm white light to help illuminate bathrooms, nurseries, hallways, kitchens and more. They're also available in styles that give off cool white light or that cycle through the colors of the rainbow, a cool feature that's sure to be a hit among kids. $11.34 at Amazon $11.86 at Walmart Amazon This nightlight is dimmable, so you can adjust it from 0 lumens all the way up to 100 lumens. It's also light-sensing, so it'll turn off during the day and on during dusk. $11.44 at Amazon $11.44 at Walmart Amazon Life editor Kristen Aiken spotted these minimal amber-colored LED light on Eva Chen's Instagram and grabbed them up for a family member who just moved into a new home. The light-sensitive device will automatically illuminate when it senses darkness and has an ultra-slim profile. $11.97 at Amazon Amazon This motion-sensing option handily turns on its soft white light when it detects motion in the dark, and turns off again after 60 seconds of inactivity (you can also opt to turn this function off, keeping the nightlight either always on or always off). You can adjust its light from a softer 30 lumens to a bright 60 lumens. Its motion-sensing function makes it a great choice for dark areas like garages or even closets, plus helps cut down on your electricity bill. It's also available in a number of colorful lighting options (including blue, purple, green and more) as well as in a daylight white color. $12.99+ at Amazon This Affordable Grout Cleaner Has Jaw-Dropping Results This Surprisingly Chic $7 Pill Case Is The Most Important Item In My Bag Under-$30 Upgrades Your Bathroom Is Probably Missing
