Laminate flooring handles most furniture very well. In the situation of furniture that moves a lot, such as dining room chairs, use felt pads to protect your floor. You may want to add felt pads to the bottom of your sofas and other stationary chairs if they have the chance of being pushed around. For office chairs that roll around, you should purchase a plastic mat to sit under the chair so you aren’t rolling on top of the laminate. When moving furniture, it is always better to lift it up and carry it instead of dragging it on the floor. If there is any dirt or grit beneath the legs of the object you’re moving, it could potentially lead to deep scratches.

If you expect your space to have a large amount of foot traffic, such as an entryway, choose a laminate flooring with a an AC rating of AC4 or AC5. These higher rated laminates will withstand the commotion better than lower rated laminates.
