Cooking a delicious meal for your friends and loved ones is pretty much the most exciting thing you can do in the kitchen. But the worst? Hands down, it has to be cleaning underneath your stove, since it's the appliance that sees the most action. The chore becomes even more of a fuss if you need to scoot out the appliance to clean under it, as it is super heavy and poses the risk of scratching or otherwise damaging your kitchen floor. Luckily, there's a workaround — the AURUZA Retractable Gap Duster. This clever cleaner isn't just affordable (only $10!), it's one of the best methods for cleaning under large kitchen appliances without moving them.

The out-of-sight area beneath your stove is one that's easily forgotten even by diligent cleaners and prone to collecting all kinds of junk, from spilled food and small crumbs to dust and pet hair. What's more, this nebulous space can even become a fire hazard or pest haven if it remains uncleaned. And while we know plenty of cleaning tips and tricks for a sparkling oven interior, we don't always know how to tackle what's underneath. Fortunately, with a gap duster by your side, you can clean underneath your stove like a pro without moving it.

With this retractable gap dust cleaner, you can easily clean hard-to-reach areas. Its telescoping handle extends out to 60 inches, ensuring you'll be able to clean all the way to the back wall and side to side underneath your stove. The panel measures roughly 3 inches wide and 17 inches long, and its flexible design allows you to bend it if needed for extra-tough spots.

The AURUZA gap duster comes with two microfiber cloth covers that are removable and washable, and you can use them either wet or dry, depending on your needs. It's easy to properly disinfect microfiber cloths after using them for cleaning. When you're done, the loop end lets you hang it up on a hook for easy storage. The duster has a 4.4-star rating on Amazon, with one reviewer stating, "This is great for getting under the fridge, stove, washer and dryer!! Best $10s I've ever spent!!"

As that enthusiastic review mentioned, you can also use the gap duster to clean underneath other appliances and furniture, between cabinets, and anywhere else around your house where there are hard-to-reach areas. The AURUZA Retractable Gap Duster is a must-have for any household, as it makes cleaning underneath your stove incredibly easy.
