Customer Reviews for Pergo Outlast+ Java Scraped Oak 12 mm T x 6.1 in. W Waterproof Laminate Wood Flooring (16.1 sqft/case)

We used Pergo-Outlast-Paradise-Jatoba for whole first floor . Never use water mod to clean , no water pilled on it . Only doing vacuum . But the surface waving after 1 year as picture. This product has not good quality. We claimed for warranty and want to change to engineering wood but Homedepot not agree with that . Very disappointed about Homedepot customer care :(

Easy to put down, and beautiful.

Absolutely beautiful. Can’t wait to do the rest of the downstairs. Doing one room at a time. We used pergo gold underpayment and was probably the best idea we ever had in a renovation. Attached pics of kitchen Reno.

Love this floor! We've had numerous houses with different types of floor and the Antique Cherry is, by far, my favorite look! So warm looking! Home Depot was so easy to work with and the installation went perfectly (used the installation services from Home Depot). They installers did a great job and were even able to undercut the fireplace stones to make a perfect fit. I love the color and texture. While this floor (Antique Cherry) has only been installed for about a month, we've had Pergo Outlast (Paradise Jatoba) installed in other rooms over the last couple of years and it holds up great. I work at home and have a desk chair with wheels, and I roll all over the Pergo in that chair and it hasn't made a scratch in three years of working everyday at that desk. This stuff is unbelievably durable! Also - there is absolutely no sound when walking on the floor - no creaks or pops - completely silent! I highly recommend this floor!

My husband and i installed in our kitchen, have had it for two months and love it! Its beautiful and easy to install. Looks real. It does show every spec of dirt and dust, i sweep a lot but we have a dog and its a high traffic area id imagine most would be okay

I didn’t listen to the reviewers that said this chips like nothing else — I really, really should have listened. $5,000 later and just one single year in, I am left with the most chipped and peeling floors ever. I am so upset and disappointed, it looks awful and looks like I have crumbs all over the floor all the time!! I have had Pergo floors before and they have held up; I didn’t think twice about going for this but god, I am so upset and bothered by the amount of time and money I lost on this. I am sure my dogs’ nails didn’t help, but it’s chipped in places where my dogs don’t even go. STAY FAR AWAY!!

We installed it in our house on our own. First we did the main living areas then the bedrooms. We love it. Great with pets and spills. We do not have any scratches at all. We have the Outlast Scraped oak finish. I love the finish.

Was a little worried with the color and my cabinets but it matched beautifully. Loved the color and how it looks very natural wood like. Very pleased with it and have had alot of compliments.

The floor was very easy to install and looks amazing, I've received compliments from friends and neighbors

Love how easy to install this is. Once you get the hang of how they click together you fly through installation. The color is beautiful and the quality is amazing. We are loving this floor.

It was difficult to install. Wanted to bow alot in the middle. Had to use the weight of full boxes, then also stapled the ends down, staples hid under newly installed baseboards. Highland hickory was much easier to install. Love the look!

I was hesitant at first since the flooring didn’t look like the preview. After finishing the master, it looked great! Startited the livingroom, and was amazed on how real it looks! Was easy to piece together and cut by turning the boards 180 deg to measure the right length. Just becareful when finishing with a 1/2 board as it tends to stick up 1/4 inch. Trimit out and make sure it doesn’t seperate before nailing. Over all, it looks great. Will be finishing up the study and master closet. So far, it took 27 boxes for the 2 rooms. See attached pic to notice 4 differant boxes being used at each setting. Don’t use all from same boxes, mismatch each layout from the 4. Definately glad i bought it!

Absolutely beautiful and easy to install. Did whole house in 2 days. I will definitely buy this product again.

My husband and I waffled back and forth between hardwood and laminate for MONTHS before finally deciding to replace our floors with this Pergo Outlast. We chose this product because it’s waterproof, high on the hardness scale, and really resembles wood. My husband and a friend installed the (floating) floor in our kitchen, dining, and living rooms, as well as in the entryway, over the course of a weekend. The boards snap tightly together, and, when necessary, cut beautifully. We didn’t have one damaged board in 20 boxes. Because our floor was installed over existing vinyl and MDF sub-flooring with the removal of carpet, we didn’t have to buy and use a separate underlayment or vapor barrier. The color and hand-scraped finish are beautiful, the floor feels good underfoot, is solid, and doesn’t echo with the “hollow” sound I’ve always associated with laminate flooring. Since the floor was laid, our 18 month old granddaughter has dropped a big metal tape measure and innumerable toys, and none have left a mark - neither a dent nor a mark in the finish. We have four dogs, including two big ones, and the floor has withstood their raucous play, and their charging the front door when the bell is rung. We couldn’t be happier with our purchase and installation of Java Scraped Oak Pergo Outlast - and everyone who’s seen it has loved it.

Nice heavy material. Goes together easy. Seems very scratch resistant, but has only been down a week.

Beautiful color and markings. Easy to install. So happy with my purchase!

Easy install, beautiful results!

We love this floor. Each plank has beautiful grain detail! The color is pretty and has a matte finish. Thats the only reason I gave it 4 stars not 5 due to it not having that much shine. It was installed 4 days ago and we let our 2 dogs roam free on it, NO scratches... We have a weimaraner and jack russell. We will never have anything other then Pergo Outlast!!!

