If you're not ashamed to admit that cleaning on a Saturday afternoon is the last item on your to-do list, you need to celebrate the RC Sugoi Mop. This convenient device is a [remote-controlled duster](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/automated-cleaning-device) that literally does your dirty work.

This plush mop head can zoom around your entire floor and sweep up debris or spills laying around. If you want your floor to sparkle, douse a little [cleaning liquid on the mop head](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/philips-oneup-electric-mop) before setting it down, then sit back and relax as you control and watch the mop [shuffle around your floor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roborock-qrevo-curv-2-flow).

If a handheld-controlled mop wasn’t enticing enough, the remote is even shaped like a vintage game controller, so house work can feel less like a chore and more like a game.
