It's time to spring clean! Because, unfortunately, you can't just move and start over every year.
1. A tub of The Pink Stuff, aka an all-purpose paste you can use to scrub any hard surface in your home, from ovens and appliances to tubs and tiles. With very minimal effort (aka scrubbing) on your part, this pink goo goes the distance, so you don't have to.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Moved into this house with what must be over eight years of water scum on the shower glass — enough to make it look frosted. I had a cleaning crew come out to clean the house, and they worked for hours in the bathroom, and still couldn't get that glass clear. I thought I was just going to have to live with it...until I remembered I bought the pink paste! I completely forgot I had it in my utility closet. I began using it, and I couldn't believe it. I'm so excited to continue on and free my bathroom of the remaining water marks! This product is a must-have" — Abigail Pafford
Get it from Amazon for $5.97.
2. A Chomp wall cleaner that comes with a baseboard duster, dry dust and wet mop cleaning pads. You will feel like such a superhero when you use this, wiping away years of dust, grime, and weird handprints you didn't even realize were that high up.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"This is a game changer, y'all! I'm awestruck! I have arthritis all over, and a limited income and this helped me clean every single wall in my bedroom in one day. I just rinsed out the yellow head in the sink every few square feet. I'm so excited and telling all my friends!" — Lou DeJesus
Get it from Amazon for $39.97.
3. A Swiffer PowerMop to make scrubbing floors feel less like a punishment and more like a mildly satisfying chore. The pre-mixed cleaning solution cuts through grime, the absorbent pads trap gunk, and the power spray gives you that "I'm in a cleaning commercial" moment.
Promising review: "Great mop when you need the job done fast. Liquid refills are easy to pop in, and you can slap on replacement mop pads in a hurry (you'll know when they need to be replaced). This mop is ideal when you get one of those 'I'll see you in 10 minutes' phone calls. Just press the release button on the handle, and a spray will shoot out at the center of the path. Tip: I run the mop head under warm water first and squeeze it out before I start, as a damp mop works better. The floor is clean in no time and I like that I don't need to store a separate bottle of cleaner. My mom loves that it's lightweight, so she can carry it upstairs and mop the hall floors and bathroom tiles. Gladly recommend." — A. Mitchell
Get it from Amazon for $24.94.
4. Or a flat mop that basically cleans itself, so you don't have to touch the grimy mop head (bless). The compact design makes it great for tight spaces, and the reusable microfiber pads mean you can keep your floors and walls sparkling without hauling out a giant mop setup every time.
Amazon, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "This mop is freaking awesome! My bathroom was being renovated so I bought this to wash the walls when it was done. Works awesome! I've used it on the floor as well. I love that you can wash the microfiber cloth. I would definitely recommend this product!!!" — Layla
Get it from Amazon for $31.57+ (available in two sizes and many pad options).
5. A toilet bowl ring remover if you haven't cleaned your toilet bowl in a reaaalllllly long time. That permanent dark ring? It's no match for this pumice stone on a stick!
amazon.com
Promising review:"We bought a house that had been empty for about 15 months, and the primary bathroom toilet had a very bad water ring. I had tried about four different things to get it off of the bowl, and nothing worked. I was recently searching the internet for some new ideas, and the pumice stone came up. I used it today, and it worked great. The water ring is finally gone. It did not scratch the porcelain at all." — momof2
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (also available in packs of two and four).
6. A pressure washer to make grimy surfaces like new again, especially after an especially harsh winter. From mildew on fences to stained concrete and outdoor furniture, this will help tackle difficult cleaning tasks that you thought couldn't be remedied.
amazon.com, amazon.com, amazon.com
Promising review: "This washer was easy to set up and operate. I bought it to pressure wash the railings on my back patio, but once I saw how well it worked, I ended up doing my patio furniture, stone patio, steps, a stone wall, garage doors, and one side of my house. It took several hours to do all that, but it was really satisfying. Some of it was seven years worth of grime and some was only two years. This machine handled it all. I plan to do it all once a year to keep it looking great." — nylon21
Get it from Amazon for $199.
7. A garbage disposal cleaner that uses magic bright blue foam to rid your disposal of nastiness and lingering smells. You just plop one of the packets into the drain, and then it does its wizardly thing. After a minute or two, it's over, and your kitchen sink looks and smells amazing.
