Hi All

I was after some advice, we have laminate flooring which we currently vacuum however need a product that will also clean it and dont want to use a mop.

I've seen things like flash speedmop, are these any good? would appreciate some tried and tested products that anyone can recommend..

I like the idea of using wipes that you can throw away afterwards but am definitely open to suggestions :)

I steam mop mine very, very occasionally (going over it afterwards with a dry mop) and wipe spills immediately with a damp cloth.

Love our speed mop for day to day cleaning.
Means you can whip it out and mop all over in a matter of minutes rather than get the bucket, water, bleach faff then have the manky water to throw away.
We have laminate and use 2 or 3 of the wipes per clean- as I like to see the laminate wet - to me that means it's clean( haha) and it dries super quick too.
Also no wet mop to dry/ store as it's dry once the wipe is off.

Thank you both, I'll try find a speedmop

I use a spray mop (the kind with the bottle on the handle and you squirt as you go) with removable pads that I just chuck in the wash. Quick and easy and no waste and the floor doesn’t get wet enough to cause any issues.

Vileda spray mop is brill, and you just throw the mop head in the wash once it gets grubby.

Another vote for vileda spray mop!

Spray mops are great and much better for the environment and for the pocket than buying wipes. Just chuck the microfiber pads in the wash and use them again. I bought a couple of extra pads so there’s always one clean, I think I have four now. I wouldn’t be without it, fantastic invention I will never use a mop bucket again!

I have a speed mop. It's great. However the pads are pretty expensive and I worry about going to land fill. I got an old tea town cut it in half and attached that to speed mop. I use. Wild rhubarb anti bacterial spray and whizz round my floors in no time. They chuck in washing matiin when finished.

I love my Flash Speed Mop and hate cleaning of any kind.. Surprised how easy it is, quick and how even when think floor is clean the amount of dirt that comes off. Also doesnt leave floor as wet nor is as messy as traditional mops.
