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 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 Show reply
This is the second time that the springs holding the swivel handle have broken. To Sabco's credit a new mop head has been provided free of charge and without question. Maybe stainless steel springs and of a heavy grade are warranted as the broken springs were rusted out. Show reply
I have used the mop four or five times now and everytime is extremely difficult to remove bottle!!! Tried wiggling. Tried everything but to no avail. Other than that loved the convenience of the actual mop but can't refill bottle because can't remove it so waste of money

Quality Product & after sales – On the mop head holder the small plastic part accidentally snapped off , so I enquired about purchasing a replacement. The mop was out of the warranty period. I received a prompt reply from Sabco. As requested photos were sent and a free replacement posted which was gratefully received. It’s rare to receive such excellent after sale attention especially for a product which I value. Many thanks to Justine and team. Show details · 1
Love it – I work in community for age care and have been using a Sabco super swish xtra at a client’s home for Over a year. Loved how quickly I could clean their floors, and have just purchased one for my new home. Show reply
Best Hardwood Floor Sweeper – This Super Swish Xtra can both mop and sweep as it has to different pads for these jobs. I have used the mop head but find it impractical as I have to remove the pad and hand clean the pad which is time consuming and fiddly. It doesn't do a good job in cleaning as opposed to a normal mop. The sweeper pad is the best I have used to sweep my… Read more · 3
hardwood floor. The large size and flexible movability means the job is done quickly. It glides smoothly over my floor.

Not happy – Had one of these purchased 7 years ago when the pads were orange, needed replacing and could only get the bright green ones. They are definitely not the same product and don't do the same job, I am particularly disappointed in the wet one, it just glides over and the stains are all left behind. The orange one was much softer and stuck to the floor… Read more
more, yes slightly hard to move, but it did clean the stains off. Very disappointed and now have to look for another new mop that will actually clean. The dust mop is too fluffy and it is quite hard to sweep with.

It Breaks Twice – The mechanism broke. I have had one replaced but couldn't be bothered when the same problem occured with its replacement. It's the best for sweeping and mopping. But don't recommend. Show details

Sprinklea mop – This is a awful swish mop for floor boards it keeps going to side to side even if locked in to centre. I paid a lot for this horror and really does not mop the floor propery. It has a spowt where you can put about 25ml water and press the button and comes out as you mop but you seem to spend more time on mobing the mop heaf into place. Tried every… Read more

Not functioning properly – I cant resize the handle. Also dark water keeps dripping out continually when i use it. And the super swish wet pad is vey annoying to use. It keeps flipping around and getting in the way when i try and mop.

Best mop use it daily – It’s so easy and fast to use my floors have never looked so good cause I can give them a quick mop every day it’s so efficient, I’ve never loved a mop before but this ones a keeper Show details · 1
Pleasant surprise – My mop handle had stopped re-sizing and I left a complaining comment on a website set up for such things. It required I leave my details - and allora! I was contacted my a Sabco representative within a couple of days who immediately arranged for a replacement to be sent. It arrived today. It works and I am now a happy customer. Show reply
Excellent Service – I had previously owned the orange version of this and it served me well for eight years or so. I replaced it with the green mop as I did not want to use another brand. Unfortunately the clip that allows the folding of the mechanism snapped. I was so disappointed, emailed the organisation and received a phone call within a few hours of sending… Read more · 1
the email. The company was happy to replace the mop and were extremely courteous and obliging in doing so. I sincerely hope that the same does not happen again, as I truly do not want to use any other product. This mop does a brilliant job, simple to use and am sure my faith in this product will be restored. Thank you.

