I feel like my house is constantly a fucking mess. My wife and I work 80 hours between us and we have a 2 year old and I feel like it's constantly a mess.

We do what we can and often spend a couple hours on a weekend tidying but it's a losing battle.

How do you cope/keep on top of things?

I can certainly see there being a habit aspect to it, and once it's tidy as you say it's a minute or two to keep it that way.

Do you have different floors to your house?

I could see it helping with the ground floor but still neglecting the bedroom level, etc

Live in an apartment, so that definitely helps. It tidied the floor in every room. But honestly, it’s not so much the vacuum, more so the habit of cleaning a minute or two when I leave the home.

As well as picking stuff up when I’m done with them obviously.
