Best Mop for Vinyl Floors: Top Mopping Systems for Sensitive Floors

Despite having a reputation for durability, if you want your vinyl floors to shine for years to come, you still have to take care of it properly. That means you not only need the knowledge on how to clean it, but also the best tools for the job.

Some of the best mops for Vinyl floors have been compiled into this short list and review here by our team. See if any suits your fancy!

1. MASTERTOP Two Sided Dust Mop Floor Cleaning System

The MASTERTOP mop doesn’t have all of the fancy features of motorized spin mops or high-end spray mops. Nevertheless, that doesn’t stop it from becoming a great mop for vinyl floors.

Its design is basic: a long, aluminum handle attached to a swivelable cleaning head.

The handle, when fully assembled, is 44 inches long. Its length is adjustable. Structurally, the handle is made up of three separate metal poles that you can combine together. So if you want to make it shorter, just remove one or two poles.

Attaching the cleaning head to the handle is a swivel joint. It allows the cleaning head to rotate 360° and improves maneuverability.

The cleaning head can be attached with a mop pad. There are two types of mopping pads: one made from microfiber and one made from chenille fabric. Both types are safe for use on vinyl floors. You can use the microfiber for wet mopping and the chenille pad for dry mopping.

Affordable, yet highly effective. We think it’s a good fit for people who are looking for a basic mop that simply does the job without any bells and whistles attached.

2. MEXERRIS Microfiber Spray Mop

If you don’t want to deal with lugging a heavy water bucket around, a spray mop is going to be a good alternative. The best mop for Vinyl floors we found in the spray mop segment is the MEXERRIS Microfiber Spray Mop.

Its design isn’t all that different from a standard mop: you get a long, aluminum handle attached to a cleaning head via a swiveling joint.

The handle seems solid. It is made from three separate poles, so you can adjust the handle’s length by removing (or adding) the smaller poles to the assembly.

A 360°-swivelable joint connects the cleaning head to the handle. Our reviewers found that the joint rotates very smoothly and aids a lot with maneuvering through cramped spaces and around furniture.

The MEXERRIS microfiber spray mop, like its name suggests, uses microfiber mopping pads to clean your floor. Microfiber is a soft, non-abrasive material, so it is completely safe for use on vinyl floors (we checked).

In addition to the microfiber pad, the MEXERRIS also comes with chenille pads for dry mopping, too.

But here’s the main selling point of the MEXERRIS: the 410ml spray bottle. You can pour either plain water or floor cleaning formula into the bottle. After that, whenever you need to apply the liquid to the floor, you can pull the small trigger on the handle. A misting nozzle located near the bottom of the mop is going to spray out and dampen the floor in front of the mop.

The spraying system works really well. It sprays reliably and doesn’t soak the floor, just misting it (which is a good thing while you’re dealing with sensitive floors like vinyl).

Conclusion

Depending on what you’re looking for — a pure mop or a spray mop — make your selection accordingly. Any of these two models can be the best mop for Vinyl plank floors for you. Just give them a shot!
