    No-Wax Floor

    A vinyl floor with a tough, clear finish.

  • Oriental rug

    This is another easy-does-it job. When in doubt, seek professional help.

  • Oven, continuous-cleaning

    Abrasive pads and harsh cleaning agents can degrade this oven’s ability to keep itself clean.
  • Oven

    Oven, convection

    Even if your oven “cleans” itself, some tasks still need to be done by hand.

  • Oven, conventional

    Clear winner of the Worst Job in the House Award.
