When you have a carpet stain that won’t budge, a reliable steam cleaner will get the job done. While there are lots of steam cleaners on the market, only a few of these machines are worth the price. Below, you’ll find some of the top carpet cleaners available.
1. Hoover SteamVac Carpet Cleaner with Clean Surge

Pro: this carpet cleaner not only cleans carpets, but it has the ability to vacuum any space too. Due to its rugged 12-amp motor and two separate water tanks, this product is the number one carpet …

Hey folks, we’ve got another great article from Harriette Halepis. Today’s topic: Marble madness! No, not that the video game. We’re talking marble counters and marble floors. Marble’s nice – real nice – but if you don’t treat it right, you’ll have problems. Etched marbles, water streaks on marble, dull marble – all banes of any marble countertop owner. These tips should help you eliminate some of the common issues with marble counters and floors.
Managing Marble Floors and Countertops
Marble is the epitome of luxury, but keeping marble looking shiny …

Hey folks, earlier on the blog, I raved about the Bissell Little Green. Some of you later emailed me (why the email, people? Just use the comment box and share with the rest of the class!) and told me that you loved your Bissell Little Green, too, but have been having problems with the nozzle getting clogged. I did some reading and found that the sprayer not working on the Bissell Little Green is kind of a common problem. So common, in fact, that it happened to me the other …

The Bissell Little Green is a dream. As a pet owner for a somewhat incontinent puppy and  cat that urinates on furniture for revenge, I definitely owe my life to the Bissell Little Green. The Little Green is the perfect balance between portability, affordability and – best of all CLEANING POWER! I know this sounds like ad copy, but seriously – this $150 device paid for itself when I didn’t have to kick my $500 sofa to the curb or replace the $200 twin mattress on my guest  bed.
(Note: See …

Hi, folks! So, it’s good to see that some of you have noticed the contact form up top there. In fact, we got this lovely message just today:
Dear Cleaning Frenzy,
I wanted to pass along a great cleaning story with Cheryl Burke from Dancing With The Stars. If you have a moment, I though you and your readers would enjoy it.
Burke is perfecting a new routine for Detroit’s 83rd annual Thanksgiving Day parade – one of the country’s oldest and largest parades.
Her new partner may surprise you.  It’s the hot, new …

The holidays are nearly upon us – which means at any moment, that phone could ring with the in-laws on the other side saying “Hey, we landed early and we’re on our way to your house. We’ll be there in 20 minutes!” As luck would happen, this typically happens when your house is an absolute pig sty. (After all, who doesn’t put off house cleaning until the last minute?) But don’t freak out. By employing some emergency last minute cleaning tips, you can make your house look passable in no …

Hiya, Fancydancers! After writing about cleaning chandeliers and repairing chandeliers, I figured I’d keep up the luxury level and talk about oriental rugs. My grandparents had this Persian rug in their living room that I was never allowed to walk on, which I thought was absurd. The thing did stay perfect, though, but seriously, unless that Persian rug flies or has a dead body rolled up in it, there is no other reason to have an oriental rug (or any kind of carpet) than to walk on it. Sheesh.
So, anyway, …

Good morning my vapid vagabonds! Earlier, we discussed How to Remove Red Pen Ink From Upholstery. Today, we’re kicking it up a notch as we figure out how to remove toner ink from material, such as denim and other clothing. How would you get toner ink all over your pretty little jeans, you ask? I don’t know, but it happens. Perhaps from a copier room office tryst, no? Or maybe you just couldn’t wait before the ink on your TPS report dried before sitting on top of it. I don’t …

The afternoon is upon us, my rosy cheeked friends, and today we’ll be talking about linoleum. Yellow stained linoleum to be exact. Before we begin, let’s reflect upon a haiku that is the top Google hit for “linoleum sucks”:

Linoleum Sucks: A Haiku
twenty year old stains
vinyl linoleum taunts
my mop refuses
Thanks for that, “sugarbritches26.” Anyway, if you are anything  like me, you aren’t a big fan of linoleum floors. I’d rather see a movie with Larry the Cable Guy in it than a kitchen or, god forbid, a living room with linoleum …
