Swiffer Duster® Review

     Swiffer is a great name for a cleaning product that really is a swift cleaner!  I love my swiffer duster.  I put the pad on the bottom and tuck it into the holes on the top of the swiffer and away I go.  I quickly dust my hardwood floors and my kitchen floor and even my bathroom floor.  I can also use this item up in the corners of the wall where little cobwebs tend to be.  It is quick and easy to do.  My pomeranians leave hair all over my house, and my swiffer duster quickly cleans it right up! 

   The Swiffer unit can be purchased fairly inexpensively.  I have seen it on sale for 7.99 and it comes with 5 pads.  Extra pads must be purchased separately.  In my house, with my two pomeranians we purchase a box of 12 pads every three weeks for my house.  I will tell you a secret though.  I have also taken my baby wipes (usually huggies are the thickest and largest) and washed them and when they were dry I was able to reuse them as swiffer cloths! (I used wet baby wipes a few times too when I needed more than a dry cloth)

  Purchasing the pads is expensive.  I have tried washing them and they tend to fall apart. I get annoyed that I have to keep buying more of them.  While Swiffer is a great item, it is a continual cost if you get used to using it and that for me is frustrating.  I try to improvise with the little tool.

The pole on the duster is flimsy, so be careful if you have children who like to play with your brooms and mops!  My sons have broken two swiffers already!

I cannot give this item five stars because it does get expensive purchasing pads over and over again.
