Pergo 055131 Elegant Expressions Laminate Flooring, 7.6-Inch by 47.4-Inch Plank Size with 14.99 Total Square Feet per Carton, English Black Walnut

I bought 2 cartons of this to make a chairmat for my wife's home office. The stuff looks great and is durable and I placed it right over the carpet, a really easy install.

This product had a few defects. I bought about 50 cartons and I'd say there were a total of 3-4 planks that were flawed from the factory. The problem I had was with Amazon's poor packaging and shipping of the product. Several cartons had shipping damage and Amazon was of very little help. Amazon does wel with most items but failed miserably on this one. If you can find this product locally, then you'll do fine.. but do not buy it through Amazon.
