Axios Nashville readers share their tips for enjoying Tennessee parks
Welcome to Day 5 of Tennessee Trailheads: This week, each edition of Axios Nashville explored a different aspect of the parks where we picnic and play. Visit Axios Nashville to read other installments in the series. A winding one-lane road in East Tennessee leads to one of the hidden gems of the state park system. Lamar Alexander Rocky Fork State Park, tucked away in the Appalachian Mountains about 30 minutes outside of Asheville, North Carolina, boasts "some of the most epic views" in the state, according to Axios Nashville reader Mary Elizabeth L. What she's saying:"They're even better if you find yourself on a summit as a light rainstorm comes to an end and fog settles around you." Why it matters: Readers like Mary Elizabeth steered us toward the best of our public parks this week. Their suggestions shed light on the kaleidoscope of experiences those parks offer. There are mountain parks like Rocky Fork, where you can climb cliffs or soar down twisting bike trails. And there are also urban parks that offer free concerts, cultural festivals or lunch-break oases. The big picture: As Mary Elizabeth says, "whatever you're looking for, Tennessee's parks can probably help you find it." We've collected some of our favorite responses to build an ultimate parks guide. 🚴 Shelby Park and Bottoms: Several readers singled out one of Nashville's most popular parks, calling it Nashville's answer to Central Park. (As Katie L. noted, the broader footprint of nearly 1,300 acres is actually much larger than Central Park.) "The best long bike ride is all the way through Shelby Bottoms Park in East Nashville and over the Cumberland Pedestrian Bridge onto the Stones River Greenway in Donelson," Meg M. says. Randy R. suggests the back deck at the nature center as "a great place for yoga and meditation." 🏛️ Centennial Park: When Nashvillians think about parks, this has to be one of the first that comes to mind. It's home to our replica of The Parthenon and is on the National Register for Historic Places. The free Musicians Corner concert series in the spring brings together music, food trucks and beer, plus "an annual chance to see the Nashville Symphony for free," Nancy F. says. Jennifer A. fits right in with the Axios Nashville team: "My favorite outdoor lunch spot in Centennial Park is sitting among the columns of The Parthenon enjoying a #12 Beach Club from Jimmy Johns." 🌳 Long Hunter State Park: The 2.1‑mile, paved Couchville Lake Loop is one of the most popular walking trails in the state. The Hermitage-area park has a choose-your-own-adventure vibe, says Danielle N. "From the same parking lot you can access a longer, primitive [trail], a story walk for kids, and a playground," she says. "Really all of the trails at Long Hunter are amazing, giving hikers a wide variety of terrain, flora and water views." 😱 Frozen Head State Park:"We went during a wet spell and it was like a Smurf village," Emily B. says of the park, which is near the Historic Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary. "Mossy rocks, mist, storybook-like." 🗓️ Plan ahead: Mayor Freddie O'Connell encourages residents to check out the crowded calendar of city park events like night hikes, guided birding. "It's a great way to explore parts of the city. It doesn't draw me to one favorite park," he tells Axios. "This summer, we liked spending time at the creek at Beaman Park and having a spot in the shade," O'Connell adds. "From a playground standpoint, I love taking our family to Mill Ridge Park." 🧺 Stay overnight: Greer Tidwell, the state's deputy commissioner for the Bureau of Conservation, tells Axios he loves the historic cabins built in several state parks by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s and '40s. A handful of cabins have been refurbished and are available to rent. "When people ask me what I suggest they do if they want to go to a park for the first time, that's one of the things I encourage them to do." "It's like walking into a piece of artwork."

