I just bought the Scotch Brite floor sweeper for forty bucks and I'm really enjoying it. It has rubber blades instead of bristles. I know restaurants like this because they can pick up french fries and straws and everything. Well, it does a much better job on cat litter than bristles. Even though I need another floor care product like a hole in my head I had to try this little guy out. It's got a very comfortable handle and top access transparent dirt traps. I really like it... and it's quieter than than the swivel sweeper. Has anyone heard of the new Scotch Brite floor sweeper yet or tried it out? What do you think of rubber bladed sweepers in general?

Are they those things you see demo'd at fairs etc. I think there was someone demo'ing them at Sears this past summer and people were handing over the money like crazy. Never tried one myself.

I have a few of those things made by huskee. I love them! I hate the traditional bissell sweeper. The blades are a great thing to have if you need a quick pick up on low carpeting. The office I work at have a dozen vacuums they bought from me and still use the bladded sweeper a lot in the middle of the week.
