Hi all, I am about to lay some Balterio Forissimo 12mm laminate and trying to choose an underlay. It will be laid onto chipboard on ground floor. I want to ensure the floor won't feel cold and so have looked at the Timbermate Excel which is 0.55 Tog or the Cush n Wood which is 1.0 tog. The Timbermate seems to get excellent reviews everywhere and is nice and heavy and dense. Although the Cush n Wood specs say it should be warmer it seems to look like thin carpet underlay and I do not want the floor to be a bit spongy. Anyone recommend one over the other or recommend an alternative? Our old house had a concrete floor and had underlay similar to Timbermate Excel but cheaper and probably only 0.3Tog. It can be a little cold on feet sometimes so trying to ensure new house won't be like this. Thanks Richard
The higher tog will be warmer/better insulator. They are both decent underlays Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
