Please post pics of your laminate wood floor in your kitchen

We are considering ripping up the tile and bringing the pergo floor that is currently in the living room/hallway into the kitchen. Pros and cons to doing this?

Re: Please post pics of your laminate wood floor in your kitchen

Currently we have Laminate flooring in our kitchen, and we are going to be ripping it up and putting down tile, I believe.

The pros are that it is easy to clean and that it looks really good.

The cons are that if your sink or dishwasher leaks, the floor will lift and bubble. We had a sink leak and this is what happened to us. The water went underneath the floor and caused the floor to bubble.

We have laminate in our kitchen it is Shaw Laminate. It looks great. We don't have a dishwasher though Chat Icon so that sort of leak is not a problem. luckily we've never had a sink leak!

I cant think of any cons to ours. It was SO easy to install, DH did it in a few hours. Its unbelievably easy to maintain, it looks great. LOVE IT!

ETA: we had our dishwasher connection come loose and flooded the kitchen, we didnt have a single problem with the floors.

When we had the condo my DH installed the pergo himself..it wasn't a hard job. However, in the house..I personally would not do pergo (my opinion) and kitchen tiles for me! you never know...leaks, spills, scratches (pets) you name it..everyone has their preferences. HTH
