not to understand the obsession with Karndean flooring

[Catsanddogs11]

It is just vinyl tiles isn’t it?

Orion? Option!

That is my fear definitely don’t want the posh Lino look!!

It’s shit flooring. It all got recalled in NZ. Not up to par for the changeable temps and lack of central heating

That is my fear definitely don’t want the posh Lino look!! Don't write it off. Some of it is stunning. Comes in all sorts of finishes an can look like real wood/ tile etc. I regularly have to kneel down and check! Posh lino is very hard wearing and high spec, honest!

I'm not entirely sure what you mean but it could be the varnish rather than the wood that gives a super glossy finish?

We have wood paneling and a matching bath panel that we made from the same pine panels glued onto a frame in our bathroom and used yacht varnish which gives a much shinier look than the floor varnish we used when we had wood floors.

It's virtually indestructible and easy to clean

This^. Worth every bloody penny!

and used yacht varnish
This would be lethal on a floor though? I don’t think it is yacht varnish.

It looks like this but is real wood?
