Are the leaks prevented by the AquaStop system the kind most often responsible for hardwood floor damage?

Thank you for your interest in Goedeker's! The AquaStop system will isolate and stop leaks as the water is coming into the dishwasher. This is one of the most common causes of water damage to floors. There is an upgraded system on the high-end models called AquaStop Plus which also stops leaks during drainage. If you have any other questions, please feel free to call me at 1-888-768-1710. Thank you and have a great day! -Danielle at Goedeker's

I used it on my floors in my Victorian-era home. It is my understanding that with the steam, you don't get as much water on the floors so it's better for hardwoods as long as they've been sealed.

Use a gallon of water in the sink with very small amount of Polly care. I had the same problem with sticking on the floor and footprints. Sweep or vacuum the hardwood first. Less is better in the water.

I would check with the manufacturer. We have a laminate floor. We are never to use water on it for whatever reason

I don't think so ... the machine is designed to put out a spray of water + shampoo, scrub it around and suck it up. You would not want this much water on hardwood floors. I am sure there is another machine designed for this purpose.

I do vacuum b swiftly and it will do a great job.efore use of the haan. It's safe if the hardwood floor is not kept wet, use it

No damage to hardwood whatsoever. This was a concern of mine, as well. Two years old and it's still going strong....has awesome suction.

Yes. IIt should stop the leak. I have used it on my rollaway stairs and it has worked.

I am sure it is very safe. I have used it on my floors. But let me warn you that on certain wood floors it leaves them looking very dull. Also it leaks terribly. I have been told to reset the filter and I have but the darn thing still leaks. I should have sent it back and I wish I had bought a different brand. I do not like mine at all and I would not reccomend this to anyone. Do youself a favor and check into something else.

Laminate is NOT sealed hardwood. You have small seams that the water vapor will get into. Please, please, please call your manufacture of the flooring and the steam mop and ask what they will do for you if the mop damages your floor. Likely at most replace the mop and the flooring manufacture likely voided your warranty the first time you steam mopped it. Even site finished hardwood a mop is not recommended. Your floor shrinks in low humidity which breaks the bonds between board in your floor. The vapor can and will work it's way into the floor in time and can cause the boards to warp. Please contact the manufacture or a hardwood expert for advice.

I don't know. My hardwoods aren't sealed so I haven't used the steamer on my wood floors.

There is no water just wet pads. It sucks up the dirt and cleans the spots pretty good. The pads seem loose effective ness on large expanses of floor. We have 1000 sq feet. I like the fact that it saves you a step because you don't have to sweep and mop. I would say it works pretty good on small wood floors but it's not perfect. I sprayed some floor cleaner down to help it along. Hope this helps.

Hmmm... probably, it's pretty sensitive. I haven't actually tried that but I do have hardwoods throughout and I can check.

Yes, but I had to throw my Primo away because it continued to leak water on my wooden floors.

I have been using this on my sealed hardwood floors for about 7mo, and I have not had any problems.

I have not had any problems using it on my hardwood floors. Please note that I never leave it to rest in one spot. If I need to pause, I place the steamer on a folded towel.

I am very reluctant to say anything negative about anyone or anything ...but honesty has to rule here...the one shipped to me was a leaky mess...I would never use it on hardwood....If this was the first bad experience I had ever had with Hoover, well..... 'It just ain't the Hoover your Ma and Gma use to know and love'..... There are better machines... Check out a few others...Amazon is wonderful about being truthful and returns if it just isn't right....
