The first time I used this new bucket IT BROKE! When I applied pressure to wring the mop, I heard a cracking sound and the wringer broke lose from the bucket. It seems to just be glued to the bucket. I did not even apply enough pressure to completely wring the mop...and BANG!!! I can't believe this! I had only applied light pressure, not even enought to wring the mop. So now it's not working at all. I believe the design is wrong! Why else would the wringer immediately brake lose from the bucket. And the way it is designed it won't work when the wringer is detached from the bucket part. So save yourself some frustration and money. Don't buy this model if you actually want to use it. This bucket is a HUGE MISTAKE!!!

As one other person said, you use this once and it breaks. Rubbermaid must have thrown out quality when they made this product. The bucket itself is decent quality, but the arms for the wringer is the issue. Rubbermaid made the mistake and made the arms (pressure point) out of plastic as well. If rubbermaid would have atleast used bolts to hold the arms in place instead they use plastic pins thats molded to the arms.

We use rubbermaid mob buckets at work and I had put my trust into rubbermaid for making a quality product. Wish I opened the box and fully checked out the product before buying. Wal-Mart has these buckets for about 35 dollars

For 20 dollars more (here on amazon) you can get the good quality product that will last for years.

This is the worst mop bucket ever. As stated, when you push down on the handle, the arms at the bottom pop out of place. I've snapped it back into place the first two times it happened (this took a lot of time and energy, I was sweating when I was done). But after the 3rd time, I just left it alone and now it collects dust after months of non use. THE WORST. You will regret this purchase.

Perfect for mopping up the garage after we park our cars in there after a storm. Cleans the floor without leaving lots of water.

I purchased this product expecting a commercial grade product from Rubbermaid. I have owned my Restaurant for nearly 30 years.I have only had 2 mop buckets with wringers the entire time and both were Rubbermaid.I needed a new one and naturely i bought a rubbermaid.It was on sale.
If you want a reliable unit. Dont get this one.The wringer is plastic and broke on day 2. Big mistake, saw it on sale and wasted my money.This item is better suited of home. If you've ever bought online you know returns are expensive. Does not pay to try to return it in my experiance. Buy local when you can see what your buying and a retailer that will help you out. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR. I keep having to learn this. Cheaper buying it once. Good Luck...
