Tom, I recently came across “Vinyl Planking” at local home improvement center. It seems to have several benefits, including ease of installation and cleaning, over other “wood floor” looking products.
We are considering replacing the carpet in a rental home we have with this product? Do you have any experience or thoughts on this product?

Tom: It depends on the quality. Vinyl floors are great. They do clean up easy and I guess ease of installation if you are comfortable doing it, is fine. I don’t have a problem with it at all. As far as the wood planking goes, I’ve had some in my own home. It wasn’t cheap, it was commercial grade. I’m not sure what the grade of Vinyl she is getting, so make sure it will wear well because with a rental home, you know they’re not going to take real good care of it.
