I use it pretty much all day long! I have 3 huskies and they shed a lot of fur and they bring in their muddy paws from outside. I just turn this thing on and let it do it’s job! The tank is just the right size for the area I need cleaned (about 800 sqft) and the wet “mop” picks up all the dog hair and fur leaving my floors perfectly clean. Highly recommend if you have dogs, children, or if you are just tired of cleaning.
