What do you all think the best flooring to put down in a kitchen is. Family consists of 2 lads and a dog. At the moment we have 8"x4" tiles down.These have done us well for 15 years but time for a change. We have been looking at Karndean. Actually how good is this? Wife not too keen on laminate flooring. Other possibilities , re-tile , lino ( or similar ) Any ideas. Cheers

I can recommend Karndean. We have had our kitchen floor in for five years now and it looks as good as new.
Have you had to do a lot of maintenance on the floor. i have seen on their website that every 6 months you have to go over it with a cleaning solution to get all the tiny scratches out. It also mentions that you put this "stuff" on it and leave it for 6 hours to go off.Have you done anything like this. If so how often and does yours as you say really looka s good as new?
No maintenance except for the very occasional mopping (water with a tiny amount of washing up liquid) and yes, it does look every bit as good as it was on the day it was laid.

Ditto. We've had Karndean in the kitchen for 12 months now. It still looks perfect, and gets a load of abuse. I have not bothered putting the 6-month protextor down other than when the floor was first laid. I suspect it's a money-spinning trick really.
