20 Best Homemade Cleaner For Wood Floors (2023 Updated)

I originally purchased this product to clean my hardwood floors, but it worked so well that I decided to use it on my kitchen cabinets which are all wood. I put some in a spray bottle and away I went.

The scent isn’t over bearing which is good because I don’t like a lot of cleaners that are all smell and no action. My cabinets were really a mess and splattered on. The effect on my cabinets was pretty good.

For the most part, the cleaner removed the grime while not affecting the finish. There were a few spots that needed a bit of elbow grease, but those were spots that had dried whatever on them. With this big bottle, I will have plenty to do my bathroom cabinets as well!.

I don’t clean my hardwood floors too often because I don’t want to damage them with harsh chemicals or add a layer of waxy gunk that smears and won’t go away. I also have concerns with many cleaners that have toxic chemicals that can’t be used around the pets or kids.

I decided to give this a try since it specifically states that it doesn’t have any of the issues that I was concerned with and I’m glad that I did. It cleans my hardwood with little effort and leaves a really nice, natural shine without having to rinse afterward.

It leaves a nice, clean citrus scent and should last for quite some time since it doesn’t take too much to do the job. Overall a really great product.

Sheiner’s is a USA Brand made in Brooklyn, NY. Their floor cleaner is strong surface cleaner that doesn’t leave a film on your floor and doesn’t need to be diluted. It’s safe to use around family and pets.

You’ll find that most professional cleaners use this product because of the positive results it provides. If you have indoor pets, you’ll appreciate the pet stain and odor remover. It’s safe to use on multiple surfaces and removes the stains, dirt, drool, etc.

It also smells nice, which is a step up from most pet deodorizers.

I love the smell. I recently had LVP installed a month ago. With LVP I can’t use a wax based floor cleaner or harsh chemicals or any steam mops. So I used this cleaner to clean my floor for the first time.

I do like it. I never realized how much dirt and grime this cleaner picked up off my floor after install! I was impressed. I’m torn between two different floor cleaners. I love the vinegar floor wash (which I was using on my old floors) and the hardwood floor cleaner (I’m using on my new floors) But I want to use this one more time to really make a decision between the two.

But you won’t be disappointed in this cleaner at all. I’m am very impressed.

This stuff is amazing! I have old hardwood floors and have typically used only my steam cleaner as everything else I tried left a sticky residue or stripped the wood. This has a clean scent and the floors feel great when you walk on them after they’ve dried.

No sticky or slimy residue! I was even comfortable when the kids decided to run over the floor when it was still wet (cuz heaven forbid they stay off them for 5 minutes). I used this on my hardwood steps as well and it doesn’t leave them slick afterwards.

I even washed the baseboards down with this and they look so much nicer after. The water was black after mopping so I know it cleaned well. Highly recommend this product and will be buying again!.

I use this pretty regularly on our hardwoods. Between kids, muddy dogs, a husband that works construction and tracks EVERYTHING inside, and a constant flow of family visiting our house on a regular basis.

I spend a lot of time trying to make sure our floors aren’t totally disgusting. I’ve used another variation of Aunt Fannie’s floor cleaner, but it smelled very vinegar-y. I didn’t totally hate it, but when I got this version of their floor cleaner I was pleasantly surprised at how good it smells! It makes our house smell fresh and clean and I love that I don’t have to worry about my dogs walking around on it right after I mop.

This is a staple for me now.

This is an awesome hardwood floor cleaner & polish in one. It is THEEEE best! No need to rinse, a little goes a long way – and it leaves a high shine with no hazy residue. I usually get it at Home Depot, but they were out so I went to trusty Ebay! Arrived quickly, well packaged.

I have hardwood floors that are 30+ years old and in places it really shows it. I really love them because of all the character but there comes a point when you really want your floors to shine and look gorgeous.

Minwax products are some of the best I’ve tried when dealing with wood floors or any wood in general. This really helps give me the look I want without a huge pricetag or a lot of work. Great thing is these usually dry quickly depending on what variation you get of the product so not a lot of time you have to avoid a room! I recommend!.

Amazing good product if you are looking for a truthful and trusted brand and product this a good quality product that will make you feel save and happy spending on every Time you need to buy something amazing and beautiful made it so beautiful and good for everyone.

Over 17,000 reviewers on Home Essentials Direct have rated this Bona Hardwood Cleaner product 4. 8 stars! You’ll be hard pressed to find a similar high average ranking on any other product. There is a good reason for this.

The product simply works. It is easy to use, cleans effectively and drys fast. We have never had any damage caused during the cleaning process regardless of the dirt, grime, mud and dust brought into our home by our Irish Wolfhounds.

And they bring in a lot. We have learned from experience that hardwood floors take a lot of maintenance to make them stay fresh and clean looking. Staying with true ‘hardwood’ is the best path for those looking for enduring floors that can take punishment and yet be sanded down and polished when necessary.

