We're so glad one our last day at CES we made one last swoop around a section we were unsure whether we had covered or not, mostly because we might have missed the Mint Automatic Floor Cleaner. Strangely, despite home appliance devices becoming every bit as computerized as their home entertainment counterparts, cleaning devices are barely represented at the show, making the Mint...ahem...a refreshing device.

Love gadgets, but hate cleaning? This familiar robotic vacuum cleaner concept may not come across as very ground-breaking as when announced a few years back, but a little competition never hurt anybody. Meet Neato, a robot with a "Room Positioning System" that utilizes lasers to detect obstacles when cleaning (versus Roomba's drunk puppy running into walls method). More

What's so special about the Siemens Z6.0 canister vacuum besides looking like a handsome look-alike of a droid from the Empire cleaning crew? The new Z6.0 Power and the Z6.0 Eco models were designed to use up to 50% less energy using efficient air flow provided by a newly engineered aircraft turbine-style engine within the aerodynamic shape.

It's that time of year when humidifiers seem to be needed the most. Unfortunately for those of us that always have product design in mind, shopping for humidifiers can be somewhat of a nightmare. Not only does it make a lot of noise throughout the night, it might as well be a giant elephant in the room as well. More

Upon first seeing the SEBO Felix Vacuum Cleaner, we found the fashion-influenced styling reminding us a little too much of our memories growin up around middle aged Korean golf enthusiasts dressed in Burberry sweaters (aka our aunts and uncles). But what we did like about these extremely light 10lbs. upright models is how they can convert from a vertical-use position to a light carry-type handheld. More

So, we've got a lot of pets (last count, five cats!) in our 300 square foot apartment and hence have a lot of dust bunnies under couches, tea carts, bed side tables, etc. Most of the time, to get to them, we have to either push the piece of furniture back and suck 'em down with the vacuum or get on our hands and knees and use the vacuums detachable arm to kill those bunnies. It's not very fun, therefor the dust and fur collect for long periods of time under our furniture... More

At Unplggd, we love vacuum cleaners. Why? They keep our pads nice and clean. You know as well as we do that even though vacuum cleaners aren't made to work on all surfaces, you still use them to get rooms clean. That's why Electrolux's new vacuum cleaner might do the trick for you: it works well on a number of different surfaces. More

The Eureka Whirlwind Plus upright vacuum is a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde from our experience with it. On one hand, the vacuum comes fitted with so many cleaning options, the vacuum should be standard issue with house keeping crews across the nation, equipped with a self cleaning feather duster, a special Power Paw Brush and impressive suction power...

If you've ever wanted an upgrade from your trusty old Roomba, then the Furot from Samsung might be it. It's a given that vacuum cleaning isn't something that everyone likes to do. Also, homes get messy quickly and having a robot around to do your chores really frees up your time. More
