IF YOU HAVE BACK TROUBLE, THIS IS THE APPLIANCE FOR YOU. THIS IS A BACK SAVER, TIME SAVER AND MONEY SAVER. MY KITCHEN FLOOR IS 25 YEARS OLD AND READY TO BE REPLACED AND MY BRAAVA CLEANS WELL ENOUGH IN THE KITCHEN THAT I DON'T HAVE TO HIRE HELP DUE TO A BAD BACK. I'M A MESSY COOK AND IT'S EVEN MORE EFFECTIVE IF I USE IT ON A DAILY BASIS AFTER DINNER AT NIGHT. MY DAUGHTER PURCHASED THIS FOR ME THIS CHRISTMAS, I DON'T KNOW HOW I MANAGED WITHOUT IT...IT DOES AND EQUALLY GOOD JOB ON HARDWOOD FLOORS USING BONA OR JUST PLAIN HOT WATER.