Amazon
This foam is a cleaner that helps eliminate bad smells, but it's best to call a plumber if your garbage disposal is clogged.
Promising review:"It seems counterintuitive to put a little packet down your garbage disposal to clean it, but this does actually seem to work, at least for getting out weird smells that baking soda and vinegar don't really touch. I scrub the sink down first, especially around the garbage disposal area, rinse it down, and then just follow the directions on the package. I have used it with single, large-size sinks and with double sinks — the only difference is that the double sink will have blue cleaning foam rise up the drain, which you rinse away when the disposal sounds clear again. I have tried the foaming cleaner in a can, but unfortunately, it stopped coming out of the can about 10% of the way through. Went back to this tried-and-true." — KS
Get a pack of four from Amazon for $7.60.
8. A bottle of grout cleaner to deliver the kind of transformation usually reserved for makeover shows. If your grout's gone from white to "what even is that," this miracle in a bottle will lift the yuck and leave you wondering why you didn't do this years ago.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Clean-Eez is a small business that makes cleaning products for the home.
Promising review:"I used this on my bathroom grout which, is off-white, or should i say should be off white. With kids and pets, the grout was no longer its natural color. I used this stuff the other day and it's like it was just grouted. I've been telling everyone that wants to hear how well it worked. When I get time I'm going to do my kitchen floor." — Danielle Cooper
Get it from Amazon for $19.95.
9. A carpet cleaner machine formula that acts as a deep stain remover and odor deodorizer for carpets that are covered in stains. This is an especially amazing product if you think your carpets or rugs are unsalvageable but still have a glimmer of hope that that's not true. This is the product that'll get the job done.
Sunny & Honey Store is a family-run small business. Their products are made in the USA and they donate 10% of all profits to animal shelters and rescue groups.
FYI: This cleaner is only for use in carpet cleaning machines. Here's the one they are using in the review photo!
Promising review:"I never leave reviews but this I had to! I have 10-year-old carpet that I'm trying to make last as long as I can...because kids. Who wants to spend the money to replace flooring when they will just mess it up! I cleaned my son's carpet with this for the first time today and it looks and smells SOOOOO much better than it was! Other carpet cleaning products I've used have made the carpet smell like wet dog while cleaning and this didn't! It smelled great the whole time! I'm hooked!!" — Megan Davis
Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in three sizes and three scents).
10. An under-cabinet drawer with a shelf on top so you can keep your bathroom cleaning supplies organized. Cleaning can be so exhausting, so do yourself a favor and keep your supplies organized so that you don't expel energy trying to find all your cleaners and tools.
Promising review:"These are nice pieces that helped me organize underneath my bathroom sink! They fit perfectly! After organizing everything, I was so surprised I had so much more room that I grabbed more items out of the linen closet to fill it up. I still have a lot of room left. I bought these based on the high ratings, and they hold true. (This is Brad's wife.)" — Brad J. Leahy
Get it on Amazon for $25.87+ (available in chrome or bronze).
11. A reusable roller dog hair remover that works just as well as the single-use sheet kind, but without the guilt (and cost) of having to buy new rolls all the time. No more fur-covered couches!
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"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 it 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 $24.99 (available in white or black).
12. A pack of dishwasher cleaning tablets to clean and deodorize your machine because every once in a while, the thing that cleans your dishes needs to be cleaned itself. Say goodbye to limescale, grease, and stubborn buildup! These remarkable cleaners will leave your dishwasher glistening and odor-free.
Promising review: "I have the nose of a truffle pig and can smell the slightest tinge of something in the air, so when my dishwasher starts to smell, I am the first and usually the only one in the family to notice it right away. I have tried all the usual brands to get the hard water stains and gross food smelled out. Even rinse my dishes super well. None of them work like this stuff does! I was weary at first about buying it because it was so cheap. A year's worth of cleaning tabs!! Forget Finish, Cascade, the other stuff. This stuff really works! Keeps dishwasher free from hard water marks and my dishes come out crystal clear after." — Courtney E. Delong
Get a box of 24 from Amazon for $18.95.
13. A natural, plant-based bathroom cleaner that uses the power of eucalyptus and tea tree oils to rid your bathroom of general nastiness like soap scum buildup and everyday grime. Just spray it, let it do its thing for 5–10 minutes, and then voila! Your bathroom will be sparkling clean.
amazon.com
Promising review:"This stuff is amazing!! I was skeptical at first because I had these dark stains on my shower floor that I'd never been able to get out, and I thought something 'natural' wouldn't be heavy enough for it. I cleaned half the shower at first because I wanted to see how it looked compared to the dirty side, and it did an amazing job with a little bit of elbow grease! You can see the difference." — Katherine Cheng
Get two bottles from Amazon for $15.99.
