O-Cedar ProMist MAX Microfiber Spray Mop, Red

I love this spray mop! So easy to use and does a great job cleaning my floors. I love that it has 2 sides and that you can use your own detergent rather than being forced to buy a specific brand. The best part of all is that there are no expensive single-use refill pads. The microfiber cover is washable (and you can buy extras).

I love this cedar mop I have plug-in mops floor steamers that were extremely expensive and they work great but honestly, the easiest one is the cedar mop. It does a good job. It’s fast and easy. I wish I could return all my expensive ones, they have chords you have to plug them in. It’s a process. This is my second cedar mop. The first one lasted me like eight years for 16 bucks. I’ll take it.

I love this mop and the pads are washable. They stand up better than the mop, sadly. I’ve bought 3 of these in the last 2 years. The latest one was April 2025 and it broke last month along w a leak. It’s not durable. BUT it’s a great mop while it lasts. I can’t find one I like better so I keep buying and after z6 months it breaks, I toss it, and buy another.

These mops are freaking great. Honestly for $20 (and sometimes less) you are getting a tool that is extremely beneficial to your cleaning game. O-Cedar’s refillable solution tank saves a ton of money as a little bleach or floor cleaner solution mixed with some water goes a loooooooooong way compared to buying a mop with premade solutions or disposable mop heads. It’s lightweight so easy to maneuver, the pump sprayer works excellent at dispersing solution, and overall material quality is about as good as it can be for $20. I use mine daily, several times actually, enough so I typically refill the solution bottle once every other day. A typical O-Cedar mop lasts me about a year before it bites the dust. I am on my third mop now in three years and I can tell you that these can take some constant abuse before degrading to an unusable point. Eventually the mop heads wear out at the Velcro, no longer staying on the mop because the Velcro’s ability to stick to itself wears out. The rod that connects the handle to the solution/bottom of the mop will eventually rust as solution gets into this connection area with regular use. Nothing you can do to prevent this, and if you tip the mop back so the mop head comes off the ground (like say you are going to change the mop head and you turn the mop upside down so the head is at a more comfortable height to remove the pad) a bit of rusty dirty solution will leak out onto the floor. That’s the solution that’s sitting inside this pocket where the rod connects to the sprayer. Design flaw, but not a deal breaker by any means. These two things happen 100% of the time with regular use. The last point of failure I experienced with one mop (I see this as a potential failure in general, not exclusive to me) is the connection points within the mop’s shaft can wear down and “pop” out of place, requiring duct tape to hold it together. This is due to the pressure of the internal plunger located inside the shaft that runs the length of the mop from the handle to the diaphragm, combined with the general pressure of being pushed, twisted, and turned, while cleaning. It wears out, again expected for a $20 tool that can take a ton of daily use for approximately a years time. Totally worth it, your wasting your time at this point if you are still reading this instead of just buying one for yourself.

I honestly don’t know why anyone would spend more money on a fancy mop when the O-Cedar ProMist MAX does the job this well. It’s way cheaper than most alternatives, incredibly convenient, and just flat-out works — especially if you have tile floors. The spray feature is simple and effective, and the microfiber pad picks up dirt, dust, and grime without just pushing it around. Best part? When it gets dirty, you just toss the microfiber pad in the wash and reuse it. No disposable pads, no refills to constantly buy, no hassle. It’s lightweight, easy to maneuver, and perfect for quick cleanups or full floor cleaning. I use it regularly and it leaves my tile floors looking clean without streaks or residue. If you’ve got tile floors and want something affordable, reusable, and actually effective, this is a must-have. Simple, smart design that does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

