QUESTION: I DON;T LIKE CHEMICALS OR THEIR SMELLS. WILL THIS WORK FINE ON TILE/LAMINATE IF I JUST USE THE DRY PADS? I HAVE A CAT, DOG, AND A BABY.
• The dry ones work fine on tile. I use the wet ones to wash the the bathroom and kitchen floors and then use the dry ones in between washes.
• I have only used this on wood flooring and it works fine, albeit a bit smaller than I expected. If you get one and you have a lot of floors to clean, get the bigger size.
• don't know about dry pads, I didn't like this mop because its wet pads never cleaned anything, they were useless
• Dry pads won't clean the floors. Using dry pads is just like dusting them. You'll still have baby and animal germs all over the place.
• Yes, you can use without chems that's what I do now, also when the floors get sticky kid stuff I use "Simply Green" non toxic and it's just a natural cleaner chk it out.

QUESTION: 2 QUESTIONS. IS THIS DURABLE? IS THIS PORTABLE? IE. CAN YOU COLLAPSE THE BOOM STICK TO MAKE IT EASIER TO TRANSPORT?
• Yes! It is durable and can be easily taken apart into 4 pieces for transport.
• Yes, and Yes, But if you are intending to do a pretty good size room then you might invest in another one or go for the bigger size.

QUESTION: DOES THE HANDLE COME IN THIS STARTER KIT? AND, DO THE CLOTHS ATTACH WITH VELCRO?
• yes the handle comes in the kit...No - the cloths do not attach with velcro they attach with four holes.
• Yes the handle does come in the starter kit but the cloths do not have Velcro, they attach as they do on the smaller Swifter.
• Yes, the handle comes in the starter kit but, the cloths do not attach with Velcro. The cloths fold over the sweeper just like the smaller swiffer sweepers and push into the underside of the sweeper head. It uses disposal cloths.Hope this helps. I do love mine for my hardwood and ceramic floors...
• Yes, the handle is part of the starter kit; no there is no velcro, the cloths punch down in holes in the head of the mop. the holes are tight and the cloths stay intact during mopping process. I love my swiffer mop. I hope this helps.

QUESTION: CAN THE HANDLE EXTEND
• Nope. It's a fixed length. But it does pivot at the base.
• it just snap into place and that it.
• The handle on mine extends to the normal broom length, it is fine.
• I don't think so.
• Hi, It's the regular extension of a Swifter. So up to your stomach/chest. I hope this helps

QUESTION: WOULD THIS WORK WELL ON LAMINATE FLOORING?
• supposed to. I haven't tried it on laminate , only on vinyl flooring and it did nothing
• I believe it will, should work on any surface without a carpet
• I think it would work on any smooth floor. tried on my kitchen tiles and didn't work because of the grout. use on my wood floors and love it.
• I have laminate and It works great . It saves time and it's easy to use
• I don't know as I have never had laminate flooring. I would check with a flooring company and ask them a generalize question as to what cleaning material would work best.
• waste of money
• Yes, It will work on the lams If you got a lot of floor to dust then purchase the next size up of this mop.

QUESTION: WHAT ARE THE DIMENSIONS OF THE MOP HEAD?
• Its no more than the size of a 12" ruler, if your floor's are spacious then go for the bigger one that they sell. That's what I should've done the very first time when I purchased the regular size Swiffer.
• 4.9 x 3 x 12.3

QUESTION: IS THIS ALL YOU NEED TO CLEAN A LAMINATE FLOOR?
• Sorry -- I have tile floors and know nothing about cleaning laminate.
• I think so. You get the sweeper cloths and 3 wet mops
• Yes if it's a small area. I have a lot of hardwood flooring, so I use it is certain areas everyday. For a big cleanup, I use a bigger micro mop.
• I clean all my floors with tile and my wood floors also
• It's all we are using on our faux wood look linoleum, after trying multiple mops & brooms. We use the dry & wet & it works better than anything we've ever had.

QUESTION: DOES THE POLE FOR THIS BREAK INTO SMALLER PIECES?
• Yes it does makes for easy storage or packing if you have to move
• Yes it breaks down. Very good product
• Yes
• yes , the pole comes in two pieces when you purchase it.

QUESTION: DOES IT INCLUDE THE MOP?
• I think the answer is yes. The flat head with the wet wipes functions like a mop. But it doesn't have a traditional stringy mop head, if that's what you are looking for.
• Yes it includes the mop. But if you're expecting the Swiffer WetJet (with the squirting gun), it's not that. It's just a stick with the flat end where you attach the wet cloths (or dry cloths).
• It includes dry clothes for sweeping and a moistened cloth for mopping

• Yes they can be used.

QUESTION: IS IT ONE BIG SHEET OR DO YOU HAVE TO USE 2 SMALLER SHEETS
• You have to use 2 smaller sheets. I should have bought the smaller mop, since they don't manufacture wet sheets for the X-large mop. It was a waste of money.
• they use smaller sheets it works good for me.
• I use one big sheet. They are available on Amazon, makes it real easy. I would not go to the trouble of trying to get two smaller sheets on the X-large Swiffer Sweeper.,
• Just one big sheet

QUESTION: IS THIS SAFE TO USE WITH PETS AND BABIES? I HEARD IT USES ANTIFREEZE

#Swiffer_Sweeper_Review
QUESTION: DO ANY CLOTHS COME WITH THE STARTER KIT OR IS IT JUST THE XL MOP BY ITSELF?
• I believe it comes with two cloths
• Yes, a couple of wet ones and a dry one.
• There is usually one wet cloth and I believe 3 dry, you can order boxes of the large clot
• My starter kit came with cloths.
• They come with a very minimum starter set. I think 2 each of wet and dry cloths - good for one use.
• It comes with 4 dry cloths and 2 wet cloths.

QUESTION: CAN THIS KILL BATERIA IN KITCHEN FLOR FROM PUOTRY AND BEEF?
• No! I would use something stronger for that.
• No.
#Swiffer_Sweeper
QUESTION: WILL ONE OF THESE MOP UP LIQUID?
• yes it mops up liquid, not made for big spills you may have to change cloth
• While I haven't tried to mop up water on purpose with the swiffer cloths, I have accidentally swept over liquids. The cloths did absorb it but I doubt they'd do a good job with large amounts of liquid. I hope this helps.
• No. It doesn't mop up liquid. I love it for cleaning my wood floor but for wet cleaning you need a mop.
