House cleaning equipment, which one to choose is one of the main questions of women. In the modern world, one of the main resources is time. All progress strives to free it for man.
Every woman thinks about spending a minimum of time on cleaning while getting the maximum effect. After all, cleanliness in the house is the key to the health of the whole family.
How to do high-quality cleaning in 3 hours? There is an answer, you just have to approach the issue wisely and purchase modern equipment for cleaning your home. It helps to significantly reduce cleaning time, and some will completely take over some function. Let's consider the main assistants for cleaning the house.
Washing vacuum cleaner
A vacuum cleaner today is designed not only for collecting dust and small debris. Modern designs also allow you to quickly wash the floor. A washing vacuum cleaner is indispensable in a house where small children live. They constantly crawl around the apartment, collecting dirt and dust on their knees and elbows. With high-quality washing equipment, you don’t have to worry about the health of your kids.
It’s great if the vacuum cleaner has several types of attachments: for washing linoleum, laminate, tiles and carpet cleaning.
The latest models of washing vacuum cleaners are equipped with a steam function. This allows you to not only wash surfaces, but also disinfect them. Steaming is also useful for fleecy surfaces: the carpet for children's games will always be not only clean, but also soft and fluffy.
Bucketless room cleaning
A way to tidy without buckets
Cleaning rooms using buckets has become a common practice. Professional cleaning companies do not forget about this method. Moreover, the method is known all over the world. It’s quite difficult to give it up, but it’s time for a change. It was replaced by a bucketless method of cleaning. These are mops mounted on a mop with or without spin. This option is common in Europe. It was invented in Finland in the 80s. Popular in medical institutions.
Bucketless cleaning process:
- Use prepared mops to wipe the required area.
- The contaminated part of the equipment is immersed in a container.
- Next, use another mop.
Mops are prepared in advance by soaking them with an antibacterial agent. Already used mops are washed and disinfected. Thus, a repeating cycle occurs. The material used for attachments should be microfiber. It absorbs dirt better and is easy to wash. The bucketless cleaning method meets the sanitary requirements established in Russia.
This method has a number of advantages:
- takes less time;
- saves money and water;
- the quality of cleaning improves;
- the cost of purchasing mops is reduced;
- A smaller staff of cleaners can cope.
Note! When choosing cleaning assistants, it is better to use battery-powered devices. Since the cable can limit the actions
In this case, the battery power must be sufficient.
Electric broom or upright vacuum cleaner
The need for an electric broom is often questioned by owners of vacuum cleaners and ordinary brooms. However, this device has a number of features and advantages:
- It draws in debris, especially large ones. The device sucks up hair, crumbs, fur and regular dust in seconds.
- Compact dimensions provide convenient storage.
- Modern models are wireless, which means that the owner does not depend on the wire and does not worry that someone will get caught on it.
- An electric broom will help out when guests are on the doorstep, but the apartment is not cleaned; it is also indispensable for daily quick cleaning in the kitchen and hallway - mothers on maternity leave especially well understand what we are talking about. Cleaning is much more convenient and faster for them than with a massive vacuum cleaner or an ordinary broom.
Robot vacuum cleaner
It is a small and rather expensive device, but it is truly indispensable in a home with children and furry pets. Despite the cost, more and more families are choosing an electronic assistant.
Fortunately, the market offers not only the most sophisticated gadgets of this type, but also simpler robotic vacuum cleaners, for example, which need to be pushed if they are stuck in a corner - a small drawback, and the price is reduced significantly. Good models, in addition to dry cleaning, are capable of wiping floors and pile coverings, and working as a floor polisher.
Types of inventory
The process of putting things in order is improved and made easier every year. Even an ordinary mop no longer resembles a wooden triangle with a rag. Just like cleaning itself, equipment for it has its own classification.
Equipment for manual cleaning
The following tools are used for dry cleaning:
- scoop with long and short handles;
- broom, brush with a long or short handle (improved broom).
The advantages of the brush are its durability, and the long handle allows you not to tire your back.
For wet and wet cleaning you will need two main items.
- Bucket (plastic, galvanized, enameled). Recently, plastic buckets have been predominantly used.
- Mop – with a sponge, with a platform, wooden, rope. Mops are also available in straight and angular shapes.
Equipment for mechanical cleaning
There are two main types of equipment for dry cleaning.
- Vacuum cleaner (with a dust collector, with an aqua filter, container and cyclone vacuum cleaners without bags). Modern models are also used for wet cleaning.
- Sweeper (mechanical, battery-powered, internal combustion engine, with operator's seat).
For wet cleaning you will need the following mechanisms.
- Washing machine. Typically used for large industrial premises. The size is selected according to the area being cleaned.
- Steam generator (electric, diesel, industrial).
- Carpet cleaning machine. For dry and wet dry cleaning of pile coverings.
Polisher
Another assistant in cleaning floor surfaces. The floor polisher does not require much effort from the owner: just turn on the device and walk around the house with it with your head held high. Everything is washed to a shine, unpleasant odors disappear. The gadget is especially useful in large apartments and private houses.

