I prefer vinyl floors to tile since they are softer, quieter and much easier
to clean than tile (grout) , hardwood (delicate), or carpet (easy to stain
and discolor).

Some have that using linoluem anywhere besides kitchen, laundryroom and
bathrooms will hurt resale value.
I have seen vinyl floors that looked very upscale and stylish

see why it would be such a problem.

What do you think of vinyl flooring throughout an entire house except maybe
the bedrooms?
