Back in the day, the task of vacuuming a carpeted staircase posed a danger. Vacuums were big, clunky and quite heavy. The way you would accomplish this task amounted to making your way slowly up the staircase, one step at a time. You would hope that the vacuum would not get away from you and tumble down the stairs, taking you with it. Consequently, you vacuumed the staircase less often than necessary.
These days, things have improved. Vacuums now weigh much less than in those days. The parts that were formerly made of metal are now lightweight plastics. Many vacuum manufacturers have created much smaller models that make cleaning carpeted staircases much easier and less hazardous. Hoover , in particular, manufactures a vac they call portaPOWER. This small portable canister-type vac measures approximately four inches wide and 15 inches long. It will sit sturdily on a stair step while you vacuum surrounding stairs and risers. Its cord is long enough that the entire staircase can be completed without moving the plug.
Remember to look up in the stairwell. Use an extendable duster to remove cobwebs near the ceiling. Now you have a totally clean staircase.
