As a Senior Shopping Writer at BuzzFeed, I specialize in a broad range of topics, including beauty, cleaning, fashion, personal care, home, fitness, and my beloved “TikTok made me buy it.” My work has been featured across lifestyle and writing publications during my ten years in the digital media space, including Bustle, HuffPost, HelloGiggles, and The Washington Post.
Check out this TikTok of the Folex Carpet Spot Removerto see it in action!
Promising review: “I have used Folex for years, and it works wonders on everything from spilled coffee, wine, and dog messes, without any chemical smells or residue. But my love for Folex grew so much deeper when I dropped a 32-ounce jar of salsa down the stairs. My husband took one look and declared that the stairs were ruined and would need to be replaced. I took a look, grabbed the Folex, and said, 'We’ve got this.' If you have children, pets, or are very clumsy with your canned goods, you need this bulk-size jug in your arsenal of cleaning supplies.” —Carobnty

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 I 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.

Skoy is a small business that specializes in household cleaning products.
Promising review: "At 67, I can say I’ve tried all kinds of different scrubbers, and these are definitely the best. These actually work better than Magic Erasers. They don’t hold food like the common ones at the market. They haven’t held any stains so far, they just rinse off, and are eco-friendly but last forever. I’m still on my first one after eight months, and it looks like new. I’ve put it in the washer but not the dryer since they dry fast — and by the way, they don’t stink. This is my second order because I’m bringing a couple to my second home, and I’m going to include one in my camping gear as well. I’m definitely impressed." —SoCalToyotas

Promising review: "These Scrubbing Bubbles toilet drop-ins are a simple and convenient way to keep the toilet bowl fresh and cleaner between regular cleanings. I like that they work automatically every time you flush, helping reduce buildup and keeping things smelling fresh. The blue water also gives the bathroom a cleaner, fresher look, which is a nice little touch. They’re easy to use, last a good amount of time, and make maintaining the bathroom much easier. Great value for the price and a product I’ll continue buying." —Zuhair Family

Promising review: "I don't know what it is about these, but putting one down my sink and watching the foamy bubbles come up is SO satisfying. Really scratches an itch that I didn't even realize I had. I read about these in some article about popular products on TikTok and wanted to try them because my garbage disposal had not been smelling super lately. They did not disappoint! Super easy to use and leaves the disposal smelling fresh." —Liz R.

Puracy is a Texas-based, family-owned business specializing in plant-based, chemical-free, hypoallergenic home products, with a donation made to local families in need with a portion of every purchase.
Psst — this spray also does a number on all those other miscellaneous stains in your life, like wine, coffee, soy sauce, makeup, and period blood! I recently bought this to test it for myself, and I can attest to how well it works to get period blood out even after you've tried something else. I stained a pair of beloved bright-blue bike shorts in my sleep and tried to get it out with soap and water, but the stain was still there when it came out of the wash. I treated it with this, stuck it back in the wash, and BOOM, it's like it never happened (I panicked before I could get a before-and-after, please forgive me, laundry gods).

Promising review: "This product, my drill, and the flat sponge-type cleaning pad were the only things that worked, transforming this very dirty tub into cleaner than clean. Very little muscle power necessary. A little goes a long way. It takes off the worst of things and leaves a kind of ceramic coat behind. It’s amazing." —Glinda

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." —Molly

Promising review: "I have owned this scrubber for a while now and waited to review to assess its durability. It hasn't disappointed. I frequently use cast iron to cook and take great care in keeping it clean and seasoned. This scrubber is great for getting up those stuck-on bits and pieces for high-temperature searing. With hot water, most of the time, it is all that I need to clean up the pan. On occasion, I'll add salt to the pan with a bit of hot water and scrub when more is needed to get it clean. I bought another for my son, who has commented on its effectiveness in cleaning up caked-on bits. It is a solid purchase for the price point as well." —Don Lomas

