thank goodness for the internet, stuff like this is something my parents never taught me how to do and i felt a little overwhelmed trying to figure it out by myself. if i could have a chore-bot do something for me, it would have to be either cleaning my shower or putting away my laundry! i'm chronically ill and if i stand up for too long i start to feel really faint and sore, so having that help would be game-changing.
I am so glad i saw someone clean their bathroom floor by hand. It is so much quicker and easier. And you know how much cleaner it is. I clean my baseboards at the same time.
Hi Melissa really liked this video. Could you do a video on how to tie all routines together. Like daily tasks, weekly tasks, monthly deep cleaning. Some sort of idea ....would be great for working moms. You should write a book about cleaning...
A book about cleaning? I think I have one! That being said, we are shooting this week and a task video is a great idea! I'll pass it onto the production team. Thanks for the comments!
My robot pick would have to be one that cleans the toilet! Mine is swished daily, so it really isn’t that bad, I just dislike cleaning it! As to the bathroom floor, I used to clean it as you do, but age has prevented that now. Love your channel! This 72 year old has learned so much from you, but I think my favorite, besides the 3 Wave system, has to be the S pattern for cleaning. What a game changer!
You're still showing up in my feed. You must have good algorithms. Saturday reset for me today. I do need to wash my sheets, but I need more money for my laundry card. I got to do one load of laundry today.
That’s kinda of a goal, but I go to my walk to run early on Saturday and run errands. I feel so lazy on Saturday afternoons, but Sunday seems to work better for more cleaning.
I use the on the floor method for my bathrooms. I can get behind the toilet and it’s easy to get the baseboards. With 3 bathrooms and a powder room, it is also a bonus exercise routine 👍
I'm glad my video could provide you with the motivation you needed! Once you start and do it regularly other things seem easier! Let's get this done together and thanks for tuning in! Melissa
I also clean my bathroom floor by hand. There are some small corners at least in my bathroom and flat mop could not enter them so it is easier to do it by hand. Besides, I believe that the pressure on stains is harder with hand than by mop, when we actually stand.
Hehe thank you. This channel is so great, so colorfull and so attractive to watch. Makes you want to clean immediately! Nice weekend for entire cms team! @@cleanmyspace
SO glad that you use different cloths for the bathroom countertops & the sink! It grosses me out when people use the same cloth, especially when they wipe the sink first! UGH! Bathroom floor washed by hand works too. You can clean the baseboards at the same time. AND thanks for washing your gloves! I’m such a germaphobe!🤪
I feel quite good after seeing this. We have 2 main clean days in our house. Tuesday and Fri. The floors get hoovered and mopped, the bathroom gets done top to bottom, sheets get changed 1 of those days. In between we do general kitchen and bathroom bits like cleaning surfaces and the loo daily. Once a month all the floors get steamed as do all the doors and kitchen cabinet doors. The skirting get a wipe down. It's taken a long time to get to this routine with my disabilities. We have windows washed mo they as well and the garden is mowed 2 weekly. We do other bits like my bedroom/sitting room floor mopping daily as I have dogs. It's also been known for my sheets to be changed 3 times a week.
It's only this organised because my son is my main carer. Before this I was lucky to clean my floors each month. At one point it was a few months of non cleaning them because I couldn't physically cope with them
Hey pretty Melissa, thanks for sharing your routine and the reminder, that good enough is the state to strive for! Also, Chads cameo in the bathroom mirror was cute 😂 My robot would have to make the trash plus everything disgusting disappear, plus clean himself afterwards. Could you give some tips for that topic maybe? How to clean out trashcans if the bag leaked and made a mess, without throwing up? Also for pet owners, how to best and easy treat the messes they can make, also if you don’t discover it immediately..? And yes, it’s always on the carpet.
Also as you guys absolutely are experts: lately I had a discussion Wheatley to clean the lint immediately after the dryer is done, because it removes easier if it’s not completely dry and set yet (just as food on a plate), or to wait till it’s cooled off so the plastic netting that catches it doesn’t deform and wear out. Thanks! Your 3-waves have absolutely changed my life!
Thank you so much. It is a number of years old and we purchased it from Restoration Hardware, but believe they stopped this style long ago. I think they call that an antique now?
I see that green laser on your fluffy head❤. I bought mine right when they came out and use it constantly. I see so many use the motorheads on hardwood but that is for carpet. Great video. Such a pretty home too❤
hello. I have started watching your videos going right back to the beginning and they have given me the motivation to clean and declutter my whole house. Thanks for all the advice.🙂🧹🪣👋👋👋👋👋👌👍👍👍👍
@@cleanmyspace In fact, I do not like chaos, but I want someone to encourage me to get rid of some of the things that I love but do not need, and this is what your advice does. Thank you again.
