I just bought this product over the w/e. We have wood flooring. Let me start off by saying we have 2 large dogs, a cat (all of which shed) and a parakeet (who constantly throws seed on the floor). I was using a dusting mop that the floor installers suggested I use. This did not get up all the dirt, dust, feathers, crumbs, seed and hair. So I bought a mini handheld vacuum thinking this would help better after the intial dust mop. Well this was "killing" my back the constant bending over. So I saw the Swifter Sweeper and decided to give it a try. I had a $10 off coupon for the starter kit. (Started out at $40). It was easy to assemble. Downside you had to let it charge for 18 hrs. I have only used it once but it will be used daily. Anyone with hardwood floors knows it is a daily chore keeping up with the dust/dirt. It was so easy to use. I just glided it across the floor the vacuum picks up the crums and bigger dust/fur and then the swifer picks up what the vacuum didn't catch. I will be using this product daily and so far am sold.
