Promising review: "I had no idea cleaning a Keurig was a thing. I bought these because I saw them on TikTok, believe it or not. I wanted to give it a go because my Keurig isn’t that old, and I didn’t think it would do anything. IT WORKS SO WELL! My Keurig wasn’t as nasty as some I’ve seen, luckily. I would highly recommend — keeps everything running correctly and clean." —Lauren

"When I used this in my Keurig, I couldn’t believe how well it cleaned! My coffee tastes so much better now! The instructions are very clear to understand … you use it like you are using a coffee pod and then just run the machine again to rinse it out. There was no smell. The speed of cleaning was very fast. Definitely worth the money. It’s only six pods, but I figure if I use one pod a month, I will get six good cleanings before I purchase more, although I will order another box to keep on hand!" —Mary H.

Promising reviews: "This pet hair roller is the best I’ve used, and seems well-made too. My cat has really fine short hair, and this picks the hair up off the chair cushions, pet bed, and bed comforter really well." —Spikey Racer

"This hair removal system is great. Our dog is a heavy shedder, hair all over. This hair/fur removal is fast and quick to use. I love not having to use our vacuum daily, just run over the obvious black fur on light-colored furniture." —MB of Troy

Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in two colors).

FryAway is a US-based small business specializing in planet-friendly cooking waste solutions.

Promising review: "So easy to use and makes cleanup fast." —Melanie McLaughlin

"I will always keep this stocked in my house! My husband sent me a TikTok — I know I know — and I thought it couldn't hurt to try it out. I loved it after the first night! I could easily remove the hardened oil and throw it out." —Roberta

Get it from Amazon for $12.99.

Promising reviews: "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.

"Great for stubborn stains. We had some turmeric that stained our sink, and I had tried everything to clean it. This did the trick INSTANTLY." —Carla B

Get it from Amazon for $5.97.

Promising review: "I saw this product on TikTok and decided to try it out for myself. The name doesn’t lie — spray it on, shut the bathroom door, and in a few hours, the shower is 100 times cleaner. Usually, I’ll let it sit overnight, and by morning, the visible grime on the shower is gone, including soap scum. I’ll usually let the shower water rinse the residue out and then will take a bucket just to get everything off the shower walls. It is a bit slick if you try to get in the shower without rinsing the residue, but otherwise, it’s a worthy cleaning staple in my house." —Tara D.

Get it from Amazon for $19.19 (available in four sizes).

The heavy-duty formula works on glass, ceramic, induction, radiant, and halogen stove tops.

Promising reviews: "When we moved into our current rental, it was clear that the previous tenants didn’t maintain the glass cooktop of the stove. I’ve tried many other products and a lot of elbow grease to clean it myself, but nothing has helped until this product! I saw it featured on a recent BuzzFeed article about superior cleaning products and I’m so glad I did. This is the only thing that worked removing years of baked-on filth." —James

"The best! I have an electric stovetop, and of course, everything that gets spilled will be solid by the time I get around to cleaning it. This stuff gets the gunk out fast — the scrubber is a big plus, as I’ve used this before with just paper towels. Well worth the extra money" —michelleh

Get the kit on Amazon for $13.98.

Promising review: "I really like this product. I just spray the dishes and rinse. The nozzle creates a fine spray and is well made. It makes my dishwashing quick and sparkling clean. I think the money is worth it. The bottle size is just right for me as it does not run out quickly but is not too heavy. I live alone so I am not sure if it would be good for lots of dishes. I have used it on oatmeal, biscuit dough, and it works a charm." —Tammy Goodwin

Get a spray bottle and three refills from Amazon for $18.33.

Promising reviews: "This little device is great. Super simple. Fill to the lines with vinegar and water, nuke for seven minutes, let sit for two minutes, then wipe clean. My embarrassingly super gross microwave wiped completely clean with a couple of paper towels. Highly recommend." —UglyPetty

"I'm embarrassed to say I hadn't cleaned my microwave in about six months. It's an awful task. I ran Angry Mama one time, wiped it down easily, and then ran it one more time to get it detailed and really clean. Highly recommend using it more often than once every six months for a super fast, super clean microwave!" —Kelsey

Get it from Amazon for $8.99 (available in four colors).

FYI: The drill is not included, but you can get a highly-rated one here!

Promising reviews: "This was SO helpful with having to scrub the hot tub! Couldn’t imagine having to do it without this! HIGHLY recommend!!!" —jay malixi

"I originally bought these brushes from a TikTok review, and they have been the best! I hooked them to my drill and used them with cleaner to scrub my shower! It took less time to clean everything! They are strong and held up to all of the chaos and cleaning!" —Katrina

Get it from Amazon for $18.95 (available in six colors).

These work on almost any surface: leather, fabric, furniture, hardwood, pans, metal, WHEREVER. And! They'll clean up grease, oil, tar, dirt, ink, lipstick, nail polish, food, and a whole lot more.

Promising review: "Only within a couple of seconds of using these wipes, I get a clean result. I am a busy mom of three and need something quick that ACTUALLY works. This product is amazing. I would highly recommend. Renting an apartment, it's hard to clean the walls without removing the paint. This gets the job done 100%." —Sirena

Get a pack of 90 from Amazon for $14.98 (available in nine sizes/packs).

