Time for a Spring Clean; Keep your Kitchen Appliances at their Best!

With Spring fast approaching, now's a great time to prep for a spring clean.

And so we’ve taken some inspiration from the experts at Good Housekeeping; with their help, we’ve put together some top tips for keeping your kitchen at its best. And combined with our own expert ‘home appliance’ know-how, we’ll share how you can use your appliances to make cleaning quicker and easier than ever before by utilizing specially designed appliance features that assist in the cleaning for you.

Ovens

The oven is one of the most-used kitchen appliances - but how often do you clean it? And as great minds think alike, we’re happy that even the experts at Good Housekeeping recommend using your oven’s self-cleaning system to assist with the dirty work - leaving you with the easy (although not most pleasant) task of simply wiping away the grime after the oven’s done the hard bit!

Take a look at Bosch Oven. It’s just one of the many double ovens we have in-store with eco-clean, so cleaning your oven will be just as simple as cooking in it.

But what is EcoClean: EcoClean is super effective and takes the hassle out of cleaning. It’s a special coating of microfine ceramic spheres on the oven walls and roof that gently breaks down grease spatters while you roast or bake. For optimum cleaning, simply activate the regeneration cycle from time to time. This long-lasting coating ultimately saves you time and energy too!

Fridges

While, unfortunately, there is no magic self-cleaning fridge button, clearing your fridge-freezer regularly ensures the cooling features can work optimally, so airflow can navigate around the fridge freely, preventing food from spoiling too quickly.

This will also make it easier to check that the condenser coils are not blocked, as these are a vital part of the fridge’s cooling process. The condenser coils are usually located at the back of the fridge, so they can become blocked with food grime or even dust, causing them to work inefficiently. This can be quickly rectified however, by using a vacuum attachment, or you can purchase a special coil brush.

Washing Machines

When it comes to cleaning your washing machine, Good Housekeeping recommends adding bleach and turning on the special washer cleaning cycle on your machine.

However, when it comes to using your washing machine to keep your laundry clean, then consider a washing machine like this Hotpoint freestanding washer.

Tested and certified by Allergy UK, the washer’s Anti-Allergy cycle has been designed to remove major allergens such as pollen, mites and cat or dog hair, thanks to high-temperature technology and extra rinses. And it’s anti-stain feature is a specific cycle studied to remove even the most difficult stains without pre-treating. This is achieved thanks to elevated electronic control and the optimized synergy between the special movements of the drum and the different washing phases. Perfect for busy, messy families. And with a B energy-efficiency rating and coming in at under £380^*, this washing machine it’s friendly on the wallet too.

Vacuum Cleaners

Many household appliances contain powerful motors with fast-moving parts that get very hot, so if you don’t keep up with the maintenance, excess fluff or lint can build up over time and even lead to house fires, with tumble dryers being a main culprit - but how to clean them!

Good Housekeeping suggests removing the fuzz from your tumble dryer's filter after every load; pull out hard-to-reach lint with the crevice tool on your vacuum to suck up debris. Vacuum under, around and behind the dryer as well. But finding a vacuum cleaner that can reach all of those hard-to-reach places, as well as spotlessly clean, can be difficult.

The Bosch BCS71PETGB rechargeable vacuum cleaner is just one of many suited for the job! Extremely versatile, the vacuum’s convenient Flex Tube makes it possible to reach those harder-to-reach places, and with the Nozzle Foot Release, you can detach the nozzle from the tube without bending over, to easily switch to spot cleaning with the practical tube.

Plus, thanks to RotationClean, you can clean the vacuum filter instantly and hygienically. All the dust and dirt are released with minimum contact. It’s fast and easy filter cleaning without washing the vacuum separately after use.
