I would not use it on laminate flooring as it contains oil. I use a product called Boni ( I think) specifically for laminate floors. I have a winter home with laminate floors. I also just spray on Fantastic or other like cleaners. As long as you mop and leave no water the floors come out good. The floor cleaner is found at Home Depot and even grocery stores. It's a white spray plastic container with blue labels.

I wouldnt use it on laminate flooring. It leaves the floor pretty wet after using. It does work great though. Its nice to have a steamer and sweeper in one.

I have never had to wring out the mop pad. Our home has laminate floors as well as tile. I use a pad on the bathrooms then change to do the kitchen, dining, and living room. Compare it to a Swiffer but without the chemicals in the spray (I use a tablespoon of vinegar in almost a quart of water) and the pads are washable and reusable (as opposed to disposable and having to buy more every five or six moppings).

I use it diluted about 1/4 cup to quart of hot water, so it evaporates on wood floors. My floors are solid wood though, not laminate. It would probably work just as well on laminate, just don't let it stay wet.

Yes, laminate flooring (e.g., pergo or manufactured flooring) is not sealed in between each board, so water would seep down. I have laminate flooring on the lower level of my house. For that purpose I got the mint plus, I also use the Roomba to vacuum and every once in a while run the mint and it works fine because very little moisture is laid down with the mint.

I couldn't get it to operate. They sent me a dud. It got shipped back & I replaced it with a Bissel. I wouldn't take a chance & use it on laminate. They advise not to use steam mops on it as the finish will dull & wear off.

Yes...I have used this product on laminate and wooden floors and it works very well.

I have never used it on laminate but after reading everything on laminite floors because I recently had them installed, I wouldn't do it

There is a caution on laminate floors that reads "Water will drip from brushes and underside of the product after use and puddle. To avoid damage to laminate and wood flooring ---- remove to a hard surface and place unit on absorbent material". Sooooo I'd say it's okay. The machine does not put out a tremendous amount of cleaner, but I would be careful of how much is sitting on the laminate. Vacuum up right away.

I have the same question. I have read the reviews and a couple say they have used it on laminate floors. I would like to know for sure before purchasing one. Does anyone know for sure?

My laminate floors have a texture to it as well and I never had a problem cleaning in between. I do put a harder presser when I mop on these floors.

There are two pads available. One is a soft fluffy type that I use for dusting. I believe you can buy this separately. The type which comes with this mop is used for "damp" cleaning and I use it on tile and hardwood and I assume it can be used just as effectively on laminate. By the way, on the tile floors I use the mop using either water or a non-bona liquid cleaner.

According to the accompanying directions, it can be used on sealed hard flooring. Laminate is sealed, so I'd say "yes." I used it on our engineered hardwood floors and it did a beautiful job. Really sucks the water up well.

No. For laminate floating floors mainly. Would also be fine for tongue and groove flooring as a moisture barrier

Yes I use the micro cloth side to mop my laminate floor. I use Bona product. Be sure to wash and air dry your mop head prior to use.

Yes...we have laminate, wood and tile. You put the duster covers on to the mop part and mop an vacuum at the same time. We also use the swifter wetjet with the wood cleaning liquid to wash our laminate floors and bought the two pack of regular liquid for our tile floors.

While I have only used the Haan steam cleaner on tile, I referred to the owner's manual for you. It specifically states that it IS designed to safely clean laminate floors. I've been very happy with my results. Easy to use, quick to get going and pads are machine washable.
