Swiffer WetJet Starter Kit Reviews

Transcript of Video Review

I am reviewing the Swiffer Wetjet Starter Kit, which comes with the actual jet and mop. It comes with the refill cleaner and it comes with the Swiffer Wetjet pads You put the pad on the end of the mop. There's Velcro pads there and then you stick the refill cleaner into the mop. I've actually used this product for a couple years and unfortunately, I'm totally over it. It seems to really just push dirt around. I vacuum first, of course, before I do my bathroom floor or my kitchen floor, but I'm just not really happy with it.

We feel like we're spending a lot of money all the time on this So we've actually invested now in a regular steam mop, and, actually, we love it. We're really happy with the steam mop. Again, we vacuum first and then we steam mop. It dries really quickly. You don't have to wait. And again, there's no refills to purchase and you can wash everything in the washing machine so you're not contributing to landfills and we're just much happier with that. And like I said, we've done Swiffer for a of years now and we're done
