I recently purchased a small cordless vacuum for cleaning my stairs. I wondered why it came in a large box, until I opened it and found six accessories that I can attach to make it do everything but bake bread. I have no idea how to use any of them nor do I think I have a need to attach them to my mini vacuum. Why do I need an extension to make my mini vacuum into a large, cumbersome tool? I wanted a mini vacuum!
I didn’t want to toss out the box of accessories, so I put them all in a large plastic bag and labeled it “small vacuum.” I put that plastic bag in my laundry room with the other large plastic bags filled with accessories for everything from my larger vacuums (Don’t judge me because I have a two-story house so, two vacuums), my cordless cleaning brush and my not so portable steam cleaner.
My shed is also stuffed with accessories for my various pieces of outdoor equipment and power tools. I do not understand why everything has to come with extra pieces. I imagine that they could be useful if one knew how to put them together, knew what they are used for, or could find the instruction manuals that might answer those questions.
