4/28 Vacuum Cleaner

Talk about how vacuum cleaners help you clean the house.

One of the home appliances that has brought about the biggest change in our lives is the vacuum cleaner. Before we had the vacuum, we used to sweep the floor with a broom. But now, we use the vacuum to clean the dust on the floors. It sucks up dust very easily. It has become a lot easier to clean the floors. Plus, these days we have robot vacuum cleaners. They have sensors that help them clean the floors automatically. You just have to turn it on and it cleans the floors for you. It even goes back to the charger by itself. Overall, vacuum cleaners have changed how we clean the house drastically.
