We are looking to replace our Swifter Wet Jet for something more eco and budget friendly. The solution always leaves the floor slightly sticky and never seems quite clean, not to mention the cost of the pads/cleaner/etc.
Our budget doesn't allow for a steam cleaner right now, but we need a simple mopping solution as our 6 month old is about to start crawling everywhere. I have checked out the Libman Freedom Spray Mop, O Cedar Spray mop, and the Rubbermaid Reveal but all have complaints of the sprayer breaking.
So how do you ladies keep your floors clean? We need a solution soon, because our daughter isn't interested if our floors are clean enough to eat off of, she will just eat it anyway :-)

I have wood floors throughout my whole house.... And I have had the rubbermaid reveal mop for a year now and LOVE IT ( no problems what so ever)!! I just use my "maid naturally" cleaner that I buy by the gallon from our natural food co-op. I love this cleaner because I don't have to worry about it being harmful to my LO even when he is following me everywhere when I am using it!https://www.maidnaturally.com/all_purpose_cleaner.php
I use a regular ol' microfiber mop on our wood floors. I get it damp with hot water/vinegar and run it all over the floors. It gets the floor clean without soaking the wood and it dries quickly.
I mop the tile in the upstairs bathroom and downstairs with hot water/vinegar.
I have a shark steam mop but it's BROKEN. I'm not bitter.
I wish I could afford a steam cleaner too. Maybe you can ask one for the next gift giving holiday? I like Sound Earth products (non-toxic and socially conscious small business) and vinegar for my cleaning.
We just moved into our house earlier this year and the floors in the main living areas are gross. Old linoleum and carpet in two rooms that just won;t get any cleaner no matter what we try. I'm hoping to be able to afford some sort of new floors before baby can crawl.
