Laminate flooring prices 2017?

Would anybody have recommendations on where to get good prices on high quality laminate floors in 2017?

Just today we decided on a floor type so I've been on the google machine looking for the best price for this 12MM MAMMUT 4V AC5 Everest Oak Beige. (Has anybody any experience of this floor or product quality?)

So far, I'm finding Laminatewoodflooring.ie to be significantly cheaper than anywhere else in the market at €20.30 per m2 (most of the chancers in flooring are quoting using the smaller, per square yard so be aware of that). Woodflooring.ie has the exact same floor for €21.50 per m2. The precise same floor is over €7 per m2 more expensive on Floorstoredirect.ie.

However, the first two companies are in Cork and the delivery price needs to be factored on top of that so I'll have to contact them about that (3 delivery options for the 1st company). Has anybody had any dealings with either of those two companies?

I need about 120sqm of laminate. Would anybody have other recommendations along the lines of the product above? Thanks.

I went with laminatewoodflooring.ie and I concur they are the cheapest I could find. We used 8mm AC4. Apparently anything AC4 or higher is good... two of the boxes were faulty but they replaced them without issue and I think it wasn't their fault as the packs were sealed so they had no way of knowing. I went with a reputable brand (Kronotec) so was surprised to find the faulty boards in there tbh.

Excellent feedback; thanks. I had never heard of that site before but I had vaguely heard of Hollands, who own it. My floor is, as linked in the op, also a Swiss Krono/Kronotex floor (12mm, A5). That above website gave me a substantially reduced per sqm quote when I told him my quantity, by the way. Did you have any trouble installing them? I read some stuff written on a forum in 2009 saying installing Kronotex was difficult. But that's 8 years ago. How much were you charged to install them per sqm, or did you do it yourself?

We went with Wood Flooring Ireland (Martin) and were extremely pleased. I'd be surprised if he didn't price match.

Go into a shop and talk to someone face to face. You'll get a far better deal than just going by what you see online. I got quotes for 12mm Kronotex AC5 for €20 per m2, including "free" underlay. Ended up getting it much cheaper again through a contact, but of the 4 quotes I got in shops, they all bar one came in around the €20 psm mark. Plus you generally find you'll have far more come back if you go through a local shop.
