If it gets lots of use, your toaster can quickly develop marks on top and it can take a lot of effort to make it look good again.
But one woman has found an easy trick that she says can get the appliance shining.
Her secret is to use something we all have in our bathrooms – toothpaste.
Posting on the Facebook group Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips and Tricks, Tricia Hamill showed the before and after photos.
She said: ‘The things we do during a lockdown!’
To use the toothpaste, she applied a thin layer over the top and then got an old toothbrush to scrub away the stains.
The toothpaste gently exfoliates the bits that are stuck on to remove them from the shiny surface.
Once these bits are gone, it’s just a case of polishing it up.
Trica’s post impressed others in the group and others were keen to give it a go.
One said: ‘Wow I must try this.’
Another added: ‘Oh my goodness, this looks amazing.’
Some even shared their own tips for using toothpaste in your cleaning routine.
‘I use it to clean my iron,’ one person explained.
It’s not the only storecupboard essential that can help with the housework.
Vinegar is also great for everything from the toilet bowl to unclogging the sink.
And if you want to make your shower screen or mirrors sparkle, one woman suggests using cheap shampoo and a squeegee, before rinsing it all down.
