NOTE: this installs DIRECTLY over the concrete floor with NO underlayment (do NOT listen to the salesman) read the manufacturers instructions. I was able to install this without removing the existing molding with all of the flooring on alls sides going under the existing molding. Send me PM if you need details.
Also a BIG advantage of the DIY approach I did not have to empty any of the rooms, I was able to move furniture, remove the carpet and padding, glue, etc, and completely clean the floor and then install. I cut this material with abox cutter, but I understand they have a heavy duty cutter for it.
I highly recommend this product.

Everything stated in Villagtinker's reply is accurate, but, I'd like to add that the Vinyl Plank is more comfortable to walk on too.
