The new vinyl plank is very different than the old vinyl tiles. The good stuff is beautiful. It is very difficult to tell that it is not wood unless you get down on your hands and knees. It's more moisture resistant than either wood or laminate which makes it great for people with pets. I have a good friend who works for Jung Tile (pronounced young) and she sells all kinds of flooring. She strongly recommended the vinyl plank. If you go to a good flooring store, they have a lot more to choose from than Home Depot, you may want to check and compare quality and pricing. HD may have what you will end up wanting, but a flooring store should have more to choose from and sometimes their pricing is comparable, especially if they know you are shopping around. Please keep us posted!!

That sounds good, Marilyn. I like vinyl flooring...it looks so realistic these days. I would like to replace my kitchen and long hall with fake slate.

Just curious....is the vinyl in plank pieces or just looks like it? What if someone was to spill or a dog was to pee on it? Wouldn't it go between the planks?

Mine is in planks, I think most are. I don't think anything goes in to the cracks

What keeps it from going in between?

They are waterproof Janet. I think because they stick together underneath the wood looking part.

Perfect in high moisture areas basements, kitchens, and bathrooms. Warm comfort and quiet under foot. Install an entire floor cleanly, easily in just a few hours. 25 year residential warranty.
