Can you tell me if the mop heads are interchangeable? If I buy the old system and just use a clean water bucket will the blue mop head fit the old handle?
I'm a house cleaner so I little tip so you don't run out of water so fast... when you put your mop in to get it wet when you pull it up before spinning it let the water drain off a bit so it's not dripping wet before spinning it. You save on water big time!!
And you can also not soak it that much and then just put it strait on your floor. I also noticed she uses a concentrated cleaner and way to much of it. So that is going to leave a residue on her floor.
Yeah I was wondering about that I think it would be a benefit if they would put two spinners in there so that when you dip your cleaned mop into the fresh water you could spin that water off right back into the clean water instead of into the dirty water cuz you're just wasting I don't see why they couldn't put spinners on both parts
We've been using a small plastic trash can in the single spin mop bucket for about 3 years. As the clean water empties and the dirty water fills, the little trash can floats up. Awesome mop!
THANK YOU! 😩 I just got through watching three other VERY frustrating videos on how to use this product, and your presentation is hands down the best one. Thank you, for keeping your presentation simple, thorough, and preventing me from throwing my phone against the wall. Great job! 👍🏾
I love that you compared both the old and the new in one video and even gave a tip for using the old like the new. I didn't have to go all over youtube watching multiple videos. I'm confident after just this one video which mop I want to buy now.
Professional housecleaner here. Just buy 2 plain buckets. Any brand.$1-5 each. Buy any twist mop. $10 Done. One bucket with plain water, another with solution. Keep solution, change plain water often. Do not double dip into dirty water. That is how we clean floors.
Yeah but what if some of us don’t have time for all of that? 🤷🏾♀️ Ever since I bought this new ocedar mop I’ve started enjoying mopping again because I don’t have to spend so much time doing that particular chore.
I have used the spin mop for a couple of years now, and only thought briefly about putting the dirty mop into the clean water and spinning the water out to continue cleaning my ceramic tile. My tile, by the way, is colored so that if it IS dirty, it doesn't look dirty (if that makes sense). I saw this video and thought, damn, I'm just mopping my floor with dirty water. So I used the 2 bucket system and I can't believe how much cleaner my floor looks!! I bought extra mop heads, so I won't be buying the new system. Thanks for the demo and research and review on this product! Cheers!
Girl, thank you for showing us that cheap alternative! I have the original O'Cedar and after I moped with it the first time I was like, "CRAP!" I immediately regretted that I didn't get the new system. I have plenty of ol' regla-degla buckets in my house, though. lol
You can get a small bucket at dollar tree to fit on other side to put in clean water and solution. But again the mop absorbs lots of the water and to me, it does wring I out enough. Need wheels
I purchased the rinse clean mop and excited to use it. I noticed dipping mop into dirty water was the main issue with the original but after thinking about, we've always placed dirty mop into dirty water during the traditional mopping process without the spin option. I am mainly excited about the rinse feature. Thank you for sharing!
That's most likely because you weren't mopping correctly. You should first be laying down a layer of clean mop water with or without a solution. You will then go back over the wet floor to pick up the dirty water. Your water should not get that dirty unless you're immediately picking up the dirty water and putting it into the clean water.
“Battle Of The Spin Mops //Old Ocedar Mop Vs New Rinse Clean..” This was a very helpful comparison video..Thank you! I recently purchased the Ocedar Rinse clean mop and I wanted to be sure I was using the compartments correctly. Also I wondered if I should have purchased the original Ocedar Mop. After watching your instructional video I realized I wanted to keep it instead of exchanging it for the original Ocedar mop and bucket system. Good video 👍. I really appreciate the time you took to post it.
I use a swiffer...multiple rags cut to fit...bucket of mop water with rags.1.wring rag 2.place on swiffer 3.mop small portion 4.place dirty rag in empty bucket 5.repeat till done 6.throw dirty rags in wash...done🙂
I do the two bucket trick as well. I have a utility/painters bucket that has a flat side. Fits into the o cedar bucket perfectly. Depending on the size of the area you are mopping, you can keep a pitcher of hot water close by to do a spin rinse before you dunk your mop back into the solution. It’s a good system. The original one. For a homeowner, it works great.
