Pergo Extreme is vinyl, specifically luxury vinyl plank (LVP), not laminate, though Pergo brand offers both laminate and vinyl, so Pergo Extreme is Pergo's luxury vinyl plank line that is 100 percent waterproof with rigid core. Pergo was founded in 1977 in Sweden and invented laminate flooring, which is HDF high-density fiberboard core that is not waterproof, but Pergo now offers both Pergo laminate like Outlast Plus and TimberCraft which are laminate, and Pergo Extreme which is luxury vinyl plank with rigid core technology, waterproof construction, 20 mil wear layer, realistic wood embossing, attached pad, and lifetime residential warranty, costing 2 to 4 dollars per square foot materials, suitable for kitchens, bathrooms, and basements. Pergo Extreme is made by Mohawk Industries which owns Pergo since 2013, and is similar to Mohawk SolidTech LVP which is also good quality vinyl plank. So Pergo Extreme is vinyl, not laminate, it is Pergo's waterproof luxury vinyl plank line that competes with Shaw Floorte Pro and COREtec, while Pergo Outlast is laminate. To tell difference, check product name, Extreme is vinyl, Outlast is laminate. So Pergo Extreme is vinyl LVP, not laminate.