Kelcie's Horse Treats Champions Thoughtful Innovation to Meet Equine Wellness
In the equestrian world, where horses are cherished partners, what they're fed particularly matters. Owners and trainers understand that a treat isn't a mere reward but a reflection of care, nutrition, and trust. Yet, the market for horse treats has long leaned toward the sugary side, relying on molasses and fillers that may be tasty but far from healthy. Kelcie's Horse Treats, a family-run brand, has emerged after recognizing this gap. Its mission is to create low-sugar, all-natural horse treats that animals and their caretakers can feel good about. Interestingly, the brand's story began with an encounter in a pub in a town in England. That's where Kelcie's founder and CEO, Kevin Nairne, a UK-based corporate professional with a career in IT, met Mary Elizabeth. She's a lifelong horsewoman whose family is deeply embedded in the professional show jumping community. From that moment, Kevin's life shifted. Marrying into a world of saddles, stalls, and showgrounds, he transitioned from technology to the tack room, driven by love and an unexpected passion for horses. The idea behind Kelcie's originated from Mary Elizabeth's observation of the lack of nutritious, clean treats in the market. "Many were loaded with sugar and additives," says Kevin. "They're unsuitable for horses that need to maintain optimal health and performance." The founder then brought his corporate mindset to the table and treated this realization like a business challenge. He formed a think tank of top grooms, veterinarians, and seasoned equestrians, asking one question: "What should the perfect horse treat look like?" The result was Kelcie's Pumpkin Spice Horse Treats. "Even the fussiest horses liked Kelcie's immediately," Kevin shares. "When we tested our first batch with our 25 horses at our home in Wellington, Florida, every single one of them, including the pickiest eater, devoured them instantly. In that moment, we knew we had made something special." The treats are made from 15 carefully selected natural ingredients. Pumpkin was chosen as the main ingredient because of its digestive qualities, turmeric for its anti-inflammatory properties, and anise were added to increase the palatability. Independently laboratory tested, the treats contain less than 9% (non-structural carbohydrates) sugar , making them ideal for horses with Cushing's and other sugar sensitivities. The treats undergo a unique extrusion process, which optimizes digestion and nutrient absorption, enhances shelf life, and prevents mold. Kelcie's Horse Treats Developed with sport horses in mind, Kelcie's products give every horse owner peace of mind, from spirited ponies to retired companions. "Our treats have no preservatives, no artificial additives, just fresh ingredients that are sourced and manufactured in the U.S. that support digestion, healthy coats, energy, and overall wellness," Kevin emphasizes. From its humble beginnings, Kelcie's took bold steps to establish itself. It partnered with a traveling showcase retailer to exclusively launch the brand at major US horse shows for several months. It put the treats directly in front of trainers, riders, and grooms at the heart of competitive circuits, resulting in immediate traction. Then the pandemic happened. While many businesses faltered, Kelcie's remained agile. Early traction and strong word of mouth carried the brand through. It shifted to online distribution and later secured a game-changing agreement with a leading distributor, allowing it to scale while preserving its handcrafted approach. Kevin's background in business was crucial. While he had no experience in equine nutrition at the start, his ability to build relationships, solve problems, and focus on quality helped Kelcie's grow. He brought the same attention to product development that he once applied to corporate solutions, insisting on nothing less than the best. Laura Kraut, a leading figure in international show jumping, whose Olympic pedigree speaks volumes, endorses Kelcie's personally , noting that even her most accomplished horses love the treats. That kind of recommendation doesn't come lightly. The reviews echo her sentiment. One shared: "She's a picky treat eater, which seems silly, but she enjoyed these [Kelcie's treats]. I was pleased with the ingredients, so it felt like a win-win." Another customer, writing about a rescue horse recovering from trauma, said, "I bought these for my sister's horse, Tamarindo, who is a rescue recovering from burns that previous owners inflicted on him. These treats have been great at gaining his trust while providing health benefits as well." With this reputation, it's hardly surprising that Kelcie's influence has expanded to the national stage. The brand has been named a participating sponsor for Wellington International, an event connected to Wellington's winter equestrian season, a prestigious event that attracts the best in the sport. Kelcie's aims to grow its legacy in the equestrian world. With a commitment to health, a personal story rooted in love and instinct, and a bold vision for what horses deserve, the brand continues to redefine how the industry thinks about horse treats.

