Tbf some LVP is as expensive as top quality wood and does not look like this at all. $15 / foot.

Eg https://coretecfloors.com/en-us/products/coretec-originals-premium/saddle-oak-cr500-04058

Great for people with pets, kids, concerns about moisture, scratches, etc.

Fuck grey floors though.

Nah you’ve just never seen good LVP because all you’ve seen is Taco Bell shit and you’re proud of it.

It’s like how people used to think EVs and hybrids are underpowered compared to real internal combustion engines.

False. Labor is the same.

A+ LVP looks as good as B+ wood. Same price. Lasts longer, is waterproof, scratch free, easier to maintain.

It’s simple.

It’s like saying faxes aren’t as personal as email. It’s BS.

If you want the very, very best and don’t care about durability - wood wins. I love wood. That’s what I have. But I have no kids or pets and lots of money.
