Steam-clean your floors, greenly

Photo credit: Haan

Cleaning with steam is one of the most eco-friendly ways you can clean—it's very efficient, uses no toxic chemicals, and is safe for most surfaces. There's only one problem: to heat the water hot enough to make decent steam, you need electricity. High-wattage electricity. And that's not so green.

That's why this RomiHAAN steam cleaner sounds so awesome. At only 800 watts, it performs with the big boys yet uses less juice to do it. It cleans every type of hard-surface floor: vinyl, hardwood, laminate, marble, and slate, and more. With a special attachment you can even use it to clean carpets and soft surfaces as well. And when you're done, toss the microfiber pad in the wash to use another day.

I used a machine similar to this one for years and the thing rocked—steam really can clean everything! But the wattage it pulled in was enormous. The whole city dimmed whenever I plugged it in. So if you're just looking for some great clean-floor action and you'd rather drop 99 bucks than $1200, the RomiHAAN is your baby. And I'm thinking it's going to be my baby too. Seriously. Did you see how cute this thing is?

Who says cleaning isn't sexy?

Sure beats Swiffering. Just the word—Swiffer—is so NOT sexy. Steam and gettin' steamy, that's way sexier. Less than a hundred bucks?! Not a bad price. Affordable can be sexy, too. Oh, and how much does it cost to keep the kids off the freshly steamed kitchen slate?

It's adorable and I used to have a hand held steam cleaner - loved it!
