I always wondered why you got a hollow foot step with a crunchy sound in some areas.

I kinda like the appearance of our rolled vinyl but as far as durability or installation....not so much. For some reason I couldn't post a picture but it's fragile and pulling up in places. I'm not particularly upset, some of the stuff going into these houses is pretty cheap and a replacement with something nice is in the budget for someday.
