ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A mop includes a substantially straight cylindrical shaft having first and second opposite ends. A mop head is secured at the first end of the shaft, and a substantially cylindrical foam rubber first hand grip is received over the first end of the shaft. Two pairs of laterally extending, circumferentially aligned, axially spaced, converging struts extend from diametrically opposed locations on an intermediate portion of the shaft. A bearing member is secured between each pair of struts. A sleeve is mounted for rotation around each of the bearing members. A foam rubber hand grip is secured to each sleeve, providing second and third hand grips disposed at equal axial spacing and lateral offset with respect to the shaft, and mounted for rotation about axes substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the shaft. The inventive construction facilitates manipulation of the mop head without causing callousing to the hands, or strain to the wrists and forearms of the user.
