Well here it is, Angela Brown's Top 10 list playlist highlighting cleaning products, equipment, conferences, books, podcasts, apps, and other resources to grow your cleaning business. ruclips.net/p/PLh1fKdNH3piS2lvN0W5oHrDVeTAgI4NXe
I ♥ Angela !!! My wife recently passed and so now all the cleaning is left to me. After paying $400 for a "deep clean" I realized I need to do it myself. It was expensive, not a very dirty house and they really didn't do a good job. So anyhow, I stumbled upon your channel and now I am ADDICTED !!! Today, I just bought EVERY product on your top 10 list and I am going to get to work !!!
Thank you for sharing your story! I'm sorry to hear about your loss. It's good to hear that you're taking on the cleaning responsibilities. Best of luck with your cleaning endeavors!
I am 71 years old and have been looking for a resource to make cleaning around my home easier at my age. I am so glad I found you! Your helpful advice has helped me to look forward to many years of independence in my own home. I have just subscribed this week and look forward to learning from a pro! Any tips for someone with carpel tunnel and diabetes that you can offer is appreciated. I already have a cleaning routine for general housekeeping. Lately, I have been learning how to declutter decades of memories and plan a deep cleaning of our old Victorian home on our Ohio farm this Fall.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for subscribing! I'm thrilled that my advice has been helpful and that you're looking forward to many more years of independence in your beautiful home.
Denture toothbrushes from the dollar store are excellent for getting into small spaces and crevices. There are two tufts of bristles on the toothbrushes so it's like getting two for one.
I love denture brushes too ! They’re amazing and cheap . There’s a tool store here that sells these super tough double ended detail brushes . One end is 1/8 of an inch thick and the other is 1/4 inch thick. They are life savers and only $1.49 each . Check out any discount tool outlets in your area . They have many hidden cleaning treasures 😊
I personally think microfiber towels and brush kits for a cordless drill are a couple of the best tools for cleaning that have come along in the auto detailing and house cleaning industry! Having used both, I can't imagine not having them. Major game changer...😊
Hi Angela hope you are well. Just to say I found your video about depression and not wanting to do anything. How true that is. I've had domestic problems for about 7 years and my bed was my home. Yes I would go into a room seeing a load of clutter and thinking where do I start but then closing the door as it overwhelming. But when I might do some work it feels great. Really enjoy your channel Angela so thanking you. Kindest regards
The Ryobi mini scrubber is outstanding. Small and light but plenty of power to clean almost anything simply by attaching the proper drill brush head. Your shoulders will be grateful and leave the other non power pushes in your basket.
+Serious_in_Seattle Yes I was so happy when I finally discovered power brushes. It really removed the need for so much elbow grease. Thanks for bringing this up it’s a great tip. 👍
I will have to get a set of those brushes. They would be useful in cleaning many things, especially when I clean my windows, presently I use a steak knife covered with a microfiber cloth😖
Thank you so much! You are awesome. I have actually bought the drill brush, the Husky caddy, and many other things that you have recommended. I have not been disappointed with any of them. I also have the Homitt electric scrubber. I make a special mix of 2 to 3 tablespoons of citric acid mixed with 32 ounces of water. Then I spray that on my bathtub at home and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Then I run the Hommit scrubber across it . Everything just melts away. And it does save my shoulder. I am 44 years old and I have been cleaning professionally since I was 18 years old. There are so many body parts that cleaning wears out. 😂 . But I still enjoy doing it for a living. And watching your videos always gets me excited about something new to make my job easier. I can’t thank you enough. That husky caddy has completely saved me from losing so many items that I once lost. The fact that it has all those pockets on the outside makes it so easy to put all my cleaners in those outer pocket. Then all of my brushes and other tools go on the inside in their own pocket. As long as I remember to put things back each time, I’m always able to find them again. On an unrelated note, I just bought some of the super clean cleaning slime. That stuff is amazing for wainscoting. I have wainscoting at home that gets dust very deep in the nooks n crannies. All I have to do is mash that slime into it and pull it out. And voilà! It is so clean. Of course I plan to wipe everything down once again just for a deep clean. But the slime leaves no trace of grime behind. Even in the tough spots that my paint brush wouldn’t get out. I like to use a dry paint brush that has an angle on it usually. Anyway, sorry for writing a book. I just want to thank you for getting me excited about cleaning again. I’ve always enjoyed it. But my own house is another demon. It is so hard to D clutter and clean my own house. It’s so funny how it’s easier for me to clean houses that don’t have any clutter.
