Best Mops & Buckets

Biggest waste of money – Biggest rip off I have ever seen. Doesn't do go at any speed, can't push as motor will stop. Quicker to get a 5 year old to mop the floor and they will clean it better to.

I actually liked using this spray mop. Very easy to use, however after a couple of months I found it very hard to remove the spray bottle. It got to… Read more

the point where I needed my husband to get the bottle off and eventually neither of us to do it! We aren’t young so it ended up being a useless mop. I emailed Sabco for help and was told it the was tricky to remove and put cooking oil around the bit that goes into the mop. Anyway that was useless. I feel I’ve wasted my money on the mop. It wasn’t super expensive but it wasn’t cheap either. So I’m here to say don’t waste your money on this mop, get a Koh one. Cheers!

Mop and bucket – Good mop but very hard to clean the built in bucket Show details

LG Cord Zero ThinQ . I have had this machine for 5 years now and it has proved itself. I'm not sure if there is a newer model. I bought the package… Read more

with stand, spare battery and floor washer. The floor washer is ideal for tiles. I spray a disinfectant after vacuuming. The pads absorb the water and go straight into the washing machine. The bagless vacuum is a delight with a new carpet. The pile is still shedding fluff so being bagless I'm not up for endless bags. Occasionally I have to manually clear the inlet with some chopsticks. The fluff comes out easily. The kit came with a stand and a spare battery. So I can easily vacuum for 30-45minutes on turbo. The filters can be cleaned easily. Currently $799 at HN store This unit replaced the Dyson. Although a good machine it didn't have the tiled floor attachments

I love my Super Swish Xtra and was devastated when the head broke. I made a request to try and buy a spare spare part. The response from Sabco was… Read more

amazing. Justine responded within one day and informed me that the head would be replaced under the warranty, and would be be posted out within a day or two. The replacement was posted out the next day. I Highly recommend Sabco as they stand by their product and the service is absolutely top notch

Not happy with product – I have this mop for a couple of months now. Great the first couple of months. Now the spindle in the bottom of the bucket has completely seized up… Read more

and is absolutely useless!! Of course it now out of warranty. Just be aware if you thinking of buying this product. A waste of $60

Great mop for home (or bus in Pilbara) – This mop is great. I love that it came with 3x pads and it is easy to use. I purchased the mop online via EBay for @$40 (and I've just ordered… Read more

another), to use to clean my bus in the Pilbara in WA as mop and bucket are useless and cumbersome as you're only placing dirty water back onto the floor after first mop. And mop is usually already dirty if you have nowhere to wash it off.

This mop you are placing clean spray onto floor every time and can change pads for up to 3 cleans in one session. Then it is easy to throw them into a washing machine.

The mop can also be used for a windscreen of bus as you can reach the top and the soft pads help to clean off the cooked on bugs.

I now use the mop at home as The only issue I had was I couldn't take the arm attachment apart so I could fit it in my suitcase to take to the next job.

Good quality. The mechanism can lock up, or spin slowly, detergents promote rust. I had to take off the base plate, 4 Philips head screws and wire… Read more

brush the metal shaft to remove the rust. Outside, every 6 months or so spray the neoprene cogs and the metal shaft with a silicone spray. I haven't had a problem since. Use a spray tube extension 'straw' to spray past the foot pedal and get the cogs and shaft and you won't need to take the base off. Make sure to spray the metal shaft Don't use wd40 or the like. After spraying turn the bucket upside down to let the lubricant run along the metal.

Australian designed and made! Ripper of a bucket – I do a lot of soaking. Previously I achieved this by filling up various smaller buckets then transferring soaking wet clothes or cleaning cloths into… Read more

the washing machine.

The Strucket is a large bucket with a strainer basket inside. The basket lifts up and rests on a ledge in the bucket for easy draining. It also has a drain at the bottom which can be used to empty water into the sink. It pops out so you can empty into the sink while the bucket is sitting in there, or you can have the bucket on the bench to the side of the sink and empty through the pipe sitting over the sink.

If you do hand washing, this bucket is brilliant. You can pump the basket up and down to agitate and wash. Rinsing using the strainer basket is also super easy.

The 19L bucket fits in most laundry sinks but would be too large for many kitchen sinks.

Other uses:

-Washing toys or tools (Eg gardening tools, hairdressing combs and brushes) -Washing fresh produce -As an ice bucket (easy to drain melted ice and easy to lift and drain bottles or cans) -Washing dishes or clothes while camping -Dyeing clothes

I also received a 4.5L mini strucket as part of a set. It is quite small but would be great for soaking smaller things (Eg socks or undies or a few cleaning cloths) and for washing small produce like berries. The mini isn’t big enough for every day family laundry but great for small items.

