As professional shoppers, we’ve tried and tested our fair share of gadgets on the market.
Spanning tech, beauty, home and even cookware, we’re always on a mission to find out which viral items are worth the hype, and the ones worthy of the price tag.
As a pet owner of a pup who constantly sheds, I’ve curated a list of cleaning essentials that actually keep the house looking clean.

My top pick? A go-to Tineco Floor Cleaner that vacuums and mops up even the most stubborn stains and mess.
Taking away the need for multiple cleaning devices, it’s a genuine game-changer for those who want to quickly and efficiently clean their homes.
While my trusty robot vac still whizzes around the house while I’m at work, my Tineco Floor Cleaner is the most reliable companion for heavy-duty vacuuming and mopping.
There are plenty of impressive models in the Tineco lineup, but I’ve just spotted the Floor ONE S5 Smart Cordless Wet Dry Vacuum on sale at Amazon Australia for under $250.
Down from $379 to just $249, it’s a rare chance to snap up a “time-saving” cleaning gadget on sale.
Featuring a generous water tank, a clever brush roller that can reach corners, and a long-lasting battery, it’s perfect for busy households with pets and kids.
And I’m not the only one who agrees.
“I’ve been using the Tineco Floor ONE S5 Smart Cordless Wet Dry Vacuum & Mop on about 50sqm of laminate flooring (living + kitchen), and it has replaced both my vacuum and mop for daily cleaning,” writes one shopper.
“It vacuums and mops at the same time, which cuts cleaning time in half. The iLoop smart sensor adjusts power automatically depending on how dirty the floor is — and it actually works. Sticky kitchen spots, crumbs, and everyday dust are handled in one slow pass.”
Loved for its ability to remove even the most stubborn dirt, debris and marks left on the floor, Aussies say it’s a “genuine time-saver”.
“The dual-tank system keeps clean and dirty water separate, so you’re always washing with fresh water. Floors dry quickly and don’t feel overly wet. The self-cleaning function is also a big plus — just dock it and press a button.”
“It’s best for regular maintenance rather than heavy-duty deep cleaning, but for sealed hard floors like laminate or tile, it’s excellent.”
The on-sale price at Amazon Australia is almost too good to miss, and we’re expecting the FLOOR ONE S5 cleaner to fly off the shelves while on sale.
So if you’re looking to add a heavy-duty cleaning device to your home, you’ll have to act fast.
“I LOVE this – I’ve got hardwood timber floors that are constantly trashed by three kids and a Bernese Mountain dog,” writes another shopper.
“Being able to run over it with the Tineco and know that if there’s a bit of dog hair or biscuit crumbs or whatever that is still on the floor it’s absolutely fine because it’ll pick it up AND wash it is soooo good.”
