ORIGINAL REVIEW - LEFT 11/11/2015 I finally broke down and purchased this. I've been looking at this since February, 2015 and here it is November, 2015. My old spin mop (a brand that I purchased from QVC) finally started leaking badly. Frankly, I hate spending this amount of money for a spin mop w/bucket, but I could tell from the pictures and the feedback that this is quality product. I like the fact that a representative from the company (Anthony?) addresses issues/complaints. I have absolutely no problem with revising a review should a situation change -- I'm dating this review, in the event I should need to change it. So, I got my CycloMop delivery today - Two days early! Yay! -- Great Job, Seller -- That and the awesome packaging with awesome directions got you 5 stars on your Seller Review. Onto the product Review... Again, the directions were awesome. They were in color and step-by-step. But truly, I didn't need them (I did glance at them, though) , because I had reviewed your videos and the product is very simple. If I hadn't reviewed your product (or used a spin mop before), then I would have needed to refer to the directions. The mop, is far superior to the other spin-mop that I'm getting to throw away. You can tell by the weight of the mop itself and the length of the fibers on the mophead. The spin-mop that I'm getting ready to throw away feels as though it could bend if too much downward pressure were placed on it. The CycloMop is much, much more sturdy -- of course, time will tell, but I have a feeling that it will hold up very well. Nice Grips on the CycloMop as compared to the old Spin-Mop. The Bucket and its internal Spin mechanism: Heavy Duty... The old Spin-Mop (yeah, the one going in the trash) is made of thin blue plastic that gives when pushed by hand - the handle is somewhat flimsy. Seriously, this CycloMop is like a Mack Truck compared to a Yugo to my old Spin-Mop system. The internal Spinhead in the bucket on my old Spin-Mop was getting stripped, so it wasn't engaging the mop-head well...I really had to work it to get it to engage. I don't know if this will be a problem with the CycloMop....What I do know is that my own behavior (with the old mop), when I put the mop into the bucket, I didn't ensure the mophead was properly engaged onto the Spin mechanism, then spinning probably caused the the mechanism to start stripping. I paid alot of money for the CycloMop, so I'll take the time to ensure that I properly engage before spinning. Hey, it is a cause and effect world that we live in. I am extremely pleased with my purchase, even though it hurt in my pocket-book. But, if it prevents me from having to make other purchases down the road, then I have saved money. So far, I've used it twice today. I have two old dogs that have accidents. Anthony... I do have an idea for you that would be an add-on for people like me that have old dogs that they need to clean-up after their accidents. If you are interested in hearing, leave me a message.