Ewan McGregor links arms with newly blonde wife Mary Elizabeth Winstead as they depart his West End show My Master Builder
Ewan McGregor linked arms with his wife Mary Elizabeth Winstead as they left the opening night of his new West End play My Master Builder. The actor, 54, cut a casual figure as he left the theatre, sporting a dark grey jacket along with black jeans and a white T-shirt. Mary Elizabeth turned heads in a lime green midi dress with a low cut neckline which she wore with gold heels. The actress showed off her dyed blonde locks for the evening and added to her look with a simple silver necklace. Ewan and Mary Elizabeth fell in love on screen and off when they first met on the set of the FX series Fargo in 2016, when they both joined the cast for season three, playing each other's love interests. At the time of the shoot, McGregor was still married to Eve Mavrakis, and Winstead was married to Riley Stearns. The actor, 54, cut a casual figure as he left the theatre, sporting a dark grey jacket along with black jeans and a white T-shirt But eventually, both of their marriages ended and the co-stars began dating soon afterwards. They worked with each other again on the superhero film film Birds Of Prey (2020), which is based on the DC Comics team the Birds of Prey. The couple welcomed their first child together, a son named Laurie in June 2021, after nearly four years of dating. Also in attendance on opening night was Rosamund Pike who stepped out to support Elizabeth Debicki who also stars in the show. The Hollywood star, 46, turned heads in a black pinstripe suit, paired with a sleek black satin shirt. She teamed her stylish ensemble with classic black pointed heels and carried a black handbag. The beauty shielded her eyes with tortoise shell sunglasses and accessoried with dainty pearl drop earrings. Meanwhile, Elizabeth, 34, showcased her quirky sense of style in a black and white playsuit. Ewan and Mary Elizabeth fell in love on screen and off when they first met on the set of the FX series Fargo in 2016 Directed by Michael Grandage, My Master Builder is playing at the Wyndham's Theatre in London from April 29 to July 12. The cast all appeared in high spirits as they posed for snaps together on the red carpet. Directed by Michael Grandage, My Master Builder is playing at the Wyndham's Theatre in London from April 29 to July 12. The new play is set on the eve of Independence Day in the Hamptons. It follows Elena Solness, a publishing magnate, and her architect husband, Henry, as their marriage is disrupted by the arrival of Mathilde - a former student of Henry's with whom he once shared a deep connection. It explores themes of love and vulnerability and draws inspiration from Ibsen. Rosamund's outing comes just the day after she put on a very quirky display in furry Simone Rocha heels to attend the Hallow Road UK special screening in London. The actress, who stars alongside Matthew Rhys as the lead in the new thriller flick, commanded attention in a bright red floor-length dress. Rosamund's outfit was recently seen on Simone Rocha's Fall 2025 Ready to wear runway and featured a chunky dark metal chain and padlock. The garment featured a ruffled neckline which created an oversized cap sleeve design over her shoulders. But it was her shows which caught the most attention as she graced the red carpet in Mary Janes, which were covered in brown fur. She kept the accessories to a minimum and opted for a pair of large grey flower earrings and wore a bright red lip colour. The film sees two parents enter a race against time when they receive a distressing late-night phone call from their daughter after she caused a tragic car accident. Jumping in their car, they race to get there before anyone else stumbles across the scene. As they head deeper into the night, disturbing revelations threaten to tear the family apart. It is set to be released in the United Kingdom and Ireland by Universal Pictures on 16 May 2025. The actress recently opened up about overcoming self-judgment, the power of storytelling and even her romantic side in a recent interview. Rosamund - who played iconic personalities as physicist Marie Curie and journalist Marie Colvin - detailed the often 'traumatic' process of playing real life character. 'I've played a lot of real people, and that can be traumatic – going deep into someone's soul to try and portray them honestly and live their life more than your own,' she told PORTER. 'I need to step away from the cauldron, as it were. I need to go back to reality.' Flaunting an array of impressive biopic roles throughout the years, the English star said about balancing a hectic schedule: 'I'm longing for time to be idle at the moment.' Yet, the Golden Globe winner admitted she is keen to shift into comedy, adding: 'I'm so romantic. 'I'm excitable, and I love to laugh, but I convince in the dramatic, serious roles. People don't see the girlishness in me.'

