![]() ![]() Plus, it takes longer to clean up after using, making the Swiffer WetJet the winner once again when it comes to convenience. While the design is unique and effective, the product itself isn’t top-quality and will likely break with frequent use. O-Cedar EasyWring Spin Mop & Bucket System: The O-Cedar Microfiber Spin Mop is another popular product I tested that more closely resembles a traditional mop and bucket. With the WetJet, you can apply as much or as little solution as you need, and it’s quicker and easier to attach and remove the cleaning pads. When comparing these two Swiffer products side-by-side, the WetJet is miles ahead of the Sweeper in terms of mopping performance. They frequently run out of cleaning solution long before you finish mopping, and sometimes they even dry out in the pack. Swiffer Sweeper Wet: I’ve had a Swiffer Sweeper for as long as I can remember, and while its dry pads are unbeatable for picking up dust and hair, the wet pads leave something to be desired. The Spruce / Camryn Rabideau Competition: Swiffer wins in terms of convenience The cleaning solution can be stored right on the mop, so all that’s left to do is put the WetJet back into storage. Simply pull off the dirty pad-unfortunately, you do have to touch it, but I didn’t find it to be that bad-and throw it away.

In particular, when I was loading the batteries, I noticed that the compartment is made of thin plastic-one wrong move and you could easily break it. ![]() My only complaint is the materials that make up the WetJet feel somewhat flimsy in places.

The main living area has sealed hardwood throughout, and there were more than a few splotches and stains, many of which were from salty slush that got tracked in during the winter, marring the pretty finish.
