www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I love WD-40 products and use them for everything. I spray on shovels to keep dirt or snow from sticking, spray around windows and thresholds to deter bugs, clean Sharpies off wood and walls, and, of course, stop squeaky doors. These small direct-point application pens are great. Keep one in the glove box, my kitchen 'junk' drawer, and the house toolbox." —BBP623

2. A bulb changer, and essential for when that bulb that's been there since before you moved in finally goes out. There's no need for a step stool or ladder, as this unique tool carefully grips the bulb with adjustable stabilizers, so it stays in place and screws in evenly.

www.amazon.com

The gripper is sold individually, but you can also buy it with the pole in the same listing!

Promising review: "We have 10-foot ceilings, and one of our overhead floodlights was starting to blink on and off. I have an 8-foot ladder but rather than hauling that into the house and climbing up on it, I got online to see what I could find. I had an old 10-foot car wash pole and that worked perfectly with the bulb changer — so much easier than the hassle of a ladder. After replacing my bad light, I then wondered about changing my stairway light 16 feet up from the stairs landing. Luckily, we had bought a second-story window-washing kit a couple of months ago, which included a four-piece extending pole, so I thought I would try that out and see how it would be. It’s a little tricky holding steady that high up, but when the need arises, I think it’ll work just fine. So all-in-all, I’m quite happy with this, and it’ll make a great tool to keep stored away waiting for the next light bulb failure." —Patrick

Get it from Amazon for $19.83+ (available in three lengths and with the pole).

Promising review: "Oh my god, I friggin' love this tool. I bought this on a whim, given we bought our first house and know nothing about caring for a yard. Boy, has it come in handy. Our new house had a ton of weeds in the front yard, and this tool helped me get most of them out in no time. In fact, the process of yanking out the weeds was strangely satisfying! I don't think anyone can say that weeding is fun, but this tool made it as close to fun as you can get, especially when you see a long root along with the weed you pulled." —JG

Promising review: "My brand new LG dishwasher has stopped draining on several occasions. I recently noticed that there was an egg-ish odor and I had no clue how to fix this without hiring someone to come out for a service call and drop a minimum of $100. I bought this product, used once (put on very bottom of dishwasher) and ran without dishes. Very happy to see that the water was gone and my machine smells great.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

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-lb. 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. After 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

Promising review: "I've been looking for something like this forever. I have a hard time falling and staying asleep when there is any bit of light in my bedroom. Especially the lights on phone chargers and my fan. Stumbled across these in a BuzzFeed article and figured what the heck. They came quickly and I immediately put them to use. As the instructions state, you do have to use more than one depending on how much light you want to dim. I am not disappointed. Would highly recommend and will buy again." —Kindle Customer

I was a little skeptical because I’ve tried many things to clean my shower door with the hard-water stains and nothing really ever got it completely clean...this stuff did! I wish I would have taken before pictures. It did take a couple of applications and some scrubbing, but honestly I didn’t have to scrub hard, just used a wet cloth and this and my shower door is now completely clean without any hard water stains!

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!'

Promising review: "Our new LG washer gets a stinky smell every so often so I bought these tabs. I put one in on the clean tub setting and it eliminates the odor. I just made a T-chart with a permanent marker on the box for the months and add an X when I put the tab in for the month. This way I don't miss a month and my washer runs great." —akkeber

Promising review: "I bought this RMR-86 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.

They claimed 4500 Max psi, I would have been lucky if it even had 1000pst. I packed it up and sent it back. I immediately went back to Amazon and got myself the SunJoe SPX3000 XTI and I am so happy I did. You can feel the difference in pressure right away. I also have the tiller and this is my second pressure washer. Never going back to others SunJoe is the way to go." —GinaSue67

16. Glisten disposer cleaner to find and eliminate the gross source of the sudden smell lingering in your kitchen.

Afterward, you'll enjoy the reminiscent citrus scent and a cleaner sink!

Routine cleaning can help the disposal last longer and run smoother, so you may not have to call the plumber as often!

Back when I had a garbage disposal (I miss it), I tried out this top-seller and it was amazing to watch *and* it worked! It's created with ingredients that are safe for your drain, disposal, and septic tank, and the instructions are very easy to understand. Plus, it smells good! You can use it as often as weekly to keep your garbage disposal in tip-top condition. But it won't unclog a drain or disposal...for that, you will need to call a plumber.