I'm at that age where everywhere is hard on my knees. What do you think of Swifter sweepers? For me it's something I can use so I'm not hurting my knees.
Chorebot: dishes. I hate them and my husband usually does them but not always before bed and I do really enjoy having a clean sink in the morning. Such is life though!
I use a car sponge to clean my bathroom floor one side has a mesh but both sides are microfiber. And I boil my water and use Lysol to clean my floors. I do like the all purpose diy but Lysol and bleach when needed just smells clean
Question for Melissa. After you finish cleaning your counters by pushing dirt and hair onto the floor so you clean the bottom of your house shoes? I've been wondering about this. What product or method to clean my house shoes🤔
I wash all floors by hand. I don’t feel like mops are as effective - feels like you’re just pushing dirt around. I have a house full of dogs though so it’s necessary. I’m really here to get motivated to clean lol. Thanks Melissa!
Love this video! Starting today (Sunday). And btw, caught the cake plate on your nightstand - what a great idea for my one lonely unused cake plate. 👍🏻👍🏻
I clean the bathroom floor on my knees aswell. That way i can see all the dirty spots and hair better. I need a friendly robot for my laundry. I have four boys and it is my least favourite job to do 😅
As long as the bathroom floor is about the same size as the one you were doing or smaller I am fine with cleaning the floor by hand, but anything larger like our master bathroom I am not doing by hand. It would not be an efficient use of my time. I think I would like a robot that dusts for me. ☺️ Great video, thank you!
What do you do with all the microfiber towels and such that are to be reused? Do you throw them into the washing machine right away and wash them separately? Leave them to dry somewhere and then put them with the rest of the laundry? I find I always lose my microfiber cloths 🐒
Hey Melissa, thank you for this awesome video like always💕Definitely Rosie from the Jetsons would be my pick!! I have one question though bc I’m nosey👃🤣 What was in the bag that you tied in a knot that was inside of the drawer next to your kitchen sink?
Thanks for watching, Wendy! I think you are talking about my compost bin? It's a requisite where we live that we divide up our compost/recycling and garbage into separate bins. Hope that helps? Melissa
@@cleanmyspace interestingly, only HALF of Melissa made up the 16 minutes total of lay scrolling. Was moved to get Sunday reset started on a Saturday. Thank you as usual. You rock.💜
Im currently doing deep clean sundays, but my goal is to eventually do it Saturday so Sunday is only for laundry and the dishwasher. My boys visit my parents-in law sundays and I would like to couch surf instead of speed clean.
I love your cleaning advice! I’m currently using Lysol Kitchen Pro for my kitchen counters but want to start making your homemade spray. Is this something that needs to be made daily? Or can I make up a mixture that will last several days? I won’t be using essential oils. Just the water, Dawn soap and vinegar? Is that right? Also, for the bathrooms, I like washing them on my hands and knee. Getting up close and personal with the dirt and grime helps me see it better 😊 Mine would definitely be a bathroom bot!
Ha! No real expiry to vinegar and dish soap. Depending on your bottle this is your go to and will not expire. Bathroom bot for the big win today! Thanks for watching!! Melissa
I used to. Now at 62 with arthritis, I cannot get on my knees nor can I squat as I can barely pull myself up 😢 the best I can do us bend over which really bothers my back. So girls, enjoy your flexibility and strength while you have it.
I used to work for seniors cleaning. And I would clean the floors on my hands and knees. To seemed to get a better clean! I don't do it anymore but hmmmm. 🤔. If there was a robot. I'd say mopping. And vacuuming. I know there's one already. 😊
I do my bathroom floor by hand, too. It's not much surface area, and reaching into the nooks and corners around the sink and toilet is easier by hand. Chorebot would clean the toilet.
Question...I use paper towels to wipe down my toilet, however there seems to be static on the exterior of the toilet and the stuff still sticks to the toilet. Why? And how do I change that.
Because i look fwd to the weekend i do Fri. Chores and Sat. Night chores so things don't pile up. I leave all the washing for Mon. (Unless it's for i.e. something/someone special to wear) The robot could do loads of washing Monday! 😅
If I had a cleaning robot it would definitely be kitchen cleanup for me. I cook so much and dishes are hard to keep up with. I'm on autopilot with the bathrooms so that's not as big a deal. The kitchen is the second thing everyone see when walking into the house.
Curious is your bed 2 Obasan twin beds together to make a king? My kids have Obasan and we need to replace our king and thinking that is easier to get up the stairs too
Box and mattress in twins ? and they stay together with king fitted sheet or just use twin bedding and only duvet is king. This may solve some sheet shifting too!
