TETHYSFlat Floor Mop and Bucket Set for Professional Home Floor Cleaning System with Aluminum Handle/2-Washable Microfiber Pads Perfect Home + Kitchen Cleaner for Hardwood, Laminate, Tiles, Vinyl

I use this mop every time I clean. The pads are washable, which is nice. The first time I washed and tried to use again, I had trouble with the mop bunching up as I slid into the dry part of the bucket. After I looked at it again, I realized there are 3 pouches at the time that slide over 3 plastic pieces and then the Velcro adheres. After I did that, I had no problem with the bunching up. It works great. The bucket holds just enough water that the bucket is not heavy. There is no mess and the two plugs at the bottom are great for emptying in the sink. The pads collect a lot of dirt. As for maneuverability, if the mop itself was able to click into the handle both ways, it would be easier to insert into both the wet and dry. Not sure if this problem is just because I am left handed, which happens with a lot of things, but I find I have to reverse it every time I try to insert. Overall, I would recommend this product. Lastly, because it is compact, it is very easy to store. The mop was delivered in about a week and easy to put together, everything is clearly labeled.

My favorite mop and bucket. I love how nicely it squeezes out the mop on the "dry" side, so the mop doesn't soak the floor. It's a little light and sometimes I worry the handle will bend, but if I'm careful it works great. My first one lasted me six years before the head broke off in the bucket and I had to buy it again. It's still a flimsy handle, but still my favorite mop.

Just used this for the first time and cleaned a wood floor with a Swiffer wet mop first and then used this system. The Swiffer pad was filthy after using, but left a lot of dirt which this microfiber pad removed. Then I cleaned a vinyl kitchen floor with just the microfiber system and it did a pretty good job, but I did have to go back and scrub a spot with a sponge to get it off. The floors both dried quickly so that was nice.I like that the mop and bucket are compact and store easily and that the mop pad can be washed and reused.A few issues I experienced were: The handle unscrewed while using which was odd, but easy to screw back on. I found it a bit awkward to dip the mop in the wash and rinse parts at times and had to manually push the mop head around to get it in the bucket at times. (Learning curve I guess) I didn't snap the top of the bucket on correctly one time and it came off when I was rinsing the mop. Think it will be better as I get used to it. All in all I like it and may clean the floors more often as this is easier and more light weight than what I was using (sponge mop and bucket of water)

I never thought mopping could be considered fun but this makes a tedious chore way easier. The handle parts screw together easily and the bucket design is so clever. Just fill to the max water line, add your cleaning agent of choice (I use Murphy's oil soap on hardwood and tile floors), and off you go. You swish it a few times then squeegee in the empty side - there's a little plastic blade that scrapes off the water and a hole that diverts most of it back into the other side. When you pull up, there's no resistance. Squeegee once leaves your floors pretty wet, twice is perfect, three times gets too dry and you won't be able to clean much.When you dip back into the water, there's rows of little plastic nubs that scrapes the debris off the mop pad. Scrape a few times to clean it, squeegee again, then mop - easy peasy.My old method was tying microfiber cloths to the green swiffer but it dried out fast and I had to get my hands dirty. This thing is so much easier easier and faster.The only con is that it doesn't go completely flat. When you angle at a certain point to get under furniture, it tips back against the handle and the mop pad doesn't touch the floor anymore. If it had the same maneuverability as the green swiffer, it would be perfect.6/2021 Update - the mop and bucket are still doing great, but the mops pads have seen better days. Unfortunately, within a few weeks of my first review I already saw loose threads and fraying. Now it's completely torn through on the strip that hooks onto the mop =/ time to order new mop heads.

I needed a mop but I didn't want to use the more traditional kinds which are messier and harder to clean. The design of this mop is as brilliant as it appears on the page. I'll go over a few of the features I like best:-A series of nubs on the inside of the bucket allow you to scrape off larger debris every time you dip it into the water.-The bucket itself is small and easy to empty out onto a outdoor plant or the toilet when you're done.-The mop head has replaceable pads so there's less waste when it comes time to replace it than with traditional mops.-The dry side squeegee helps the mop dry quickly and easily without using a lot of pressure. This would be good for someone who has difficulty removing water from traditional mops.-The mop handle breaks down enough where the entire kit can be stored in the bucket. Useful for moving.The only con is if you have some built up grime somewhere, it can be hard for it to stick to the mop and you just end up pushing it around. It's not a dealbreaker though by any means. The mop can still pick it up, it's just a little more difficult.