Check out a TikTok of the foaming pink drain cleaner in action.
Promising review: "Wow! I don't think I've ever been more excited to use a cleaning product before. Who knew you could get so much satisfaction from a drain cleaner. I could probably make an ASMR video and post it, as it is that satisfying! Even though I had to angle this over my sink drain, to avoid the low faucet, it worked perfectly. The foam went down the drain and up through the overflow, bringing lots of black, yucky gunk with it. I have used lots of drain cleaners before, but not one that actually came up through the overflow. I'd never even considered what stuff was in there. It did a great job of cleaning everything out, and it left the sink smelling fresh and clean as well." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I really like this trash can deodorizer because it’s easy to install, and each of the two scents smells lovely. Remember, you get two different scents, which spares you from having to buy a second scent the moment the first one runs dry. Each scent smells deliciously sweet and nature-like (it doesn’t stir up our allergies). The scent is neither too weak nor too strong. Plus, on the practical side, the size is perfect, the adhesive lasts a long time, and the product delivers on its promises. It’s a great choice and an excellent value for the price!" —Lynne Texas

Promising review: "Saved me from buying a new dishwasher! I have to admit that I was skeptical that this product was actually going to do anything. I’ve noticed my dishwasher wasn’t cleaning dishes very well lately, and I did everything I could to get it working properly again, but I was ready to finally give up and buy a new dishwasher. I bought these tablets thinking they were designed to eliminate odors, but I was willing to give them a shot before buying a whole new dishwasher. I put one in the bottom of the dishwasher last night per the instructions and woke up to completely clean dishes for the first time in weeks. They look perfect. I don’t know why these tablets work, but they absolutely did, and I am a happy customer!" —B. Turner

Each cleaner comes with a trial size of Bissell's Spot & Stain Formula, which is also available on Amazon!
Promising review: "Yup, saw it on TikTok and had to buy it. My car's upholstery was so dirty from my dogs and years of NOT getting it deep cleaned. This is a game-changer. I should've taken a before and after because it was awesome. Not to mention how satisfying it is to see the dirty water get sucked back into the tank. Easy to prep. Easy to use. Easy to clean. I definitely recommend. This will be perfect for other things in the house as well because if it can tackle MY car with two big dogs, it's gold." —Taylor L.

Promising review: "After moving into a house owned by older adults, a lot was neglected. Feeling overwhelmed by the hard water left in our shower, I avoided it for months. After watching TikTok, I found this product recommendation, and MY GOD did it change my life. It is SUPER messy, so wear gloves, and it’s easiest to squeeze on a paper towel, apply, and then scrub with a wool scrub after. But once you figure out the flow, boy, does it work!!!" —Alicia

The kit comes with one Baseboard Buddy and three reusable pads, which are washable, and can be used wet or dry.
Promising review: "Buy it NOW. Honestly, I had huge reservations about this thing. Yet another miracle cleaning tool that will break or bend or something. I was so wrong. It was easy to put together, and I sprayed it with Mean Green and went to the baseboards. No more kneeling and no broken back. This thing is amazing. It is durable, and the pad is super absorbent. I am so happy. I can't wait to do the rest of the house!" —artgirl

It reached all the way behind my dryer, and you just slide it across, and it gets everything out from under it! I’ve used it in various areas — the dryer, gaps between the oven, and under the oven. Definitely worth buying!" —L.M.

Promising review: "It’s a little hard to squeeze, but that totally makes up for the AMAZING results. I was embarrassed about our tubs because the people we bought our house from didn’t caulk or seal them properly, and this resulted in mildew buildup. I tried EVERYTHING until I saw this on TikTok, I believe — MIRACLE FREAKING WORKER. I will be buying more, the only complaint I will ever have is the shipping got mixed up, but that is not a problem and was fixed very easily!" —Brooklyn Nguyen

And wow, oh wow, am I glad I did! The area has to be big enough to pull it back and forth, so it’s ideal for couches and beds, and other furniture. It is so easy to empty too, and oh so satisfying to see what you picked up with it! Now I want to try the handheld version for clothing!" —Kindle Customer

I owe my life to these pens!! My infant son and I share a room when we stay at my parents' house, which is all fun and games until I try to sneak into bed after he's already gone night-night — only to have the door let out an unholy SQUAWK when I shut it behind me. Half the time, he would wake up, and chaos would reign. But my dad had one of these handy and got the squeak taken care of in just a minute! (Now if only WD-40 could sleep train the baby for all the other times he wakes me up in the middle of the night ... )
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

Promising review: "I never leave reviews on Amazon, but this grout cleaner definitely deserved a review. I tried three other cleaners before buying Grout-eez, and they did nothing but waste my time and money. Grout-eez got my grout perfectly clean in no time, plus it was easy to use and no odor. I'll never use another grout cleaner." —Tyler

