I have laminate floors and nothing I use gets them really clean and always leave streaks.
I have tried swiffer wet jet, microfiber mop with just water and vinegar, microfiber mop with diluted Fabuloso, Shark Steam Mop....NOTHING works and I am starting to lose my mind.

I had the same problem. I eventually tried Armstrong Wood & Laminate Floor Cleaner, came in a spray bottle. It wasn't perfect, but it was the best I found

Did you spray it on the floor and use a sponge mop? rag mop? microfiber mop?
I am really at a loss and I really don't want to get on my hands and knees and start scrubbing.

Re: I need help with my Laminate Floors
I have light oak colored laminate in the kids rooms and I've never had that problem. Hmmm... Do you have a dark color? I know even with wood dark colors show everything.
I use a microfiber mop and vinegar and water on the floors.

I have light oak too and I see everything!!! My house is positioned that the sun rises on the front of my house and sets in the back so during the day I see everything on the floors.

I sprayed it on the floor and used a sponge mop or microfiber mop (I have since moved from that home and can't remember for sure), but definitely wasn't down on the floor scrubbing it. I would usually have to lightly go over some spots a second time to get rid of some streaks, but compared to everything else I tried, this worked the best.

I use pine-sol and warm water. I use a old burp cloth and just wash/scrub using my hands.

Get the cleaner made for laminate and make sure the mop you use only gets used for that.

The steam mop usually works for our laminate. I do have to make sure I change the cloth very often. Halfway between uses if the floor is filthy (which happens more often than I want to admit) and after every use if it's just mildly dirty.
