Splatter? Just pour slower.

I pour our spin mop water down the laundry room sink. I suppose if I didn't have one, I'd use a toilet instead.
My mother-in-law has a Rainbow vacuum that filters using water. She has to pour her vacuum's water out down the toilet but through a strainer.

Just use a swifter mop for easy use and clean up. Done.

Oh please, don't with that ridiculous Swifter mop. That tiny thing just pushes dirt around. So unhygienic! It's for lazy folks.
At least with the old fashion mop and bucket, you can refill it with clean water after each room. There's nothing that gets the floors cleaner.

Huh? Sinks are also plumbing

And what debris? It's just dirt from the floor, you put worse things down the toilet and shower daily.

How so? It’s going down the drain - then you do a quick rinse after. Probably less nasty than raw meat germs.


People who say things are “nasty” are rarely logical about it. They just grew up in a house where people were shamed.

I don’t want to make that much trash


I use a reusable microfiber cloth on the swiffer. I rinse out in the sink with hot water while mopping and wash the cloth when done. I have a spray bottle with vinegar and water that I spray on the floor. No trash, no bucket of water, rain floors. Win-win!


This seems like more work and not as good as a bucket.

Toilet, bath sink, yard, all is fine. I wouldn't do it in kitchen but if no other option, would clean and disinfect really well.

And I was converted to the spin mop just a few weeks ago after years of using a Swiffer WetJet an a Bona thing. I thought I was cleaning. The spin mop bucket is awesome. I got a new version that keeps the "to be used" water separate from the rinse water.


Me too!!! I am obsessed with mopping now, and hadn’t done it before (have cleaners come every 2 weeks). I dump the water in the kitchen sink, then wipe it down with a Clorox wipe.

People are mopping a room with a sink or toilet, and then carrying the bucket of water up and down stairs to a different floor to dump it?

If I mop the kitchen, then I dump it in the kitchen sink. If I mop the bathroom, then I dump it in the toilet (because I don't have to lift the bucket as high). If I mop the laundry room . . . I am sure you see a pattern.
