Ever heard of a mop that's super simple, eco-friendly, and gets the job done without any fancy bells and whistles?

 

That's basically the Cuban mop in a nutshell.

They're a great lightweight option that's tough on dirt, and soft on your wallet - and the environment!

Why We Love 
Cuban Mops

Well, aside from being a powerful, inexpensive cleaning tool, we love it because our cleaners and customers do!

Their lightweight design makes carrying and storing them incredibly easy. With no buckets!
 
Plus, when combining the cleaning strength of microfiber and castile soap, there's not much a dirty floor could throw at this mop that it couldn't handle.
 
Our customers agree!
