I used it in my kitchen and it looks great. It's a forgiving floor, which means you don't have to have your existing floor be exactly flat or install new sub flooring or psread goo to level your old floor. It's a floating floor -- no glue, no mess. And it's easy to do. Just get yourself a good utility knife or a new blade in your utility knife.
and -- at least when we bought ours -- it had a 25 year guarantee.... can't beat that.
Is that the wood looking flooring that is made from old tries? if so my wifes cousin put it in like 5 years ago in her kitchen.They love it. I was imporessed with now easy on feet it is and quite compared to wooden floors in rest of house.They just bopught a new home and installing it everywhere she says its so easy to keepup with her having pets;quiet ;easy cleanup and easy to install she said since they installed it themselfs.
I don't know what it's made from Tex -- but I put it in myself... with no help from hubby. Went pretty quick, too. Back when I bought it, it wasn't nearly as easy to cut as it looks now. There was a small amount of cussing from cutting.
I wouldn't go peel and stick vinyl tile. Seems like everyone I've known has had issues with them long term. If cost was an issue, but you still had some wiggle room in the budget, I'd go laminate.
Tile can be classy and cheap... if you do your own installation. I put about 800 sq feet in my previous house for about 750 bucks a few years ago. Look for tile sales; you can often get fairly decent 1' X 1' tiles for well under a buck a tile. An added benefit is you won't need cement board if you are installing tile on cement.

Interesting idea. What is the difference between this and Pergo/engineered wood planks that "click" and float without glue or nails?