14. A set of drill brush attachments perfect for taking on the toughest stains on your home's tile, glass, grout, and fiberglass. You'll save so much time and energy thanks to these attachments, and can instead focus on doing what you do best: zoning out on the couch while watching the latest Netflix show.
The white is a soft bristle, best for wheels, carpet, upholstery, glass, and leather; the yellow is a medium bristle, best for bathroom, bathtub, shower, tile, and porcelain; the green is a medium bristle, best for kitchen, stoves, cabinets, countertops, and linoleum; the blue is a medium bristle, best for boats, pools, canoe/kayaks, hot tubs, and plastics; the red is a stiff bristle, best for outdoors, siding, brick, garage, and gutter; and the black is a hard bristle, best for grills, loose paint, furnaces, ovens, and industrial use.
Drill Brush is a small business based in New York State that makes cleaning brushes that attach to drills. It was started in 2007 by a former electrician who suffered from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and needed a way to clean without causing him harm.
Promising review:"These brushes worked flawlessly. I have a 24-year-old home that has not been remodeled yet. The master bath shower tile and fiberglass shower pan were in pretty bad shape. We tried many types of cleaners to remove residual soap and hard water stains with little success. As a last-ditch effort, I purchased these brushes. They worked amazingly well. Using Krud Kutter and these brushes removed every bit of the dirt and polished those tiles so that they shine brilliantly like they did when they were new. I am completely satisfied with my purchase of these brushes. They are well made and held up beautifully to the forces I applied while using them." — Tom S4TX
Get the set of three from Amazon for $18.95 (available in six colors).
15. An all-natural stainless steel cleaner that will finally remove all the grime and fingerprints from the stainless steel stuff in your kitchen. Sinks, fridges, garbage cans, ovens...they'll finally be as clean as the first day you moved in. Aaaand it smells like lavender!
You'll also get a large microfiber cloth with the bottle.
My former colleague Brittany Ross says, " I don't know what kind of fairy dust this plant-based spray is hiding inside, but it made my mucked-up fridge sparkle within a MINUTE! I was skeptical when I first sprayed it onto my fridge because it took a second for the streaks to start fading, but lo and behold, there was *zero* residue left behind after a super brief wipe sesh. Once I saw how downright dazzling my fridge looked, I decided to put it to the ~real~ test — my filthy dishwasher. Again, a minute of buffing with a microfiber towel was enough to make it look like a brand new appliance, and it worked wonders on the greasy stainless steel edges of my oven, too."
Promising review: "This is a miracle worker on stainless. I have tried everything to get my stainless to shine like it should, even the home remedies, which do NOT work — sorry but they don't. This stuff is the best I have tried. I follow a girl on TikTok that recommended it and she has been right 100% on her Amazon recommendations. She nailed it again. You will love this stuff." — Amazonwoman
Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (also available in packs).
16. A bottle of Angry Orange Pet Odor Eliminator for when your favorite furry friend makes one or a dozen oopsies on the floor, and you can't seem to get the stink out. Using orange oil, it gets rid of the lingering smell and replaces it with a lovely one with notes of citrus.
www.amazon.com
Angry Orange is a small biz that was founded in 2014. They provide pet-related household cleaning supplies like stain removers, mops, and more.
Promising review:"This product is amazing!!!! We have a Rottweiler pup and a Bichon pup, and our house was feeling the PAIN! I tried everything and used to tell my wife, 'With all the science and technology in the world, we still can't come up with something that gets rid of the dog mark smell!' This product does everything and more. Just ordered another round. We were about to throw away some furniture due to the smell, but now, after use, we can keep it. Saved me hundreds. Well worth the money." — clayton s tonkin
Get it from Amazon for $17.96+ (available in two sizes and two scents).
17. A pack of slow-release toilet cleaner tablets that'll bleach-blast away stubborn gunk like rust, grime, limescale, and whatever else is lurking in your tank. One tablet will help deodorize and descale with every flush, so your toilet stays fresher, longer, with zero effort from you.
amazon.com
Each tablet can continuously clean the toilet for up to 15 days with 20 flushes a day.
