i like your final choice having to make the faster decision. When we bught this retirement home it had worn pergo or something like that. the very first vinyl floors were more like a magazine picture on small planks. the edges were curled and would cut your bare feet. The walking paths were gray. We also bought this place cash with a short term loan for a few months then fixed and sold the other home. We had profit inthe one we sold so we could buy flooring right away. We chose home depot life proof in trail oak. I tried to gouge, cut, destry the sample. Poured hot coffee on it and left it for days in that in the sun. Not phased. The trail oak is not shiny and is a medium color. The high 8 trussed roof here is pine, not real yellow but not real light either. We also have oak furniture and a few other things in medium color ranges so it goes well with others. It goes with the house built kind of lodge ranch style. as is the entire town. But its an ecclectic mix, artist built home. All the cabinets are more danish modern. They and all the trims are wood, like mission style. but its ok contrast with the warm floors. My parnter and nephew put it in in about 2 and a half days. You start at a corner and cut varous lengths at half and thirds etc. and just dont look to much at the designs so you dont make it look planned. another discussion came up just today about flooring on another video. some didnt know you leave the gap at the walls for movement then hide iwwht the moulding. We left our original moulding as we used the old floor for a base. then added a small strip to cover. A person said they had to pull up their enitre floor when they had not left the gaps at the wall. for movement, expansion in warmer weather etc. just info for anyone.

I noticed the floor you chose was 4mm. That is REALLY thin. I’m afraid it’s going to look cheap and have that clackity-clack of cheap flooring. I would 100% wait for the floor I wanted, but that’s just me. I’d rather do without than settle. Lol I’m weird.

I love the Flooret flooring. I really want to remove my living room carpet and put down vinyl plank flooring but I want a very durable flooring for my busy family and pets. I want a flooring with a 40mil/ 1 mm wear layer and that's what Flooret has. Thank you for sharing this! Do you have any idea how long it takes for the order to arrive? I noticed a lot of the flooring is out of stock.

Vinyl flooring has come a LONG way from yrs ago. My daughter and son in law just put vinyl plank flooring in their bathroom from Costco. It's beautiful and perfect for a bathroom, totally waterproof. I would be wary of Lumber Liquidators. They had class action lawsuits a few yrs back from their vinyl plank flooring emitting large amounts of formaldehyde, it was a dangerous level. I'm so happy you're sharing you're renovations in your new home with us!

If I had to sleep on the floor for months I would go with Flooret for sure!!

I would wait!! I know it’s not the best idea but I would for sure wait

Oh the decisions, decisions, happy new house. Your right, that flooret flooring is gorgeous, but again most people aren't about the flooring to that level. I do like the wall colour behind you though.

I hope y'all get settled in soon!! Can't wait to see how you transform your new house!!!

Love you Julie! So happy to follow along and see your updates💕💕

Fun! Things are coming along nicely! I am looking forward to seeing some decorating! 👍🏻❤️

I am so excited to see the whole house finished!❤️

In my home We tiled all the same earth tone tile throughout kinda like Olive Garden style lol.,but changed pattern in the rooms by turning directions bordering, and different sizes combinations. My husband did an amazing job. I love the boards you picked ,you have a good eye and great taste.

Seriously you make my week Julie and I’m so excited about this and I love the flooring choice I think that’s going to look amazing! You bring up so many good points because we can get anxious and ahead of ourselves sometimes with home renovations and being able to roll with the punches is part of the deal. ❤️😍❤️ love you!

Such good info and insights on flooring. We are doing this soon and appreciate the Flooret link and tips. Love seeing and hearing the progress. Keep em coming!

The flooring you'd like is beautiful. I don't know if I could put in the other one but understand why you went with that. Hope it works for you. Can't wait to see your house all finished!

Great info! We have used that kind of flooring in our basement craft room my husband made for me in Michigan, and in our whole house in Florida, except for the same tiled floor you have in our bathrooms. Loved both of them. So practical and nice looking.

Your house is so pretty. Cant wait to see how you transform it into your style.

Can't wait to see the floor when finished

Great choice! Neutral color that goes well with everything!

