23 Target Products That Clean And Organize For You
A shower cleaner you can spritz and forget — it does the hard part (aka fighting mold and mildew) while you go live your life. No scrubbing, no gloves, just clean shower vibes on autopilot. Promising review: "Huge fan of this product. We have a marble pebble shower floor with lighter grout, and the grout had to be cleaned (scrubbed) all the time due to discoloration. I use this product twice per week, and no more problems. It smells great and works, and all you do is spray it on and walk away. Since we have a large shower, I use a 56-ounce pump sprayer, which makes it a breeze to apply." —GJPPrice: $3.39+ (available in two sizes) A Roomba robot vacuum and mop that literally does your chores while you nap, watch Netflix, or contemplate cleaning without doing it. It even empties itself. We stan a self-sufficient queen. Easily convert from an all-floor vacuum to a hard floor vacuum and mop with the simple switch of a bin. It even cleans up after itself, emptying its vacuum bin into an enclosed bag that holds up to 60 days of debris, which means two whole months of not thinking about vacuuming.Promising review: "I've had the Roomba Combo i5+ for several months now, and it's been a total game-changer. It vacuums and mops simultaneously, saving me time and effort. The self-emptying feature is a standout — it empties itself into the Clean Base so I don't have to think about it for up to 60 days. I was so impressed that I bought one for my mom. She loves it too — especially the Smart Mapping, which lets us customize cleaning schedules and zones through the iRobot Home App. It's been a huge help for both of us in keeping our homes clean with minimal effort." —TheReviewerPrice: $549.99 A hair tool organizer with hidden magnets to catch bobby pins before they mysteriously disappear into the void. Promising review: "Perfect holder for hair hot tools like a blow-dryer and straightener, with room for other things like hair sprays, brushes, etc. in the front. Looks more expensive than it was. Highly recommend!" —LucyMKPrice: $30 A five-pack of toilet cleaning tablets you just plop in and walk away from. Your toilet gets cleaner every time it flushes, and you didn't even lift a scrub brush. Promising review: "I love these tablets — they are the only ones I will use. I like that they make the water blue, and once the water turns clear, I know it's time to drop a new one in. It helps keep the toilet clean longer and of course, they last through a lot of flushes compared to other brands I have used before." —Yas3179Price: $5.79 A Dyson V8 stick vacuum that's lightweight, cordless, and basically fun to use — which is the highest compliment a vacuum can get. It's my absolute favorite bug-catcher too. Promising review: "Works amazing! I am able to do my entire house (three beds, one bath) on a single charge. Picks up all the dog hair that my two bulldogs leave around the house! Doesn't work well on big items as they can plug it up. I just used it on my wood floors, tile, area rugs, and carpet with no problems. Love that it is cordless and I can use it on my car! Attachment is great for cleaning ceiling fans! Love that it's lightweight and can be easily used on my stairwell leading to downstairs! My last Dyson that is a V7 (still have it) lasted me 7–8 years and is still going strong. Actually stuck it in the camper so I don't have to bring a vacuum back and forth between the camper and house." —HarlyandmePrice: $299.99 (originally $429.99) A honeycomb drawer organizer to make sure your socks don't keep ghosting you. No more digging, they're right where they should be. Promising review: "It's true. I LOVE these. I got two to organize my socks and undies. It's been great not to scrounge around my drawer forever looking for a match that I thought existed until a week ago (it doesn' did that happen?) 10 stars. No. A MILLION stars." —txgirlPrice: $10 A simple, but effective domed drain cover that quietly collects every last hair in your shower before it becomes a horror story in your pipes. No gloves. No snake. No trauma. Promising review: "This is the second one I have purchased. I have very long hair, and this works great to catch it and avoid clogs. I clean it after every shower. My only complaint has been that it doesn't grip in place, but generally not an issue, and it works much better than other hair catchers I've tried. It works best if you clean it after every shower and take out the drain stop if you have one — otherwise it might not drain well." —SamPrice: $11.99 Or if you're already past the point of prevention, some Drano cleaner gel to cut through hair clogs like a hot knife through butter. Seven minutes later? Flow restored, stress eliminated. Between my long hair and bathing my dogs too, this stuff has saved me more than once (and yes, I finally invested in a drain cover, LOL), so I can confirm it's very easy to use and efficient. Even with a drain protector, it's so good to keep on hand!Promising review: "I never write reviews, but holy cow did this work! Normally, I must pull out the sink stopper and dig out the gunk with a butter knife…gross, I know. But this worked so well that I didn't have to do any follow-up 'cleaning!' I would highly recommend!!!" —HappilySurprisedPrice: $6.89 A clear can organizer that keeps your LaCroix from rolling around like you're in a grocery store simulator. Stack and grab = done. Promising review: "I'm quite the organized person, and the same goes for my fridge. Everything has a place, and these are fantastic. Expensive at first if you're buying to organize your whole fridge, but it's well worth it in the long run. Can also use in the pantry if you don't want cold sodas. I have one that