Promising review: "If it were possible to give 10 stars, this product is definitely worth it. I originally bought this in the store and was most impressed with how well it cleaned the refrigerator from all fingerprints and watermarks. My friend came over and said, 'What in the world did you clean your refrigerator with because it looks brand new?!' It is the best product I have ever used on my refrigerator and stove! Just wipe down and let it sink in, then wipe over with a clean, soft towel for a polished, shiny look! IT IS MARVELOUS! I SAY MARVELOUS! Don't bother with sprays! I bought two containers so that I will not run out for a long time!" —Roie

While looking at the internet for something to make the job easier, I found the Hiware window blind cleaner duster brush. The price was more than affordable, so I thought I would give it a shot. This little device is genius, and the microfiber sleeves are so easy to throw in the washer to get ready for the next time." —Northwest Gal

Promising review: "This product is so amazing, I'm going to get one for all of my children. I am a teacher, and I let my students use my microwave. Usually, it takes me half an hour of scrubbing after 31 students have made popcorn and heated up lunches. This time I used the product, and I literally spent less than one minute just wiping down the microwave!!! I will now keep one in my classroom, and one at my home. A miracle product that actually does what it says, remarkable!!!" —Desiree Barlow

Powerstone Pumiceis a small business that specializes in home cleaning products.
Promising review: "I have never been so happy about a purchase before, and this did it! We went away for a week and came back home and saw stains in all of the toilet bowls. I researched, and it’s from hard water or something like that. I’m so glad I [tried this] because this saved me so much money and time on finding a solution that works miracles. I didn’t even need to scrub hard. Just rubbed it on the stains a couple of times, and I was done in less than five minutes for each bowl. I highly recommend this product!" —Selina B

Here's what BuzzFeeder Maitland Quitmeyer has to say about it: I bought this for my white porcelain kitchen sink and I've since texted five people about it, which is really a lot for such a boring grown-up product. It cleans beautifully, but the *best* thing about it is its ability to repel stains after cleaning. You know that thing when you rinse out your coffee cup and the coffee water just lingers in your sink, and you have to purposefully rinse it out for two minutes? You don't have to do that — the coffee can't stick to the sink and just goes RIGHT down the drain. Time saved, sink clean — this is really a Virgo dream product right here.
Promising review: "I first saw this product on TikTok. I was skeptical, as not everything that blows up works as well as they say. But after trying so many different sink cleaners, I was ready to give this a try. I followed the directions exactly on the bottle, and the results were instant. I will not go back to any other cleaner for my sink." —lexidan

Turbo Mops is a small business that specializes in eco-friendly cleaning products.
Promising review: "If you have a Swiffer Wet Jet and are tired of having to buy those mop pads, I would 10000x recommend these. All you do is stick it to the bottom of your mop like you would a mop pad and mop like normal. It stays on great and even picks up crumbs better than the store-bought mop pads. Once you’re done, you just throw it in the wash, and it’s good as new. I’m not sure if you’re supposed to dry them, but I do, and they come out just fine! I love these!!" —Kate

Promising review: "I have tiles that the builder put down. As you can imagine, they are not the best quality and feel porous. Everything shows on the floor, but this cleaner truly makes a difference. It goes deep into the tile and grout and leaves it super clean without much effort. Truly effective. The floor looks super clean and shiny after using it. It comes well-packed, so there is no leakage. Best floor cleaner in my opinion. A little goes a long way." —Michelle O

Yay! Saves me time and scrubbing energy :)." —Grover

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: "I have two long-haired dogs, and my larger dog (a standard Aussie) sheds a lot. It's a constant hassle to clean up, and it doesn't seem to matter how often we vacuum, there's always more hair. I saw this product on TikTok and thought it might be worth a try to get up more hair from our carpets. It worked really well. I personally found the 'squeegee' side worked best on the carpet, but the brush side worked well on the tile." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "This product works wonders! The difference between the before and after is jaw-dropping. I have never ever been able to truly see-through the glass doors on my fireplace in the ten years I have lived in my home until now. I almost purchased both this product and the fireplace glass cleaner to clean my entire fireplace, but am glad I saved my money. This product is all you need to clean up your fireplace, glass included. My husband and I still just cannot get over how well this stuff worked!! Now I am going to give my fireplace the makeover it deserves. Although giving it a simple cleaning with this made it look like a brand-new fireplace in itself!!" —Courtney Headrick
