Can anyone recommend me a spray mop that won't break

Hi all, I use spray mops for my downstairs wooden floors - but every single one I have tried stops working after a short time, the spray bit doesn't work or the handle breaks or something. They all seem flimsy. Any recommendations for a good solidly built one?? Thanks and sorry for the very boring question!!


This thread is a little old now so some of the suggestions may be out of date, but if you’ve landed here looking for mop recommendations, we’ve recently updated our best floor mops page with lots of great options, as tried and tested by Mumsnet users. We hope you find it useful. Flowers

I go though them really fast, I lean on the handle too hard

I've got the Vileda 1-2 spray mop. We're both very heavy handed and clumsy and it's lasted for a good few years so far !

The purple Flash one.

Bona Spray Mop. I've had my one for over 10 years, used every other day.

I feel your pain. The vileda one is still going after 6 months, the others only lasted weeks.

I am in the US and I would pay import fees to get a decent one.

@Ohcantthinkofaname
Bona is Swedish, you'll find Bona in USA.

Had my Addis one a couple of years and it's still good as new...but I am a mop slattern and don't use it as frequently as I should....

We've had our vileda one for 4 years. Highly recommended

They’re all crap. I’ve gone back to a traditional one. I just break the others. Maybe it’s me!
