All that burned or caked-on residue won't just lift up with any old cleaner. Find a special glass stove top cream or foam to get that job done, like this one from Amazon.
There is nothing on this list I truly believe more than this: Every house needs more than a stack of microfiber cloths. They'll clean anything, they're infinitely reusable, and they're gentle. I use mine to clean everything from my computer screen to my shower.
Whether you have hard water build-up on your kitchen sink, your shower head, or any faucet, a descaler will take care of it. Rub some on and watch those stains magically disappear. Satisfying!
No, really! Not only will it clean the blades, it'll purify any nasty smells coming out of it. No one wants to smell last week's dinner, but almost everyone wants to smell lemons.
Grout can get so nasty. Luckily, there are tons of ways to clean it, from using Tide pens to actual grout cleaner!
(Get actual grout cleaner. I used a Tide pen and it took forever.)

Man, what can't vinegar do? Fill a container with vinegar and soak any glassware with cloudiness or buildup in it for about 5 minutes. Then gently wipe it down and revel in how clear it is. Ooo, shiny.
But especially a dirty shoe one. Magic Erasers work wonders on rubber. Keep your sneakers crisp and clean by using one around the soles! That reminds me, I really need to do that...
Sure, there are tons of hacks out there for removing red wine stains. But there's also this easy af option: Wine Away. It doesn't use bleach, and it works on dried stains, too.
Slicing along (but not through) a sponge will really get into the nooks and crannies of any sliding door tracks you may have. Goodbye, built up leaves and dirt, you will not be missed.
Scrubbing can be a pain in the butt. So why not have your drill do it for you? A scrubber attachment for your drill will help you clean difficult surfaces, like I don't know... grout? WINK.
I swear this works. Using a dryer sheet, run it all along the top and sides of your baseboards to collect up dust. Since it's anti-static, it grabs it easily! Plus, nice smelling baseboards.