Isn't that how the 2 bucket system works? Soak mop in clean water with solution. Spin. Mop. Put mop into extra bucket with clean water. Spin. Put mop into clean water with solution. Spin. Mop. Repeat.
@@CinHalCedHerChance the ocedar bucket catches the spin off. When you first use the mop, the mop gets grimy. Instead of dunking a dirty mop back into the solution bucket, people give it a rinse, a spin, then mop again. The solution water stays “cleaner” and doesn’t get as contaminated from dunking a dirty mop into it after swiping it around on the floor. The two bucket system is great. You get more life out of your cleaning solution.
After watching several video's this one hits all the good and bad points and most especially a work around to keep from spending another $50. Well Done!
omg you are so smart! Thank you thank you thank you. I literally just bought the older version and didn't realize they came out with something new. So this helps me feel better about the older version with the bigger spinner. In fact I MISSED my old Joy bucket cause it's so comfortable to hold and carry. So this is a perfect excuse to keep using mine.
The best in my opinion; get two of the old spin-mop bucket. One with water for rinsing the dirty mop and wring out, 2nd bucket with clean water with cleaning fluid. Just like 2 bucket car wash method.
You can even put that second bucket directly into the first bucket and it will still keep the dirty water so l separated from the clean water without you having to lug two separate buckets everywhere.
Yeees !!... someone who hacked the new epensive system like I did... The only difference is I found a cheap dollar store bucket that fit inside the spin bucket (one that does not quite touches the bottom of the spin bucket) I poked a few holes in the thin dollar store bucket to make a slow leak so that some of the dirty water drips down when the mop goes in for more water... I use half a bucket of water at a time and add water to the dollar store bucket as needed. Its good for about a bucket and a half before having to empty the dirty water.. This hack has minimized mopping with dirty water and Im not stuck with 2 expensive mopping systems. Im so glad you gave your opinion and hacked this! We pay so much for mopping systems that maybe we really dont need to... thanks
I love my original spin mop. I purchased one to give as a gift to a cousin but my wife said don't give a mop as a Christmas gift so I still have it. I'm gonna try your "tip" and use the second spin mop bucket for "clean" water and my old spin mop bucket for dirty rinse water!
Thank you stacie for the trasnparent and honest review. I was so confused about what to get and now thanks to you, i'm getting the old one with a big ol bucket so i never run out of clean water so fast. p.s: yes I'm a weirdo male who's crazy about cleanliness
@@ronudelson3825 idk about fucked up... The new one's cleaning head is much smaller than the old one. Plus it doesn't really rinse the shitty mop out with that tiny bit of water
Great review. Nice comparison. Although this is small, you could have mentioned the mop handle holder on the new system. Now you don't have to lean the handle against the wall when you are not using it. Hope that makes sense.
Just got the new ocedar As a birthday present.. Yes I asked for a mop for my birthday . I turned 28 .. I have 4 kids and a german shepherd... no one will understand how happy I was when I opened that gift . Lol before I had a bucket from target and a mop from ross ... lasted 6 months and still going ... I would put hot boiling water with pinesol and a splash of ariel liquid detergent.. mop a section , then the mop to the tub and rinse out the mop with the hottest water that comes out of my tub faucet, and then with my clean rinsed mop put it back in the mop water and back and forth and back forth .... it was alot of work . But efficient.
Thank you! Best review yet, and I've watched a lot trying to figure out which of the two mops to buy. I appreciate your real, intelligent opinions about things that are not optimal. I loved your workarounds/suggestions (the 2nd bucket!). I hope you get paid somehow because it's clear how much time, energy, and high-quality video production you put into your review.
