With all of the different ones on the market which is your favorite????

I know you are saying other??? what the heck is other???
I had this friend in high school and they would get down on their hands and knees and scrub the floor with a bucket of cleaner and scrub towel. Their floor was super clean!!

My Mother always used a deck type mop and filled the sink with hot water and mopped the floor.

Just wondering what others like~

Me too. Swiffer all the way. Not the wet jet, just the kind where you place a wet pad on the regular swiffer wand and mop away. No muss, no fuss. Just the way I like it! :D

It all depends on how messy the floor is. If I've neglected the floor, which I am embarrased to admit to quite often, I use the sponge type mop first, then go back over it with my swiffer stick and a hand knit rag. Yeah, I knit my own "Swiffer" cloths, lol!

BTW, if you don't like spending the $$ on the disposable swiffer cloths, and you don't knit, you can cut absorbent cotton fleece or felt to fit the swiffer. It works too... and you can toss them in the washer to re-use.

Wow! That is a REALLY cool idea KW. I'm definitely gonna try that one! Well, they'll be crocheted 'cause I don't knit.

I love and use the Swiffer Mop! It is so quick and easy and gets the job done.

I use a sponge mop with the throwaway towels for my laminate floor. Paper towels for quick cleanups

I use swiffer type, too. (Although my husband prefers the deck type) I am actually out of the wet pads right now, so I REALLY appreciate this tip! I have tons of felt, though. :)

Thanks for the tip!