I love when the flooring is all the same!! But yes keep the tile. Can’t wait to see how it all turns out.

Great info... we plan on replacing our carpet soon... I never thought of getting a sample and setting it down to look at it at different times of the day and seeing how it goes with my decor... thanks for the great tips... I think the flooring you picked will look great...

Julie, I too am passionate about luxury vinyl!! My brother is a contractor, and he's using this stuff in everything from cottages to million dollar homes. I was so down on my hardwood. It was scratched, dull, faded, so I literally covered it with luxury vinyl. I kept the ceramic tile in my kitchen and laundry room, because it has held up nicely, but I can't tell you how much I love my vinyl! The color you picked is lovely.

Wow, I can't believe the difference in the thickness of the flooring from Flooret! I'm definitely gonna check them out! Thanks for sharing all the awesome info! Good luck on your new flooring installation, I hope yall get settled in soon! Even though you couldn't get the flooring you really wanted, you did make a good choice in getting what was readily available, the color you chose is beautiful! Have a great weekend and July 4th holiday with your family!

Perfect timing Julie...I’m looking for LVP, and didn’t know where to start!

Awesome, they have many more colors, I just stuck with the traditional ones 👍

you are so positive. If I couldn't get what I really wanted for my house, I'd probably be bawling and having a fit, but you are accepting what you have to work with. Your're so awesome. Like other commenters, I think I'd wait for it. What you have is not that bad. It is inconvenient, but worth it maybe??

I know that had to be so hard to pass up, but I totally would’ve made the same decision in your place! I love the flooring you choose I think it will be beautiful. I can’t wait to see. And this was such a useful video for me. We will be changing all our flooring soon. So this was very informative👍🏻♥️

Our LVP was just installed this week and I love it! No thresholds is the best!

I like the one called Sutton Julie. I think you will like the lighter color. I amazed by your tenacity during school vacation. I salute you.!

It’s going to be soooo weird to see something done in your home that you are not doing. I love the color choice for your flooring. As you held them up, I immediately chose the one you chose mainly because of the white in it. I have decorated for years and have found the lighter the color, the better the overall look. Looking forward to seeing it completed. Love ya! 🥰

Look forward to the transformations!

The one you are going with reminds me of what I have in my house.

I understand about living in chaos in a new home and wanting to get things done ASAP, especially with 4 kids. I like the flooring you chose. If you don't plan on living there long term then I would think that's find and it's a pretty floor. We just bought a fully remodeled home and it has all wood plank tile throughout the whole house and I love it. Sweep and mop and it looks cohesive. Either way, remodeling is so fun and exciting, can't wait to see what you do next.

The boys closets look great already!

We put in vinyl plank flooring a few years ago. I hate it! It scratches and just has me scared whenever I need to move furniture or someone accidentally moves a couch etc, and yes we have pads under every stinkin' piece of furniture, so they slide all over. I also desperately miss carpets in my bedrooms. Plank flooring is nasty for kids rooms. Carpet is so much more cozy for playing on the floor.

Oh Goodie, another video!!

I've been wanting that same flooring forever I used to work at Lowe's so I used to look at it everyday.

I just got the nakan! For my whole house besides the bedrooms. I’m so excited!!!!

Great advice sweetheart thank you … we are in need of flooring in our hall … I’m in uk it’s a nightmare deciding 😖 as you say big layout .. I shall get some samples and put in hallway with my bits to see which way to go x. Hope the floor laying goes smoothly ….. take care xxx♥️

I like the Sutton. Beautiful

Oh if you could only wait. Man I really like the Flooret so much more.

Julie, I would have made the same flooring choice you did. Your not planning on living there forever and even tho it isn't your first choice and you basically settled for liquidators you can get moved in, get things back to a little bit of normalcy and move on. I would have done the same. We are putting flooring down in September. Not what we love but something down to make this house more saleable. Our plan is to put our house on the market Spring 2022. Then in the new place we purchase, we can get the flooring we really want, which will be the vinyl planking. Great choice.

Wow, don't you hate it when that happens! Good luck in getting this house the way you want it.

