I was skeptical about the Swiffer wet mop. We have sealed hardwood floors and I usually hand mop with water. However, I recently injured my back and it just wasn't possible to get down on my hands and knees . Luckily the Swiffer wet mop helped me get the job done. I especially loved the scrubby strip on the front of the pad. With a little extra pressure, I was able to clean even the tough spots. The fresh scent was also nice without being overpowering. I have used these several times on our kitchen floor and it shows  no sign of icky residue that I have gotten in the past with other cleaners. Swiffer made my job of cleaning the floors quick and easy!
