Often in my research (and daily life), I come across cleaning products that claim to be multipurpose but really only work efficiently for one or two kinds of messes and stains — so I am used to approaching such declarations with skepticism. But every once in a while I stumble upon a truly effective, versatile product that warrants high praise, as is the case with Gumption cleaning paste.

I first encountered this Australian household cleaning staple a few years ago when I first started dating my (Aussie) partner, Veronica, who would whip it out from under her sink to tackle everything from dirty, stained dishes to scrubbing the bathtub. There is really nothing this amazing product can’t clean, and luckily for those of us who live stateside, it’s available on Amazon Prime for under $20.

This cleaning wunderkind couldn’t be easier to use. It comes as a concentrated powder that you apply to a damp cloth or sponge to quickly and efficiently wipe away stains and filth. It’s formulated with natural abrasive particles that somehow are able to clean even the most intense of messes without causing scratches or damage.

Like most Australians, Veronica swears by it for just about everything but is particularly enthusiastic about Gumption’s dish-cleaning prowess. She says, “It works like magic, there is nothing it cannot remove. It makes stainless steel shiny and removes all food that might be very tough to clean and stuck. It essentially exfoliates everything away — your pots and pans will be sparkling clean.”
