Home Things

The things you live with, and the ones you put up with.

Most poopular · Cleaning

Public votes set the order. #1 is the most pooped.

Broom Cleaning

Stiff bristles for outdoors, soft for indoors. Using the wrong one mostly moves dust into the air.

Drying rack Cleaning

Slower than a dryer and free to run, and it puts the moisture into the room you are standing in.

Dustpan Cleaning

The rubber lip matters more than the pan: without a flat seal, the last line of dust never comes up.

Ironing board Cleaning

Folds flat and stores badly, and there is no good place to keep it in any home ever built.

Laundry basket Cleaning

Storage for a task, which is why it fills faster than it empties.

Mop Cleaning

Wet mopping moves dirt into the water, so how often the water is changed decides how well it works.

Recycling bin Cleaning

What may go in it is decided locally, so the same packaging is recyclable in one town and not the next.

Robot vacuum Cleaning

Maps a room and covers it in passes, which takes longer than a person would and happens while nobody is watching.

Tumble dryer Cleaning

A heavy electricity user, because turning water into vapor takes a lot of energy.

#10

Vacuum cleaner Cleaning

Suction at the head is what cleans; the number printed on the box usually measures the motor instead.

#11

Washing machine Cleaning

Most cleaning comes from time and detergent rather than heat, which is why cold cycles work better than expected.

#12

Wheelie bin Cleaning

Sized to the collection truck's lifting mechanism, not to the household, which is why the shape is standard.
