does anyone have issues with the pad sticking to floor.... very hard on the back

No, I don't have any problems with the pad sticking to the floor. I think you may need to apply more cleaning solution to the floor. The mop should glide and you should be able to wipe away sticky areas easily after soaking it first with the cleaning solution.

No I use Bona products and clear water. I have low back and hip problems and love my bona pads.

I have had this problem as well. I think it's more the ergonomics of the mop handle that came in the kit I purchased. It works ok for me if used as a dry mop, but as soon as I spray the mop or the floor (lightly) with Bona), it stutters and sticks instead of gliding. I've just purchased another pad and am giving it another try, keeping one pad for wet mopping and one for dry.

I have ceramic tile and it doesn't stick to my floor thus it doesn't cause back problems.

No. I use it damp and go lightly, after sweeping and doing a pass with the dry white pad. Sometimes I exert a little extra pressure, which is good for getting up spots.

Yes! Since Day 1. Kills my back. I emailed Bona and they said the old pads have been replaced with a better pad. Guess I'll try that. Didn't matter how much of the Bona spray I use. Also, the pad is bigger than the mop itself and continually rolls over making it worse.

As long as you are using the bona spray - mine is easy. I wash the pad, but hang to dry, no dryer.

sorry it did not help at all. The cutout is too big and the pad itself too hard. I felt like I was slipping off it all the time

Everything on top moves as things normally move. The desk pad slips around a little but I have my desk up against a wall so it pretty much stays in place. I've heard you can make it stick better by whipping a damp cloth over the desk and then putting on the pad. Besides that, unless your the type to lean your whole body and Swype across, the pad won't move; it doesn't move very easily. My desk is a pressed wood with painted matte finish which can be slippery as you can imagine.

I have the same pad and have used it for 6 months. I have used it both laying on the bed with the pad under my shoulder, and while sitting on a chair. I place the pad over my shoulder, and using an elastic, I wrap the elastic around the pad with no problems.

It does not seem to fall on the floor. However, it is really hard to erase. I believe we applied it correctly, but the result is not so good (we only have an erasing problem). They refund me with no problem when I contacted customer support. So I can buy it again and give it another shot.

We have had our unit for about 3 weeks and the pads have retained their stickiness. We love this unit and it is everything described in the ad. After each use replace the plastic cover on each pad and keep in the envelope, and you should have no problem with them. My husband and I have both been using the unit over and over. It is a powerful unit and has 10 settings, but we only use it up to 5 or 6. You will not be disappointed.

Shouldn't be a problem. It's a fairly solid and heavy pad. I play it on a couch cushion and the bed and it is solid, no movement at all.

I found that if the pads are not making sticking great you get a shock. When that starts I usually tape them down with medical tape (I use the type for sensitive skin). This has caused me to look for better pads. I found healthmateforever are better than no name

I had an older one that I recently replaced with the newer model. Both the new one and the older one did that, but I found that it usually meant I needed to change the pad, it wasn't damp enough any longer. I lover my newer one because it is longer, not any where near as short as my first one was.

Ours stuck on perfectly and has not come down. Our tiles are very smooth and even, so I think that if you aren't sticking it to an even or smooth surface, it might not work. I would suggest trying some Command double sided waterproof strips and using those to get it to stay up. Here is a pic of the strips I'm talking about ...http://multimedia.3m.com/mws/mediawebserver?mwsId=SSSSSufSevTsZxtUO8_GlxmGevUqevTSevTSevTSeSSSSSS--

Problem.... I spoke too soon. Used mine again this weekend and it definitely does slip. Sorry for the bad news update. It is possible to slip it back, just takes a little messing around with it. Too bad they don't fix that problem, seems like it wouldn't be difficult, and then the product would be awesome.

Somehow got this in my email, but yes and no. This pad is a Velcro-backed pad.....the discs you use w/ it need to be cloth-backed and they "stick" to the Velcro pad. CB

Speaking for myself, I've had two garden kneelers and to date have had no problems with the pad. I've asked my wife and her response is the same, no problems. Thanks, I will keep an eye on them and if I do have problems in the future will let you know.

We do not have that issue. I have them on hardwood floors and tile flooring and they slide very nicely. I do have the "beads of rubber " on the inside , could that be your problem?

I found it slipped quite a bit on a hardwood floor. I used carpet grip padding underneath and it held ok. I did not use it on to of a carpet. Guessing that may give the grip it needs to stay still.

It's a little stiff at first. Then it gets easier as you do it a few times. I recommend the anti slip pad for under neath so it doesn't slide.