I rinse the mop head under the faucet and ring it out before I put it back into the mopping solution (white vinegar, a little soap, and hot water.) I much prefer the traditional "deck mob" made with cotton fiber because the "hip" at the top of the mop provides a very sturdy area to use to scrub up tough spots (e.g. spilled & dried spaghetti sauce or drips of oil that have collected dirt.) The more flimsy new mops have a hard plastic top with is useless for scrubbing spots that need a little extra oomph.
I agree, but my 10 year olds struggle with the twist mops and they need to learn to mops. I'm 39 and have never not used a trad cotton mops. I hate the plastic on these. I use that cotton ball at the top of regular mops to clean baseboards and walls. With this kind of mop, you have to use the same surface you're using on the floor on that wall... which feels like I'm making it dirtier.
Oh my goodness I wish I had seen this 2 weeks ago! I agree, bucket reservoir too small! Plus when I pump the new one it wobbles, making me think it's going to tip over. I was just able to mop my small kitchen before water ran out. I will probably give the new one to my son and use your trick and keep my original. Had I seen this video first, I would have saved myself $45! Thank you for reviewing!
You know what works best for me...I buy the regular spin mop...then fill a Orange bucket or blue 5gal bucket from HD or LW with clean hot water with cleaner/scent... dip mop in clean water and ring out in O-Cedar OG spin mop bucket...same result bot you have 5gal of clean water to use! Just dump the dirty water from O-cedar!
Thanks for your review. I have a big garage job. I was going to steam clean it with my steam mop, but it really was not doing the trick. So I went down to Home Depot and bought the O'cedar Rinse Clean mop. I want more water on the concreate floor for this job. So I will not be wringing the clean water out of the mop before I start mopping. I will put some cleaner in the clean water to cut through what I need to mop through. I'll let the soapy clean water sit on the concrete for a few minutes before I do a strong mopping. I watched a few videos on this because I needed to learn how to fill it properly. I'm all set to go. BTW, I liked your video the best.
Hi I'm a professional house cleaner as well. Really liked the Ocedar spin mop at a clients house and asked for one for Christmas. Lovely people picked up the new Rinse Clean model. Thanks very much for the instructions of how to use, it didn't come with any. Question - after pouring cleaning water out, how do you get all the water out of blue bucket plus how do you dry it?
I have the original bucket. I use a fresh batch of cleaning water for each room but I make a smaller batch. Then I go back with one bucket of just water to rinse all the rooms. It's easier for me to lift and dump the half bucket full any way and it's still faster and easier than a traditional mop. Plus it doesn't hurt my bad back. I wish the mop came with a longer pole option because I'm tall and everyone in my house is tall. I'm the shortest at 5'9.
I just bought the clean rinse system. I like the fact that it spins the water. It cost more than I thought but it's better than regular mopping system I feel.
Thank you for this review. I'm a commercial guy and I was curious if these actually worked. I clean a steel mill and the problem I usually have is my hot water gets cold and I end up changing it out so the degreaser can do a better job. O cedar is a very creative company but I just don't think their stuff would hold up in a commercial environment.
We used them in a warehouse and found that they really didn't hold up well at all. We switched to only kitchen and bathroom use for which they are great. The mopheads kept popping off after washing them in a machine washer because they lost the secure attachment to the mop head. The actual mop handle isn't super sturdy either, and one broke. Lastly, the bucket foot level kept breaking and we would have to buy another one. It just wasn't meant for that type of surface area, level of grime, or frequency of use. I have one at my home though, and it is great for the day to day home cleaning.
Thanks for the video. I have started using a bucket of clean water and then using the spin mop system to wring out the excess dirty water. Something of a pain given my bad back but it does give me the clean water I need.
I noticed your grout. I just finished making mine look brand new. Grouteez. The kit comes with the cleaner and then the sealer. You do not have to get on your hands and knees. It comes with a tough brush that you connect to a telescoping pole. Stuff is fantastic. I do not want to replace the floors because they look like new again. To spread the sealer it is easy with a cup and a small foam brush.
