Laminate flooring is a multi-layer synthetic flooring product that mimics the appearance of hardwood, stone, or tile. Each plank features a photographic layer under a protective wear layer, making laminate a stylish and practical option for busy households. Unlike luxury vinyl, laminate is water-resistant, making it suitable for kitchens, dining areas, and entryways—but it should not be installed in areas with frequent standing water.