Thank you so much for this video! I found you two weeks ago and you have changed my cleaning life! I just moved back into a condo after renters and because of you I can clean thoroughly and smarter! I am so so grateful for your channel!
I like the idea of using a drill brush to save our shoulder in the long run . . looks easy to use and makes cleaning faster . . thank you for this video..
Normally watch your videos on iPad, so has to work to link my Amazon order to your channel on the computer, but I think it worked. I am not young, and have no desire to start a house cleaning business, but your videos have been extremely valuable in helping me with early spring cleaning with less effort and better results. You deserve the commission. Thank you
Added the Homitt electric scrub brush to my Amazon wish list. My spouse & I are (soon-to-be) "empty nesters" in our 60s, so anything that makes scrubbing easier on shoulders & backs (and doesn't depend on absent kids to do the scrubbing) sounds like a great idea.
I figured out I can clean vases and thermos bottles and other things with narrow necks with denture cleaner tablets. Gets out coffee stains really well!
"Thanks for the memory" I am 78 years old, now. I sure do I miss being able to use my (abused) shoulder. I wish those electro brushed where available when I was younger. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I just have to say that at about the 11:30 mark when you're brushing up the cat hair, the cat is looking at you as if it's thinking, "Hey! I just got that the way I wanted it. Now I'll have to start all over."
Genius Woman!!!!! I have looking for good brushes to clean my shower for EVER!! :o am buying 3 HDX and 4 other brushes right now tonight from Home Depot and clean my shower like a honey badger. Thank you So much.
What an awesome and informative video! I do construction and construction clean up . And I clean houses too. Was trying to decide if I wanted to splurge on the Hommit . I get a lot of soap scum because of the hard water here . Many of the brushes you recommend are perfect for what I need . I want the Hommit and the drill brushes . You clean like I do . I always deep clean no matter what I’m cleaning . Need to deep clean my own house . I neglect it because I’m tired from work . I think those spin brushes will make it more fun 🤣. Thank you 😊
Hi. The drill brushes are color coded for stiffness. Maybe start with the softest bristles and keep moving up until you find the brush that works best. Just be cautious of using too stiff a brush in order to protect the finish. Thank you for the question! :)
You did any excellent job of description and Usage. This is really going to help me pair my current brushes and purchase the correct ones. I really have many of these already! Thanks!
This was the most informational video in a sea of informational videos. I did not think when i went looking for brush reviews that i would be met with so many. Thank you so much for your research and for sharing it with us!
This is a great top ten list. I've been loving the oxo brushes ( thanks to you) , & with this new list I'll have to upgrade & serve my shoulder & hands. Thanks for sharing🙏
Bahaha! I laughed because I had a shoulder issue that shut me down earlier this year. I have recently invested in some power tools due to this! Love my rubber brushes! Excellent information! Thank you! I truly appreciate and value your videos!
You know what I do need to get the last brushes they will help my hand that hurts me so much after cleaning house good for deep clean showers and kitchen cabinet when I do feel cleaning also of course for my housec
OMG I bought a Homitt! I love it! It’s so great for me, I’m 61,5’ tall and this has made me want to clean everything! It doesn’t retail for $50 in Canada though 😆
I love this woman and the RUclips algorithm that brought her videos to me!!! I have been using the drill brush for my normal house cleaning, for about 2 years. I bought one off of a Facebook add (yes, I took a huge risk) but I am so glad I did! I think I will upgrade to the Hommit, though. I mean as good as the drill brush is, I would love not having to get up and down 4 different times to clean the tubs....it isn't as easy as it used to be!🤫😄
Thank you for the kind words and for watching the channel. I'm so thrilled you're here. Having used the electric drill brush you will notice a huge downgrade in the power of the Hommit. On average, the electric drill and brushes are at about 20V and the Hommit is at about a 3.5 V. This makes it easier (less power) for someone with say a shoulder replacement who doesn't have the strength to hold a powerful electric drill, and the extension on the Hommit makes it easier to clean without bending. The key is to clean really well before the Hommit and then just it regularly to maintain the cleaning -- because the Hommit doesn't have the same "scrubbing power" that an electric drill has. Does that make sense?