We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Now you have no excuses to keep putting it off. 1. A box of sink disposal cleaner designed to scrub away grunge and odor-causing build-up from sidewalls, blades, and under the splash guard with its oh-so-satisfying foaming formula. Tap to play GIF Promising review:"This is an essential for anyone with a disposal. Like seriously! A lot of funky gunk collects in there, that you can't even see. It's also dark and moist for icky stuff to grow. You HAVE to keep it clean. And THIS is super easy to clean it out! And you will be amazed how much better the smell will be (that I am sure you don't even notice until it's clean). It's also pretty cool looking when you do it! BLUE FOAMMMMM!" — J. Crumley 2. A jug of Wet & Forget Shower Cleaner that'll work to remove all the mysterious buildup on the floor and walls of your shower. Best of all, no scrubbing required! You can literally spray it, forget about it, and the grime will begin to erode and disappear down your drain. Promising review:"Photos don't lie! This stuff works! We have used just about every product available — we steamed, scrubbed, scraped, and power-washed our shower walls. None worked. Bought this cleaner on a whim, and after the first night of spraying just one wall, I bought two more bottles. The buildup just peels off the walls. At first I was embarrassed to post pictures, but I had to share how well this cleaner works." — Mary Elizabeth 3. A pack of Keurig-cleaning cups because, despite all the deliciousness that comes out of that glorious machine, there's likely a whole lot of grime and gunk hiding on the inside that has no business being in your morning coffee. Promising review:"I bought this product because the needle in my Keurig 2.0 keeps clogging, causing inconsistent brew and taste. These cleaning cups fixed both of my issues and I especially liked that it was really quick and easy to use. I put the cleaning pod in and ran one cycle, then took the pod out and ran a rinse cycle to clean out any leftover grinds. FAST, EASY, and GREAT results. VERY HAPPY!" — Corey West 4. A pack of dishwasher-cleaning tablets because, yes, your dishwasher does need to be cleaned occasionally despite the fact that its literal job is to wash the things you put inside it. These tablets are designed to penetrate, dissolve, and remove odor-causing residue that accumulates inside your dishwasher over time, as well as remove lime and mineral build-up. Using Affresh tablets once a month can prolong the life of your dishwasher and make it more effective at doing its job: cleaning your dishes. Promising review:"I am skeptical by nature and have an older machine that was stained from years of use. We have very hard water in our region which makes it even more difficult to clean things. These tablets work like magic — got rid of years of hard water deposits with one try. Truly impressed. You can bet this is going to be a monthly routine from now on." — Amazon Customer 5. A pet hair remover that'll help you keep your furniture clean and clear of all the unwanted fur that's been building up for weeks. (OK, months? YEARS??) Promising review:"We live in a household that contains two humans, two dogs, and two cats. It's a real Noah's Ark furnished with a black sectional couch. Our dogs absolutely hate the vacuum. So much so they will attack the cleaner head with their vicious bite even before we power it on. This makes the task of cleaning our couch extremely unpleasant and nearly impossible. Thanks to Chom Chom, we no longer have this problem! With a simple, quick, SOUNDLESS sweep, we're able to keep our couch pet-hair-free in blissful peace. This tool does an amazing job picking up pet hair but not so much with crumbs. We were so impressed, we gifted these for all of our pet-loving friends." — AnonM 6. A pack of bottle-cleaning tablets that make cleaning your water bottles and tumblers less of a headache. If you're the person who just "rinses out" their reusable water bottle once a month (or year) with, well, more water, your bottle is likely filled with unwanted bacteria and grime. 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 of the bacteria and grime are gone. They're also biodegradable, chlorine-free, and environmentally safe. Promising review:"I have achieved this level of clean by scrubbing hard using 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 Fleming 7. A genius humidifier tank cleaner since, um, have y'all ever seen that sludge and grime that accumulates in the basin of your humidifier!?!? Yeah, well, it's nasty. This lil' thing will help take care of that while looking like a super-cute fish just swimming around! 8. A dryer lint brush, because even though you clean out the lint trap *every* time, there's likely SO much more hiding in your dryer gap and exhaust port. This tool makes it easy to get all that yuckiness out and will leave you feeling like your clothes are extra clean the next time you dry a load. 