I have posted this numerous times before, but here goes - we used Supercore LVP.

www.weshipfloors.com

We're going on our 4th (or 5th?) year since it was installed. Still ZERO dents, scratches, dulling, fading and no "haze" from cleaning (as reported with other brands).

We used a wood look, but they also have stone look options.

Be sure to get one with the "5G" locking system, and a 30 to 40 mil top layer.

After searching every floor center in & around Minneapolis, the Supercore was a better quality product for about half the cost.

Does it really make sense to spend a lot of money on cabinets, countertops, and everything else (appliances?) and then go with a cheap, LVP floor? That SuperCore concrete-look tile is $4/sf but you can get real tile porcelain tile from, for example, Floor & Decor or Home Depot for around the same price or even less. Of course, installation would be in addition.

A SuperCore review even admits,

"Although SUPERCore’s realistic designs and durability make it an attractive option for homeowners, it may not have the same impact on potential buyers. Unlike hardwood or natural stone, SUPERCore doesn’t carry the same prestige, which could limit its appeal in the real estate market."

Fair warning - you will get a lot of LVT haters here. There are positive and negative aspects to every flooring choice and no single correct answer.

I picked LVT for my home for many reasons. I did not want carpet, wanted easy maintenance.

Ruled out hardwood based on my lifestyle - need something that won't get damaged by dogs and can handle some level of moisture (wet dogs, water dishes spilled, occasional accident or vomit). I didn't want tile - had tile in my last home and loved the ease of cleaning, but the floors were too hard and unforgiving and I had issues with my feet, legs, joints. LVT was the perfect compromise and fit my lifestyle and needs better than any other flooring.

When I selected my flooring I selected an in house brand from Flooring America. With some research I found that it was manufactured by Coretec and available under different names and pricing in each of the franchised flooring stores under the CCA Global Partners Cooperative, (Flooring America, Flooring Canada, Carpet One, Floor Trader and Pro Source). Not only was the pricing different at each Franchise, but also within a franchise (one Carpet One store was more or less expensive than another Carpet One store.).

At the time that I purchased my flooring (5 years ago), this flooring met the qualifications for being high quality LVP/LVT. I have had no issues with the flooring that I selected.

One of the other brands that I seriously considered and may be a better choice today was Karndean. They seem to have a better selection of non-wood look LVP/LVT. Coretec and others have reduced the number of non-wood look products to the point that it is getting tough to find the perfect look/color.

This is good reason behind all points cited above.

You will easily find LVP in million $ plus homes. We have friends with a 2 year old new build (probably $10 million+) - beautiful custom tile work in all the bathrooms, BUT LVP in all the open areas.

We have solid maple hardwood on our main floor, and put the LVP in our lower level during a remodel. We're on a lake, so it only made sense. IF I were building new (especially on a lake), for all the reasons @Jennifer Hogan mentioned - I would use it everywhere.

Having already done the leg work - I would use Supercore again.

(I really liked one of the Karndean LVP in maple, but at the time, it was half the quality & twice the price.)

Without seeing any of the finishes, this is all a shot in the dark. A slate look LVT that doesn't have a lot of variation could possibly work with the counters, cherry floors and walnut but it's hard to say.

Keep in mind that a lot of these opinions about the "perfect" flooring are regional. Where I live, you basically have to beg the people in the flooring store to show you something other than LVP. Everyone buys it, and nobody bats an eyelash about it.

I'm suggesting a light European Oak in a herringbone pattern will contrast enough from the Brazilian Cheery.

From Monarch Plank,

Next option is a 24x48 large format porcelain tile in a matte limestone affect.
