Has anyone found a luxury vinyl tile that doesn’t look fake?

I love the look of a distressed floor but need it to be kid/dog proof, low maintenance, and waterproof for a cottage. But I’m having a hard time finding a LTV that looks and feels real. I don’t want to use engineered hardwood but might need to to get the look I want... However my Mr. doesn’t want to break the bank. Any suggestions of brand or colors? Does anyone have one they love and would recommend? A small sample just isn’t cutting it. 😂

    They have vinyl planking that looks just like wood.

    This blogger provides a 2-year post-installation review. So important to provide a follow up! I think she has pets, too. I have also used this website for flooring tips and reviews. All of the choices these days are great for different budgets, but it can be overwhelming!

    Check out Life Proof flooring found at Home Depot. My son and I have both used in in our homes. It looks remarkably like wood and comes in many options. It is easy to install, wears well, washes well. Reasonably priced.

  • Look at it from farther away. We're never 12" from our floor. It should read as real from farther away.
