When I live in the city and was on muncipal water, these were excellent. Now that I live in a rural area with hard well water, these don't seem to be as effective and sometimes need a little help.
I'm not sure if I should hold them responsible when it's very likely the fault of my water and it's likely nothing else would do much better, but it's a little bit disappointing that there was such a massive difference in effectiveness when we moved. (Using the same dishwasher, so it's not that).
I would recommend, as long as you don't have very hard water or don't mind giving these a little help (I add baking soda to the wash water to soften).

The blue dawn ultra is the best. If I had to choose only one product for cleaning, this would be it! I don't know what else there is to say about that.
However, I also have really sensitive skin, as well as being very scent sensitive and
so I have problems finding hand soaps I can use that don't cause dermatitis on my hands. I've been using blue dawn to wash my hands for years. Yes, I try other products here and there - ones that are more "natural", and completely dye & fragrance free, but always come back to dawn. Even though it is excellent at grease fighting when it comes to dishes and cleaning, it is somehow less harsh and drying on my hands than most hand washes meant for sensitive skin. I have even tried the sensitive dawn, and I still prefer the old blue.

If you've ever tried the dollarstore steel wool to clean anything, you know these are far superior and not much if at all more expensive in reality. They hold together much better and are more effective, and easier on the skin if you don't tend to wear gloves while cleaning, like me.
Great for burnt on gunk and grease, and general scrubbing power.

I've been using comet to clean my sinks and stove tops for as long as I can remember. It's very cost effective, it doesn't have a strong, unpleasant fragrance added like most cleaners, and it works! You can use a little or a lot, use a brush, scowering pad, sos pad, or just a cloth depending on what you're cleaning. It rinses cleanly out of my sinks, but if you use too much or leave so long it dries completely on the stove top it can take a little bit of doing to rinse with a cloth, but still nothing major. -

These lysol wipes are not something that are used everyday in my home as I like to limit single-use items, but they are something I keep around the kitchen and bathroom "just in case". Those just in case circumstances usually involve a cold/flu bug and wiping down all the door knobs, etc as quickly and efficiently as possible, wiping down counters (or the fridge) after contact with raw meats if I am not able to thoroughly wash right away, and to give the toilet a quick wipe down as needed.
I find these wipes plenty effective and useful. They are wet enough to get most jobs done without going through many wipes.
Very handy.
