Title: Sponge mop or fabric mop?
Post by: Mop it up on August 10, 2009, 03:36:37 PM
Which type of mop do you prefer?
I myself use both actually. For everyday mopping I use a fabric mop because it has a larger cleaning area and it holds dirt better. For sticky spots or stains I use a sponge mop for its better scrubbing power.

So Birdo's blowhole doesn't work as a mop of some sort?

This is what happens when we let too many women into the forums.

Is sexism allowed on NWR? I don't remember anything in the rules about it. It could be allowed, unlike gay jokes.

Mops are for chumps.
Scoobas are for ballers.

I knew I shouldn't have created this topic, I've got to start listening to those quiet, nagging doubts...
You'd get a real mop. Swiffer is no good, it doesn't hold much dirt and takes three clothes to clean the entirety of my floors. That's a lot of money wasted on clothes.
I agree that Swiffer sucks as a broom substitute, but get the wet cloths for it and it's a great mop.
I personally prefer that for home mopping. But I'm most familiar with the mops at work. It's funny because I was laughing tonight at work about how I was 'Moping it up'. At work we use the stringy fabric mops but they have a scrubby pad attached to it as well for getting grimy spots. The floors can be a pain, but I think I made a new personal record in cleaning them. I'm usually meticulous that I can take over an hour to clean the whole floor of the store I was at tonight but I finished in 30 minutes flat. It has these little grooves that collect dirt (they are supposed to keep you from slipping, but they don't). :P

No it isn't. It just becomes even more expensive waste.

My Mom gave me a Swiffer when I left for school and I'm too cheap to buy a new mop when I have that. I refuse to use a Swiffer for sweeping, though. But the Swiffer cloths are great for dusting.
I'll figure out what to do once I run out of the wet cloths. I may change to a regular mop.

You'll save more money when you clean your floors less.
Solution.

So hey, I bought a mop. I bought it at Walmart, it's a fabric mop that you can strech out and twist to ring out the water. My floor is still dirty in places.

What brand was it? If you buy a cheap mop you get a cheap clean.
