Rubermaid Reveal Floor Mop

[bettymae1121]

I just got one of these today and thought I'd pass this along, since this is a money saver for those that like to use the Swiffer WetJet for cleaning floors.

This mop is similar to the WetJet in that you squeeze the trigger to squirt cleaning liquid on to your floor, then use the mop to clean. With the WetJet, you can only use their solution as the bottle isn't refillable and you must use their disposable pads, which adds to the landfill and of course costs you money to buy more pads.

This mop gives you two refilable bottles so you can use any cleaner you like, and you get three washable pads (similar to the steam mop pads).

I bought it because though I love how the WetJet works, I want to switch to non-toxic cleaners. With this I can use a vinegar/water mix instead!

I haven't mopped a whole floor with it yet as I just got it this afternoon. But I did try it out in a small area of my kitchen and I already love it!

The only other difference is that while the WetJet uses batteries to power the sprayer, the Reveal is like a very long spray bottle. There is a triger at the top similar to a spray bottle and you just squeeze/release/squeeze/release it to spray the solution (it squirts out in a fine mist from a nozel just above the pad). That might make your hand tired if you're mopping a big floor. The upside is that you aren't using batteries (again that costs you money to replace and adds to landfill).

So far as I can tell, you can only order them online thru Rubermaid, I checked several stores around me and none of them carry them. I found a coupon code for $5 off and with shipping I think it came to about $30 for the mop, two bottles and three pads.

Thanks for the review. I was hoping to get this mop through HOUSE PARTY for free, but I didn't get accepted as a host.
