I'm sold on laminate - I know that's what I want, and I also know that I want the strips, not the traditional planks, the strips with the beveled edges. Now, we had chose a Pergo style (World Traveler - Merbau), but anything else I should look at? I want something that's going to hold up to abuse (kids, dogs, etc.) - it won't be in the wet areas. We're about to make the purchase, and I just don't want to overlook anything.