I have lots of these! I scored my silicone bottle brush for $2 at Kmart! It's awesome and I love it. And like I mentioned before, my oxo brushes are different, but I found some the same as yours at Briscoes, a homeware store in New Zealand, for even cheaper! I love my tile/floor scrub brush, it has a scraper on the end which is great for kids' food and craft messes. I recently invested in my own extendable, hose attaching, soap dispensing brush for the exterior and windows of my house lol now I don't have to hang on to my neighbour's one for too long 😆 but man I want those drill attachment ones too now! 😃
Thank you , Mahalo big time Angela! I just got the Oxo Deep Clean Brush Set from Amazon and attacked first our masterbath Shower Stall and next the sliding glass door tracks. WOW! They a fantastic job!!! I'll be asking Santa Claus to bring me a second set for the kitchen!
I have a huhu $37.00 on Amazon. 1 1/2 hr charge. Will work for hours. Comes with 2 sets of 3 brushes.ive used it for month. Love it. With arthritis this has become a must have
Thanks for all the recomendations , I love the hommit I will definitely get one for my home and I just thinking on get the brushes for the drill to keep all our outside windows and garage door clean ... 👍😉
Thanks for your videos Angela. I have learned SO much from you. My question for you is how do you clean your brushes to keep them so clean? Have a great day, and GOD bless!
Hi Kathy, thanks for your kind words of encouragement and support. It depends on the brush and the job, but after each use washing them in hot water with dish soap is usually all your brushes need to be clean enough to use again. And we request our clients have toilet brushes at each toilet so we are not bringing in toilet brushes we've used in other people's homes, or carrying theirs across their home.
On a maintenance clean you will just dust it and you can use a Swiffer Duster. On a deep clean you will use a damp microfiber cloth. For a special project you will use a leather cleaner and and a drill brush designed for leather. Here is a video I made that shows you how: ruclips.net/video/pxxKf7pUa64/видео.html
Hi. The little grooves on the side of the dust pan are for cleaning off the bristles on the brush that comes with it. Hope that helps! Thank you for watching! ☺
Thank you so much Andrea for sharing your wisdom and experiences with us. I have always disliked housework but I’m laughing because I am kind of looking forward to cleaning with a couple of the products you showed us. I found the drill brushes in your Amazon store however I cannot find the Hommit. Is it in one of your lists? If so, which one? Thank you again for your sharing your cleaning knowledge with us. I guess you can teach and old dog new tricks. 😉
How do I clean a fiberglass shower? What cleaner/scrubber? Seems like whatever I do, there’s hardly a difference despite the time and elbow grease I invest.
I have several videos on how to clean showers. This a good one to start with: ruclips.net/video/qrjL17pU3bQ/видео.html Good luck and keep me posted on how it goes! 🤗
Brushes without a motor, can be cleaned with hot water and dish soap. This includes sponges, hand held scrub brushes, OXO deep cleaning brushes, etc. They can all be added to the dishwasher and run on a hot sanitizing cycle with regular dishwashing soap.
I am so glad to learn all the tips! Thank you so much, Angela! As with the greasy gunk on the wooden cabinet doors and hardwood floor, I am just wondering if Homitt Electric Spin Scrubber works better than the Drill Brush without scratching the surface of the doors & floor.
If using the drill bit, you can pop it in the dishwasher with your sponges and other brushes for a sanitizing cycle, or you can wash them in a bowl of hot sudsy water.
@@AskAngelaBrown I am thinking to get either Homitt Electric Spin Scrubber or the Drill Brush to clean all the greasy gunk on the wooden kitchen cabinet doors and hardwood floor. Which one should I get?
