Yocada Sponge Mop Home Commercial Use Tile Floor Bathroom Garage Cleaning with Squeegee and Extendable Telescopic Long Handle 42-52 Inches Easily Dry Wringing

Believe it or not I spent quite a bit of time researching mops on Amazon before choosing this one. My motivation? Really grew to dislike buying mops at the grocery store that seem to last only a year or so before the plastic sponge holder breaks. I have been using sponge-head mops for years and was about to buy one of the newer pad-style mops when I came across this one. I was glad because I'm not really sure I'm on board with the pad-style mops. I've been using this for almost six months now. This mop fits the bill for many of the features I wanted: Quality materials - I'm a guy and this mop doesn't disappoint here. Feels quite sturdy and well-made. HINT - one thing I've learned is to change my use of bleach. I used to use a weak bleach solution on my linoleum floor because I found bleach allowed me to get a lot more mileage out of my sponges (I'm guessing because bleach killed bacteria that would otherwise grow in the damp sponge and break it down). What I forgot to consider is that dunking a mop into a bleach solution would eventually cause corrosion where the steel handle met the plastic sponge holder. At some point if the plastic holder didn't give out first, the handle would eventually break at that corroded point. This company rightly warns to avoid using bleach, but what I've done is switch to dish soap for the linoleum floor and I still hit the sponge with a weak bleach solution after each mopping session to extend the life of the sponge. I make sure to rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove the bleach residue from the sponge and plastic rollers that serve to squeeze excess water from the sponge. This way I kind of get the best of both worlds. Height-adjustable - I'm 6' 2" and it's really nice to be able to extend this thing out to the max so I'm not bent over at all during use. The grocery store mops (at least in my area) NEVER have this feature. Wringing mechanism - Again, quality materials here. Very easy to wring and no worries I'm going to break the plastic sponge holder using brute force like with the clamshell-style sponge mops I've used for years. Also, the handle for the wringer is located higher up on the mop handle so it's less awkward wringing the mop. Squeegee/brush attachment - I haven't used it much in practice and I actually keep it off the mop because I hang the it on a wall in a high traffic area and it sticks out too much with the attachment (but I would keep it on otherwise). For me, the squeegee in particular is a nice option to have. I had no problem assembling this and the instructions were fairly clear as I recall, but I'm also pretty handy and I could see some people having some trouble with assembly. Overall, I am really happy with this mop. I bought with 3 sponges and don't foresee needing any more for quite some time even with weekly use. The only thing I like a bit less about this mop is the sponges themselves are a more open-celled type than I typically used in the past. I have to wring the sponge more than once or it applies more water than I prefer. I think this is necessary because the roller-style wringing mechanism likely would not work as well with a denser sponge. My only other concern is how long I'll be able to get sponge refills because I think this mop is going to last for some years. That's a good problem to have in my book.

This is the best mop that we've ever used! It does a fantastic job on our kitchen tile floor. Unlike other mops the wringer removes nearly all the water from the sponge . The squeegee is by far the best feature -- when you are done mopping the floor is nearly dry, much better than any other mops. We love it!

I will buy again. Great for small jobs.

These sponges are pretty good. The quality makes them for long lasting.

It's difficult to find mop heads in most stores lately, so this was quite a find for me. The price was right, and the quality of the material is really good and stands up well to daily use. It doesn't leave streaks on the very light colored bathroom tiles at the bar where I am employed. The size is just right to get into tight spaces behind toilets and around walls. It's easy to put into place when I have to change the head. I'm grateful to have these available to me when I need them. Delivery is fast, too.

This is a good sturdy mop and I like the sponge head which feels like it will last a long time. The handle is adjustable and that works for just about anyone and any height. the biggest negative for me is that the mop will only go in one direction. You can not push it back and forth. For that reason I am giving it 3 stars. If it pushed and pulled I would have given 5 stars.

GREAT!

These work well. A little hard to insert into the mop.
