To only vacuum twice weekly?

[BadEyeBri]

Just reading another thread and someone mentioned vacuuming 3 (!) times a day. How often do y'all vacuum? Twice weekly in my house. I know we are lazy but it's grand, no one has died (yet?). I'm fairly sure there's nothing that will make me up my vacuuming levels either 
Am I a full on dirty mare leading my poor DH into a life of squalor and disease? AIBU in not vacuuming more????

I do a shake and vac of the house every Saturday. And then I probably vacuum the living room rug every 2 days.

Cleaner vaccine the house top to bottom on a Wednesday

House vaccine made me laugh.

Up an down stairs every day doesnt take long at all prob 20mins am a bit ocd tho. I wish I could just not do it for a few days at a time but I just have todo it same with all the housework really I just can't leave it.

Twice a day, a very messy eating toddler, and 2 very hairy dogs. Once in the AM and once in the evening, and sometimes a midday whizz round if been a messy morning

Once or twice a day downstairs, once a week upstairs.

We have a dog, a cat and a 5 year old. I like to keep on top of downstairs.

@ThisLittleLady my extreme reason is that I have a life outside hoovering 😆 it really doesn't bother me that much and since the likelihood of you coming to my house approaches zero perhaps you should calm down dear

Well that escalated. I'm away to open some wine thereby proving I am a drink dependent slattern.

OMG This thread is terrifying me! How on earth do you get anything else done if you vaccuum every day?

I am very tidy. i like the place to look nice. I vaccuum every 2 weeks ish. Don't think anyone has ever noticed floors being grubby

If you only vacuum once a fortnight then your floors must definitely be grubby. Of course nobody is going to mention it though!

When i am visiting someone i don't examine the floor, and even if they look a bit grubby, so what, they are for walking on, not for eating off.

I also recently got a shark and its definitely encouraged me to hoover more often! Love it!

I can never, ever imagine being do short of things to do that I would vacuum my house every day.

Once a week. We have light carpets and wooden floors, cats and teens, but we take shoes off at the door, and food is only allowed in the kitchen. I am a tyrant.

Get a robovac! Run it upstairs/downstairs on alternating days. Lifesaver. I do have a cordless as well but mainly just use it for the stairs/skirting, that I only do once a week.

Once a week, but we also have a robotic vacuum that goes around every day.

Oops, since I moved away from the hairy one (dog stayed with ex) I vacuum when I notice it is needed, maybe once a fortnight

Once or twice a day downstairs where the dog goes but once a week upstairs.

Everyone must live in massive houses because it takes me about 5 minutes to hoover my living room and kitchen/dining area and tiny hall!

Oops, since I moved away from the hairy one (dog stayed with ex)
Which one's the hairy one? The dog or the ex?

People who only hoover every fortnight, don't the tiny 'bits' bother you? That would drive me insane!

we have 3 dogs and 7 cats
Your house must be...fragrant

As a rule of thumb as and when needed but we have a very hairy Labrador so it ends up needing done daily for freshness more than anything. Not that it gets done daily

A few times daily but I have a cordless that hangs on the wall so I just kinda grab it as and when!

@AlwaysLatte No not particularly, only when they stick to the baby!

The hens spent most of the day in the kitchen, they are quite efficient at picking up bits. Although I fo have to then clear up after them. I don’t ignore the chicken shit-I do have some standards

I liked having the cleaner do it weekly though so when no longer tortured with nursery fees we’ll have her back

Wow, there are a lot of people on here who live a very different life from me.
During term time, I am now lucky enough to have a cleaner once a week, so I never vacuum.
For the 30+ years of adult life when I didn't have a cleaner, I've NEVER vacuumed more than once a week, and frequently have vacuumed a lot less often than once a fortnight.

I have a robovac so Jack the robovac vacuums every day. When dgs comes I set him off again when he leaves as well to clear up the crumbs that he leaves throwing stuff from the highchair.
