‘I gasped out loud’: Shoppers reveal why Kmart’s $4 gadget is a gamechanger

A new cleaning gadget has taken Australia by storm, sparking a wave of opinions and curiosity among shoppers.

What seemed like an ordinary addition to the retailer’s collection has quickly become a hot topic, with many claiming it’s a total gamechanger.

But not everyone is convinced – and the debate over its effectiveness is heating up.

The mop, which is designed to make countertop cleaning easier, caught the attention of one social media user, Kevin Chang, who shared a video demonstrating its effectiveness.

In the video, Kevin poured coffee on the countertop, then used the mop to swiftly clean up the mess.

He squeezed the mop out in the sink, which left viewers impressed.


‘I watched with anticipation. I thought okay when it’s soaked through... then absolutely gasped out loud when you could squeeze it out,’ one woman commented on the post.

‘Ok I’m buying this but for our new puppies’ mess,’ another person added.

Many were quick to jump on the bandwagon, calling the mop a ‘complete gamechanger.’


One shopper even mentioned how the mop was ideal for people who struggled with the sensation of wet cloth.

‘Adds to cart immediately,’ she wrote.

The mop proved to be especially useful for those who wanted to avoid touching wet sponges, with one person calling it ‘perfect.’


However, not everyone was convinced by the new product.

‘My sponge does the exact same thing,’ one person remarked.

‘Why do people get ridiculous gadgets when there’s literally paper towel,’ another asked.

Others preferred traditional cleaning methods, with one shopper suggesting ‘Towels and washable clothes are good too.’
