You have invested in your hardwood flooring and we know you will do almost anything to keep it in mint condition. That is why you welcome products that help make maintaining your investment a cinch. One of the leading cleaning agents in the market today and highly recommended by several wood installers is Bona hardwood floor cleaner. It comes in a 32-ounce bottle spray and in a 128-ounce container that is ready to use as refill. Its manufacturer claims it to have no dulling residue and to be safe for your wood floors, your family and the environment. Let’s see what homeowners who have tried this product have to say about it.

Bona Hardwood Floor Cleaner Shines With Good Consumer Feedback

Great way to revive worn-out wood floors. For some homeowners, using Bona hardwood floor cleaner has made a difference in their old worn out looking floors. Some were previously using other “hardwood floor cleaners and soaps” that actually scrape the finish off. But when they were using Bona already, their floors looked like it was newly refinished. They say it does a great job in getting rid of dirt and bringing back the shine of wood floors. It works perfectly for polyurethane finished hardwood floors.

Easy to use. It does not take much to use it to clean the floor especially with the spray that comes with the bottle. They also recommend using the cleaning agent with the microfiber mop cover which the manufacturer also sells.

Lackluster Performance. While there were many positive reviews about Bona, a handful of criticisms also surfaced. The most common complaint was that it did not really bring out the extra shine that some reviews promised. These set of users say that you actually have to use the Bona polish. Come to think of it, it makes senses that the Bona hardwood floor cleaner cleans your floor, while Bona polish makes it shine. Maybe the reviews have exaggerated the usefulness of the product.

“No Dulling Residue” Claim is a Lie. Some consumers who tried the product also complained that instead of the shine that some reviews claim, the floor cleaner actually left their wood flooring with cloudy film that made the floor look dull instead of making it shine. One helpful user suggested that the microfiber pad used to apply the cleaner on the floor be rinsed thoroughly to prevent dull residue from appearing. Doing this will make Bona’s claim true.

Bona hardwood floor cleaner does a good job delivering its main purpose of cleaning hardwood floors and works best when complemented with Bona polish. Extra attention in rinsing the pad used to apply it must be done to ensure that no dull residue is left.