My husband and I installed our floor ourselves and love how it turned out! We have 2 dogs and a toddler who likes to beat up on it and it is super durable and gets loads of traffic. We installed it in 2017 and it still looks great 2 years later. I am confident it will last and last! The floor is super easy to clean and we get loads of compliments on it!

First time installing laminate, looked long and hard at the different options and selection and LOVED this flooring for its coloring, pattern, and the natural looking scrapes and scratches that made it look so real. I couldn't find it in any Home Depot so I could see it in person however, none of the stores had it at all so I took a chance on it and it luckily paid off. It was a bear of an installation only because I had never done this kind of thing before, but it turned out great and if you knew what you were doing it would be a lot easier. Here's some tips that may help you: -Buy a kit that includes a tapping block and mallet and as many spacers as possible. You will also do well to have a small pry bar or you will never be able to finish a row properly. The set I purchased had a two-sided mallet. The metal side was great for tapping boards together width wise, and the rubber side was ideal for hammering at the end of the length to seat the row together. I also had a more expensive larger rubber mallet which I used for hammering the board down and locking the tongues together. -The directions tell you to install the long end, then the short end. I don't know what they are smoking but that's impossible since the board has to be inserted at an angle. If you do it that way your row will continuously come up and lead to massive frustration. -Take the long end first, insert the next board and slide it down close to the last board in your row but far enough away that there is a gap (otherwise you will break the tongue when you lock the tongue in on the longer side). Then, use the tapping block to seat the board straight lengthwise and use a rubber mallet to hammer the board down. You really do have to use a lot of force, and you have to ensure that after you hammer it down and it locks that the board is completely seated, you can use the tapping block to hammer it in and make sure there is no space. -Then, hammer it from the short end into the short end of the last board in the row until there is no gap. -Then give it an extra wack or two to really tighten in the row. -Its useful to have a helper to tell you when to stop, without you can end up hammering too much and like I did at one point and ended up hammering a row and the spacer into the drywall. Without a helper you have to stop constantly to check which will slow you down. It's also helpful to have someone else who can put some weight on the boards you've just finished to make sure everything stays nice and tight. They suggest using a row of unopened product but then you gotta continually lift it and move it around which also slows you down. -Inspect each board when you take it out of the package, I know exactly where there are a few mistakes because I did not check and then afterwards I noticed an edge was coming up or while trying to hammer endlessly I realized it would not go because the tongue or groove was damaged. Also, be sure to mix up the boards from different boxes, always have 3 boxes open and juggle taking from the boxes so some boxes are fresh. This helps you avoid repetitive patterns next to each other which is especially important with this floor to avoid it looking fake. -Measure measure measure. I'm not great with doing calculations and measurements in my head so I used painter's tape to make the boards. You have to reverse the measurements which is hard to explain but think of it this way, when you make a cut at the end of a row, 1 side needs to have a tongue/groove to fit into the last board in that row, and the other side needs to be straight to go against the wall. It takes a bit of juggling in your head at times but that is the biggest hangup. -Another huge measuring thing is if you can get a good mockup of your floorplan and measure everything out even just somewhat it will save you from ending up with pieces that are too small to use. I did not do this and have a few funky pieces at the ends. I can cover them with molding but I still know they're there. I do have some minor concerns about the long-term reliability of this product. For example, some boards were already damaged when they came out. They were in boxes wrapped in film and packed on a pallet, so they couldn't have had too much damage done to them. Additionally, one drop of a screw driver took a gouge out of the finish. This doesn't bode well for any heavy traffic area like a kitchen. I'm glad this is just my bedroom. We'll see how it lasts! For right now I love the product and the look, and since I ordered some extra Home Depot was great about taking back the unused unopened boxes and giving me that hot refund. Couldn't be happier!

Looks great, great quality, did my whole house in this, very happy

This product was very beautiful. It was durable and was definitely upgrade in my living area.

Great product, looks amazing completely changed the look of my room

I love my new floor! Absolutely Beautiful!

Out last flooring was so easy to install and looks great i'm very Happy and will be buying more Thank You home depot ..

I love the wide plank of this flooring. The distressed look makes it look very expensive.

This is a beautiful product. Easy to install, results beautiful

This product is relatively easy to install the preparation of the surface is key. The product can withstand hard knocks and is easy to remove liquid spills. I am still searching for a practical way to clean the surface and create a shiny appearance. It is also necessary to put an underlayment to hold area rugs on place.

Excellent flooring. A little harder to install due to 2 edges locking in instead of one like regular laminate, but that prevents any seams from popping extremely well. Installed normal in front room and then backwards into my kitchen to avoid a room transition. Looks amazing!

I have had this flooring in my house for over 2 years now. I must admit it is AMAZING! I installed myself as a novice with very few problems. I have 3 dogs who run, walk and play on it daily and you cannot find a single scratch mark. spills or dog accidents are a simple cleanup and muddy paw prints are no longer a hassle... I only wish I would have installed it sooner. this is a must buy for pet owners who want a durable, high end wood flooring.
