Let me tell you, when this Lotus Home Cleaning System showed up on my doorstep I was thrilled. \u00a0It is no secret that I am germophobe, but I also worry about using strong cleaners filled with chemicals. \u00a0 The lotus\u00ae patent technology infuses cold tap water with an extra oxygen atom, creating a natural sanitizer. By passing air through 4,500 volts of electricity, the lotus\u00ae system splits oxygen molecules into atoms and forces this extra atom to combine and form liquefied ozone. The third oxygen atom becomes the sanitizing agent, a natural oxidant — which kills bacteria and viruses, and neutralizes pesticides. \u00a0I admit, I was skeptical at first, but I got the unit set up and fired it up to make my first bottle. \u00a0With the included microfiber towels I wiped down my\u00a0counter tops, stove, appliances, cutting boards, microwave, cabinets, handles on everything I could find and more. \u00a0It cleaned great and even dissolved grease on my stove top.<\/p>\n

Next, I decided to see how it worked on produce. \u00a0I had read about how a woman used it to clean strawberries and the unit told her 1 cycle was not enough, that there were still pesticides on the fruit and it needed another cycle. \u00a0Can you imagine how we just rinse fruit under the tap and eat it!!! \u00a0I had three pounds of fresh cherries, I put them in the bowl and ran a cleaning cycle. \u00a0I was able to just drain them in the bowl when they were done with the strainer top and they were so clean and delicious.<\/p>\n

Fruit and veggies last longer too when the bacteria on them is killed. How many times in the last few years have we heard about salmonella on fresh veggies? \u00a0Now, you can protect your family by using the lotus to sanitize all your produce, it last longer and you know it is free from bacteria and pesticides. \u00a0Meats, Poultry, Pacifiers, Toothbrushes, nail clippers, toys, nipples, orthodontic retainers, and much more can be cleaned and sanitized in the bowl.<\/p>\n

I am hooked now, we use a lot of produce in the raw form as we are big Vitamixers and believe me everything from berries to spinach will be going in this baby. \u00a0I appreciate that if the kids got a hold of the bottle it is just water and not full of chemicals that tell you they are harmful to children and animals. \u00a0The Lotus Home Cleaning System will save you money, because you are not buying cleaners and your food will last longer when cleaned in the Lotus, so you are wasting less food. The unit uses cartridges that will last for about 90 cycles. \u00a0They only cost about $8 each so very reasonable considering you do not need to buy a ton of different cleaners.<\/p>\n
