For tackling kitchen grime

The HOTO Grip is a compact spin scrubber made for tackling kitchen messes, especially in those smaller, harder-to-reach spots. Weighing less than a can of pop, it reaches speeds of up to 400 RPM and comes with six magnetic brush heads designed for different surfaces. Use it on stovetops, range hoods, sinks, cookware and grout without worrying about it slowing down when you apply pressure. The waterproof design makes it easy to use around water, while a three-hour USB-C charge provides up to 110 minutes of runtime.

For quick clean-ups between deep cleans

Need a quick clean-up without hauling out the full-size vacuum? The Shark WANDVAC is a lightweight option that stays on its charging dock, so it’s always ready to go. Weighing just 1.4 pounds, it uses a powerful brushless motor to pick up crumbs, dust, and pet hair in a matter of seconds. Its cordless design makes it easy to grab and use, while the one-touch dust cup keeps emptying mess-free. It also comes with a crevice tool and a pet/upholstery attachment for tackling different surfaces.

For hard-to-reach grime

The Leebein Electric Spin Scrubber comes with eight interchangeable brush heads and two speeds to tackle everything from bathroom tiles and grout to sinks, windows and hard-to-reach spots. Its adjustable handle extends up to 54 inches, helping you scrub with less bending and kneeling while making those deep-cleaning jobs a little easier.

For the bathroom scrub you’ve been avoiding

For the bathroom grime that somehow survives every regular scrub, the Rubbermaid Reveal Power Scrubber puts some extra muscle behind the job. Use it on tubs, showers, tile, grout, sinks, faucets and hard-to-reach corners, with an oscillating head that works through built-up dirt and soap scum.

For spills, stains and pet messes

For the messes that call for more than a quick vacuum, the Bissell Little Green Mini is a compact spot cleaner for carpets, upholstery, stairs, pet beds, area rugs and car seats. It sprays, scrubs and suctions away embedded dirt, spills and pet stains, while the included HydroRinse tool flushes out the hose after cleaning.

For reaching those high-up spots

Reach high ceilings, ceiling fans and tricky corners without a ladder using this microfiber duster, which extends from 30 to 100 inches and features a flexible, bendable head. The washable duster can also tackle dust and cobwebs on furniture, blinds, shelves, appliances and even inside your car.
