We are going to replace our kitchen cabinets

floor (~170 sq. ft.) at the same time.

The cabinet & flooring wants to put a laminate
over the existing linoleum. What problems I
encounter if I pulled up the linoleum to lay
new linoleum?

The biggest problem is removing the old. It could be a bitch.

If the existing floor is smooth and flat, why not just cover the existing
floor with new vinyl flooring?
