why would you advise agains wood floors in kitchen. im also considering
ceramic tile, which might be better.

dishwasher floods. icemaker sink floods. lots of chances of water damage.


True, but this is true no matter which surface you choose. Even tile is
not going to withstand this if the subfloor is wooden since grout will
allow water through it - or, rather, if you mop it up then it doesn't
matter
if it is wood, tile, or whatever.

true. thinking mostly of here, where 99%+ are 1 level concrete slabs.

my last house i tiled and replaced the baseboards with tile. i could pretty
much hose it out instead of vacuuming.
