I’ll admit it: I really, really hate mopping my floors. It’s my least favorite chore in the house… I’d rather scrub the toilet or clean out the entire disgusting refrigerator than mop my floors. The issue is not just that I don’t enjoy the mopping activity—it’s boring and constantly having to bend over and ring out the mop hurts my back—but mopping is also inherently a multi-step process since you can’t mop floors until after you first vacuum them. Ugh. That’s another chore I don’t really feel like doing.
Enter the Tineco Floor ONE S5 wet/dry vacuum, a sleek and sexy (yeah, I said it!) vacuum that eliminates this two-step chore, dramatically simplifying the cleaning process so I can spend more time relaxing and putting off other chores. At only 17lbs, this lightweight vacuum is a breeze to push and the swivel steering means it’s easy to push under floor cabinet overhangs, hard-to-reach corners, and along tight edges. It’s also whisper quiet so I’ve found myself vacuuming close to midnight without waking up anyone else. The vacuum lives in a small, convenient floor charging unit, which I keep tucked into a corner so I can quickly grab it to clean up a mess.
