1. A jar of The Pink Stuff , a TikTok-famous cleaning product you can use to restore so many things (both indoors and outdoors) back to practically new condition. It's so good, you may just be tempted to part ways with every other cleaning product you own.
It shouldn't be used on plastic or acrylic surfaces, highly polished stainless steel, or hot/warm surfaces. You can use it on cooktops and grills, but just be sure to do so once they've cooled down! Plus, this is vegan! Promising review: "Oh my gosh — this stuff is a life-changer! Used it to get my fiberglass shower totally clean. Nothing else would get it done, and this stuff brought my shower back to near-new in one use.
We’ve since cleaned a weird, chalky film off our garage door, removed wall markings, and cleaned my storm door. We’ll never be without a jar (or three) of this stuff. Worth every penny.
" — Nancy F. Get it from Amazon for $5.97 .
2. A bottle organizer for providing a nice little area to keep you and your fam's water bottles when they're not being used. YouCopia is a woman-owned small biz that sells kitchen storage products! Promising review: "This organizer is amazing!!! I always kept our surplus water bottles in the small cabinet above our sink.
Every time I took one out, three more would fall out. I am so glad I found this! It took 20 seconds to put together and forced me to purge some bottles I’ve been hoarding for far too long. Buy this immediately!!!" — RT17 Get it from Amazon for $19.
99+ (available with two or three shelves). 3. A pack of dishwasher cleaning tablets so the machine you rely on to clean the things you use to eat isn't gunking them up even more.
These tablets remove odor-causing residue and help get rid of lime and mineral build-up that naturally occurs inside dishwashers. The tablet is designed to last throughout the entire wash cycle and is recommended for use about once a month. These are safe to use in stainless-steel tubs and plastic tub dishwashers.
Promising review: "After using this product, I am happy to report that my $5 investment saved me over $500. I was ready to replace my dishwasher due to super cloudy glasses, residue, and just not getting clean. Then, I became aware that the water softener was no longer doing its job, so I had the rental company replace it.
Dishwasher performance improved somewhat. I decided to do two more loads before deciding to purchase a new one. Then, I saw a product test review for Affresh in a magazine.
I was ordering some stuff from Amazon anyway, so I added that to my order. When it came, I tossed one of the tablets into the bottom of the full machine and ran the regular cycle. I did not expect the results I got! My glassware, which I thought was permanently etched and ruined, came out like new.
Same with cutlery. The difference is unbelievable. I will use this faithfully on a monthly basis, as recommended.
I can even put it on my subscribe and save order, so I will get a new pack every six months. I am amazed!" — Sheila Get a pack of six from Amazon for $8.99 .
4. An over-the-door cabinet organizer to give your hair-styling tools their own tidy little storage spot that's not the same drawer where you keep your toothpaste and dental floss. Promising review : "This product did exactly what I needed it to.
Before, all my items were in a drawer, and the cords were a pain, but this metal baske t minimized clutter, kept things organized and separate, and also looked nice. It fits two of my blow dryers, a flat iron, and a curling wand. The bars are adjustable, as well (just use the twisties it came with to secure them in place).
Worth the buy!" — Alyssa Jewell Get it from Amazon for $19.99 . 5.
A portable carpet and upholstery cleaner that boasts strong spray and suction so cleaning stubborn stains will feel effortless. Messes left behind by pets or small children shouldn't mean permanently ruined carpets, furniture, or car interiors. Promising review: "I wish I would have ordered this sooner.
It has removed stains that I thought were permanent. When my son moved out, I discovered an old red wine stain under his bedside table that had likely been there for years. No trace of it remains.
So easy to use!" — Kristi Rector Get it from Amazon for $81.49 . 6.
A cutlery drawer organizer to help consolidate all of your forks, knives, and spoons into one fabulous little space-saving tool. Promising review: "I thought this would be handy and help with space management in a small apartment. It turned out to be absolutely perfect.
It keeps the silverware clean and stores a lot in a very small space . I love it. I got two because I inherited my grandmother's silverware, so there are two types of forks and two types of spoons, and I wanted things separate and organized.
Two organizers fit side-by-side in a standard apartment drawer. After getting these, I picked up the knife organizer, and it’s just as handy and useful." — Magpie Get it from Amazon for $9.
69 . 7. A pet hair remover you simply swipe over surfaces covered in hair from your furry bestie.
It saves more time (and is a heck of a lot easier) than fussing around with a vacuum and lint rollers! ChomChom Roller is a Massachusetts-based small biz creating an eco-friendly, reusable alternative to sticky lint rollers. Promising review: "Where has this been all my cat-loving life? Sticky rollers work fine for clothes, but this is the only product that has ever COMPLETELY removed all the cat hair from my bed. I have a long-haired, 20-pound tabby, and if you run your hands up his back a few times and fling the hair everywhere, it looks like it's snowing — he never stops shedding no matter what I do.
