Bona with the washable cloth head and the built-in squirt bottle for when you hit something sticky. Just as good, less repeat cost. I do use Swiffers to dust, though. They're like any other duster, maybe a little better cause they have that static cling going on and you can throw away all your filthy skin flakes when you're done.

It seems reasonably straight forward to me that discarding one or two swiffy pads every time you mop is much more wasteful than the few drops of cleaner a normal person would use. but I am not a scientist so who knows lol but i bet most people here also go through a roll of paper towels a week instead of cycling through (washing) a few dish rags every month so just go a head and add a few swiffer pads to your monthly pile of waste i mean what ever

Neutrino posted:Swiffer does not work very good on dried poo poo. For that you have to use a scrub brush and hot water with Ammonia. Dry swiffers are essentially useless. They just push stuff around that you eventually need to pick up with a dust pan. So I just use a broom/dust pan. The wet ones might be a little better but corners still suck. Bubsy 3-D 2 Deep 4 Me posted:One time I got really drunk and went to Swiffer the floors, and I put all of my weight on the handle to support my drunken, stumbling self, and snapped the handle. Keep this in mind, op. A swiffer won't offer you the support you need. This is a problem I have worried about, no booze required. If you actually have to scrub something with the swiffer, there would probably be a good chance of breaking the cheap thing in half. My current problem is that my kitchen is probably fake wood laminate. And it isn't very big. I've been wanting to get a regular push wet mop but it might be overkill. It would take far more time preparing it then the 30 seconds it would take to mop it. Overkill mop vs mop that doesn't really work well. Oh, oh what shall I do?

But the commercials make it seem so easy.  No, that's what generally happens. It always starts falling apart halfway through or gets so dirty so fast that you have to push the wet gross poo poo that it picked up into a pile and throw it away. Just like a dry one, but nastier.

As usual, the tools our forebears used to do basic loving poo poo are generally much more suited to the task than whatever new flimsy disposable gimmick some company thought up to get people to consume consume consume and make them a bunch of money.

Our forebears lived abhorrent unhygienic lives and were also dumber than you and I. Shorter lifespans was one thing they got right

I live in Ireland and my floor is made of dirt so using one of these things actually makes matters way worse.

But when it comes to cleaning a floor, I'm of the opinion innovation pretty much peaked with the invention of soap.

FedEx Mercury posted:That's the landlord's problem. sure, but that's the property that makes hard floors get dirtier, or at least need more regular cleaning, than carpet. on a carpet a bunch of grime sieves down through, on hard floors it all just sits there.

Mops are not clean why would they do anything to help your floors. I honestly don't even care about my floor being superbly sanitary I just want it to look and feel clean which a swiffer wet pad accomplishes handily.
