In the search of a mop that I like, I found the Bona was a great fit. Sadly, I was using it today, only for the 2nd time, I leaned it up against the counter for a moment and it fell over while I was at the other end of the kitchen and the plastic piece at the base broke in half. It is unrepairable. I am pretty upset about it and will now have to find a new mop. It should not be this fragile, honestly. I really love this mop and the products but so disappointed that it was so easily broken. I would recommend this to friends with a disclaimer.
