Review on Simplehuman BT1035 Fold Away Squeegee by Seth Tezzy

Revainrating 3 out of 5

if not engaged: pivot may need readjustment

As with many long term reviews of this mop, the pivot will loosen over time. Rather than just tightening it, which may not solve the leakage problem, I recommend removing the hex bolt and inspecting the assembly. The black spacers on either side should fit into the notches. the middle metal part could detach from the outer frame and prevent attachment. After installing, aligning, and reassembling correctly, you may find that it suddenly snaps back into place. After alignment, you can now tighten the screw. The screw may come loose later, so repeat this process if simple tightening doesn't work. This metal part, seals or other component is misaligned and needs to be realigned in order for it to engage. simply tightening will not help align and fix it. Also, I noticed some wear on the notched aluminum profile, which can eventually wear out due to the constant rotation. When this happens, it might be time for a new scraper or a creative fix to fix the problem.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