Xiaomi SWDK Electric Mop D260
A wonderful assistant in cleaning the apartment. It polishes floors well, in particular laminate. I wash the floors every day, since there is a large shaggy dog in the apartment who wants to regularly walk and trample in the apartment and + a one-year-old child. With an electric mop, cleaning floors now takes much less precious time and effort. I poured some water, sprayed it and went ahead to polish the floor without any effort! The battery charge is enough to clean a three-room apartment with a reserve. A very maneuverable brush, it turns in different directions, and it cleans well the floor near the baseboards and furniture standing on the floor. Backlighting helps out in dark places (under the sofa, under the table). The mop is light, moves almost on its own during operation, without putting pressure on it, and is not noisy. Came well packaged, in the original box, all parts in polystyrene foam. The only thing is that the plug is not for a European socket, but the seller of the online store immediately warned me about this and offered to immediately buy an adapter from them. The instructions are in Chinese, but this is not important, I opened the Internet, YouTube, a bunch of videos about the operation of this mop! In general, I’m happy with the product, I haven’t been using it for very long yet, we’ll see how it performs in future work!

Easy to use, everything is clear and quite convenient. The pads are large and high quality, we have been using them intensively for 3 months now, they do not tear or come apart into threads. It is convenient that the water does not flow by gravity, and if necessary, you can adjust the flow in front of the mop. In idle mode, water remains in the container. It scrubs the floor quickly, and with proper care of the pads (washing) it does not leave streaks on the floor. A very useful thing, if you get into the habit of not pouring excess water, one refill is enough for the whole apartment. We use it every day, both young and old, everyone loves it.

For those who don't want to spend a lot of time cleaning. Pros: Mobility, compactness, removes stains well, wastes little water, 100 sq.m. is 2-3 containers, does not leave streaks on the laminate (it’s better to buy the RM534 laminate product with it, the result is a gun (see photo), but with the fact that included in the kit, I had to adapt so as not to leave streaks) It takes about 20 minutes for the entire 100 sq. m apartment, the floor shines like a cat’s, well, you understand me) I am the owner of 4 different cleaning devices, which appeared as inventions and necessity, and I think that the review will be more interesting if you compare them with the KARCHER FC 7 electric mop for an apartment of 100 sq.

Perhaps the ideal cleaning mop. There are no streaks, solid waste is collected in a separate container, and only dirty water remains in the dirty water container. The hair is also collected on a separate brush. Comfortable, lightweight, maneuverable and stylish. Overall, I gave it 4 stars, but before buying you should prepare for the fact that sooner or later the battery will die and then you will have to spend money again. A container of water is enough for a maximum of 20-30 sq. m. But it only takes 1 minute to fill it up and put it down.

KARCHER FC 7 Cordless
1. It does wet cleaning well, which is what it is actually intended for. 2. You don’t have to vacuum the floor, although it is advisable to do it anyway. 3. Accordingly, the device is suitable not only for cleaning the house, but also for quickly cleaning or wiping something. 4. Cleaning requires no effort at all. 5. Works quietly. 6. The battery is quite capacious. 7. Gives the impression of a quality item, made well and neatly. 8. There is a self-cleaning mode, which is useful to prevent dirt from accumulating on the device. 9. Good design, easy to control, easy to clean under furniture. Passes under hanging plumbing. 10. For many operations you don’t even need to bend down. It wastes more water than FC5, the floor is wetter, in my opinion, excessively wet - and this is in the first mode. On the second there is even more water. This may be due to the fact that the device is wireless, and thus compensates for the lower power. Small stains may remain on the floor, apparently due to too much water. However, it washes cleanly. It perfectly collects hair and small debris, while the hair is collected on the built-in brushes, they are quite easy to clean. In general, a chic thing, in my opinion, should be in any home. The ideal companion for your robot vacuum cleaner. A small addition. To ensure that no streaks remain, it is better to use detergent for washing vacuum cleaners rather than Karcher. There will be more foaming, the dirty water tank will have to be emptied a little more often, but the result will be better. The native remedy turned out to be not very good, despite the fact that it is quite expensive. You just need to add a few drops of the product to the tank.

The napkins included in the kit are very good and wash away any dirt, but after repeated cleanings they must be washed in a washing machine, otherwise they will completely lose their appearance. There is enough water in the tank to wash the entire apartment or until the mop runs out. The remote control, the battery - everything is removable and can be easily changed in case of breakdown or need, this was one of the factors in favor of this model. Our child loves to walk with her like a toy. We give it to him, he walks and washes
