Overall this wet vac did a pretty good job. I have two dogs and kids and it helped clean up vomit stains on my rug and sticky food messes under my table. It cut out a step of having to get my steam cleaner out for the really messy spills. I wish I could see the water spraying to get a sense of how much I'm using but it moves easily and has a long cord. And the cleaning mode is impressive and I want to my vacuum to stay clean and maintain it long term I found the instructions a little unclear. It didn't seem to use a lot of the water when in cleaning mode even though it said to fill the clean tank. I received this product as a member of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.
