We are pulling up the laminate and carpet in our kitchen and dining area this weekend and putting in Pergo. We decided to go with Pergo because it is a higher quality laminate and it is easy to install (theoretically) and it is about half the price of real wood. I would prefer real wood but it doesn't fit our current budget.
I had my friends over to look at my 15+ flooring samples and we finally came to the consensus that a warmer wood color because it matches my cabinets better. This isn't a color that I would initially be drawn to but I think (hope) it will look good with the cabinets and walls. Wish us luck!

When we designed my grand parents kitchen over a year ago we were instructed by several designers that matching the wood in your cabinets and flooring (especially if they will not be stained w/ the same stain) is not necessary. However if you prefer to match as close as you can...than go for it.
ReplyDeleteWhoops, I probably should have said looks better with my cabinets because it certainly doesn't match! Our cabinets are a light oak so this flooring will be a nice dark contrast.
ReplyDeleteI love Pergo- really, I do. It's improved so much in the last few years so it's a great quality and feels comfy on my feet. And I love all the options available!
