Laminate, vinyl or wood?
Do you want to know which type of floor suits you? Several price-quality levels can be found in each of these floor categories. But what are the differences between these three types of floors? Vinyl and wooden floors generally provide a more pleasant contact sound than laminate floors. On the other hand, laminate is often cheaper and somewhat easier to maintain. Vinyl floors also have the great advantage that they feel warmer to the touch. That is nice for when you just get out of bed. The decors of both laminate and vinyl are printed so a repeat can be found within the planks every x number of planks. This will be less apparent in smaller rooms than in larger rooms. If you go for a vinyl or laminate floor with a less pronounced drawing, this will also be less noticeable. However, this will never happen with wooden floors. So if you want to go for a floor where every plank is unique, wood is the best choice.
