Browse Forums Flooring & Floor Covering How well do they wear? 25Jun 16, 2011 4:08 pm I'd love to get vinyl planks as I want the look of real wood but something a bit warmer, softer and quieter underfoot that will work in wet areas as well, however after some research have discovered that they can discolour if placed in areas with direct sunlight. The main area I want to put them in gets loads of bright natural sunlight (lots of west/north facing windows and glass full length doors) so am a bit peeved. I have no intention of keeping the blinds down to prevent this from happening! Has anyone experienced this type of discolouration with vinyl planks?

Cheers[/quote] Hi - Sorry I have no idea of the cost - they have just been installed at our house and look great - but can't help with cost at all. Re: vinyl planks? 31Jun 19, 2011 9:25 pm Mook- I don't recall the cost (I have tendency to block details like that from my mind although I found it quite a reasonable price) The Brand is Karndean and the colour we got was Summer Oak from the Art Selections Range. If you google those details you should get the Karndean website where it will give you the size and thickness of the planks and they'll also send out free samples! Hope that helps!

Regard Lisa BayBuild Hi - we had vinyl planks in our old house (which is now our rental property and is nearly 5 years old and we haven't had a single problem with it) and we are also going to get it in our new house. I have no details for the flooring in the old place - we bought a house and land package and didn't get much info but have attached a couple of pics - couldn't find any real good ones of the flooring... http://i1109.photobucket.com/albums/h425/BayBuild/083.jpg http://i1109.photobucket.com/albums/h425/BayBuild/011-1.jpg Then in the new house we are getting the vinyl planks from Andersens and it is their own brand - Eziplanks and the one we are getting is EziPlank EZ52 - this hasn't gone in yet so don't have any pics to share.

They seem to be fine so far. Re: vinyl planks? 36Oct 25, 2014 10:35 pm I'm tossing up between Harvey Norman flooring (allure) and Godfrey Hurst vinyl planks. Both are 0.5mm wear layer. Allure claims Ceramic bead coating whilst Godfrey Hurst claims polyurethane with ceramic bead. Are these the same thing, or is there such a thing as just ceramic bead?
