First I have to say that the assembly was super easy and ready to go in no time flat. I used this in my small apartment with a window until and a small shedding pooch so needless to say I have lots of dust everywhere and constantly. I have laminate wood flooring throughout except for the kitchen and bathroom in which there's ceramic tile. I was able to keep my floors dust and dirt free rather easily without having to lug a broom and dust pan around. This thing is genius
