can this be used on laminate flooring?

Probably would be fine on your laminated flooring but note what I said elsewhere. It is literally disposable. No one repairs them. There are equally good steamers out there that can be fixed if a problem arises.

Hi. I use it on my wood floors and they turn out nicely without damage. I'm not sure about laminate though. You may want to contact the manufacturer of the flooring to get their expert opinion. If it were a Shark I'd say "go for it," but the Haan does get much hotter than most, so you're wise doing your research. Strictly my opinion, but I believe it will probably be fine. I'm sure it also depends on the quality of the laminate. I wish I had a more definite answer for you.

You can use it on any "sealed" floor, which includes laminate, wood, tile, linoleum etc. If you had a raw wood (say bamboo) with no resin on it over time the water and heat may damage it. But almost every floor now is sealed so it should be no problem. All laminates are sealed, but if you are worried try it in a corner or closet first...

While I have only used the Haan steam cleaner on tile, I referred to the owner's manual for you. It specifically states that it IS designed to safely clean laminate floors. I've been very happy with my results. Easy to use, quick to get going and pads are machine washable.

I have four different types of flooring in my house: laminate, engineered hardwood, vinyl tile, and ceramic tile. It works great on all types!

We use ours on marble and tile. It is a great machine and I would check the manual out online as it runs very hot compared to our prior one.

Not sure since I don't have laminate. But wirjs great in tile, therefore would assume it would work great on laminate.

You can use it on laminate flooring and it would work really well too but I mainly use this product for countertops, sinks, and my glass table and glass sliding door. For flooring, I use the Murphy's Original Oil Soap.

We use Bona on our solid wood floors so I cannot tell you if it works on laminates. I can tell you it works very well on our solid wood, which come from Lumber Liquidators.

I have only used it on laminate and tile flooring, very pleased, worth a try!

I use it on hard wood, ceramic and laminate floors. It works great on all of them!

We used it on laminate and it was okay, no warping or discoloration that we noticed, but every floor is different. I think as long as you wipe it up right away, you will be fine.

I used it on my hardwood floors hoping to cover up some scratches. I have not tried it on the laminate floor. It didn't fill in the scratches at all. The floors were shiny and looked nice but it was not what I was looking for.

Yes. I have been using my steamer on laminate flooring for 3 years. No problems and much better than wet mopping because dries quickly. I recommend doing your laminate floors with a fresh pad and NEVER leave the steamer sitting in one place on the laminate floor with the unit running. The issue is not leaving any standing water which the steam does not if used correctly

The floor tool has nylon bristles. I would say it would not scratch laminate flooring.

Hi Elaine, I don't know, is the short answer. I bought this to add shine to my otherwise scratched up wooden floors and the shine is great. Also, it is not slick which I love. There are other products they make that would probably be better for cleaning laminate as they have a lot of laminate floors in Europe where I believe it was originally made. I would check the site and they should have a number to contact them. This is a GREAT product for floors so don't be discouraged by my response. It is well worth calling to find the best product for laminate floors. I know they must make it. Good luck! Susan

I cannot answer this from experience, since we don't have laminate flooring, but I tried it on one of our parquet tiles. It made the wood look dull. I would not recommend it for wood or for anything with seams. It works spectacularly well on vinyl, even heavily textured. Sorry I cannot be of more help.

I don't think so. I only use it for my kitchen linoleum floor. Didn't like the results on my hardwood floors.

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.

I read on a similar post a person said do not use on the "stick it yourself laminate flooring". It was with a similar steam cleaner like this. It was ruined. I have regular laminate flooring, but it will peel up too. Be careful!

I see no reason why it would not work on laminate floors. We have wood floor and it works great on it.

I've only used it on wood. The description says laminates so you should be fine. I have been very pleased with the results. Not perfect but far better on older worn floors.
