1. A gravity-fed cleaning system comprising:
- a handle portion with a proximal end and a distal end, the handle portion including a housing adapted to receive a replaceable cleaning fluid reservoir, the handle portion further including an extender portion the extender portion having two ends, one end attached to the handle portion adjacent the distal end thereof, and further having a fluid nozzle coupled to the other end of the extender portion adjacent the distal end of the handle portion adjacent the distal end of the handle portion;
a cleaning head portion coupled to the distal end of the handle portion with a yoke section such that the nozzle is located directly above and in front of a leading edge of the cleaning head portion, the cleaning head portion further comprising a mechanical securing device for retaining a removable cleaning pad; and
a replaceable cleaning fluid reservoir received within the housing, the cleaning fluid reservoir fluidically coupled to the nozzle.
