One minute, you’re opening up TikTok for a quick break from the day-to-day…and suddenly, four hours have passed. But what if we told you there is a “hack” (or 11!) to totally transform your spring cleaning routine? Allow us to introduce you to #CleanTok, a corner of TikTok that’s entirely dedicated to cleaning and organizing your home. Millions have been gripped by the hacks shared daily by at-home pros, who are putting these products to the test. Gone are the days of doom-scrolling — this side of TikTok is all about helping you level-up your cleaning game.
Professional janitors, experienced moms and self-proclaimed “clean freaks” alike have weighed in on their opinions about these trending home cleaning products, many of which are the perfect match for stubborn stains, burnt-on grease and much more. With every video, these creators show the before and after #CleanTok lovers simply can’t get enough of and want to watch over and over again. After all, is there anything better than seeing soap scum magically disappear?
From a tub of baby pink “stuff” that magically eliminates grime to a versatile cordless power scrubber, there are so many #CleanTok products to explore. To narrow down the top choices, we checked out videos and review about the viral must-haves that really work. Below, see the top picks (which you can find at Walmart!) and why they went viral, according to the TikTok creators who continue to recommend them.
The Pink Stuff Miracle Cleaning Paste
We would be remiss if we failed to mention the one-and-only Pink Stuff. A seemingly simple product, this baby pink paste is no match for surface stains—and all of the cleaning influencers, including @cleanwithbukky are into it. All you need to do is apply the product onto, well, anything (almost!) and then use some sort of sponge or brush to wipe the stain away. Then, rinse with water and voila!
Foam Tastic Bathroom Cleaner with OxiClean
Some say that it does the job, and others like @maizimmy claim that the overall experience and color encourages them to clean. The bright purple color of this bathroom cleaning product changes to white as you go, making your chores a fun and satisfying part of the day.
Cleansing Pads
This product stole hearts when it appeared on Shark Tank, and it has only increased in popularity on #CleanTok. Available in a variety of colors, these smiley sponges work hard to deeply clean your items—without scratching. Plus, that sweet smile is super handy, too, since you can use it to efficiently clean utensils and other similar products.
Little Green Portable Carpet Cleaner
Another small-but-mighty item is the Little Green carpet cleaner from Bissell. More than 955,000 people were mesmerized when @ashley_c__ restored her daughter’s shag rug with a few passes of her go-to carpet cleaner. Designed for homes with pets, toddlers and any other stain-makers, this is fit for removing tough messes from cars, carpets, upholstery and more.
iFloor 3
A more high-end viral product, the Tineco iFloor 3 is an easy-to-use floor washer that does the work of a vacuum and a mop. It comes with a dual-tank system, so it collects dirty water and only deposits clean water as you go. You will also know when it needs to “self-clean,” which @abbanicole88 raved about in her viral video.
18-Volt ONE+ Cordless Power Scrubber
Janitor @cleanthatup calls this one a game-changer. The drill brush works quickly and efficiently, and there are quite a few attachment options available. Pro tip from this creator: Use softer bristles on more delicate items and more firm bristles on tougher materials like cement.
EasyWring Spin Mop & Bucket System
Take things up a notch with the O-Cedar, a beloved cleaning item that is all over TikTok. People didn’t think it was possible to get their floors this clean, and you can use water only or mix in a floor cleaner. The best part? Hands-free wringing, thanks to the foot-activated pedal. We also love how creators like @ejjude2012 end their videos with a super satisfying dirty water dump.
SteamShot Deluxe
This is one of those all-in-one products that truly can do it all. Creator @jessmapes got us hooked when she shared a grossly satisfying shower cleaning video. The Bissell SteamShot Deluxe comes with eight different attachments (including brushes, a scraping tool and steamer), so you can assess which one to use based on any particular need.
Reveal Cordless Power Scrubber
Trust us: This is not your everyday toothbrush. It’s a mini power scrubber with an oscillating head, which is perfect for tackling grout stains in your bathroom and shower. It scrubs 60 times per second, and it’s made with a comfortable grip for easy maneuvering. You can see how @jettsetfarmhouse combined this tool with her O-Cedar mop to clean her home.
Retractable Lint Roller
Sometimes, all you need is a handy little tool that will wipe away any hairs or lint. @passionista_soul found this in the Flint Retractable Lint Roller, a retractable handheld device that you can take on the go for any minor mishaps, like your furry friend’s hair on your couch or lint on your favorite black sweater.
Magic Sponge Erasers
Scuff marks, meet the Magic Sponge. Dog mom @kami.larae uses them on almost everything in her home: cleaning baseboards, removing fingerprint stains on painted doors and even while getting rid of grime on pots and pans. You can also buy these in bulk, so you’ll have a hefty supply whenever your home needs a good scrub.
