I'm a clean freak and I swear by Amazon's viral 2-in-1 mop to clean my floors — and it's 30% off ahead of Black Friday

The JOYMOOP Mop and Bucket has more than 30,000 reviews on Amazon Canada. Is it any good? I put it to the test.

I was raised by a bonafide clean freak (hi, mom), and thus, I was taught from a very early age that cleanliness, at least in our household, was, in fact, next to godliness. As I am my mother's daughter, I tend to vacuum every other day and mop once or twice a week.

For many years, my mop of choice was the Swiffer WetJet Spray Mop. It's great on tough messes and leaves behind a fresh, clean scent. However, refilling the pads and cleaning solution adds up, so I was after a new mop that checked two important boxes: 1) it had to have reusable pads, and 2) it didn't require a specific cleaning solution.

After some research, I ended up with the JOYMOOP Mop and Bucket with Wringer Set. This versatile mop is a no.1 bestseller on Amazon Canada and ahead of Black Friday 2024, it's on sale for 30 per cent off. Is it worth the hype? Read my honest review below.

This mop and bucket system features two chambers: one for washing and one for drying.

$42 at Amazon

This year, Black Friday lands on Friday, Nov 29. However, the sale extends far beyond 24 hours for many retailers. Canadians can already shop 100s of early deals — click here to check out the best ones. Cyber Monday is on Monday, Dec. 2.


This 2-in-1 mop system features two separate chambers for washing and drying, so you're never left with too much leftover liquid on the floor. Between the chambers, there's a scraper blade that squeezes out the liquid from the microfiber pads and removes any remaining grit, hair, dust or dirt.

The mop head can rotate 360 degrees to tackle hard-to-get-to areas, including underneath furniture, baseboards and your walls. Its adjustable stainless steel handle extends from 26.5 to 50 inches, and the mop comes with three machine-washable microfiber mop pads.

If you're short on storage space, you'll be happy to know the JOYMOOP Mop and Bucket requires very little of it. All the pieces can fit inside the bucket, and the bucket itself takes up less space than your standard mop.

💸 Reasons to buy

  • The scraper is great: There's a lot I like about this 2-in-1 mop and bucket system. Firstly, it is straightforward to set up (and dismantle). Secondly, it works! If you find a traditional wringer mop to be a pain in the you-know-what, the scraper addition to the JOYMOOP mop is thoughtful and practical. I find it removes water far more efficiently than a wringer mop, and if you scrape it a few times, it won't drip or leave behind an excessive amount of water on your floor.

  • The mop pads: Additionally, I love how it has a mopping pad instead of a giant mop head. Cleaning your floors feels more akin to a Swiffer than a mop because you can be super precise.

  • Universal cleaning solution: Unlike a Swiffer and similar to a traditional mop and bucket, I also appreciate how you can customize your cleaning solution. You don't need to constantly re-buy a specific solution or mopping pads.

  • The pads are machine-washable: One of the main reasons I wanted this mop is because I wanted to be able to throw the pads into the washing machine. They wash beautifully (I air dry them to avoid any possible shrinkage), and because they're microfiber, I feel comfortable throwing them in with other towels or dish rags.


✋ Reasons to avoid

  • It needs a third compartment: There's very little I dislike about this mop, however, I do wish there was a way you could separate the clean and dirty water. The scraper scrapes the grime back into the clean water, so if your floors are particularly filthy, you may need to go over them more than once to feel satisfied with the clean.

  • It's best for bigger jobs: The mop requires a minimum amount of water to be fully submerged. Because you need to fill the bucket every time you mop, it's better to use it for an entire floor, thorough mop rather than a quick clean-up.


💬 What reviewers say

The JOYMOOP Mop and Bucket has racked up more than 30,800 reviews and a 4.4-star rating on Amazon Canada. It's a No. 1 bestseller, and reviewers praise its space-saving design, easy assembly, and effective cleaning.

It's "so easy to use," writes one shopper. It's "easy to ring out" and is especially good if you have back issues, as there is "no bending involved."

The bucket is "lightweight" and "not cumbersome," unlike other clunky buckets, says another. The system for rinsing and drying the mop is "really well made."

It's the "perfect house cleaning tool," and the two-compartment design is "very smart," adds a third shopper. You can even use it "vertically on walls to clean hard-to-reach areas!"

While many reviewers say it's a "sleek little" device that's "incredibly convenient" and efficient, others agree the one "design flaw" is that the dirty water empties into the clean side. "You're rinsing your mop in the dirty water," according to one reviewer.


🛍️ Do you need it?

If you are sick and tired of your wringer mop or single-use cleaning kit, the JOYMOOP Mop and Bucket is a practical, reusable and affordable option — especially at its current early Black Friday sale price. It's the sweet spot between a Swiffer and a traditional wringer mop: It provides a thorough clean, won't leave pools on your floor and the mopping pads are machine-washable. However, the mop needs to be submerged in quite a bit of water and there's no compartment to separate the clean and dirty water — two things to consider before placing your order.