I love my Cedar Mop. I use to HATE mopping floors but now I don’t mind at all. I do believe I could use more water than I have been using. Thank you for your advice.
I wanted the newer one but I’m glad I looked at this review. I’m just going to get a bucket from the dollar tree and put on the other side. Now I know why they don’t sell the newer one in my area whatsoever.
The dirty bucket can hold a ton of volume, more so than the clean bin. For quick cleans I just fill the main bucket with my solution mix, then open the red tab so that it fills half back into the resovoir and then close it again. Filling from the little hole can be tedious. You can fill both the open resovoir AND the inner container right off the bat as well. So after doing the above, I just top both off for larger cleans.
Yes, I had the same exact issues with this mop bucket that's why I wanted to check out some videos to see if maybe I was doing something wrong, but it's not me it's a flaw in the design! Thank you, I feel better now that I'm not a complete idiot!😂
My old spin mop had broken and they don't sell the actual mop separately so I got the new system and I really like it the small wringer was also a bit of an annoyance for me but I really like how the clean water stays fresh and HOT, definitely worth it as a first purchase or needing a new mop like me but not needed if you already have a mop you like.
I thought of using the extra bucket as well. The ring mops get caught in the mechanism and now you have to touch the dirty mop to unhook the twisted strings. Due to my ocd I mop a few times a day. I would get this so I can clean my walls with the extra head. On a different note why dump water in the sink when there's a toilet?
Extremely helpful, one observation and not sure if already commented - the old system final water being darker tho same floor cleaned makes sense since in the blue system it’s getting filled with unused water each time wrung. Thank you!!
Absolutely agree. The old system is better I mopped my entire kitchen and dining room floors with the old spin bucket and mop set. I washed the floors 3x at first til the water poured out clear and I knew my floors were clean. I love my spin mop. O Cedar is my favorite because I don’t have to wring it out by hand and The squeeze mops don’t really work well. Hot water is key ❤ I washed my floor with hot water and dawn dish soap ❤ my favorite ❤️
I personally found the best way to mop (I have several pets) is similar to washing a car; presoak (especially in the kitchen), wipe, and follow with a 2 bucket system (warm rinse water and warm soapy water) to finish it off. You can go in and mop again for a deep clean and polish it off afterwards, but I avoid polish due to it building up in low traffic areas. I find it much more efficient and cost effective than mopping as with the normal method as I'd have to exchange the water up to a dozen times rather than filling up 2-3 buckets, plus the idea of spreading bathroom gunk to the rest of the house freaked me out.
I’ve had the spin mop for like idk 8 yrs or so. I’ve been using a second bucket for years but I started using 2 extra buckets. I bought the new one because I needed a new mop handle. This will be awesome for me. The reservoir will hold my rinse water and my second bucket will hold my clean water with solution in it. I love it
Thank you so much. I have the old system and I really do like it a lot. I am going to try your hack as I really do not want to spend $50 on a new system. I am really glad I came across your video.
I'm curious (& confused) about the difference in the dirty water comparison when you poured them out. Wouldn't it mean that the new system doesn't clean as well if the dirty water that dumped out was "cleaner" looking than the dirty water from the original system? I would think that both systems should have the same dirty water, one shouldn't be cleaner than the other, unless it's not actually cleaning as well. My husband just bought the new system and it seems a bit pointless that you are just putting a dirty mop into the clean water side. I get that you can spin some of the mess from the floor into the dirty side, but not much considering the mop head was already spun/wrung out before using it on the dirty floor. They really should have come up with a 3 chamber system so the dirty mop head could be "rinsed" then spun and then placed in the clean water side. Or maybe I'm overthinking it.