Sent replacement – Small spring on mop head lost, after several failed attempts to send the correct part, they replaced the whole mop. Very pleased with the service and product. Would buy product again.
Forget about floors. Super swish Extra is great for cleaning dust off solar panels – Use your SABCO super swish Xtra with water to clean dust off rooftop solar panels for increased output. The swivel head allows a person standing on a step ladder (at eye height with panels) a much safer option compared with standing on a wet roof. Improvements could include a longer handle, and inbuilt hose attachment. Show details · 1
Best mop I've ever used – Really effective, just lightly spray the floor with water and wipe it. Floor dries in a few minutes. Environmentally friendly - needs no chemicals, hardly any water and can be washed many times for re-use. I'm tall, so I like the extendable handle so I don't have to bend too much, also like the swivel base to get into corners and tight areas. I… Read more
think the product needs plain written instructions to come with it. The video isn't all that clear until I worked out you don't need a bucket, just a spray bottle, and you sling the pad in the washing machine when you've finished. Just have to be careful to carefully press the dark green lever to attach and remove the pad. Highly recommend this (with decent instructions).
Love it – I have tried so many different types if brooms, mops and vacuums. I have a small dog who sheds like mad - so I need to sweep or vacuum every day or two. This is without doubt the easiest and quickest. I love taking it over my timber and tiled floors very quickly - because it is so large - then I shake it outside before grabbing the wet mop pad and go over with that just damply wrung out. Finally a fast solution! Show reply
Multi brilliant – Cleaning large wall areas on a big interior wall always bothered me.Then I looked at my SABCO floor wiper and wondered- what if.So put some Sugar Soap and Water on pad & -" SWISHED-" the bricks.It did brilliantly,easily,and cut a 5 hour clean to 1 hour. Show 2 replies
Rubish – The handle keeps collapsing defeats what I’m trying to do with it.Waste of money wouldn’t recommend to anybody.I returned to Woolworths they didn’t replace the model so stuck with something we can’t use. Very disappointed!

Great for big floor. One of my favorite but – Great product and suitable for the my need with large floor areas. Come with 2 refills. Bought from Woolworths and it's one of the expensive ones but work well so I am glad after many I used to buy. Just only sometimes the extended handle comes loose and didn't stay! Kept tightening it up annoyed me. I wish I could get a replacement but my docket… Read more · 1
lost over 2 weeks using it. The velco is really good idea but hope it stronger material so it last longer. Overall I like it even better than the 360 'spin one.
Fantastic product cleaning staff never been so happy – Quicker, cleaner floors, walk on in 5 minutes, Staff happy, lightweight, easy to use. Washes like new every time. Highly recommended. Trick, spray floor, use wet pad to clean. Just purchased 2 more with refills. Thrown away mops and buckets. Show reply
Love the small one – Small mop great, and understood right away that a spray bottle is the way to go. Never totally wet the head. Just buy a couple of spares and chuck them in the machine. Never get my hands wet. Always have a clean one ready. Love it, though the velcro thing on one has gone and I use rubber bands to hold it on. However, the bigger models. Don't know… Read more · 1
what their numbers were, but the first one broke on that hinge in 2 weeks, the second in less. And there's NO way of fixing it. When you've com back from the drawing board, let me know.That's $80 lost on those and I have several spare heads sitting around. Can't take them back to Masters, can I!!

mop with dust attachment and mop – I purchased this mop 2 days ago, I used the duster which was okay but not great, it doesnt have secured fittings just slides on. The mop pad is the same, When i folded it down with the foot button to squeeze out it snapped in half, I have had the older model similar to this for many years and cannot get replacement mop pads which is why i… Read more
had to buy a new mop. I spent almost 40 dollars and it is broken the next day . I would like a refund but did not keep docket as i had never had this happen before. it does not fit in the bucket either.
Hi Deb - Sorry to hear about your Super Swish Xtra… Read more
Yuck – Rubbish mop. Didn't even fit in the bucket that comes with it (or sold next to it at woolies). No wringing mechanism (what mop doesn't have a wringing mechanism?!) so you have hold it and let the excess drip off but it leaves the floor soaking which leads to streaking. Tried going over with the dry pad but that was hopeless. Searching for a new mop now. I did like the width of the mop, if you could wring it out it would be ok.
Hi P N, Thank you for your feedback, The microfiber flat… Read more
Mop is only as good as the Velcro that attaches the mophead – the Velcro strips after 4 uses are 50% lifted from the mophead making it almost useless to remove and replace the head after rinsing. I have previously had the exact mop with no problems whatsoever. Very disappointed with a mop that is one week old