I would use a Roomba type of vacuum/wash on my floors as I have a dog and the floors need constant cleaning. I hate getting up in the am and accidentally finding where my dog has left a present!
I don’t clean my bathroom floor on my knees but I can see the practicality in it. I might even try it. And the answer to your 2nd question: I would love to have a robot doing the dusting in my house. Once a week. Is it asking a lot…
HI Melissa, I one of your most devoted fans here in Chicago. I'm so sorry I missed you when you came with Chad (seems like you made him to most of the set up and booth tending at McCormick play - but hey, you re the boss :-) Mey Melissa, I'm trying more of your recommended DIY cleaning, disinfecting recipes. For the bathroom toilet ball cleaner do you have some recommendation to make the DYI recipe more like a "gel" that will stick more to the inner rim? How about corn starch? The ketchup dispensers didn't work so great, I'd like to use the Lysol gel plastic dispensers instead. Thanks Melissa. Please take loving care of your... "Chad". 🙂 Jaye Left Behind in Chicago PS. How about sharing some of your beauty secrets with you female followers. IMO you haven't aged a day in 11 + years of your Clean My Space videos.
Thanks so much Jaye. Missed this year, I was double booked with SXSW. I’ll be there again for sure. If you’re looking for a gel consistency best to go with a store bought product! I’ll send your hello to Chad!
I know everybody has different cleaning routines… I’m someone who just likes to blitz things. I will actually spend three hours on a weekend cleaning and then I don’t have to do much throughout the week. Probably the least used cleaning routine …. Lol.
Three hours of cleaning on the weekend to avoid doing much during the week? Sounds like the ultimate cleaning hack! Who wants to clean when you can chill, right? Maybe this video could cut your time down to 2.5 hours? Thanks for tuning in!
A chore bot for floors would be life changing. I have the latest Dyson vacuum and I love it, but that little green light drives me crazy. My floors never get completely clean. What am I doing wrong? I have 2,000 square feet of hardwood floors on the main level of my home and there is always some hair, crud in the corners stuck to the floor. Occasionally, not often enough, I go around with a cloth and just clean edges and corners, but it is a constant job.
Hmm. maybe send some pics to me, info@cleanmyspace.com and I can try to help. You have a great vacuum but maybe I need to see the floors! Maybe this video will help? th-cam.com/video/zwI8R7rUgEU/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=CleanMySpace Let me know! melissa
Please Help! Dyson didn’t have a solution when I called them. The tiny wheels on the bottom get clogged with hair and quit rolling. Needle nose pliers and X-ACTO knife is annoying. Any other ideas?
I would like a Stairs Robot. I resist cleaning my winding staircase until even I can't ignore the dust on the stairs! And yes, I clean the bathroom floor on my knees, too. It's small, so I take 2 cloths, and wipe-and-dry as I go. Much quicker.
I even go to the extent of not drying my sheets and pillow cases, laying them wet on my mattress to refresh my mattress and pillows... I live in Arizona so they dry as soon as I put them on.
Cleaning the tub since it's deep and with sliding doors, I don't have access to the whole time I'm cleaning. I usually use a squeegee to clean the doors after showering, but it's the tub itself that's the problem.
I was that lady that mopped all her floors on her hands and knees for 20+ years. As an older lady now I cant get down there to do that so have started using an O Cedar mop. Guess I am confused about the controversy over how one may clean their floors.
No! Proper compost bags that hold to the container and monthly hot water and Dawn soap and a WIPE DRY will keep you compost smelling neutral. Thanks for watching! Melissa
I've been cleaning by hand for 61 years. Gets into nooks that mops miss. My knees won't allow me to get on the floor, but I still have the hip flexibility to bend over to clean by hand.

PS. How about sharing some of your beauty secrets with you female followers. IMO you haven't aged a day in 11 + years of your Clean My Space videos.
Thanks so much Jaye. Missed this year, I was double booked with SXSW. I’ll be there again for sure. If you’re looking for a gel consistency best to go with a store bought product! I’ll send your hello to Chad!
I know everybody has different cleaning routines… I’m someone who just likes to blitz things. I will actually spend three hours on a weekend cleaning and then I don’t have to do much throughout the week. Probably the least used cleaning routine …. Lol.
Three hours of cleaning on the weekend to avoid doing much during the week? Sounds like the ultimate cleaning hack! Who wants to clean when you can chill, right? Maybe this video could cut your time down to 2.5 hours? Thanks for tuning in!
SAME! I thought I was the only one. 😊
A chore bot for floors would be life changing. I have the latest Dyson vacuum and I love it, but that little green light drives me crazy. My floors never get completely clean. What am I doing wrong? I have 2,000 square feet of hardwood floors on the main level of my home and there is always some hair, crud in the corners stuck to the floor. Occasionally, not often enough, I go around with a cloth and just clean edges and corners, but it is a constant job.
