Spring is the perfect time to thoroughly clean all of those areas you’ve neglected during the winter. There are plenty of great tools that can make this chore a lot easier. However, New Yorkers tend not to have a lot of space for storing cleaning tools. But no worries: we found some cool items that don’t take up a lot of space and can be easily stored.

[TAG1] The Orfeld Cordless Vacuum Cleaner is lightweight and can be mounted on the wall so it doesn’t take up any floor space. The 22000Pa suction power is strong enough to remove debris from hard floors (with the soft brush roller) and carpets (with the hard brush roller). The vacuum cleaner has a 35-minute battery life and a five-stage HEPA filtration system. The cordless stick vacuum also converts to a handheld model for additional functionality.

[TAG2] If you need a cordless stick vac with more power and longer battery life, the Proscenic P12 Cordless Vacuum Cleaner has 33000Pa suction power and lasts for 60 minutes. The product uses anti-tangle technology to keep pet hair from getting wrapped around the roller brush and has a two-in-one floor brush for both carpet and hard floors. Green LED headlights make it easy to see in dark corners, and the LED touchscreen lets you control the suction level, view the battery level, and see when the dust cup is full. With a five-stage HEPA filtration process and the ability to convert to a handheld, the vacuum cleaner also has a crevice tool, and a two-in-one round brush, and can be mounted on the wall.

[TAG3] When vacuuming is not enough and you also need a water-based solution to clean stains and remove dirt from carpet and upholstery in your home, or even the inside of your vehicle, this handheld Bissell Little Green Multi-Purpose Portable Carpet and Upholstery Cleaner is lightweight and compact but has a generous 48-ounce clean tank capacity. It also has a scrubbing tool for tough stains. In addition, the hydro-rinse self-cleaning tool rinses debris out of the hose so you don’t have to.

[TAG5] With this slim OXO Good Grips Extendable Shower Scrubber, you can easily scrub floors, tubs, tiles, and glass.

[TAG7] When swapping out your spring and summer clothes – and curtains – the Aspiron Handheld Garment Steamer makes it easy to freshen them up and remove wrinkles without lugging out an iron and ironing board. Since the steamer can be used in an upright position (both horizontally and vertically), you can steam clean clothes and drapes/curtains while they’re hanging up. There’s also a measuring cup, static brush, and convenient storage bag included.

However, the OXO Good Grips Microfiber Under Appliance Duster can extend up to 53 inches and the microfiber head (which has thin cloth on one side and long fluffy strands on the other side) rotates 270 degrees. This makes it easy to clean under kitchen and laundry appliances, and even clean your blinds. When finished, it can retract to 24 inches for easy storage.

The robot vacuum includes brushes for vacuuming, a built-in water tank, a mopboard, and mopping cloths. It has a runtime of almost two hours before it needs to be recharged.

[TAG13] With the Pure Enrichment PureZone Turbo Smart Air Purifier, you can clean less frequently. That’s because the air purifier traps dust, smoke, pollen, and other particles (large and small). It has a 5-stage air filtration system that includes a pre-filter, antibacterial filter, True HEPA filter, activated carbon filter, and antimicrobial UVC-light.

The humidifier quietly releases a cool mist that can help you to breathe better, and it has an automatic shut-off feature when it’s out of water.

[TAG15] It’s a lot easier to keep your kitchen clean when paper towels are close by and easy to access. The OXO Good Grips Steady Paper Towel Holder is more convenient and sanitary than dragging a nasty sponge over your kitchen surfaces. The weighted base lets you easily grab one paper towel without pulling the holder over, and there’s even a carrying knob for easy transport. And you can complete the set with the matching stainless steel soap dispenser, which has a fingerprint coating and is designed for easy, one-handed dispensing. Convenience and style.
