If you have ever shopped on the popular online marketplaces, then you know all about the wonders that can be found. As you surf from page to page, cleaning gadgets for every nook and cranny is available and ready to be shipped from every corner of the globe. Some gadgets stand out from the rest, though. These things can clean areas of your home that you might never have even thought of cleaning. Do you ever eat over your keyboard and drops crumbs in-between the keys? If the answer is yes, then there is an easy-to-use gadget for that. Keep scrolling to see some of the most useful cleaning tools you can pick-up at the click of a button.

A Microwave Cleaner

Microwaves are one of those household appliances that we often neglect to clean. All you do is reheat food in them, and then head over to the table or couch to dig into your hot meal.

Microwaves do need to be cleaned, though, because the steam often contains food particles that get stuck to the walls of the microwave. The Angry Mama is a gadget you fill with water and vinegar, which releases steam when microwaved. The mixture dissolves food particles, which makes cleaning much easier.

The Recycling Trash Can

A lot of countries have recycling systems in place for paper, plastic, and glass items. Separating all of your recycling from your trash can be a time-consuming process, which a lot of people don’t want to do.

That is where the dual-compartment trash can enters the scene. Whether it is a plastic bottle, or simply some old food, there are two compartments for you to choose from. This makes separating your recycling from your trash very easy. As well, when it comes time to actually take everything to the curb on garbage day, all you need to do is pull-out the appropriate compartment.

A Tool Within A Tool


When you look at a power drill, you see all of the drill bits you can use to put screws in the wall, make holes to hang up artwork, and so much more. Drills can actually be used to scrub areas that might be stained if you purchase the right scrub brush set.

These scrub brushes can be used on carpets that might have got some red wine on them, or to scrub a toilet bowl that has a lot of calcium build-up in it. The possibilities are endless!

Cleaning The Gutters

All houses have gutters. Gutters allow water to pour off of a roof and keep your house from flooding during a torrential downpour.

They are also great pockets that collect leaves, and other detritus that has fallen from the sky and the trees surrounding a house. Cleaning the gutters is dangerous as it often involves a rickety ladder experience, and maybe even a fall. A leaf blower cleans your gutters and keeps you safe at the same time.

Catching Hair

Anyone with long hair knows that it can easily clog a drain as you shower. All of the strands can get caught in the drain, and eventually need to be pulled out by a plumber in a giant mess of a hairball.

It’s kind of gross to have to stick your hand down the drain and touch slimy hair. That’s why a simple hair catcher placed in the drain is such a good idea. All of the hair gets caught in it for simple removal once it is full.

The Advanced Window Squeegee

Keeping the windows on your vehicle clean is important. You need to be able to see through them while you are driving to avoid having any accidents. This window cleaner is both a squeegee and a power washer.

First, water is sprayed on the window, and then as you move the squeegee down the window, water is sucked inside the machine. This avoids any runoff which could leave streaky lines and make it hard to see. For those that love detailing their vehicles, this will definitely be an item that you want to add to your wishlist or purchase outright if you can’t wait for your birthday.

Another One Bites The Dust


No matter what you do, there will be dusty areas in your house. These are often on the top of wardrobes or in-between areas on a bookshelf. For the hard to reach places, you will need to pull out a chair to stand on and run your duster over the surfaces.

There is an invention though that has made it so you can just stand on the ground, though. The extendable duster allows you to get those out of reach places, simply by extending the neck of the duster. Now, you will never need to worry about wobbling on a chair while you make your home dust-free.

For The Barbecue Lovers

Once summer rolls around, people love to take out their barbecues and start grilling up meat feasts. All of that grilling does lead to a build-up of charred bits on the grill itself. These bits need to be burned off or scrubbed off with some heart steel wool.
