cleaning hardwood floors?

can anyone recommend what to clean hardwood floors with? we've been using murphy's oil once a week and it looks horrible. it looks like a coating on top.

We just had new oak wood floors done. We were told not to use any types of wood floor cleaners, like Murphys, Swiffer, etc... they leave a layer of film, wax build up that is not good for the long term. So I use a soft dust mop to clean them first, then I use a soft damp mop with hot water sometimes with a tiny bit of amonia. They come out great.

We use the Bona system too. this is what the floor company recommended when we had the floors re-done. It works pretty well.
