Buying economy size laundry detergents may be cost effective, but they can be messy to store. The Tidy-Cup attachment is designed to prevent mess and ensure none of your detergent goes to waste, and that your laundry area stays mess-free.

Customer review: “I purchased this item because I store my laundry detergent and softener containers on a shelf above the washer and dryer. There were drips regularly even when the caps were placed back on after use. I saw this gadget and thought.....why not. Well I am very happy that I purchased it. I have used this item after purchasing it over a year ago, and I still LOVE it. No more drips. The cup can sit on the little shelf, and makes very handy. It fits on any dispenser size detergent container. This gadget is awesome!”

I first used this product after spilling makeup on a dress before a wedding. In a panic, a family member dabbed Grandma’s Secret Spot Remover and spot cleaned the spill and my dress was good-as-new. I immediately went out and bought my own bottle and have used this to remove everything and anything from my clothes in a pinch.

Customer review: “Really happy with this product. Purchased with hopes it would remove dried and set grease spots. I had tried a ton of other spot removers that didn't work - but this removed them completely the first wash! It also removed some ground in dirt stains on my kids clothes as well.”
