These 5 household cleaners are miracle workers for the bathroom and kitchen – believe me, I use them all

I remember seeing this all over TikTok a few years ago. It went viral because it was so easy to remove stubborn grease or other residue.

It's been about three years since this video, and today it's a staple in my household. Although Dawn Powerwash is technically a dishwashing spray, it can be used for almost anything. Simply spray, wipe and rinse – minimal effort but still works wonders.

However, be careful not to use it too frequently as it can quickly become soapy and rinsing it off can be a hassle.

This is my go-to cleaner for areas where I'm not sure what to use. It is safe to use throughout the home and is made from 100 percent natural cleaning particles.

The work is done well. The only downside is that I wish it was antibacterial, especially since I tend to use it in the bathroom. The only areas where it should not be used are wood, aluminum and worn or scratched surfaces.

One of the things I always hated about cleaning was my glass cooktop. There were too many steps and in the end it didn't even look that clean. Until I used the Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser.

When I tell you that my oven looks brand new, I'm not exaggerating. I had heard a lot of good things about this range, but I didn't expect it to be literally magic.

You don't have to use a lot of product (or scrub a lot!) – the cleaner does the heavy lifting.

However, it is quite abrasive. Therefore, wear gloves as it can irritate the skin and leave a lingering odor. Also, avoid the stainless steel areas on the stove. I learned the hard way that it destroys the finish.

This magic mop is truly magical as it makes cleaning the shower and bathtub easier. Simply apply a cleaner to the pad and scrub it off.

The pad is removable, making it easy to clean after use or handheld device use.

I would say it is best to remove the pad immediately after use and protect the pole from water. I tried storing it in my shower for easy access, but the rod has retained too much water over time and is now leaking, creating a mess.

This steel wool SOS soap pillow has been an integral part of my household since I was a child. It's super affordable and the perfect all-in-one product.

The wool pads are filled with soap and are ideal for washing dishes and cleaning various surfaces. I personally used it for my bathroom sinks and countertops. I love how convenient it is when I want to give myself a quick scrub. Just be careful not to get too close to the grout as the blue soap tends to stick and stain in some areas.
