Laminates from Germany has the best look & durable grooves. But ALL laminates are not water proof. they will warp with moisture/water. I go expo & see supreme (i think) they put the whole piece in water.. was impressed.. than i check with my ID, he say..1 full piece is not a problem cos all the sides are protected/waxed but when you cut any laminate..it's MDF inside.. water touch..sure spoil. He say use laminates if you want to go for the look & yet save money.. but if you need water proof like in kitchen or if you have pets or children who will spill water etc... use vinyl planks.. suggested those that look like wood. Personally, i went to look at HERF & Galaxy flooring.. they both got 10 - 14 designs i think.. now considering these. Maybe going for galaxy cos the missus like 1 color.
