This mop is so easy to use. Simply pull to remove the dispense bottle, fill it with water or with a cleaning solution, attach, spray, and go!

What’s great about this lightweight mop, is that it gives you full control of how much water is being sprayed on the floor.

Once your mop refill is ready for a clean, you can simply pop it in your washing machine, so it’s fresh the next time you use it. Refills are also available to purchase separately.

  • I hate mopping but this mop is amazing!

    Usually I hate mopping, because it’s such a process to set up, and worry about the bucket of water, so I try and put it off for as long as possible. The Ezy Spray mop was great because it was so quick to use, I didn’t have to worry about filling up and carrying buckets of water around, and it was efficient at cleaning the dirt and grime and didn’t leave streaks. Brilliant!

  • Excellent quality spray mop!

    I absolutely love my Oates Ezy Spray Mop! It’s so easy to use and I love that I can efficiently and effectively clean my floors using only water! I have quite a few tiled floors in my home and I like to keep the floors clean all the time, but it can be a chore to bring out my mop and bucket every time it needs a clean. This spray mop has been perfect for those in-between cleans and has been such a godsend for my family over the last month whilst we had tradies working at our home bringing muddy footprints inside the house! The mop is so easy to use, just spray and go, and my home is always looking fresh and clean! I highly recommend this spray mop, it’s excellent quality and does a great job!

  • Oates, it really is Ezy!

    I’m thoroughly impressed with this spray mop. Others I’ve owned previously have had weak spray power that hardly dribble on the floor, the Oates Ezy Spray Mop has a spray that packs a punch. It’s more than enough for some good back and forth sweeps before another spray is needed. This mop has been a dream to use in the area around the high chair. It has easily cleaned up spaghetti sauce, yoghurt splashes, and avocado streaks just to name a few. It’s lightweight, has an easily removable fill bottle, and is compact and fits in a small nook in the bathroom. I would absolutely recommend the Oates Ezy Spray Mop to anyone wanting a convenient, effective spray mop for in-between cleans.

  • Amazing spray mop for in between deep cleans

    Wow I am in love with this spray mop. Super easy to use. Just fill the canister and pop back on and then attach the removable pad and you are good to clean. Just squeeze the trigger to spray and then mop away. It cleaned my floor really well and I love that the pad is reusable by washing it in the machine. I love that it is lightweight for those quick cleans in between getting the big heavy mops out. Highly recommend it and I will continue to use this product for ages.

  • Quick clean

    Easy to use and handy to bring out for a quick clean around the house. The plastic bottle and handle does not feel like it will last. But still good product to have when you don’t have time to mop the whole house and just need to quickly clean a spot right then.

  • Fantastic mop

    I was pleasantly surprised with this mop. I didn’t think it could handle the state of my floors and all the food and grime but it got through it all. I thought it would struggle removing the tough marks that I have trouble removing with other mops but this mop did it with ease. I absolutely love this mop. Plus it’s so easy to use and hassle free. Now I actually like mopping.

  • Fantastic Mop for tiles!

    Oates EZY mop is fantastic! It glides over the tiles with ease. The large cleaning pad is ideal for large areas and the water spray is easy to use and uses just the right amount of water. I didn’t need to use any nasty chemicals, just water and lavender disinfectant.

  • Oates you've done it again

    My mum loves this. The fact you don’t need to lug a heavy bucket full of hot water around makes mopping floors so much easier. Mum is 93yo so she loved this bit. Great cleaning ability for such a small light weight unit. Easy to use so I’m more inclined to want to mop the floor

  • So Easy & Convenient

    This is the easiest and most convenient mop I have ever used. I will never go back to the old mop & bucket again! It is lightweight and so easy to maneuver under and around furniture. The built-in spray bottle is easy to fill & enables total control of the amount of water you use, meaning no more waiting for the floors to dry while trying to keep the cats off them. I was able to mop my tiled areas (Main entrance, hallway, kitchen, dinning, lounge, bathroom, ensuite & laundry) with less than half a bottle & in a fraction of the time it normally takes me. I was very impressed with it’s performance & I would recommend it to anyone wanting an effective, convenient mop that is ready to go anytime it’s needed, whether it’s for a full house clean or just a quick spill clean-up.

  • A versatile mop to love! Don't just think of floors - think about how this handy mop can help clean your windows, doors and walls!

    The Oates Ezy Spray Mop is a game-changer for anyone looking to maintain clean floors without the hassle of traditional mopping. Its lightweight design allows for easy maneuverability, making it perfect for quick touch-ups or thorough cleans. The mop features a built-in spray mechanism that eliminates the need for a bucket, allowing you to simply fill the container with water or your favourite cleaning solution and get started. I personally love added in a drop of lavender oil!

    It’s also not just for floors — I’ve been using the mop to help me get to those hard to reach places like the tops of windows! I have large glass windows and sliding doors and have even been using the mop to clean my windows quickly and without streaks or smudge marks!

