Put the snap together vinyl plank wood looking stuff 4 years ago. Installer floor guy said the snap together stuff was what they were using now in high traffic areas like Walmart and restaurants. Said the snap together planks took water without problems. Ripped up horrible looking linoleum tile that was scratched up and peeling. Planking is much thicker. Put some kind of glue on the backs as he put it down. Have slab floors. Put in kitchen, dining, family, hall and utility rooms.


Mom almost ducked out of the picture, LOL

Picked it because of the durability. Have a big dog and take care of my elderly Mother with walker/wheelchair/spills. Has handled the kitchen and other spills well. Especially the wetness around the dog's water bowl. Dog traffic with everything they drag in and gets ground into the floors between cleanings does not effect it. No sun. Has held up better than the hardwood my brother put in his house four years before I did mine. They do not have pets and have refinished theirs already and have throw rug paths everywhere.

After seeing my floors a couple of friends have done theirs as well.
