I put this down in my house a few years ago and It has been great for the most part. It isn't as scratch resistant as they say so make sure to be careful when moving heavy things around on it. We've installed felt pads on all appliances and furniture to help mitigate that issue. We've also been through a water leak and a hurricane where I had to pull up large sections of the floor to replace the soaked underlayment. I would recommend a more foam based underlayment to go with your vapor barrier underneath. I switched to that before putting it back down after seeing how soaked the original stuff got. Having said that, the planks themselves are fully water resistant and that's been great in these instances. Also, trying to get transition pieces for the brand and color we chose was very difficult even 9 months after we bought it, so if you can get it all at once I recommend that (and always by a bit extra). Last thing on my mind is to do yourself a big favor if you're doing the install and pick up one of these in addition to the pull bar and rubber mallet - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000Z8GJMK?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_13 . This thing was instrumental in make the floor go together quickly. Answer from baronvonpoo on reddit.com

The truth about vinyl plank
I appreciate your post because we were debating using it in our sunroom. The primary reason was that it was thin and would help us avoid a height differential from the house, which is getting 5/8 engineered hardwood. Secondary rationale was that the room would get more animal, kids, sand traffic and might hold up better? Maybe it’s better to just accept the height transition. We’ll probably remove/renovate the sunroom in 10 years, so longevity isn’t a huge concern More on reddit.com

Why does Reddit hate laminate/vinyl flooring?
This is my personal experience Some newer laminates are water resistant or completely waterproof. I've submerged mine under water as a test for over 24 hours and it had no problem. They are so much more resilient to scratches than hard wood floor. My old hard wood floor would get scratches and dents just from you walking wrong on it. I've taken a knife to my laminate floor and not even a sign of scratch I had to rip out my hard wood floor because funnily enough, it got water damage and mold was growing underneath. So hard wood is not 100% waterproof either More on reddit.com

April 17, 2025 -

Really like the look of Tarkett luxury vinyl, probably going to grab a few samples to see how they look in my living room. I've done floor installations before including vinyl plank, so I'm thinking this shouldn't be hard to do myself, but was hoping someone's used the brand to know what I'm potentially signing up for?