Promising review: "I like this product and I have ordered it again. It is effortless to use and it cleans well. The toilet bowl remains spotless without brushing and the water remains clear. There is the smell of bleach though, which some folks may not like, no problem for me. Product is effective and is good value for the money." — G. P. C.
Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $16.99.
18. Or a pack of all-natural toilet fizzies for anyone who'd rather skip the bleach and instead go the botanical route. These are basically bath bombs for your toilet, made with essential oils like eucalyptus, lemongrass, or peppermint — so your bathroom ends up smelling more like a holistic spa and less like .... well, a bathroom.
MW Botanical / Etsy
MW Botanical is a woman-owned small business based in California making all-natural products for the home.
Promising review: "Pleasant oder, cleans the toilet well. Like it. Will order again when I run low. Highly recommended." — Andrew Stoeppler
Get it from MW Botanical on Etsy for $8.10 (available in seven scents).
19. A sink plunger to easily unblock all the grossness that's been building up in your drain for who knows how long. If you live in a home where the water drains reeeeaaaallllllly slow, this product can probably dislodge all the blockage in just a few pumps.
Promising review: "I needed it for my bathroom sink. I doubted it would work as easy and fast as advertised but it did. I thought I'd really have to work it for it to work. Super impressed. Took like, a minute, if that. Piece of advice though, if your sink has that overflow drain, put a sponge or something over it. Water and gunk will plunge out of the hole, and if you aren't expecting,g it will have a mess." — A
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in small and large sizes).
20. A set of Swiffer-compatible reusable microfiber mop pads that are way better for the environment (and your conscience) than the single-use ones. Plus, they work wet or dry. When they need to be cleaned, throw them in the washing machine and they'll be good as new.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
They can be used wet or dry and on basically every type of flooring and even drywall if you're so inclined. Since they can be thrown in the wash, one microfiber pad can replace up 100 single-use pads. These are only compatible with the Swiffer Sweeper and WetJet models.
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
Get a set of two from Amazon for $9.99.
21. A microfiber blinds duster with spaced-out fingers to tackle several blinds in one swipe. Never again will you need to clear your schedule when you just want to clean your window treatments.
Promising review:"I love this product!! It works fantastic! I am a housekeeper for several private homes. My least favorite job is cleaning window blinds! I have used every method there, but the job is still very time-consuming. The main reason it takes so long is you must clean each and every slat separately to do the job right. Not anymore! With this product, you can clean two slats at once, and it cleans them the first swipe! The microfiber is the key to getting all the dust, and the design of the product makes it super easy! PLUS, this tool can be used on different types of blinds because it is flexible! I have used it on wooden shutters, plastic vertical patio door blinds, and horizontal metal 'mini' blinds. Additionally, the microfiber 'sleeve' that fits on the tool is washable, and it comes with five of them, so it's a real value. Being reusable and with so many to use it should last a long time before they all completely wear out! This product deserves 10 stars!" — Sandy D
Get the brush and five microfiber sleeves from Amazon for $6.99.
22. A set of machine-washable microfiber cloths that'll leave glass and mirrors streak- and lint-free after you clean them. The pack comes with green and blue cloths, and to use them you get the green cloth damp and then clean whatever surface you need to, then use the blue cloth to wipe away whatever residue is left over — no need for cleaners, this method successfully cleans your surfaces with just water.
Microfiber Wholesale is a family-owned small biz that started in 1946. Since then, the brand has evolved into an e-commerce business that creates and distributes high-quality cleaning products.
Promising review: "We have a huge bathroom mirror that is very difficult to clean. I've used everything from a number of cleaners (various foam and sprays), vinegar, microfiber cloths, newspaper, paper towel, etc and nothing would get it completely streak free until now! Best purchase ever." — Sandy O.
Get a pack of eight from Amazon for $16.98.
23. A length-adjustable pet hair broom because it's that time of the year when dogs and cats are shedding more than usual, and you need something to rake it all up. Because the bristles are rubber, it picks up way more hair than a traditional broom.
Want more info? Check out my coworker's FURemover Evrilholder broom review. You'll learn a thing or two AND enjoy some very satisfying hair removal photos!
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 A
Get it from Amazon for $10.76+ (available in four styles).
