Default Wood floors - Laminate or Engineered?

Hi everyone

We are replacing the old horrible carpets in two rooms, and have decided on
a wooden floor for both rooms.

Now we are trying to decide between laminate flooring (looking at Witex
Castila range) and engineered wood flooring (such as Kahrs Linnea range).

We have ruled out solid wood floors because we have been told they aren't as
hard wearing as the above two types, and can be easily ruined.

I quite like the engineered wood, as it's actually real wood rather than
fake wood........

I think part of the problem is that there is simply too much choice out
there. Our floors are just floorboards, with plywood over the top. I'm
assuming I can just underlay straight over the ply and then get laying......

Anyone got any more experience with either of these types of floors?