First time I saw vinyl planks was about 16 yrs ago, and I loved the idea and wanted an excuse to use he flooring.

We're in the middle of moving as well. I'll say a prayer for you, and hopefully you can say a prayer for us! TFS Happy 4th

Great tips.

Flooring choices are so hard, but looks like you made a good one!

Thanks for this timely video! Just ordered 4 samples from Flooret. Their products look so much better for foot traffic too. I need to find out how you can clean them. Wouldn’t want to use a cleaner that would ruin them. 😆

I am glad you didn't choose dark flooring. I shows every little speck.

Loved the colour of the smaller pieces better.

Such a bummer that you can't get the one that you really want. Totally agree that you just need to move along and get settled. I like the one you choose.

If you have time, check out the flooring at Sam's! We did my last house from there and it was so pretty, thick with its own pad, and you just go and get the amount you need! (just realized it's not vinyl, but they may have vinyl now!)

I getting ready to change out my flooring downstairs to vinyl and both bathrooms upstairs. Like you, I agree it looks better when the flooring is the same throughout. I’m really struggling with what color to choose. Those samples they gave you are too small to really tell what it will look like in a large space. Excited too see how it turns out.

Julie, as an interior designer I love mixing wood tones in flooring! I think it gives a lot more movement and personality to what is otherwise a boring surface. I would have combined the 3 sample tones you chose as your favorites and mixed them up throughout your house!! I know that look isn’t for everyone but, hey…my interiors are very unique 😉 Love your videos ❤️

I love it

Good advice

Julie, be careful with lumber liquidators. I put down floor from them & had trouble with it. Maybe it was the one I got. Later on got a settlement from them because others got same settlement. Class settlement. Not but little money. Under 100.00

Well four years ago I rushed on getting ceramic floor in my home and now I regret it! Time passes so fast that everything can wait when you have an important decision to make. Now I’m thinking in getting this floor 😜

Why do you have to Keep Moving ? Hubbie's Work ?

I just finished 600 square feet of luxury vinyl planks in my kitchen and dining room. It was a job but it was worth it!

Awe man, this dang pandemic has messed up so much stuff. My son is a general contractor/roofer and the shortages of everything has definitely caused him some problems. I hate that you're having to compromise on what you really want, but I sure do understand it. With your babies being at an age to still be a handful, I know you want to just get it done and get back to some normalcy. If anyone can make the cheaper flooring look great, it is you! Best of luck!

I’m surprised lumber liquidator did not have a better option for you. When I remodeled my duplex, ( after removing all the thresholds!) I purchased from lumber liquidators a beautiful quality floor that was the same quality as the Flooret brand. But the good news is that it is my understanding that with the underlayment the flooring that you are purchasing iwill still hold up very well. But I am with you vinyl plank is the Way to go! I love mine.

I understand if you can’t wait but if possible I would.

I did research too and I feel BJS wholesale has some great flooring 14mm and it is in stock. They had tons of boxes in all colors last time I went. I know Memphis has a BJs ! Or Sam’s club. Thank you for sharing your flooring choices with us but Please reconsider your flooring choice. You don’t want to go with less than 12 mm. It is going to squeak and not lay nice.

We live in a rancher in California with our living and family rooms being a small single step down slab floors, with the rest being a raised foundation. We hope to renovate in the near future…being to consider the thought of one flooring throughout. Thank you for the info on Flooret. Curious what brand/product you used in your Louisiana home that you enjoyed so much?

Nice video, i was sad not to see a Tilden sample.

Hi Julie, great advice, I wish you could get the flooring you want, but either way you are going to make it fabulous. You need to think about how long you all think you will live in the house? Will you have to redo the floors again because of quality before you can sell. Just a thought. Good luck!!!

Wow I would wait for the good stuff life is too short to make rash decisions!! I could live on concrete if I needed to for a month or so!!!

I have vinyl plank flooring throughout my house. One thing that really made a difference to me when I was making my selection, was how close to wood planks did it really look once layed? The cheaper flooring doesn't look like real planks. It looks smooth. Lumber Liquidators planks had that smooth look. I didn't like it. I bought a better quality vinyl plank that more imitates real wood.