There are so many pros but here are a few things you might need to consider before buying:

-It takes up most of the laundry sink. You really need a faucet you can swivel out of the way after filling unless you have a faucet that has good clearance over the sink. -As it takes up a lot of room, you can’t really use the sink while the Strucket is in there like you might be able to with a smaller regular bucket -The Strucket is very heavy when filled with water and clothes. You can’t really lift a full Strucket onto the bench to drain, you have to let it drain while sitting in the sink. -The 19L does not come with a lid but you can purchase them separately.

If you use reusable nappies, do a lot of soaking, wash all your fresh produce, like to hand wash or enjoy camping then this bucket will be great for you. If you search Strucket on YouTube there is a good short video showing you how it works.

I have had the spin mops and buckets since they came out. The RED bucket with the handle that is the LENGTH of the bucket are fantasic, the new ones… Read more

with the handle ACROSS the middle are absolutly uesless. The bucket tips over and the water goes everywhere. They have bought out a trolley for the bucket about 10yrs ago, they want you to spend more money to be able to mop your floors, you will still have issues like without the trolley if you need to go over some carpet to get to the right flooring, It also has a st>pid pin in the centre of the rinse side that you have to fit the mop on to spin it. That was never there with the orriginal design and it worked great. They have just looked at it and thought how can they get more money out of you, forgetting that a really well made product will ALWAYS sell and be advertised by word of mouth. Get greedy too quick and your product will start to die out, you won’t get repeat buyers which shows what people think of your product! Go back to your drawing board, bring back the RED bucket with the LONG white handle and the mops and mop heads that do not need spining on a pin- usless rubbish! The new mop heads also don’t have many microfiber tassles either, when they are wet your mop just scratches all over the floor, clunking and scrating. I always tell everyone i know and meet what mop and bucket to look out for, and not be SCAMMED with the rubbish you want people to buy now. They can get a better product from BUNNINGS or someone else and for about 1/3 the price, plus you won’t end up out of pocket and with buyers remorse! 1- the at extra cost black trolly sitting on top of bucket 2-the silly pin in the bottom of the sinse side 3 &4- i am holding the handle straight up, the mop bucket tilts downwards, the spinner end is heavier so it go down, its worse with water in the bucket 5-this is the type of handle you need on the buckets, the water doesnt spill and it is level when you pick it up 6-the white mophas the pin hole inside, it doesnt show well, but there aren’t many fibres around it. The purple head is the older head, you just put it into the bucket , pushed the handle up down and up once or twice to rinse then into the spinner and down and up again a few times and it was ready to go. I bought the mop and bucket years ago, dreading this day, as you can see my red bucket is disintergrating, i had bought both buckets direct from White Magic Australia, but never kept any receipts after recieving the dissapointing “new” bucket.

The mop works well pulling dirt out from my hard floors; a bit of Napisan, warm water and a rinse clean brings the mop head back to fresh quickly.… Read more

I’ve had the connectors break but the Sabco team has been fantastic with replacing them. So you can trust that the company stands by their product; you get full use out of what you bought and minimise hard rubbish. Great job Sabco team!

We had trouble with the springs on the mop head and contacted Sabco who arranged for a replacement head to be sent free of charge. Great customer… Read more

service in relation to this problem and very prompt in sending the replacement part within 5 business days.

Very impressed with my new Koh mop. Much better than the cheaper ones which I have.

this has been a really good cleaning mop for my laminate floors, but after 1 year the sleeve that holds the mop head in place has disintegrated,… Read more

which is very disappointing as the mop head itself is still in good condition, but is now useless as it won't stay attached to the plastic head part, this was not a cheap mop & I am disinclined to purchase another mop head

The past 12 months every replacement sponge I use disintegrates after the first use. I don't use any chemicals only water and it is beyond belief.… Read more

Why all of a sudden has this product became an epic failure and total waste of my money with nothing ever being done to rectify the obvious problem of extremely poor materials used in the sponge. Avoid at all costs as it is just a total rip off from sabco with no regard for you as a customer.Bad, bad, bad.

Water leaks everywhere – Seemed to be a good mop until the water bottle started leaking as I bring the mop back towards me and it's impossible to mop up the leaks as the… Read more

thing just keeps leaking. Can't remember what I paid for this useless contraption at Bunnings... it's not even 8wks old... don't waste your money.

A waste of time effort and money. I would have gotten a better result with a wet rag and bucket. When using the mop can't be dried out enough to do a… Read more

"damp mop", we ended up with water all over the floor and I had to get down on all fours with towels to dry out the tiles so they could be walked on. The supplied bucket is another waste of time as it leaves the mop dripping water. As for the design of the mop itself, well, I was reduced to short strokes of about 18 inches so as to not scrape the plastic head on the floor. Very frustrating to attempt to use.

