Swiffer Users Beware: Bona Mopping Up The Competition

GoVacuum Hardwood Floor Mop Comparison: Bona Versus Swiffer. For years, Swiffer® has had a stranglehold on the hardwood floor-cleaning market. Its Wet Jet® mopping system was a virtual monopoly, with no competitor up to the task of dethroning the supposed king of clean. That was until the release of Bona’s Hardwood Spray Mop. After conducting an extensive review of the Bona product in a side-by-side comparison with its competition, the Swiffer, GoVacuum was blown away by the results. Not only did the Bona mop prove superior to the WetJet, but even more surprisingly, it wasn’t even close. Some highlights of the findings: *Bona’s state-of-the-art microfiber pad is reusable up an astounding 250 times – Replacing Swiffers disposable pads for the same amount of use would cost an additional 0 *Bona’s mist spray does just that, emitting a fine mist up to 3 feet out -By comparison, Swiffer’s spray creates puddles that can be damaging to hardwood floors *Bona’s mop is six inches wider than the Swiffer WetJet, making for more efficient use and less work for the consumer * The Bona mop also comes with a bigger solution tank than Swiffer’s (28 oz. vs. 16 oz.), and unlike its competitor, doesn’t require batteries to operate. In retrospect, we really shouldn’t have been surprised by the results of the trial. Bona has been an industry leader in hardwood floor care for over a century, so the release of a yet another top-of-the-line product is just more of the same from this company

  1. why is this supposed ‘expert’ mopping in the wrong direction against the grain? bad for wood floor. this is not a review, it’s a commercial

  2. @AllMyEggsInOneBasket Hi There. You really should not run the Bona pads through the dryer, they are meant to be air dried, not machine dried. I don’t think that you can compare the cost of a running a single washing machine cycle, to the overall cost of a disposable pad. If you’re taking into account the costs to the environment especially, the pad by swiffer is much more damaging. Also, the Bona pad is 40% larger then Swiffer’s making it much more effective at cleaning large areas.

    @jairodrigue my thoughts too

    Bona makes a good mop…the unit he shows is great IF you do not have small areas to get to. Swiffer is also good…they have different types of solution available. The solution he was useing for this demo is NOT for wood floors. He mentioned the bona pad is washable, TRUE. But, when factoring the cost of running them through the washer and dryer, Swiffer toss-aways are cheaper, and ready ito be used. I prefer the swiffer.

  5. These “User comments” are obvious B.S. If you want to disguise a commercial for a user review be a little more discrete

  6. I see someone failed basic math. 28oz at 9.99 is not more economical than 16oz at 5.00 plus I found 33.8oz of wetjet for 6.49. How durable does it need to be? if its not made of coardboard its fine. Plus he wasn’t using the wetjet solution for hardwood floors. I like govacuum videos but this is a fail

  7. @GoVacuums I just got this today and it got the job done alot better and faster than the wet jet. Thanks for the upload.

  8. it sounds like a guy with an english accent saing Boner HAHA

  9. @KellyGreen5555 Hi There, no the Bona does not use batteries to spray the solution, but instead uses a spring mechanism to spray the solution out. Just another “green” reason to go with the Bona Mop over the Swiffer.

  10. So the Bona does NOT take batteries?

  11. WetJet bottles are about $6 for 42 ounces (1.25L). You might want to check your math again.

  12. Im a hardwood flooring contractor and all I can add to this is Bona is the front runner in the hardwood finishing industry and would use nothing else. The Bona floor cleaning system is excellent and I recommend it to my customers. The swiffer is JUNK……my wife had one she bought and it fell appart in a week (I told her so) The best thing about the swiffer is their funny commercials and nothing else.
    “Baby come back”……….

  13. “Ok, the refills: you get 28oz bottle for $9.99… for the swiffer it’s about $5 for a bottle and its about 16 oz… so you do get a lot more for your money with the bona…”

    I’m sorry, but it doesn’t help when you make statements like that which are easily disputed with a little math
    Bona: 28oz for $9.99 = 36 cents per ounce
    Swiffer:16oz for $5 = 31 cents per ounce.

    I am not defending the woefully flimsy swiffer here, but you make yourself look bad with a clearly untrue statement like this.

  14. watch my video about bona lol. Its really funny

  15. Yes, it sure can, in fact Bona has a specific formula for this product that is made especially for Stone, Tile, and Laminate, as well as a different formula made specifically for Hardwood floors. The Bona Mop works very well on tile flooring.

    taths exaclty wat i was thinking

  17. the only reason this has like, 4000 views is because we all need to grow up XDXD

  18. couldn’t the trigger be in a more comfortable position ? it looks like it may cause some cramping in the hands.on the other hand looks like a good improvement and also i think the combination of BONA and hardwood is hilarious!
