What coating do they have? Are they oiled or lacquered?

For lacquered I use method wood floor cleaner and a Leifheit mop.

For oil, I use WOCA soap (on Amazon). It is AMAZING.

You really need to find out. It makes a difference.

You need to find out, coz if you use products for lacquered floors on oiled ones, there's a good chance you'll strip out all the oil. It's normally easy to tell - the lacquered ones are kind of hard and a little shiny, and the oiled ones tend to be more matt. Solid oak could be either.
