What is the best vacuum cleaner for a laminate floor?

The best vacuum cleaner for a laminate floor is one that disengages the roll brush on the bottom of the vacuum, according to Bane-Clean professional cleaners. The spinning brush sometimes damages floors that have a hard surface.

The roll brush, also called a beater bar, tends to push aside debris when the vacuum is used on a hard floor, rather than causing crumbs and dirt to be sucked up into the unit. If an appropriate vacuum is not available, another option is to sweep the floor with a broom or dry mop, then use a vacuum with attachments to clean tight areas, such as corners.
