I have a beautiful, multi-level home that I just refinished all the
hardwood floors in. Not only are there a lot of levels, but each room
is fairly small. My standard, upright vacuum cleaner keeps marking up
the walls every time I attempt to move it from room to room, not to
mention that it's a pain to maneuver it around! With all the dust that
collects, I NEED to clean the floors often- can anyone suggest any other
appliances I can use to keep the new finish "new??"


A broom? More seriously, is the vacume marking up the walls
when you're carrying it from place to place, or when you're
trying to use it? If the latter, why isn't your baseboard
taking the hits? That's what it's for.
