Please consider another flooring option. Laminate floors are not practical and sound plasticky when you walk on them. They also tend to warp over time, and cannot be refinished. Would you consider solid or engineered hardwood?

They bounce is what it feels like when I walk on it. Almost squishy.

I agree with DBI. Pergo (and any fake wood) is junk. Scratches are permanent. The "wood" is just a photo, and light never plays across it as it does on real wood, which changes as the wood grain catches light from different angles as you walk. And after a few years, the edges of the individual boards all cup slightly--a dead give-away.
