Ideally, you will vacuum your dorm room 1-2 times per week.  That said, if you think, “There is no way I’m vacuuming my dorm room,” consider a set-it-and-forget-it option like the robot vacuum. Another low-commitment option is to ask a neighbor to borrow their vacuum.  If you want to ensure you have a clean and comfortable room to retreat in, we recommend committing to a cleaning schedule and having a vacuum on hand.
