Though it may seem grueling, enjoying a healthy home isn't as hard you may think.
Think Smarter Not Harder With These Home Products That Make Life Easier

With spring comes a fresh wave of energy. This is especially true at home, whether cleaning, reorganizing or cooking!  Many find themselves welcoming spring by giving their home the boost it needs — and this year even more so than others, especially after months on end of being at home.

In a recent survey conducted by The American Cleaning Institute, 78% of Americans confirmed they engage in spring cleaning yearly, mainly prioritizing bedrooms closets, kitchens and family rooms. Whether you plan to give your home a complete deep cleaning or you simply want a spring refresh, having the right home essential items will help you do it all.

Though it may seem grueling, enjoying a healthy home isn’t as hard you may think. You just need the right products to help you do it. Here are a few products that will help you think smarter, and not harder.

01
Roborock S7
Roborock recently introduced a new robot vacuum and mop designed to deliver a more powerful mopping experience than ever before. The Roborock S7 is tough enough to tackle any mess in its path including dried-on dirt and liquids. Its key features include high-intensity scrub settings powerful enough to disintegrate surface dirt and break up dried-on messes and its smart home-connected through Alexa, Google Home and Siri.

Lemi Shine
Lemi Shine is a safer, affordable, yet effective line of cleaning products that are formulated with plant-based ingredients, including citric acid. And, since everyone is cleaning more these days, it’s a good time to rethink the overuse of harsh chemicals. Lemi Shine is the perfect alternative to harsh chemicals when it comes to disinfecting surfaces that little hands (or paws) can reach.
