Dust Collector vs Vacuum Cleaner

November 13, 2020 by Polly Leave a Comment

I had just bought my new dream home, but one thing was obvious the day that I walked into it was which cleaning system I would need to work smarter and not harder.

After my finances had been depleted by buying a new home, I was not able to hire cleaning help and so I knew I would have to do it by myself.

And I didn’t want it to be time consuming. So, I thought about whether I should buy one of the new models of vacuum cleaners or a dust cleaner. I had to do some research and learned a few things or two about the difference between vacuum cleaners and dust cleaners as it relates to house cleaning.

How Automating Your Household Chores Can Free Up More Time For You

January 22, 2020 by Liv Leave a Comment

If you think about it, there are many household chores we all wish we could automate to make our life easier for us.

Chores such as cleaning the carpet, mowing the lawn, doing the dishes and laundry, cleaning your gutters and even feeding your pets can turn out to be very boring, repetitive and time wasting really fast.

Automation is the solution.

Automating these chores will not only free up more time for you, but will also save you the energy which you would otherwise have spent carrying them out. [Read more…] about How Automating Your Household Chores Can Free Up More Time For You

Vacuum cleaning robots invading homes all over the world

Other than washing the dishes, vacuuming the house is probably the most boring activity in the world, and probably only a very few sane humans would enjoy the activity. 

But household chores need to be done, and it is this human right to avoid boring tasks which the robots are exploiting to find their way into homes all over the world.

In the future, when we look back at how the robots took over everything, it’s probably not industrial robots which will be blamed – because they’re mostly caged off and controlled inside factories: it’s the vacuuming and other cleaning robots we should be scared of.

They might look innocent – with their rounded edges and small, apparently unintimidating size, maybe even reminiscent of a slow-moving pet cat, only better behaved – but vacuuming robots could be seen as the artificially intelligent machine army’s frontline infantry in the battle for the future of humanity, and they are gaining more and more floorspace every day.  [Read more…] about Vacuum cleaning robots invading homes all over the world
