Do you need a mop that gives a thorough clean, but you live in an apartment, townhouse or a home which has limited storage? The Oates Spin & Clean Compact Mop & Bucket Set is the mop for you!
The Oates Spin & Clean Compact Spin Mop & Bucket Set, is Oates’ first spin mop and our MoM’s love it.
Life gets messy, and most of the time, the mess ends up on the floor. Whether it’s your baby exploring solids, teenagers walking through the house with muddy sports shoes or the pets fur shedding all over the place, Oates want to help you #LaughAtTheMess, by making the clean-up easy with the Oates Spin & Clean Compact Spin Mop.
10 reasons we love the Oates Spin & Clean Compact Spin Mop & Bucket Set:
So compact & convenient – the mop and bucket set is easy to manoeuvre and the handle of the mop disassembles making storage a breeze!
The unique scrubbing roller keeps your home cleaner by agitating and removing dirt and hair from the pad and back into the bucket while rinsing – leaving the mop head ultra clean minimising dirt being transferred back onto the floor
The special locking mechanism means the pad can remain static if you prefer the mop head to remain static whilst cleaning
The circular mop head is foldable along one side which means getting into corners and close to skirting boards is so easy
The Oates Spin & Clean Compact Spin Mop & Bucket Set is suitable for all hard floor types
Dust, dirt, hair and grease are whisked away in seconds
No bending required – the handle-driven system allows you to control the amount of water required in the microfibre mop
The mop head is machine washable
The Oates Spin & Clean Compact Spin Mop & Bucket Set comes with an additional refill – so you’ll always have a clean mop head ready to go. Additional refills can also be purchased separately.
The design is ergonomic and durable – so when it comes to cleaning, Oates will make it easy!
I have recently been reviewing the Compact Spin Mop and Bucket Set that I purchased.
We have a fully tiled house and 2 young kids so our house requires very regular sweeping and mopping.
The compact Spin Mop and Bucket Set is an affordable, compact solution to mopping and works brilliantly. I love that I can store it under the sink when I’m not using it and that it can be assembled again in a few short seconds.
It cleans really well and the spinning feature leaves the right amount of water to mop with, without creating puddles on the floor. The mop head removes easily for washing and is also replaceable when the time comes.
Overall it is a great addition to our household cleaning routine and will be very well used from now on!

Honestly, I had doubts on just how convenient this mop and bucket set would be. Even opening the packaging and seeing the handle come in pieces made me doubt just how sturdy it would be. Testing it out with no water made me have a little freak out thinking it will just topple over and spill water everywhere but it just kept surprising me!
I love that you can basically use the mop and bucket with just one hand, no second hand or feet required! I am so used to the traditional mop and bucket, that having this.mop has been a game changer. Unlike traditional mops, this one is so easy to wring out the excess water, so I am not having to grab a towel or something to wipe it up. I just used the spinning function to dry it so I can keep wiping it up.
This mop and bucket has made it so much easier to clean and I don’t dread having to do this chore as much as I used to.

I’m absolutely in love with this mop! It has made life so much easier with my cleaning. I’ve always had one of those old school, heavy mops as having tried various squeeze mops they just didn’t clean as effectively as I had liked them to but this one actually does the job and is so much lighter.
We recently got a couple of dingoes who live in the house and they are quite messy (even though they are toilet trained) so I’m forever cleaning the floors.
I love how it packs away neatly as we have next to no room in our house for much so having something that packs away neatly is definitely a must.

I really enjoyed trying this product. It was super easy to get from Bunnings and at a reasonable price as well. Not heavy at all really compact so I can store anywhere (specially that I don’t have much room at home to store). Super easy and quick to put together. Easy to use a as well and the system works well, can tell its really good quality. Handy that the mop can be easily removed to put in the washing machine. Being able to get replacement is definitely a plus! Highly recommend it! Note: super super easy for kids! My 5 years old loved using it, so there you go, great way to get the kids to help with cleaning around while having fun!

I’ve thrown out my old spin mop to make room for my Oates spin and clean compact mop. I love how well it cleans my floors, and the fast dry cloth technology is brilliant. Especially with 2 toddlers running around. I found it very easy to use. I also like the helpful lip on the bucket for emptying the water at the end. It takes up much less room in my cupboard but still does an amazing job at cleaning our tiled house.
Oates is a brand a trust very much and will continue to use their cleaning products.

