After just a couple of foot pumps, the mop came out the spinner. There was no excess water dripping all over the floor and although it was wetter than a couple of sprays from the average spray mop, it was not enough to risk warping the laminate, although it did mean a longer drying time.

Don’t believe us? Well, according to research conducted by Men’s Health Magazine, the carpet in your home is on average 4,000 times dirtier than your toilet (and that’s before you’ve not looked after it for over a week!) For reasons of hygiene and safety, personal grooming products, cosmetics or items of intimate clothing cannot be returned. The Vileda Turbo is a great choice for laminate flooring. I was sceptical at first about exactly how much water the wringer would remove and whether it would be able to remove enough to allow the mop to be used on laminate flooring. But the wringer managed to squeeze every last drop of excess water out, so there was no danger of over-wetting the laminate. The mop managed to dispense with all sorts of food stains, including more stubborn stains, with minimal elbow grease required. How well does the Vileda Turbo clean tiled flooring? The mop head can be washed at a maximum temperature of 30°C, without fabric softener or bleach to avoid damaging the microfibres. To remove the mop head for cleaning, just pull it out of the frame using your hands or foot.

I have the vileda turbo spin mop...it’s really good. More expensive than most but you can spin/wring the mop so it uses less water and dries faster."Recommended by Mumsnetter ThePontiacBandit When you team the microfibres in the Vileda Turbo Mop head with water (often called the "universal solvent" because of its unique ability to dissolve many different things), you have the dream team, a dynamic duo able to remove over 99% of bacteria from your floors, with no need for extra chemicals! REASON #5 - You can use it on any kind of hard-sealed floors...This is why so many cleaning gurus swear by the ‘Figure of 8’ technique when mopping the floors, which is especially effective when you are using a traditional cloth mop like the Vileda SuperMocio 3-Action mop, or the Vileda 1-2 Spray Mop. Mopping in an ‘8’ shape whilst pulling the mops towards you means you’re collecting the dirt rather than dispersing it, so you’re using your mop most effectively to get the best clean. You can easily control the desired dampness of the mop - the more you press the pedal, the drier the mop. Another top tip – make sure your mop head is completely dry before putting it away, so why not pop your mop head outside on a clear day to let it air-dry?

Any grease or oils that may be on your floor can react with boiling water, softening and spreading while you’re mopping, meaning you’re actually spreading the mess around rather than cleaning it up. We all do it – the washing machine beeps when it’s finished, but we think to ourselves: “I’ll just finish this and then get them out later”. Well, if ‘later’ is over half an hour, this could be affecting your clothes (and perhaps even your health!) There are real benefits to cleaning the floor in a figure of 8. Not only will your floor be cleaner, but research shows that stretching too far with your mop forces you to bend unnecessarily and grip the mop tighter, which causes additional unnecessary strain on the body. So, there you have it - a new and exciting way to clean your bathroom! Hands up who will be trying this out?

Another vote for the Vileda Turbo mop, the spin function leaves floors quite dry, and the mop head can go in the machine.” Tried and tested by Mumsnet user DespairingHomeowner Our verdict Not only is it easy to use, it gives a thorough clean. The microfibre in the mop head removes over 99% of all bacteria with just water*, without the need for chemicals. Your choice of cleaning liquid can be used if preferred. This is one of the reasons why most cleaning agents recommend using warm water rather than boiling. Remember to always use a mop with microfibre for cleaning up greasy mess. There comes a time when your mop head is past its best, and we recommend replacing your mop head every three months. But, instead of having to replace your whole mop when that time comes, simply replace the mop head instead!
