The vacuum did what I expected. We tested it out in our lament wood flooring and did our normal vacuuming. It did amazing. Picked up everything. Next came the real test. We tested wet cereal that one of our kids happily spilled on the floor. It vacuumed it up nicely. Down side was the mop function left streak marks on the floor. Also when filling up the container with water and cleaning liquid, the hole the fill it was awkwardly placed on an angle which made it so that you had to stop and put it up right to see if you were close to the recommended stop line for both the water and cleaning liquid.
