I did, just once, and the floor now crackles all over whenever you step on it.

No, never!

- Edit - The warranty on most laminate floors will be voided if you use a steam mop on them. That being said, it really depends on the quality. Some very high quality laminate floors, like that used in commercial building can withstand it, but most low end laminate floors in residential building are very susceptible to water damage and should be treated carefully. If you insist on using a steam mop on laminate, only use one that allows you to trigger the steam on and off with a button at the handle and only use a short burst every once on a while to dampen the floor cloth. You are better off not using one at all though.
