This week was dedicated to spring cleaning in some form or another on Ann’s Entitled Life. In case you missed it, it began Monday with do your kids do chores? I was then curious to know if anyone performs a thorough spring cleaning in today day and age? And in case you were interested in hiring, I was oh so helpful with 10 tips for hiring a house cleaning service and our housecleaning service experience.
But, regardless of whether or not you have child labor, do it yourself, or hire an outside service, everyone has their favorite and best cleaning product choices! So, what are yours?
For me it is Swiffers. I love them! I can use them as dust cloths, on the floors, walls, wherever! They are gentle, leave no residue and really do work. I can see the dust and dirt on a swiffer when I am finished using it, and the surface is shiny and clean.
What are your favorite and/or best cleaning products? Why do you like that product so much?

I have to have Lysol CLING toilet bowl cleaner.

Does the cling make that big a difference?

Oh YES – for some reason it just works better… I have hard water with iron and clay… and it smells really good.

My favorite cleaning product is my Starfiber broom/mop.. I wouldnt take anything in the world for it.. It makes cleaning floors & walls a snap..
My other favorite is Scrubbing Bubbles Bathroom cleaner.. its the only toxic cleaner I still use but I doubt I’ll get rid of it.. Its too easy & works too well.
I love my Dyson Animal too.. I put the dust attachment on it & it takes care of it… Im allergic to dust so this is fantastic for me.. I dont get sick when I dust with it as I do without it.

I have two, Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. I swear this takes off any marks dirt, etc., and I love Swiffer. I bought some microfiber clothes and dish washing sponges from Casabella and I love, love, love them. A tad bit expensive but I will buy them again. I have a question, my cook top has stains all around the 4 burners. I have tried cook top cleaner, baking soda and water and made a paste and let it sit on the stain over night and a few other things but the black rings will not come off. Any suggestions? Never another cook top!

I don’t know if Soft scrub cleanser will help but that is what I use on my stove. I work the cleanser a little bit on stubborn areas with a soft-fiber toothbrush. Just in case you’re worried about its abrasiveness, I’ve been using soft scrub on various stove tops for 20 years or so and haven’t noticed any damages yet.
Just this week I ran out of Mr. Clean magic eraser and Swiffer wet mop refills. Love these 2 products because I don’t have to put much elbow grease in cleaning. Maybe I haven’t been looking hard enough but it seems like there are not many promos on these 2 products?!

Although I try to keep most toxic chemical cleaners out of my house, if I have a really toughy, I’ll use Awesome spray clean (from the Dollar Tree or Dollar General) and that usually works.
You might want to leave a kitchen towel dampened with Awesome on it over night & see if that’ll clean it up. The stuff is indeed awesome, whatever it is.

Dawn? It seems to clean just about anything.

I love Windex original! It sprays on and wipes off without any streaks! We use it faithfully throughout the kitchen———a bottle a week or so!! Love it! Stocked up on it with Kroger’s Mega Sale!
admin says
Come clean my windows, Litsa!! 😀

Clorox/Lysol wipes make cleaning washrooms easier for the boys. I don’t worry about puddles of spray cleaner cause its so much fun spraying things…
MrClean erasers are great, they work on almost everything.
For windows I use clean socks straight from the washer. They have not invented a product that I can use and not leave streaks.