Promising review: "This product is amazing. Every time I ran the dishwasher there was this horrible smell. So much that you could smell it throughout the apartment. I even started just hand-washing my dishes. But after about a week, the smell came back. I bought so many products to try and eliminate the smell, but after a couple of days, it would come back. Then I saw this product on BuzzFeed and thought to myself, why not? The first time I used it cleaned it out pretty well. Better than the other products. But then I used it a second time, and there was no smell. I'm going on two weeks of using my dishwasher, and I can't smell anything. I highly recommend this if you're having the same problem I was. This is by far the best kitchen cleaning product I've ever purchased." —khrystyne torres

Therapy Clean is a family-owned small business creating eco-friendly, cruelty-free cleaning supplies.

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

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "I moved to a new (well not exactly new — the building is about 50 years old) NJ apartment three years ago and I loved it then and still love it today. But there's one serious issue at the time I moved in: my toilet tank. Three years ago just for curiosity's sake I lifted the cover and I nearly fainted after what I peeked inside. It seemed the tank was never cleaned since it was first installed. I tried to clean it out using vinegar. No use. Scrub it with Comet? Forget it. Straight bleach? Worked a bit but a waste of time. Happily I came across this product. After two applications I allowed the tank to marinate (soak) overnight. After I lifted the cover in the morning, what a shock!!! The entire tank looked SO MUCH CLEANER THAN NEVER BEFORE. This is a gift from the toilet gods. Now I have the cleanest toilet tank than any in my entire building for sure :) Very happy and totally satisfied with this cleaner and I'll purchase it again if needed from Amazon. You won't be disappointed with this amazing yucky tank cleaner." —IZZY

Promising review: "This product actually works!!!!!!!!! Most times, things say they do something, and while they do, they are half as good as advertised. Well, this works wonders.

Promising review: "The reviews and before/after pics had me curious, but still skeptical. I used it a few times on random stains around the house and it really does just make them disappear instantly! But all of those were new stains that hadn’t set yet. I finally decided to try it on my car seats that have been stained for years and I’m amazed at the difference! You can still see some remnants of the stains but that’s my fault for not having enough dry towels. If you follow the directions on the bottle you will not be disappointed!" —LMK32294

"This little guy has been working pretty well for me so far. Raising my puppy from 8 weeks, I've had my share of things to try and get out of the carpet, from pee stains to puke to things he would knock over to the mud he would track in.

25. Plus, a *very* popular Tineco 2-in-1 cordless vacuum and mop, which combines the best of both worlds, so cleaning up the house is much less of a hassle. It's designed to always use clean water for mopping and retains 90% of the dirty water in a separate tank, so your floors dry faster!

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

It also self-propels so you just need to steer, no hard pushing!

Promising review: "I confess I can be a lackadaisical housekeeper, which is problematic since my new dog sheds enough in a week for me to build an entire new dog. What's worse, vacuuming doesn't pick up a lot of his fur. This Tineco is magic, though. Not only does it pick everything up (dust, fur, hair, crumbs, Nature's Miracle, errant Cheerios), but because the wheels are motorized, vacuuming/mopping is a breeze. I get exhausted using my canister vac, but this thing is a blast to use. Here is what I've learned: I always use the 'extra water' feature, which seems to work better. I clean the dirty water holder and parts every time I empty it, and I run the self-clean cycle after every second emptying session. This means I can do my primary bath and my 10x12 TV room before self-cleaning and recharging for a little bit. Or I can do my kitchen, entryway, and hall before self-cleaning, or my living room. In other words, you're not going to do your whole house on one battery charge or without running the self-cleaning feature several times. Of course, the reason you have to run the self-cleaning so often is because this little beauty is picking up So. Much. Stuff. It's magic. If it broke tomorrow (and I don't think it will break for a very long time), I would buy another." —Customer

BuzzFeed editor Maitland Quitmeyer gives them a big thumbs up: "I bought a pack of these recently, and so far, love dusting with them! All the dust sticks right on, so you don't end up breathing in all the dust you just tried removing. It's great for baseboards, too!"

Promising review: "WOW is all I can say. WOW! I don't often write reviews unless I feel strongly about the product. This is one of those things. Both pairs of boots [I own] are close to 20 years old. I was close to getting rid of them until I put this conditioner on them. I now have two new pairs of boots, and they look AND feel absolutely amazing!! Also no oily residue.

