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????

My cleaner does it weekly. I try to do it every couple of days in between that but in reality I might manage to do it once.

We have a super shedding dog, two cats and three super messy children. And I have a chronic health condition. The two don't go together well, but life is what it is. The children are all healthy and happy and that's what matters.

Our cleaner does it once a week. And we run the Dyson cordless around the dining room/kitchen probably once a day to get the copious amount of food ds drops as he eats..

Twice a week. Need to do more now I have a dog.

I should probably Hoover more often - youngest DC incapable of eating without spreading crumbs in a large circumference around him. I generally vacuum a couple of times a week. DH might do it once a week in a very showoffy and performative way.

I a week the kitchen (wooden floor) most days.

Upstairs may be visited by the vacuum each month. Depends if I can face kicking the Lego and playmobil out the way.

Once a fortnight, when the cleaner comes.

I live in a small apartment with 1 toddler. I vacuum every single day? Sometimes twice. I can't stand any bits on the floor, fluff or anything. And my hair fricking malts (wanna shave it off)

And frankly, if you have pets, and you're not vacuuming everyday and you have carpets, that's just fucking unhygienic

Once a week in well-used areas unless someone's coming over to stay.

And we don't wear shoes in the flat either, that's a whole new issue in itself

Four times a week. I like a spanking clean house. Bathrooms five times a week. I go through so many audiobooks when cleaning.

Once a week right through, and the kitchen every day.

Either everyday or every other

Once a week.

Try to do it once a week. No pets and a no shoe house. Mostly hard floors too.

Once or twice a day.Ive got a cordless dyson so its not any hassle I just whizz round.

I don’t understand this. It is hassle. You have to get it out. You have to ‘whizz round’ - it’s not a whizz. You go over every inch of your floor. You have to put it away. At some point you have to empty it. Do it if you want, it’s your house and your life, but don’t pretend it’s nothing.

every other day. used to do it less often but since march the DC are at home and I am WFH. creates a lot more mess than in non Covid times

@cardibach

It takes less than 30 mins, its really not a hassle.

Robot Hoover's people!

Weekly - have three animals .

Vacuum and mop every day. Thought that was standard.

@Awkwarddough

Dyson V11, 1-2 times a day in the living room and kitchen. The rest of the house maybe once a fortnight 😫

Moving the toddlers toys and Hoovering the living room just makes everything feel so put together and it literally takes 2 minutes!

No, it doesn’t. Two minutes is nothing. You might (maybe) be able to put your child’s toys away in that time, if they aren't spread out too far and you have very good storage actually in your main room. Getting the hoover out takes time. Putting it away takes time. Emptying it takes time (not needed every time, I m ow, but sometimes). 10 mins maybe. It’s ok, do it if you want but I’m fed up with people suggesting these jobs take time amounts if time so that everyone who doesn’t do them multiple times a day must be lazy.

I have things I’d rather do with the 30 minutes for at least 13 days of 14.

For all those that love clean and have hard floors, I've recently purchased the Vax hoover and mop 2in1 and its AMAZING

@cardibach Cordless hoovers are easy. Literally 5 minutes and downstairs is done.

@cardibach

Then I guess it just comes down to priorities and everyone is different

3 dogs and seven cats and you don’t hoover at least once a day?! That sound pretty gross actually. I have a dog and hoover at least once a day downstairs. He not allowed upstairs so they get done every second day normally. All that pet hair and dirt, and fluff, and dry dead skin, and anything they’ve brought in in their paws, what about crumbs in your kitchen? What about when you brush your hair?? You must lose a couple of hairs when you brush? Sorry. I find that quite horrible. Is there an extreme reason you can’t hoover every day??
