OMG...I want to clean....

I hate to wash my kitchen floors.  HATE. IT.  I hate it so much sometimes I just don't do it.  Whoever built this hours probably didn't think 50 years into the future about a family of 5 with 2 giant dogs who might not appreciate 260 square feet of white tile in the kitchen.  I don't appreciate it.  Especially in the spring, it is NOT appreciated. 

On my quest to do things outside of my comfort zone (cleaning, eating healthy, not yelling at the kids), I made a purchase.  Somewhat of a large purchase, but still under the "I should talk to my husband about this first" limit.  And I love it.  I am in love with it.  It is my new best friend.  I want to add it to my will.  I think every home in America should have it.


I know, right?  It's BEAUTIFUL!  It's MAGICAL!  It does things to a floor that you would NOT believe!  It washes, it dries, it vacuums.  It purrs...ok...well...it's actually a little louder than a vacuum, and that's another reason why I heart Hoover.  My kids and the dogs do not want to be NEAR me while I am running this machine.  And that's a good solid hour of alone time.  It has 7 little green spinny circle brushes that I can only compare to the HUGE machine the grade school janitor would use to buff the floor.  And they pop out so you can wash them if it was a particularly messy job.  The dirty water is in one place, the clean in another.  You can use your own soap (I am in love with Mr Clean Fabreeze (the green one)).  It dries in less than a minute.  You can use it on hard-wood.  Yup...I said it...dual purpose!  And if you ever get to that part of the floor where you wish you had swept first, it can vacuum, too!  Someone get me an infomercial!

Go get it...you know you want it....

"little louder than a vacuum"

I think NOT. This thing sounds like a freight train roaring past your head.

Otherwise, I love it because my wife loves to clean with it.

You have 260 feet of kitchen?? That's over a third of the square footage of my entire house. I wouldn't want to clean it, but I still kind of wish I had it...
