When we built we thought we wanted laminate in all the living areas and carpet in just the bedrooms, but because The Villages does not offer laminate we had wood grained vinyl installed in the foyer, kitchen, hall, laundry and guest bath. Carpet everywhere else. our only tile floor is the mater bath.
We thought we would tear out the vinyl ASAP, but we love it. It is easy under foot, doesn't show dirt, easy to clean and really much more attractive than we ever thought it could be.
When we get ready to make a change, we will look at the Luxury Vinyl. It is a beautiful, durable, comfortable product.
We have talked to several who put in laminate as we had planned, and have been disappointed. Foot prints show, it's loud, dust shows. So we are not in a rush to change anything. But when we do, we will look at vinyl first. We love our builder vinyl! What a surprise!!
