Can it be used on unsealed wood floors?

I would not use this unit on un-sealed wood floors. I would not use it on wood floors of any kind because of the risk of water going through the getting under the wood.

I wouldn't. You run the risk of water damage and scratches from the brushes.

The manual says, "For use on bare floors or sealed wood floors." which would indicate that it cannot be used on unsealed wood floors.

This is not a manufacturer answer but personally I wouldn't. To me unsealed plus water is not a good idea. I'm not sure what kind of floors you want to use it on but broom and damp mop sound like your best bet.

Donna - I am SO impressed by this cleaner! I use it on my (not plush)oriental rugs that are laid over hardwood floors and there has been no damage! My wood floors are about 60yo and not sealed and they would be more prone to damage than your newer floors, so you should be safe. There is a newer model where the canister removes for stairs if that is a feature that might be of value to you. Tena

You determine hoe much water is dispensed by how long you hold the button down. That being said I don't think I would use it on wood floors with openings between the boards. It is phenomenal for tile floors and the grout lines.

This is only to be used for for restoration/damaged wood. If the floors have been previously coated in a polyurethane coating (typical non-wax type floor treatment), it will bead up and ruin your floors. But the good news is it won't make your floors slippery :)

Hi,It works on the tile floors, but I'm not sure if it works on the wood floors. But the machine has an option to choose from thick carpet to floor.

No, it is not made for use on hard wood floors, and it doesn't have special switches for different areas, at least not that I know of.

I have no idea, I haven't used it on my wood floor, just the carpet. It does a great job on the carpet.

I cannot answer your question about wood floors as we use them on laminate floors. Sorry.

I am sorry I cannot tell you that. I know it works very well on floors that had been treated very rough.

I would say yes. The floor should have a non porous surface. I would not recommend using on an open grain wood floor such as an unfinished oak floor. I highly recommend this product! It lasts a long time. Two to three coats seems to give the best results. Make your final coat as thin as you can get it. Good Luck!!

It can be used on about any hard surface, including laminate. Just be sure to use the appropriate solution. I use the wood floor solution.

Not sure what a Swedish finish is. You can't use it on unsealed, worn or oiled wood floors. The manufacturer says it's safe for any other hardwood. I've only used the product on tile.

I have not tried on my wood floors. I have used it on my tiled kitchen floors. We bought our home 3 years ago and after years of wax build up the floor were yellow. This is the only product that has worked. It works almost on contact. I used it right out of the container, pour onto the wax build up area, let it set for a few min. and I actually scrubbed the first time on my hands and knees. My floor came out beautifully. Restored to original luster. I love this stuff. I do plan to do the wood floors this spring. I hope this helps!

I wouldn't know, I only use it on my dry wood floors and it works great on them. I don't think it's strong enough for wet floors?

If it is sealed I don't see why not. What does the manufacturer of the flooring say about mopping it?

I have not used on hardwood floor. I would try in a corner that does not show...to test.

I would not hesitate to use it on wooden floors, but I would massage it into the grain of the wood so it will penetrate and get to the mold you are trying to eradicate.
