Swiffer Sweeper+Vac Starter Kit

you don't have to buy new filters, just use the housekeeper equipment from your regular vacuum to clean the filter; i use the crevice tool.

i have had my swiffer sweeper for over a year now with no problems. since the charge does not last long (i get maybe 10 to 15 minutes) in order to finish all my floors, i leave the swiffer turned off, flip up the sweeper head and move all the dirt into one place and then sweep up the dirt and go around the baseboards and do the same for the rest of the rooms.

so, why buy this when it would be cheaper to buy the plain swiffer sweeper, the one without the vacuum? let me just say every day dry kitchen spills; coffee grinds, the dog knocked over the garbage, the kids crushed oyster crackers all over the floor, no dust pan. by the way, this is really good for broken light bulbs and glass on the kitchen floor; when i used a regular broom there would still be glass slivers in the floor weeks later. it only takes a couple of minutes to clean up the above mess.

i might get that shamwow and cut it to fit my swiffer vacuum and wet jet, that would save some money since the shamwow can be tossed in the washer.

i would have given this a five star if the charge lasted longer and
they sold reusable cloths for this. if my swiffer breaks, i will get another one.

This is lightweight and very easy to use, much handier than our full size, corded vac for use on our tiled kitchen floor. Some complain that over time the rechargable battery loses power. According to the instructions, it is best to run the vac for ten or twelve minutes until the power runs down completely before recharging. It only takes a few minutes to do our kitchen floor and utility room, so I set the vac aside without charging it. Then I use it again and again until it runs out of power. Then I connect it to the recharger. I hope this procedure will extend the life of the battery. (I order the replacable pads through Amazon.)

love it love it love it... this Swiffer sweeper vac is amazing. it has great suction, picks up most anything, and the swiffer pad picks up the rest. It give bare floor cleaning a pure simplicity. the only downside is that the vac fills up so quickly. however, this is only because it works so well. You can also pick up the vac filter refills. I think that that is great. If you are a former dust buster user, you know what i mean. YOU always want to replace them, but never quite know where to buy the new filters. With the Swiffer Sweeper vac, you can pick them up at your usual grocery or discount store. THREE CHEERS FOR SWIFFER SWEEPER VAC. Once you use it you will never want to use and thing else. I actually carry around the Swiffer sweeper vac and Swiffer wet jet at the same time and get my bare floors done in a jiffy. This is a Must buy item..

The sweeper vac is the best thing for people with hardwood/tile etc and who own animals. It's cordless, so it's convenient, and the swiffer pads can hold a lot of dirt on their own.
However.
1. The canister is small. Halfway through the house I have to empty it.
2. Like most rechargable things, the batteries WILL DIE. We got a year-and-a-half of use out of our old one before it started dying in the middle of cleaning. It takes a while to recharge, as well.
3. I haven't been able to clean the filter well or find filter replacements.
4. It won't pick up some things, and doesn't work well in corners. (I was hoping it'd pick up the fuzz from my dogs' toys.)
If Swiffer would address these concerns and produce a new model, it would be PERFECT. Even with its flaws, it's a great product. It's perfect for when unexpected company arrive; you just zip around, and it looks like you spent an hour vaccuuming. It's a must-have for anyone with wood, vinyl, laminate, or tile.
