An overflowing under-sink cabinet, brooms spilling out of cupboards, and enough cleaning cloths to last a lifetime: If this sounds familiar, you may need a compact and versatile cleaning system to help reclaim your storage space.
As I'm currently in the process of a house move, I'm streamlining my cleaning tool clutter once and for all, which is why I am glad to have spotted the $24 IKEA PEPPRIG Cleaning Set.
With a cleverly compact design, it's perfect for storing in even the smallest of apartments, and comes complete with all the essential cleaning tools everyone needs to refresh your whole home at an impressively affordable price.
All prices were correct at the time of publication.
This cleaning set includes a telescopic handle, flat mop head, duster, gap-clean cover, microfiber clean pad, two-in-one squeegee/microfiber pad, one brush head, and two self-adhesive hangers for the mop.
A cleaning tool that's clever, compact, and convenient to store − just like the IKEA PEPPRIG Cleaning Set − ticks all my boxes for a decluttered utility room or undersink storage area.
When deep-cleaning your house, having a 'one-stop shop' with you as you move around will save you so much time and energy, especially when paired with our expert cleaning tips.
The IKEA kit's telescopic handle is adjustable from 30 to 50 inches (handy if you're small like me) and makes cleaning up high, down low, and under awkward spaces like beds, fridges, and cabinets far more accessible than traditional tools. The smart lock mechanism also makes it effortlessly easy to change the cleaning head mid-task.
As the cloths are microfiber, they work well for dusting, polishing, and shining surfaces, even without detergent, and have the added benefit of being machine washable, too. Just remember to skip the laundry softener, as this will coat the microfiber hairs and reduce its ability to absorb liquid.
And, when it comes to small, storage-less home solutions, the included hangers mean you can attach the tool to your wall, keeping it out of the way yet easily accessible at all times.
The price of the IKEA set is one of its biggest draws, as I've been a long-time devotee to the Joseph Joseph CleanTech kit (and do very much feel it's worth the $80 price tag), but if you're on the hunt for something a little more affordable, the IKEA PEPPRIG Cleaning Set is a perfect alternative. It's also an excellent set for a second home, dorms, or a guest house.
What Shoppers Say
'A great set!' reads a recent five-star review on the IKEA site from verified buyer Kim. 'This is an all-inclusive cleaning set which is designed to make your life easier and cleaning more efficient. The multiple attachments meet a variety of different needs in your home.
'A welcome addition to your own housekeeping routine or makes a great housewarming gift for friends or family.'
I couldn't agree more − pair it with some beautifully scented cleaning products, like the Method Pink Grapefruit All-Purpose Cleaner, available at Walmart, and you'll have a thoughtful gift that any new homeowner likely doesn't already have, and would be delighted to receive.
Another, from Maria, calls it a 'must-have,' and adds, 'I love this, it literally has everything you need to clean. We just bought a new house, and the master bathroom has tile up to the ceiling, nine feet high. This helped me reach everything without needing a stepping stool,' while a third, from Shelise, echoes, 'I can get so many cleaning jobs done with just this one set.'
It's worth noting that some reviews say the adhesive storage hooks do not stay on, but many reference a short window for curing. Punteha van Terheyden, Head of Solved, advises, 'Place the adhesive on a dry, clean surface, press hard to remove air bubbles, and then leave it for 24 hours. Do not load it a minute sooner. I've never had an adhesive drill-free mount fall off with this installation method.'
So, if, like me, you're looking to cut your housekeeping clutter for good, upgrade your set-up with the IKEA PEPPRIG Cleaning Set for a versatile and affordable fix.

I fell in love with this cleaning set when I tested it almost a year ago. It's since become an invaluable part of my routine, and it's what I always reach for, whether I need to dust, scrub, or shine.
This non-toxic cleaning spray is another staple in my routine. I'm yet to try this particular scent profile, but there's something about a rainwater scent that I find so appealing, and the spray is so effective.
This mop is suitable for use on tile, wood, laminate, vinyl, and more, and features an adjustable handle to help reduce back strain. The unique triangular shape makes it easy to get right into corners.
This bucket and caddy combo is perfect for storing your PEPPRIG cleaning heads. It conveniently includes a coarse bottom for cleaning your tools as you go.
This little brush makes light work of any stains and grime in hard-to-reach cracks and crevices. I mainly use mine in the bathroom, but it's also ideal for getting into the grooves around your kitchen faucet.
I've genuinely lost count of the number of times I've been recommended, and recommended myself, microfiber cloths, but they're not usually as pretty as these, which are all soft, absorbent, and quick to dry. Combine with other IKEA to hit the minimum $35 for delivery.
If you're not quite ready to fully upgrade your setup just yet, even taking the time to organize under your sink can make a world of difference to cleaning efficiency.