That's awesome! Thank you!👍In the gray bar, under the video (ruclips.net/video/-MVoqY6NBys/видео.html&lc=UgyaM26zmETNru618eB4AaABAg), you will see "Show More"- if you click on that all the brushes and how to buy them are listed in the description box! Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!! 🙂
@@AskAngelaBrown If I don’t want to use the dishwasher to clean the brush, would it work to soak it in an Oxyclean solution? I saw that in another video.
WOWEE! SO VERY HELPFUL~~~AGAIN, ANGELA! :-))) I was wondering WHAT SPRAY YOU USED ON THE LEATHER FURNITURE??? Look forward to your reply! TFS your TERRIFIC ideas n’ aids w/the Scrub Brushes! :-) SMILES from Madison, WI! :-))))))
Hi Judith, thanks so much for your kind words of encouragement and support. The leather spray is Meguiars Gold Class Rich Leather Cleaner and Conditioner amzn.to/3dNXY2S it looks like this but you can find it for a few dollars less at the AutoZone.
@@AskAngelaBrown thank you so much for your “SPEEDY” reply! AND THANK YOU for the recommendation/product info which will help us to keep our leatherworks in good shape! :-) I’m a NEW SUBSCRIBER~~& SO HAPPY I’ve found you! I DID go on a little “ANGELA BROWN BINGE”~~I just REALLY LIKED your presentations~~important background to the post, gave imp. Ingredient components, other “health” info re:product, showed how it worked (your using it), gave cost & where to find; and encouraging comments & questions! CAN’T GET BETTER THAN THAT! I’m now a BIG FAN! Wishing you continued success! Sending BIG SMILES from Madison, WI! :-))))
Is the Homitt power scrubber safe to use on painted wooden kitchen cabinets? I need an electric scrubber with a long, extendable handle to clean the deep, hard to reach areas inside my kitchen cabinets. The cabinets are painted inside and out with what seems to be glossy wall paint (not by my choice; it's a rental, and the kitchen is gross). Thank you for sharing all your great advice! It's extremely helpful! :)
HI Angelia I just found your channel today. I am 69 years old, I am handicap I have a very hard time with sweeping my floors, I also have a shower bathtub combo which I hate to clean. I am unable to get down on my knees to clean around the floor and the bottom of the tub. do you have any idea on a tool that I can use to help me out.
The Homitt Electric Spin Scrubber works well to help with cleaning the tub, check out the review I did on it: The Best Scrub Brush For Seniors - Homitt Electric Spin Scrubber Product Review - ruclips.net/video/wFVsUmTMjWk/видео.html
Hey Adam & Megan, here is the paid linkamzn.to/3y2OdHW to the one I use. It is an electric drill not a cordless drill and I prefer this one because I don't have to worry about the motor burning out or the battery going dead. I've been using this one for 15+ years with regular use. This is the newer version of the same model - and it's lightweight enough that when using it in a shower for example that you don't get arm fatigue from using the heavier ones with the battery pack.
Can anyone answer this question for me? If I'm starting out as a cleaner, how do you clean your vacuum between clients? How about the brush/crevice attachments. Is a bleach soak necessary? How about the brush head on the floor attachment. I'm really curious about this because of course the towels get washed but also, what about the bathroom scrub brushes?? Bleach and soak them in between clients? Or do you have cleaning kits for each client's homes and everyone gets their own vacuum attachments?
I recommend having a cleaning kit for each client's home, with separate vacuum attachments and scrub brushes. Regularly cleaning and sanitizing tools with mild disinfectants can help maintain a clean and professional environment
CONGRATULATIONS ON TWO SHOWERS! GO JUDY! Yes you can use the Hommitt spin brush on cabinets! But make sure you work in small sections and keep a beach towel under the cabinets since there will be splatter from the rotation of the brushes. The key is to use as little spray as possible and stay with the section on the cabinet until the gunk is removed. Work gently and dry the cabinet as you go. Keep me posted I'm eager to hear how it goes for you.
