I hate wood floors and any sort of ceramic tile and I go with carpet everywhere I can including the kitchen, bathroom and laundry room. It can be cleaned whenever necessary and I always have warm feet.

I'm very opposite. I hate most carpet and go with tile and wood anywhere I can :P (I can appreciate a good carpet in bedrooms if that's your thing though)
To each their own, but wood and tile are so much easier to maintain and keep clean without even getting into aesthetics. I wear socks anyway but I don't find wood floors to be uncomfortably cold at all. Tile I can understand, but if it's really an issue I would just put in underfloor heating.
Check out cork floors. I had them in my condo and they are great...softer than wood, quieter, virtually seamless, and really durable. They have a pretty wide range of colors so you could do something lighter or darker than the wood for contrast.
Yep, the commercial grade vinyl is a too quality product that is EXTEREMELY durable, suitable for any kind of wet area, unique range of colors / patterns. It is not a bargain priced product but is a good value for a versatile material.

Carpet is unsanitary, holds odors and makes a home look cheap compared to a home with wood floors. You can get heated floors which is not really as expensive as you would think.
But here in Brooklyn it ain't called linoleum, .....it is called "earl cloth".......OMG, I m really showing my age.
But, laminate in a kitchen works nicely. My sister just got laminate in a tiled effect, and she said she dropped a glass on it, and it actually bounced.......she now loooooooooooves laminate and is not sorry she didn't get ceramic tile.
I think the reason was also the floors weren't perfectly level or something to that effect so the tiles would have cracked right away....

Won't "cleaned whenever necessary" result in...
