A compact scrubber with a path of about 12 to 16 in is the replacement for a mop in restrooms, kitchens, convenience stores and classrooms. The smallest weigh under 30 lb and can be carried between floors, but their tanks hold a gallon or two, so they suit spaces of a few thousand square feet. Larger compact machines carry 4 to 7 gal and weigh 90 lb or more. Prices run from about $1,000 for import models to over $4,000 for the major commercial brands, some of which back their machines with five-year parts warranties.
