We have 3 large dogs and 2 kids, the entryway is usually a mess during rainy times on a small farm. This little mop takes care of it daily. Is it perfect, nope. Is it better than me trying to find time daily to mop the entryway and the area at the doggy door? Absolutely - mops everyday without complaint (which is better than me :)) I do not use the amount listed for the cleaner, I use about half. If I use the full amount on my floors the robot leaves tracks, easily solved by lowering the amount of cleaner as stated in other reviews.
