I use warm soapy water, get on my hands and knees and wash and dry the laminate as I go. Otherwise the laminate looks dull and smeary. It's not a job I enjoy!0

You can buy laminate wipes in the 99p shop also a laminate spray. I use either of these depending on how energetic I feel!0

We just use baby wipes on any spills on floor and quick wipe around skirting board and you are done, easy,quick and cheapproper prior planning prevents !!!!!! poor performance!Only when the last tree has died and the last river been poisoned and the last fish been caught will we realise we cannot eat moneyquote from an american indian.0

I bought an E-cloth mop recently and you just spray the laminate floor with water and then mop it.0

Depends how I feel and how dirty the floor looks!!!!
Either:warm water, splash of floor cleaner and mop OR fairy liquid and hands and knees, scrubbing brush and go for it!!! OR just warm water and a mop OR for quick spills etc the flash power mop.......Children are born with wings .... Teachers help them to flyOne day your life is going to flash in front of your eyes.... Make sure it's worth watching!!!!!0 -

I agree with this. Used to use Co-op general cleaner in water, but Stardrops is excellent on laminate flooring, done with a microfibre mop, and I don't find it leaves any smear at all. Works well on vinyl flooring, too.0 -
We have moved into a house that has laminate floor throughout the ground floor, I am used to carpet, if you have laminate floor how do you keep it clean.
Most of the sitting room is ok, but I think the dining room seems grubby and sticky.0 -

I've added your post to our existing thread on cleaning laminate flooring which should help.
