Giveaway: Spring Cleaning with Arm & Hammer and Electrolux (6 Winners!)

by

The following review is from the Deal Seeking Mom project administrator, Mandi Ehman:

As the weather gets warmer, spring cleaning is on a lot of people’s minds and Arm & Hammer and Electrolux want to help Deal Seeking Mom readers tackle this big project with products that make cleaning easier and our homes healthier.

Arm & Hammer

We’re all familiar with the orange box of Arm & Hammer baking soda which naturally reduces household odors in refrigerators, pantries and trashcans and can be used as a natural cleaning agent, but Arm & Hammer also has a line of cleaning products that use the power of baking soda to help you tackle specific cleaning jobs around your home, including:

  • Arm & Hammer Clean Shower
  • Arm & Hammer Baking Soda Shaker
  • Arm & Hammer Scrub Free Cleanser
  • Arm & Hammer Carpet & Fabric Odor Eliminator
  • Arm & Hammer Essentials Trigger Spray
  • Arm & Hammer Trash Can Deodorizer
  • Arm & Hammer Fabric Softener Sheets

In addition, Arm & Hammer vacuum bags and filters are allergist recommended and offer HEPA filtration, which keeps 99.97% of small particles like dust, pollen and pet dander from being re-introduced into the air. With more than 120 different styles of vacuum accessories, there are Arm & Hammer filters for nearly all brands and models of vacuum cleaners.

Electrolux

Our family has always been a huge fan of Electrolux appliances, and we recently bought our first Electrolux vacuum, the Electrolux ErgoRapido Bagless/Cordless Stick Vacuum, which we love for daily vacuuming to keep up with the crumbs and dirt that our four girls seem to create.

So when Electrolux offered us the opportunity to try the Electrolux Versatility bagless/upright model, we were excited to see if it would live up to the standard set by the stick vacuum. It’s hard for us to find a vacuum that works well on our hand-crafted custom wood floors without scratching them up, but we were hopeful this would do the trick while providing us with more cleaning power than the stick vacuum or our resident Shop Vac.

The box arrived, and my husband immediately unpacked it and began vacuuming, and it really did live up to our expectations. The innovative handle quickly releases a telescoping wand system that reaches up to 14 feet. We’ve rarely used vacuum attachments in the past because of the extra work of hooking them up or switching power to the wand, but this process is automatic in the Versatility, making it easy to quickly dust a high shelf, vacuum hair off the couch or clean up crumbs in the snack drawer.

Additionally, the Versatility vacuum offers:

  • A three-stage cyclonic suction system that separates most of the dirt from the air before it reaches the filter, so the filter stays clean and the vacuum retains maximum cleaning power.
  • A bottom-empty dust cup to make emptying it easy.
  • A HEPA filter that removes 99.97% of small particles from the air while vacuuming and includes charcoal technology to absorb and eliminate odors.
  • Quick and easy switching from hard floor to carpet mode, making it easy to vacuum your entire home.

    I’ve got to clean out our junk room to turn it in to a nursery-I dread the piles of junk that I’ve got to go through but we’ve got to make room for the little one on the way!

  3. Sarai

    For me, I try to do “spring” cleaning throughout the year in an effort to keep me from being overwhelmed during a few months of the year. I assign a room a particular month and that allows me to take my time over several weeks or knock it out during a weekend.
    This is an AMAZING giveaway…and since we could use a vacuum upgrade, I’d LOVE to win!!

  6. Suzy

    I am now your facebook friend! And I would LOVE a new vacuum cleaner – Our “good” one recently died and we are using a really poor one. It would probably just be easier to pick up the dirt by hand!

  7. Tiffany Reeves

    Clean the clutter from the bedroom closets to get ready for garage sale or giveaway. Take down blinds and scrub them. Thorough cleaning of the bathrooms. Move big appliances and clean behind them. Use shampooer on all carpets and on the living room furniture. Extensive dusting all throughout the house.

  8. Judy@HG

    Items on my spring cleaning task to-do list are cleaning the walls and the blinds? The job I dread the most is the blind cleaning.

  12. Lynn

    Spring cleaning for me means cleaning the areas I don’t reach too often: tops of cabinets, ceiling fans, closets, etc. The chore I hate is the decluttering which always seems to need to be done!

  15. Dan

    We moved recently so the spring cleaning task list mostly includes going through boxes and putting stuff away. I most dread the garage… it’s full of boxes.

  16. Jennifer

    I washed windows! I vacuumed corners in our bedrooms and sort of in the closets…I am not the best cleaner!

  17. Mary

    I have to pull out all the furniture to vacuum underneath (kitty hair is going everywhere) and organize all of my closets, drawers, and shelves to make room for baby stuff. I am most dreading the fact that I am 5 months pregnant and getting out of breath everytime I clean for more than 30 minutes!

  19. Sheena

    I have an e-book that I reference when spring cleaning, so I don’t forget anything. I dread taking everything out of cupboards to clean the insides.

  21. Deanna

    Spring Cleaning…well, we’ve already started with the outside of the house (I always delay the inside, I HATE those projects!), so the landscaping is caught up and I want to pressure wash the siding and the porch in the next weekend or two. I dread cleaning out the closets the most! Something about finally having to give up an article of clothing you’ve been holding on to hoping you would fit it again!

  22. Jenny

    Spring cleaning is cleaning everything that hasn’t been cleaned in a long time . . . windows, closets, furniture, garage, etc.

  25. Carrie

    Spring cleaning in our house is a lot of floor work – we have hardwoods in a portion of the house, and those always track a lot of dirt! The carpets are next, I’m a stickler for a clean floor! we’re going to also work on clutter, dusting, and organization!! Plus the bathrooms need a fine-tooth inspection! So basically, we’ve got our work cut out for us! :)

  26. Kristin

    Top of my spring cleaning list is washing windows–but since it’s also my least favorite chore, it often gets postponed…indefinitely!
