Miracle Mop

sunshine 919 — Sun, 03 Jan 2016 18:24:28 GMT

For those who are interested HSN has the Miracle Mop as a TSV. Joy has it priced the same price as 25 years ago, due to the anniversary of the mop. I was not watching Q at the time she was on so I have never tried it. It is an updated version. In many colors and $19.95. I do remember seeing Joy on the view a few years ago and she mentioned then that the mop sold after she demonstrated it. Are there any Q viewers who saw that. I think it is a big part of the movie, which I have not seen. Like her or not some of her items are hits and some are misses. I love her readers, pillows, one piece sheet system and I do have hangers. Never heard why she left Q. Enjoy ladies and have a great Sunday.

I have had too many self-inflicted black eyes from mop handles.................

I bet she sells a bunch of them - she's quite the salesperson - always successful with her TSVs. I think it was smart of her to bring it out again now after the movie.

Hoosier, it was a very smart move and last night she had already sold over 35,000. I guess it really is a miracle mop because accoring to the clips I have seen no one thought she could do it. And look at her now 26 years later and people are still purchasing it. Good for her.

I'm sorry I did not think of that. I do not know how to transfer from there to here. But if someone sees the post they must be on some type of computer you can go to the HSN's website.

@sunshine 919I never saw Joy on QVC and never bought her mop. In fact, I' e never seen her present the mop on HSN either, but I did see the movie on New Year's Day. The movie tells why she left QVC, but who knows if the movie is accurate or if their writers changed details to make a story work?

I'm not discussing their story line, so that those who go won't have anything spoiled and like me just didn't know her story at all, so the fictionalized pieces, whatever they were, didn't affect me.

While it might be a perfectly okay product (and one which made Joy M. a billionaire), there is nothing like hours and days of on air programming of the very mop infomercials we all tried to avoid in the 80s and 90s.. lol Now its like informercials are the resurrected "Tonight Show" with Johnny Carson for some people.

While home shopping has its place and is here as a massive force, some channels and vendors are waaaaay too informercial-ly for my tastes. And as if adults need HOURS AND HOURS of instruction as to how to use a wring MOP???? If people are so clueless, they really shouldn't even have access to a credit card (or a telephone...or a television set).

I'm sure this new version of the mop is tied into the new movie "JOY" based on her life. I mean, I'm sure it was rolled out as her own company's tie in to the attention that movie will bring as people all wonder who the Miracle Mop lady is. It took nearly 30 YEARS to otherwise bring essentially the same mop base in a 2.0 version? I mean, people aren't really THAT gullible, are they?

On air sales (sales in general) is an art. And some go about it like carnival barkers - yiping about their product till people order it just to hopefully shut them up.

I prefer a subtler approach (if you couldn't tell). It's a mop. I'll buy it or I won't. You don't have to wrestle me to the ground in order to beat me down in a mission to make a sale. In fact, I make certain NOT to buy such products...just cuz such sales tactics turn me off completely.

It would be a miracle mop if it cleaned by itself.

I hate mops. I use a microfiber mop in between cleanings. I either use my Floormate or my floor steamer. Aldi's has their version of the spin mop & bucket in their ad starting this Weds. the 6th. for $19.99. Includes spin bucket, 2 mop head refills and telescoping handle.

@sunshine 919 Happy New Year! The TS Mop is even a better value if you use the $8 refund for the magazine. I got the gold before it sold out. Over 135,000 mops have been sold as of this time per the website!

Just went to Amazon and ordered the Twist and Shout after looking through reviews on line for mops.

Still love my Floormate by Hoover. Picks up dirt, mops and than dries. Presto time to have a seat in the Lazy boy.

Enjoy your new purchases!!

The Miracle Mop was my very first purchase with the Q many, many years ago. My dh used this mop for years. It finally gave out about a year ago. I certainly got my moneys worth out of it!

Chi-town girl — Sun, 03 Jan 2016 23:04:41 GMT

Can anyone please comment on the life cycle of the mop head? Does it hold up well to machine washing? How long did yours last before replacing it?

I'm debating on buying a backup mop head now or waiting. Thanks!!!

Where do you wring it out? In all the demonstrations I've seen, Joy wrings it back into the bucket which I presume has clean water and cleanser in it. Please pardon my ignorance if I missed something. I'm thinking of getting the one at Aldi's. Thanks so much. docsgirl

The original mop head was cotton. The new on is microfiber. I would think the microfiber would last longer than cotton...especially after being washed and bleached. Sorry, I don't know if I helped or not. I ordered the extra mop head just to have on hand when I need it...you never know
