The vacuum is designed to take on both solid and liquid messes that would ordinarily need to be cleaned up with a paper towel, and it can be enhanced with a cleaning solution that's sold separately. The vacuum cleaner has a scrub brush to handle deep cleaning, plus a detachable tank that can be placed in the dishwasher for easy cleaning. The Cordless Spill + Spot Cleaner is equipped to handle everything from [kid and pet messes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/xforce-flex-1560) to mud stains and more.
