Roommate Chore Wheel

Spin the Roommate Chore Wheel
A wheel works only with a clear house agreement
| Agree on | Example |
|---|---|
| Scope | What “clean the kitchen” includes and excludes. |
| Frequency | Daily, weekly, after use, or when a shared bin is full. |
| Supplies | Who buys shared products and where they are stored. |
| Swaps | How illness, work schedules, travel, or accessibility are handled. |
Keep the rotation balanced
Break up large tasks
Separate a demanding area into smaller, comparable jobs when needed.
Track recurring effort
Consider daily invisible work as well as weekly cleaning tasks.
Discuss problems directly
A wheel cannot resolve repeated missed duties, supply costs, or different expectations.

Roommate Chore Wheel FAQs
Does the wheel assign a roommate?
This preset chooses a chore. Use a separate name list or rotation to assign people.
Can each chore appear once?
Yes. No-repeat mode removes every selected task until reset.
What if chores require different effort?
Split, pair, or balance tasks through the household agreement rather than relying on chance alone.
