It’s not often that a busy mum gets excited about mopping, but after Lindsay Abbott tried out the latest innovation from Vileda, she was hooked!

When Mouths of Mums caught up with Lindsay for a chat, she couldn’t wait to get back to cleaning her floors.

“I’m gonna go mop now before we’ve got visitors tonight! No joke! I want them to smell my house all nice and clean. I love it!”

New to Australia, Vileda PACS Floor Cleaning Tablets are a revelation. They’re a conveniently pre-portioned floor cleaning capsule, and can be used with any mop and bucket – although they’re the perfect partner for the Vileda Easy Wring & Clean and Rinse Clean mops​.

The tablets are a fabulous alternative to liquid floor cleaners, and for families and pet owners they’re a breath of fresh air because they’re packed with the deep cleaning power of enzymes.

“So ordinarily, I’d use either, like, just a floor cleaner from Woolies, or bleach, which is, you know, a bit touchy, and I really wanted to get off those harsh chemicals. And also, I just found a lot of floor cleaners. They sud up too much, too bubbly, so they leave kind of like a slippery film on the tiles. So yes, I think I may have found a solution to that!”

Using Vileda PACS Floor Cleaning Tablets is as easy as dropping one tablet into six litres of water, letting it dissolve (the fizzing is super satisfying!) and then mopping the floors as usual.

“It’s a different approach of, you know, popping in your bucket, in it, you know, it does fizz up, and it does have a bit of, you know, a little bubble, but just enough to just clean the floors, and then it smells amazing.”

“It didn’t have that residue, and the house, the entire house, smelled fresh. It smelt and felt clean, you know. So, I’m impressed. It’s a great idea.”

The handy tablets, which are available in Lavender and Spring Fresh fragrance, are made of 97% naturally derived ingredients, yet they’re powerful enough to cut through dirt and grime.

“I get a lot of grime, especially my kitchen area, you know, cooking kids are helping, making their Milos at night, and Milo on the floor, you know. And so, yeah, the kitchen Excellent. Like, really impressed. So, yeah, they’re onto a good thing.”

“It’s like that real nice satisfaction, or feeling of just, ‘Yes, this house is clean’. You can smell the cleanness.”

Lindsay says after using the product for a couple of weeks, three times a week on her white tiled floors, she’s a convert.

“I’m always skeptical when I use a new product, so put it to the test. And, yeah, pretty happy it works.”

With no ammonia, no bleach, and no parabens, Vileda PACS are safe for hardwood floors, luxury vinyl tile, in any finish, as well as ceramic and porcelain tile.

“That’s important, because I’m trying to get off that sort of harsh chemical sort of deal. And use something a bit more natural and a bit more, you know, kinder to the kids if they’re walking around with, you know, bare feet in the house. So, I’m pretty happy with that, too. So it smells natural, it smells better than that chemical scent, you know, when you’re using other floor cleaners or bleach, this is great. Smells good.”

Vileda PACS are available in a 10 pack RRP $13.99 or 24 pack $29.99 RRP, exclusively from Bunnings.

“The good thing is, like, they’re easy to store, so I don’t have these big, you know, floor cleaners packed in my tiny little space. I’d buy them again. I think they’re great. It’s a great idea. And I’d recommend to a friend.”

  • I use the Vileda mop and a supermarket eco friendly floor cleaner with a splash of disinfectant. There always seems to be a smear left on the floor. Looking forward to trying these.

  • Tiffany’s certainly entitled to her opinion, but we need to make sure we remember we all have such different circumstances – the ways we cope, finances, kids needs, support from family and partner.
    Wondering if comments like hers would make some SAHMs feel pretty crappy which I don’t like, especially if they’re not coping with the challenges and isolation of being a SAHM.