I use for canned soups!" —BerryHonestPrice: $14 A pack of three vacuum bags so your comforters and off-season coats magically shrink into flat little pancakes. Bonus: No folding required. Promising review: "These work great to seal in pillows, bedding, and clothes. Even if you don't vacuum out the air, you can get it pretty compact by rolling the bag." —AlliePrice: $20 for L, XL, and jumbo vacuum bags A washable liner that catches oven and grill messes before they turn into burnt-on regrets. Just lift it out, rinse it off, and bask in the joy of not having to scrape crusty cheese off the bottom of your oven. Promising review: "These last forever. I live in an apartment building where an alarm goes off summoning the fire department if too much smoke develops when food drips onto the oven floor. I give these to new tenants." —Penelope GodwinPrice: $17.99+ (originally $19.99+, available in a two pack or four pack) A pack of 10 Keurig cleaning pods so you can keep your emotional support coffee machine clean without lifting more than a finger. Just pop one in, press start, and voilà — no descaling drama required. Promising review: "This product does the job to clean out the needle and the nozzle where the beverage comes out. I use a rinse pod at least once a week, especially before drinking tea when the Keurig has been used for coffee." —RonTheITGuyPrice: $8.79 A three-tier under sink organizer that turns your chaotic abyss of bottles and cords into a tidy little tower of accessibility. Promising review: "I've purchased a few cheaper versions of these before, and you really do get what you pay for. This one is so much sturdier, a better height, and I love that it's three drawers instead of two! It helped me organize the disaster under my sink, and it holds a ton! I love that I can set things on top of it, too." —SarahPrice: $35 (available in five colors) A pack of stainless steel cleaning wipes so your fridge, oven, and dishwasher don't show every fingerprint from the last decade. Just swipe, toss, and admire that shiny finish. This is my favorite invention and I always use them before I have guests over. It is SO satisfying to wipe away fingerprints and make stainless steal appliances *literally* review: "I've tried a few different stainless steel cleaners and by one, Weiman, is top of the mark! I even use it on my sink when it's wet, and it always dries to a beautiful shine. it is the best for cleaning stainless steel and kitchen appliances!" —KatzPrice: $4.69 for 30 wipes (also available in a spray bottle) A spice system with jars, labels, and a place for everything. It practically organizes itself — and maybe even inspires dinner. It includes 28 glass spice jars and 386 review: "I like the looks of this spice rack with square jars so much that I am trying to find a place other than a drawer to display it! The metal racks are each about 12.75 inches wide. When I ordered it, I didn't realize that it also comes with 11 pages of round spice labels — 340 are pre-printed, and 46 are blank for you to personalize with with the included pen. This spice rack fits all the needs and wants!!" —TdMPrice: $34.99 (originally $89.99) An extendable brush so you can clean your shower without crawling inside it like you're in a Navy SEAL training course. Promising review: "I wish I bought this sooner!! I love, love, love this. It works incredibly well, no more back bending and dreading cleaning my shower/tub. This is amazing!" —BoymomPrice: $15.99 A sink strainer to catch rogue food bits before they pull a disappearing act down your drain and come back as a gross smell. Especially clutch if you're disposal-less and love avoiding gross hand-in-the-drain situations. Promising review: "This catches everything, and the water drains perfectly. You can flip it inside out to clean it out into a trash bag or just scoop out food debris with a napkin. Good product. 5/5." —JoSaPrice: $9.99 A set of eight tiny bins so you can finally conquer that cursed junk drawer. Everything has a place now. Even the seven random screws you're weirdly attached to. Promising review: "THESE ARE GREAT!! Because they lock together, it's not a huge deal if they don't fit your drawer not like you will have one tray sliding all over the place because it will all move together. Very audible click to know when they are locked and you need to use enough force to get them to pop together that you know they won't randomly come apart. Would totally buy this set again (probably will)!" —Scrubs_RN1209Price: $12 A pack of washing-machine cleaning tablets to give your machine a deep clean without scrubbing a single thing. You throw it in, run a cycle, and let it freshen things up like magic. Promising review: "Washer repairman said to get these because they have citric acid, which is needed when doing a wash tub cycle. Works great and makes my drum smell clean." —SoCalMomPrice: $11.29 for a five-pack A stackable wire storage basket so your pantry can stop feeling like a blackhole of crushed snacks and mystery items. Plus, it'll keep your produce from rolling into the abyss and turning into a mysterious science experiment (looking at you, onions and potatoes). Promising review: "I organized my kitchen pantry with bins and needed two big bins for the top shelf that was open in front and had side handles to store tall pasta bags and related items. These bins fit the needs perfectly! Now, I can reach into the bin to grab the dry spaghetti without everything falling onto my head. And the bins pull out easily when I want to grab a back item. An added plus is their super attractive, functional, and top quality. The white finish on the steel is lovely, and the wood handles add farmhouse charm. The bin and handles are very sturdy