24. A pack of bottle-cleaning tablets for making cleaning your water bottles and tumblers less of a headache. If you're the person who just "rinses out" their reusable water bottle with water and a squirt of soap, your bottle is likely filled with unwanted bacteria and grime.
amazon.com
These tablets put in all the elbow grease so you don't have to. No scrubbing, stirring, or washing — simply drop them in your bottle with some water, and *poof* all the bacteria and grime is gone. They're also biodegradable, chlorine-free, and environmentally safe.
Promising review:"I have achieved this level of clean by hard scrubbing with tons of vinegar and baking soda, but these tablets just pop in and do all the hard work for you. I drink tea every day, but it stains my cup. This has infinitely extended the life of my mugs." — Erin Green
Get a 12-pack from Amazon for $7.99.
25. A Bissell multipurpose portable cleaner capable of tackling the most aggressive messes and stains, all without the annoyance of a cord. Like the tens of thousands of positive reviewers, I, too use this to take on heavy duty cleaning. Everything from deep cleaning my rugs to taking care of major messes on my kids' carseats. It's truly a lifesaver!
Promising review:"This vacuum is amazing. I first heard of it on TikTok, where people were using it to clean their stairs, mattresses, car seats, etc., and from the videos, it already looked amazing. But considering how dirty my dining chair cushions were, I was a little bit apprehensive and skeptical. I purchased the item and used it on my chairs for the first time, and the results were SO AMAZING. Best vacuum I've ever used. I even bought a second one!" — Davina
Get it from Amazon for $123.59.
26. A pack of sweeper slippers so you can rid your floors of dirt, hair, and grime while keeping your toes nice and warm. Prepare to be swept away by how much time you'll save.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I absolutely love these! I kind of bought them as a joke. I hate wearing socks, shoes, or slippers, but I also HATE dirty feet. These were the answer I was looking for! They are lightweight on my feet...hardly notice I'm wearing them, and by golly they pick up the dust and dirt that our dog leaves behind! They also wash very nicely. We always wash in Tide, and these looked brand-new after being washed. I'm very pleased with my purchase!" — Tim S.
Get five pairs from Amazon for $15.99.
27. A 100% natural oven scrub kit for keeping your oven clean, especially if it's in constant use. Don't get a headache spending all day using a toxic oven cleaner; it's just not worth it.
Everneat is a small business based in Connecticut that makes natural cleaning products and tools.
Promising review: "I've been trying to clean my nasty oven door for the past five years. Tried everything I could find, but it remained an embarrassing mess. Ten minutes of moderate scrubbing yesterday with Oven Scrub and it was 90% clear. Another five minutes today, and it looks like new. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED." — Andy Bea
Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in two scents or unscented).
28. A microfiber spin mop that'll make sure your mop isn't soaking wet before you use it, which will dramatically cut down on the time it takes to not only clean your floors but also let them dry. Plus, it's machine-washable, has an automatic wringer, and is designed in a shape that will reach into small spaces and corners. Truly, this mop does all the work for you — all you do is dunk into the water and push around the floor.
Promising review:"Ashamed to say, but I barely ever mop the floors. I purchased this O-Cedar Mop and Bucket based on the great reviews. I am here to add a 5-star review of my own. This mop and bucket not only cleaned my floors, but it made the entire process easy (and dare I say fun?). I did the entire first floor of my house, both tile and wood. Then wanted more fun, so I scooped up the handy handle and carried it upstairs, where I continued on to the bedrooms and bathrooms. I don't want to go on and on, but this mop picked up lots of dirt and grime and then popped easily into the washing machine. It came out great. The swirly thing makes all the difference. It wrings out all of the excess water, so it's easy to mop without using too much muscle, which I do not have. And the mop heads are short, rather than long mop heads, which only make for heavier mops. If you're on the fence, go for it, you'll agree." — LauraP320
Get it from Amazon for $34.96.
29. A pack of washing machine tablets to make sure your machine is in good enough shape to keep your clothes clean. All you do is throw one tablet in and it cleans deep inside your machine's pump, valve, tub, drum, agitator, filter, and hose.
Promising review:"My washer was smelling and had grime inside the seal that wouldn't come off even when I tried to scrub it off, so I used one of these tablets in the wash. It worked like magic. Not only did it clean the washer very well (the water looked so dirty during the cycle), but it also got rid of the smell! I will keep using these as recommended." — Esta
Get a six-pack from Amazon for $11.98.
