Mop Hunting: A Homemaker's Tale

So I've spent an inordinate number of hours researching mops. I never mop. Other than literally getting down on my hands and knees to clean up specific spills, I only mopped our kitchen floor at our last apartment once in the year that we lived there. And that was right before we moved out.

But I did vacuum on more than one occasion... And now we live in a house with wood floors.

I need a good mop.

My decision has come down to these three options:
1) the Mystic Maid - the mop claims to "glide on air" and comes with a wet/dry microfiber pad $33 + a poofy, dry only dusting pad $13
2) the Bissell floor duster $20 + the Eureka Enviro floor steamer $72
3) the Bissell floor duster $20 + the Rubbermaid Reveal mop $30

In the midst of my research I happened across a giveaway for the rubbermaid reveal, which is what prompted this post. So I think I'll give that a go and defer this decision until the conclusion of that contest ;-)
