Cleaning laminate flooring!

Okay, so how does everyone else do it?

I use to use the disposable wipes but to my mind it was a waste of money and not really good for the environment. The cloth always looked dirty and I could probably go through a whole pack in a day!

Now I use a microfibre cloth and bucket with floor cleaner. I rinse the cloth in the bucket and do a small area at a time.

Thing is how many times should I wipe the floor? Do I keep doing it until the water runs clearer?? It just seems so dirty. I currently wipe/wash the floors once a week.

    Many do, but I would advise against putting water on a laminate floor. We wipe ours once a week using a micro fibre mop and specialist cleaning product, i.e. no water.
