A study of 2,000 adults found they'll spend 54 minutes a week on laundry, 25 minutes mopping floors, 35 minutes vacuuming and 45 minutes washing up - but their most dreaded chores are cleaning toilets and windows or dusting
Brits spend the equivalent of over two years of their lives tidying their homes, according to a study of 2,000 adults. The research revealed that they'll dedicate 54 minutes a week to laundry, 25 minutes to mopping floors, 35 minutes to vacuuming and 45 minutes to washing up.
Over an average adult lifetime, this totals 20,530 hours or 855 full days - spent scrubbing, mopping, vacuuming and dusting. "A combined 28 months of your life devoted to scrubbing, washing, mopping and tidying seems like an awful lot." Only 21 per cent of those polled have a regular cleaning schedule, with 60 per cent just doing things as needed.
Although 74 per cent of those polled, via OnePoll, feel having the right tools makes the job a lot easier.
