A mop for the floor may seem rather uninteresting and boring. "Well, what can I choose there? Take any! "- for sure, this will be the reaction of your husband, regarding your doubts about the choice of a mop. But if you look at it from the other side, then there are many nuances and details in which you can not understand right away. If you still have not decided which mop is better to wash the floor, then we will try to help you with this difficult choice.

Let's start, perhaps, with the fact that a mop is a device for wet cleaning of a room, mainly in hard-to-reach places. Mops can differ among themselves according to the following criteria:

• on the length of the handle and the material from which it is made;
