This will avoid dust and grease buildup, plus more storage.
Bored Pandagot in touch with Leaders Cleaning and they were kind enough to answer some of our questions. We wanted to know why they decided to start a TikTok account in the first place. “First, is to give exposure to our business, as regular TikTok users ourselves, we think the social media presence gives some sort of reassurance to the potential client that they are making the right choice.““Secondly, is to share our experience. Of course, we are not perfect and always learning, however, we have worked through hundreds if not thousands of properties, so we have an idea of what performs better for the easier life in terms of maintaining a home,” they shared with Bored Panda.

Looks great and professional. However, dust and dirt accumulate a lot in between spirals.
We also wanted to hear if they had any other tips for the folks at home. “The main mistake is using the wrong tools/products and not reading cleaning product labels. Not only can it be a serious health hazard to mix different cleaning products, but it can also damage the materials irretrievably. It can be bad for natural materials like wood and stone. We have seen it all.““If it looks clean - it is clean. Visual cleanliness can be deceptive and commonly used areas like benchtops, table handles, toilets, and the vanity need a good detergent or disinfectant to sit and work for a few minutes for its actual cleaning properties. Cleaning can be overwhelming, take it one step at a time and clean a little bit every day rather than all at once. If you have the opportunity, reach out to your local cleaning professionals, in our experience it gives so much relief to our busy clients.”

Just catches all the splashes.
Hard water stains are real. After it’s stained, really hard to clean.
Requires a lot of polishing for a clean look. Best for commercial kitchens.
The most common “evil” one might encounter is black mold, which absolutely loves to show up wherever there is but alittle too much moisture. As a child, you may have not even realized that those black areas in a less-than-tidy bathroom were mold. Perhaps it’s dirt, mud, or just general grim, you could have thought to yourself.
Corded wooden or metal blinds get tangled, collect dust, dirt and mold. Very, very, very hard to clean.
If not attached, there is water, dust, and mold in this little gap between the wall and bath.
Needs only a quick wipe after each use. What a dream.
Despite being so ubiquitous, black mold is disproportionately bad for humans. Besides looking gross, there are a number of links between the presence of mold and respiratory issues. While scientists have yet to discover a hard correlation between the two, there does seem to beenough secondary evidenceto suggest having random black mold in your corners is bad.
Collects grease and dust. At the same time, hard to reach the top.
Reflects dust so much, even when cleaned frequently.
My favorite. So easy to clean and no place for germs to breed.
Harder to clean. Squeegee and get into sliding fixtures. Could save space but would keep as a last resort.
Really prone to streaks.
Looks sleek, however, collects all the hair and dirt really fast. Also gives an odor if not cleaned often.

After a few years of maintaining your own place, it gets easier to spot potential issues. From weird shapes and surfaces to easily stained materials, there are so many pitfalls. For the same reason that we don’t wear white every day, it’s worth thinking about every design choice from the perspective of “How will I clean this?” and “How will this look after a year of use?”
Looks good but gets dirty constantly with all the cooking.
Looks seamless and avoids dirt buildup. Only filters need to be washed manually or in the dishwasher on a low, medium heat short cycle.
Appliances all on display require more frequent cleaning.Easier to place them in the cabinet and do a maintenance clean.
Non-reflective surface leaves less to no streaks during cleaning.
The moment you touch it, it leaves marks. Especially hard to clean oily stains. Looks stunning though.
Rarely get properly cleaned and disinfected deep inside. It is also a mission to do it.
These are so beautiful, but almost never looks neat unless you don’t sit or touch it. Leaves messy marks after every touch.
Easy to clean and wipe down right to the sink. Splashes are contained on the surface and don’t go all around the walls.
If you still decide to have blinds, shutters are easier in maintenance.
In my opinion, it leaves less streaks and hides fingerprints well.
As it’s used often, there are always fingerprints and it’s hard to polish at the very top.
