Kitchen diner flooring recommendations

[Willwemove]

Hello. What type of flooring would you recommend for good durability and price? I’ve heard good things about Karndean and luxury vinyl. Any bad experiences with laminate/karndean/luxury vinyl etc.? I’d quite like to have the same flooring in the kitchen and bathroom.

I’ve attached an image of the kind of style I like.

Thanks!

We are going for something like that. I'm trying to decide between a plank look or a tile or pattern look. For the whole of downstairs

Karndean planks here throughout downstairs and in my studio which gets heavy usage. Absolutely indestructible, although I have small pieces of carpet to protect against cello spikes.

@FourChimneys thanks for the info! Sounds like it’s a good option.

Does underfloor heating work well with LVT? My builder seems to think not is trying to steer us towards tiles but I hate how they are cold and hard underfoot (north facing kitchen) and don’t want to have the heating in spring, for example, just to make the floor warm
