What are the advantages of using laminate over wood flooring?

We are building a house in the FL panhandle and are planning on using laminate instead of wood flooring, but I am interested to see what others have to say. . . .

laminate can look a lot like wood without having the cost and maintenance concerns.

Cheaper…but if you decide to sell later, this will definately be reflected in the resale value.

Listen to Joker. I am presently having to replace a wood floor that someone else decided was a good idea to place in a kitchen area. It was never even sealed. Needless to say, it was coming up everywhere. We are replacing it with laminate.

Laminate is cheaper and easier to install than wood, but we chose to have ceramic tile installed in all of our house. It is about the same cost as wood flooring and an lot more durable. We use rugs in selected places to add color and comfort.

Depends on your $$ situation. Properly installed and sealed, a wood floor is better looking than laminate and adds more value; however, most people use the laminates today because it’s easier and more durable.
