7 cult cleaning products influencers swear by

Do you have these iconic products? - byOlivia Hart

There are plenty of ways to cut corners when it comes to cleaning your house. Doing a little bit every day is one way, but the best method is to use the most effective products. There’s nothing worse than finishing a big spring clean only to find streaky windows where they should be spotless, or an oven that still looks greasy because the cleaning products used weren't effective.

No one should have to dedicate their whole weekend to deep cleaning their home like a professional just to get results. It's much better rely on products that have been tested by everyday people and shot to cult-status as a result of word-of-mouth recommendations.

While some products can be overhyped, these products deserve the attention they get and the cult-followings they've amassed.

This eco-certified brand aims to simplify cleaning with a streamlined product range that can be used to clean almost every surface in your home. The best-selling mop, however, is a crowd favourite for a reason. The lightweight design removes the need for a bucket, while the highly-efficient formula leaves your floors sparkling clean. Designed with a built-in canister that you can pour your solution straight into, and a trigger you pull to release the spray. Shoppers also appreciate Koh's value for money. If you purchase a Koh Starter Bundle, for example, you can save up to 60%.

Magic erasers are one of the most affordable cult items on this list. You order them online at Coles on eBay, or find them in store. Kmart sells them for $2 or you can pick them up from Woolies for no more than $6. While there are few things a magic eraser can't clean, there are still several to avoid.

Even though this coveted product is well-known, many don't realise how useful it really is. A professional cleaner shared her method for cleaning grout on tiled floors and her secret weapon was the Napisan Stain Remover. She mixed two scoops of the powder with water before scrubbing and her floors looked better than ever. This product also works wonder on a oven, or for its intended purpose: removing stains from clothes.

This miracle cleaner is the answer to all your toilet woes. When one woman was having issues removing stains from the bottom of her aged toilet, she discovered this heavy duty descaler was the only thing that worked.
