“These are the five kitchen cleaning tasks I recommend weekly — I know some of you will say some of these should be daily — but unless you’ve been cooking heavily, you really can get away with weekly,” Kacie wrote.
The first thing Kacie said she did was scrub the stovetop.
“I’m talking about a decent scrub,” she said.
The cleaner prefers a microfiber cloth and some dish soap – which she says is often the substitute cleaner for almost everything in your household.
After this, Kacie moves on to the sink, where she uses the same tools.
“This prevents brown build-ups from appearing,” she said.
When it comes to the cabinet doors and back wall, all you have to do is wipe them gently with a cloth and some washing-up liquid.
Finally, Kacie makes sure to mop the floors to keep them looking neat and shiny.

Thousands who saw the video were quick to thank the cleaner for sharing it, while others said some chores should be done more or less often.
“Closets are fine spot cleaning and monthly deep cleaning (for me),” one woman wrote.
“I do this every day and a deep clean once a month,” added another.
Earlier, Kacie explained exactly how she cleans a kitchen from top to bottom and how she gives her clients’ homes the “wow factor” with a secret product.

The first thing you need to do is clear absolutely everything so that you can get past and under various items.
“Okay, I’m going to show you how I regularly clean a kitchen,” Kacie said in her video.
‘I start by clearing up all the mess and doing the dishes. I don’t want anyone cleaning like this and just wiping surfaces, you always have to get behind things and under things – that’s why it has to go.’
After this, the cleaner said she “takes everything off the stove” and lets it soak in the sink while she does the rest of the kitchen.
“Get up from above and make your way down the back wall,” Kacie said.
‘Sometimes the back wall is a window and then you reach the hob. Wipe this real good and then polish it.”
The product Kacie swears by is For All ($23.95), which she uses to clean the entire kitchen.
The $23 purchase describes itself as a “safe and effective liquid laundry detergent made with natural surfactants and scented with only pure essential oils.”
According to product information, For All is going to replace “more than 15 different surface cleaners in your home.”
“I like the simplicity of using just one product for the entire kitchen,” said Kacie.
She said if your cooktop is an induction cooktop give it a good scrub.
Finally, she does the window seals, counters, and leaves the sink until the last minute.
“To avoid those brown stains in the sink, I give it a good brushing at least once every two weeks,” Kacie said.
“And then when I’m at a client’s house and want to leave it with a ‘wow factor,’ I polish it up with some baby oil and a microfiber cloth.”
Baby oil used on a soft, dry cloth works wonders at removing streaks from shiny surfaces like stainless steel or enamel, but it won’t actually clean the surface.