Brilliant Mop – Have used this mop in a commercial environment for a couple of years and it's been very good to use. Extremely sturdy, it has an extension pole which is great for tall people like myself. The pad is a large size so you can cover a large area in a short space of time. Pad mops are one of my favourite type of mops - they are simple and work well. Definitely recommend. Show reply
This is great – Absolutely great mop had no issues I don't think these people writing bad reviews don't know how to use it properly. Recommend it to anyone with timber floor. It leaves no streaks and easy to use Show reply
Absolute was of 20 bucks – The handle doesn't extend, so only suitable if you're 4 feet tall; it's impossible to squeeze water out of so the floor is sopping wet. Who invented this piece of rubbish? After using it twice, it's gone to the op shop.

Who invents these things? – SABCO SUPER SWISH XTRA The people who invent these whizz bang mops have never mopped a floor in their life! While this mop is wide and supposedly lessens the time it takes to clean the floors, who wants to have to continually rip the pad from the base, swish it around in hot water to clean it, wring it out and then fiddle around attaching the pad… Read more
to the base again? Because THAT is the palaver you have to go through regardless of what the ads say. Give me an old fashioned mop and a bucket with a foot wringer any time. Why re-invent the wheel?

Floors still dirty after mopping :( – I just had brand new floors installed and bought this mop thinking it would be awesome. It's far from it!! Straight after vacuuming and mopping our feet are filthy. Every. Single. Time.

Sabco swish with feathered microfibre – Horrible. Hard to sweep with and hard to clean. Discarded. The worse thing is it is sold in woolies. The microfibre fingers mop XL total on the other hand is 100% better. Should be sold in woolies but can only get from bunnings.

Horrible! – We'll We mopped the floors, got a paper towel, and gave it a wipe over to find the paper towel brown!!! You expect to mop and have clean floors!!! I felt dirty to even walk on the 'clean' floors again!!! It's a horrible mop and do not recommend to anyone!!!! The floor is still filthy after wards!!!
Hate wringing by hand – I thought this mop would be great for my floating timber floors. but water just sits on top. so have to go over it again with a towel to dry off. and I have arthritis and did not take into consideration the wringing out but it works well on the bath room tiled floor Light and goes into corners and swivels. good on iles.. Wringing out by hand. yuk alright for some people.
Sabco covers/refills for the mop are perfect! – I actually have an enjo flat mop but I was given the sabco pad to try - much better! Fits my enjo reasonably well, only costs $12 from a supermarket, machine washable - lasts a loooong time (I'm on my 2nd pad in 4 months in a very high traffic/ 3 indoor dog household, mopping every day). Best of all the Sabco has a scourer pad attached to it so… Read more · 5
while you're mopping and find a spot that wont budge, flip the little square out and use you toe to scrub. Does the job wonderfully, can't recommend it enough!
GET a flat mop everybody!! I live in a very large open plan home, with large floor area and I swear it's only 15mins to swish mop the whole house. The scourer attachment makes this the perfect all-in-one mop head. Wonderful!! I pity those still struggling with a rope head mop...or worse - the dreaded sponge head with silly screws to replace head..I actually use mine with an enjo mechanism/ handle but I would not buy the enjo refills ever again. Sabco is cheaper, performs better on my lino/wood/tile floors. None! The Sabco flat mop head refills are wonderful, can't fault, can't be improved. I even use mine dry to sweep prior to mopping if I don't want to vacuum.
Waste of money and time using it – 1st use of it and starts to peel off. Ended up picking more little green fluff pieces off the floor than actual cleaning Show details
