I am an independent contrator who has isntalled and sold floor covering for the last 4 yrs. I have installaed hundreds of laminate jobs and I have seen it all. From an installation standpoint and ease of installation I have had the best experiences with Quick Step, Tarkett, and Pergo.

Those three also are my top reccomendations for quality and and they have a good name. My personal favorite is Quick Step by a longshot. I just think it has one of the best overall looks and it snaps in place so easy wich is a big plus if you are doing it yorself. Also, keep in mind that even the best brands sometimes have lower quality woods. Although I Have installed almost every quick step product and I would happily endorse all of them.

Pergo has always been good as well but I don't like some of there cheaper products. Other things to think about is the thickness of the wood wich usually starts at 6 mm with 7mm being the most common.

I recommend anything 8mm or thicker for a more dense sound while walking on it. If you do get something less i would recommend an upgraded pad like quite walk or smat padding especially if you are on concrete.

Armstrong and Dupont are good brands as well. I even like lamipro wich is not as mainstream and may not have the same reputation. But I have sold and installed it for many customers and It has alwayst turned out beautiful and the have good warranties. Also they offer special looks like handscraped and piano finish products for a much better price than some of their competitors.

You can also get best services from jandjgranites.com which will be perfectly fine.
