Promising review: "These are actually cuter than I expected! They are a tad smaller than some I've seen, but they actually looked great and can hold plenty of Q-tips and cotton balls in the spare bathrooms. I have mine on a serving tray with a candle and vase, and they look great without taking up too much space!" —tara savage

Promising review: "Sadly I only have a shower at my house and of course it's all tile. I have zero clue why anyone would want tile it's awful. Saying that cleaning it is the worst and it never gets clean and I know for a fact I don't put enough elbow grease into it. Well that all changed with these bangers! I just put it into a drill, spray some mildew spray on it, and hammer away. It's 100% better than doing it by hand not 97% or 98% or even 99% better, it's 100% better. You need these." —Mark

Promising review: "Really researched organizers and felt this was the best constructed with great storage space. Bought one, my husband saw me reorganizing my stuff and asked if he could have one, too. Ordered it, and he reorganized his stuff. He finished and told me it was the first time his bathroom cabinet was organized in 30 years. We LOVE this organizer, it is sturdy, well made and spacious." —LuckyJ

Promising review: "I searched for weeks before deciding on this particular bathroom storage unit. I wanted a cabinet on the top with doors. I love that the panels in the door are actual glass and not plastic like some others. I put this together myself, and it was very easy! It took me a couple of hours, but I took my time to ensure I put everything together correctly. The instructions were easy to understand, and everything went together quiet smoothly. This is very well made, and sturdy! I have no doubts that this will last a long time!" —dolge.

Promising review: "I bought this because of all the hype on TikTok, and I wasn't expecting much, to be honest. I have these glass shower doors that have been water marked for a while, I usually use a magic eraser, but that doesn't take them away very well. But after putting this on a microfiber towel, and simply rubbing it in, it is as clear as it was the day we bought them, I cannot believe this! I can't wait to clean other things! I would recommend gloves, because I didn't use gloves, and I can feel my finger is a little scratched up from the little particles that has in it." —Jennifer

Get it from Amazon for $5.97.

I love this. So much easier to use. I also like the fact that the hooks will not rust. They won't be messing up my shower rod. Ordering was easy and I received them very quickly. I highly recommend these hooks." —Amazon Customer

Get a set of 10 tiles from Amazon for $13.90+ (available in two styles).

Promising review: "I used this product five years ago in the bathroom floor of a house we bought. It had beautiful beige tile and hideous orange grout. After cleaning the grout with a paste of Oxiclean, I applied the pen. It covered completely and I have beige grout. It has lasted without reapplying for five years. The floor is washed every week. We recently bought a vacation condo with beige tile and orange grout in the shower. I used the white pen and the shower looks brand new. Now I ordered more for the floor." —Pamela Brucker

Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in two tip widths).

Promising review: "I don't often write reviews, but I just had to for this amazing product! Sure it's a little pricey, but not terrible. But IT WORKS! And as embarrassing as it is to show my before and after photos, here they are! No scrubbing at all! I have a number of autoimmune disorders, and after I’ve taken care of my family and run all over for their sporting events, I rarely have the energy to deep clean… especially a shower only my husband and I use. Hence the buildup. I’ve tried numerous products with no success, then I came upon this gem. It's got a bit of a smell to it, but it's not too bad. This one is a winner!" —Grandma

Get a pack of two tubes from Amazon for $26.99.

Promising review: "We bought a house with a jetted tub. I had anxiety about using the tub because I didn't know what kind of germs and funk was in the jets. I ordered Oh Yuk before we even closed a escrow. And when escrow did close, I got my keys and immediately used Oh Yuk in the tub. The junk that came out was hella gross! I ran it four times and not the tub jets are spotless. It was great being able to take a bath and not worry about someone else's dirty and funk in my bath water. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!" —Niki D.

Promising review: "I used this today and am very pleased with how quickly it cleaned. I hate the old type of toilet brushes having them sitting around, ick.

I know all Clorox products are always great." —J O L
