AW: New vinyl wood plank flooring PIP

My home makeover has really been dragging along and I needed some gratification to keep me motivated. So I decided to go ahead and start laying the vinyl wood plank flooring that's been sitting in my dining room for over a month now.

It is super inexpensive stuff from lumber liquidators and I could not be happier. Installation was easy, only requiring a tape measure, straight edge, marker and regular scissors. I wish the color was a teeny bit lighter, but overall it has the rustic look I wanted. I installed over our existing wood laminate which was in good shape, I just didn't care for the color and style. I think this vinyl wood plank looks just as good as laminate and many of the engineered I've seen. Here's the before:

Re: AW: New vinyl wood plank flooring PIP

  • It looks really nice.  I think my parents have the exact same color in their basement.  They installed it after the basement flooded.  I thought it was a great choice.
  • Looks great! I'm always surprised at how good the peel-and-stick "wood" looks.  Does it feel like wood underfoot?  Or is it rubbery?

    And omg, I love your corgie!  :)  DH keeps bugging me to get one.

  • Looks great. We've been thinking about it for our upstairs bathrooms. The vinyl in there is horrible looking. I'd also love to cover up the laminate on our main floor but I don't think that's in the budget this year.
