Granero also put some mops to work, and this fan-favorite came out on top with the title of “best mop overall.” She says it “hit the sweet spot between convenience, absorbency, agility and cost-efficiency.” (Speaking of cost, it’s currently within a buck of its lowest price to date.)
She adds, “The mop was easy to assemble (it took mere seconds), and the pole is adjustable so you can customize the length based on your height and the task at hand. The bucket has a handle for easy maneuvering. You can spin the wringer with a tap of the foot pedal, so you don’t need to manually strain the mop when it needs draining or replenishing. … The RinseClean has two water chambers — one for clean and one for dirty — so you can ensure you’re using the fresh stuff without constantly dumping and refilling a bucket.
“The string-style mop head is super absorbent: It managed to sop up large volumes of water and capture every last drop of the spaghetti sauce, chocolate syrup, honey and grape jelly we splattered on the floor for our testing.
“Another bonus: The flexibility of the strings and the triangular shape of the mop head make it easy to clean baseboards, plus into corners and crevices. It’s an all-around great mop, especially for kitchen and bathroom cleaning.”
