Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I LOVE how easy this mop is to use. I LOVE not having to hurt my back with any tough scrubbing. I’m not totally enamored with the price point, but the trade off is I literally walk behind this mop while it does the cleaning for me. Specs: Lithium battery voltage: 2000 mAh, 35 W Run time: 55 minutes (mine goes over an hour) Charge time: 3-5 hours Oscillation/vibration rate: 1000 cycles per minute Cleaner reservoir (tank): 200mL/6.7fl oz Headlamps: 2 small lights on the front of the machine to help you see under furniture Battery / Charge lights: 3 lights that make it easy to see how much battery you have and if it is charging/full Box size: 15.375 in. x 13.375 in. x 4.625 in. (HxWxxD) Machine size: 46.375 in. x 11.5 in. x 13.5 in. (HxWxxD) Machine weight: 5.2 lbs Handle range of motion: *Mop turns off in upright position Front to back: ~90° Side-to-side: ~100° (~40° each direction) What is it replacing? A WetJet and a 380t Robot Mop. The main difference between the WOW Mop and WetJet is how much effort it takes: none vs. total manual labor. If you have a bad back, splurge on the WOW Mop! As for the 360t, I love the dry sweep, but HATE the mop function. Unboxing: The Nellie’s WOW Mop comes in a fairly small box (13.375 in. x 15.375 in. x 4.625 in.). The mop is disassembled, but it takes less than 20 seconds to snap the handle together. Mine came partially charged, so I was able to verify that it indeed turned on. However, like all electronics, the manufacturer recommends you give it a full charge before operation. First Use: Oh my word!! I was so enamored when I first started it up, that I ended up cleaning the whole downstairs without even noticing. This mop is crazy fun. Weird to say that about a mop, but it is actually FUN! I had just mopped my floors two days prior, so there wasn’t a lot to clean, but I was impressed how much this mop picked up. Battery Life: I’ve managed to mop my whole house without needing a charge between floors. I hadn’t actually run out of battery mopping my house, so ran it down from a full battery. I stopped it after an hour because I was well past the listed time and I frankly needed some quiet. It should be noted that all three indicator lights were still lit after a full hour. Gunk Test: I put loads of crap all over my floor. Everything mopped up! YAY! Okay, now when I say I tested a lot of gunk, I mean I put a ton of stuff all over my floors, left it to get nice and sticky, didn’t soak up any liquid, then ran the WOW Mop over the whole thing. All for science! Really, no prior pick up or vacuuming. No changing of the mop pad half way through. I ran it until the floor was clean. I did change to a new set of pads after cleaning up everything to see how much I’d left behind. Truthfully: not much. Mostly I missed a spray of coffee grounds (again, the manual says vacuum loose particles first…). This took me about 12 minutes to get down the two lines without changing the mop pads. I believe it would have taken me 3x as long with the WetJet, and I probably would have changed pads every 4 messes. The 360twould have just nudged it all around without cleaning anything. The second pass took less than 4 minutes. I think I actually spent more time making the messes than cleaning them up, which is fantastic. Pros: - Ease of use: practically no effort; just walk around - Oscillation: does all the scrubbing work for you - Refillable: use any solution you want - Low / No ongoing costs: you’re only paying for charging power and cleaning solution. Eventually you’ll need to replace the pads, but they’re only $20 - Auto-off: pop the handle in the upright position and the machine turns off - Self-standing: GREAT for when you need to wrassle furniture out of the way - Easy to assemble - Easy to read charge lights: can see in both dark and light rooms with no trouble; clearly indicates when charging and when full Cons: - Expensive start-up cost (but you’re paying for a mop you just walk behind…it does all the work!) - Charge port: the placement of the charge port is awkward. You have to dig out a rubber cap from the front of the machine. The rubber cover is to protect it from liquids because it is in front…where the sprayer is. I’d prefer a charger in the handle or on top of the base, and a port without a cover - Cleaning Reservoir: cannot tell how much is left inside or how much more solution to add until it overflows - Somewhat large footprint - Cannot be hung for storage (this makes me nervous to leave pads on there in between quick cleanings - Range of motion: cannot tilt the handle fully side-to-side; sometimes I accidentally switch it off trying to move the handle front and back - Handle buttons: the sprayer and power button are too close This isn’t a con, per say, but since there is no effort, I’m not getting a higher heart rate, which means I’m not getting any workout minutes. =/ Tips for Use: Slightly dampen the pads before use (NOT dripping wet; I just lightly spray them with water)
