This vs. Rubbermaid Spray Mop How do they compare?
2037929
I'm looking to buy this one as it is made in America and they insure me they have policies in place to avoid human trafficking, and they do not test on animals. I originally got the Rubbermaid product, but it was defective, and I have been having a hard time getting it replaced/refunded. Been about two months now. Plus it is made in China, which I didn't know, as I try to avoid products made in China. This product is made in the USA.

I just bought a Libman from Target and love it. The bottle takes a good pull to get it out but it isn't difficult. Lid snaps back on tight- no leaks and a good spray. I'm mostly using it in a small kitchen so the larger head size isn't too much of a factor. I haven't seen a Rubbermaid to compare side by side. I haven't washed the pad yet to see how that goes but if it is an issue I'll figure something out. I was wondering if the Rubbermaid pads would work on the Libman mop?

I'm comparing too, but haven't used either yet. So far I am leaning toward Libman simply because it is made in America (although the pads are from Indonesia...). Rubbermaid and O-Cedar are both made in China.

I have the Rubbermaid and I love it. The reason I went for it was the bigger pad - I have a lot of cleaning area, but it might not fit behind a toliet. The pad is thick and holds a lot of fluid. If I were you, I'd compare the pads of each product and see which you'd prefer to be scrubbing with. It's really the only difference.

I went through 3 rubbermaid mops before I discovered the Libman freedom spray mop at walmart. So far this seems sturdier. Sams stopped selling the rubbermaid one due to high returns. The o cedar one has a small pad so I did not even consider buying that one.

I have the rubbermaid reveal. I purchased the reveal over the Libman freedom because of the larger pad size. My spray trigger stopped working properly after about a month or so. I have to squeeze the trigger like 6-7 times to get enough fluid.

Is there a mop that is both refillable in terms of liquid, in which you can use your own mixture, while having the convenience of disposable pads? It just isn't sanitary to wash pads in the machine where you put your clothing.

Funny you should ask... I ordered the Smart Living Steam Mop, but got the Express and was totally confused about why the packaging and name was different from what I thought I had ordered. The unit and its parts look similar, I've been using it, and it seems to work well enough, but I wouldn't have paid this much for it if I had known because the only reason I spent the $$$ on this was because someone recommended the Smart Living Steam Mop. The other answers here are mixed. Is it or is it not the same company/vacuum?

I don't agree with Tony, as I clean condos at a resort and have used the rubbermaid one for over a year a lot. I like this one. If your talking about the bona you have to screw the handle together, right there I think it's not going to be as sturdy, but then I haven't used it.

If you are referring to a Swiffer wet jet, they are too different kinds of mops, I use the big wooly for dust and dog/ cat hair. I use the Swiffer for wet cleaning. the big wooly is a dry mop

I like it much better. I think it does a better job cleaning the floor including picking up dog hair. I used to change the Swiffer pad several times while dust mopping, with Big Wooly can do all my wood floors before shaking it. I can do the job quicker and better.

The comparisons I made were based on what I needed in a cleaner and the price. I chose this model because of the lift-off feature, pet cleaning equipment and because its a deep cleaner. The price was great in comparison to store and other on-line prices, and free shipping with Amazon. I'm very happy with my choice around. Hope this helps.

I own both, and I like both for different reasons. The BB mold is much more stable than this one, but this one is easier to unmold, since you can push the soaps out individually (invert each cube to push it out), while the BB mold requires you to loosen up each side around the cube before it lets loose. As others have mentioned, if you use this one, you *really* have to have something under it before you can move it - it will flop all over the place, spilling soap everywhere. I make CP soap.

Roomba cleans much better but costs more. I have run them side by side (Roomba 650 next to the MR6550) and for picking up dog hair and dirt the Roomba does a noticeably better job. Same with paper shreddings.

As far as I can ascertain it is exactly the same model. I have purchased on Amazon, Bed Bath & Beyond (an extra mop) and Lowe's (extra mop heads) and my take is that they are all the same. I cannot imagine how hard you would have to scrub your floor to break the mop. I'm thinking maybe those who have had theirs break need to clean a little more often. Just a thought. So far I really love mine and no longer use anything else. My floors gleam -- even with 8 indoor cats!

The spray mop is pump hand operated. PS Its the best mop I've ever bought. You will LOVE it.

I have always used microfiber regular mop. Consult the manufacturer if you are going to use with anything else to be on the safe side.

What is the difference between a standard and sweep spray? I am not sure which one I have.

I am sorry I do not know the difference - I didn't even know there were 2 different dust mops. I wish I could help. I do know I really like the one I bought - it does a good job and it is easy to use.

Hi, the spray is not as aggressive as the wash as far as the pressure that comes out, it doesn't come out as fast, which I prefer personally. Both work very well, I have gotten both for friends, who live by it now. I also feel the spray lasts longer, which could be due to the fact that not as much fluid comes out when using it. I hope this helps! I think it's really a question of preference because both are extremely effective. Let me know if you have any other questions!

I have used both the 32 oz bottles and the mop tablets. They are different tablets. The drop and mop bucket tablets are a bigger tablet. I have broken the drop and mop tablets up and used them in a bottle when I've run out of the others without any adverse consequences. The mop tablets are a different texture...they seem grainier - almost like laundry soap tablets like we used to buy a long time ago while the bottle tablets are less grainy.

Hoover customer service said the difference is that this new model has a wood floor scrubber and a tile/grout scrubber. the previous version had only one type of scrubber.

I can't tell you what the differences are as I am not acquainted with those models. However I love the one I have. It has plenty of power and is very user friendly. Switches easily for different cleaning needs. I have no regrets with this vacuum.
