We just finished a whole home remodel and put Karndean luxury vinyl plank in the Van Gogh Honey Oak finish everywhere except the bathrooms. It was one of the best decisions we made in the whole process! It looks fabulous, is easy to keep clean, is incredibly durable and the texture feels fine underfoot. We even put it on the stairway. We get lots of compliments on it, and love it so much we're not even going to bother with area rugs. We especially love the color/pattern we chose, since it matches everything. I'm attaching two photos to show you what it looks like. Also, our kitchen is super-nice, and the Karndean fits right in.
