Ready to put in the effort for a thorough bathroom clean? Before you start, make sure you choose the right equipment.
This is where functional, ergonomic, and easy-to-use bathroom cleaning tools become a practical solution for achieving optimal cleanliness. Here are some recommended options from IKEA.
A squeegee or glass cleaner for the shower area
A glass squeegee may look simple, but its role is crucial. The rubber blade helps remove leftover water from shower glass panels or mirrors immediately after use. Water stains, mold residue, and soap scum don’t get a chance to dry and stick.
IKEA glass cleaners feature handles made from durable, water-resistant polypropylene plastic with a comfortable grip. The blade is made from a mix of synthetic rubber, aluminum, and anodized material, making it easy to wipe clean after use.
A long-handled brush to reach difficult corners
IKEA’s long-handled brush sets are designed with replaceable brush heads and a versatile shape. This makes it easier to clean grout lines, tight corners, and even the area behind the toilet without damaging surfaces. No stubborn dirt is left behind to cause unpleasant odors.
A small brush for toilet cleaning
A compact toilet brush allows for more precise cleaning of the inner bowl and rim. With the right size and a comfortable handle, cleaning becomes more hygienic and efficient, with minimal splashing.
IKEA offers toilet brush sets in packs of two, available in two styles: handle-free and full-brush designs. Simply choose the one that suits your cleaning needs. Be sure to pair it with a liquid cleaner for a fresh, odor-free result.
Aesthetic storage for cleaning tools
Cleanliness is also about visual order. Storing cleaning tools and solutions in IKEA storage boxes or bathroom hooks keeps your bathroom tidy and pleasing to the eye. Tools are not left scattered around, helping maintain that hotel-like clean atmosphere, even when cleaning supplies are kept in the room.

Simple routines to keep your bathroom hygienic
The right tools work best when paired with simple, consistent habits. The good news is that maintaining a hygienic bathroom does not always require a lot of time or extra effort. With small daily routines, hotel-level cleanliness can last much longer.
“Clean as you go” technique after showering
Get into the habit of applying the clean-as-you-go concept. After showering, use a squeegee on wet walls and floors. This takes only about one minute, but the impact is significant.
Water residue doesn’t get the chance to dry and form stains, and floors stay dry and safe. As a result, you can reduce the frequency of tiring weekly deep cleaning sessions.
Focus on the sink and faucet area
Don’t overlook small details like faucets and sink areas. Simply wipe chrome faucets with a dry microfiber cloth to remove fingerprints and water splashes. This maintained metallic shine creates a strong visual effect, giving your bathroom a luxurious and premium-clean impression every time it’s used.
