Top cleaning product deals
Shark Detect Pro Cordless Vacuum Cleaner | was £349.99, now £252.00 at Amazon
Rated the ‘best new’ vacuum in our best vacuum guide, the Shark Detect Pro is the brand’s newest offering - and it bagged itself a perfect score in our Ideal Home review. Not only is it stylish to look at, but it also offers four different technologies to efficiently clean your home.
OXO Good Grips Stainless Steel Squeegee | was £15, now £11.99 at Amazon
You don’t have a squeegee in your life? Well, let’s change that. A squeegee may seem like a simple cleaning gadget, but it’s actually one of the handiest products you could add to your cleaning caddy. It’s a particular favourite of Lynsey Crombie, best-selling author and regular presenter on ITV's This Morning and GMB. She told us, ‘These are perfect for keeping in the shower to remove water as you come out of the shower to prevent limescale, but they are also great for cleaning windows, mirrors, high glass cabinets and shower screens.’
Vileda Turbo Microfibre Mop and Bucket Set | was £39.99, now £14.91 at Amazon
We could shout about this particular mop until the cows come home. Crowned the ‘best mop set’ in our best mop guide, this product proves that old-school design never goes out of style. Within this set, you get the mop head itself and foot pedal-operated wringer, allowing you to kill 99.9% of bacteria with just water and no harsh chemicals. With a 4.5 score out of 5 (and over 75,000 Amazon reviews), it seems as though we’re not the only one who loves this mop, either.
Dr. SIGA 710ml Water Spray Bottles, Pack of 3 | was £15.99, now £12.99 at Amazon
If you’re not sure which cleaning products to clean your whole home, you can never go wrong with cleaning with white vinegar. And while you can buy white vinegar in spray bottles, it often works out much cheaper to buy larger bottles of vinegar and pour them into your own spray bottles. These are currently on sale for the Amazon Prime Day event, and we think they're a total bargain.

MR.SIGA Microfibre Cleaning Cloth (24 pack) | Was £19.99, now £15.99 at Amazon
Cleaning cloths are a household staple every homeowner needs. Having them in the cupboard ready to use whenever you need to clean your hob or your sofa is always a good idea, as you’ll never be left short-handed when you have to deal with an unexpected spill. This 24-pack will certainly keep you going for a few months, too. Our Editor Heather Young has these and says: 'I colour-code my cleaning and use different colours for different cleaning tasks around the house.'
Command Picture Hanging Strips | was £11.97 now £8.99 at Amazon
Whether you live in rented accommodation or you can’t use power tools, Command Strips are a household essential that everyone should have lying around in the drawer. After all, you never know when you’re going to use them! This pack comes with both medium and large strips, allowing you to hang everything from smaller wall art to larger mirrors.
Spontex Thick Moppets (12 sponges) | Was £15, now £12.96 at Amazon
While you can certainly stock up on cleaning products, you also need a way to use these cleaning products - and that’s where cleaning sponges come into the picture! These biodegradable extra thick sponge wipes work hard to keep your home in ship shape.
