Excellent When Used AS INTENDED
By zen118
I have five cats. This means a lot of cat litter, cat food, and cat hair on the vinyl floor in my utility room. The Swiffer Sweeper Vac is perfect for quickly and easily picking up all of the above.

It is light-weight, and does not scratch the floors. No dust pan and brush needed. The flexible sweeping head swivels easily to reach into corners and under cabinets with no problem.

Important to keep in mind:

In the user manual that comes with the product, it states you MUST charge the battery for a full 24 hours before first use.

It states the vac will run for about 10 - 12 minutes on one charge, then need to be charged for 16 hours.

It states the Sweeper&Vac operates best if used until fully discharged before charging again.

It is intended for dry pick up only, not liquids.

The dirt container is small. I just checked, and one 8-oz measuring cup of dry cat litter more than fills it. I'd say 4 - 6 oz is more like it.

It does NOT work well on carpet.

The manual suggests storing the Sweeper Vac near an outlet where it is convenient to charge every time.

If you will not be happy with these limitations, you will not be happy with this product!

The floor in my utility room is small, about 6' X 10'.

If you have a very large house, or many rooms with hardwood, tile, or vinyl floors, you may not be happy with the Sweeper Vac, as many other reviews have stated. It simply isn't intended to run for long periods of time on one charge. I'd suggest getting some other floor cleaning appliance.

If you want something for quick dry-pick-up, with no stooping or bending to use dust pan and brush, the Swiffer Sweeper Vac may be just the thing.

The dirt container does pull off very easily to empty, and snaps easily back into place. The filter is very easy to remove and snap back into place.

Some other use r reviews have stated that the Sweeper Vac does not pick up solid pieces of cat food, only crumbs. I do NOT understand this. Mine picks up both whole pieces of dry cat food AND crumbs. It picks up lint, cat litter and dust. It gets all the cat hair and "dust bunnies" with no problem. That's all I wanted or expected it to do, and it does all of those things quickly and easily.

Replacement filters are available at Target, and at several sites online. Two cloths are included in the Starter Kit. The Swiffer cloths are available at grocery stores, discount stores, and online. Target and Walmart both carry them.

I think if used as intended this is an excellent floor cleaner. I'm very happy with mine.

loved it initially. now...not so much
By E. Orchard
i thought this was going to be the perfect solution for the daily dust that accumulates on my hardwood floors. initially, i was impressed. the swiffer seemed to pick up a lot of the dust. however, i was bothered by the plastic "vacuum" part, as it sometimes can scratch the floor if you're not careful. as another member wrote, it would have helpful if they would have put some rubber or something over the plastic vacuum part.

as the months passed, i found that the vacuum didn't seem to pick up as much as it used to. i do clean the filter regularly (which is a dusty mess each time you do it), so i don't know what's going on. frankly, the vacuum just isn't strong enough for what i need it to do anymore. i've reverted back to my regular "super-strength" vacuum to get the job done.

pros:

* lightweight

* easy to use

* works great for very light jobs

* small and easy to store

cons:

* vacuum no t as strong as i'd like - more powerful motor would be great.

* plastic vacuum part in front can scratch floors if you're not careful

* cleaning the filter can be messy and can require you to swiffer the floor right after cleaning the filter!

Better than a broom, but not as good as I'd hoped
By Digigirl
I'd like to give 3 and a half stars, but since I don't have the option, I put 3. This product isn't bad - it is a good way to give a quick touch up on our tile floors. It's definitely less work than a broom, but is not quite as effective as I had hoped. We have a fairly large tiled area, and with 3 people (including 1 teenager) and 3 cats, there's a lot of dust, hair and crumbs on the floor. The sweeper did okay with the dust and hair, but the vacuum is only so-so on what it picks up. It would not pick up kitty kibble crumbs, for instance. A whole piece of cereal will not get vacuumed up, while a crushed piece of cereal probably will. The key to this product is to use it often - if the floor gets too dirty, it's too much for this product to handle. But for quick every day maintenance, it beats getting out the broom for sure.
