Not a terribly interesting topic I'm afraid!

I'm looking for some recommendations for mops. It needs to be relatively cheap, that doesn't need a bucket and that is compact, as I have very little space.

Alternatively, if anybodies got any tips for the cleaning the floors without the need for a mop that would also be good. I have a very dirty marked kitchen floor (lino)and the rest of the house is laminate.

Thanks,

Muso x

    We have a couple of those twisty mop thingies
    They are ace ,you can get the mop really dry so cut drying time of the floor :)

    We had one with rubber rollers that squeezed the sponge end ,rubbish because it still left the sponge really sopping wet
    Traditional mop heads need bleach to keep sanitised ,which I cannot use (besides you need a squeeze bucket )
  • Muso, when I lived in Italy they just used a large floor cloth under the sweeping brush, rinsed it and carried on, not sure I am explaiining this very well, but it worked on all the floor surfaces, give it a try it could save you a fortune.
