Should I use a vacuum cleaner or broom on my apartment's floors?

It depends on the type of flooring you have and personal preference.

If your apartment has carpets or rugs, it is generally recommended to use a vacuum cleaner to effectively remove dust, dirt, and debris trapped in the fibers. Vacuums have specialized suction power and tools designed for carpet cleaning.

On the other hand, if your apartment has hard floors such as hardwood, laminate, or tile, you can use a broom to sweep the floors. A broom is effective in removing loose dirt and debris from hard surfaces. Additionally, using a broom can be more convenient and quicker for small areas.

Ultimately, it is up to you to decide which method you prefer and what works best for your specific floors and cleaning needs. You may also consider using a combination of both tools, starting with a broom to remove larger debris and then using a vacuum cleaner for a more thorough cleaning.
