Cleaning Gear Advisor is an independent website about household cleaning equipment and tools. We publish selection guides that help homeowners, renters, busy families and pet owners choose equipment that fits their needs, with a focus on matching vacuums, mops, carpet cleaners, steam cleaners and everyday tools to your floors, home size and cleaning routine.
Who we are
Cleaning Gear Advisor was founded in 2026 and is run by a small, independent editorial team. We are an online-only publication. We are not owned by, and do not work on behalf of, any manufacturer, brand or retailer, and no company reviews or approves our guides before they are published.
What we cover
Our guides are organized by need in the cleaning equipment section. Each guide explains which features matter for a given task, which trade-offs to expect and who a type of product is and is not a good fit for.
How we research
Our content is written by the Cleaning Gear Advisor editorial team. We base our guides on manufacturer specifications, user manuals, surface and flooring manufacturers’ care guidance and published product documentation. We compare published specifications and explain them in plain language.
We are clear about the limits of our work. Unless an article explicitly describes our own use of a product, our guides are research-based and are not hands-on product tests. We do not invent test results, ratings or statistics. Read our Editorial Policy for details.
Safety and scope
We do not give advice on mixing cleaning chemicals or on disinfection for medical purposes, and we do not make health claims about air cleaning products. Always follow the product manual and the care instructions for your floors and fabrics.
