Default Laminate flooring question

Anthony Lisanti wrote:
I'm looking to replace the cheap flooring that's down in my dining
room now. I have a sample from home depot. It's dupont product with
the padding glued to the back.

I had Empire come out and I showed him the sample. He said it wasn't
a good idea to have that backing glued to the back. He recommenced a
separate padding (Vapor barrier) then flooring.

Is there any pros or cons to this? Does it matter?


Did he say why?

Also check www.lumberliquidators.com - they are as much as half the price of
HD.

And yes, this is a job you can easily do yourself. I've done four rooms and
a 30' hallway. I liked it so much, I even used laminate flooring as a
countertop.

I'm gonna do the dog house next.
