When I mop I just spray an area of the floor with the zep bottle and then just go over it with the turned off steam mop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-clean-your-laminate-floors#post-2412647 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 12:33:57 +0000 Keybee 2412647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't know you weren't suppost to steam mop laminate!<br /> Thank you for the tips! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-clean-your-laminate-floors#post-2412448 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 10:15:34 +0000 MaryM 2412448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we had laminate, I used vinegar and water (usually like 50/50) and a reusable swiffer like mop thing. It had a washable microfiber cloth thingy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-clean-your-laminate-floors#post-2412078 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 23:27:58 +0000 MrsSRS 2412078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I just switched the way I clean our pergo and it looks amazing! I rinse a rag in hot water, then fold it over the bottom of our swifter instead of using a disposable pad. The floor gets sprayed with a 50/50 vinegar water mix with a drop of dawn in it. I rinse the rag out two or three times to do one room. No more streaks or tackiness! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-clean-your-laminate-floors#post-2412027 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 22:24:27 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2412027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Laminate floors shouldn't be steam cleaned.<br /> I think the recommendation is damp (not wet, so no wet jets) mopping when necessary. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-clean-your-laminate-floors#post-2412025 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 22:15:46 +0000 Greentea 2412025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have laminate but we aren't allowed to use a steam mop. They said it pulls up the flooring. I use a twist and shout mop. I would way prefer a steam mop! My mop is okay... at least there is no additional purchasing- you just throw the dirty mop head in the wash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-clean-your-laminate-floors#post-2412008 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 21:56:11 +0000 winter_wonder 2412008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use a Shark. Before that I had a Swiffer Wet Jet but I really don't care for them. I felt like they never really got the floors very clean and left a residue on the floor. Maybe a replacement Shark? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-clean-your-laminate-floors#post-2411992 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 21:48:38 +0000 chopsuey 2411992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would get a bona mop if I were you.<br /> <a href="https://us.bona.com/lines/stl-cleaners.html" rel="nofollow">https://us.bona.com/lines/stl-cleaners.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-clean-your-laminate-floors#post-2411979 Wed, 06 Jan 2016 21:40:19 +0000 Keybee 2411979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have pergo-type flooring on our main floor. I have a Swivel Sweeper that I use daily and a Shark Steam mop that is use less often...<br /> Anyway, my steam mop just broke and I am wondering what to replace it with. Another steam mop? Perhaps a Bissel, or another Shark? I've also been thinking about a Swiffer Wet Jet, or something like that.<br /> What do you use? What do you reccommend? </p>