    Another top 3 things I like about using the mop and tips for other users:
    1. It’s a go to for quick clean-ups: perfect for addressing spills immediately, preventing stains and making clean-up a breeze. No need for a bucket or heavy lifting, and it’s easy to keep handy/stored away.
    2. Use the right solution: Experiment with different cleaning solutions to find what works best on your floors. The microfibre pad effectively lifts dirt and dust, leaving surfaces sparkling clean without streaks. Be mindful not to put too much detergent or cleaner in, less is more!
    3. Machine washable pads: After use, toss the microfibre pads in the washing machine. This not only keeps them fresh but also extends their lifespan! Much easier to clean than conventional mops or other mop heads.

  • Oates EZY Spray

    The Oates ezy spray mop is great. I enjoyed using it for a quick clean after the kids. I like the fact that I didn’t have to lug a bucket of water around or worry about the kids getting into said bucket!
    The handle was long enough so I didn’t have to bed as much. The mop pad is machine washable making it environmentally friendly and great value.

  • My new best friend

    This mop is so handy! With a baby that has just started solids and a toddler at home, there are always little messes and spills to clean up and it is so handy being able to clean properly without having to do a full mop and bucket job. Would definitely recommend. So easy to throw the mopping pad on the washing machine too

  • Go to as a busy mum

    My baby girl recently started solids and we are doing baby led weaning (BLW). For those who know, it is MESSY. She throws everything on the floor. This mop has been a life changer because I can just give the floor a quick spray to clean up any food that’s been left on the ground.

  • Overall a good product

    We have previously had a similar mop by Koh. The Oates sprays a good amount of water and is lighter than the Koh which is great, however it doesn’t hold as much liquid and feels a bit cheaper than the Koh. You also can’t hang it on a door hook. Overall i would recommend it, especially for anyone who hasn’t used Koh.

    My absolute favourite mop so far. I love everything about it. It’s light weight, it easily spins in all directions, it’s absorbent, the spray is a much better option than a bucket, plus I use oils so it smells nicer, I can throw the pad in the washing machine and the best part, it’s so easy the kids can use it.

  • I love this mop

    I never thought I’d say this about a mop – but I loved this. It just makes cleaning the floors so much, much, easier! Even my kids can do it with less drama than if a bucket of water is involved. It’s incredibly easy to fill the reservoir, and then to squirt out just what you need as you go. The squirty bit places the water/cleaner exactly where you needed. I loved the fact that there was no bucket of water for kids to bump and spill; and I REALLY loved that the floor dried so much faster than with our previous mop. As a bonus, cleaning the mop head was also so easy. Just took it off, tossed it in the wash, and then put it back on. This is absolutely the best mop I’ve ever used.

Buon Appetito! A Busy Mum’s Guide To Memorable, Simple Summer Entertaining

I fondly remember slow, summer afternoons with family and friends gathered around a table of delicious finger-food during my childhood – the adults chatting and laughing, the kids pretending they understood the jokes. My parents had continued their Mediterranean traditions long after settling in Australia – and the simple joy of an effortlessly elegant gathering was one of my favourites.

What I don’t remember is my parents ever being stressed about the gatherings. It all just seemed to ‘come together’. Ah, how times have changed!

There’s something about the Italian style of entertaining that’s still so alluring in our fast-paced family lives. The idea of La Dolce Vita: a sweet life surrounded by family, friends, food and minimal fuss. Which is why we’ve enlisted the help of the entertaining experts at Sandhurst to share easy tips for elegant, memorable summer get-togethers.

We also asked our community of mums to share their tried and true, easy summer entertaining ideas, and we can’t wait to share them with you!

Euro-Inspired Entertaining

Sandhurst

Before we dive into the delicious world of sumptuous, simple summer entertaining, it helps to know a little about the inspiration behind our guide. And that’s the concept of Italian entertaining – where time is taken to lovingly grow ingredients, before enjoying them with those you love.

Established in 1988, Sandhurst was born from the time-honoured traditions of generations of the family behind the brand – a proud Italian Australian family passionate about quality produce sourced from world’s best growers.

At the helm of Sandhurst are brothers Mimmo and Ray Lubrano, who live and breathe the impeccable ingredients that become the centrepiece of so many gatherings in Australian family homes.

“Tradition is what we stand for. We’re custodians of Italian values,” explained Mimmo. “When we go to Italy we see it in our grandparents, our parents came from Italy in the 50s. The tradition is a set of values: honesty, teamwork, participation, family – all the things you would associate with Italian family are the values.”

And it’s these beautiful values that make summer gatherings in Australia an extension of the European table.

Easy Summer Entertaining Starts With … Time Saving Secrets!

A sweet summer of entertaining doesn’t need to be stressful. In fact, it shouldn’t be. It’s a chance to spend time with loved ones. To press pause on life and make memories. And it can be simple! So here are some really easy tips for making your home the place where everyone wants to gather this summer.

