The mop head removes from the black circular disc as pictured. This disc may be white or black.

Yes it can be washed in the washer and an extra mop head comes with it. The mop head attached to the blue disk very simply and stays on. When you want to change it you simply pull it off. Love the bucket works like a champ and is very heavy duty although not too heavy to move around.

There is a ring on the mop strings that fits very snugly around the circle in the middle of the blue cap. It's the same idea as fitting a tight lid on a container - hold one side with the palms of your hands and "start" pushing it down around the middle circle in one place - once you get a small part started (remember to keep pressure on the opposite side so it doesn't pop off) slowly work your way around pushing it down and around. Good Luck!

It is best if the mop head becomes very dirty. You can quickly peel it off then rinse it off in a bucket. The starfiber material attracts dirt like a magnet. The good thing is, is that it rinses clean very quickly. We have several of the pads so we can do the entire house without having to rinse. This thing is amazing.

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.

For cleaning, this is what I did (and it worked!):Removed the head, ran warm water over it until completely wet, spread about a tablespoon of dish detergent all over the head, worked the soap throughout the head, rinsed the head THOROUGHLY, shook it outside to A) remove the water and B)get the "fluff" back, brought it back inside and propped it up to completely dry. Next day, it was all clean and fluffy. :-)

The handle/Motor just wipe off with a little soap and water then down the Frother part. Rinse off the Frother with a quick spin under clean water.

I lay the mop head (red side down) on the floor and place the mop on it and gently press. It sticks with a velcro-like system and really works well! No slippage or rolling off. Once in place, it stays in place until you pull it off.

Yes, that is what makes is so nice. Pull it off throw it in dryer, air dry and press it back on to mop for next time

It has to be a mop with a screw on at the bottom to accommodate the mop head. I hope that helps.

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.

Try to lightly hold the handle but allow it to spin with the mop instead of holding the handle still. Should help with that.

Stand on the edges of the mop and pull up then just push down hard of the brush. I hope this helps.

Don't squeeze the lever all the time. Use fan after you mop and when done, sit it in the plastic holding area. If you see that the floor is really wet, you can stop to trigger the handle and just mop the floor. Hope this helps.

I bought the complete mop locally and had to order the mop heads here. I would order the mop with a few mop heads at the same time. I love this product! The mop head can be removed and thrown into the washer. I hope this product never goes away.
