              If they're thermal swimwear, absolutely not.

                U can try part-time maid? the initial part is always the hardest. But after a while you will be used to it.


                else get another maid to stand in before you sent ur current off.

                hope it helps.

                Cheers!!!

                  Hi, I have been living without maid for 2months & realised I’ve been nagging my teen girl to help me with vacuum & mopping floor. She did it willing for the first month but now I will do it because she will takes 3hr using Rainbow vacuum cleaner (which is heavy for her). I vacuum daily & mop floor on alternate day after work for my 3yrs old son & fat old dog.


                  Any recommendation on which is the best & economical robert vacuum cleaner for both dry & wet clean, preferred with easy maintenance & where can I buy it?
                  Thanks in advance.

                    Buy an iRobot Romba for dry vaccum and a Scooba for wet floor washing. It really cuts down the pain of maintaining the floors. Just mop the edges and corners once a week as the machines can't get 100% close. The machines are also easy to use.

                      Hi fifiyeo,


                      How are your robots so far? Am thinking of getting them too but am worried that roomba can’t cope with long hair and dog fur. Also, seems that scooba has some issues with durability.

                      Thanks!

                        Thanks for your recommendation but I read Scooba is not easy to maintain. Do you know where to buy & price for each machine? Thanks again.