30. A dryer lint brush because you'd be shocked at how much lint is residing in your dryer gap and exhaust port. Using this will speed up clothing drying time and help prevent lint buildup.
amazon.com
Promising review:"Works perfectly for scrubbing the stuck lint out of the insides of your dryer. Everyone who owns a dryer should have these, they're basic safety equipment. Clean that lint, and reduce fire hazard and make the machine more efficient. They're long enough, strong enough, and just flexible enough without being too flexible." — Winged Wolf
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $7.99.
31. A grooming glove that turns shedding season into a bonding experience instead of a fur-covered fever dream. With soft silicone tips, it gently removes loose hair while giving your pet a soothing massage — like a spa day they didn't even know they needed.
amazon.com, amazon.com
From Buzzfeed contributor AnaMaria Glavan: "The glove is super comfortable and using it couldn't be more foolproof: just put it on and run your hands through your pet's fur. That's it! The silicone grooves pick up so much fur with ease. Like, my dog looks close to hairless. HOW is he shedding so much!?!? After a few runs, I found that I would have to remove fur from the glove before continuing (you can pick up the fur with your other hand or run the glove under some water — either works) but it's no biggie. The silicone actually makes it really easy to keep this clean. We got Rockie when he was five and he'd been riddled with skin issues and allergies, so I was pretty nervous to use anything that could potentially aggravate his conditions. However! Not only does this *not* bother his skin, but he…loves this. A lot. He starts snoring after exactly two run-throughs on his back. Also, his coat looks SO shiny after each use! TL;DR: this is one of those inexpensive add-ons that any pet owner should have on hand."
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
32. A broom and mop organizer you can put on an empty wall to keep all your cleaning tools neatly organized and off the floor. They'll also be out of sight and out of mind, which is exactly what you need if you hate cleaning and don't want to see the tools it requires on an everyday basis (I'm talking about you, broom that's shoved in the space between the fridge and the wall).
amazon.com
Promising review:"Love this broom/mop holder. So nice to save space and stay organized. Holds them so firm and flat to wall. Also has hooks that fold out as needed. I recommend this to anyone looking for space-saving storage!" — Jaclyn
Get it from Amazon for $16.97 (available in four colors).
33. A screen cleaner kit that comes with a spray and microfiber cloth to remove all those smudges and dust particles that have been on your TV and computer for way too long.
www.amazon.com
The spray is free of alcohol, ammonia, and harmful phosphates. You can use it to clean any screen, including HDTVs, PC monitors, tablets, laptops, smartphones, and more!
Promising review:"A miracle! I've been looking for this product all my life! I have a nice 42-inch smart TV that I hate cleaning. Every product I used left streaks everywhere so I'd use more and rub and rub...Make sure your screen is cool and spray an ample amount on the cloth provided, and smear it everywhere. Then flip the cloth and rub it off. I think this is truly one of the greatest breakthroughs in modern history. They give you a huge can of this stuff and a quality cloth." — Paul Wedero
Get it from Amazon for $19.97+ (available in three sizes).
34. A touchless stationary vacuum to suck up all the debris you sweep near it. Simply place it on any smooth surface and let it do its thing. No more bending over with a flimsy dustpan.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
An indicator light will turn on to let you know that the canister is full, and then you can remove the canister and dump the debris in the trash.
Promising review:" I absolutely love this magic floor sucker. I live in the Rocky Mountains with four large dogs and two cats. It makes sweeping not so bad and much more manageable. You just sweep it to the vac, and it sucks it up. LOVE IT." — Mary C
Get it from Amazon for $149 (available in three colors).
35. Some stove burner covers that'll make cleaning your stove top so much easier. Instead of having to basically disassemble your stove to clean out all the gunk under the burners, just remove these covers, wipe 'em down, and boom! Like new.
amazon.com
Promising review:" These little covers are just fantastic! Easy to cut and form to the burners I need, super easy to wipe off, or quick rinse if need be. They WILL burn if too close to the flame, but it doesn't burn beyond what is touching the flame. I bought them because my guy, though a FANTASTIC cook and baker, is just a tad messy on the stovetop, lol. T his has helped me keep the stove top much cleaner. I have reused the original four of these for a year and finally just tossed the two most used/dirtied and replaced them. These are just amazing and very durable!" — AngsChaos
Get an 8-pack from Amazon for $10.99+ (available in black or silver and three different sizes).

