Get an over cleaner. Spray on for a few minutes, then wipe off with a wet rag.
- Get plugins or reed diffusers for different rooms for freshening up the air.
- Also, we use a red bulb from Home Depot in our bathrooms, in addition to regular lighting, to dry up the bathrooms after bath. It keeps the bathroom so fresh and free of mildew.
- If this is a temporary home, then don't buy expensive furniture. Find an IKEA!

use any kitchen cleaner and leave it on for about 15 -20 minutes. I like Lysol Kitchen Spray cleaner. Also use a sponge dipped in hot steamy water to loosen the stains.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

Infra red heat bulbs.
Nadz, if nothing works and stains on the cooktop remain, you can always do a light quote of spray paint on top, assuming that your cooktop is white. You need to cover all the dials and handles with masking tape before you start

Fairy Power Spray - leave on for at least half an hour, then pour boiling water over it and wipe. Use a stainless steel coiled wire scourer for stubborn stains, they work really well.
MAKE SURE U USE RUBBER GLOVES bcos that stuff is VERY BAD FOR YOUR SKIN.
