Cleaning your entire house isn't as intimidating a process when you have all the right cleaning products for each and every room.  We found 17 top-rated cleaners, appliances, and tools that people swear by to clean their bathrooms, kitchens, living rooms, and bedrooms. They include a high-tech robot vacuum, a classic hand duster, and multi-use tools designed to save time, energy, and space. 
Even the thought of cleaning tires me out, and I usually have to spend a few hours (ok, more like days) mentally preparing for the chore. 

However, I've found that once I start cleaning one of the rooms in my apartment, I get into a productive groove that whisks me from bathroom to kitchen to living room to bedroom with montage-like ease.

Having both the mental strength to clean and a proper toolkit of products on hand will help you reach this cleaning groove and get the chore over as quickly and seamlessly as possible.

If you're equipped with thorough, durable, and easy-to-use cleaners and appliances, you can clean your entire home and barely break a sweat in the process. 

What products should you fill your cleaning basket with? We looked to the top-rated ones first to see what everyone else swears by to catch dust bunnies, clear out clogged drains, and make their countertops sparkle as much as when they first moved in. 
These 17 cleaning products are all highly rated best sellers you can use throughout your house, from the bathroom to the living room.
