Update: This giveaway is now closed.
I don’t know about you, but I’m ALWAYS itching to clean out my house once Fall rolls around (not only the clutter, but the dust-bunnies too). Maybe it’s because the weather is finally a bit cooler so I don’t sweat like crazy, or maybe it’s because the lazy days of Summer are gone and I realize that it’s probably time to get back to work. Whatever the reason, you are much more likely to find me deep cleaning in the Fall than in the Spring.
So far, I’ve already deep cleaned the nursery, our bedroom, our bathroom, the garage, and the storage room upstairs. Once our kitchen is finished, I’ll tackle the rest of the house.
And even though I’m one of those weird people who actually enjoys an afternoon of cleaning, I still don’t like to waste time looking for my supplies… or waste space storing my supplies.
I’ve already shared a bit about my ultra-simple bathroom cleaning routine, but when it comes to the rest of the house, I have a relatively simple routine there too.
I’ve been using the Unger cleaning products for over a year now and absolutely love how quick, simple, and easy they are to use… not to mention, space-saving!
One of my favorite things about the Unger products is the Tele-Pole. There are a few different types of poles, but you just need ONE and you can quickly and easily attach ALL the different cleaning “heads” via the threaded end. That means you can save loads of space!
And if you’re wondering what type of attachements Unger has… let me just list a few:
- 3 different window cleaning attachements
- 9 different dusting attachements
- 4 different brush attachements
- an adjustable gutter-cleaning attachement
- and lots more!
My second favorite thing about the Under product line is their Microfiber Specialty Cloths. Not only are they machine washable (which means reusable) they are also specifically designed to work well WITHOUT chemical cleaners. One works for stainless steal surfaces, another is for glass, another for dusting, and the forth one is simply an all-purpose cloth.
So as you can imagine, I can pretty much clean everything in my entire house (besides the laundry) with these products.
And since I know new cleaning products are always a great incentive to do a little deep cleaning, I’m super excited that Unger is giving away EIGHT of their brand new Connect and Clean Kits available exclusively at Target.com.
Side note: I absolutely love the “wineberry” color of these products… and wouldn’t this set make a fabulous wedding, shower, or house-warming gift?

It’s my bathroom. Seriously, it’s filthy and starting to stink. I’ve put it off long enough, but I still can’t find any motivation to really get in there and clean and sanitize it. Even the thought of doing it gives me the eebie-geebies

My closet under the stairs is a task I always seem to tackle when it’s too late; When I go rummaging for the Christmas decorations, ugh! It has weird corners that need dusting and there is no way I care to go allll the way to the back of the closet where I can’t see…. (curves around under a flight of stairs)
