A long time ago, I was brainwashed into thinking that the only way to truly clean a floor was to do a Cinderella-cleaning: down on my hands and knees, scrubbing away.
And I actually believed this. After all, when you use a mop, it’s hard and messy to wring it out and you end up slopping some dirty water on the floor.
So, I was stuck doing a Cinderella-scrubbing, cleaning up after my boys whom I think are in some sort of competition to see who can be the world’s messiest child.
Enter the Spin & Go β’!
The Spin & Go Touchless Mop and Wringer has a patented super absorbent MICROFIBER Mop Head with 1,720,000 washable Microfibers gets rid of dirt and grime easily. Lightweight and ultra slim, adjustable for effortless cleaning and hands free wringing. It is the best dry mop for dusting hard to reach places, great for cleaning cars too, and it rotates 360 degrees. There are no disposable pads to change or touch. It’s earth friendly and affordable, costing $49.95.
But, how does this mess-free mop work? After all, on the infomercials, they show a girl in evening clothes using it! Not that you’ll ever find me mopping in evening clothes…or in evening clothes, period. But, it shouldn’t get my yoga pants all messy, right?
After filling up the bucket, making sure not to fill above the fill line, I dipped the mop head into the bucket.
The next step is to put the mop head flat into the spinner. I was a little concerned about this because it seems so big and you can’t have any part of it hanging out of the spinner when you spin it. But, it easily fit.
You step down on the foot pedal a few times- the more you step, the less moisture is left on the mop head.
And yes, it’s true- hands-free wringing and no messy puddle! So excited not to have to resort to a Cinderella-scrubbing!

toliets are a major nono- and when it gets really cold the bathtub- I don't know why but it gets cleaned less in the winter-
I hate to clean anything in my own house period. I hate to feel unappreciated and to watch the other 5 go through in minutes and make it a mess/dirty again.
I hate to clean my kids… does that count? ha ha
The tub – although I found a terrific product for that and now it is a little less painful.

I hate cleaning the floors, and have yet to find a good solution! I've steam mopped, schmopped, and scrubbed, but haven't been happy. I would love to win this! jennie dot hildenbrand at gmail
To be honest, I love to clean only because I take pride in a clean home BUT if there is anything I'd rather not clean it is the kitchen floor. Seems to be dirty no matter how often I mop….lol.
I DESPISE cleaning my floors. Our new house has less "mopable" space, but I loathe it. I've tried using the swiffer wet jet, a steam mop, a mop that you have to wring out manually, a mop that has the wringer-outer thing ON it and nothing seems to get the floors the way I like them.
Most recently I've started using the wringer on the handle mop with a bucket and it seems to work, but it's such a darn CHORE. If it were easier or more fun (like my mop sang to me or something) I wouldn't mind doing it…

I consider myself a 'Martha' rather than a 'Mary' in life and mopping floors is sooooo way down the line… but, as my Mother used to say, "You could be living on the streets with NO floor to clean and wax, and how would that be, Young Lady?"… Not sure I grasp the point, even today, but it seemed to get me through the chore…

I don't like cleaning my shower or tub, I have to climb inside them to get clean so end up getting soaked but have to say my feet end up looking pretty good.
I hate cleaning the tile near the dog's dish; it's constantly gross. The mop might help!

I have three sons so you can guess how much I hate cleaning their bathroom. Second most hated would be the laundry room. Somehow all the clutter that accumulates in the house gets tossed into the laundry room until mom gets time to sort it out.
