And I Thought My Floors were CLEAN!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I keep a pretty clean house. I wet mop the hardwood floors once per week, have a robotic vacuum clean the floors three times per week and dry mop intermittently. Even after the robotic vacuum cleaned only a few hours before, I used my Swiffer Sweeper and was able to pick up more dust and grime on the floor.
What's the best with my Swiffer Sweeper is it's very easy to maneuver around awkward and tight spaces of my home. Also, when the cloth gets too dirty, you just toss the sheet and start afresh. Try doing that with your dry mop!

Super convenient

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used Swiffer Mops before, and have always liked them. It is really convenient that so many come in a pack, and putting them on is very easy. The actual mop itself is relatively skinny, so it's great for storage. The scent is great-fresh and clean without being overbearing. The green scrubbing strip makes it easy to get off the harder spots without going over it again and again.
The pro that I've found is that the wetness of the wipe doesn't seem to last too long, so I find myself switching out mops pretty often. It would be great if they were able to find a way to maybe make them thicker so that more of the cleaner holds in it? Or even make it where it can be reversible, so that I could flip it over once one side got dirty, instead of going through the mops pretty quickly.
Overall, I am super pleased with the Swiffer set and Swiffer brand altogether. Definitely a customer for life!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did not receive this as a trial, but the "Sweep & Vac" is my favorite Swiffer product by far! It lets me get that little bit of dust that the regular vacuum always seems to lave behind, and is so much easier to use for smaller jobs, than having to lug out the Dyson. If you don't have one - GET ONE!

Convenient but messy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a fan of swiffer products in general so I was excited to get this little gem. I like the actual stick portion. I found it comfortable to grip sand easy to push around. I wasn't too impressed with the cleaning pad application. The pads were really wet and I found that I dripped a bunch of cleaner all over me and the floor as I was trying to figure out how to attach them to the stick. During cleaning the cloth came off and I had to reattach it. The cloth cleaned very well once on and it was quite gross how much dirt it picked up. The floors dried fairly quickly and there was no sticky residue or chemical/cleaning fluid odor left.

Better than my broom and mop!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The sweeper itself was very easy to assemble and is skinny enough to store very conveniently. It's easy to put on both the dry and wet cloths (though the wet ones do require you getting your hands wet a bit). I loved the flexibility of the sweeper and the ability to reach under lots of furniture and in small spaces easily. While the dry sweeper picked up all the dust and hairs in my room, it did not pick up the larger pieces - such as small bits of of gravel or cookie crumbs. I felt the need to sweep with a traditional broom and dustpan afterwards because of this, but for dust, dog fur, hair, and dirt, the dry cloths work great! For the wet cloths, I absolutely loved the smell. They were very saturated when I took them out of the packaging and did drip a little bit at first so make sure to put it on over the surface you're planning on mopping. The wet sweeper worked AMAZING. I share a room with 3 people and there was a party a few nights before I tried this product, so you can imagine the floors being very sticky. There were also some tire marks due to one of my roommates learning to unicycle (emphasis on learning here). To say the least, the mop was put up to a very large task. I am happy to say it worked wonders! The wet cloths really did clean all of the spots and sticky messes on the floor and it didn't require a ton of pressure or hard work. My one complaint with the wet cloths was that they were all packaged individually, which I don't believe is the best choice from an environmental standpoint. Other than that one issue, I would definitely use this product again!

Much easier than mopping...

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Full disclosure, I don't typically do the housework including cleaning the floors. This is easy enough that I can do it myself though. I even used it (both wet and dry) to clean my floor during a military deployment in a sandy environment. I would prefer if there was an easier way to load and then drop the dirty ones if possible, preferably without touching the nasty dirty ones, but the current design is simple and functional. I found that both wet and dry were important as I would get loose stuff with a dry one, scrub with a wet one, and then finish with another dry one or else it left some streaks on the flooring. I wished I knew that I would need to use both on my flooring. Also that I would go through so many refills.

Better Than Nothing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] And arguably better than a standard broom and mop.
Putting the unit together was easy enough and, because the handle comes in multiple parts, it appears that there is some level of height customization. However, this also means that the handle is a bit less sturdy than I would like. It's not flimsy by any stretch, but it does have a bit of a wobble.
The grip is nice, and definitely ergonomically designed (I flipped it by accident at one point and it was not pleasant). The design is such that it can get under things with relative ease, so it's great for getting into dusty corners or under lower furniture. The disposable pads, both dry and wet, were easily inserted.
The pads themselves were manageable. I preferred the dry, "sweeping" sheet. It grabbed a good deal of dirt and hair even after I ran the vacuum. It does not pick up anything dense or large, though - it just pushed around the bigger crumbs that it unearthed from under the cabinets.
While I haven't tried it for this purpose yet, I bet it might be good for cleaning ceiling fans and reaching dust on the walls.
The wet pad came in an enclosed foil-like packet. There is no notch, tab, or other tearable section, so I had to use scissors (not a huge deal, but less convenient). When I opened it, a bunch of collected cleaner fluid spilled onto the floor. As I was going to clean the floor anyway, it didn't matter much to me - just be careful where you open it.
It didn't seem to have enough juice to cover the whole kitchen, let alone the bathroom and living room. Because of its design, a great deal of cleaning solution gets concentrated in one area and then the rest feels dry. With a good deal of scrubbing, I was able to get out some stickier messes. At one point, I realized I had put the wet cloth on backwards and had to switch it. When I tried to remove it, it tore pretty easily. Still, it definitely picked up even more dirt.
All in all, this is definitely more convenient to use than a broom and dust pan, or a mop and bucket. I definitely think it's a great replacement for sweeping. That said, my small apartment would need two or more wet cloths for a decent once-over and using them gets a bit messy. For mopping purposes, I'll stick with what I've got.
