Norwex Mop System Review: Is It Really Worth the Price?

If you’ve been researching the Norwex Mop System, you’ve probably had one big question:

Can a mop really be worth that much money?

I get it.

At first glance, spending over $100 on a mop can feel a little wild—especially when big-box stores sell mops for a fraction of that price.

But after using the Norwex Mop in my own home for years, I can tell you this:

This is not just another mop.

The Norwex Mop System completely changed the way I clean my floors.

No buckets.
No disposable pads.
No harsh chemical cleaners.
And no sticky residue left behind.

If you’re wondering whether the Norwex Mop System is truly worth the investment, here’s my honest review.

The reusable Norwex mop system is probably my top-favorite Norwex cleaning product.  

Before Norwex found me, I absolutely hated mopping my floors- the bucket of dirty, sloshing water, the dirty mop, the short handle… the list goes on.  I just didn’t like it.   For my “dry mopping” needs, I liked using the dry Swiffers for my wood floors, but hated that I was throwing them into the landfill & constantly having to buy more ($$$)! 

When I discovered the Norwex Mop System, I absolutely loved that I’m not clogging our landfills with more disposable products and that it does a far better job at “dry mopping” than the Swiffer ever did.  It’s fantastic to see how this mop will shine up wood floors!!  At several of my home shows, I’ve had hostesses who have previously used other cleaning products on their floors- these often leave residue that leads to streaks.  It is fun to watch our mop start to remove those residues and leave the floors prettier than ever!  And did I mention we mop with JUST WATER?!?  I recently got some feedback from a customer who has a lot of wood floors and recently purchased the mop system.  Here are her words:  “Sonya, I have two words for the mop….LOVE IT!!  I’m so glad I invested in it.  It works wonders.“

This “Norwex Mop System” comes with a dry microfiber mop pad, and a blue microfiber wet pad.  You simply dry mop first, use the rubber brush to brush any dirt/ debris into your trash can, and then put on the wet mop.  The wet mop has completely made the old dirty mop & bucket of water obsolete!!  Because of the incredible quality of our microfiber, this mop does an amazing job!  And it’s so easy to use!  It comes in 2 size choices:  the regular or the mini.  Most of my customers choose the full size, unless they have a very small amount of smooth flooring in their home.  The larger size covers the area much more quickly, yet is flexible enough to fit into very small spaces.  With our tile & wood floors, I always reach for my full-sized mop.    Other customers have commented how their husbands walked in and asked *what* they had done to the floors… they looked so great!

I love that the handle is telescopic, meaning no more bending over your mop.  And it locks into place so you can clean ceilings/ walls/ high windows.  And in general, men love this mop for its simplicity and taller adjustable handle.  The pads velcro on, making them very easy to put on/ off.

When you purchase the mop, be sure to also add the rubber brush to your order.  You’ll be glad you did.  This really helps keep the dry mop cleaner longer.  When you need to launder your mop pads, simply follow the same care instructions as for our other microfiber products.  NO bleach, NO fabric softener, NO linty loads.   Now remember, the wet mop pad has the naturally antimicrobial silver embedded into the microfiber to keep the bacteria count down between launders.   Most people find that they only need to occasionally wash them.  After you’ve used the Superior Dry Mop pad, simply use the rubber brush with short strokes to brush any dirt into the garbage.  To clean the wet pad after use, put a *small* drop of our Dish Soap, and rub the microfiber firmly against itself under running water.  Rinse well & hang to dry.  If you need a good place to store your mop, Norwex offers the mop hanger.

I don’t think you can give this mop it’s full due until you’ve actually *used* it!  The rubber brush, which is also fantastic for removing pet hair from furniture, dust from felt hats, dirt that accumulates in corners of carpeted rooms, and much more, is just $18.99.  Call me if you have any questions or would like assistance with placing your mop order.  We do accept MasterCard or Visa by phone or via PayPal.  And, did I remind you of the mop’s handle and base 5-year warranty?

Frequently Asked Questions About the Norwex Mop System

Is the Norwex Mop worth the money?

In short, if you have non-carpet flooring, love not having to fill something up or plug it in, and love the no-chemical approach, I would say a resounding yes. I have had mine for 17 years, so it is also very long-lasting.

Can you use the Norwex Mop on hardwood floors?

Yes, we use it on our hard wood (be sure to check your manufacturers recommendation for your specific flooring). One of my team members puts in high end wood flooring and tells all of his clients that the best option is this mop as it is just water and less prone to damaging the flooring compared with many mainstream wood floor cleaners. At the Eckel house, we love it on our wood floors. We wring it out very tightly before mopping, so the amount of water in the mop pad is quite minimal.

Does the Norwex Mop need cleaning solution?

No. I know it’s a bit mind blowing, but it is created to mechanically clean rather than chemically clean… with just the amazing fiber and water. If you must use a cleaner, the Norwex Multi-Purpose Cleaner diluted in a spray bottle or in the Norwex mop sprayer can be used.

How long do Norwex mop pads last?

They have a 2-year warranty, but in our experience, tend to last much longer. If using on a high-use base, I would plan to replace them every two years.

Are there downsides of the Norwex Mop System

Most of my customers are nuts about it, but here are some things to consider.

• upfront cost
• learning curve (for example, using the figure-8 motion- see my video above)
• corners can feel bulky if you don’t off-center the mop pad
• needs laundering
• need to use Rubber Brush to get debris off mop pad between uses