A fter using the ChomChom, I can put on a black dress and roll around on my bed and not get a single hair on me. It's absolutely amazing. Everyone is getting one for Christmas, even if they don't have a pet.
I don't care; it's THAT good." — DH Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in three colors).
8. An under sink organizer featuring a sliding basket that'll make whatever clutter you have going on down there a lot easier to deal with. Need a sponge and cleaning spray? No problem! Easy peasy! Right there! 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." — Brad J.
Leahy Get it from Amazon for $25.87+ (available in two colors). 9.
A pack of vacuum bags to store clothing items you're not planning on wearing in a given season so there's less clutter in your closet! These don't create the same amount of bulk other storage bags would, so they're good to store under your bed! These bags are made with anti-microbial materials, so you don't have to worry about things like mold, mildew, or bacteria building up. Plus, it comes with a free travel pump! Promising review: "These are the best storage bags ever. Nothing else works as well or is as effective.
I've tried them all, and these are by far my favorite." — CCD Get a pack of six from Amazon for $19.99 (available in other pack sizes).
10. A bottle of Wet & Forget , a super simple cleaner you just spray in your shower/tub once a week. The best part? You don't have to scrub.
..like.
..at all.
Just rinse it the next day and you're good to go. I know, I know, I'm crying tears of joy, too. Promising review: "Had months of mold and mildew built up in the tub, as we are unable to bend or kneel.
This product works as advertised. Spray and rinse for two consecutive days, and completely clean and shiny! Smells clean, too. Will definitely reorder!" — Sheri D.
Get it from Amazon for $19.19+ (available in two scents). 11.
A set of drawer trays for keeping the contents of your desk, dresser, and even your token junk drawer more orderly. The six-piece set comes with (2) 3"x3" bins, (2) 6"x3" bins, and (2) 9"x3" bins. Promising review: "Great product! I bought these to put in my nightstand drawer to store small things, as the drawer is very deep.
I've got ChapStick, hand lotions, a small flashlight, and other bedside items in them, so they're not just rolling around the drawer. I just bought some more for my bathroom vanity. They fit together nicely but also lift right out of each other.
The plastic is sturdy, and they came individually wrapped to keep them from scratching." — Sparkyj Get a six-piece set from Amazon for $12.99 .
12. A power scrubbing cleaning kit you can attach to your drill and get to work in making your living space look picture perfect! Useful Products is a small biz based in New York — its founder is a former technician living with carpal tunnel who started the company to create products that'll allow folks like him to clean pain-free.

The bristles won't scratch and are good to use on tubs, sinks, baseboards, fiberglass shower enclosures, shower door tracks, and porcelain. BTW the drill isn't included, but you can find a bunch of great ones on Amazon ! 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 door, everything came out squeaky clean. I'm NEVER cleaning my shower by hand again.
" — Terry Get it from Amazon for $18.95 (available in several brush stiffness levels). 13.
A container lid organizer because you've wasted far too much time trying to find the right lid to fit whichever container you're using. Been there, done that, now let's leave that in the past. The dividers are adjustable so you can customize your set depending on what size containers you have! This is also made by YouCopia ! Promising review: "I love, love, love this storage container.
Sounds silly, but it changed my life. No longer do I have storage container Jenga! No more stuff falling out of the cabinet every time I open the cupboard. Now I can stack my lids in the organizer and my storage containers fit nicely on the shelf, and I have a lot of storage containers.
I would definitely buy this again and again. Great product." — Laura Get it from Amazon for $17.
73+ (available in four styles). 14. A wood polish and conditioner for bringing your precious wooden cabinets and floors back to factory condition.
Did you just get your home redone by an HGTV crew, or are you just super good at picking out cleaning products? Promising review: "My bathroom cabinets had a lot of wear from the steam from showers and baths. I want to replace them, but I decided I would try this first. It’s very easy to apply: wait 20 minutes, then wipe off the excess.
Filled in the places where the varnish was gone and showing raw wood and brightened up the finish . Looks much, much better for an easy and cheap fix. Very pleased with this product.
" — Dog Lovers Get it from Amazon for $10.47 . 15.
A spice rack drawer organizer to make looking for your favorite seasonings super simple. Plus this is an easy way to prevent messy clutter. This is also made by YouCopia ! Promising review: "This is one of my favorite things I've ever purchased from Amazon! They are so customizable and allow you to cut them and shape them to any drawer size.
