And that is the other problem. Sort of a pain to clean, you have to vacuum, and sweep, pick up dirt, and damp mop. We are busy people, and some weeks, don't vacuum/clean till Sunday . Sometimes, it looks like a barn floor by them, with foot prints, and dirt and dust collected in the corners. We use one of those small cordless vacuums to quick clean throughout the week
Im also not super pleased with how some of the laminate floors have held up . We bought decent Pergo stuff, and probably 6 years out now, some of the edges are starting to lift, and the finish is starting to dull some . I love vinyl planks for the rentals though. Nearly indestructible , and still looks great 3 years after install, even in the kitchen and entryways .
