Revolutionize Your Cleaning Routine with This Vacuum Upgrade

If you want to effectively clean your carpets and rugs, use slow and steady strokes in a straight line against the nap, then pull the vacuum back along the same line to pick up dirt and debris. Repeat this pattern, overlapping 50% of each previous row, and then turn 90 degrees and repeat. For hardwood floors, use the vacuum's "hard floor" setting or a soft-bristled brush attachment to avoid scratching the surface.
