A replacement head for a vacuum device includes a plastic tray, a filter and a pad. The plastic tray includes a dust chamber and a front guard portion. An opening is provided that allows air, dust and debris to be drawn into the dust chamber during use. The front guard portion preferably has at least a portion that has a triangular cross-sectional shape and defines an interior space. The pad is attached to the lower side of the plastic tray and is in contact with the floor during cleaning. The filter is connected to the plastic tray such that the filter substantially covers a top opening in the dust chamber.
