Known uses
| Caster(s) | Date | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Dobby | 31 July 1992 | Used it to move a pudding, though Harry Potter was blamed for it. |
| Hermione Granger | 25 December, 1997 | Used it to move Harry Potter to get him into his bunk while he was unconscious after their visit in Godric's Hollow. |

Behind the scenes
- Pottermore seems to give the spell a time limit; perhaps house-elves can only cast it for a certain amount of time before tiring, or perhaps the spell truly will only last fourteen seconds; the cause, however, is at present unknown.
- This spell and Levioso have curiously similar effects; it may be that the two are the same, or potential variants.
- In the film, Dobby moves the cake from the table over to Mason's wife's head, where he dumps it.
