What are the chinese characters for looking for the wood laminate thingy? I’d be curious to study the prices for DIY.

From elsewhere on the site, hǎidǎoxíngdìbǎn. Not sure if it’s literally “island shape floor”, or if the haidao is something else:

Laminate flooring, known locally as hai3dao3xing2di4ban3, is the way to go. It won’t warp like real hardwood and it’s more affordable. It should set you back between $3000 to $8000 per ping, depending on the grade and brand.