@@AskAngelaBrown thank you, Angela! I should have said two shower doors. I’m not usually so energetic. I had my swimsuit on. I also had my mixture of Dawn dish soap and vinegar already. It’s best to use that mixture right away. I did it first thing in the morning, when I had my most energy I think those were the keys I also used a Mr.Clean white sponge. I keep that in the shower and get the scum off between cleanings. Works well. That’s why I hadn’t cleaned my shower doors in awhile. But hubby’s shower doors really needed cleaning. Oh, that unsealed soap dish that was so stained awhile back? It was probably mold. It is fading. My husband is using body wash now, which causes less Soap scum. He’s also usually leaving a fan on for a half hour after he takes a shower. Mold doesn’t grow unless it has moisture. THANKS for your help! You’re helping me make my house I clean her place! During pandemic, I learned that I can influence my own environment by decluttering and cleaning. I am simplifying my life by taking charge of my house.
Hi Angela I bought the Hommit today at a yard sale and as I’m watching your video I didn’t think about the charger I was so happy to buy it since you had rated it to be a good one also can I use it for my house cleaning business? What do you think ?
No. Don't use it for your cleaning business. For your cleaning business you will want the drill brush attachments that go with an electric drill. Here is the paid link so you can see what I'm talking about amzn.to/3A5dxz6 A drill brush will have on average 20V where the spin scrubber is more like 3.5V. If you are power cleaning - you need power tools you can plug in while working, not power tools that will get you halfway through a job and the battery goes dead.
The OXO Good Grips Soap Dispensing brush is now the best option. Here is the paid link amzn.to/3GexLaK so you can see what I'm talking about. Thanks for letting me know about the availability - I'll change the link in the SHOW MORE section under the video as well. 👍
I’d like to ditch my Swiffer but, when you use the electric brush ($49.95) on the bathroom floor, how do you dry the floor? Thank you for all you do. 😊
Hi. Clean your way out to the door and you can let the floor airdry. Or you can dry with a towel as you go so when you get to the door, the floor is clean and dry. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching. 🤗

This is a great top ten list. I've been loving the oxo brushes ( thanks to you) , & with this new list I'll have to upgrade & serve my shoulder & hands. Thanks for sharing🙏
The oxo brushes have changed my life because of Angela too lol
@@RebelAlliance42 👍❤️ Awesome!
You're welcome and thank you for watching the video. Sending hugs. 🤗
@@RebelAlliance42 thank you for your kind words. 😊
I love the little rubber end with a microfiche cloth to clean corners on the OXO brushes, Betsy purchase!
Very informative video! I will definitely invest in some of these brushes, especially the powered ones.
Let me know how they work for you. I'd love to hear your experience. :-)
Bahaha! I laughed because I had a shoulder issue that shut me down earlier this year. I have recently invested in some power tools due to this! Love my rubber brushes! Excellent information! Thank you! I truly appreciate and value your videos!
Good stuff! Thank you for your feedback and thanks for watching. 🙂
You know what I do need to get the last brushes they will help my hand that hurts me so much after cleaning house good for deep clean showers and kitchen cabinet when I do feel cleaning also of course for my housec

You are welcome! So glad that you have the brush, hope it's very hepful and useful to you.
You just became my fairy godmother of cleaning!! Thank you this knowledge …this is life changing!! Subscribed!
Yay! Thank you!❤
OMG I bought a Homitt! I love it! It’s so great for me, I’m 61,5’ tall and this has made me want to clean everything! It doesn’t retail for $50 in Canada though 😆
That's great, glad you like it! Thanks for sharing!
I love this woman and the RUclips algorithm that brought her videos to me!!! I have been using the drill brush for my normal house cleaning, for about 2 years. I bought one off of a Facebook add (yes, I took a huge risk) but I am so glad I did! I think I will upgrade to the Hommit, though. I mean as good as the drill brush is, I would love not having to get up and down 4 different times to clean the tubs....it isn't as easy as it used to be!🤫😄
Thank you for the kind words and for watching the channel. I'm so thrilled you're here. Having used the electric drill brush you will notice a huge downgrade in the power of the Hommit. On average, the electric drill and brushes are at about 20V and the Hommit is at about a 3.5 V. This makes it easier (less power) for someone with say a shoulder replacement who doesn't have the strength to hold a powerful electric drill, and the extension on the Hommit makes it easier to clean without bending. The key is to clean really well before the Hommit and then just it regularly to maintain the cleaning -- because the Hommit doesn't have the same "scrubbing power" that an electric drill has. Does that make sense?
