Five Places You Forget to Vacuum

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of BISSELL Homecare, Inc. for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

My home is filled with wall-to-wall carpeting, which means that I do a lot of vacuuming. I try to vacuum frequently to keep my house clean, but I have to admit there are a few spots that I overlook!

BISSELL’S PowerGlide® with Lift-Off® Technology Vacuum

The areas I forget to vacuum are those out-of-the-way or hard to reach spots, so I am very intrigued by BISSELL’S new PowerGlide® with Lift-Off® Technology vacuum.

This powerful, yet light vacuum has a one-step removable pod for portable cleaning, swivel steering, a 27-foot cord and a long-stretch hose, all of which would make vacuuming those hard to clean portions of a home easier. I would love that! I am always looking for a vacuum that would make vacuuming things like my home’s carpeted stairs, and my cleaning my home’s custom living room drapes easier.

I am planning to invite some friends over this coming weekend and do some entertaining, so you know I will be hitting those spots that I tend to forget to vacuum. When you vacuum your home before guests arrive, be sure to vacuum these often overlooked spots.

1. Stairs and Railings – The stairs and railings in my home don’t get cleaned as often as they should. That’s because I don’t have a lightweight BISSELL vacuum (hint! Hint!). I struggle constantly with lugging my heavy vacuum up and down the stairs. I once almost fell down the stairs when the vacuum’s handle came unlocked and knocked me hard on the head! Ouch!

1. Ceiling Corners – My home’s ceilings are 9 feet high, so the ceiling corners can get dusty. (I have even noticed a cob web or two from time to time!) I try to reach up to the corners with my current vacuum (which isn’t a BISSELL, unfortunately) but the hose just isn’t long enough – a long vacuum hose is key to cleaning this hard to reach area!
2. Underneath Furniture – I admit to missing these areas. Vacuuming is a hard enough job without having to move a lot of heavy furniture! But with BISSELL’S flexible vacuum hose, I should be able to reach under furniture no sweat!
3. Window Doors and Frames – These areas of a home can get rather dusty, so it pays to give these areas of the home a quick vacuum from time to time!
4. Behind the Bathroom Toilet – This area of the home tends to get dusty, because admit it – who wants to get on one’s hand and knees and reach behind the toilet to clean the floor there? But with BISSELL’s long vacuum hose, you don’t have to get too close to the toilet. Now, that is a good thing!
