 I Use a Microfiber Cloth Instead and it Works SUPER!! Apr 23, 2011
By T
I love the extra large Swiffer Max - it covers so much more floor so much faster. Here's an idea I hope will work for you and save you money:
A couple of years ago I discovered I can easily attach a microfiber cloth (you can get them on Amazon) to the Swiffer, then I dampen it with a little hot water and vinegar and go to town cleaning my floor. If the cloth isn't too dirty after a few days of floor washings I just flip it over and use the other side. Then it goes into the washing machine and dryer and the whole process starts over again.
To make my kitchen smell nice I take a fresh microfiber cloth and dampen it with water and sprinkle several drops of an essential oil such as peppermint in the morning to wake everyone up:-) or lavender at night (for relaxation). Essential oils are also sold on Amazon. I hope these tips are useful to someone.

 Not crazy about using 2 cloths Dec 28, 2006
By kat135

Almost my entire house is tile, so I wanted to try this larger size. Putting 2 of the wet swiffers on is awkward, and they don't stay on as well as they do the regular sized Swiffer. But just as with the regular sized Swiffer, it does do a nice job of getting into corners and picking up the dirt. I have seen the dry max cloths for sale, but not the wet...I'm wondering why they would make such a product and not make cloths to fit????

Need to buy the x-large dry cloths from Amazon.com Dec 29, 2007
By Suzanne
I would have given this product a 4 star rating if I could find the x-large dry cloth in the regular stores. At least amazon carries them, and I can get even more of a savings going with the subscribe and save. I believe I'm going to do that, and have them delivered every 2 months. There will only be 12 days I would have to either not sweep my floors or reuse the cloth. With my floors, I'm able to usually reuse the cloth at least once.
It does what I want it to do, and replaces the large regular broom in my house. It will not pick up large derbs. I use it as a broom to make a small pile, and use a good dust pan with a small brush to pick up what is left over. To me it is easier than using a large broom and dustpan. I only have to sweep once instead of twice.
It is excellent for getting the dirt you don't think is there off the floor. It is excellent for large areas, and I get done quicker. So far, I haven't had any problems getting it around chair legs. If you have small spaces to manover the swiffer in, then you will want to go with the original swiffer sweeper.
If you do buy this product, plan on buying the dry cloths from Amazon.
I did use the wet cloth, but didn't like the wet cloths. I got the chemicals all over my hands when I went to put it on. I liked the swiffer wet jet much, much better. With the wet jet, the pads are dry. They stick on with velcro, so it only takes two seconds to stick them on. You can spray the cleaner as needed. Much more efficient than the wet cloth for the swiffer sweeper.

 Good coverage Mar 24, 2008

My only problem with the X-large Swiffer Sweeper is that in order to use the wet cloths, you must use TWO. This makes it a little expensive just to go over a floor for a quick wet mop. Too bad they don't make the wet mop in the XL size. Also, the XL dry cloths are nearly impossible to find in stores. Thank heaven for Amazon.

 Misleading packaging! Don't buy!! Jun 07, 2007
By Chef Mom B
They make you think you're getting two refills, but they fail to mention that it takes two wet cloths to mop once. The wet cloths have a scrubbing strip, and you're supposed to be able to just "flip to scrub," but when you flip, the mop just flips right back (i.e. you can't scrub at all!). Plus, I can't find the refills for the dry cloths in the Max size in stores, so you have to use two of the regular ones for that too!
The dry cloths do work nice, and really do pick up hair and small crumbs, but not larger particles. So I found myself having to vacuum up the pile of dirt that it leaves behind--which kind of defeats the purpose.
The wet cloths didn't clean very well and seemed to leave a film on my floor.
I contacted the company about my complaints, but they weren't helpful at all. I wanted a refund!
I'm not a happy customer!!
