A concise, updated guide to carpet cleaning machines: vacuums, spotters, extractors, steam and low-moisture systems - how they work, what fibers they suit, and practical buying and use tips.
Not all jewelry cleaners are safe for every piece. Learn which methods work for different metals and gemstones, when to use home ultrasonics or soap-and-brush, and when to consult a professional.
Steam cleaners provide a low-chemical way to remove oils, fingerprints, and residues from jewelry settings and stones, but they're not suitable for porous or glued pieces - use stainless steel tanks and follow safety guidance.
A practical update on carpet care: choose the right vacuum for daily cleaning, use hot-water extraction for deeper soil, and hire professionals for big jobs or water damage. Consider HEPA filters, sealed systems, and low-VOC cleaners for better indoor air quality.
A professional jewelry cleaner restores shine, inspects for loose settings, and handles repairs that home cleaning can't. Learn about tools (polishers, buffers, ultrasonic), which pieces need special care, and what to expect from a jeweler.
