What I had hoped to use is
laminated flooring but it is made with formaldehyde glues just like
melamine and this has been proven to be unsafe.

So, why are you worried? If it is smell- our install didn't smell a
bit. If it is paranoya, I can't help you.


It would appear that the original poster is concerned about the health
effects of out-gassing formaldehyde-based adhesives, rather than the
smell as such. If that strikes you as paranoid, then I think you're
right that you can't help.
