Love my Swiffer vac. It vacs and swiffers at the same time. Lightweight & super easy to use.

Hope this helps!

We use Fenn Turbo II. It works out greatly.

Love my electorlux upright - it is excellent for hardwood floors. I've had the Dyson - it was awful. I thought about the canister but did not want to lug that around - love the electrolux.

Yes, for regular cleaning, Bona is the best cleaner and you should use with a microfiber mop. Swiffer is an example of a microfiber mop and Bona has their own version. You can buy these on Amazon. For vacuums on hardwood, you need to be careful as most are made for carpets and will scratch your floor. Bissell has a great one for hardwood. You can read more about that and some other options in this article: http://theflooringgirl.com/blog/best-vacuum-hardwood-floors.html

We have a Miele that's great. It's a less expensive model since it's strictly suction, has no electric in the hose and no head with a motorized beater bar. Their articulating head is very effective at getting under low furniture.