Easily Broken – Had one of these for 2 months. Used it weekly equals 8 times! This morning the wringer bit broke, the red plastic bit that connects to the foot… Read more

pedal broke away from the top connection. No excessive pressure when I used it, just a cheap chinese made bucket that they make a huge profit from. Bunnings replaced it so lets see how long this one lasts?

Just a heap of rubbish – Decided to try these microfibre mops because of the absorbent quality of other microfibre rags and towels I have and they're the biggest let down… Read more

ever. By design of the plastic part of the mop head you can't use them in a mop bucket because the head just pulls off the handle. If you release the pressure a touch when squeezing, ok the head stays on BUT the mop isn't dry enough and the floor floats in water, Had a close look at the inside of the mop head and it's an inferior and substandard design to try and hold it onto the handle.The mop head won't stay on with the simple click on mechanism that Sabco products use. Never again . Going back to Oates products with a mop that screws onto the handle and stays on and doesn't end up in the mop bucket. Had to give it one star because the system wouldn't allow for no stars.

This has to be the best mop ever invented. Easy to use. For stubborn marks you can apply some foot pressure on the mop and off the mark comes. Show details

IT WAS THE OATES SPRAY & GLIDE MOP not the Spin & clean compact mop!!! I filled it with cleaning liquid, and I don't know what went wrong, as all… Read more

the liquid streamed out. I had only used it 4 times. Even trying to clip the bottle back into the mechanism, I had to turn the mop upside down. I was unable to recall the exact steps I took the first time.

There are no videos on how to detach and reattach the bottle. There must be a cap missing, and/or I can see something stuck inside, that looks like a cap. It would be very, very helpful for your customers, OATES, to show how to detach and insert the liquid component rather than people posting useless videos that focus on smiling for the camera and moping.

Update: Yes there was a cap missing!!!!! Would’ve been professional for Oates to have answered this when first posted!

P.s. don’t tamper with the title please !!

Love it – Washable mop head!! Easy to ring out. Easy to use, light weight. Works a treat! Not expensive. Show details

not worth the money – purchased the mop a couple of months ago, the second time I used the mop, the handle would not lock. no longer of any use. I would not recommend this item. Show details

This is great system but the mop handle is flimsy and not up to the job – We love this system and the different pads,it stops you putting too much water on wooden floors but after about the12 months of use the handle is… Read more

bending in all directions and held to gether with tape it is too flimsy andso far i have been un able to access a replacement handle which is disappointing

I have this exact green mop and bucket. I've had the same one, and used it near daily, since 2021. The plastic thing that comes on the front of it is… Read more

good for nothing. Yes, the handle comes off but just put screws through each side of it and you'll never have a problem again. The mop and bucket have taken a beating and only now in 2026 has the lever on the mop (the thing that stops it spinning and stops the extension) fallen off. I'll buy another one.

I love this mop and bucket. It's so functional and easy to use.

I recently bought this flat mop for my new timber floor as it was recommended by the installer. What a terrible product. I ran a hotel… Read more

housekeeping department for 10 years and can say this is the most useless expensive thing I’ve ever bought. I have also never used more energy than I have with this. I’m one of those odd people who like mopping, but this made me want to have a breakdown after the first use, the amount of it doesn’t dry neatly, or clean even the lightest mark off the floor ( that I did white a light scrub with a rag) it also leaves spots of fluid that leak from the spray all over the place which means I have to mop twice. Alsonot to mention for the size of my home I have to use $5 worth of your cleaning fluid (could buy 2 litres of disinfectant for that. The sheer amount of effort to mop with this thing is insane. What a joke, if you are looking to use a flat mop do yourself a favour and buy the cheapest one you can find first to see if you will even contemplate wanting to you one.

It is EXTREMELY hard to remove the liquid reservoir. There are no guide marks. There is no button to push. You just have to yank it extremely hard. But of course, since you have forgotten how to do it, you fear you are going to break it. Atrocious.

What a waste of money! – Used this mop twice, mop head kept falling off the first time and the second the sponge went completely flat and just leaves streaks everywhere!… Read more

Tried to dry it to see if it'd bounce back, nope now it's completely solid. Spent $30 to just throw it out! What a waste of money, I wish I'd read the reviews first!

A waste of money – Seemed like a good idea but extremely disappointing. No assembly instructions then once you get it together, the handle keeps unlocking. Very clunky… Read more

to use and doesn't seem to squeeze out enough water. The large size mop doesn't fit into any bucket I have found so far and there is no way I will pay the exorbitant price for the brand bucket. The cost of return postage made returning for a refund just not worth the effort.

Not happy – Began falling apart after a few uses. Only used on kitchen and laundry floor. Was always leaving large droplets of water on floor. I removed the circular scratchy material to try and stop this happening. Show details
