Holiday hero

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The swiffer sweeper makes life a lot easier. With 4 pets in my house, my floors always need extra attention. The dry cloths pick up dirt and fur with ease, and the wet cloths tackle any gross residue without having to wait for the floor to dry.

My basic impression is So-So

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well, I have been using Swiffer products for years. I LOVE, LOVE my Swiffer Wet Jet, so I was excited to use my new Swiffer Sweeper Dry + Wet. I was fairly disappointed in it overall. Let's start with the DRY Sweeper..
I like the convenience of the DRY sweeper. It was SUPER easy to assemble - just assemble about 5 pieces/poles and you are ready to Swiff! The DRY sweeper is pretty good for cleaning up pet hair (we have 2 dogs/cats) and for doing light jobs like cleaning up before company or as mentioned, picking up pet hair. It pivots nicely and is great on our hardwood floors and tile in the bathroom. I like that I can maneuver it easily around hard to reach areas like behind the toilet, under furniture that is heavy to move (couches or end tables), etc. I did feel the DRY Sweeper was a bit flimsy. It is super lightweight so even a child can use it, but you do have to use a bit of force/effort to push it across the floor. With lighter effort, the base will flip over and over. I can see this DRY Sweeper being nice for older people who may want to do lightweight cleaning and not needing/wanting to get down on their hands/knees - but again, you do need to use some effort. I also like that the DRY Sweeper keeps me from getting down on my hands and knees in some cases, but the DRY Sweeper is NOT good for picking up spills of any substance like stuck on spills or anything that isn't too flat/light (ex: cereal, crumbs, etc.). For those items, it will basically just push the items around on the floor. Basically, the DRY Sweeper is good for light/shallow/surface cleaning. If you have bigger spills, then the Swiffer DRY Sweeper is not going to be sufficient.
As far as the WET Sweeper, now that was a BIG mess. Once I took a cloth out of the package, it proceeded to drip all over the place! It was overly damp and continued to be a mess while I was trying to attach it to the Sweeper. I had to toss it in the sink just to keep from getting the laminate floor in the kitchen full of wet spots. The packaging for the WET cloths needs to be improved. I'm not used to needing to mop up the mess I'm making with a mop before I even get it attached! Once attached, the wetness stopped too quickly. I had to keep changing the WET Sweeper Cloth as it dried up too quickly while I was cleaning the kitchen floor - definitely a waste. What was so wet and damp before attached definitely didn't sustain through the cleaning process. I do like that the WET Sweeper is convenient also, doesn't have one on their hands/knees scrubbing and you just toss the cloth after using so there are no smelly/dirty rags to wash. However, the WET Sweeper is too wet/messy upon taking out of the box, it doesn't stay moist long enough when attached, and it would definitely be expensive to keep purchasing more Swiffer WET refills. I feel the WET Sweeper was the equivalent of wiping my floors with a damp cloth - it just is too messy and it's not great for stuck-on stains - mainly due to needing to use force as the handle is too lightweight.
In closing, I would use the DRY Swiffer most often - great for lightweight cleaning and pet hair. For the WET Swiffer, I would choose to use my old Swiffer Wet Jet. I love the convenience of the solution being attached, it also has a gripper section in the middle of the Swiffer that allows for better grasping, and it definitely feels like I am getting my floors cleaner. This Swiffer Sweeper Wet + Dry could be improved by making it a bit more substantial in weight, better container to keep the WET cloths in, a gripper on the upper poles to allow for better gripping/control, and the WET cloths lasting longer with the solution to clean more of an area w/o needing to be changed. That's it!

Swiffer Works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am impressed with the power of the Swiffer. I have two boys and a dog. I have pergo floors in my entire home. The Swiffer has cut my cleaning time of the floors in half. I now have time to dust every week and concentrate on other cleaning tasks then floors which took two hours. I am happy to have the Swiffer in my life.

Works Pretty Darn Good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I had used a Swiffer Sweeper in the past, it had been quite a few years, since it had first came out, since i had given it a try. It's fairly easy to set up and use, which I like, and works like a charm. My only qualm, was that the pet hair didn't stick to it as much as I would have liked. It did attract a lot of it, but I ended up pushing most of it around with little puffs of it flying away every so often. In summary, the Swiffer is great for those quick little cleaning jobs that you want to do in between getting the huge vacuum or mop out for, but not good enough that you wouldn't need them at all.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works awesome! I cleaned my floors, and amazing that this thing picked up all the dirt, dust, and even stuff I didn't know was there! I love this thing and highly recommend! You will love cleaning ( well, maybe not love) but at least it will make you feel better knowing that they are really clean!

Great "Quick" Cleaning

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the convenience the product provides for a quick, hassle free cleaning experience. I love convenience cleaning items, but do wish that they had a reusable option for the cloths.
I have also used the cloths for dusting without the base, and they are awesome for that!! They collect way more dust than a paper towel would.

Swiffer made floor cleaning a breeze

from Cincinnati, OH
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There weren't any instructions on how to put the handle together, but they weren't needed, it was so simple just pop each piece into one another. The dry sweeper cloth was easy to attach and did a good job collecting the dust. I used it in the master bathroom and it definitely picked up all the hair on the floor. The wet cloth took a bit longer to attach, mainly because it was wet and was dripping as I attached it, beyond that it was simple to attach as well. The wet cloth had enough wetness to clean my bathroom floor and a few other vinyl areas around the house. The swiffer all in all was very easy to use, grab it, quick clean up and small enough to store in a corner.

For your more lady-like messes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly I had hoped the Swiffer would be a little more useful than it is. As a person who walks a lot in all weather, and has two large dogs, it is rare that my laminate florring suffers a mishap small enough for the Swiffer to be able to deal with it. And even on those occasions unwrapping and applying the little towelette thing takes longer than just grabbing my trusty old mop.