and strong, and the price is excellent for the usefulness, size, and quality of the bin. I am purchasing another bin today for the pantry floor to hold oils and vinegar." —CocoPrice: $20 A stove top cleaner that makes your glass cooktop sparkle like you've never made a mess in your life — even if you scorched spaghetti sauce there yesterday. Promising review: "Been using this the whole year to clean my cooktop — I always spill things and this makes it a breeze to remove any debris." —ShopperAlexPrice: $5.29 An over-the-door storage rack — it creates space out of literally thin air. Hang it, fill it, forget it — now you're a storage genius. Promising review: "Since my son's first apartment lacks storage space, this was the perfect solution for him to store food/toiletries, etc. Very easy to put together and secure to the back of his closet door. Well-made and a great product." —emjay58Price: $40 A pot lid holder to prevent that mini avalanche every time you open a cabinet. This one adds a layer of peace to your kitchen chaos. Promising review: "Who says wire storage lid organizers are just for the kitchen? They're the perfect way to keep my makeup palettes organized! They look awesome and very practical. Of course, I will be buying some more." —AbbyPrice: $14

'My new best friend': Zap up this iRobot Roomba vac/mop for a rare $100 (65% off)
What's a combo you consider a match made in heaven? Peanut butter and jelly? Bert and Ernie? For home appliance shoppers like us, it's "robot vacuum and mop." Sure, a robot vacuum in and of itself is super handy when it comes to effortless floor cleaning — but add not having to schlep a bucket of water around the house into the mix? Sign us up! Especially when one of these coveted cleaners is on mega-sale, as is currently the case with the iRobot Roomba Robot Vacuum & Mop. This rare, limited-time Amazon markdown will save you nearly 65% — talk about cleaning up! Upon consulting our price trackers, we discovered that this model has only dipped lower than this once, ever. On top of that, many robovacs without mopping features cost as much, if not more than this 2-in-1, which makes the markdown even more impressive. If you prefer straightforward appliances without a lot of tricky features to navigate, this Roomba has your name on it. It doesn't have loads of fancy bells and whistles, like detailed home mapping, but it's certainly equipped with all the essentials for keeping your floors in great shape. For starters, its four-stage cleaning system can vacuum and mop at the same time, rather than performing one task and then the other. Plus, it moves about your home in neat rows to help ensure no space is left behind. One of its most impressive assets is that it can run for up to two hours before scooting on back to its dock to recharge. And if you're inclined to use the iRobot Home App, you can schedule cleanings from afar, or even view a report of which areas it targeted. As for the mop, you can choose from three suction and water levels depending on the intensity required for the job. There's also a spot-cleaning function, so if there's a particular area that needs a little more love, the Roomba can dedicate up to two minutes to tackling that stubborn mess. Still on the fence? Here's what Amazon customers think of this multitasking machine. "I wish I had gotten this years before," wrote one satisfied user. "I had an old off-brand one that was noisy and hard to empty ... Took two whole seconds to set [this] up and have it working. I can control it from my phone and even have it set to vacuum if it detects my phone leaving the house. I have two dogs and a cat, so I mainly wanted it for shedding hair. I send it around the house once or twice a day, and it has really cut down on the hair on the floor. Easy to empty too." "My new best friend. I have never loved a product more," raved another pet parent. "I have three cats and one dog. Carpets, too. I used to think I was cleaning my floors properly until I started using the Roomba. Omg. All the cat hair I never knew [about]." "[I] use the Robot Roomba for vacuuming the carpets throughout a 1,500-square-foot apartment," shared a third fan. "It does a thorough job as it goes from room to room. It's a time-saver, which prevents me from having to do the work." "I set this thing off in one room to see how it would do," wrote a generally pleased buyer. "It did an excellent job of covering the entire surface and shut down once it had mopped the whole room. ... It cleaned for about two hours before needing to be recharged. It did about half of my house. When I rinsed the pad ... it was filthy! So, yeah, it actually mops. When I went to empty the dustbin, it was full! So yes, it vacuums too." That said, they noted, "It was a bit awkward to empty the bin compared to my old Roomba, but they give you a brush to help. And I rinsed out the water tank and dried everything off, so there was a bit of effort in unit maintenance when it was done." "Less tech is definitely better," said a final shopper. "It doesn't have a map, I can't program which rooms to go in. I think that is definitely an advantage, to be honest. My other Roomba has a lot of issues due to the app or maps or lighting. This one just bumps around and does a great job cleaning. A lot less frustration in general to use. My only issue is the voice is extremely loud and could definitely be toned down a bit." And for de-dusting higher surfaces... If you have Amazon Prime, you'll get free shipping, of course. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here. (And by the way, those without Prime still get free shipping on orders of $35 or more.) The reviews quoted above reflect the most recent versions at the time of publication.
