My dears, I have a love/hate relationship with my mop. I use the Libman Wonder Mop. I like it because I can take off the mop head completely and machine wash it. I like it that I can wring it out without getting my hands wet.
But it doesn't seem to be able to scrape all the dried on crude that abounds in my kitchen, especially under the high chair.
SOOOO...what do you use? Why do you like it?

Sadly, I have never found the perfect mop. I buy one... 2 years later go looking for a replacement head and they are no longer made.
After working in a variety of food service jobs, mopping at home is just not as fast and efficient. Maybe in my dream house we can remodel the kitchen to be more cooking friendly. Needless to say, I only mop about once a month or when company comes over. Gasp!
For the dried on bits I use one of those plastic scrubby sponge things. But... I do have to get my hands wet.

I love the Libman as well. I try to use the part where the handle meets the attachment for dried on bits.
You could also just leave a wet paper towel on the hard spot and then wipe it up later. I do that on my counter tops and it works great.

I too use a Libman. Just cant beat washing the mop head. I just keep some of my floor solution in a spray bottle and spray the gunky areas and let it sit a few minutes before going over it with the mop. If it persists, i get a plastic spatula out of my cooking drawer and scrape it away.

I'm a sponge mop kind of gal. But like Anita I end up replacing it every couple of years because I can't find a replacement head to fit.
I think it's all a vast conspiracy to part me from my money.
