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?

I could really use help cleaning a ceiling fan and some windows. My house has a very high vaulted ceiling, and I can not reach the ceiling fan and some upper level windows. These pieces might just do the trick!

I just moved into my boyfriends small, 2 bedroom house, and I’m not sure if he’s ever cleaned at all before! I could use this on the windows, celing fans, and floors.

We just moved in to our retirement home and I would love this system for keeping up with the dust bunnies.
Thanks

I could really use this kit. Our backyard has been tore up due to the pouring of new patio. With the summer being so hot and dry the dust just poured in my backdoor. ugh! Even the walls are dusty.

My kitchen is the place that could use the most deep cleaning. With two guys in the house, it’s hard to keep the sink clean, let alone the counters, oven and stove.

My kitchen! The food pantry, the floors, the fridge…
Edie S. says
The dining room – it always feels sticky and crusty with two young children spilling drinks and dropping food. It’s also the only good spot in the house for the pet food and water bowls so it has the pet hair and messes, too!
Robin says
I think the dirtiest spot is above my kitchen cupboards. Also, as others mentioned, my ceiling fans. Too high to get either and not noticed so quickly, but I know they need a good cleaning!
Anna says
I’m already a fan on Facebook too.

My house needs to be dusted! I hate dusting so it’s always the last thing to get done.
Lea says
Dusting in my whole house — especially the fans which haven’t been touched all summer!
Shannon says
My baseboards are calling my name! And the ceiling fan blades. I’m pretty sure this fun kit would be just the thing to get both of those and others tackled. Thanks for doing these give-aways!
Sarah Johns says