This! I completely agree. Unless there are 3 chambers, so the mop can actually be rinsed in between, it seems pointless to me. I just mop the regular way, with the original, and change out the water when it starts to look dirty. I’m not eating off the floor, so it is good enough. 🤷♀️
Hey! Thanks for sharing bc i bought one of those rinse clean ocedar today from Lowes but it's still in the 📦 but after watching your video! I will be trying it out soon! Everything has pros&cons😊👍🏽
Honestly what works for me is Scott brite mop that comes removable cloths And I buy a bunch so I use one new per room so I have to worry about mopping with dirty water or dirty mop. Then finish with a steam mop bcuz I never knew how much dirt is left behind even when I was mopping with hot water.
This was very instructive. Am considering the new RinseClean spin mop system, but I think I'll wait until they enlarge/improve the spin side mechanism. This has been a pretty common observation/complaint on Instagram and RUclips reviews, so I figure they'll address it soon. I wish they had a more convenient filling system that didn't require a dead lift of 12 pounds of water😂. Maybe an optional detachable fill hose of some sort?
When you compared the two water samples from both systems, you should have done it w/o any cleaning solution to get a vivid idea of what the water looks like reusing the "dirtier" water.
This was GREAT! I almost bought the new & improved one, even though I have the original. Your tip at the end was perfect. However, I got confused in the beginning because 1) you were talking really fast & 2) your demos of taking the mop from one side to the other were slightly choppy to show your step-by-step actions in order. But overall, I was well informed as to what I needed by the end.
Probably best to add tiny amounts of cleaning solution into the open air part of the blue bucket instead of into the closed part of the blue bucket if we want to avoid issues trying to dry/ foam
I just use my original o’cedar mop I bought about May 2022 and the water doesn’t get that dirty. When I clean the grout I use Simple Green and a grout brush from Amazon. I do change the water about five times because I want my grout to be white.
Honest question is it a thing to mop barefoot? . I’m only asking because I have not done this and most of the floor mopping videos are with people barefoot Thanks
I have seen someone only adding a little bit of clean water each time so you don’t fillet and then spin it out you only get the amount you need in there and then spin the excess dirty water out. Hope it helps
Just got one (Rinse Clean) delivered from Amazon I have pets and needed something that will really do the job! I do have to say that WHEELS on the bottom of the bucket would have been very helpful though

I use that cotton ball at the top of regular mops to clean baseboards and walls. With this kind of mop, you have to use the same surface you're using on the floor on that wall... which feels like I'm making it dirtier.
Oh my goodness I wish I had seen this 2 weeks ago! I agree, bucket reservoir too small! Plus when I pump the new one it wobbles, making me think it's going to tip over. I was just able to mop my small kitchen before water ran out. I will probably give the new one to my son and use your trick and keep my original. Had I seen this video first, I would have saved myself $45! Thank you for reviewing!
You know what works best for me...I buy the regular spin mop...then fill a Orange bucket or blue 5gal bucket from HD or LW with clean hot water with cleaner/scent... dip mop in clean water and ring out in O-Cedar OG spin mop bucket...same result bot you have 5gal of clean water to use! Just dump the dirty water from O-cedar!
Just bought one at Target last night, before I saw this. Thank you for the awesome review. I'm happy with my choice now 🤘
That was a great, informative video. I love the end when she shows you how to make the original Ocedar bucket like the new one, Good Job!
Thanks for your review. I have a big garage job. I was going to steam clean it with my steam mop, but it really was not doing the trick. So I went down to Home Depot and bought the O'cedar Rinse Clean mop. I want more water on the concreate floor for this job. So I will not be wringing the clean water out of the mop before I start mopping. I will put some cleaner in the clean water to cut through what I need to mop through. I'll let the soapy clean water sit on the concrete for a few minutes before I do a strong mopping. I watched a few videos on this because I needed to learn how to fill it properly. I'm all set to go. BTW, I liked your video the best.
Hi I'm a professional house cleaner as well. Really liked the Ocedar spin mop at a clients house and asked for one for Christmas. Lovely people picked up the new Rinse Clean model.
Thanks very much for the instructions of how to use, it didn't come with any.
Question - after pouring cleaning water out, how do you get all the water out of blue bucket plus how do you dry it?
