A very boring mop and bucket thread

16 replies

I need a mop that will self wring in a normal bucket.. not a bucket with a wringer cos it won't fit in my cupboard

So the flat oblong ones are no good cos of using a smallish normal bucket, and I've tried the systems with the tall bucket and flat head mop but found it very flimsy.

So I need a small bucket (thinking I might buy a collapsible one) and a suitable mop

Any suggestions very much appreciated x

I have a minute bucket with a wringer and it was from Poundland. I have the same problem with space.

I bought this genius set-up when we were short for space - there is a wringer bucket and clean water bucket but they separate and stack indide each other. The mop wrings beautifully too. I bought in france hence the link is amazon france www.amazon.fr/gp/product/B00KYL9C8G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Check Home Bargains, The Range, B & M Bargains, Dunelm. I've got one of those spin mops, and, they're amazing!

Dispense with the bucket altogether!!!

I use a microfibre mop head and a squirt & mop floor cleaner from Method - you just squirt it straight from the bottle on the floor, mop with the microfibre, jobs a good’un. Microfibre heads go in the wash. Super easy.

I use a spray mop with washable mop pads. Much easier.

The same. Brilliant, no messy mops or buckets to store. The lemony one smells amazing and I use the almond one on my wooden floors. Hate the rhubarb one though!

Love my spray mop. DH loves it too.

MonkeyPuddle · 06/01/2022 22:18

Spray mop is the way forward. I hang mine up in a hook under the stairs.

I've used an emop for years. Best mop ever! No bucket, you just wet and wring the cloth in the sink before velcroing it on:

I recently bought a Spondex twist mop ( twist the collar to wring it)
Microfibre so dries quickly
I used a small plain bucket .

I have a Shark steamer (converts to a handheld) but the head is too big to fit behind the loo
And a flat mop but its a pain to use , better for damp dusting

Method Floor smells lovely and safe on little cat paws but I find it can be sticky

Fabulous !
