If you love the look of hardwood floors, but can't stand the high cost, consider vinyl plank flooring. We just installed it in one of our bedrooms, and will soon install it in two more plus our master bath. We took no classes, just followed the instructions, and absolutely love it! With the cost about 75% less than hardwood, and about 50% less than laminate, well, that makes us happy, too.

Kristin Topping on May 29, 2015I was very much impressed to see this great article. I likedyour tips that you have shared on vinyl plank flooring. It is becoming apopular option for residential spaces. Using vinyl plank is a creative wayto enjoy the look of softer woods like pine or maple without concern overdenting. It is also an innovative way to add decorative finishes,like whitewashed or weathered wood planks, to your home. It is acost-efficient practical choice for rental properties and the more active roomsin your home. Really, you have done an incredible job.

Carol on Aug 11, 2015I am a huge fan of my vinyl plank floors. I've had hardwoods before and the ease of care, durability and sound with the vinyl planks is far superior. And everyone loves it. I went with Karndean Hickory Peppercorn. Only drawback is this particular one is not recommended as a DIY.
