We had a Swiffer Wet Jet that we had for cleaning the vinyl floors we had before be got the laminate. We used their wood floor cleaner, and it works okay, but it kind of leaves a tacky residue. So I use the Swiffer Wet Jet mop and pads with the Bona to basically mop. My wife thinks that looks fine. However, our kitchen is laminate too and when it is my turn to do floors, I do that area on my hands and knees, I just think I can get it cleaner. I'm the same way with the vinyl flooring in our bathrooms, when it is my turn to do them, I do them on my hands and knees, my wife just uses the swiffer mop.
