Lee & Morty Kaufman: Swiffer’s “Golden Couple” We Love to Love
In July 2013, we were introduced to a lovable, young-at-heart, 90-year-old couple named Lee and Morty Kaufman. The Kaufman’s have demonstrated that as we get older, cleaning the home becomes more than just a chore—it’s a full-blown hassle. And using old-fashion, heavy cleaning tools and materials just doesn’t cut it or make it any easier.
America has officially fallen in love with the Kaufman’s, thanks to P&G who cast them in a series of commercials that aired on television to demonstrate the full “Swiffer effect.” We all know that cleaning is not only tough, but also tough on the body. P&G gave the Kaufman’s a box full of Swiffer products to simplify Lee’s cleaning routine—and it did just that. As a matter of fact, it worked so well that they built an entire campaign around the Kaufman’s, their love, and the “Swiffer Effect.”