Promising review: "We rented a home, and the toilets were disgusting. Someone suggested a pumice stone, and let me tell you, it was amazing!! I tried bleach, every toilet bowl cleaner available, and countless hours of scrubbing to no avail...but this stone worked instantly! I will be buying several more!! The stone does dissolve when scrubbing so you need a couple. I was able to do almost two toilets completely that looked awful with one stone!!" —Crista

Get it from Amazon for $11.30.

The cellulose and cotton cloths are soft when wet and slightly abrasive when dry so you can even use them to scrub down particularly stuck-on messes.

Promising reviews: "I bought these because of a TikTok review, and they are wonderful. I have wooden countertops and can’t use cleaning spray on them, so I just use these with water to clean them. I gave one of them to my boyfriend, and he is now obsessed with them! By the way, these are different and way better than ShamWow. No comparison!" —RandomLadyinTexas

"They hold the perfect amount of moisture. They can be as wet or dry as the job you’re doing requires. I LOVE them on stainless appliances and inside of the refrigerator. They hold enough heat from warm water and enough moisture to dissolve the smeared stuff kids leave on the doors. It’s fast. I have them in my bathroom for quick wipe-downs or pre-wipe-downs before a deeper clean. It’s an extra step, but it saves time because it picks up EVERY piece of lint or dust." —madcow

Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in eight colors).

Promising review: "I ordered this to get rid of the smell of the garbage disposal and was so pleased with the results. I simply followed the instructions on the package and was amazed at how fast and easy it was to use and the smell was gone." —NAS

Get four packets from Amazon for $3.67.

Good for use on ovens, broilers, and barbecue grills. Only takes about five minutes to spot clean.

Promising review: "Holy moly. We moved into our home about 18 months ago, and I haven’t cleaned our gas oven since then. I sprayed it before bed, woke up, and cleaned that bad boy in less than 30 minutes. It melts away everything — I mean everything. I was skeptical but I will never ever have a dirty oven again!! So easy and fast after it set all night!! I plan on cleaning my oven once a month! Woohoo, adulting at its finest!" —Tierni

Get it from Amazon for $8.98.

Each cleaner comes with a trial size of Bissell's Spot & Stain Formula, which is also available on Amazon for $24.22!

Promising review: "I’m 66-years-old, and I have a Samoyed with a funny (haha) stomach. Let’s put it this way: he pukes pretty often. This green machine works like a dream on these stains. I heard it’s great on car seats. I can’t wait to try it. Lightweight too. Fast and easy." —Leah Schmitz

Get it from Amazon for $123.59 (available in three styles).

Promising review: "I admit I was skeptical. I have tried everything to clean my stainless steel appliances and nothing has worked. I saw this product reviewed on BuzzFeed, and the before pictures looked a lot like my appliances. If the after pictures were real, then I needed to try this. The cleaner arrived with a large, thick microfiber cloth, and I got to work. The results were quick and amazing! This cleaner removed fingerprints and smudges immediately, and the one-step process made the job so fast! Long-term water spots were dulled slightly, but I am hoping with regular use, these spots will become a thing of the past. I wholeheartedly recommend!!! It really works!" —Sue V.

Get it from Amazon for $19.95+ (available in two sizes and packs of two).

Promising review: "I would sweep and often leave the pile of dirt and hair next to the broom. I know it's not hard to grab the dustpan and finish the job, but for some reason, I hate it. This thing solved my problem, and it makes it so fast to quickly sweep up, that I do it more frequently. I only wish it was less expensive so I could have one in several rooms. I LOVE this seemingly unnecessary machine!" —Rats

Get it from Amazon for $149+ (available in seven colors).

Get two bottles and a brush from Amazon for $39.95.

Take a look at this TikTok on pet stain removers!

Rocco & Roxie is a small business that sells all kinds of pet supplies like grooming products, toys, treats, and cleaning products.

Promising review: "I was a little skeptical of trying a new product, but I am glad that I did. I started with the worst pet stain in my house to really test this. Sprayed the center of the stain, waited the recommended sitting time of 10 minutes (I scrubbed with a carpet brush also), blotted with a towel, and bam! The stain was demolished. Couldn't be happier with the product. This stuff works like a charm, and I am very pleased with it. The scent isn't overpowering. Pictures from start to finish for proof that this stuff really works! I would also recommend a carpet brush for really bad stains such as mine, as it helps work the product into the carpet so it can do its magic." —Ricky

"This stuff is fast-acting and totally effective." —Emmy

Get it from Amazon for $19.31+ (available in two sizes).

Promising review: "This product was just the perfect little helper for fast and on-the-go cleaning of my car. It smells good for me and is very easy to use. Not sticky at all. I stretched and rolled it 10x prior to using it. It doesn't get hard or dry. Just put it back in the container after using it." —Amethyst

Get it from Amazon for $6.99.

Emma Lord, a BuzzFeed Shopping writer, had this to say, "An embarrassing confession: I do not have a pet, but I shed like nobody's business. My hair gets so ingrained in the carpet that a vacuum truly does nothing for it, so I often was just unrooting clumps of hair from the floor with my hands (sorry for the visual). I bought this broom and it immediately started pulling up GOBS of hair. My carpet, like, genuinely changed color (turns out the pink was supposed to be much pinker, whoops). Anyway, do with that semi-horrifying information what you will — you can read my full review of the pet hair broom for more deets.".

Promising review: "We use this at an ANIMAL HOSPITAL. After getting one and seeing how fast and easy it gathers pet hair, sand, nail clippings, and everything else, we got a second one for our other exam room! " —Ven Brady

Get it from Amazon for $12.98+ (available in different styles).
