I have a Hoover similar type machine.  Their instructions say to avoid a fire use only the Hoover brand supplied with the machine.

 

Your user booklet may say something similar.

I have a Crosswave.  I use Bona hardwood floor cleaner in mine all of the time with no problems.  I use the Bissell cleaner too and sometimes, just water.  

Mine is an older model and still works great.  I wouldn't use a cleaner that has alcohol or any oil in it.

I use whatever I would typically use to clean my floors. I've never had a problem.

The Crosswave is one of my favorite purchases!

@elated   The Crosswave IS wet/dry vacuum cleaner.  It is even advertised as such.

I have had the cordless crosswave and now I have the corded model that is also a steam cleaner. I have used Bissell cleaning product as well as othr brands, quite often I use Pine Sol. No problems at all doing so.

Since the Crosswave has a spray nozzle, it needs to be kept free of clogs which can happen with certain cleaners. That doesn't mean you can't use other cleaners. It means you need to run plain water through it after you're done with the cleaner to clear the nozzle with clean water.

@monicakm Good to know about featherlight.  I have been looking for one.

 

I love my Bissell Crosswave.  I use Armstrong floor cleaning solution which is leftover from fro my Hoover steam vac.


i am happy to know you can use Bona too.

 

Do you use Crosswave on laminate?
