Thanks for suggestions - I should add that I previously had a steam mop at our old house but wasn't too happy with it. In our current house our floor tiler told us not to use a steam mop on the tiles, so DH doesn't want to use one (we gave our old one away anyway!!). Plus I felt the one we had (a kenwood I think) just didn't really clean very well.

Hmmm - am thinking of maybe the microfibre maps (with a 'strip' type head) and the wringer buckets, rather than the spong-head ones...

Any other thoughts??
