Oxo Good Grips Roller Mop
I was really pleased when I was asked if I would review some cleaning products for Oxo, indeed I was like kid in a sweet shop trying to decide what I’d like to review! In the end I plumped for the Roller Mop because although I do like my current one it’s heads seem to wear out really quickly as the sponge is so open and porous. Then, as I have lots of hard to reach places that I end up having to use the vacuum cleaner on, I chose the Microfibre Extendable Duster. So then I had to find a way of conveying the usage of these items as snap shots were not really going to cut the mustard with a cleaning review, so I decided to make a video – yep sacrificing my dignity for the enhancement of your knowledge, I hope you appreciate my selflessness here as I do hate the sound of my own voice contrary to my family’s belief!
Oxo Good Grips Microfiber Extendable Duster
The Roller Mop features non-slip handles for easy wringing and can absorb 450 mls of water. There are scrubbing stips on the mop head which look really robust and there is also a bulit in antibacterial treatment to stop bacterial growth and odours. Durable rollers squeeze the water out of the mop and to change the head you just push the wringing handle forward. The mop retails at £25. I found the mop much lighter than my current mop even though it is bigger, due to the aluminium pole. The mop head is also bigger and therefore the time spent cleaning the floor is reduced. My only niggle was that the floor didn’t seem as dry after washing with my old mop but I probably didn’t plunge the wringing handle enough to fully dry the mop head (I was making a video after all!) I do think that the mop head looks like it will last much longer than my old mop head and the scrubbing strips were really good on stubborn stains on the floor. The Microfibre Extendable Duster has an aluminium light weight body and a 270° lockable angled head so that you can dust on one side and when dirty flip over so that you can use the other side. You can lock the duster in the vertical position to clean ceiling vents or at a right angle to clean on top of book shelves etc. The microfiber duster is detachable and washable in a washing machine but I think a good shaking outside will suffice for a long time! I loved using this duster to getting in between the struts on my staircase and is excellent for skirting and all the hard to reach places that otherwise only a vacuum can reach. Having put my back out once using my mother’s vacuum cleaner to do a de-cobwebbing I think this telescopic duster with its reach of 137cm/54″ is a god send. It’s like a feather duster only it absorbs the dust rather than spreading it everywhere! The duster is priced at £15. Anyway they say a picture tells a thousand words so don’t take my word for it, watch the video and then enter the competition to win your own set!

A large bag like a suit carrier where you can hang clothes press a button and steam makes the creases drop out. Simplifies ironing – especially the fiddly bits.

I go with oven cleaning too. Hate it with a passion. Something should be invented where you can heat a pan of something in the oven and it will clean ALL the gunk and fat off everything inside, i.e. racks, walls, elements and glass door. Now wouldn’t that be great??

Cleaning the windows. I never seem to get a perfect result.
I watched a demo at an Ideal Home Exhibition of a magnet double sided window cleaning gadget . The demonstrator showed how it magically glided over the window and there wasn’t a streak to be seen. I paid my £20. Well a) the magnet is so strong it could easily break my clumsy fingers in a second and b) what a Wally I am – I forgot we have decorative lead strips on the outside of the windows – guaranteed to prevent any glide!

Any cleaning chore is horrendous in our house – toilets (because we agreed they’d be OH’s job when I moved in, but I still seem to do them even though he’s the one that’s messy in the bathrooms), vacuuming would be ok although as soon as I do it, there’re bits from the farm & wood brought in.

I hate dusting and the aching arms trying to reach difficult spots. That extendable duster with the ability to angle the head would reach all those awkward places I currently need to use the hoover’s extension tube for. But anything that makes cleaning easier, I’m in favour of.

I hate ironing and dusting. Ironing is back breaking and tiring. I wish there was a machine to hang clothes on a hanger that steams out the wrinkles for me. I don’t like dusting because I have asthma and sometimes when the dust flies in the air it hits me in the face which can trigger an attack. I wish there was a system that would collect all the dust in a vacuum system around the house for me.

I hate ironing. I’m tall, and even though I have a special ‘extra high’ ironing board, I find my back aches after just five minutes ironing – I’d LOVE a gadget that you could put clothes in and seconds later they’d come out crease free!

I absolutely hate trying to dry the clothes! Love washing, love having washing on the line in the nice weather, but during the winter and miserable days there is washing drying all over the house and I hate it! I actually get excited when the sun is out because it means I can dry stuff outside!!

There are two jobs I absolutely detest doing at home and they are the ironing and cleaning the windows, hubby has bought a window vac so has declared the windows are his, now if I could find a way to convince him to do the ironing too that would be great. I tend to watch a crime/thriller/drama while ironing to make my time go quicker – makes it seem like less of a chore if Im watching something good.
Thanks for the chance to win x

IRONING! I hate it.
My mother in law used to iron the towel, socks everything & I always felt intimitaded by this, My husband, used to, expect all his underwear ironed – he soon got the idea that that was definately a no no unless he was going to do it himself! LOL
I wished I lived nearer my daughter as she loves ironing & I’d gladly pay her to do ours.
