Laminate can be removed, but it may not be necessary. If it's in good shape, with no bubbles, you should be able to paint right over it.
If you paint over it get a primer that is recommended to be used over laminate. IKEA recommends a brand for their furniture that begins with a Z. Something like Zinzer. Sometimes when you try to pull off laminate the partical board underneath comes off to. So be careful if you do that.
I have painted over laminate with good results.- with both the Z primer and without. For a piece of furniture that will heavy use like bedroom, I would recommend the primer. Also, General Finishes makes a milk paint that they recommend for laminate. I had an old china cabinet that was nice wood but had an ugly, faded laminated top. I painted the wood and used a General Finishes gel stain on the top (Java- which turned out dark espresso) with really good results. It's been less than a year, but I've had no chipping or cracking--- and NO one believes that it's anything other than a beautiful piece of wood. HOWEVER, General Finishes does not recommend this use for their gel stain. Nevertheless, I did it and am amazed with how good it looks! Good luck!