Hmm. maybe send some pics to me, info@cleanmyspace.com and I can try to help. You have a great vacuum but maybe I need to see the floors! Maybe this video will help? th-cam.com/video/zwI8R7rUgEU/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=CleanMySpace Let me know! melissa
Everything is really big in America, houses, cars, and it seems washing machines and tumble dryers. ❤
Very true. Very true.
Hi, I’m new here. Thanks for such an inspiring video! My robot would be in charge of window cleaning. 😊
Ah yes, window cleaning, streaky, but must be done! Thanks for tuning in and welcome to the channel! Melissa
I’m surprised you don’t pull back your hair. I have long hair like you- so that’s the first thing I do.
Which mop
Is better ? Vileda spin mop or vileda ultramat flat mop
the Maker's mop! bout otherwise, I would have to say spin mop, but always change out the water!!! Fresh water means clean floors!
@@cleanmyspace let me check the maker’s mop
Chorebot needs to do my dishes. I don’t cook at home because I hate doing the dishes that much!
Please Help! Dyson didn’t have a solution when I called them. The tiny wheels on the bottom get clogged with hair and quit rolling. Needle nose pliers and X-ACTO knife is annoying. Any other ideas?
Hi Kim can you send me a photo?
@@cleanmyspace I couldn’t figure out how to post or send a picture here so I went through facebook and sent in messenger. And Thank You!
@@cleanmyspace did you find the pictures on messenger? If not is there another way you’d like me to send them?
Cleaning the fridge
It's gotta get done!
I also do my bathroom floor by hand. It so small it just doesn't seem worth the trouble to get our a mop
Agree! and you don't miss any spots! Thanks for tuning in.
I follow the “clean as you go” rule most days and Sunday is just my put the hair up and deep clean day. Bathtubs, bedsheets, oven etc
Same! I want a chore bot to clean the bathroom
I would pick either fold put away laundry, or dishes.
I would like a Stairs Robot. I resist cleaning my winding staircase until even I can't ignore the dust on the stairs! And yes, I clean the bathroom floor on my knees, too. It's small, so I take 2 cloths, and wipe-and-dry as I go. Much quicker.
Maybe we should invent a Robot Cleaning Squad to tackle all our cleaning woes!
A toilet cleaning chore-bot would be amazing 😂😂
i use a squeege to collect all the hairs before cleaning bathroom floor...
Where do you put the cleaning gloves. I throw mine away. That could be pretty expensive
Cleaning the bathroom 😮.
Yup!
I do have a robot! 3 in fact! A roomba downstairs with a robot mop and a roomba upstairs! Love them! Under beds all over:) Just great!
So cool! Thanks for the comment. Robots definitely do the trick!
@@cleanmyspace Thanks for motivation 😊
I’d love a cleaning bot to clean my shower!
For my chorebot, it's a toss up between cleaning the bathtub and dusting.
I even go to the extent of not drying my sheets and pillow cases, laying them wet on my mattress to refresh my mattress and pillows... I live in Arizona so they dry as soon as I put them on.
Who needs a dryer when you have Arizona sun magic, right? So lucky. I love Arizona! Have a good weekend. Melissa
Cleaning the tub since it's deep and with sliding doors, I don't have access to the whole time I'm cleaning. I usually use a squeegee to clean the doors after showering, but it's the tub itself that's the problem.
Makes sense! The sliding door can certainly get in the way!!
Scrubbing floors on hands and knees is the best way period. While you are down there you can wipe the baseboards as well.
I was that lady that mopped all her floors on her hands and knees for 20+ years. As an older lady now I cant get down there to do that so have started using an O Cedar mop. Guess I am confused about the controversy over how one may clean their floors.
No controversy, many comments about getting down on the floor to clean. We have a video coming for you!
Does your compost bin smell?
No! Proper compost bags that hold to the container and monthly hot water and Dawn soap and a WIPE DRY will keep you compost smelling neutral. Thanks for watching! Melissa
My chore-bot would do laundry, especially the folding and hanging.
Laundry in the lead!
I've been cleaning by hand for 61 years. Gets into nooks that mops miss. My knees won't allow me to get on the floor, but I still have the hip flexibility to bend over to clean by hand.
Good for you! We are shooting a video with you in mind this week so keep any eye out next weekend! Thanks for watching and the comment. Melissa
Sunday is the Sabbath. My day of rest after church.
I use the moon days as the sabbath. Enjoy your rest day and schedule a reset a different time!
My chorebot would thoroughly clean my floors, under furniture, etc!