You can’t effectively rehab laminate flooring by sanding. Hardwood can be damaged by dropped objects, furniture dragged across it, liquid leakages, and scarring caused by pets and children. However if the damage stretches across several slats, it can get expensive to not only get the matching pieces to replace it, but it usually requires that several pieces be removed and substitued for continuity.

Color matching alone can be difficult. Just like with marble floors, it makes sense to keep sa box of replacement slats in storage for eventual use. The same can be said of marble flooring. It can take a lot of abuse before it becomes cloudy and the grout takes on a dirty dark color.

Care must be taken when lightening/replacing the grout. A true cleaning involves grinding the marble down to eliminate marks and broken tiles need to be kept in storage in case a few have to be replaced.

A thorough cleaning will result in marble dust permeating your whole house and the cleaning/polishing processes take time and a lot of money.

Product is far better than Bono, as it does not leave streaks, and dries clear. It was advised to me by house cleaners, over my Bono and you can see the difference. If you are showing property or are having a show party than use this product, as the floor shows no streaks and is uniform throughout.

Down side is that the product is hard to find, somehow manufacturer thinks that limited production, and without marketing is better. Bad idea in today’s market, especially for a fine product.

I’ve used this only twice on my floors with a microfiber mop, and I am happy with the results. I followed the instructions exactly, and while I did not get a high shine; there was nothing dull about my floors, and there was no streaking either.

The floors looked good – very clean.

This is the only spot cleaner I use on my hardwood floors from the 1920s! When there is any type of spill, I use this immediately and have never had a stain or spot left behind since I’ve started using it! My floors are very particular and don’t react well to all products, but they love this stuff! It’s very cheap and works like a dream.

Couldn’t ask for more!.

We use our Crosswave on area rugs and laminate surfaces. Much more effective than steaming and Bona==all of which takes longer. The Crosswave is a bit pricey, but it works better and faster than any cleaner we have had before.

Battery almost lasts long enough and the cleaning cycle is a real improvement.

This us a great little starter kit. First, you need to do your homework because there are no instructions for anything except the controller. I mounted this on my truck’s fiberglass topper. You need to pay attention to the grounding locations on the panel and provide a ground wire and nut and bolt to them.

Yes, you only need one, but I put in two. The cable connector diameter is 1/4″, and connector diameter is 3/4″, but once you put in one cable, you need more room to push through the 2nd 3/4″ connector.

I drilled a 1/4″ hole next to the 3/4 hole to slide the cable out of the way. You will need grommets and sealant, or I used a marine through-hole connector. Sealed, of course. My truck cap is slightly curved – enough that if I had mounted the solar panel directly, it would have put a bending strain on it and possibly cracked in.

I used 1/4″ wood slices to make up the difference. I also bought rubber sheets (8″x 8″) from Ace Hardware to place under the “feet”. The kit gives you everything you need except the 12v battery to which you connect.

Please note that you connect the battery to the controller first. I use my truck in Search and Rescue support, as a radio relay. This solar panel will help greatly in not running down my battery. Surprisingly, the solarpanel was putting out 12.

43v when my truck was *inside* my garage. Yes, AZ is sunny but I was surprised.

This product is great – taking dull floors and making them shine beautifully. It coats the wood floor with a surface shine, which will show dull scuffs if you drag (furniture, etc. ) things across it, but is otherwise durable and really looks great.

Easy to apply – be sure the floors are clean first, then follow with a coat of this product. It is highly rated everywhere I checked, for a good reason.

The monocrystalline 100w panel appears to be well constructed, and provided mounting hardware is good too. Installation on my toy hauler was a breeze. The controller is entry level, but has some nice features like backlit blue LCD screen, programmable load circuit control, and two USB ports.

These are nice to have in a basic kit. Tray and charge cables are robust and high quality, however the charge control terminals are barely large enough to fit the 10 gauge cables into. I had to clip off a few strands of copper on a couple of them to fit them in.

I see why they used 10 gauge though, for future addition of another panel. Be advised that if you do add panel(s), you’ll need a higher amp rating controller. Be prepared to spend another $50 or so for fuses and holders (not included), and custom mounting hardware if needed for your specific application.

As I spend my day spring cleaning, thought I would rave about this floor cleaner! Having been a little too privileged for many years, I always had a service clean our house. Once I started doing it on my own, I realized I didn’t really know how to effectively clean my floors (outside of a stiffer).

I know. first world problems. This spinner mop and hardwood cleaner are fantastic!! The cleaner doesn’t leave any residue and brings my floors back to their beautiful matte surface. It does not make them glossy, so look elsewhere if that’s the look you want.

Just clean and NOT sticky. Thank you Woodwise for making my life infinitely easier!.

