This hard floor cleaner is the best one that have used. It is light, compact, and packs a punch that cleans like no mop ever could. It breaks down dirt and grim that I didnt know was there. I have used it on hardwood, tile,and laminate with ease. The only thing for me is, the fresh water tank does not stand by itself when filling it. The base is too small and tops over. Even with that, I LOVE my Hoover PowerDash
