So after umming and aahhhing, I bought one this morning and have just tried it on my kitchen laminate.

OMG! It's way cleaner than my old mop, it's streak free and it isn't soggy and my DS can play on it immediately!

Why oh why did I wait so long?! And I've got the duster head so I can do the non sticky laminate upstairs in the spare room! Now, if only DH would get out of there so I can start on it. The fact that he's working shouldn't be an excuse! Grin

Is this just a microfibre floor cloth? I've been using the vileda one for years - does anyone know whether the e cloth pad is better or is it just a different brand of the same thing?

What is an e-mop please?

This Grin

Seriously brilliant. Don't know if it's like the Vileda one though, but it knocks spots off my foam Vileda mop.

Nope, Homebase.

Got a spare deep clean head and a dusting head too.

Kitchen normally takes 1/2 an hour to mop and dry - 5 minutes now!!!

I gave in and bought one today - so it's a bit like the vileda one but the ecloth is so much better - grippier, definitely worth making the investment!

So, when we were all at school, swotting up on our history and geography exams....crying over maths......is this where we thought we would end up Grin

But, OP, I know exactly what you mean. They are fab!

Well, I was a bit of a slob before DS arrived; working meant I was out at 7am back at 6.30pm, dinner, then a bit of a tidy, then bed.

Now I'm at home (although I am a WAHM) it's nice to have a tidy ignoring all the toys! house, and finding things that make my life easier is actually more satisfying than finding errors in balance sheets! Grin

I should never have read the FlyLady website Wink

I'm almost converted - but do you think it would get dried on food off a slightly rough tiled floor?

Hmm, don't know about rough floors... Lemme read the packet in the recycling...

Does say stone... But the picture is the kindof flat polished stone. Confused

I bought one of these about 2 years ago, I love it. It is just so practical and simple.

I use ecloths for all my cleaning, and though this isn't the cleanest house in the land, (that's because I am a lazy bugger) I do recommend them Grin
