O-CedarEasyWring Microfiber Spin Mop, Bucket Floor Cleaning System, Red, Gray, Standard

I'm going to start by saying this mop is amazing. The price is decent, the size of the bucket is just right (too much mop water wastes and heavy to carry around, too little doesn't hold enough dirt in solution), the pedal-activated spinning centrifuge to drain the water is so simple it's genius, for the most part this mop is GOAT in my book. I've used a ton of other mops, including the cheap ten dollar kind where you have to twist the ratcheting handle to squeeze the water out, this beats all of them hands down.It does have a few small problems though and they should be easy for O'Cedar to fix.1. The bucket has an imprint inside it to show you the quantity of water in liters, including the max fill line, this imprint was done so shallow they're nearly impossible to see. These should stick out more and ideally be painted white over the letters. If they were only sticking out more that would be fine, someone could easily use a paint marker to highlight these but currently we can't.2. The distance between the outer perimeter of the centrifuge and the sides of the bucket is somewhat small, it's very easy to go past the centrifuge with the mop head and just drip mop water all over the sides, especially on top of the pedal, which then makes the pedal slippery. They could add a small wall around the perimeter of the centrifuge, maybe an inch high to solve this.3. The mop head doesn't have enough strands and they're not balanced well enough. If you're on tacky surfaces or pushing your mop away from your body, it's very easy for the strands to get caught on the surface, and the edge of the mop head (the red triangle) makes contact with the surface, you can damage hardwood floors accidentally. The mop head needs to be more dense.4. A clip or some kind of holder on the bucket to hold the mop when not in use would have been great as well.Other than these few problems, the mop has a lot of other things going well for it in addition to everything I already mentioned:1. The ergonomics are great, there's a little handle under the pedal you can grasp to tilt the bucket to empty it out, the bucket holds well in the hand too.2. The mop wand is decent. The collapsing design is great for storage after use, it's a little tough to twist to collapse but it works. Haven't noticed any weakness in it, it does creak but it's made of plastic, never snapped on me and doesn't seem like it ever will.3. The pedal-activated wringing out is more accessible for older and disabled people because it requires lower leg strength, other mops require upper arm strength to wring out the mop. People usually have worse dexterity in their hands and arms than they do their legs since we walk on our legs and stand upright against gravity constantly, even people who don't regularly exercise will find this easier to use.4. It makes mopping fun and convenient, which makes people mop more than they normally would, this is always a good thing.5. When you're done, rinse the mop head out, let it dry, then stow your mop and whatever bottle of mopping solution in the bucket itself, to save space.6. The gears and mechanism for the pedal-activated centrifuge are clearly visible and appear to be easily removable with a few screws. Yes they're plastic which sucks because the durability is low, but it also means they're probably cheap to replace if you strip or wear them out, you can probably even 3D print replacement gears if you have a 3D printer.All in all this is an excellent mop for everyone: yourself, for older or disabled people, kids on chore duty, great for people who live in small apartments, it's a total win in my book.Here are some tips:1. When using the pedal, keep your foot in contact with the pedal at all times, do not push it down than raise your foot faster than the pedal comes up, without anything on top the pedal comes up too fast and grinds the plastic gears, not a good sound and they'll strip eventually.2. I find mopping side to side (with the tip of the mop head pointing forward) works better than moving the mop forward or backward, but this is just good mopping technique in general.3. Plan how you're going to mop: I like to decide where I'm going to stop mopping in my apartment, then work furthest from that area backwards to where I want to stop, this way I minimize walking on any freshly mopped surface.4. If you're working on a tacky/sticky surface, the mop strands will grab more due to the increased friction, this will unbalance the mop head and you'll start to strike the surface with the plastic on the mop head, to allow the mop head to glide smoothly, increase the amount of mopping solution in the head (don't spin as much out) for these areas.5. Let the mop head do the work! Don't push down on the mop head, let it glide over the surface and put your effort in moving the mop head side to side.

Love this mop. I have LPV through out my three level home. Previously used a swiffer which took a long time and went through multiple pad changes on each level. This mop operated flawlessly. I was able to use hot water and the wringing mechanism worked perfectly. Mop head is a little smaller than I would like but I am able to clean between the spindles in my landing, curved staircase and double stairway to basement. I used a side to side motion for mopping the floor and had no issue with the telescoping handle collapsing or the mop head flipping. Very easy to use. Again so much easier than a swiffer and feel the floors are much cleaner. Washed the mop head after use and set out to dry made for a super easy clean up. Collapsed the handle and stored the clean mop head and handle in the bucket.

I have only used this spin mop twice now, but I like it so much more than my old spin mop, I’m writing this review. My first spin mop was by Hurricane and I loved it, but the spin pump broke after three years, so I’m trying the Cedar spin mop. It seems much better than my old one. Sturdier as to the bucket and spinner and the mop head seems to be better and cleaning seems smoother now. I hope I feel the same way after using it longer, but so far I think it’s wonderful for the price!

This is my first actual mop I have purchased and I am in LOVE! I have been using my swifter, which had been leaving streaks. The swifter along with the streaks didn’t seem to clean my floor well. It was somehow sticky after. I have been putting fabuloso and water inside it and I figured that’s what was causing the problems. I just got the spin mop today and used the same products inside the water today. I am very pleased to say that my floors are super clean with no streaks and quite a shine to them. I would definitely recommend this mop to anyone struggling with the same problems.

First, keep in mind that this mop was just delivered about 20 mins ago and I haven't actually used it yet. I will try to update later after I've used it a few times.I just wanted to say that I've already had some difficulty assembling it. Your supposed to twist the grey handles to the left to lock in place, that worked fine and seems to be good now. I was not aware of how much twisting was involved however. Lol Lots! It seems you have to do it in a certain order too starting at the top and working down. Then once the handle is all tight and ready to go you attach the flat triangle mop part to the handle twisting to the left. Atleast that is how it worked for me. Once I figured all that out and did a whole lot of twisting it came together pretty well and seems to be pretty sturdy.I was able to attach the mop head with just my fingers. Was really easy on that part. I also purchased some replacement mop heads as I like to have different ones to use on different rooms. So I went to remove the one that came in the kit so I could make sure the replacement ones were going to fit. The instructions show to put your foot on the strings and move handle away from your foot to pop off mop head. Umm yeah, not so good. The whole gray plastic piece came out of the flat red piece so now I'm standing there with handle in one hand and the rest in the floor. Thankfully I was able to snap it back together but I'm hoping that now that it has popped out it doesn't keep coming apart there. I was able to remove the mop head with my fingers so I wouldn't suggest using your foot like the instructions say.It's all together now and seems pretty well made otherwise. The bucket is nice. Seems like a pretty heavy duty bucket compared to the others I've had. I think I'm going to like this kit very much but like I said before I haven't actually used it yet so I'll try to leave an update later after I've used it a while.I took off one star for the few issues I had but maybe will change that later. If no more issues I really still think this is the best mop I've had so far.
