Review on Nellie's Wow Mop: Cordless, Light-Weight, and Rechargeable Cleaning Powerhouse by Crystal Long

I LOVE the ease of use of this mop. I LOVE not having to rub my back with hard rubbing. I'm not exactly thrilled with the price, but the trade-off is that I literally follow this mop while it cleans for me. Specifications: Lithium battery Voltage: 2000mAh, 35W Working time: 55 minutes per hour Charging time: 3-5 hours Oscillation / vibration frequency: 1000 cycles per minute Cleaning tank (tank): 200 ml / 6.7 fl oz Lights: 2 small indicators on front of machine so you can see under furniture xx D) Machine Dimensions: 46.375" x 11.5" x 13.5" (H x W xx D) Machine Weight: 5.2 lbs Grip Area:* Squeegee disabled in vertical position Front to Back: 90° Side to Side: 100° (40° in each direction) What it replaces: WetJet and Mopping Robot 380t The main difference between a WOW Mop and a WetJet is how much effort is required is: none compared to being completely hand made. If your back hurts, buy a WOW Mop! As for the 360t, I love the dry mopping but I HATE the mopping function. Unboxing: Nellie's WOW Mop comes in a fairly small box (£13.375 "x 15.375"x 4.625"). The mop is disassembled but it takes less than 20 seconds for the handle to snap into place. Mine was partially charged so I could verify that it was actually on. However, as with all electronic devices, the manufacturer recommends fully charging them before starting work. First Use: Oh my word! I was so in love when I first got it up and running that I ended up cleaning the entire lower floor without even realizing it. This mop provides insane pleasure. It's weird to say that about a mop, but it's actually FUN! I only mopped the floors two days ago so there wasn't much to clean but I was impressed with how much this mop picked up. Battery Life: I was able to wash my entire house without charging between floors. I didn't run out of battery mopping the floor at home, so I drained it with a fully charged battery. I stopped after an hour because I had long since exceeded the allotted time and frankly I needed rest. It should be noted that all three indicator lights were still on after a full hour. Bad test: I put a bunch of shit all over the floor. Everything is washed! HOORAY! Okay, now when I say I tested a bunch of trash, I mean I smeared a bunch of stuff on the floor, got it nice and sticky, didn't soak up any liquid, and then did the WOW mop all over the floor . Thing. Everything for science! And without pre-cleaning or vacuuming. No need to change mop head halfway. I ran until the floor was clean. I switched to a new set of pads after cleaning everything to see how much I had left behind. To tell the truth: not so much. I usually didn't spray on the coffee grounds (again, the manual says that you should first vacuum up loose particles...). It took me about 12 minutes to go through two lines without changing mop heads. I reckon it would have taken 3 times as long with the WetJet and I would probably change pads every 4 messes. The 360t would just move it around without deleting anything. The second round lasted less than 4 minutes. I think I actually spent more time cleaning up the mess than cleaning it up, which is fantastic. Advantages: - Ease of use: almost no effort; Just go - Oscillation: does all the cleaning for you - Reusable: use any solution you want - Low/no running costs: you only pay for charging and the cleaning solution. Eventually you'll have to replace the pads, but they're only $20. Auto Power Off: Pull the handle to the vertical position and the machine will turn off. Do-it-yourself installation: ideal when furniture needs to be moved out of the way - Easy assembly - Easy-to-read charge indicators: easy to see in both dark and bright rooms; clearly shows when charging and when fully charged. Cons: - High initial cost (but you're paying for a mop that you just pick up...it does all the work!) - Charging port: The charging port location is inconvenient. You need to dig out the rubber cap from the front of the machine. The rubber cap is meant to keep liquids out as it's on the front... where the atomizer is located. I would have preferred a charger in the handle or on top of the base and a connector with no lid - Cleaning tank: Can't tell how much is left or how much more solution needs to be added before it overflows - Slightly larger footprint - Can't for storage being hung up (I get nervous leaving pads between quick cleans - Range of motion: Can't quite tilt the handle from side to side; sometimes I accidentally turn it off while trying to move the handle back and forth - Buttons on the handle: sprayer and power button are too close it's not a disadvantage let's say but since there's no exertion my heart rate doesn't increase which means I don't get any workout minutes I just splash some water on it
