How to clean the mop? Can I use detergent? It becomes very dirty after I first used it today. Thanks.

Yes the mops are made to be easily thrown in the washer and dryer with the rest of your laundry. Yes you can use detergent and also when you need more mops please email parts@pyleaudio.com and they will get you more mops.

Yes, I threw it right into the wash with towels or jeans. It washes up well, once after a big day with grandchildren, I used a spray stain remover on it. It came out great. I did not put it in the dryer but laid it flat to dry.

Is it still new? I would return it, if so. Otherwise, I would suggest maybe some WD-40 around the mechanism. I have mine in my hands right now and it should not be difficult to pull towards you. Do you have a brother, husband or neighbor who maybe can put some muscle into it? BTW, I LOVE this mop. You may have a defective one.

You have to push it down and around and pull it up against the sponge so that it squeezes the sponge. It's a pain and it's messy. Dirty water will run down your arm. I really didn't like this mop. If you feel adventurous, the best mopper is the Scooba by iRobot. You fill the tank, press a button, and it mops your floors for you. I also highly recommend the Roomba. Good luck with the Mr. Clean! :)

You should sweep or dry mop the floor first to remove any dirt/debris before you use the Swiffer/Bissel because it simply ejects steam to clean the floors and doesn't suction, but the results are worth it!

No that is not normal. I can see and feel the steam coming out of my mop. Make sure you have plent of water in the holder, plug it in and wait until you can see the steam coming out. You may need to hit it gently on the floor if there is no steam after maybe 10 minutes. If none of this works, you may have a defective mop. Mine steams lots! Gay

Just wash the bottom with running water and let it dry Do not use detergent or any cleanser Thank you

It is not a mop. It is a sweeper, the dirt gets trapped in a small tray under the bottom. I've used it on my kitchen floor a few times without having to empty it.

So what is your opinion about the refurbished mop? I wouldn't mind one if all the kinks have been fixed.

One reviewer I read was told by the company to put plain water in the mop w/o the reservoir being attached and spray a few times. This worked. Hope that helps.

Don't take i apart to clean it, just put hot water & soap in a pan/cup and blend it for a few seconds then rinse and dry (unplug to dry!!).

I read that too before I purchased it and was a little leary, but I haven't any proablems. I have all hardwood floors and this mop spins out so dry that I can damp mop alot more often. I feel like the floors are much cleaner than just vacuuming. The mop heads rinse out so well I've not had to replace the first one.

You are doing nothing wrong. All that mop and the Bona does is spread the dirt around. It does not "trap" dirt and remove it from the floor. If you keep using that you will have a sticky film on your floor that takes 20-30 moppings to get it off. Terrible stuff.

Keep using the same one just rinse it clean. My husband put it on a piece of wood attached to a mop handle.

I used Dawn dish detergent straight up. Let it sit on the spot for awhile then used a plastic mesh scrubber and a little force. Worked like a charm.

I use plain water and spray a hardwood cleaner on the floor. The spray allows you to rinse as you go. This is the best mop I have ever used! So easy, a pleasure to do a job I usually hate. I bought as gifts so impressed. Get it!

Mops are great. I just throw them in the wash after each use. I've been using them for a year, and not had to replace them yet.
