My house has tile through out living room and Kitchen. It loud and hard, drop anything heavy on it and it will crack. We put large rugs down to muffler the noise and easier walking. I which I had vinyl product down, Easy to clean softer than tile less noise reverberation IMO
Probably lots has his problem they just don’t know it?

We ripped up the LV flooring in our bathroom, not only was there moisture, mold was present. Just not a fan of LV.
I disagree agree about tile. True Our other 3 homes tile was indeed slink when wet, but grout aged but didn’t get that discolored look for 10 years.
However the hand scraped or flat finish newer tile when wet isn’t slippery.
Our tile guy said the newer grout has an additive, no longer attracts dirt or needs to be sealed. We have 3,000sf of tile, so far looks exactly the same as day one. I dripped fresh cooked beet juice on the tile and grout without knowing it. 4 hours later I just wet paper towel, cleaned it. No stains to the grout. Even I was amazed
