Review of Dyson Purifier Cool Formaldehyde Air Purifier
Clean And New Doesn't Mean Safe Due to the pandemic, many of us are staying indoors more and consequently, cleaning our homes more. Contrary to what we think, cleaning the home more frequently doesn’t necessarily mean the home is ‘cleaner’ or toxins-free. Every day, we breathe up to 9,000 litres of air and even before the COVID-19 pandemic, we spent as much as 90% of our time indoors (in offices, schools and malls). As our homes increasingly become spaces where we work, study and exercise as … [Read more...]
My Dyson Supersonic Experience
Gleeful Faces and a ‘Conspiracy’ I’ve heard and read so much about this hairdryer and now it’s been presented to me! Along with 3 gleeful faces, one of which was the ‘conspirator’ - the hubby no less, who had secretly planned this as an early Mother’s Day and Birthday present for me, and kept it hidden in the house with the kids’ help. The ‘Candy Store’ and the Mother’s Life Holding the Dyson Supersonic Hairdryer in my hands, I’m like a kid in a candy store, hardly able to contain my … [Read more...]

Cordless Vacuum Cleaners – A Comparison
Dyson, Philips, Samsung, Bosch and Tefal. Which one? Cordless or Hand-stick Vacuums are quite the rage in homes these days. At one glance, cordless vacuums have obvious advantage over their traditional (think big, bulky and noisier) counterparts. Particularly so in space conscious Singapore where most of us live in high-rise apartments. Same Same but Different: Currently there are many brands and models of cordless vacuum cleaners in the market, each having its own seemingly … [Read more...]
Dyson Pure Cool Link™ purifier fan – A Review
We were rather desperate. After our move to our new home, our 3 yr old son, Buddy has had recurrent wheezing and coughing episodes which seem to start whenever he enters his bedroom. He could be fine and fit in the living room but the moment he steps onto his bed, the coughing fit would start. We were very concerned to find out the triggers as we were worried he might develop into full-blown respiratory tract infection if this persists. ‘Seeing’ Dirty Air If you know that … [Read more...]
Dyson V8 Fluffy – Leading the Vacuuming Revolution
This product is really quite different. This is a lifesaver. Serious. I had wanted to jump straight into its many wonderful features but I really had to say that first. Children and Crumbs All parents can agree with me that homes with young children have one thing in common – food crumbs and dirt – think bread and biscuit crumbs, chunks of soil, grass etc...I think you get the picture. What makes it worse, is that we are a home in maid-transition i.e. Our reliable maid of 4 years have … [Read more...]

Dust – What we can’t see can seriously harm us
Recently the entire household was sniffing, coughing and itching as we did our year-end spring cleaning. In fact the kids were having persistent runny nose with no symptoms of flu or any illness. After some deduction, we knew that the culprit was a common one but a potentially harmful one - Dust. Around the world, allergies are on the rise. But what's alarming is that these triggers are found all around the home. On average, humans shed 28g skin flakes every month – a rich … [Read more...]
