Advantages: so easy to use

Disadvantages: the price

I could never be accused of being house proud and I'm not famed for my tidy nature but when a visitor of mine threw up over one of my carpets I had no option but to get my carpets cleaned.

In my defence I should say here that I do have a cleaner every week so the house does get cleaned - but not by me :-)

Having received several quotations from companies who thought that a large house meant a large profit for them, not a large mortgage for me, I decided it would eventually be more cost effective to buy a carpet cleaner and be done with it.

I had no intention if using it myself, but was going to ask my friend to clean the carpets as penance for throwing up on them.

I looked on Dooyoo - made my choice of a steam cleaner and dashed off to the town to make my purchase.

As with all new things you have to have one little go with it yourself....I was hooked.

So far since Sunday afternoon I have cleaned all the bathrooms, kitchen including the cooker, all the wooden floors and the carpets - going up three storeys.

I am running out of things to clean and am getting desperate.

This cleaner is pure genius......using normal tap water you wait ten minutes for the water to heat to steam and then you just clean.

The steam lifts and loosens any dirt that is ground in so you just wipe it away. With carpets you can just run the cleaner over them or if there are difficult marks you can target them using the steam 'gun' All the acessories are included and I even cleaned the mirrors using the squeegie thing. They have two sizes, for windows and mirrors.

Can you tell I'm excited????

Stains that were there before I moved in have gone and the carpet, which is hoovered once a week, has shed dirt and cat hairs like there is no tomorrow.

Now - I don't want you thinking I am dirty at home, as I think if anyone used this cleaner they would be surprised at the dirt th
at comes up - but now I want to be dirty just to use the cleaner again!!

Have I reached that middle aged place where you start to put your herbs in alphabetical order, is this the time when the cardigans emerge and I start to think that mothballs are a useful thing to have around the house??

I hope not - I blame it on the cleaner which has woken up a part of me I didn't know existed...cleanliness around the home :-))
