snickelfritz Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 handheld stays on the dryer on it's charger upright and the little spot cleaner stay in our hallway coat closet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elise1mds Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 The closet in the laundry room, along with coats, brooms, mops, a ladder, the kitty litter scooper, buckets, and a spare bulk bag of cat food :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtroad Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 :) Sometimes our vacuum gets hidden in the corner by the piano! Just easier & with pets (needed often). The right place for it is in a linen closet upstairs (where extra blankets, throw rugs and sheets are stored). It is a tiny closet & works perfect.

gingersmom Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I would like to keep mine in the basement out of sight. Unfortunately I have a really bad back and can't deal with carrying it up and down the stairs. So it sits in a spare bedroom/tv room/everything room.

dirty ethel rackham Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 In the laundry room. OUr laundry room is small (and the gatherer of all things clutter-like.) But at least that has a home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Mungo Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 In my bedroom closet. I used to store it in our laundry room but we don't have enough room for that in this house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaxMom Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 In theory, we keep it in the furnace room. In reality, I believe it is currently living in the dining room (unless my husband put it away after he vacuumed the car yesterday... what are the odds? It's been in the dining room or foyer for months) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homeschoolmom4 Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I keep mine in the living room in the corner. Our laundry room is too small. When company comes I have to find a place to stick it or they would think it's a decoration, LOL!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garga Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 In the dining room, next to a bookcase and a wall. I don't think anyone ever sees it because the dr table is on the other side of the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impish Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 In the corner of the supposed dining room, which is, in reality, the computer room/home school storing stuff area. We don't have a closet of any kind on the main floor of this house :glare: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellie Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 In our last house, in the coat closet. In this house, one vac downstairs in a closet, another one upstairs in the finished room over the garage, which we use for storage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plucky Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I park mine against the wall in the dining room. It looks like I vacuum and we don't do it enough. Ah, well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nukeswife Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I have 2 because I have a bad back so carrying it up and down stairs would never work. The downstairs one is in the front hall ( no room in closets here and I vacuum every day because we have dogs) the upstairs ones is sandwiched on the landing between the chalkboard/whiteboard easel on wheels and the dvd racks. That way the kids can get to it easy and vacuum the upstairs for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joannqn Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 Thanks everyone. Looks like my best bet is going to end up being against a wall somewhere...maybe next to the bookshelf in the school room. Aren't there cute vacuum covers so they don't look so hideous sitting there? Our one small closet downstairs is crammed already. We don't have a mudroom. Laundry is in the dirt cellar downstairs, which floods all winter. I don't think I'd vacuum often enough if I had to drag it up and down stairs to do it, so I want to keep it on the main floor since it needs vacuuming more often.
