I was skeptical at first with the swiffer. Since I'm asthmatic I'm not a fan of sweeping (who is?). It was easy to assemble, so I got to work..... love this product. Was expecting dust to settle in the air afterwards. Nothing. No asthma attack, and my place was cleaner. The only thing I didn't like was that the wet cloth has a scent to it, but just wiped up after with a paper towel. Might never use a broom again!
