Very smooth over hard floors doesn’t scrape as other machines do and pick up on hard floors is extremely goodequally powerful suction in lift away cleaning the stairs and the car is a breezeunfortunately it is not possible to remove the lift away part to use just the wand with the floor head as you could with my shark so it is not possible to clean under my bed or my sofas which is a niggle but because of its other strengths i am forgiving it thisonly a crevice tool and a mini turbo brush
