New broom sweeping clean = Hoover Freejet 3 in 1 ...

Hoover Freejet is a dream ...

this little baby comes with two small brushes ...

making it possible to go over any surface.

There's a few bad reviews online ...

but people have to realise it's not a normal household cleaner ...

it's for inbetween times ...

not an every day workhorse.

My lifesaver drags out the mother Hoover every fortnight...

now this baby picks up between major cleans ...

life's good.