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, reduce fire hazards, and make the machine more efficient. They're long enough, strong enough, and just flexible enough without being too flexible." — Winged Wolf 9. A bottle of Puracy Natural Laundry Stain Remover that's, ahem: vegan, gluten-free, hypoallergenic, non-bleaching, biodegradable, vegan, and certified cruelty-free — AND works THIS well?! I mean, talk about a no-brainer. Goodbye, stained laundry! 10. An oven cleaner to remove grime, grease, stains, and caked-on food — all in a matter of minutes. 11. A jewelry cleaning pen to keep all your prized possessions looking like they were just snagged out of the display case. Promising review:"Don't get me wrong — my wedding ring was gorgeous before. It did sparkle and still made me smile every day. using this Diamond Dazzle Stik...*oh my goodness*! After one use my ring is absolutely breathtaking! I knew my ring got dirty now and then, simply from sweating and being outside in the elements. However, I never realized just how much dinge and schmutz marred my diamond until I cleaned it. It literally took my breath away with its fiery, dazzling brilliance!" — liltreeclimber 12. A mold and mildew remover spray specifically formulated to restore your bathroom to its former glory. In your shower, tile grout, around the sink — you name it, this can clean it. You can even use it to freshen up your washing machine, too! Promising review:"I bought this RMR spray with low expectations, even with the good reviews. I sprayed a small patch in the evening and let it sit overnight. The next morning, the grout where I had sprayed was as white as if it were brand new. I decided to spray the entire wall and part of the roof. The next day everything I sprayed had no visible mold. By the third night, I was pretty much spraying everything left in the shower. This stuff is amazing." — John Werner 13. A squeezable gel grout whitener you can use in all the tight spaces in your home that may need a refresh (think caulking, tile grout, and anywhere else mildew and mold have snuck in). Genius! Promising review:"I hardly leave reviews, but I had to leave one for this product. I just received this yesterday, applied it last night, and this morning, it's like I have a brand new bathroom. I'm embarrassed to show 'before' and 'after' photos because it was so nasty; no matter how hard we scrubbed, the mildew wouldn't go away. I almost cried when I saw my bathroom this morning. Don't hesitate, buy this now, you won't regret it." — Bianca Green 14. A jetted tub cleaner because you have no idea what's hiding in those jets of yours. Better to just do the dirty work now, rather than find some unwanted surprises the next time you're trying to take a relaxing evening bath. 15. A grout cleaning pen to restore your grout tile lines and instantly take your bathroom from drab to fab. Promising review:"Best product! I wish I had thought to take 'before' pictures! My house was built in the early 1960s, and the bathroom grout was becoming discolored in spots. I had used every product on the market before buying this pen to see if I could brighten the grout, with no luck. I could have just saved so much money if I had gone with the pen in the first place! It worked throughout the shower, with more product to go! Easy to clean up and lasts a while!" — Kelli 16. A stainless steel cleaner to instantly wipe away those mysterious streaks and smudges that somehow always appear on your fridge, oven, and sink. It also comes with a microfiber cleaning cloth! Promising review:"I switched to this product because the stainless steel cleaner I had been using was no longer available and this one had great reviews. It deserves every one of them. Easy to use and leaves no streaks. If a touch-up is needed at some point, that spot will blend in with the rest of the appliance; no need to do the whole dang thing again. Highly recommended; in fact, even if the last product I used became available again, I would stick with this one." — Bethesda 17. An odor-eliminating spray designed to obliterate stains AND stenches. Your whole "I'll clean it later" approach only works for so long, until a nauseating smell starts wafting through your home... Promising review:"Unbeknownst to us, our senior cat had been peeing on two brand-new large shag area rugs. The first one I gave up trying to clean and purchased a new one. I just realized last week she has been peeing on another shag rug. It's the worst smell ever! I can't keep purchasing new rugs until she dies. After scouring Google, I found that this product kept being mentioned as the best enzyme cleaner, which I never knew was a thing. My order arrived at 6 p.m. today and we went right to work. By 6:30 I was almost in tears, the smell was gone! I can't believe how good it smells and I am so thankful for this product!" — J. A. Merryweather 18. A set of drill brushes for anyone who's seriously looking to kick their cleaning game up a notch. They're great for cleaning things like tile, grout, door tracks, and tops?! OK, so the drill is NOT included. This is just a set of three brushes that attach to your drill, or this one you might wanna buy. Promising review:"I bought this on a whim because my walk-in shower is just a pain to clean. I'm 51, and I guess I've just been old school with how I clean, so I was hand-scrubbing it for years. The FIRST time I used this to clean my