I think this will be my go-to gift for all of my friends who love cooking as much as I do! Freeing up cabinet space and having something that can so easily be rinsed off in the sink makes this a for sure buy!" — momonono Get it from Amazon for $16.99 . 16.
A pumice toilet bowl ring remover so you can easily scratch away at those yucky stains without leaving behind scratch marks in the bowl. Promising review: "I never thought I'd be this excited about a clean toilet. I had largely given up on our first floor toilet.
Nothing would take out the ring along the waterline. But I saw this product in a BuzzFeed roundup and figured it was worth a shot. Tried it this morning and oh.
my. goodness. It easily took out the ring and with some harder scrubbing, the rest of the stains/buildup/whatever the term is for the stuff that made the bowl look gross.
It looks just about brand new! Definitely worth the purchase." — Courtney Get it from Amazon for $11.52 .
17. A toilet tank cleaner that'll leave that area you never even THINK about cleaning looking good as new. And the best part? You don't have to scrub.
You can thank us later. Promising review: "I didn’t have much calcium or other hard mineral deposits in my two toilet tanks. But there was a fair amount of slimy sediment.
One treatment cleaned up the tanks about 90%. I ordered another bottle of the cleaner and gave each tank a second treatment. The tanks now look brand new! The important thing is to give the cleaner enough time to work .
I put the cleaner in the tanks before I went to bed, so it worked overnight." — Jack Get it from Amazon for $7.66 .
18. A set of shelf dividers to help you better utilize the space in your closet. Rather than cluttering all your clothing items together, use these babies to organize and manage your shirts, pants, shoes, and accessories.
As seen above, these are also great for organizing books, records, and other types of media! The dividers are 12 inches tall and can slide over any standard shelf up to 7/8 inches thick. Promising review: "I love these! They fit snugly over my shelf, so they don't shift or move around. I have a lot of handbags and it's been a mess on my closet shelf for the ones that are floppy.
I have limited closet space in a small home so my choices of where/how to store them are limited. This was the perfect solution. I plan on buying more when I get around to rearranging sweaters on shelves.
" — BarbraGenie Get a two-pack from Amazon for $17.99 . 19.
A cable management box that'll be a heck of a lot nicer to look at than an unsightly tangle of wires and a surge protector. Promising reviews: "I've been searching for something to not only hide the cord mess but protect them from my munch monster of a cat. This box, in addition to cable straps and cable wrap, has solved my cable management like magic! I highly recommend this product.
" — Lauryn Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors). 20.
A divided drawer organizer because it shouldn't take having to go on a dresser scavenger hunt just to find your favorite fuzzy socks. It comes with four sets in different dimensions so they can hold different size garments. Promising review: "I hemmed and hawed over this while it spent months on my wish list.
My top dresser drawer was full to the brim with bras, undies, socks, and tights, and I kept using the same few items that were always on top. I was afraid not all my undergarments would fi,t but finally, I had little choice and ordered this in pink. Oh my! I’m in LOVE! I feel like one of those uber-organized TikTok moms every time I pull the drawer open.
Super easy to set up and fill. If you have too many socks, tights, or undies, each well can fit more than one on top of the other. The included pieces fit perfectly in a standard tall bureau, which I had been concerned about.
Take the plunge, you’ll be super glad you did!" — Chrissquasi Get it from Amazon for $13.87 (available in seven colors). 21.
A jetted bathtub cleaner — fill up your luxurious bath, add a quarter of the bottle, and watch it work its magic by removing gross residue. It only takes about 15 minutes to clean and when you're done, you can look forward to taking the best bath EVER! Each bottle cleans about four times, and it's septic-safe! Oh Yuk is a family-owned small biz based in Minnesota that sells home cleaning products Promising review: "Works better than anything else we have tried on our 6-foot jetted hot tub. We have well water with lots of minerals.
Oh Yuk gets the crud out fast and rinses easy. Been using it for three years, and nothing else comes close." — Linda Get it from Amazon for $18.
73 . 22. A set of airtight storage containers that boast a multitude of good reasons to hit "add to cart" immediately.
For starters, they'll help keep dry food (like cereal, crackers, dried fruit, etc.) fresh, they'll keep your kitchen nice and organized (because boxes and bags strewn all over are NOT it), and they look damn good. Hello, it's 2024, we're all about the aesthetics.
The set comes with reusable labels and markers! Promising review: "No matter how many times I tried to make the package clutter in my pantry look nice, it wasn't happening. I tried the pop-top containers before, but things still got stale and were too expensive to do the entire pantry. This set was so affordable that I bought two of them and was able to finally get everything organized! I've had no issues with things getting stale, and my 4-year-old is now able to easily see, access, and open cereal or snacks when he wants to.
Definitely recommend!" — Fisch Get a set of 14 from Amazon for $29.99 (available in other pack sizes). 23.