This mop was both amazing and average at the same time. Overall it does a great job at cleaning the floors. The bucket system worked very well and effectively wet the mop pad and then spun it all but dry just with a speed variation when submerging the mop head.
I loved the feature of the mop being able to fold in half to help you get into all your square edges around the house. I did however find the mop didn’t square out perfectly so you did miss small corners throughout the house due to its circular shape.
Overall the mop does a fantastic job of cleaning the floors I’d just recommend you sweep or vacuum first as unfortunately the head pushes larger dirt or food scraps around rather then them clinging to the pad.
On a side not my toddler was able to pump the handle and remove and replace the mop into the bucket. Super user friendly

I have been trialing the Oates Spin & Clean Compact Spin Mop & Bucket Set and it is a great cleaning mop, I have a large area that needs to be mopped and it’s a struggle to clean it as often as I’d like, this mop is really easy to use and I love the ability to clean my skirting boards at the same time it can make an irregular job an easy job. My only issue is I feel as soon put the mop back into the water I’m cleaning with dirty water so obviously I’ll change the water regularly to keep everything clean

This spin & clean mop from Oates is worth your money! It doesn’t leave wet dirty streaks since you can remove excess water by just spinning it.
Setting up was a breeze and will only take about 5 mins to put together the stick but even a child can do it. I love using it compared to a regular mop because you don’t have to wait long before it dries up. It also cleans the floor very well. I also like how you can remove the mop from the mop head and just chuck it in the washing machine for a quick clean.
Overall rating 5/5.

After trialling the new Oates spin Mop in our rental and the in-laws, I can say it made mopping the floors and cleaning the walls super easy! No bending needed which was great for the oldies, and having it spin clean the dirty water out I was surprised to see how much dirt was coming out! Bucket is super easy to store away so no more leaving it out to trip over or seeing it left in a corner! Was great to pull out for quick cleans but I loved that I could clean the skirting and walls with it too and it was super easy! Would definitely buy this mop again!

I found the mop to be good on my hard wood floors. I fell like the bucket could do with so wheels for the Elderly who can’t lift heavy things. The mop was easy to put together. It is easy to use just put your water and floor cleaner in the bucket and fill up to the line and away you go. I did recommend this to my sister and she went and got one for her house

So convenient and easy to store! I love that I don’t need to bend to reach for the hard parts of our house and even our ceiling! This cleans up easily and can be stored quickly. Perfect if you have a small storage or like me, don’t want to see it taking up too much space — less eye sore! Machine washable that saves me time – more family moments! I highly recommend this to anyone who loves to clean but hates the aftermath of cleaning the tools! A must for everyone!

Love the spinning action and how clean it gets each time in the bucket. Takes a little getting used to. Love the handy skirting board bend on one side. I found it did a really great job of cleaning my floor. Couldn’t believe how dirty the water was at the end! Great, easy pour bucket and with carry handle too. I’m actually happy to do some more mopping soon as it was a lot of fun to use. Even the kids insisted on wanting to give it a spin!

Mums Reveal Their Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips
Whether you’re a seasoned or first-time mum, protecting your baby’s delicate skin is right up there on the priorities list. Because when their skin is irritation-free, it really does make for a happier bub! Anyone who’s had to deal with nappy rash (me included!) knows it’s an inescapable mum truth.
Having skin irritation as an adult is super distracting and annoying. So just imagine what that’s like for our teeny babies and toddlers, who need to focus on sleep, eat and play. No wonder they can be so upset when they have nappy rash.
One thing you do need to ditch when it comes to nappy rash is mum guilt. It happens despite our best efforts. But it is helpful if you can get ahead of the game by doing as much as you can to try and prevent nappy rash in the first place.
We asked our hundreds of thousands of Mouths of Mums members for their tried-and-true, trusted nappy rash tips, and their responses came down to four key tips. So if you’re about to have your first baby, or your fifth, it’s worth popping on the kettle and reading through what’s helped other mums.
Fail-Safe Nappy Rash Tips From Mums
What we love about these tips is they’re perfect for mums and expecting mums, and they’re really simple to do. Everything from what to use and what to steer clear of, to helpful hints on caring for delicate baby skin.
1. Nappy Free Time
“As much free nappy time as possible. Lay baby on a blanket covered with a towel on the floor, without a nappy on, if possible in front of a warm sunny window.” – Joanne W.
We love nappy free time for newborn and toddlers (although it’s a lot harder to get them to stay in one place!). And while nappy free time is one of the most popular nappy rash tips among our mums, using the right nappy also plays a huge part in protecting against irritation on your baby’s skin. For example, Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants have clever Rapid-Dry™ Technology, which instantly absorbs for drier skin. And they’re perfect for day and night, with up to 12 hours of leakage protection.
2. Change Nappies Frequently
“For me, what worked on my two kids is not leaving them in soiled nappies too long. I definitely changed as soon as they were wet and let their skin air dry before placing a new nappy on. I would rather go through more nappies than have to deal with the uncomfortable rash they would feel.” – MoM Member
Frequent nappy changes are a fail-safe way to keep moisture, but it’s not always practical (babies just love to fill their nappies while you’re out and about!) Huggies Newborn Nappies are designed to help protect a baby’s delicate skin with a zinc-enriched layer*, clinically proven to help protect against skin irritation.
3. Use A Barrier Cream
“My mum put me onto Zinc and Caster Oil cream. It is FABULOUS stuff! It’s very thick and sticks like you know what to a blanket hehe I tried literally everything and this was the only stuff that helped.” – Trudes
Using a barrier cream was another really popular tip from our mums. But did you know that Huggies Newborn Nappies are the only nappy with a zinc enriched layer. The zinc oxide in Huggies Newborn Nappies is the same ingredient found in many nappy rash creams, which helps to protect against irritation with visibly less redness on skin. They’re also endorsed by the Australian College of Midwives and the number one choice in Australian hospitals.
4. Choose Gentle
“Don’t use scented wipes. Flannel and warm water is the best.” – Justine F
Using the most natural product possible for wiping a baby’s delicate skin to prevent irritation is a tip that’s been passed down from generation to generation – and it’s still a great one. But something lots of mums don’t consider that a nappy itself can help protect against skin irritation. Huggies Newborn Nappies are clinically proven* to help protect against skin irritation while Huggies Ultra Dry Nappy Pants keep up with wriggly little ones while providing superior dryness, making them perfect for active toddlers.
Nappy Rash Myths & Facts
🚫 Myth: Nappy rash is only caused by wet nappies. ✅ Fact: It’s true that moisture does play a role in nappy rash, it can also be caused by moisture friction, bacteria, and even what the nappy is made from.
It’s why choosing a nappy that’s specifically designed for skin protection is really important.
🚫 Myth: Cloth nappies are better at preventing nappy rash than disposable nappies. ✅ Fact: When it comes to nappy rash, there’s not really any need to compare cloth and disposable nappies, because it’s all about keeping baby dry. The longer baby can stay dry, the better.
🚫 Myth: Nappy rash creams are the only way to protect against irritation. ✅ Fact: A good nappy with a zinc enriched layer can also help to protect against irritation.