shower, it took five minutes AND it scrubbed my shower cleaner than it has been in years. In the corners, the floor, the glass came out squeaky clean. I'm NEVER cleaning my shower by hand again." — Terry 19. A Scrubbing Bubbles cleaning stamp to *keep* your toilet shining bright, without ever having to get too far in there with a nasty ol' cleaning brush. Tap to play GIF Scrubbing Bubbles / Scrubbing Bubbles 20. A blind cleaner brush because little did you know, those lil' plastic things can get suuuuper D-U-S-T-Y! Amazon, Promising review:"Where has this tool been all my life? This is a quick, inexpensive way to clean vinyl blinds. The tool is so easy to use that we have added the chore to my 9-year-old son's list. We also use it on our metal indoor heat/air vent. Love that the tool comes with washable replacement dusters." — mastermom Price: $6.99 21. An eco-friendly hard water stain-remover that'll get rid of pesky soap scum and residue coating your shower. How can you feel clean after a quick rinse if the shower itself isn't clean?! 🚿 Promising review:"We tried everything to get rid of hard water stains and nothing worked. We were getting our house ready to sell and our tub and sink were a mess. We tried this product and it worked immediately, restoring everything to like new. It was fast and really worked! We even used it to clean our glass stove top. It was amazing how clean it got things. I have a bad back and have to be careful about scrubbing things and it takes no effort to use. We use it in our new house and love it!" — Bradley 22. An AirPod cleaning pen so you can quite literally dig out your own earwax and restore the sound quality of your earbuds. Wow, do I love living in the 21st century. Promising review:"Saw these on a TikTok video and took a chance. I ordered three for different family members and boy am I glad I did! This product is fantastic! It does exactly what it says it will do. The brush is phenomenal in cleaning out the little grates on the speakers of my phone and AirPods. There is a picker that you can use to get big chunky earwax out of your ear pieces and the long skinny wand thing reaches down into my charging case and gets all the junk out of there. This is a win-win-win!" — JMilwaukee 23. A FlexiSnake designed to go where no living human should ever have to dare to go: deep inside your shower drain. There's no telling WHAT lives down there — but nevertheless, this snake will eat it all up, so you can get back to taking showers without having to stand in several inches of water. Promising review:"I don't write many reviews, but when something blows my mind like this, I have to! Not only did this remove an enormous amount of hair from my drain, it took less than 30 seconds to do so! I didn't really read the instructions, but it's pretty straightforward. Stuck it in the drain, cranked the handle, pulled it out. Voilà, no more hair! Buy it! You won't be disappointed." — Linsey Walker 24. A shower door cleaner, because those hard water stains are giving Bates Motel vibes, and it's time to finally get them nice and clear again. Promising review:"This product works beautifully. I tried a lot of products to remove the hard water from my glass shower. I have to admit the first time I used it with a cloth it was not very effective. The second time I used a nonabrasive sponge for glass, it turned out beautiful just like the first day the glass was installed." — EJP 25. An all-natural bathroom cleaner free from fumes and synthetic dyes that *won't* give you a crippling headache every time you need to give it a good scrub. Promising review:"I have an old shower/bathtub. I tried name brand shower cleaners and bleach to try and clean the soap scum off the tiles and tub. I had no luck and I would cough and get sick because of how strong the smell was. I thought I would try this to save my lungs. I sprayed my entire shower and left it for about 15 minutes. Came back and rinsed off the walls and they were shiny! I've never had such a clean shower. The smell is amazing and subtle. All I smell is tea tree and it didn't affect me at all. The price is also a good deal since the bottle is pretty large." — Amber Erwin 26. A two-pack of reusable mop pads so you can say goodbye to the wasteful, disposable ones. Not only can you toss these in the wash after use, but it also allows you to use the cleaning product of your choice — especially important if you have pets in the house! Promising review:"I wanted to reduce waste with disposable pads and I was pleasantly surprised by these. This photo was AFTER I cleaned the floor with the disposable pad! I was able to get a super clean floor, spots were easier to clean up, and it didn't sound like it was scratching my floors. This was easy to use, didn't use more cleaner then the disposable pads, and got my floor cleaner. Definitely gonna but more if the two I got ever wear out." — Riley 27. A Clorox toilet wand that comes with 16 refillable heads, so you can just stick it in there and let it do its magic *without* needing to keep a gross, stinky toilet brush in your bathroom. Promising review:"You ever look at your toilet brush in disgust and resentment? How's a dirty used-up brush sitting in your throne room? You clean your bathroom, but then you put that sucker down in its place, and it's just like, mocking you. It's never truly immaculate. Never knowing true cleanliness. Fear no more. Now you can shine the porcelain throne and not have to worry about a used-up toilet brush mocking your clean, sparkling bathroom. Gone are the days of breathing in dirty poop particles from the reusable potty-cleaning brush thingy. Clorox Toilet Wand is the answer to your prayers if you want an easy, deep-cleaning, toss-away-after-you're-done type contraption for that porcelain throne of yours. Fast, cheap, and easy. Just we like to clean." — Juliana 29. A TikTok-famous, machine-washable microfiber spin mop that represents what I would call true *MOP MAGIC.