Let’s be frank – our modern lifestyle leaves little time for cleaning. Sometimes dust accumulates, and empty packages, cups, and plates pile up in the rooms unless we spend our whole day walking around the house. That’s why we decided to describe some easy ways to clean three main rooms at home quickly. Each will take you no more than 15-20 minutes but significantly improve the home’s appearance.

Quickly refresh the living room

The living room is where everyone spends the most time. It is often more cluttered than other rooms and gets dirty faster. Here’s how to quickly clean this room:

• You often leave at least one or two cups on the coffee table, even if the room is clean. Collect and put them in the kitchen sink or the dishwasher.
• If there are packages of popcorn, chips, or plastic bottles, collect them and throw them in the trash.
• Wipe dust off the TV and other black appliances – instantly refreshing the living room.
• Quickly run a vacuum cleaner around the table and sofa – it usually collects the most dust, crumbs and small debris.
• Clean your pet’s hair from furniture.
• Leave the cleaning of the curtains, upholstery, windows and carpet when you have time for a more thorough home cleaning.

Quick kitchen cleaning

• It is the other room in the house that gets dirty quickly. Here are some tips for quick kitchen cleaning:
• Collect empty packages and old leftovers and throw them in the trash.
• If dirty dishes, cups and utensils are left on the table, put them in the sink or dishwasher.
• Wipe the counter tops and table with a damp cloth and surface cleaner. If you prefer environmentally friendly home cleaning, use vinegar and water.
• Sweep the floor, at least around the counter and dining table. If you are not in a hurry – wash the tiles with a mop immersed in warm water in which you put a few drops of detergent.
• Leave the big tasks – like cleaning the oven and refrigerator – for another time.

Clean the bathroom and toilet quickly

If you need more time to clean the house, use these tips to clean the bathroom and toilet quickly.

• Rinse the inside of the toilet bowl with disinfectant and leave it on for 10-15 minutes.
• Put 1-2 drops of disinfectant on a damp sponge and wash the sink and shower faucets.
• Pour 1-2 caps of detergent into a bucket of warm water and wipe the floor.
• Replace used face and body towels with clean ones.
• Wipe the mirror with a suitable detergent and a towel.
• Rinse the disinfectant from the toilet as soon as you have finished everything else.

If you often apply these tricks to refresh the living room, kitchen and bathroom quickly, you will save a lot of effort when it comes time for a more thorough house cleaning.

Dust cleaning at a higher level

Blankets, pillows, bathrobes, curtains and other textiles trap house dust and create it as they disintegrate and crumble. Curtains and draperies are dusty because they absorb moisture and dirt from the outside. The best idea is to buy washing machine items and wash them twice a year. Textile products that cannot be washed in the washing machine can clean in the dryer with a heat-free program for 20 minutes and a damp cloth. It will attract pet hair, and the swirling movements and airflow will remove smaller particles.

Cleaning under the carpet

The carpet is the largest tank of house dust. It is a source of fibre and absorbs dust particles like a giant sponge. In addition to its soft part on top, its reverse part also contains dust. It is best to clean the top and bottom regularly if you suffer from allergies. Although it may be time-consuming to lift the carpet, which is laid from end to end in the room, ask for help and try to go with the vacuum cleaner and below. If this makes you uncomfortable, make a radical decision and replace carpets with hard floors such as laminate, wood, tile or vinyl. Clean regularly with a cleaning solution and a microfibre cloth. Sweeping redistributes the dust rather than removing it.

Robot vacuum cleaner

If your pet’s fur is constantly in your home or children always spill and stain something, then the robot vacuum cleaner is the best investment you can make in the name of your clean house. This solution will help you not feel tired from constantly bending over, wiping, and dusting dirt.

Choose the right robot vacuum cleaner for you

Orient yourself to one that cleans itself without your intervention. At the same time, it must be powerful and capable of precise navigation. This way, you will not have to constantly operate the robot vacuum cleaner, move it manually, and direct it with a remote control so that it does not collide with objects in your home.

Precise navigation and efficient cleaning

The robot vacuum cleaner cleans your home more thoroughly and efficiently thanks to accurate maps of the premises, reasonable location calculation and optimisation of the cleaning trajectory. The ability to set “restricted areas” for the robot, which prevent it from operating in certain places, despite the lack of a physical barrier, is also beneficial. Conversely, you can specify areas where you want it to be cleaned. For example, such an area may be under the dining table after a family dinner when the floor below is full of crumbs and the rest of your home is clean.

Effective cleaning of any flooring

The highly efficient brush of the robot vacuum cleaner has thin fibres of soft textile fabric and antistatic silver threads. The extractors press the hairs to not become entangled around the brush. With the possibility of remote control, you can control its operation in real-time, no matter where you are. You can let it clean while you’re in the office, and when you get home, enjoy your clean home and relax on the couch.

The camera is also a fun and functional extra for the new intelligent vacuum cleaners. You can observe your home from a distance when you are out and want to check if everything is OK at home. You can also monitor what your pet does while you’re at work and where it hides your personal belongings, which mysteriously disappear.

These robots simplify housekeeping, taking total care of the home’s cleanliness.

Prevent the accumulation of dust

Preventing the accumulation of dust is an almost impossible task. However, reducing the amount of dust in your home is quite feasible. Changing some decorations and cleaning regularly can prevent dust from accumulating in your home. Here are some ways to reduce dust accumulation:

1. Keep windows and doors closed;
2. Use mats;
3. Maintain the flooring;
4. Change and wash bed linen and towels every week;
5. Get rid of unnecessary items that collect dust;
6. Use appropriate cleaning tools – for example, a microfibre cloth, not a feather brush;
7. Take care of your pets.