The instructions were printed on the bottom of the box! Just let the valve and blue tab open on the blue bucket so it can air dry.
I have the original bucket. I use a fresh batch of cleaning water for each room but I make a smaller batch. Then I go back with one bucket of just water to rinse all the rooms. It's easier for me to lift and dump the half bucket full any way and it's still faster and easier than a traditional mop. Plus it doesn't hurt my bad back. I wish the mop came with a longer pole option because I'm tall and everyone in my house is tall. I'm the shortest at 5'9.
You can order a replacement handle on Amazon which is longer. Saved me.
This is a good tip thank you!!
I just bought the clean rinse system. I like the fact that it spins the water. It cost more than I thought but it's better than regular mopping system I feel.
you yap way 2 much
Thanks for the review. I saw this extra bucket idea on “Do it on a Dime”. I love my spin mop and will totally use the clean water bucket method now!
I have the old system. I think I will buy a separate bucket dip in the clean water and use the cedar to wring and keep the dirty water!
My mom who is 87 got a spin mop a few months ago and she loves it. I have decided I'm getting one too.
I just bought this new rinse clean mop. I absolutely love it. Thanks for the tips!
Thank you for this review. I'm a commercial guy and I was curious if these actually worked. I clean a steel mill and the problem I usually have is my hot water gets cold and I end up changing it out so the degreaser can do a better job. O cedar is a very creative company but I just don't think their stuff would hold up in a commercial environment.
We used them in a warehouse and found that they really didn't hold up well at all. We switched to only kitchen and bathroom use for which they are great. The mopheads kept popping off after washing them in a machine washer because they lost the secure attachment to the mop head. The actual mop handle isn't super sturdy either, and one broke. Lastly, the bucket foot level kept breaking and we would have to buy another one. It just wasn't meant for that type of surface area, level of grime, or frequency of use. I have one at my home though, and it is great for the day to day home cleaning.
You want a commercial mop, have to buy a commercial mop. These are clearly made for home use.
@@binaboop1 I'm guessing that you have a larger area to cover in a warehouse. What kind of mop do you use?
Thanks for the video. I have started using a bucket of clean water and then using the spin mop system to wring out the excess dirty water. Something of a pain given my bad back but it does give me the clean water I need.
I noticed your grout. I just finished making mine look brand new. Grouteez. The kit comes with the cleaner and then the sealer. You do not have to get on your hands and knees. It comes with a tough brush that you connect to a telescoping pole. Stuff is fantastic. I do not want to replace the floors because they look like new again. To spread the sealer it is easy with a cup and a small foam brush.
I love my Cedar Mop. I use to HATE mopping floors but now I don’t mind at all. I do believe I could use more water than I have been using. Thank you for your advice.
Girrrrrl you have done it now! I'm starting to mop right now. I grabbing a extra bucket and start cleaning, yea!
I like the second bucket idea, thanks for the review! 👍
I wanted the newer one but I’m glad I looked at this review. I’m just going to get a bucket from the dollar tree and put on the other side. Now I know why they don’t sell the newer one in my area whatsoever.
The dirty bucket can hold a ton of volume, more so than the clean bin.
For quick cleans I just fill the main bucket with my solution mix, then open the red tab so that it fills half back into the resovoir and then close it again. Filling from the little hole can be tedious.
You can fill both the open resovoir AND the inner container right off the bat as well. So after doing the above, I just top both off for larger cleans.
Yes, I had the same exact issues with this mop bucket that's why I wanted to check out some videos to see if maybe I was doing something wrong, but it's not me it's a flaw in the design! Thank you, I feel better now that I'm not a complete idiot!😂
Brilliant hack with the older mop system (which I use and love). Will be doing this!
Just got the new one. Amazing! Love the fact that I’m not cleaning with dirty water.