We had wood floors when we built our new home in October 2016 and Woodwise was given to us by the floor company to use. We are almost out of that original supply and went to buy more. The store’s price was about 25% for expensive than my purchase here on Ebay.

We are happy.

I have ordered the wood wise floor cleaner for my kitchen and dining room floors. I have recommended this product to family and friends and they have already started ordering from your company and are extremely pleased with the product!.

I’ve used Aspen Clean products for many years now, and I’m a very happily and satisfied customer. If you care about the environment and how you choose to clean your space and clothes, now’s the time to get behind this great company and its wonderful safe products.

My belief in this company goes to their cleaning folks who I used during my last move. They’re organized and methodical in their approach to cleaning, using their own safe products, and making sure that nothing was overlooked.

It’s a great experience all around with Aspen Clean.

Excellent products! I have tried more natural products than I can remember Not all work well. I finally found one that does. I love the floor cleaner. I always think about my dogs laying on the floor.

Safe cleaners is priority. And the kitchen cleaner works so well! And smells so good. Very happy.

I have used SEVERAL of AspenClean’s products. I love that they are clean and are EWG approved. I know I’m not adding toxic chemicals to my house while trying to clean it. The floor cleaner did not dissapoint – leaves my laminate floors nice and shiny without a strong smell or residue.

One warning – a little goes a long way! It gets too sudsy if you use too much. but the way I look at it, that’s a good thing. you are getting a LOT for your money!! :).

Great idea, now I don’t need to have such bulky refills and better for the plant… less waste. Love how it doesn’t have a chemically smell. I honestly don’t smell anything. Feels light. Love how I can feel good when I clean, that my daughters aren’t touching or inhaling toxins.

This floor cleaner cleans and shines my ceramic tile flooring beautifully with no residue. Most importantly, safe for my four dogs. I use for weekly cleanings and daily touch ups. However, I’m very disappointed the “Directions For Use” was not shown on the website prior to purchase.

Later learned, when you make a bottle from this concentrate, that mixture must be used within 24 hours. Not interested in making a small bottle everyday for my minimal daily use and hope not to waste as well.

I highly recommend the non-concentrate floor cleaner formula (22 oz spray bottle), although not as cost effective.

I used Murphy’s oil and nothing else for the past 8 years, unless I was prepping them to be waxed. I love Murphy oil so much, I use it on all my wood furniture including cabinets. I allways loved the shine and the way it cleaned.

The only thing I didn’t like was the smell. I need something that smells nice and cleans well. So I decided to go the all natural way. I heard a lot of good things about method cleaning products. So I decided to try it.

When I received it, I was very anxious to try it. I followed the instructions on the floor cleaner to a tee. Started to use it and immediately I loved the smell. Omg it smelled so good. Remind me when I use to use old English.

Smells just like it. But that is all it has going for it! I never saw something clean so horrible! When it dried my floor looked cleaned at a glance. But when I really looked, it was still a little dirty and left a Horrible sticky (yes you are reading correctly) and filmy/grungy look.

I am not joking when I say, you will get a better shine from pine sol or mr clean and yes I do realize neither do a good job. Do your self a favor and don’t buy into those fake reviews, cause it can’t possibly clean and give your floors a nice shine.

I so wanted to like this because it smelled so good. So I had my husband try it. Thinking I did something wrong. Nope same thing happened to him. Horrible stuff don’t waste your money! Ps I never write reviews unless i absolutely love the products.

Witch I absolutely hate this product.

Although this (sadly) is not my favorite mopping solution when it comes to cleaning, I have to say that the reason it lost a star was actually the scent. I do not know what the people over at method think almonds smell like, but this stuff smells so strongly of baby oil or baby powder that I was suspicious that I was mopping with baby oil.

Not only that, it was SO STRONG for over 24 hours. Everytime I left the house and came home – baby oil. So much of it. I thought I was crazy so I went and opened a bottle of baby oil, smelled it, then opened the mop solution and smelled it.

They really do smell almost identical. So, if you do not like the smell of baby oil I do not recommend this. If you do like the smell of baby oil, then I highly recommend this. I just cannot get past it.

Works well and has a very light almond scent. It’s not overpowering. It cleans ok. It says you do not need to wet your cloth but I find that it’s helpful. The squirt and mop I don’t find useful as it cleans just that spot.

For a full clean you’ll have to squirt often and use more product. I ended up using the product in a sprayer bottle to distribute the product better and use less. This works well for in between quick cleans.

I’ll still refer to my cleaning soap and scrub mop for a more detailed clean. With 2 big dogs that are active and get dirty often and always manage to get past me at the door, this is ok but not the best substitute for a good scrub.

Have used it for years. Not available locally. Glad to find it.