* With a hands-free wringer, splash guard, and millions of microfiber strands that can cut through dirt *without* harsh chemicals, I'm not sure what else you could ask of a mop. This thing is the GOAT of cleaning house. O-Cedar/YouTube Promising review: "I had had it with my broken basic mop and bucket. I tried to just get a dollar store Swiffer to get us by, but that wasn't cutting it at all. With three boys and a dog that makes his rounds on all the furniture and every exposed corner, I had to do something. 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 Price: $34.97 30. A miracle carpet cleaning solution to use in a carpet cleaner machine and lift allllll those stubborn stains that have been staring back up at you for months and months. Plus, this doesn't have any harsh chemicals that'll make your kids sick (whether they're canine or human). Promising review: "I have a dog and two young boys, and I'm constantly cleaning the rug and sofa. I have tried other name-brand cleaning solutions, vinegar solutions, Resolve, and nothing works as well as this. All the other ones have a weird smell that almost just mixes with the bad smells and makes it worse. This has a very clean and fresh scent and actually removes the odors!!!! Works well on carpet, rugs, and sofa upholstery. I use it in my upright carpet cleaner and small portable carpet cleaner. The best!" — momj Price: $17.59+ (available in two sizes and three scents) 31. A portable Bissell Little Green upholstery cleaner that'll leave you nothing short of *shocked* when it magically restores your dirty, paw print-covered furniture and carpeting right before your eyes. 😲 Promising review:"I bought this to clean my upholstery in my home. We have dogs who rub up against our couches and toddlers who spill A LOT so things can get quite messy. This little machine is perfect to clean up spills, or just keep our furniture looking brand spanking new. I could not believe how amazing everything looked after using this, and how disgusting the dirty tank was after I used it. This machine is super simple to use, easy to store, and lightweight enough to easily move from place to place. I love this thing." — Marina B. Price: $99.99 32.

A watermark removing cloth because you're always spilling drinks down the side of your nightstand (that just so happens to be a family heirloom) and you need to get it back in shape before your mother comes over next weekend and discovers your reckless ways.

These wipes are nonabrasive, so they're safe to use on smooth surfaces like car exteriors. Promising review:"I think these wipes are made out of magic because they can clean just about anything with very little effort! One wipe cleaned my ENTIRE BATHTUB, including the hard-water buildup and some residual soap scum. The wipe stayed wet for the entire use, and there was absolutely no sweating involved. I hate cleaning, but I was so pumped about the tub, I took wipe number two to my hood vent, and good golly, it's like it's brand-new. I've told everyone I know to buy these." — JenM Price: $14.98 35. A miraculous little bottle of Quick N Brite Fireplace Cleaner to blast away all that soot, smoke, creosote, and ash from your fireplace. 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 Price: $19.99 36. A Dawn Powerwash spray formulated to cut through the toughest grease and grime to leave your dishes, countertops, and glass looking better than when you bought them.

I can spray it and leave it to sit in the sink and come back later and wash. I can also spray my glass-top stove and let it sit, wipe it down, and it's just as shiny as the day it came off the showroom floor, there's a lot of uses that I found for the spray, it does save money." — gina Price: $16.88+ (available in two sizes and three scents) 37. A handheld Oxo microfiber duster you can run around the house with to remove dust from every table, shelf, and fan blade and feel like the Main Character acting out a cleaning sequence in a rom-com at the same time. Promising review:"I truly hate to dust, but also hate a lot of dust around. I saw these dusters featured online and figured I'd give them a try. They are really great. I just dusted in the downstairs floor, including my study and computer area, keyboard, screen, and all. Easy peasy. I haven't washed the covers yet (I have two), but hope that will work as well." — Judy Rae Price: $11.99 Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.
