The Kitchen: Small appliances

The bread maker, the mixer, the food processor, and the toaster are all examples of small counter appliances in your kitchen that will need cleaned. To keep your house gleaming clean, you will need to tackle these items as you use them. Cleaning small counter appliances is not really a portion of your deep cleaning tasks but more of a day-to-day or weekly task.

Your small counter appliances cleaned after each use should be cleaned with soap and water or bleach and water as needed. This keeps germs, bacteria, and mold from growing. There can be times when you do not use some small counter appliances for weeks at a time, so they sit on your counter and gather dust and grease from other tasks you perform in the kitchen.
