I really liked the mop-felt it was very effective on my laminate floors and easy to use. But within 4 months the sprayer has stopped working and no apparent way to fix it. It has a 1 year warranty-I have sent in my receipt to costumer service and hope to have it replaced.
Mop head does not carry enough of the washing solution after spraying and mopping the floor. It will only hold about one half a container of cleaning solution, the deposits dirty water back on the floor, takes forever to dry and it's dirty water that redeposits dirt on the drying floor. Even stopping and removing the mop and wringing it out is not a good solution. Very disappointed. Swiffer here I come ...again!!
I expect more from a Rubbermaid product. First, in order for the spray to land on the floor, the handle (and trigger) must be about a 90deg. angle to the floor. That makes squeezing the trigger quite inconvenient. Second, as cleaner leaves the bottle, the bottle caves in, making it difficult to spray. Third, assuming you can spray cleaner onto the floor, the cloth mop head does not absorb it. It pushes the liquid & spreads it well but after mopping a room, the cloth is still dry. Finally, all problems were solved after 4 moppings; the trigger is now broken. I must hold the handle upright, squirt, push the handle farther forward (about 45 deg), listen for something in the handle to click, then the trigger is ready again. Worthless!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have purchased 3 of these mops in the past 1.5 years each one breaking at the handle. Should have learned after the first 2 but I just loved its ease of use so much. I'll be going back to carrying my spray bottle and a basic microfiber mop. Too bad b/c its such a great idea
I am on my 4-5th mop within the last 2 years, I keep replacing because I love using my own family safe cleaner and I've also invested so much in the additional clothes. If its not the handle breaking its the sprayer sticking......Come on Rubbermaid you have better product history than this! I recommend this if you have $ to spend.
Had another brand of T-mop when I saw this one with the spray bottle attached. Bought it, used it and absolutely loved it....for about two and a half months, and then the handle snapped right off where the bottle inserts into the handle. Very disappointed in the lack of Rubbermaid Quality.
I bought 3 reveal mops over the last 4 months for my cleaning business & they all broke either the handles broke off or the mop snapped In half after a few weeks of use.
