Do I need any special equipment to use this or will a bucket and a mop work?

I really don't recommend a bucket and mop for this product. I use a Clorox ReadyMop, which I already had. I just replaced the liquid in the bottle with the Bona product. Bona is great for laminate floors, which I have. Use as little Bona as possible on laminate floors. A Swiffer Wet Jet mop would work, too.

You can use whatever but life is easier if you use a Bona mop and cartridges of cleaner

You need a spray bottle and a microfiber type of cleaning pad mop -- we use the Bona Kemi Usa WM710013358 Micro Plus Stone Hardwood Cleaner Kit. We spray the Bona lightly on the floor and then use the microfiber padded mop to clean it away, Very easy!

We spray the floor and use a clean mop with hot water (wrung out) to clean with. You could use a swiffer too

A regular vacuum works great. The shop vac hose will be too big in circumference.

Yes it does. Mop system will work well for female. However, a man will ware out the plastic gears quick. Also the bucket needs to be on wheels.

no. it is just a steel model. all you can do is position the bucket manually.

Hi, Fred, No, sorry, just one tub. That separation idea is a good one, though.This is a really, nice sturdy mop bucket. But I think you should invent your idea.

I only use the bucket, however in the manual it says: you can use a 12 mm hose to attach to the connector (which comes with the unit) - Hope this helps!

Yes, any regular mop or broom stick can be used with this mop. Great mop to have, very absorbant

I purchased a mop bucket with a wringer built in made by Rubbermaid for a very reasonable price of about $11 which works great. However you can wring it out with your hands easily if necessary.

No, you need a special 3000 psi hand pump, scuba tank, or high pressure air compressor. I use a hand pump.

The mop itself is able to be used. They have separate cleaners recommended for both but I don not see an issue with using one cleaner if you do not wish to order both.

Yes, you don't have to buy anything once you buy the mop. Except I would highly recommend distilled water! I've looked at the reviews from all the other mops and none of them looked like I would like them as much as this one. Hope this helps!

You need a big bucket. it drips a large volume of water so a small pan will not be enough. I used a storage bin and it filled up about 3 inches in 12 hrs.

It can be used either way. It does not have any kind of feet so the bottom will sit flat on the floor... The only problem there is if you have it on a floor you mop you will have to be careful so they don't get wet. You would have to find a way to stabilize them if they are on carpet. They do not have much depth

I use a wet piece of cloth (or whatever you prefer) and attach it to the mop.

No. Not without a ton of extra work. You'd be better off on you hands and knees with a brush and bucket.

You can use either. I started using the bucket only on mine, but it filled very quickly. It took < 24 hrs to fill the bucket then it goes into kind of a standby mode waiting for the bucket to be emptied. I had to switch the the hose (by default it works with just the bucket, but you can attach the drain hose and water goes there instead).
