Wood Laminate FLoor in Bathroom?

becs

We have bamboo flooring in ours and it's been down for 3 years and we have absolutely no issues with it at all in the bathroom. Most of the house has it down, the whole of downstairs and then the bathroom and our bedroom upstairs. We only have carpet in our spare rooms and stairs and landing and I much prefer the wood. It's so easy to keep it looking good and it's hygenic in a bathroom but warm on your feet.

We have had ordinary laminate flooring in our bathroom for several years now and it has been great. There are five of us ( 3 kids under 10 ), it takes anything we throw at it and still looks as good as new. I must add that it is a pretty cheap one from Homebase as it was all we could afford at the time. I would say go for it.

I've got it in my bathroom, been down about 7 years now and still going strong.

I fitted the B&Q stuff about 8 years ago. It's lasted very well, and was easy to fit. I didn't seal it at all.
We have three kids, the floor is left under a pile of wet towels all day and night, if it's not just left underwater.
The edges of the laminate have swollen slightly, it was a white wood colour, now the edges are slightly visible, but no cracks or chipped edges.
The timberland one is a ridiculous price compared to the B&Q, and I reckon mine would last 20 years based on it so far.
I have fitted the B&Q to another bathroom, I sealed the joints with PVA, no lifting at all yet, but it's only been a year.