Terrific! I can tell you are a quality cleaner!
Thank you so much for your kind comment - I appreciate it. ❤️
Would live to see the inside of your work vehicle and how you organize all your supplies! What do you think?
Kristina, Check out this video I made on keeping your cleaning car organized: ruclips.net/video/R5dief7ofOs/видео.html
Very cool brushes. I’ll add some of these to my arsenal ! Thank you 😊

Thank you so much Roslyne. Sending you big virtual hugs from the USA. 🤗🤗
@@AskAngelaBrown Thank you my dear teacher, sending hugs too
Trying to make a living cleaning, Thanks for the info.
You're welcome! And thank you for watching the video. Wishing you lots of success! 🙂
I have lots of these! I scored my silicone bottle brush for $2 at Kmart! It's awesome and I love it. And like I mentioned before, my oxo brushes are different, but I found some the same as yours at Briscoes, a homeware store in New Zealand, for even cheaper! I love my tile/floor scrub brush, it has a scraper on the end which is great for kids' food and craft messes. I recently invested in my own extendable, hose attaching, soap dispensing brush for the exterior and windows of my house lol now I don't have to hang on to my neighbour's one for too long 😆 but man I want those drill attachment ones too now! 😃
@@AskAngelaBrown I've been wanting an excuse to buy a drill for some time now ☺
I use toothbrushes to clean in small areas. I'm not a professional, just reviewing this to figure out how much I should pay a housecleaner.
Great tip, thank you for watching the show.
God bless us with the wisdom and knowledge
Thank you so much for your kind words, I appreciate it! 🤗
Thank you , Mahalo big time Angela! I just got the Oxo Deep Clean Brush Set from Amazon and attacked first our masterbath Shower Stall and next the sliding glass door tracks. WOW! They a fantastic job!!! I'll be asking Santa Claus to bring me a second set for the kitchen!

I am excited! I bought several recommended items. Not sure my order and Amazon account linked properly from clicking through your embedded links? Wah!
I am in heaven! Used the power brush on filthy baseboard and door frame. Game changer working smarter is the way to go.
I’m so glad you like the power brush : )
I want the electric one! It looks fun lol
Thanks for your videos Angela. I have learned SO much from you. My question for you is how do you clean your brushes to keep them so clean? Have a great day, and GOD bless!
Hi Kathy, thanks for your kind words of encouragement and support. It depends on the brush and the job, but after each use washing them in hot water with dish soap is usually all your brushes need to be clean enough to use again. And we request our clients have toilet brushes at each toilet so we are not bringing in toilet brushes we've used in other people's homes, or carrying theirs across their home.
Great information thank you
Glad to be helpful!
The things people put into their dishwasher. Oh my. Dishes...maybe a teether. That's it people.
Thank you for joining the conversation!!
Really amazing stuff! You kinda remind me of bebe neuwirth
Thanks for watching and taking the time to drop me a note. You just made my day. :-)
That’s it! I have been trying to figure it out. Thank you Faustian Man! 😊
What is the best way to clean a leather sofa without damaging the sofa or overworking yourself? Thank you so much!
On a maintenance clean you will just dust it and you can use a Swiffer Duster. On a deep clean you will use a damp microfiber cloth. For a special project you will use a leather cleaner and and a drill brush designed for leather. Here is a video I made that shows you how: ruclips.net/video/pxxKf7pUa64/видео.html
I was wondering what those little grooves on the dustpan were for..
Hi. The little grooves on the side of the dust pan are for cleaning off the bristles on the brush that comes with it. Hope that helps! Thank you for watching! ☺
Happy Birthday
Thank you.
Thank you so much Andrea for sharing your wisdom and experiences with us. I have always disliked housework but I’m laughing because I am kind of looking forward to cleaning with a couple of the products you showed us. I found the drill brushes in your Amazon store however I cannot find the Hommit. Is it in one of your lists? If so, which one? Thank you again for your sharing your cleaning knowledge with us. I guess you can teach and old dog new tricks. 😉

How do I clean a fiberglass shower? What cleaner/scrubber? Seems like whatever I do, there’s hardly a difference despite the time and elbow grease I invest.