Promising review:"Unbelievable! My daughter just moved into her first home. She thought she would have to paint her brick fireplace because of the heavy soot stains that had been there for years. We applied the product twice and put in a whole lot of elbow grease, but what a difference! It's a messy process, but well worth the time and energy." — MM

Disneyland's Blue Bayou: Is This Restaurant Worth It?

If you've been on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland Resort, you've probably wondered about the restaurant that's literally inside the ride at the very beginning of your journey. As your boat glides through the slightly foreboding but kind of romantic bayou, you can spot guests eating at a Southern-inspired restaurant. Dark with beautiful twinkling lanterns, a huge willow tree, dressed up waiters, and a 'patio' overlooks the waters of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride — THAT is Disneyland's infamous Blue Bayou restaurant. It's a restaurant full of intrigue and mystery. And if you're anything like me, you've probably REALLY wanted to try eating here. ^ The view from my boat on Pirates of the Caribbean. Recently, the Blue Bayou has been popping up all over my FYP. As one of the more elegant and pricier sit down restaurants at Disneyland, people are wondering if the price point is worth it, what the vibes are actually like, or if the food is any good. *Editor's note: BuzzFeed was provided part of this trip free of charge; however, we were under no obligation to give a positive review. The writer paid for this meal.* Well wonder no more! I FINALLY got to dine at the Blue Bayou and it was quite the culinary and sensory experience. Here's how it all went: Reservations at the Blue Bayou get snatched up pretty quickly but guests are able to make a reservation online or through the Disneyland Mobile App up to 60 days in advance. I didn't have a reservation on a recent Disneyland trip but I kept checking the Disney app and was lucky enough to get a table for two the day before. Tucked away on a cute street in New Orleans Square, the Blue Bayou exterior blends in perfectly with the other store and shop fronts. The restaurant entrance is right beside the exit of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. My reservation was for 1pm and I would have been seated right away but I requested a 'waterfront' view, so I waited about 30 more minutes. After all, I wanted the FULL Blue Bayou experience here. We were seated in prime spots (aka right by the water with a perfect view of guests about to meet their destiny on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride) and two things stuck out to me: the cooler temperature and moody lighting of the restaurant. It was cool. You didn't need a jacket but it is distinctly cooler than other indoor rides or buildings at Disneyland. I'm not sure why this is — maybe to protect all the pirate animatronics from the hot weather? All I knew was that I was thankful for an escape from the steamy, sunny outdoors. And second, it was dark in a spooky but also kind of romantic way. The table candle lights, strung up patio lanterns, "fireflies" in the bayou, and occasional shooting star — it was a vibe for sure. I felt completely immersed in this new environment, that I kind of forgot I was in the middle of Anaheim and not in New Orleans. Sitting by the water only enhanced this experience. Back to the main event, the meal! First our drinks arrived. I ordered the Sweet Peach Iced Tea with Rum ($18.75) and my friend ordered a glass of prosecco, Le Grand Courtage, Grand Cuvee ($13.00). The Sweet Peach Iced Tea was perfectly sweet, slightly tart, and very refreshing. A little on the pricier side but I would definitely recommend it. By the way, the Blue Bayou is one of the only restaurants you can order alcohol at in Disneyland Resort along with Carnation Cafe, River Belle Terrace, Cafe Orleans, and Docking Bay. Then our appetizers came: we ordered the Crab Cakes ($18.00) and the Heirloom Tomato and Watermelon Salad ($15.00). The crab cakes had a nice spice to them but they were a little dry. And personally, I like to eat my watermelon plain and by itself. I ordered "A Taste Of Blue Bayou" which included an appetizer, entree, and dessert for $79.00. This appetizer was the Fig and Prosciutto Salad and it was delicious — probably my favourite appetizer. The prosciutto was perfectly salty, balanced out by the smoothness of the Manchego cheese and herbed vinaigrette. Loved all the different textures in this. For our main, we split the Cajun Surf and Turf. And it's a good thing we did because this thing was I say too big? This came with bone in ribeye, clams, mussels, prawns, clams, potatoes and cajun butter. This dish was filling and decadent to say the least. The ribeye was cooked well and a little over seasoned. The prawns had a lovely smokey flavour to them— but some of the natural flavour was drowned out by the