The full review
Why I switched from a Swiffer
My Swiffer Wetjet was quietly destroying my hardwood, the finish started looking hazy in spots, especially near the kitchen. It turns out the moisture from those wet pads can damage the finish over time, which I didn't know until it was already dull.
I switched to the Bona spray mop for At its current price. The spray is made for hardwood and the microfiber pad is reusable, so I just toss it in the wash instead of buying cartridges every week. Floors actually look shiny again.
What I liked
- Formula made for sealed hardwood
- Reusable, washable microfiber pad
- No more cartridge refills
- Floors look shiny, not hazy
What to know
- Not a deep-scrub tool
- Refill spray eventually runs out
- Pad needs washing between uses
- Won't fix already-damaged finish
Common questions
Is it safe for engineered hardwood?
Yes, it's formulated for sealed/engineered hardwood, unlike wet-pad mops that can dull the finish over time.
Do you have to buy refill pads?
No, the microfiber pad is reusable and machine-washable.
