I have been searching for a product to help me keep the floor clean which is 95% wood and constantly being abused by our cats, all 14 of them, all indoors always. Cats are mostly self-cleaning and do their business in the litter boxes except when they don't haha. Cat pee is pretty strong and will smell up your home quickly if not handled/cleaned properly. I found a product that controls the scent if used a lot on the fabric of the furniture, but bending over and kneeling on the floor wiping up a pee got very old and the search for a floor cleaner began. Tried a couple of brands of wet floor vacs but was not happy with the operation of their product. I saw the ads for the Shark and they of course looked good, but there was something about the simplicity and operation of the Shark that appealed to me....I ordered it. This sounds pitched, but as soon as I tried it I loved it. That evening I set out to clean all the floor spaces because I liked the smell of the cleaner agent and the floor looked great. Pretty simple to use. After all my experiences I knew to do some prep first on the floor. (1) Wipe up any damp fresh pee first. No need to suck up unnecessary pee and spread it around as you mop/clean....it just makes sense to do it this way as I have done all along. (2) Vacuum. Sure the Shark can do this as a process of cleaning, but only for small areas before you need to stop and empty the dirty water tank and remove larger collections of hair to help keep the vacuum working properly. Starting with a dry from pee, mostly dirt/hair-free floor will give the Shark its best performance. (3) Use your Shark.
I do have a complaint. (1) The cleaning solution tank could be larger. My situation with 14 cats is far from normal and I have special needs, one of which is a lot of solutions for my bigger needs. (2) On that note I think the cleaner solution is expensive. It does seem to kill the smells very well, but it's still expensive.
Overall the Shark does the job for me and if it works for me then there should be no reason it won't work for you.
I give it 4 1/2 stars out of five. I like it.

excellent hardwood floored house appliance
I love this thing. ive had it about a month now since moving to a house that is entirely hardwood, tile and laminate flooring. I have a husky a jack Russell and a calico cat and this thing will vacuum the pet hair along with the other debris that accumulates naturally on a floor. The dirty water collector does need rinsed after about 10 minutes because the hair will tell the internal sensor the tank is full but i dont feel inconvenienced by that considering how easy it is to do. the floors dry within few minutes and if you are careful to use the proper proportions of cleaner water and disinfectant there are no issues with streaking even after more than several uses. the manufacturers manual does say that you should replace the roller brush every 6 months. it also says you should only use their version of cleaner but i have been using my own. the self cleaning does a decent job rinsing the roller and cleaning the unit but after every use i pull it apart and rinse each part separately. again the pet hair makes this a necessity for me. i also wipe down the unit on the inside of the roller brush housing after every use to keep the sensor from being confused by the hair. the unit will run for a half hour and does require empties and refills during use if used for that long. the number of passes you make on the floor will determine the number of empty and refills you will need but i will cover about 240 square feet (2 rooms at 10 ft by 12 ft) with a quick mop before and emtpy and refill is needed. if i do more of a deep wash so to speak i need to empty refill after a single room at that size. it is easy to operate. it has really only two control buttons on unit aside from the buttons used to disassemble it. an on off and a floor mode button. the on off also toggles the unit into self clean while it is on the floor station it comes with that charges it. now because my unit is still very new it runs for a decent amount of time i cannot speak to the total amount of runtime before a dead battery as of now. but it will easily do 30 minutes on a single charge. it takes about 4 hours to recharge fully. I have also not used my unit on carpet yet so i cannot speak to how well it does but i am very satisfied with this product as an addition to my home.
