Thanks for sharing this! I’m a renter and have wood floors and have been wondering what the best product was to clean them. I’ll definitely give Murphy’s a try.

I tried Murphy’s Oil Soap for the fist time this weekend, and I have to say I was really disappointed. I followed the directions to the T, diluted with water, and my espersso-colored hardwood was streaky. DISLIKE. I went over it with my Norwex mop and stillw wasn’t able to get it all. I won’t be using the Murphy’s again. 🙁

Thanks for this timely post! We need to rip up the carpet in our upstairs due to allergies, and I’ve been researching hardwood (outside of budget), laminate, and engineered hardwood. You’ve helped put a few checks in the “engineered” column.

Two things: 1) I would strongly consider wearing a Murphy Oil Soap scented cologne. Would need to pass that one by my wife though. Love that smell, and love using it around the house.

2) The National Arbor Day Foundation is great, and when you pay their 10 dollar membership fee, they send you 10 actual trees for you to plant. They let you pick from a pre-set list of different trees, some of which are ten of the same tree, others are a mix. Best deal around, and it's for a good cause.
