Looking at my floors where it meets the bedrooms I wouldn't say it's to noticeable. Are the areas where the 2 types meet large openings or just normal door ways ? Agree to care as though real wood. No dragging of furniture around. Teaching the kids to treat it with care etc too Hi Renski Have you got the Looselay or the thinner Karndean? I was worried I would get a noticeable dip?!! The two doors leading into the Theatre are normal single doors, but the one leading into hubby's study is a double door .... I thought Karndean wouldn't scratch as easily as wood or be as "finicky" .. if you know what I mean ... and that I wouldn't have to worry about water as much (like in the kitchen) ... but thanks for the advice.

This floor is certainly not foolproof. If you're not careful it will scratch and look sad. We just had our vinyl planks stripped and resealed (kind of like timber but not haha) and it made no difference to the visibility of the scratches at all Re: LOOSE LAY KARNDEAN - update from old thread 159Jun 04, 2014 10:10 pm ment they are better imo because you don't have to sand them back like solid timber.sanding is a pain with dust even with a bag on sander ,then you need to stay off floor when you reseal.SB did Karndean not inform you about dogs (re scratches)l was told treat it like solid timber.

I have a cat, but am hoping to get a dog in the future (hubby will have a raised eyebrow when he reads this ) - We are getting Country Oak, so hopefully scratches and marks won't be as visible because the floor is not too dark ... A Sabco spin mop, minimal moisture, not very regularly.
