New Nilfisk Dryft 15" Orbital Micro Scrubber
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“We recently had the opportunity to view and operate the new Dryft floor scrubber, which is gaining attention for its compact and versatile design.
Its lightweight, ergonomic build allows for ease of use and maneuverability, particularly in tight or hard-to-reach spaces. The scrubber's powerful motor provides efficient cleaning performance, effectively tackling dirt and grime on various floor surfaces.
One of the standout features is its battery-operated system, which offers cordless convenience and flexibility. The scrubber is designed to be user-friendly, featuring intuitive controls that simplify the cleaning process.
This unit features a unique design that helps users easily access small spaces without leaving behind empty spots like some other scrubbers. Its innovative handle system allows for smooth maneuvering back and forth, just like a traditional mop!
The Dryft has a 1-hour and 15-minute runtime but will recharge in about an hour. The unit has a 15.4" scrub head and an oscillating scrub deck that can quickly move from one surface to another without any adjustments.
Some users may find that the battery life is limited for larger cleaning tasks, requiring frequent recharging. The water tank capacity may also be a consideration for those who need to cover extensive areas without interruption.
Overall, the Dryft is well suited for those looking for a portable and effective cleaning solution, particularly in smaller or more confined spaces.”
“I've purchased multiple times from Southeastern Equipment. I'm very pleased with their service, products, and quick delivery. I highly recommend them to others whenever they see our scrubbers.” — Kim S., Google review
Scrub is the new mop.
The Nilfisk Dryft is a stick-style micro scrubber for the floors a regular scrubber can't reach and a mop doesn't really clean: restrooms, breakrooms, elevator lobbies, corridors and the corners, edges and narrow gaps around fixtures and furniture.
Its 15.4 in orbital head scrubs at 4,200 oscillations per minute, a 16.9 in squeegee picks up the dirty water behind it, and the whole machine weighs 16.1 lb. A 25.2 V, 5 Ah lithium-ion battery runs it for up to 60 to 75 minutes per charge.
Includes:
- One 5 Ah lithium-ion battery
- Shelf charger
- Pad holder
Why it beats a mop
Mop and bucket vs. the Dryft
| Mop and bucket | Nilfisk Dryft | |
|---|---|---|
| Dirty water | A mop goes back into a bucket that gets dirtier with every dip, then back onto the floor. | Scrubs with clean solution and picks the dirty water up behind the head. Nilfisk says it removes bacteria instead of spreading it. |
| Wet floor | The floor stays wet until it air-dries. | Scrubs and dries in the same pass, so people can walk on it right away. |
| Corners and edges | A round mop head skips corners and baseboards. | Chamfered corners on the cleaning head reach into corners and along edges. |
| Under things | Hard to reach under stall partitions and furniture. | The head is under 2 in (50 mm) tall and fits under partitions and furniture. |
| Effort | Filling, carrying and wringing a bucket. | Weighs 16.1 lb, about the size of a stick vacuum. Nilfisk says almost no training is needed. |

Questions
Nilfisk Dryft: common questions
How long does a charge last?
Nilfisk rates the 5 Ah lithium-ion battery at up to 60 minutes on high vacuum and up to 75 minutes on low vacuum. A full charge takes 95 minutes, and it reaches 90% in about 60 minutes.
Can it run longer than one battery?
Yes. The battery is easy to change, so a spare 5 Ah battery lets you swap and keep going while the first one charges.
Will it replace our mops?
For small and congested hard-floor areas, that is what it is built for. It scrubs and picks up the dirty water in one pass, so the floor is dry when you finish and dirty water is not spread around the room.
How is an orbital head different from a rotary brush?
The Dryft head oscillates at 4,200 times per minute instead of spinning. With chamfered corners on the head, it cleans into corners and along edges, and you can work it in S-shaped passes across open floor.
Is it hard to learn?
Nilfisk says almost no training is needed. It has a three-button control panel and weighs 16.1 lb, about the size of a stick vacuum.
What floors does it work on?
Hard floors. Nilfisk offers squeegee blade kits for both smooth and uneven floors.
