We are having our black floors replaced, but I am having a hard time deciding what to replace it with. I have spent 3.5 years keeping this floor clean and I'm done! We need something that won't look dirty all the time (little kid and a dog) and will withstand wear and tear that looks great. Any advice?

I really like the look of the black, but the flooring is coming apart and I'm sick of cleaning it.

Thanks in advance!
