This review is from: Behrens #412W 12QT Comb Mop Bucket (Kitchen)
My title is in response to those annoying commercials about replacing your mop and broom with a Swiffer. I have a fairly large home with hard floors, most of which are tile or laminate. After spending a small fortune on a multiude of new inventions to clean them, I now aknowledge that nothing gets the job done as well or any quicker that the old fashioned broom and mop. The best mop is a cotton string one without any mechanical devices in it for wringing, but my hands don't have much strength anymore and I needed to get a mop bucket with a wringer. This one is large enough to accomodate my big fluffy mop but small enough to fill in the kitchen sink and not too heavy for lifting it when filling or dumping. It appears to be made well enough to last for many years and was priced well below anything else in the same league.

This review is from: Behrens #412W 12QT Comb Mop Bucket (Kitchen)
I chose to purchase this wringer bucket because I love using a regular cotton mop for cleaning floors and the wheeled mop buckets are too large and too expensive for my average sized home. The bucket functioned great the first time I used it, but on the second use the little weld that holds the mechanism to rod coming out of the bucket snapped and the entire wringer mechanism came apart. I'm planning on going to the hardware store and purchasing a washer that I can crimp on the end so that the mechanism can't slide off the bar. I'm worried though, that as I continue using it more parts are going to break as wringing a mop creates a lot of tension on the mechanism. The design is great and worthy of 5 stars but the assembly of my bucket appears to be on the sloppy side, might not be true for others.

I don't usually get fooled but...,

You might ask, "how can a galvanized mop bucket be bad?" Well, let me tell you, it can be!
After searching for this product in brick and mortar stores, I realized the day of a galvanized mop bucket had past. I own one that is probably 35 years old if it's a day and it works beautifully. I needed another for a vacation home and so ordered it. The price seemed right and the shipping was just under ten bucks so I got it. When I opened it, I found that it was defective in several areas: 1. the "foot pad" where you stand on it to stabilize the pail to ring the mop, does not line up properly with the other "ringer" pad." So, this means instead of comfortably ringing the mop, you have to litterly stand directly of the pail while ringing - a major inconvenience because not only do you get the water all over your feet, you are off balance. The ringer pad is so high up that you need to hold onto something else, like a counter, before you can place you foot onto it. 2. The rollers themselves don't line up so there is a one inch difference from one end of the roller to the other, thus, the water never gets rung out properly. 3. The finish itself is so bad that if you attempt to touch the sides of the item anyplace there is a weld or screw, there are sharp bits of metal, and if you are not careful you end up with metal splinters. 4. The metal frame also came in bent in various areas. Since the box itself was in perfect condition, I must assume this is how it left the warehouse. Return it? Forget it! They don't refund the shipping price, so, I'll not only be out the shipping costs but my cost to mail it back - in which case I'll have spent almost as much as the cost of the item itself, and then I'll have to go through the experience with someone else as well. So, I'll keep it as a reminder that once in awhile you get fooled. Find someone else to get this from! MC
