The top wouldn't come off and so I poked a hole in the top, poured it in with a funnel and put a cork in it. I'm crazy I know, anything to save a few pennies. <br /><br />So, are they making them with removable tops? Or I know Clorox has a version too, does theirs allow for refills? <br /><br />And for pads, I just put one of my cleaning washclothes over the head and secured it and that worked well too.
