Libman Freedom Mop

All my floors are hard surfaces, wood and lino and tile, and it's annoying to clean with a regular mop, sponge ones leave marks, the old fashioned rag mops scratch the wood floors, I've tried steam mops and even vaccum mops, but I picked up this at the grocery store (cheap) and it works better than anything else.
It's got a washable pad that's good for scrubbing, it doesn't scratch the floor, the small bottle container in the handle stores the washing liquid (you can put in anything you want, such as one cleaner for the kitchen and bathroom floor, and Murphy's for the hardwood floors - and if you haven't used all the liquid, just keep it in the bottle no drips so you waste less cleaning fluid and it's ready to go for a quick clean)
push the spray button on the handle to apply to the floor, you use less water and you aren't moving the mop in and out of a bucket of increasingly dirty water.
The head of the mop also swivels so you can clean tight spots, like between fridge and counter or around toilets. And the kids can use it to quickly clean up their own messes (and not make more of a mess) So yeah, recommending this mop if you need one, one of the best things I've ever bought.

That looks like it would be good for my floors (polished concrete yay). I have a Swiffer vac and a regular Swiffer to use the wet and dry pads on, but I really need something that lasts longer than those wet pads. And I really don't feel up to mopping this whole place!

How long does the pad last with one cleaner before it needs to be washed?

Depends on what you are cleaning, ie: how dirty, I can usually rinse out the pad a few times before I throw it in the wash, just doing reg cleaning around the house.
