Questions and Answers for Pergo Presto Washington Cherry 8 mm Thick x 7-5/8 in. Wide x 47-5/8 in. Length Laminate Flooring (20.17 sq. ft. / case)

A:  Hello! Unfortunately the Pergo Presto Washington Cherry is fully depleted. The closes color alternative is the Pergo Haley Oak sold at Home Depot. It is not an exact match. Please see link below. https://www.pergoflooring.com/shop/laminate/xp/detail/LF000772/haley-oak?title=Pergo%20XP. Thank you for your Pergo inquiry. -Amy

A:  Thank you for your interest in Pergo. Please visit our Pergo website to order samples of these floors.

A:  Thank you for your interest in Pergo. You can order a sample on homedepot.com or at na.pergo.com.

A:  Pergo that I used in the past manages minor spills and damp mopping with no issues. However, if you experience a major spill, I recommend removing the floor ASAP to allow the floor surface time to dry.

A:  I installed this in our sons bedroom. Trust me his spills of soda and water have been of no issue. Though I would recommend getting the sealant they offer for the edges in case you have a water accident that would go to the edges of the flooring. Liquid will not penetrate through the top but if it rolls to the walls then the water can get underneath the flooring and cause mold/mildew or be absorbed by the exposed edges of the flooring material. Other than that engineered hardwood flooring is designed not to allow water to enter in through the seams or top/bottom. Oh, one more thing. Tile might be better because it is less likely to scratch when moving heavy equipment across it but it is messier to install, harder to repair or replace, and not as attractive as wood in my opinion.

A:  This cheap garbage warps like you wouldn't believe! If it gets wet it is warped in a fraction of a second! I'm not even kidding!

A:  The decision to install a laminate or a tile product is up to you. Laminate floors are warranted if moisture is removed within 30 minutes because the core is HDF (wood based). Laminates also require extra installation steps to help protect your investment.

A:  Any laminate will bubble if exposed to a lot of moisture - that's why you should put a moisture barrier underlayment down first. I used traffic master allure in my laundry room, kitchen and bath room. It water proof and look like wood.

A:  As long as the floor is a laminate and not wood, I don't think it should be a problem...unless there is excessive water accumulating then I wouldn't suggest laminate in the laundry room.

A:  No this item has no padding you have to buy that separately.

A:  ***Padding is not included*** It is suggested when installing on any floor, but I will tell you that when I installed this on my second floor bedroom I decided to go without the padding to see how it would work out. So far I can't see any reason why to put it under it. I have a perfectly flat floor, it's wood, and no nails or anything else is protruding to damage the bottom. The bonus is that without the padding it gives it a stiffer feel under the feet so it makes it feel like a real hardwood floor.

A:  there is no attached underlayment.

A:  This does not have underlayment attached. We bought the Roberts UNISON white roll of underlayment noted in the "accessories" on this product page.

A:  This product does not have an attached underlayment. You will need to purchase seperately.

A:  No, you must buy the underlayment. You can choose how much you wish to spend and how thick of underlayment you want. The underlayment helps with water repelling and sound absorption.

A:  No. You will need to purchase padding in order to install Presto Washington Cherry.
