Stick & Broom Vacuums Tips
Using a Stick Vacuum in the Bathroom
Dust, hair, beauty products and lint call for a stick vacuum that can maneuver in and around the small spaces of a bathroom.Because this is one of the most used rooms in a house, a buildup of products can fall to the floor and can leave a bathroom looking dull and grungy. But with a little maintenance, your bathroom can be clean all the time. A quick run through with a sweeper is a great way to make a bathroom look clean and fresh without even one labored breath!

Using a Stick Vacuum in the Bathroom
Dirt Devil Tip: In a busy household, many dislike cleaning their bathroom. However, touching it up for just a minute every day can keep it from becoming an overwhelming task. Hang towels on hooks instead of towel rods, spray down the shower with a antibacterial spray to freshen and use a stick vacuum to suck up hair and dust. Because stick vacuums are light and maneuver easily, it's perfect to use in a bathroom. Many stick vacuums are also bagless, which makes cleaning even easier because you can simply dump the cup and be on your way!

A Stick Vacuum is Perfect for RV's
There’s no better place for a stick vacuum than an RV or motorhome. Cordless stick vacuums offer the chance to keep surroundings clean and fresh, while not invading space. Bulky upright vacuums with long cords are wholly out of place in such confined surroundings. Another option for quick cleaning jobs in an RV is a broom vacuum. Because it's cordless, you can sweep the steps or entry ways into the RV and vacuum the dirt up.

The Stick Vacuum and the Workstation
Dirt Devil Tip: Kids love to help and should be allowed to do so every chance they get! A floor sweeper is a perfect way to let young ones safely participate in cleaning up messes in and around play areas or near dining or snack tables. Cordless stick vacuums are also perfect. They are lightweight and get the job done, giving children a great sense of accomplishment. If you can make chores somewhat fun, then kids are more apt to help out around the house. The better they feel about helping, the more they’ll want to!

Limited Dorm Rooms and a Broom Vacuum
There’s not much space in a dorm room but thankfully, a broom vacuum can be tucked conveniently out of the way until needed. It's a perfect match for such limited space. The last thing that a busy student really needs is to figure out how to affectively maneuver a full-sized vacuum, while wrestling with cords at the same time. A broom vacuum can be used to get those dust bunnies under the bed and suck up dirt at the doorway or under a desk.

A Broom Vacuum as a Back-Up
Every house has a vacuum to take care of the large jobs, but some jobs are just too small to drag out an upright or canister vacuum. A broom vacuum is excellent as a "back-up" system. Lightweight and rechargeable, it is perfect for handling those mini-messes that come with every day life. With the just the right amount of suction to deal with crumbs on a hard surface floor, it's modest-sized dust cup holds enough to make kitchen clean-ups convenient. The best part is, if you're looking for a broom vacuum that matches your home's color scheme, there are broom vacs out there that come in a variety of colors.

The Stick Vacuum and the Workstation
Every craft table, workstation or garden table should have a stick vacuum in their arsenal of clean-up weapons. They are light weight and rechargeable, yet powerful enough to make short work of messes. Consider this: you drop a potted plant on the ground. That's never a fun cleanup, but a stick vacuum has enough power to suck up the potting soil without too much effort. (Plus, a bagless stick vacuum can also work as a retrieval system for a lost part or piece of a project.) A stick vac with a large head is best for carpeted workstations such as a sewing room, while a stick vac with a compact head is great for workstations with a hard floor surface, such as a woodwork shop or garden shed.

Using a Stick Vacuum for Hardwood Floors
In order to prevent a hardwood floor's finish from breaking down, you should always vacuum, not sweep, debris from the surface of a hardwood floor. Large bulky upright vacuums can be cumbersome for such a task. A stick vacuum, however, is lightweight and perfect for picking up left-behind dust and crumbs. These rechargeable vacuums can be easily stowed in out-of-the-way places, like a pantry or linen closet.
