Dan Dillon, cleaning expert and founder of CleanItSupply.com, recommends this blinds duster to tackle those hard-to-clean window treatments. He says, “This ingenious tool simplifies the tedious task of dusting blinds, reaching into nooks with ease, and making what was once a chore, a breeze.” The dusting tool features three “fingers” with interchangeable microfiber sleeves that grab onto dust for quick and easy cleaning. Just wash the sleeves between uses and they’ll last for a long time.

Dillon recommends these silicone gloves while dishwashing because they “not only protect your hands, but come with built-in bristles, turning your fingertips into scrubbing powerhouses for dishes, tiles, and even pet grooming.” These genius gloves let you cut out the middle man (your sponge) to help streamline cleaning. They’re made from food-grade silicone, with a comfy, elastic fit.

Dillon’s third must-have is the Ecoegg Laundry Egg , which takes the place of traditional laundry detergents and the hefty plastic jugs they come in. “Just toss it in your wash, and it cleans clothes naturally, lasting up to 70 washes – it’s a game-changer for both your wallet and the planet, “ he explains. The egg uses mineral pellets and a very small amount of detergent to scrub clothes clean. It’s available in fragrance-free, spring blossom, and fresh linen scents, and is dermatologically tested to be hypoallergenic.

Rounding out Dillon’s favorite clever things on Amazon is the FlexiSnake Drain Millipede. He says it “easily unclogs drains with its unique micro-hook design, pulling out hair and debris without needing harsh chemicals.” The drain tool has 360-degree rotation and an 18-inch length to clear even the most stubborn of clogs without the need for expensive plumbing services. It works in sinks, showers, and tubs, making it a handy, versatile tool to have around.

At just [around] $7 a piece, these plugs allow you to control lights, appliances, and other devices remotely via smartphone app or voice commands.” This two-pack of smart plugs adds instant voice control to any outlet, allowing you to sync appliances to Alexa or Google Assistant in seconds.

A draft stopper like this self-adhesive one can help cold air from entering and warm heat from escaping, saving you on your energy bills and keeping you comfortable, too. (And it works vice versa, in the summer). Capozzolo says, “This self-adhesive strip can easily be applied to the bottom of any door or window, creating a seal to prevent drafts from coming in. It also helps to keep out dust, insects, and noise.” These stoppers are available in three different colors to blend seamlessly and are made from resilient materials that won’t warp or damage your flooring or windowsills.

Eliana Coca, owner and operator of E.C. House Cleaning in Massachusetts, recommends the Baseboard Buddy to clean hard-to-reach areas like baseboards, moldings, and corners. She says, “Its design and functionality make it a favorite among our clients and staff, as it significantly reduces the time and effort required to tackle those often-neglected areas of the home.” This lightweight, extendable cleaning tool saves your back from strain, extending up to 4 feet and boasting full 360-swiveling motion. For storage, the handle collapses, so it won’t take up unnecessary space.

According to Coca, another “invaluable find find for homeowners, especially those dealing with frequent clogged drains due to hair,” is the TubShroom drain protector.

It fits perfectly inside most 5-gallon buckets for versatility and ease of use.

Farley says, “One of the weirdest products I've seen on Amazon is a pair of gloves with LED flashlights at the fingertips.” And while they might be strange — they’re also kind of genius. The battery-operated gloves eliminate the need for holding a flashlight while you work and when powered by the included AAA batteries, they’ll provide hours of illumination. Slip them on for after-dark dog walks, too, and you’ll be more visible to cars.

Craig Young, Vice President of Roof Doctors in California, recommends using window weather-sealing tape to add extra climate control to your home.

This pack is sized to handle up to 3 pounds, making them perfect for towels, leashes, and bags.

Speaking of genius hanging solutions, Young also recommends using “hanging organizers [that] hook onto the back of cabinet doors and provide additional storage space for spices, cleaning supplies, or other small items.” These over-cabinet door organizers fit the bill.