I have several videos on how to clean showers.
This a good one to start with:
ruclips.net/video/qrjL17pU3bQ/видео.html
Good luck and keep me posted on how it goes! 🤗
Do you have a video on the best steam cleaners? Like a Depray Home steamer
No, but I've had a couple of requests. Maybe, I'll make one for you.
Ms. Angela, what do you clean your brushes with after cleanings? Do you soak the brushes? Thank for teaching us.
Brushes without a motor, can be cleaned with hot water and dish soap. This includes sponges, hand held scrub brushes, OXO deep cleaning brushes, etc. They can all be added to the dishwasher and run on a hot sanitizing cycle with regular dishwashing soap.
Would be nice if oxo brush handles were a nicer color than black.
I know right?! Hopefully they change it up a bit, thanks for watching!
❤❤this video! You're the best! Thank you!
You're welcome! Thank you so much for your kind words, they are greatly appreciated. Sending hugs. 🤗
I am so glad to learn all the tips! Thank you so much, Angela! As with the greasy gunk on the wooden cabinet doors and hardwood floor, I am just wondering if Homitt Electric Spin Scrubber works better than the Drill Brush without scratching the surface of the doors & floor.
And how do you clean the brush after applying Murphy oil soap on the wooden cabinet doors?
If using the drill bit, you can pop it in the dishwasher with your sponges and other brushes for a sanitizing cycle, or you can wash them in a bowl of hot sudsy water.
@@AskAngelaBrown Thanks Angela!
@@AskAngelaBrown I am thinking to get either Homitt Electric Spin Scrubber or the Drill Brush to clean all the greasy gunk on the wooden kitchen cabinet doors and hardwood floor. Which one should I get?
Thank u you are so helpful!
+Emma Deveto What a lovely thing to say. Thank you so much for dropping by. I appreciate you spending a few minutes of your day here with me. 👍

HI ANGELA ILOVE ALL THE BRUSHES AND PLEASE CAN I PLACE THE ORDER NOW.

Thank you for this fantastic video! What is the best way to clean the HDX scrub brush after use?
It is dishwasher safe so you can put it in the top rack with your drill bit brushes and sponges. Run a sanitization cycle and you'll be good to go.
@@AskAngelaBrown If I don’t want to use the dishwasher to clean the brush, would it work to soak it in an Oxyclean solution? I saw that in another video.
WOWEE! SO VERY HELPFUL~~~AGAIN, ANGELA! :-))) I was wondering WHAT SPRAY YOU USED ON THE LEATHER FURNITURE??? Look forward to your reply! TFS your TERRIFIC ideas n’ aids w/the Scrub Brushes! :-) SMILES from Madison, WI! :-))))))
Hi Judith, thanks so much for your kind words of encouragement and support. The leather spray is Meguiars Gold Class Rich Leather Cleaner and Conditioner amzn.to/3dNXY2S it looks like this but you can find it for a few dollars less at the AutoZone.
@@AskAngelaBrown thank you so much for your “SPEEDY” reply! AND THANK YOU for the recommendation/product info which will help us to keep our leatherworks in good shape! :-) I’m a NEW SUBSCRIBER~~& SO HAPPY I’ve found you!

Is the Homitt power scrubber safe to use on painted wooden kitchen cabinets? I need an electric scrubber with a long, extendable handle to clean the deep, hard to reach areas inside my kitchen cabinets. The cabinets are painted inside and out with what seems to be glossy wall paint (not by my choice; it's a rental, and the kitchen is gross). Thank you for sharing all your great advice! It's extremely helpful! :)
HI Angelia I just found your channel today. I am 69 years old, I am handicap I have a very hard time with sweeping my floors, I also have a shower bathtub combo which I hate to clean. I am unable to get down on my knees to clean around the floor and the bottom of the tub. do you have any idea on a tool that I can use to help me out.
