4 reasons why I chose laminate flooring for my nursery

We started renovating the children's room. And we were faced with the task of choosing a floor covering. We have a showroom in the city that sells the products of the popular manufacturer Tarkett, where you can choose parquet, linoleum, laminate and quartz-vinyl. Where my husband and I went.

It is very convenient that the store has a consultant who helps with the choice of goods, talking about the advantages and disadvantages of one or another coverage, showing in a 3D projection how the floor will look like with this coating, and calculating the required number of packages of goods for your needs.

The first reason. The plans were to lay quartz-vinyl, but the seller dissuaded. We previously had a parquet board and the floor was not even enough in places. And vinyl tiles require a perfect surface. I didn't want to bother with the screed and floor filling.

Criterias of choice

The main conditions when choosing a floor covering were:

· Environmental friendliness;

· Anti-vandal coating;

· The beauty;

· Price.

So the choice fell on the Tarkett Navigator 33 class Columbus laminate with a bevel. This class is suitable for premises with high intensity of use. The board is 12 mm thick, which helps to suppress noise and gives greater resistance to stress.

In the nursery, where something is constantly falling, various cars are actively jumping and rolling - ideal.

Embossed drawing and the second reason. The manufacturer, using the technology of synchronous embossing on a laminate board, recreates the texture of natural wood not only visually, but also by touch. Passing your hand, you feel every knot, the pattern of the tree ring and the saw cut. A clear impression is created that you are touching a natural wood.

We chose Columbus - deep brown. The board is treated with a special wax for moisture resistance, which also provides the gloss and beauty of the laminate texture.

Due to the presence of the chamfer, the coating is given additional expressiveness and resemblance to a real solid wood. Another advantage is that it allows you to hide possible unevenness in the floor.

Third reason. Laminate from this manufacturer is completely safe for residential use and has the Leaf of Life eco-label for its coatings. It contains compressed wood fiber and paper. In the room where the child will live, this criterion is one of the most significant.

The fourth reason. Fast and easy installation that even non-professionals can handle thanks to the TC-Lock. The boards are quite simply connected to each other, it is only necessary to think over the laying pattern.

How did I manage to save money when buying.

Having decided on the choice of flooring, we paid and waited for delivery. But you know the female nature: you want to see everything again, show your friend. Typing the name of the laminate in a search engine, I came across a special offer in the Petrovich store, where the product was presented at a cost lower than that of the official distributor. It turned out that the manufacturer, in order to expand the sales market, delivered its products below the purchase price.

We have issued a return of goods and ordered the cover in the Petrovich store. The savings for a room of 10 square meters amounted to about 3 thousand rubles. Did you manage to save a lot on repairs without compromising the quality of the goods?