Create An Entertaining Kit

Whether it’s pre-planned or you’ve had friends or family drop-in, having a few things ready to go immediately melts away any stress. Here are some things to include in a summer entertaining kit:

  • A red table cloth: It instantly says festive!
  • Some platters and serving dishes
  • Candles
  • Some quality antipasto ingredients that simply need to be decanted and enjoyed!

Many Hands Make Light Work

As mums, we tend to be our own worst enemy when it comes to delegating tasks. But remember, a summer of entertaining is about creating memories – not perfection. So let the kids help, and accept offers from your guests who’d like to bring something along to share.

“It can be overwhelming, so just delegate, and prepare. I do one dish prep per day and pop them in the freezer. Then they just need to be heated up. Let the kids do the decorating for you – plus keeps them busy!” – MoM Member Kirsty

Decorate With Happiness

There’s no need to pull out your finest crystal to pull off an elegant get together. Take a look around your home and garden to see what will bring your table to life. A bowl of lemons is a gorgeous addition, as is a bunch of gum leaves. Keep it simple and understated.

Finger Food For The Win

Nothing says simple summer elegance more than a charcuterie board (or three!). When my friends and our families get together, it’s our go-to – every family is asked to ‘bring a board’. Some do savoury and some sweet, so we’re covered for a long afternoon of catching up.

“Food wise, I keep it simple by doing cold deli meats, cheeses, fresh fruits and veggies.” – MoM Member

But just because boards are easy to put together, doesn’t mean they can’t ooze elegance. And that comes down to including quality ingredients. Choosing Sandhurst products is the easiest way to guarantee the highest quality ends up on your table. We love the premise behind the brand: from our family to yours – it invokes that nostalgic feeling of shared stories, history, gatherings and family.

La Dolce Vita!

A summer of sophisticated entertaining doesn’t have to be hours and hours of work. We don’t want it to be! By grabbing some beautiful ingredients to fill your pantry next time you’re shopping, you’ll know that at a moment’s notice you’ll have everything you need for a Euro-inspired gathering. No fuss, but plenty of substance and style!

  • We often have homemade pizza nights aka fakeaway night! And my pizza is always on a low carb Pizza base with roasted and sundried tomato and capsicum. My fav combo with grilled chicken and a swirl of peri peri mayonnaise! Making our own is always better than takeaway versions and healthier!

  • Looked so good I couldn’t wait – Dove in off the end of my bread baton and swirled around in a couple of cheesy dips only to finish up at the Sandhurst stackers and sun-dried olives, who needs a Holiday when there is one in the kitchen, I can take any day.

  • I have been buying Sandhurst Kalamata Olives, Sandhurst Semi-Dried Tomatoes, Sandhurst Baby Capers, Sandhurst Sicilian Green Olives for years as our kitchen staple adding that extra flavours to our dishes. I buy Sandhurst products for Gift Baskets as presents for family and friends and they love this idea as I add a chopping board and a knife and crackers and cheese for a celebration of flavours.

  • I have been a purchaser of Sandhurst goods ever since they first appeared on supermarket shelves and still buy it to this day. The Sandhurst brand is the best without a doubt. This year I have not been able to find the Sandhurst cheese stuffed baby capsicums anywhere. I have tried to get on the Sandhurst site, but no luck with what they make. Help – these are such a wonderful addition to a salad.

  • I Love a good charcuterie board. I Love all the different options all on the one board. I love to do a chocolate board when we have guests over, it’s a fun way to do dessert after dinner. The kids love seeing everything layed out so they can pick and choose.

  • This is great for the grandchildren they love them as they use them as finger food and make up their own meal and use plenty of ingredients including meat and cheese on the dips and crackers. We keep it simple with the Sandhurst’s products as it is a meal in every jar and the kids love them.

  • This looks like the perfect relaxed way to have a picnic! I am loving the idea of this! Just bring along lots of fillings and plenty of cheeses and breads and of course a little alcohol and you’re all set. This sounds like the perfect way to catch up with friends!

  • Charcuterie boards are the absolute best! We do these so often in the warmer months because there’s something for the whole family. People pick and choose what they like and there’s no complaints because there’s so many different options to choose from, everyone is happy. It’s such a simple stressful way to make dinner.

  • I absolutely adore finger food and this style of feeding people when we have family and friends at our home; or when we go out for a picnic, bbq or get together. These types of food are so easy to source and to buy and to prepare and to happily eat.

    • Yes I agree, finger foods are easy and yummie ! And you can assemble a healthy enough plate (certainly when you add salads, cheeses, nuts, fruits, boiled eggs, olives and rustic breads) that it can certainly can replace a meal (either lunch or dinner). Everyone happy and no hours of preparation in the kitchen :)

      • Also; the other bonus is less mess to clean up when cutlery is not needed. Finger food is the best for laid back and relaxed get togethers. There is always such a clam and relaxed feel to a finger food meal without the need for any fancy and stuffy table settings.
