Which mop?

Drum roll please for the dullest question ever. I’m about to move into a house which has mainly wooden floors. Wondering which mop I should get. I currently have a Vileda supermop which I use downstairs in my current home. It’s ok but not great and I get a better result on my hands and knees with a floor cloth. Should I get a steam mop? What kind?

I mean, I know this is a boring question but I thought the good people of MN loved a steam mop!

I use a MANGOTIME Spray Mop for Floor Cleaning - Microfibre Dry Wet Mop for Laminate Wooden Vinyl Hardwood Tile LVT Floors with 3 Washable Pads 1 Refillable Bottle 1 Scraper with Method wooden floor cleaner.

I then have a pink grapefruit Method liquid for doing the bathroom floors as they aren't wooden.

So quick and easy

Would a steam mop warp the wood? I am happy with my vileda but I love mop talk

Yes, I think a steam mop would warp wooden floors. That why I like the mop I posted and its really quick. The room smells delicious too when done.
