Glenda Miller you will need to get samples of options that you like from both kinds of flooring and compare them. Keep in mind Engineered Plank does not mean its also prefinished. It could also be unfinished and then installed and finished on site. Just make sure you go with a quality product that will let you refinish them when you decide to. Thats one of the big advantages of a high quality planks over Vinyl.

“Look as good” is completely subjective. Go check out some samples. The only opinion here that matters, is yours. If you are someone that does not ever care to undergo a refinishing process (I am one of those) then you don’t need to be concerned with that part of it. Most decent engineered wood floors are going to give you 15-20 years minimum anyway. A high end vinyl ( CoreTec , Mannington) will certainly last that long.

Hello Glenda! Vinyl flooring is an image that is printed onto a plank of some sorts. Whereas engineered wood flooring is real wood laminated onto a backer. You maybe able to find a good vinyl that looks realistic but it will not feel the same as the engineered wood.

Best of luck with you new home!

A good looking vinyl plank or tile that mimics wood will fool anyone's eye who doesn't know the difference.

Last year when I was house hunting I can't tell you how many homes I walked into that advertised with wood floors...only for me to inform the listing agents that the floor was actually vinyl plank. I would claim false advertisement and their answer 99% of the time was, "Well I thought it was wood..." --Yes, a lot of newer products hitting the market now are very realistic.
