It is machine washable and attaching it back is easy once you figure it out.

Yes, just be very careful not to break any of the parts that you will be removing :)

Simply place mop head on floor, step on mop strands and pull handle up. The head quickly snaps off and you can toss it in the washer.

I've washed the mop head many many times. I believe it's been constructed to wear well after numerous washings.

Yes, the 2 mop heads are reusable and extremely durable, just throw them in the washer. The mop head is extra wide so you can mop large areas quickly. You can use your favorite cleaner to fill the water container.

No the mop handle does not fold. It is a very good mop for light washing of laminate and linoleum floors.

Although I now have the Shark Lift Away, I have owned various models and the mop heads were all interchangeable. They were all excellent even when I used them for commercial cleaning of a restaurant (not designed for it but they worked perfectly!). Good luck!

I would recommend to ask the manufacture. You probably can wash everything but the housing with the electric motor.

It is super easy to replace the mop head! I take it off and wash it every time I use the mop (I've had it for about 4 years), and it's the same process with a new mop head. Here's a description of the process: There is a plastic (but not flimsy) clip at the end of the pole holding the mop head to the pole; I pull out the clip and then slide the mop head off the pole. To wash it, I also remove the plastic shaft that comes inserted through the center of the mop head. It just goes down into the middle of the mop and then I pull it out between the strings. Then I can wash the mop head and put it all back together easily, the same way. You have to make sure to pull the shaft all the way to the top of the mop head, though, usually by pushing the mop down while pulling the shaft until the mop head is secure. As a note, the shaft is a little flimsy--plenty sturdy for me, but my husband cracked one of the little pieces on the shaft when he was using it. I'm not sure how, but I haven't had any problems.

It's not easy. Brace the mop handle with your feet and pull the old mop head out. You can then spot the track into which you shove the new mop head. It also takes a little horsepower.

You can try but making the mop head stay flat with out the gravitational force may make it harder than if you just scrub. I know shark has a mop that has attachments that you could use but this particular version doesn't have them.

Yes, but you will have to get the stray, wet strings out of your washer. My mop head sheds like a dog...maybe just was not put together very well.

I could not find just the mop handle anywhere, but you can buy the mop handle w/mop head from their website. The heads hold up pretty good and you can get replacement heads at Amazon (cheaper by a long shot). I change mine every coupe of months. Although I do wash them, they don't soak up liquids as well after a while.

Yes it is machine washable. I've done mine several times and it looks great!

I don't think so. The pads for my mop are flat, layered with the washing surface, then sponge, then the layer that velcroes itself to the mop base. It's about 4" x 10" (don't have it in front of me, sorry). The mop bends the head in half longways to wring it. The mop itself has only the velcro surface, no place for anything solid to attach. If I find a picture of mine to send you, I'll write again. Chris

Yes. Two strips of Velcro are on mop head and easily sticks to pad to keep in place. I just love this mop!! Previous reviewer mentioned handle twists at mop head...I solved that by wrapping area with duck tape.

The hairs I pick up in the bathroom come off when rinsing the mop head in clean water. Also I put the mop head in the washing machine where it comes out nice and white again. As for the pole I glued the mid way part of the handle.
