Anyone got Luxury Vinyl click flooring?

We're doing our kitchen and want to get LVT flooring. DH does not like the idea of putting a screed down to stick LVT to, he would prefer the click tiles instead. But I've been researching and asking in local carpet shops and everyone says the same, LVT click tiles fail after a while as the joins become weak and separate. I looked at B&Q online at the reviews of their click flooring and there are so many terrible reviews that say their floor failed after just a month of being put down!

Does anyone have any recommendations of LVT click that hasn't failed? Any brands to avoid like the plague?

Actually my dream floor would be reclaimed York stone flags but we don't have reclaimed flags money Sad

We put some down from Quickstep in one of our bathrooms a few years ago and it still looks like new. We're in the process of redoing the other bathroom and DH chose a different brand as it was marginally cheaper so I hope it wasn't a mistake! But the Quickstep stuff looks great and DH found it very simple to put down. I thought it was laminate until recently but DH put me straight when we were choosing floor for the other bathroom and he said that LVT was way easier to fit than laminate.

Sorry, pressed post too soon. I meant to say that we have got Karndean, laid on a screed in the kitchen. It cost a bloody fortune and hasn't lasted as well as our self laid Quickstep stuff, though to be fair the kitchen does get more traffic I suppose. But I've been disappointed in the Karndean I have to say.

Interested in this thread?

We use Quickstep at work - it's a bit pricey but good quality.

We’ve just purchased amtico to put in our kitchen. My father in law is a joiner and kitchen fitter. He’s spoken highly of it.

We’ve got Karndean in one room. Bastard to lay if you’re doing it yourself but it does wear well and is good quality.

Does anyone have Polyflor Colonia? That's what we're looking at now but they're not click tiles, they have to be put down on screed.
