“The Daily Value (DV) for iron is 18 milligrams,” explains Sydney Spiewak, MS, RDN, CDN, a Connecticut-based clinical dietitian.

13 Design Decisions That Could Make Your Home Harder To Clean

“I just thought, if I am redoing it, I am going to make it as easy as possible to clean,” says Downes, who through her work knows all too well how bad design can make things harder to clean. Every choice Downes made was informed by future cleanability: A floating cavity replaced the previous cabinet that created a crevice that gathered dust and hair; tiny mosaic floor tiles were replaced by the largest tile Downes could find on a mesh back; wall tiles got supersized to four-by-eight inches to eliminate grout lines and extended to the whole room to protect the walls from splashes; and even the traditional toilet was jettisoned for a fully-skirted model, which was harder to install, but much easier to scrub....
