I just recently joined Smiley360, a great website where they send you a product for free to try out, and then I share my honest thoughts on said product. I always love a great #freesamp! I was super excited when I was selected to try out the New Bona Hardwood Floor Wet Cleaning Pads. With the exception of our kitchen (tile) and playroom (carpet) our house has hardwood floors throughout! I love my hardwood floors!
Unfortunately I did not have the actual mop that fits the Bona Cleaning Pad - however, I did improvise, and used the mop that we had here. I think that worked just fine (mine is a little smaller, so I couldn't use the entire width of the Bona Pad. I wanted to try out the pads first to make sure it's something I would continue to use before spending $$ on buying the Bona mop.
I will say I wasn't completely sold on this pad. I felt like the pads weren't that wet. I had to use 2 pads in every room, by the time I got 1/2 way through the room it was like I was mopping with a dry pad. I also did notice that it left a couple of streaks in some spots. (Hardwood floors are very hard to capture a good picture of!)
We mop our floors every 3rd weekend, so it's a pretty regular schedule. I will say that the pads were quite dirty after I replaced them - so I know it did it's job on cleaning the floor!
I keep going back and forth on how I feel about a non-scented pad. I like the satisfaction of the smell of a clean house, that lemony or citrus scent. I can sit back and 'smell' all the hardwork I just completed. But at the same time, I know that those artificial scents can be harmful to inhale, as well as harmful for the environment. I do think I'll have to side with my environmentally friendly part of me, and get over the fact that it is scent free!
Overall, I'd probably give these pads a 3 out of 5 stars.
I've never heard of Bona products before. But am noticing them when I'm shopping! Probably because it's a brand I'm now familiar with! I would be interested in trying out another one of their products, maybe the Hardwood Floor Polish.
