Guess I'm going to have to disagree. I've had MANY MANY spills on my laminate floor. Several large spills...and many small ones. My laminate is great...not perfect, but great. It didn't completely ruin the floor, it didn't curl up and be toast...it just isn't quite perfect...and unless I point out where the small issues are...you wouldn't know. So..there may be hope for your floor!

is your stand open on the bottom or closed up?

because if your stand is wood and all closed up and water gets trapped under there, its toast for sure...... and starting to mold

you guys should see where I used to have my 72 bow on my oak floors...

It looks black now,...I assume due to the salt.

Sump is now plumbed ot the basement.

Tony, all you can do is dry it out the best you can.
A dehumidifier might help.

Just get some towels in there and hope for the best.

Actually, yes, solid bottom, and the tank, which sat there for years is gone, and the floor underneath is fine.
