Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Vacuuming once a month seems insane to me. Like, "how can you live like this?" level of crazy.

We have two dogs and a cat, so even once a week is pushing it for us. I vacuum just the living room and the canister is packed.

I’ve got two labs and our roomba does a pretty good job.

I did end up buying two though because if you try to bring one upstairs and manually empty it then it starts bugging out if the base is on a different floor.

Our house is a little obnoxious for them. When you come in the front door, you're on a tile floor. To the left there's a step down to a dining room that connects at the far end to the kitchen. At the end of the tile on the right is a step down to the living room, hall, and a bedroom we use as an office. Then there are stairs to the upper level with three bedrooms. So to cover the place with robot vacuums, we'd need four of them. I was tempted to get one for upstairs, but we have one for the dining room and kitchen and it's gotten so noisy. I don't want the noise upstairs. I'm sure a newer one would be quieter.
