So sorry for my messy kitchen first of all! Couldn't be bothered to tidy

Anyway it's between these two for my new karndean floor. Can I ask which you prefer and why? And if neither then please say

We currently have pale grey large tiles which we don't like

Thanks

2nd one - i think the first one is horrible!

PintOfPrawns · 10/01/2021 18:02

3rd. Make the whole space look brighter and bigger.

3rd one as it's a lovely colour and not too dark

SlopesOff · 10/01/2021 18:13

Neither, I really, really dislike dark flooring.

OP, I love a dark floor. I had vinyl planks (expensive ones but not karndean) in previous house and then had far laminate. Both cost a bomb and I adored them.

But.
They were a nightmare in front of a window. The light showed up all the dust and they always seemed dusty! I agree with you that darker looks classier (imo) and has more depth. But, when I can afford to do my current house (which also has dark laminate but v old and cheap) I'll be going lighter. Not blonde, but caramel kind of colour. Or is that highlights Grin.

2nd. I don’t like the patchiness of the first. I think the second is more neutral. I think you could regret the first as it’s more busy, but the second would fit with any decor.

user1471530109 · 10/01/2021 18:14

Dark not far laminate.

user1471530109 · 10/01/2021 18:16

And can't see no 3, but I much prefer no. 2. I regretted a similar one to 1. It didn't look patchy on the samples because it wasn't a big enough sample to show it iyswim.

I prefer the second one. Something weird about the first one.

Mylittlepony374 · 10/01/2021 18:16

100% the first

whattodo2019 · 10/01/2021 18:17

second one.

Roselilly36 · 10/01/2021 18:18

Too dark for me to.

Iminaglasscaseofemotion · 10/01/2021 18:18

I can't see pic 3!

Fi57 · 10/01/2021 18:21

Neither I think they are both to dark

ElfIsAnAss · 10/01/2021 18:31

First one looks warmer.

ElfIsAnAss · 10/01/2021 18:32

Changed my mind now I've seen the third one! Prefer that one now!

Skyliner001 · 10/01/2021 18:34

2

GinnieHempstock · 10/01/2021 18:41

I’ve had to go onto the app to see the third photo and I’m glad I did.
The third is by far the best.

Hawkins001 · 10/01/2021 18:41

The second one as it has more comfortable contrast

MusicWithRocksIn1t · 10/01/2021 18:42

I like the first one. It looks warmer

2018SoFarSoGreat · 10/01/2021 18:45

Third! Not the first.

saraclara · 10/01/2021 18:56

Third one without a doubt.
1 is too patchy, 2 is too cold looking 3 is warm and looks real.

PainterInPeril · 10/01/2021 18:59

I love the first one as it's more exciting. It reminds me a little bit of tortoiseshell. The others are very boring in my opinion. An eye-catching floor can bring the whole room together. Smile

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 10/01/2021 18:59

3rd definitely.
