Swiffer Wet Jet All-In-One Power Mop Starter Kit
From SwifferCustomer Reviews
buy the clorox readi mop instead
as i'm sure everyone else has stated; unless you're creative** you must use only swiffer wet jet solution and cleaning pads with this one.
the next problem comes when i install the wetjet cleaner bottle and it leaks.
if do not remove it promptly after every mopping session the entire bottle will dispense itself onto my floor in a very nice puddle.
considering that i must use the fairly expensive WetJet cleaning solution i have wasted far more money than this INconvenient mop is worth.
**creative endeavors:
fashion your own washable cleaning "diaper" out of and old rag wrapped with a microfiber dust cloth cut and sewn to fit the mop head - the microfiber attaches itself to the velcro that's already there. ;)
you can pop the top off the cleaning solution by running it under hot water for a few minutes which allows you to then refill with your own favorite mopping solution.
If you like this wetjet...be prepared to buy a new one every 6 months
This product is pretty good for a quick cleanup and I find that the pads actually remove a lot of dirt. However, this darn product keeps breaking in half (at the point where the handle connects to the rest of the pole). It is so annoying!
I have now bought a similar Mr. Clean mop which has a much sturdier pole since the spray is generated by trigger action not by battery power. Therefore, no wires need to run through the poles.
I wonder how many swiffer wetjets are lying around in garbage dumps with broken handles...what a waste! It is a shame because you can't even post a review at the swiffer wetjet web site.
Neither efficient nor cost effective
While not expensive to initially purchase, this system IS expensive in the long run. If you mop your floors regularly or have a lot of rooms to mop, you'll be constantly replacing pads and cleaner and batteries, none of which are cheap.
Additionally, this system does not clean my laminate floors well. It leaves them cloudy/hazy and they never look or feel 100% clean afterwards. When I go over with a damp paper towel where I just mopped, it always shows a fair amount of dirt. And looking at the pad when you remove it from the mop you can see why. The way it is designed, the most pressure is on the front edge of the mop. The center and back of the pad don't receive nearly as much pressure and pick up almost nothing.
In short, for small jobs and irregular cleaning, this mop will do. Otherwise, it is inefficient, expensive and ultimately frustrating.

Manufacturer’s Description
The Swiffer WetJet is an all-in-one, ready-to-use system that quickly and easily cleans even the dirtiest floors. The WetJet cleaning system is made up of three components: sweeper, triple-layer cleaning pads, and cleaning solution. The user merely runs the sweeper across the floor. Once the pre-diluted cleaning solution cuts through the dirt, the disposable pad will soak it up and trap it. Your floor will not only be clean in moments, but also dry. The sweeper is lightweight and easy to use, with a powered sprayer and flexible swivel head. The WetJet cleaning solution is available for both linoleum and wood floors, and each cartridge includes enough solution to clean at least eight large rooms.
