It's not a 'hard' job persay, but it requires patience, planning, and a bit of common sense when using the sanders to prep the floor for stain/varnish.
The drum sander is easy to manouver but you need a steady rhythm to get a smooth finish. The edge sander takes a bit of practice so best to start in the closets with it.
Also depending how much area you have to do you have to get all the furniture out, and the dust gets everywhere. The last house i did, a 900Sq bungalow, 3 bedrooms with closets, living room, dining room and hallway, we moved everything into storage on thursday, I started friday after work and we were back in on monday. It was a long weekend but turned out fantastic. haha
