Pseudonorm

This is more than what I hoped for – I absolutely detest mopping and ironing of all the household chores, but since having a toddler, I've decided to strip the carpets and use floorboards, due to the mess toddlers…

create. I also hate dirty floors. This is exactly what I've been waiting for. It vacuums and most importantly, it mops. It does it so fast and so efficiently, yet leaves no streaks. I can use this every day now and not dread the mopping side of things, since this is a 2-in1. For all those of you who hate mopping as much as I do, this is what you need. After cleaning, it just self cleanses after you dock. Just empty out the dirty cannister. I pour the contents through a little sieve and toss the solids in the bin. It works a treat. I'm so so so happy with it so far. I would love the corded version of this though. If there was one, I'd buy that instead, I don't like how I'm wasting electricity charging it for 5 hours for a 36 min runtime. Yes, it's pricey, but it is such a godsend. I like that it also comes with an extra cleaning brush and an extra roller brush. I do wonder though, what happens when the battery fails after warranty is over.

Very professional and efficient – Tony came by the same day to fix my curtain. Had it all sorted in an hour. Very efficient and professional. Will definitely recommend him and the quote was very reasonable. …

Very stable pram – I bought this pram for going to the park as I have a yoyo for walking in shopping centres. The pletora is super stable, it goes over gravel with ease and it doesn't feel like it…

will tip over. It's easy to maneuver over grass too which is a bonus. The quality is super. The brakes are great and super stable. It feels very safe. I love that it came with so many free assessories that other brands make you pay for.

Very easy to assemble too.

The downsides of this pram. 1. The seat is a bit short and the canopy seems a little low. My 2.5 yr old is hitting his head on the canopy. He's not a tall toddler either. 2. The distance between the basket and the seat is a bit low so it can be a bit challenging to put larger items into the basket. 3. I prefer if all the wheels were on the floor when folded so I've locked my front wheels in the reverse position. It works LoL 4. The harness buckle is a bit cumbersome, especially when you have a wriggling toddler. You need to connect the top harness to the belt harness to be able to lock it. I prefer my yoyo harness. Less to fiddle around with when you're trying to get the toddler in.

All in all, I do really enjoy my pletora and I recommend it. It would be so much better with slight mods to future models.

Exceptionally clean – I stopped using store bought, mainly to buy Aussie made and owned products, but like with other items I tried, most pretty much let me down. I decided to bite the bullet and try…

Euca. One of the products was this peppermint dish washing powder. I tried not to get my hopes up too high, but I was absolutely amazed by how clean and fresh my dishes came out after just one wash. No horrible chemical smell. No after taste. I nearly poisoned myself the other day drinking coffee that tasted like dish tablet. Not pleasant. I've done about 20 washes with this powder, and my cutlery is looking sparkling. I didn't even realise they were dull to begin with. This is just too amazing. Dishes are not sticky, feel sqeaky clean, doesn't feel hazardous when you open up the door once the cycle is complete. I love how when I open the door, I'm greeted with a burst of peppermint. It's the best part of doing the dishes now. I also feel confident in not rinsing my baby's cutlery and plates before using. With my old dish washer tablet, I'd have to pre-rinse post the coffee cup debacle. I'm definitely going to buy a large refill of the peppermint again. I hope the formula always stays the same. It's a winner. Once lockdown is over in Victoria, I'm going to pass some to my girlfriends. It's too good not to share.

New family favourite – Since the pandemic, I've been really focused on making sure everything is Aussie made and owned, as well as effective and environmentally friendly. I've been using Omo the last 10…

years and decided it's time for a change. I bought another Aussie brand liquid detergent, but I found it didn't clean my clothes as well as it could have. Euca has surpassed all my expectations, and laundry is super clean, smells great, doesn't have a slippery/sticky texture on damp freshly washed laundry that other detergents seem to have. I bought the laundry booster as well but found I didn't really need it. I've washed dish towels, towels, clothes, floopmop pads and everything came out clean and stain free. I used to have to add a scoop of laundry booster to the Omo to get towels not stinking. The washing machine drum is also sparkling after a wash. My baby has eczema and this hasn't exacerbated his itchy skin. If anything, he's itching less. Big tick from me. I've so used the lady dry powder to wash the toilet and it's very clean and doesn't smell hazardous like bleach. Bought the peppermint dish washing powder too and it's great. Dishes are sparking clean and don't smell chemically. I'll review that in a separate post. I will be changing all my cleaning products to euca.
