Buying guide for the best mop to clean your vinyl plank floor

The vinyl plank floor is beautiful, durable, and affordable. That is why it is the most favorite floor type nowadays. Vinyl floor maintenance is also easy to do since this material resists moisture better than hardwood floor or laminate floor. But that doesn't mean you should not take good care of your vinyl floor. I'd like to introduce a buying guide for the best mop to clean your vinyl floor. Let's get started!

Types of mop

Understanding how different mops work can help you determine which one is the best mop for Vinyl floors and which one is a big "NO" to protect your floor.


  • String mop: The mophead is made of cotton cleaning strings. This type is good for absorbing water and scrubbing but takes a long time to dry which may cause mildew to develop.
  • Strip mop: This type is similar to the string mop but instead of cotton strings, the mop head is made with synthetic fabric strips. That's why this mop will dry faster and be less prone to mildew.
  • Flat mop: The mophead is flat with a microfiber pad attached to it. This type is pretty lightweight and can clean a bigger area in one swipe compared to others. Some pads are machine-washable so you don't have to do the job.
  • Sponge mop: This type is very powerful in scrubbing grime and stain thanks to the sponge head. But since the sponge absorbs water so much, this mop is heavier than others.
  • Spray mop: With the spray bottle built into the unit, this mop eliminates the bucket which makes it more convenient. You can put some scented oil into the water to make the air smell nice after cleaning.
  • Steam mop: This mop distributes hot steam for cleaning so it is a powerful tool. Unfortunately, the hot steam can damage the adhesive so this is not the best mop for Vinyl plank floors.


Things to consider

There are some essential things to a mop that make it clean vinyl floor better than others:


  • Mophead: The mophead material should be highly absorbent and soft to prevent excess water and not damage the surface of your vinyl floor.
  • Wringing mechanism: Not everyone is strong enough to squeeze a mop constantly. You should consider an easy-to-use wringing mechanism like a spin mop.
  • Handle: During cleaning, we may need to use force on the handle to scrub out the debris. That's why a sturdy handle is a must. This also helps the mop stay intact if you accidentally drop it.
  • Maneuverability: A 360-degree mophead can get under furniture and into tight spaces easier. The mop should also be lightweight so you won't get tired when you have to clean for a long time.
  • Height adjustable: There are other members in the family who will help you with cleaning, so think of getting a mop that is height adjustable so they can use it comfortably. You can even clean hard-to-reach areas when your mop can get longer than usual.
