I have owned by Reveal Mop for about 3 months. Unfortunately, about 2 weeks ago I started having the same problem with my handle as other on here. When squeezing the handle, I do not receive a full spray, plus it sticks, so it takes forever to be able to spray again. I loved this mop up until now, but now I feel like I wasted my money. I love Rubbermaid, and I am disappointed in the quality of this product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Returning! Should have known..out of the wrapper with no instructions? So figuring out what packaging material was NOT needed for operation was a trip to the computer? The long unwieldy pole is difficult to maneuver and won't fit under most all furniture. The spray is uncontrolled and wets walls and cabinets well above floor level. There is way too much liquid left behind on the floors, leaving you know choice but to wipe dry. I am still on hands and knees, I don't need this item to complicate that. There is nothing "Better" about this, sorry.
I have used the Reveal Mop for seven months. It worked great until the handle snapped between the trigger assembly and the pole. I called Customer Service and they were fantastic. I ordered another one immediately. I did not have any issues with this product until it broke. The mop saved me time and money by being able to use my own cleaner and reusing the microfiber pads. I would like to see the microfiber pads made a little thicker to be able to handle more cleaner before becoming saturated. The mop works great and would recommend it to everyone.
I loved the Reveal mop the first few times. Then it jammed up and won't spray. It also leaks. Wasted my money.

We do apologize that you are having trouble with your Reveal Mop.
If you feel your Rubbermaid item is defective and failed shortly after purchase, we ask that you contact our Consumer Services Department toll free at 888-895-2110, 8:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. EST, M-F.
We love the concept and design, but we're on our 3rd mop in 6 months due to very, poor quality. The sprayer jammed on our first mop, we purchased another one and in the first use it leaked all over the floor. We're now returning it.
I haven't had this mop for more than one month and it has already malfunctioned. The bottle that holds the solution continually leaks. This product is a big waste of money. The concept was great the product...not so much.

Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding your Reveal Mop.
Please make sure that you do not see a blue foam ring that is between the bottle and the mop itself. This is packaging and should be discarded. If it is present the mop bottle will not fully seat into the mop and the liquid may leak out of the bottle.
Secondly, make sure that the clear vent cap is present under the lid. To check this, remove the red cap and look underneath of it for the clear vent cover.
If your mop continues to leak, please contact our Consumer Services Department toll free at 888-895-2110, 8:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. EST, M-F.
Ok, I RARELY write reviews.. This product is fantastic. I have been a long time user of the swiffer. Now I'm unemployed and trying to pinch pennies. So, I decided to purchase the "reveal" instead of more pads for the swiffer. I wish I had done so years ago! While using this, it revealed dirt under the fridge and cabinets that had been missed (no telling for how long).. The large mop head made my cleaning time less and cleaned better that even my traditional mop. I will be telling EVERYONE how wonderful this product is.. Off to post on facebook~ Happy cleaning.
I loved this product for the first about 6 times I used it, then the little plastic pieces that hold the mop part on broke. I still used it for 3 more times, only I couldn't lift it up or the mop fell off. Then the whole pole just snapped off. Needless to say it is in the trash. I do not think I will replace it with the same item as I cannot afford to buy one every month or so. I think it would be a wonderful product if it was constructed with stronger parts. I loved the idea of using different solutions in the bottles.