I want to share my experience with “The Best Spray Mop” cleaning tool. It didn’t clean my house floors as effectively as it did for the America's Test Kitchen team. I wish I could have enjoyed and shared the same great results they did!  Regardless of the angle at which I hold the mop’s handle when I sweep, the mop’s entire microfiber surface doesn’t touch or clean the floor; only part of it does. I have to press harder to apply pressure. Applying pressure can help improve contact between the mop and the surface. However, I can’t constantly maintain the mop's pressure when I have a larger surface, which is very uncomfortable. The microfiber cloth pad is a bit larger than expected, due to multiple washes losing shape, which makes it fit loosely on the hard plastic base. Because of this, it tends to move around while I'm sweeping, so it can be a little tricky to use effectively; I feel it's shifting back and forth with each sweeping movement. I always have to twist the red water reservoir's lid into a specific position for a secure fit and optimal operation. If I don’t take this extra care, the lid will skip the threads and become loose, causing water leaks. O-Cedar needs regular care; it is not just a “use it and forget it” cleaning tool. After using it, I take a few steps to keep it in good shape. First, I clean the microfiber pad. Then, I empty the water tank and rinse it before letting it dry. I also clean the sprayer part to prevent it from getting clogged. If my mop spreads germs instead of cleaning and disinfecting, I won't make the floors cleaner. It claims to be “The Best Spray Mop,” but it doesn’t work as well as I hoped. Although I would love the money back, unfortunately, it is too late to return it; it doesn’t comply with the return policy terms. Right from the beginning, this mop commands consumers' attention. The product description states: ”O-Cedar ProMist MAX Microfiber Spray Mop Removes 99% of Bacteria with just Water.” The claim that a piece of microfiber cloth takes away 99% of bacteria using only water is a vast oversimplification. With one sentence confidently highlighting “The Best Spray Mop,” among others, America's Test Kitchen focused consumers' attention on the O-Cedar ProMist MAX Microfiber Spray Mop. Also, ATK mentioned, “A good spray mop easily tackles small messes and routine cleanings without a bulky bucket.” Respectfully, “The Quicker Picker Upper” also has superior absorbency and effectiveness in cleaning all messes. Also, the manufacturers generally design all mops to handle small messes and routine maintenance. All models have convenient, standard heads for reaching under and around furniture, an obvious fact of modern design. O-Cedar's website states: “The folks at America’s Test Kitchen also named it the best spray mop!” O-Cedar also mentions: “After testing six mops, ProMist MAX easily came out on top!” O-Cedar clarifies further: “Voted Best Spray Mop by America’s Test Kitchen.” O-Cedar further implies: "Anatomy of a Winner.” Displayed prominently in a scalloped design on O-Cedar’s website, the "Anatomy of a Winner" comprises the following capabilities for impressive marketing terminology: spacious trigger, powerful sprayer, double-sided head, and super-absorbent pads— still insufficient. A mop that’s “America’s Test Kitchen Favorite” might not meet all users' practical and immediate needs. One platform alone indicates that seven percent of users are unsatisfied with the product’s long-term performance, build quality, price vs. value, effectiveness, etc. While the O-Cedar mop is just a mop, so is the Sweefer mop; yet, it is less bulky and, on the contrary, has an accurate sleeker profile. It makes it easier to store in narrow spaces, such as the six inches between the wall and the washing machine. I can use it on various surfaces by selecting the appropriate pad material for different floor types. There is no spray trigger malfunctioning or sticking, and there is no indication of how much solution to dispense for various surfaces, as this inconsistency can be somewhat frustrating. By recommending “The Best Spray Mop,” America’s Test Kitchen positions it as the top choice, using authority and confidence to sway customer decisions. As we say, “The Art of Persuasion.”

I was tired of buying expensive refills and batteries for my Swiffer. I also never felt like it was really getting my floors clean. I would always end up using my industrial steam mop so my floors would pass the barefoot test. The pads didn't absorb anything so the dust and dirt was just getting moved around. I tried similar mops where you could remove the mop pads and wash them but I was never happy with the way they fit. I LOVE the way you slide these mop pads on and velcro them on tight. Not only do they not fall off while you're cleaning , they cover the edges of the mop head so all the corners of my floors are getting cleaned. I also LOVE the way you can flip it over and dry the floor with the other side of the mop head, leaving the floor dry when you finish. Lastly, I LOVE that I can use my own cleaning solution since not all my floors are wood finished. Now all my floors pass the barefoot test. I've bought it for other people who are cleaning obsessed like myself and it's become their favorite mop too.

This mop works really good but only last about 2 months before the pump in the handle doesn't work any more. I have bought about 10 of them so far. I just ordered another one. The return policy time frame on Amazon is so short that it expires before it breaks. It is really convenient in the mean time and is great for cleaning floors.