We installed new hardwood flooring in our kitchen area about 5 years ago and the installer suggested that we use Woodwise to clean the floor with. Woodwise is the only product we have used in the past 5 years on the kitchen floor and it is the cleaner that we will continue to use in the future.

I was pretty reluctant to try Rejuvenate Green National Hardwood Floor Cleaner because my floors are in such bad condition I didn’t think ANYTHING could help these floors. Well with a little hard work, a lot of elbow grease & thanks to Rejuvenate Green National Hardwood Floor Cleaner my floors look a lot better than they initially did in the begining! By no means am I saying that this cleaner made my floors look brand new, not at all!! What it did was brighten them up & put a little bit of life back into them, gave them a bit of a nice clean shiney look, if my floors weren’t in desperate need of a sanding & a few coats of polyurethane or what ever it is they seel wood floors with then I strongly believe Rejuvenate Green National Hardwood Floor Cleaner is going to be very helpful in my future when my floors get a makeover! They’ll never get all scratched up & dull again as long as I keep up with them & use my Rejuvenate Green National Hardwood Floor Cleaner! What a great buy & I can’t wait to tell my friends & family what a great green product I found because good one’s are very hard to find!.

This is not the product that I actually posted but I couldn’t find it this might be close not sure but the stuff I posted is great for wood, linoleum, tile and concrete. It is a 2 step process you start cleaning your floor with the cleangrime floor cleaner let dry and then apply the floor polish it gets all the dirt and grime you would be totally surprised!! It leaves your floors shiny and clean!! I recommend this as j think you will love it!!!.

Used Weiman Hard Wood Floor Cleaner to help bring life back to my old, care worn wood floors. Did two washings (ceiling renovations make tons of dust!!) to really clean up our recent mess. AMAZING how well it cleaned off old scuffs, and brought back some shine.

Finished off with Weiman Wood Floor Polish. floors look great !!.

Am I the only one that doesn’t like this stuff? I tried to give it the benefit of the doubt, but I just don’t understand the good reviews about it. I used this according to directions, and when I started to mop it turned into an almost soapy lather on my floors.

I didn’t feel like it cleaned at all, and it seemed like I just was rubbing product into my floors. My floors were still dirty and now even more sticky. Don’t get me wrong, this stuff has a really nice clean scent but that’s about it lol.

LOVE this hard floor cleaner! My favorite scent is the Ginger Yuzu, I can see why they’re often sold out of this scent. I had to try it after reading all the reviews and one woman wrote “she loves the scent of Ginger Yuzu so much, she finds herself wanting to mop the floors more often” and I thought, I could use some of that motivation! So happy I tried it, it’s definitely my go to floor cleaner.

Just squirt and mop!! I have dark, laminate flooring and other cleaners leave behind mop marks and residue but not this cleaner, it simply leaves behind a nice, clean, matte finish just the way I like it! Clean floors and a nice, clean scent throughout the house, what’s not to like?!.

great item hypoallergenic

Very good product

I bought this product to use on wood look tiles, at first I was pleased with the lovely shine and color of the tile. Then life happened. My husband sat of the bar stools in the kitchen = scratched surface (I let it cure for 2 days before using the stools) then my dog had an accident = finish disappeared in the shape of her urine puddle.

The finish has continued to scratch easily. I emailed rejuvenate and they did reply is a short amount of time but the reply was to let to floor cure for 2-3 days before sliding furniture over it (areas that had not been used for 4 days wore off in a similar fashion).

They also said that dog urine will remove the surface – this is not mentioned on the web page or bottle that I could find. I will be removing this product from my floors. Please note the two about considerations when using this product.

It may have worked better on wood floor but not the tile despite being on of the valid floor types.

I just purchased my first Rejuvinate mop kit at Lowes. I have tried too many cheap mops and pads over the past several years. Most are too bulky to use and they never give me the shine I’m looking for.

Many have cheap, oversized pads that flop around making it difficult and frustrating for me. So today I tried my new mop and couldn’t wait to thank Rejuvinate for the best simple mop around, hands down! Don’t ever change your product, please!.

I am in the middle of a deep house clean. I have needed the mop until I tried to apply the Restorer. For the first coat, I was on my hands and knees. It looks great, but I missed some areas. Splurged on the mop.

The handle piece would not snap in place. Not only did the thing fall apart when I tried to use, the cleaner wouldn’t dispense. I had COVID in early April. I could get it again, so I leave my house maybe once a week, often less.

Must I go out again to return this? I did my errands yesterday. Do I delay cleaning the floors? The furniture and rugs were moved to clean, I can’t use those rooms. Unlike every other company I have worked with, the customer service agents are not working at home.

The CEO asks us to understand — customer service isn’t important or a priority. Is he paying his workers? Or contributing to the number of people suffering from economic problems? Either way, chat customer service has almost never helped — i WILL NOT waste my time.

Next time I out everything will be returned.
