laminate/wood veneer or solid oak

[moe100]

Chaps,
time to choose a floor covering for the kitchen diner, living room. Now all these are now joined together and a single floor covering will look very nice but because of the kitchen, i'm not sure of the suitability. Also I have been told any real wood flooring will scratch and dent very easily in the living room

Can someone give advice through knowledge or experiance ?

Depending on budget, id go with a good quality Laminate flooring. Preferably one that clicks and wax seals together.... No Glueing...

We had one fitted through our living room / Hallway 2 years ago....
No problems at all..

Its scratch proof and totaly water resistant.... I even think we got something like a ten year guarantee with it..... against any defects...

Id defo choose this method again...