I just purchased the o cedar spin mop I love it. I have a 4 bedroom house
I just purchased the O' Cedar Rinse and Clean System. I found your review to be very helpful. Thank you
My old spin mop had broken and they don't sell the actual mop separately so I got the new system and I really like it the small wringer was also a bit of an annoyance for me but I really like how the clean water stays fresh and HOT, definitely worth it as a first purchase or needing a new mop like me but not needed if you already have a mop you like.
First time spin mop shopper-lol , glad I watched .
I found a small narrow bucket from Menards that fit right into the O'cedar bucket and it works fine.
Very thorough review, thank you. You gave me a very realistic expectation about the product.
Well done good comparesion like that you did the demonstration using the old system as well
I thought of using the extra bucket as well. The ring mops get caught in the mechanism and now you have to touch the dirty mop to unhook the twisted strings. Due to my ocd I mop a few times a day. I would get this so I can clean my walls with the extra head.
On a different note why dump water in the sink when there's a toilet?
Why use a toilet when there's a sink?
Sink makes it easier to rinse out.
Right always toilet. Lower to lift to plus why pour discusting water in sink. Toilet.
This was very helpful. I am going to buy a spin mop so I was researching which one was better. Thank you so much!
Thanks for the review, it solve some questions about the product.
Best review. Answered all my questions.
Great idea the seconds options!!! Thank you m
Extremely helpful, one observation and not sure if already commented - the old system final water being darker tho same floor cleaned makes sense since in the blue system it’s getting filled with unused water each time wrung. Thank you!!
I did the same, just added a 2nd bucket. I had just talked myself into buying the original system then the 2nd came out. Works great
Absolutely agree. The old system is better I mopped my entire kitchen and dining room floors with the old spin bucket and mop set. I washed the floors 3x at first til the water poured out clear and I knew my floors were clean.
I love my spin mop. O Cedar is my favorite because I don’t have to wring it out by hand and The squeeze mops don’t really work well.
Hot water is key ❤
I washed my floor with hot water and dawn dish soap ❤ my favorite ❤️
Thanks. I'm getting the clean water mop today
Your review was very thorough. Glad I checked out the o cedar further. Thanks ❣️
Good correction on "well trafficked." That was funny. Thanks.
Same!
This was very thorough and informatives for the prospective buyer thank you very good video
I personally found the best way to mop (I have several pets) is similar to washing a car; presoak (especially in the kitchen), wipe, and follow with a 2 bucket system (warm rinse water and warm soapy water) to finish it off. You can go in and mop again for a deep clean and polish it off afterwards, but I avoid polish due to it building up in low traffic areas. I find it much more efficient and cost effective than mopping as with the normal method as I'd have to exchange the water up to a dozen times rather than filling up 2-3 buckets, plus the idea of spreading bathroom gunk to the rest of the house freaked me out.
Thank you! great review, detailed and with a super idea for using an extra bucket with the original system.
I’ve had the spin mop for like idk 8 yrs or so. I’ve been using a second bucket for years but I started using 2 extra buckets. I bought the new one because I needed a new mop handle. This will be awesome for me. The reservoir will hold my rinse water and my second bucket will hold my clean water with solution in it. I love it
Thanks for the idea, since I already have a spinmop.
Thank you so much. I have the old system and I really do like it a lot. I am going to try your hack as I really do not want to spend $50 on a new system. I am really glad I came across your video.
Love how thorough this review was!!
Best video I’ve seen so far, I just bought the original
I'm curious (& confused) about the difference in the dirty water comparison when you poured them out. Wouldn't it mean that the new system doesn't clean as well if the dirty water that dumped out was "cleaner" looking than the dirty water from the original system? I would think that both systems should have the same dirty water, one shouldn't be cleaner than the other, unless it's not actually cleaning as well. My husband just bought the new system and it seems a bit pointless that you are just putting a dirty mop into the clean water side. I get that you can spin some of the mess from the floor into the dirty side, but not much considering the mop head was already spun/wrung out before using it on the dirty floor. They really should have come up with a 3 chamber system so the dirty mop head could be "rinsed" then spun and then placed in the clean water side. Or maybe I'm overthinking it.
