As a former editor at Real Simple magazine, I’ve come across many domestic products. And now I’m a free writer and a mom of two amazing but messy children. I’ve really put these cleaning products to use. So I’ve decided to share my top 4 products with you.
Magic Silicone Dishwashing Gloves
These might be one of my favorite inventions ever. BPA-free silicone gloves with built-in scrubbers (刷子) for cleaning dishes? Brilliant! They get rid of the need for a washing brush keep my nails unharmed, and they can be thrown into the dishwasher.

Rubbermaid Reveal Power Scrubber
I live in a rental apartment, and when I moved in, the ground around my bathtub was very dirty. This tool makes light work of bubble (气泡). The company says i’s twice as powerful as scrubbing with hand, and I have to agree. Use it on everything from taps to siding door tracks—you won’t want to put it down.

Angry Mama Microwave Cleaner
I can’t count how many times tomato sauce has splattered in my microwave. This small invention uses steam to loosen all that baked-on stains (污渍). Just take off the hair, fill with water and vinegar, and watch Angry Mama as she sprays hot steam all over the inside. Then wipe with a damp cloth. She’s incredibly fun to use!

Hiware Drinking Straw Brush Set
If I gave my kids only straws in their stockings for Christmas, they’d be excited. They ask for straws so often that I should buy a stock of them. And now that reusable straws are popular, these tools get more use in my house than ever.
