At present, the common mops on the market are as follows: flat mop, cotton mop, rotary mop, magic broom. Four types of mops have their own advantages and are suitable for different usage scenarios.

scenes to be used

Cotton mops and flat mops are suitable for households that are not too dirty;

Magic brooms are better at cleaning up water spots and hair;

The rotary mop is suitable for kitchens, offices or open areas where the ground is easily soiled.

Functional difference

Magic brooms are best at cleaning water and hair;

Cotton mop and flat mop are more suitable for smooth floors of floor tiles and wooden floors;

The rotary mop is more suitable for more dirty scenes such as juice, cigarette butts, and oil fumes on the ground;

flat mop

The flat mop is an evolution of the old-fashioned mop and the cleanest mop, but only if you use the mop head that doesn't turn. You can turn the mop head at will, which is easier to use, but it is difficult to completely mop the ground at one time, and basically you need to mop it again.

Although there is a style of automatic wiper now, it is quite laborious to clean, and the ground is not as fast as collodion mopping after mopping.

If you buy it, try to choose a hand-free model with an automatic wiper, which makes it easier to clean.

cotton mop

From the point of view of cleaning effect, the cotton mop is a little bit better than the flat mop, but it is very convenient to clean.

The cotton mop is faster and more convenient than other mops in terms of water absorption speed and drying speed, and the water absorption capacity is several times higher than other mops. After mopping, there are very few water marks left on the ground, and it generally evaporates quickly.

The disadvantage of the collodion mop is that it absorbs water slowly when it is used for the first time or after drying and drying, so it is not advisable to hang the collodion mop in a ventilated and sun-dried place all year round, otherwise it will easily dry and become hard. It is recommended to put it in the bathroom, because the cotton mop is not easy to dry due to the high air humidity. If it gets dry, rinse it a few times before using it, let it absorb enough water and squeeze it dry.

The cotton head cannot be completely removed (there are two plastic sheets on the cotton head), it is inconvenient to completely clean it, although it does not affect the use, but people with cleanliness may look a little uncomfortable.

But when in use, the cotton mop is not like a rotary mop, which can rotate the mop rod at will. It needs to work hard towards one place. If the mopping area is slightly larger, it will be quite laborious. Anyway, I sweat every time I finish mopping the house. .

After the collodion mop has dragged the hair, it needs to be cleaned by hand or rinsed with water and then cleaned up in the trash can.

If you choose a cotton mop, there are two types of squeezing methods: folding and roller. Folding is more thorough and is more than twice that of rollers.

Cotton head has 27 / 28 / 30 / 31.5 / 33 / 35 / 37 and other sizes. Generally, it is recommended to choose 27 / 28 cm. This size of cotton head is basically supported by all manufacturers. The cotton head patch (on the cotton head The position of the two card-position plastic pieces) is the same. However, the longer the cotton head, the larger the mopping area, and the less time and physical strength it takes to mop.

Rotary mop

The advantage of the rotary mop is that you don’t have to bend over to squeeze the mop. In fact, you don’t need a collodion mop, but the cotton used for this kind of cotton mop is generally not good. The effect was good at first, but it has been used for a long time. , the fiber shrinkage greatly reduces the water absorption capacity.

However, the rotary mop is used to deal with open areas such as offices and restaurants, and there are many types of garbage in places where people come and go, so the advantages come out. First, it is better at cleaning cigarette butts and juice, and second, it is more labor-saving. Relatively speaking, it is possible to No glue cotton mop, flat mop mop clean, but it takes a lot of effort.

magic broom

The principle is similar to that of a wiper, so the cleaning effect is better in an environment with water, and dry scraping is not impossible, but it is not as good as a cotton mop for fine dust. Mainly used for wiping sanitary napkins and shaving hair elsewhere.

mop stick

The mainstream mop rods are generally made of iron, aluminum, and stainless steel. Iron is relatively cheap and is generally painted; aluminum has poor stress; stainless steel is not easy to rust. There is also a difference between whether the rod is retractable or not. Choose whether it needs to be retracted or not according to the usage and placement scenarios. Generally, retractable ones are more expensive.
