Motherhood is a thankless job; we cook, we clean, we change dirty diapers, and we mop…it’s that last chore that this mommy dislikes most.  With hardwood floors throughout most of my house sweeping and mopping daily (sometimes several times a day) is a chore that is both dreaded and necessary.

I have had major back problems since I had my son three years ago, most days my back hurts from the time I wake up until the time I go to bed, and bending over to wring out a mop only makes that pain worse.  Last year I bought a steam mop thinking that it would alleviate some of the bending, but in reality the steam mop is harder on my back than a regular mop, so after about a month of using it a couple of times a day I retired it to the hall closet where it has stayed since.  After retiring the steam mop I reluctantly went back to the good old fashioned mop and that is what I have been using daily ever since…until I discovered the Spin & Go Touchless  Mop and Wringer System!

Given my less than great experience with my steam mop (which was an expensive, very popular brand by the way) I was a little hesitant about trying the Spin & Go.  I had seen the infomercials on TV and wondered how well it worked, so when I had the chance to review it I thought sure, why not.  Before I get into what I thought of the Spin & Go I want to tell you a little more about the product and how it works.

It really is as easy as that!  Attach the mop head to the handle, get wet, spin excess water out, and you’re mopping in seconds.  Some of the fabulous features of the Spin & Go Touchless Mop & Wringer include:

*  Its microfiber mop head.  With 1,720,000 microfibers the mop head picks up dirt that standard cotton mops cannot!
*  The microfiber mop head is super absorbent; cleans up spills easily and effectively!
*  The Spin & Go mop head rotates 360 degrees and attaches to change mop heads easily!
*  .The Spin & Go mop is extremely light and easy to manage.
*  Microfiber mop head can do a number of different jobs:  wet, dry mop, and dusts.

I was very excited to try the Spin & Go, as a matter of fact, I used the mop within an hour of the FedEx driver dropping it off…yes it is a tad bit weird that I was that excited to mop my floors.  The first thing I noticed was how easily the microfiber mop head attached and detached from the mop handle and how light the mop was even when wet.  As soon as I wet the mop head and placed it into the wringer basket to remove the excess water I was sold on the Spin & Go, not having to bend over and wring out a dirty mop head was a foreign concept to me, but it was a concept that I was more than happy to explore!  One of the issues I was concerned about before trying the Spin & Go was the wringer basket not getting rid of enough of the excess water, but the mop head came out wet enough  to thoroughly mop, but not enough to cause a mess.    As I mopped my living room floor I noticed how much quicker the job became when I wasn’t constantly stopping and bending over, what used to take a good 10 minutes was done and almost dry in about 5 minutes!  You can check out a video of the Spin & Go in action below!


What I love about the Spin & Go:  Everything!  Seriously this mop and wringer system has made mopping a chore that I don’t mind doing.  It has made the job easier, quicker, and much less painful than the traditional mop I had been using.  I would definitely recommend this mop to everyone who hates mopping as much as I used to!

What I didn’t like about the Spin & Go:  Honestly the only thing I could even come up with was cleaning the mop head.  While it does say you can machine wash the mop head when needed I would be hesitant to place the mop head in my washing machine simply because of the hard plastic base that the microfiber is attached to.

Buy it!
You can purchase the Spin & Go online for $49.99…make sure to pick up a few extra mop heads too!  

Boy do I have a treat for all of you!  One MIBR reader is going to win a Spin & Go Touchless Mop & Wringer system!

  1. Oh, I so need this mop! I have hardwood floors throughout my house! I have 1 room that has carpet and that is it!

  2. I need this because we just had new hardwood and tile put down in our house. I have a really hard time bending over to wring out a mop due to a Chiari malformation so this would make things easier on me.

  44. I need it because I have laminate floors throughout the house, and since the mop is apparently left in a damp rather than wet state when spun, that would be best for mopping those floors.

  157. Thanks for the giveaway...we need a Spin & Go Touchless Mop & Wringer system to replace our old, stinky cotton mop, bucket & wringer because no matter what we do the mop gets a foul odor that won't go away !