amount of sauce on it. The cajun butter was melt-in-your mouth delicious. Again, this dish was huge and we didn't even come close to finishing it. Hand included for size context. And finally, our dessert came. Now THIS was chef's kiss. It was the Brown Butter Banana Cake and it was the star of the meal. The cake is ooey gooey, caramelly, and soaked in bananas foster sauce. It's topped with candied walnuts and vanilla ice cream. I'm drooling just thinking about this! This would have gotten extra brownie points if the cake was warmed up. In total, our meal for two came to $154.90 before tip. That included two drinks, three appetizers, one main, and one dessert. I think next time we would order our own mains so that we could try more of the menu. The food was good, the drinks were great, the service was fantastic, and the atmosphere was one-of-a-kind. Overall, the best part of it all was the ~vibes~. When you're on a ride at Disneyland you're taken to a whole new world. Eating at the Blue Bayou was a beyond immersive experience where you get to indulge all your senses, especially your sense of taste. One of the most fun parts was watching the boats of riders pass by as we were enjoying our meal. They'd often wave at us and we'd wave at them. We were part of their ride experience and they were part of our dining experience. Mid bite, I'd hear screaming in the distance as the boats descended into their pirate adventure! Or some riders would scream at us, "What are you eating?" Hot tip: ride the Pirates of The Caribbean before you eat at The Blue Bayou for an extra immersive experience. Would I eat there again? Absolutely! What about you? Would you give it a try? Let us know your favourite foods to eat at Disneyland Resort.

This Sabrina Carpenter approved sleep mask is the perfect gift for college students — and I've found a low-cost dupe

Offering an immersive blackout to help you sleep through your nocturnal flatmate's late night study sessions, a silk sleep mask delivers better quality rest with a touch of luxury. And this sleep mask comes Sabrina Carpenter approved — she gave us a peek at her Dusty Gold DROWSY sleep mask from Amazon on Instagram. Assumed it was copious amounts of espresso keeping Sabrina so vibrant? Nope, it appears to be the quality sleep she's getting from using an eye mask. It's the perfect gift for loved ones that are flying the nest. Affordable yet indulgent, the DROWSY sleep mask will keep you in the good graces of any freshman, thanks to a silky finish that protects the skin and hair overnight. There's no getting around the fact that the DROWSY mask packs a premium price tag. But if you're on a tighter budget, I've found a low-cost alternative that leaves quite an impression... ATreebay Mulberry Silk Sleep Mask: from $19.99 at AmazonBeen working late, cause you're a student? This affordable sleep mask from ATreebay helps block out distractions, so when you snuggle up in bed you can fall asleep faster. There are fewer color options than the DROWSY mask but for fans of the Dusty Gold look favored by Sabrina Carpenter, the ATreebay in taupe is an eye-catching alternative. Made from 100% mulberry silk and just $19.99, it's a budget-friendly buy that we'd consider a college student sleep essential. Before I went to college I never bothered with an eye mask — post-college, I can't sleep without one. College dorms and off-campus accommodation tend to be overrun with people who aren't on your sleep schedule. That means lights going on at all times of the night, leaving you sleep deprived and talking "Nonsense" (yes, we are leaning into Carpenter song title puns!). You might also find (as I did) that the sun doesn't play ball with your new accidentally-nocturnal schedule (although "Please, Please, Please" stick to a better sleep routine than my college self.) You don't have to be the "Sharpest Tool" to see the benefits of a sleep mask and the DROWSY is more than just your ordinary mask. Made using pure mulberry silk, it's earned a celebrity fan in Carpenter... (swipe to slide five and take a peep at her nightstand.) While the multi-layered design promises to contour to your fact to block out light, the cloud-like finish should sit as light as a feather on your face as you sleep. DROWSY Silk Sleep Mask: from $79 at AmazonWith back to school coming up, you're likely a "Busy Woman" or man, so I'll keep this "Short n' Sweet." The DROWSY Silk Sleep Mask features triple layer padding that contours gently to the face while creating a blackout effect, so you won't be kept awake by inconvenient lights. The adjustable band allows it to fit all head sizes, while the oversized eye pads ensure no light can seep in. Keep an eye out for price drops at Amazon, as we've spotted up to 25% off certain color choices in recent weeks (and there are 13 colors to choose from — no "Slim Pickins" here.) Or you can head direct to DROWSY, where there's 30% off when you buy a second sleep mask.
