    It vacuums, cleans, and dries the floor there is a squegee on the bottom and just ****s all the dirty water into the dirty tank, you have another tank that holds water and cleaner. Bissel makes a cleaner but I run a few drops of lysol or bleach so the floors get disinfected there's scrub brushes that spin when you have it on wash. it cleans up glitter

        Dawn and bleach creates a chlorine gas. I would find something else to clean with.

          Have you tried a steam mop? I like to use that so there are no chemicals on the floors to leave a residue on babies skin.

Since everytihng is off the floor, it takes 5 minutes top to run the rag over it go get anything that is stuck on.
            My DH and I were just discussing getting a Roomba. Do they "really" work well? Worth the cost?

            We have a new lab puppy (yellow) and I can't believe he isn't bald considering the amount of hair he leaves everywhere!

            Did not know this..... about killed myself cleaning my bathroom a few years ago. Now to this day if I smell Dawn dish soap, I gag and get an instant headache.

              Just saw this. Yes, it works really well BUT, you have to be able to get the stuff off the floor. My house is divided, so I put up the chairs in the kitchen, put up the "wall" move the garbage out of the kitchen, and it cleans the whole thing. You can touch the floor and there is not one speck of dust. Then I just run a microfiber cloth with a bit of floor cleaner over it and it's all clean. Do the same in the LR. Shove things in the kitchen (I'm lucky, it goes under my couch), put up the dining room chairs, and run it.

                It is not big and isn't heavy. I or my assistant use it every day. I have 7 boys here everyday (you know what I mean ) The floor looks clean constantly.
