How do you mop?

[SweetPea53]

I use the Scoomba the auto robot floor cleaner, I love it....I also have the roomba that vacuums the floor....they both work great...I don't think I have used a mop or vacuum in over a year...except for cleaning along the baseboards...

On my tile, I use a spray bottle(filled with William Sonoma all natural cleaner) and a TOWEL... I cannot use a mop because of a bad back and the towel just gets the grout cleaner.... I call it my Leg Exercise Time.... LOL I walk around the kitchen on the towel...
I want to try the steamer now...

I use the Orange Glo for my wood floors and it works great. I use a Bona mop, which I can throw in the washing machine when I am finished. I also use Petrotech Odor Eliminator Wood & Tile when Cooper has an accident. That stuff REALLY works.

Is the Shark steam mop safe on Laminate or Pergo wood floors?

I may have to invest in one. I googled it and it looks awsome!!

It says so on the box and I have laminate in the kitchen.(Pergo)
It does a really great job. I would guess on certain kinds of wood floors
you may have to push but on the laminate, marble and tile no
problem. I really like it. I will probably clean my floors maybe once
a month with lysol but all the other weekends Steam Mop it is.

Crap.


Well I am getting my kitchen tiled in a couple of weeks and I will just go to a damp mop after that. I have stupid stupid laminate flooring (NEVER again) and the swiffer wet was by far the easiest way to keep it looking ok.

Ok, nobody laugh....but,I actually like cleaning the floors. I am another one that cleans on my hands and knees. Yes, it hurts my back and knees, but I love being able to see how clean I am getting the floor. Oh my, I am really giving away how much of an anal cleaning freak I am! I use the Swiffer Wet but without the mop part. I like that it has the green scrubing strip so I can really get in the corners. I then let it dry and go back over with a disinfecting cleaner (but not on hands and knees for this part.).

I'd really prefer not to use a bucket of water and a real mop if I can help it because I'm going to end up with water all over the place! Please tell me what you do?

There is no truth to that, it was another story someone started.

I'm too gullible! Ya know, once in middle school I actually looked through a dictionary because I fell for the joke that the word gullible isn't in the dictionary. Looks like I'm going to Walmart tomorrow and buying another swifter...

Oh good!

Always check on www.snopes.com before believing things..I always mop my floors with water and ammonia..but, have also used swiffers..infact, I have 2 swiffers, but the little pads kept drying out, so just use the buck of ammonia water instead..