I thought that too
Not over thinking at all! I was thinking the same!
This! I completely agree. Unless there are 3 chambers, so the mop can actually be rinsed in between, it seems pointless to me. I just mop the regular way, with the original, and change out the water when it starts to look dirty. I’m not eating off the floor, so it is good enough. 🤷♀️
She should have shown the color of the water from the clean water reservoir, since a dirty mop kept getting dipped into it.
Your not that is why I never bought the new one I have two of the old ones and a regular bucket to clean my floors
I love your suggestion for the alternative.
Hey! Thanks for sharing bc i bought one of those rinse clean ocedar today from Lowes but it's still in the 📦 but after watching your video! I will be trying it out soon! Everything has pros&cons😊👍🏽
Honestly what works for me is Scott brite mop that comes removable cloths And I buy a bunch so I use one new per room so I have to worry about mopping with dirty water or dirty mop. Then finish with a steam mop bcuz I never knew how much dirt is left behind even when I was mopping with hot water.
I don't use that brand but I use a different mop head for every room I have 4 dogs and OCD lol
This was very instructive. Am considering the new RinseClean spin mop system, but I think I'll wait until they enlarge/improve the spin side mechanism. This has been a pretty common observation/complaint on Instagram and RUclips reviews, so I figure they'll address it soon. I wish they had a more convenient filling system that didn't require a dead lift of 12 pounds of water😂. Maybe an optional detachable fill hose of some sort?
Just cut a used hose long enough to go from sink faucet to the bucket on the floor....easy peasy.
and wheels that thing is heavy for seniors trying to mop their floors!
Thank you for the tip on the original mop👍🙋♀️
Thank you for the review I personally like the new blue one myself
Nice job, that trick you shared is a really great idea too, thank you.
Thanks for letting us know this trick!!! I was wanting the new one but don’t have to get it thanks to you!!!
When you compared the two water samples from both systems, you should have done it w/o any cleaning solution to get a vivid idea of what the water looks like reusing the "dirtier" water.
Great idea ! I always put it I. The bathtub to wash off then I put it in the bucket but I’m going to use your hack yey ! 👏🏻👏🏻
This was GREAT! I almost bought the new & improved one, even though I have the original. Your tip at the end was perfect. However, I got confused in the beginning because 1) you were talking really fast & 2) your demos of taking the mop from one side to the other were slightly choppy to show your step-by-step actions in order. But overall, I was well informed as to what I needed by the end.
Probably best to add tiny amounts of cleaning solution into the open air part of the blue bucket instead of into the closed part of the blue bucket if we want to avoid issues trying to dry/ foam
I just use my original o’cedar mop I bought about May 2022 and the water doesn’t get that dirty. When I clean the grout I use Simple Green and a grout brush from Amazon. I do change the water about five times because I want my grout to be white.
Can you try the JOY MOOP OR JOY MOP please ???
Honest question is it a thing to mop barefoot? . I’m only asking because I have not done this and most of the floor mopping videos are with people barefoot Thanks
i had both -loved the old one then used the new one once and i knew i had to return it.
THANKS FOR THE INFO 👍🏼👍🏼 House sitting for my daughter was so confused about to use their New O Cedar Mop now I know 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 HAPPY NEW YEAR 🥳🥳🥳
I have seen someone only adding a little bit of clean water each time so you don’t fillet and then spin it out you only get the amount you need in there and then spin the excess dirty water out. Hope it helps
EXACTLY! Everyone here is overlooking the THIRD chamber for that reason.
I found the newer O Cedar rinse clean to be better than the old quickwring one.
I really appreciate this video as I'm gonna get a spin mop
Love the hack you shared with us. Thank you!!!
Just got one (Rinse Clean) delivered from Amazon I have pets and needed something that will really do the job! I do have to say that WHEELS on the bottom of the bucket would have been very helpful though
Thanks im honna try the old bucket method
Thanks for your tips on hack at the end of this video it's going to help me so much plus save some money.