A mold and mildew spray great for using on a plethora of surfaces both inside and outside your home because let's be real, it's not exactly the most sightly thing to see on your shower walls and backyard fencing. 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 Get it from Amazon for $16.
99 . 24. A stain and odor remover because those messes and unpleasant smells left behind by your fur babies are no match for its cleaning powers.
An immaculately clean carpet AND a wonderful snuggle buddy? Yes, you can have both! Promising review: "I'm not going to lie. This stuff is significantly more expensive than most other available carpet sprays. You could probably buy four or five bottles of Febreze for the cost of this stuff, but the competition won't work nearly as well as Rocco & Roxie.
This stuff is AMAZING." — Brian Get it from Amazon for $19.31 .
25. A hanger stacker so you can keep unused hangers in one organized spot. When you DO need a hanger, you won't have to spend a million and one minutes untangling them.
Promising review: "Great functionality. I gather hangers as I gather dirty clothes. This stacker lives in my laundry room between the washer and dryer.
It keeps my plastic hangers under control, and I no longer suffer 'clothes hanger rage' from them getting tangled and not cooperating with me." — msw Get it from Amazon for $26.20 .
26. A bakeware rack that'll make going to grab the cookie sheet or muffin tin (or whatever it is you may need) a lot less hectic than having to go through the pile and lift up every item until you get the right one. P.
S. You can also purchase a lid holder or a combo pan and lid rack ! This is also made by YouCopia ! Promising review: "I like how easy it is to put together, and that the separation pieces are adjustable. You customize it for your own storage needs! The separators are fairly easy to move and extremely sturdy.
No more pans falling over! " — Marilee Housden Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in two colors). 27.
A shower door cleaner because, believe it or not, once upon a time, you used to actually be able to see through your glass shower door. Cool as it might seem to have frosted doors, it's actually quite dirty and we think you should give it the clean it deserves. 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 Get it from Amazon for $11.65 . 28.
A set of Shoe Slotz space saving units that'll take your collection of shoes from an overwhelming messy pile of who knows what to basically resembling the aisles of a DSW. You'll *gasp* actually be able to see your shoes. Promising review : "These things are genius.
I had my closet redone and asked for the back wall to have cubbies so I can easily display my shoes, but I either underestimated the number of shoes I have or overestimated the space that was in the closet and I couldn't display them all. I bought a few packs of these and now I have extra space. I guess I'll have to go out and buy more shoes now! " — Hercules Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $29.
99 (also available in packs of 20 and 40). 29. A plant-based stainless-steel polishing spray with a microfiber cloth to make your stainless-steel appliances look as if they were just delivered to you yesterday.
Therapy Clean is a family-owned small biz that sells cleaning products with safe and readable ingredient lists in the loveliest scents. Comes with a microfiber cloth! This is good for use on stainless refrigerators, stoves, sinks, dishwashers, microwaves, grills, and other appliances! Promising review: "I live in an apartment. The sink is about 35 years old and has become badly stained and scratched from neglect and indifferent care.
This has made a noticeable difference. This sink will never look brand new again, but your product removed, I would say, about 80% of the stains without any extraordinary effort and put a really polished look on the sink. It is gleaming and actually looks very clean for the first time since I have lived here.
I am betting that with continued and consistent use of Therapy cleaner, it will continue to improve. Thank you for a most excellent product." — David Brennan Get it from Amazon for $19.
95 . 30. A makeup organizer that'll make for a great spot to store your cosmetics, skincare products, brushes, sponges, and more.
Now, you won't have to dig through a messy makeup pouch just to find the lipstick color you want. BuzzFeed contributor AnaMaria Glavan is a fan of this makeup organizer. She says: " This nifty little organizer looks beautiful, can fit ALL of my everyday makeup, and (drumroll please) it keeps clutter at bay in my bathroom — which is extremely tiny, BTW.
I can fit so 👏 damn 👏 much 👏 inside of this four-drawer thing. Here are all the products that I currently have in there: 32 lipsticks, six blushes and bronzers, two large highlighter sticks, one foundation bottle, three concealers, two contouring sticks, two rollerball perfumes, two primers, and the bottom drawer contains so many lip pencils, eyeliners, and eyeshadow sticks that I actually didn't even bother counting (but I'm going to guess AT LEAST 30 of them, I swear).* If you have A TON OF MAKEUP (which I do), then you may still have to store some extra stuff in your bags — but either way, this container holds SO much.
But the real winner winner chicken dinner here? I have easy access to all the makeup I use every single day and can see all of it at once. I don't have to dig around the bottomless pit that is one of my many, many makeup bags anymore — I just have to open and close a drawer ." Need more convincing?
