I'm ordering it.  I always use a microfiber mop ( one of Don Aslett's), but this looks much easier.....and probably just as thorough, if not more so.  I have pre-finished hardwood floors throughout much of my house.  I've pretty much never use anything other than water and microfiber. On rare occasion, I'll use Bona.

There's a thread about this in the Today's Special Value forum.

I"ve been reading a lot from posters about the TSV cleaning floors, but how about windows?  I have sooooo many windows and many of them pretty large.  We moved to GA 2 years ago and everytime I clean the windows they come out horrible, windows too.  I'm not new to cleaning windows, been doing it for 20 plus years but they just keep coming out horrible.

Try Dawn dishwashing soap.  When our window washers clean ours at work that is what they use so I tried it at home.  It works great for windows and mirrors.  I mix up a bucket of the soapy water ( not too much suds ) and go around my house.  It's amazing how much clearer the mirrors are, and it never streaks.

For cleaning windows, I found nothing can beat Invisible Glass.  Love that stuff....for glass and for mirrors.  Great product!  What I plan on doing on the outside of my slider is to use the new mop for the initial cleaning, probably with just plain water, or water and vinegar, and then Invisible Glass for the fine tuning.

I'm obviously missing something with this mop....are you supposed to spray or wet the floor before using this mop? Or is it used dry? Sorry, but the only thing I saw in a video of this was a couple of light spritzes of something on the mop heads before it was used. I know that wouldn't last long on a small or medium sized floor. I watched the video with Jill and the vendor, but didn't get much out of it except for the "fabulous" colors and spraying the microfiber pads once with something.

@jannabelle1   I agree, a few details were glossed over or not mentioned.  I wondered what happens to the dirt after you make a pass.  Keep cleaning with dirty brushes thus redistributing the dirt?  Maybe you're supposed to stop and rinse the brushes after each pass?  I like my Bissell floor scrubbing machine that removes the dirty water.

@Kachina624- agree - a few important details were missed. It's all well and good to show a few feet of different floor material and cleaning them with a few squirts of something, but please give a few more details. I think I'll stay with my wet Swiffer....at least I know I'm spraying a cleaning agent on the floor.
