Pergo Floors
What do you think? Anything to look for especially? We have decided
to get rid of the indoor/outdoor carpet, since the dog came. But Pergo seems ideal and easier to keep clean. Any opinions? TIA aloha, Thunder smithfarms.com Farmers of 100% Kona Coffee & other Great Stuff |

Pergo Floors
Have a pergo in kitchen, light wood, 2 dogs, it always looks dirty
because the floor is so perfectly smooth and even in shine. It will hold up but it depends on area used. We have real oak and tile and they dont show dirt like pergos semi gloss finish. I heard the complaint before but did not believe it till I saw it. |

Pergo Floors
Do you mean laminate flooring in general? Pergo used to be "the
name" now there are many manufacturers. I installed some in my basement workshops. 7 mm thick, treated seams, 35 year warrranty for under $1.00 sq.ft.. It looks good. You can spend a lot more. There should be no standing water on the floor, so you would need to be diligent wiping up around doorways. The floor doesn't feel like wood - it's not. A tablesaw and a spinsaw make the job a great deal easier. It's pretty easy to do. |

Whether you use Pergo or not, the dog will come again unless you get
him neutered..... :-) "We have decided to get rid of the indoor/outdoor carpet, since the dog came. But Pergo seems ideal and easier to keep clean." |

Read warranties. Compare Mannington with Pergo and others especially on
water and wear and tear issues. After doing that we went with a Mannington click floor and it is doing great. Even in kitchen, bath and laundry rooms. "smithfarms pure kona" wrote in message ...
