Overall this is a great machine and seriously cleans the floors. Much cleaner than mopping or hand washing. Pretty simple to use as well. Be sure to read all instructions carefully and follow them. The machine is free moving, but a little heavy on the arms. The side of the scrubbing head does not get right up to the walls so just plan on hitting any walls with the front of the head. As an engineer I always over analyze everything so I can tell you that it's an amazing machine.
I used this after I sweep to vacuum and mop at the same time. It's amazing! I can literally feel a difference in my floors from a regular mop and the cross wave. I do wish the parts didn't need to be cleaned abs dried for so long but it's totally worth it!!!!
This floor cleaner is the bomb! It works great, it is so easy to use. We have over 2500 ft.² of tile and it did the job lickety-split with great results and the solution does not have an offensive odor.
It cleans the floor without leaving it all wet and saturated like my old Hoover Floormate used to do. I'm not sure how well it would clean an extremely dirty floor. Mine looked good after I finished cleaning with it and it saved me a lot of time.
I was concerned that this wouldn't be strong enough for my household of 3 dogs. I used it today on my hardwood and tile floors and it worked great. The suction is very strong. I used it on a couple of area rugs, also, and it cleaned them well. The grout on the tile floor is much cleaner than it was. Great overall product.