The Homitt Electric Spin Scrubber works well to help with cleaning the tub, check out the review I did on it: The Best Scrub Brush For Seniors - Homitt Electric Spin Scrubber Product Review - ruclips.net/video/wFVsUmTMjWk/видео.html
TYVM.
You're welcome. Thanks for watching. :-)
Is there a particular type of drill? So that the motor doesn't just burn out.
Hey Adam & Megan, here is the paid linkamzn.to/3y2OdHW to the one I use. It is an electric drill not a cordless drill and I prefer this one because I don't have to worry about the motor burning out or the battery going dead. I've been using this one for 15+ years with regular use. This is the newer version of the same model - and it's lightweight enough that when using it in a shower for example that you don't get arm fatigue from using the heavier ones with the battery pack.
Can anyone answer this question for me? If I'm starting out as a cleaner, how do you clean your vacuum between clients? How about the brush/crevice attachments. Is a bleach soak necessary? How about the brush head on the floor attachment. I'm really curious about this because of course the towels get washed but also, what about the bathroom scrub brushes?? Bleach and soak them in between clients? Or do you have cleaning kits for each client's homes and everyone gets their own vacuum attachments?
I recommend having a cleaning kit for each client's home, with separate vacuum attachments and scrub brushes. Regularly cleaning and sanitizing tools with mild disinfectants can help maintain a clean and professional environment
Thank you very much! I did two showers today with the Hommitt!
Can I use the Hommitt on the kitchen cabinets?
CONGRATULATIONS ON TWO SHOWERS! GO JUDY!
Yes you can use the Hommitt spin brush on cabinets! But make sure you work in small sections and keep a beach towel under the cabinets since there will be splatter from the rotation of the brushes. The key is to use as little spray as possible and stay with the section on the cabinet until the gunk is removed. Work gently and dry the cabinet as you go. Keep me posted I'm eager to hear how it goes for you.
@@AskAngelaBrown thank you, Angela! I should have said two shower doors.
I’m not usually so energetic. I had my swimsuit on. I also had my mixture of Dawn dish soap and vinegar already. It’s best to use that mixture right away. I did it first thing in the morning, when I had my most energy I think those were the keys
I also used a Mr.Clean white sponge. I keep that in the shower and get the scum off between cleanings. Works well. That’s why I hadn’t cleaned my shower doors in awhile. But hubby’s shower doors really needed cleaning.
Oh, that unsealed soap dish that was so stained awhile back? It was probably mold. It is fading. My husband is using body wash now, which causes less Soap scum. He’s also usually leaving a fan on for a half hour after he takes a shower. Mold doesn’t grow unless it has moisture.
THANKS for your help! You’re helping me make my house I clean her place! During pandemic, I learned that I can influence my own environment by decluttering and cleaning. I am simplifying my life by taking charge of my house.
THANKS ANGELA! YOU MAKE ME WANT TO CLEAN....
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!
Hi Angela I bought the Hommit today at a yard sale and as I’m watching your video I didn’t think about the charger I was so happy to buy it since you had rated it to be a good one also can I use it for my house cleaning business? What do you think ?
No. Don't use it for your cleaning business. For your cleaning business you will want the drill brush attachments that go with an electric drill. Here is the paid link so you can see what I'm talking about amzn.to/3A5dxz6
A drill brush will have on average 20V where the spin scrubber is more like 3.5V. If you are power cleaning - you need power tools you can plug in while working, not power tools that will get you halfway through a job and the battery goes dead.
The broom and dust pan are no longer available on amazon
Thanks for letting me know, I will have to check that out.
Which dish brush do you recommend now that this one isn’t available?
The OXO Good Grips Soap Dispensing brush is now the best option. Here is the paid link amzn.to/3GexLaK so you can see what I'm talking about. Thanks for letting me know about the availability - I'll change the link in the SHOW MORE section under the video as well. 👍
I’d like to ditch my Swiffer but, when you use the electric brush ($49.95) on the bathroom floor, how do you dry the floor? Thank you for all you do. 😊
Hi. Clean your way out to the door and you can let the floor airdry. Or you can dry with a towel as you go so when you get to the door, the floor is clean and dry. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching. 🤗
