Target’s Method products

I’m trying my best to make changes in our house that are better for the environment.  I bought a bunch of cleaning products from Target’s environmental brand, Method.  I chose Method mainly because I’m a Target junkie and because it was a line that was promoted on Oprah’s green show.  I’m especially happy with their detergent because it has no fragrances or dyes which is great for me since I have pretty sensitive skin.  Today we had our monthly interfaith devotional which meant that I needed to do the project that I detest the most…cleaning the floors.  I really don’t like to clean the floors so I usually try to pawn it off on Billy, but I was actually excited about it today because I bought Method’s mop system which is kind of like their answer to the Swiffer.  It’s really nice because you just squirt the cleaner directly on the floor and then mop it up with a mop that has a washable microfiber cloth at the end of it.  Unfortunately, it just wasn’t as functional as it needs to be.  It reminded me why I hate cleaning the floors.  I have porcelain tile floors (which I don’t suggest to anyone- if we ever redo our floors we will definitely go with bamboo) and the mop would only move in one direction, it would collapse when I would try to move it towards me.  It was SO frustrating.  I definitely recommend the all-purpose cleaner, detergents & dryer sheets and their cleaning wipes but unfortunately, not their mop.  If anyone has any suggestions on how to make cleaning the floors easier, besides a maid, PLEASE let me know!
