WrinGo Automatic Sponge Machine – Professional Grout Cleaning Tool

The WrinGo Automatic Sponge Machine (formerly known as Squeeze-EZ) is a time-saving, professional-grade tool engineered to streamline grout cleanup and reduce installer fatigue. Built with tile professionals in mind, this automatic sponge wringer improves job site productivity by delivering perfectly damp, debris-free sponges every time — no hand wringing required.

Whether you're cleaning up after a backsplash install or grouting 1,000 sq ft of flooring, the WrinGo reduces mess, cuts down on labor, and keeps your sponges at ideal moisture levels for a clean, streak-free finish.

Key Features:

    Removes grout particles from sponges before wringing, improving cleaning consistency.

    Extracts maximum water for the perfect sponge dampness—no streaking, no over-wet surfaces.

  • Durable Stainless Steel Construction
    Corrosion-resistant and built to last through tough job site conditions.

  • Ergonomic, Labor-Saving Design

  • 25-Foot Power Cord

  • Fits Standard 5- and 6-Gallon Buckets
    No need for custom tubs or containers—plug and play with your existing gear.

  • Bi-Directional Operation
    Forward and reverse toggle switch gives you full control in any workspace.

  • Safety Lock Switch
    Activates only when properly seated on a bucket rim—added protection on active job sites.

Hand Saver!

I wish I had this for my last shower I did. My hands were so tired of wringing out the sponge I asked my brother just to ring out sponges and hand the clean one to me. But they weren’t consistent in wetness. Then I found my new wrist/hand saver. The WrinGo!!! By far one of the best purchases ever made despite its cost. Way cheaper than carpel tunnel or arthritis problems for me down the road. I highly recommend this for anyone that does tile work.

This thing is a game changer!

This thing is legit! I’ve tried a few grouting systems over the years and always went back to the good ole sponge.The sponges are not too wet and it cleans them out really well on the initial wash. I wish it could be used for epoxy grout but I understand why not. Definitely worth the money

I love the concept of the machine

I love the concept of the machine. The first time a used it, it actually acted as if the motor was weak. The sponge got stuck in it and stopped running. Reverse didn’t work either. I was able to pull it out. It then started running again but really Boggs down when sponges go thru it. I haven’t used it since then so I can’t say anymore about it.

Game changer

Been doing tile for over 20 years and never realized how much time was wasted ringing out sponges until I used this Machine. Couldn’t believe how much faster grouting was while using the ringo. Will never grout without it again . Also no pain in my hands anymore after grouting. Wish I had one 20 years ago . Some complain about the price but I would say it’s worth every penny.

It is an xmas gift for my husband

its good but doesnt take off the core. just the surface. need to shove it in couple times. also wish it had a automatic sensor so i dont have to turn the switch on and off everytime. but its good. i like it.

It’s excellent!

Great but unnecessarily expensive. 500 usd or 700 canadian. Plus 100$ ups shipping. Then 136$ for customs 😱 speeds the grout process 30%. It does make the grouting process way more fun then anything. However you do lose time washing the machine after every use too..

Do not grout without this machine

I have been doing tile for 23 years. I own a tile storeand a Construction business. I Have several crews doing tile daily on all scales of production. I'm always looking for inventive ways to complete projects effectively and increase my bottom line! I purchased this for my crews and I will say conservatively we decreased our grout time by 35-40%. I would say 50% or more, but I dont want to set the expectation too high. I've never endorsed a product before, but this is a game changer and will benefit you or your company greatly! We dont have to wring out sponges anymore! This is something I wish I had doing 23 years ago while I was grouting Terra Cotta with Polyblend. Get one and you can thank Russo for it later.

Sponge machine

I love my new sponge machine. I would recommend 10 out of 10 to any Tile Contractor.
I’ve been installing tile and grouting for over 20 years and have recently started suffering from carpal tunnel. I can already tell that this machine is a game changer both in terms of speed and helping to reduce my symptoms of carpal tunnel. I would be willing to a video of me using the machine and talking about how much I’m enjoying the benefits of the machine. Perhaps we can talk about a discount on purchasing another one pending me makinga promo video?

wringo is awsome

Should have purchased years ago

This this is great typically I would only get 1 job out of my sponges before they become to soft with the wringo I can get 2 or 3 jobs out of my sponges and my hand feel so much better not having to wring sponges all day I save atleat 25% of the time grouting depending on the tile and grout you might have to run your sponge through a couple times to get clean but most of the time once is
good only thing I wish is it was alittle easier to clean after grouting all the guys I know are planning to purchase one for themselves after trying it definitely recommend

P
P.T.

This Sponge cleaninfg machine has made grout cleaning much faster and easier. It fits standard 5 gallon buckets. The long cord is a nice touch, it saves my hands from repeated strain. It’s a bit pricey, but well worth it for the time and effort it saves.

t
t.

I love these things. I bought the old version a few years back and ended up buying 4 of them for the crews. They save at least a half hour on each shower I grout. Cold well water is no problem for you because your hands don't go into the water. Sponges come out very clean. I will probably order another one before my time as a tiler is up. Buy one,you'll be happy.

Did they keep the plastic gears or switch them to brass? I have some of the older machines and love them but the plastic gears lend themselves to breakage after a while. I love the things,but have noticed a few changes that should be made. thanks

J.J.

A couple of the gears have changed to give the machine more torque to handle different sponges that are being used in the market today. A majority of the gears are still plastic as that is the fail-safe in the system to be sure the moving parts in the machine are not damaged due to a jam or worn metal gears.