Promising review: "Used it on our tubs, toilets, sinks and shower. Compared it to the It Works Bathroom you can get at The Dollar Tree. It took one bottle of this stuff to achieve the same result as three bottles of the It Works. I will buy this again, hands down. I tried the powder, which was good for scrubbing and soaking the tub, but the spray was fantastic for the shower and sink. Just sprayed, walk away for a few minutes and wipe/rinse." —Carrie D.

www.amazon.com

Promising review: "We cannot BEGIN to tell you what a lifesaver this is! We have two old fiberglass tubs with vinyl shower enclosures that no matter what amount of scrubbing we have done with everything from bleach to cleanser to vinegar and baking soda would NOT come clean. After I took my shower last night, I sprayed down the tub and walls. Within minutes, all the built-up water deposits and dirt and grime began to melt away in front of my eyes. I left it on overnight, and when I got up this morning, it did not look like the same tub and shower. This product is a godsend, especially for old folks like us who have difficulty getting down on our hands and knees and scrubbing anything. More importantly, it performs as advertised. We plan on using it as part of our weekly cleanup routine, in addition to purchasing the Wet and Forget Mold and Mildew Remover for use on the vinyl siding of our house. This is truly an overnight sensation!" —Amazon Customer

"I usually don't leave reviews, but I have to with this touchup paint. I had cheap Command hooks on my wall to hang up my curtains in my apartment, and they ended up falling off and damaging the wall. I brought this to cover it up since it was an eyesore, and this worked perfectly! Thankfully, I matched the right shade, and you can't even tell. It's easy to use and not messy at all. Once it dries, it instantly blends in. I'm glad it worked so well because now I can put more stuff on my walls and fix it with the paint so it won't affect my security deposit, LOL." —N.D.

Promising review: "Y'all, this thing is amazing! My kitchen sink was completely clogged for four days. I've been trying to clear the drain with a different sink plunger that I already had, and it didn't do diddly-squat. I was about to give up and call a plumber. Then I decided to order this one, and it just arrived...it completely cleared the drain in like three minutes. So then I decided to take it to the bathroom sink that had been draining extremely slowly and within a minute, I had the water running so quickly and smoothly again. I got the small one, and it's the perfect size for kitchen and bathroom sinks." —JNeen

Promising review: "I have a wrought iron table and chairs. The color of my set is black. Throughout the seasons the set has turned an off color of black and dull too. Using the pads creates a nice shine and brings the color back to a nice black . I’ve been using these for years." —Amazon Customer

35. A window insulator kit in case you're like me and just found out the reason your house is so cold is because your windows have draft; yay! The film in this kit shrinks to create an airtight lining to help prevent drafts, heat loss, and ridiculously high heating bills every winter.

Promising review: "I buy this every winter and it makes a BIG difference! We have super-thin windows and this works like a charm to stop 80% of the cold drafts, and I find I can sit right next to the window without a problem after installing them. It's easy to install and looks invisible after you apply heat with a hair dryer. No one will be able to tell there's a film and it'll look completely transparent after you apply heat. It was so satisfying to see the wrinkles disappear! It looks great, works great, and will save your energy! Win win win!" —Raymond

36. An oil stain remover because sometimes your car leaks, and all of a sudden, there's a big ol' stain in the middle of your driveway! This no-scrub remover deeply penetrates any petroleum-based stain and removes it so well you'll forget it was ever there — seriously.

Promising reviews: "Perfect solution. Had a stain in the driving way from a car that's been leaking for I think half a year and it works wonders! You might need to do passes though. Especially if they were there for a while." —Jessica

"Changed the oil on my girlfriend's car and some oil spilled on my NEW driveway...which I didn't notice 'til four days later. Four spots all about the size of a dollar bill baking in the Arizona sun for four days. Put the stuff on (sits on the stain like pancake batter — don't be afraid to pour liberally) and let it sit from 6 p.m. 'til about 9 a.m. the next day. It dried and the instructions said to just sweep the stuff up. It broke apart with the broom and the stains were gone, just swept up the powder pieces — took about a minute. I WAS SHOCKED! Something that actually works on oil and it's easy. Absolutely NO sign of anything that was there. My driveway is smooth concrete so I can't vouch for what would happen with a rougher surface but whoever makes this stuff is a genius. If they tried to take on World Peace, Earth would be a better place." —AmazonBob