Mouths of Mums is working with Huggies to bring you this handy information.
*Zinc as Zinc Oxide. Tested on adult skin as a suitable substitute for baby skin. *#1 choice in Australian hospitals based on sales data.
My first born had terrible nappy rash and ulcers from acid urine and none of the specialists prescription creams did anything. I finally used Petroleum Jelly and it cleared up his skin very quickly and kept future rashes at bay. It is cheap and easy to use and works the best of anything.
Any redness can be resolved with a tub of Sudocrem. It’s a cream that smells like lavender. Very pleasant and usually works quickly within the first application.
Take it with you everywhere. It helps poo nappy changes. Just apply on bottom area to prevent future nappy rash. Your baby will be happy with it on. It doesn’t feel cold like a wet wipe.

I had issues with my son pooping a lot as a newborn. Sometimes it can be really hard to keep the rash at bay if you have a child that is constantly doing that. There is some acidity in the excrement and that can cause burning before it’s even been against their skin for long. I used to use paw paw cream on him and that worked best as a barrier.
Nappy Rash can be so raw and painful and i always worried so much when our babies had a bout of it. I remember trying so many things but always found good old petroleum jelly used regularly would help in keeping it at bay. There are some great suggestions in the article.
I did find that not all nappy rash creams are as good as each other. After trialing many brands I settled on Sudocrem as the best for me and my baby. Changing nappies frequently and air time is also very important.
There are so many common sense tip in this article and they are tips that we followed. We kept everything as natural as possible on very soft and sensitive skin. We went with plenty of nappy free times and we were very fortunate to not encounter issues with nappy rash.
This article describes very much what we always have done: frequent nappy changes, plenty of bare bum time, no fragrances also not in soaps and a good nappy rash cream. It can become more challenging when your child has diarrhea; in which case bare bum time becomes more complex and the skin more irritated in which the gentle washing with warm water, patting dry with a soft cotton flannel and good zinc cream is more important
Even though I agree that prevention is key, I also think it’s important to have a good barrier cream to hand to help at the first signs of trouble. There are lots of good brands, you can pick any really that suits your baby’s skin. But use it liberally when you need it!
Yay! First time seeing my own comment in an article! *happy dance*
But yes, i do swear by changing their nappies as soon as it’s soiled. It’s what worked for us for both children! We always go prepared and change either before going out, during or in the car boot if we really had to
Nappy rash is horrible and prevention is definately better than cure. This is a fantastic article with some great tips. Especially the changing of the nappy frequently. Unfortunately sometimes especially once they’re on solids and their poops get yucky a little nappy rash can be unavoidable in which case a small amount of sudocreme clears it up quickly.
We found that changing nappies frequently was key for us. And once the kids starting sleeping for long periods at night, we started using the really good quality nappies – Huggies, as it happens – while cheaper nappies were still okay for the day and frequent changes. Nappies do vary! .
This is a really great reminder that nappy rash can happen but there are some great tips to help try and avoid it. I use to do a lot of nappy free time with my daughter when we were home as she had sensitive skin and I layered the barrier cream on all the time, especially at night.
