We have had BR-111 Brazilian Teak for several years. It has a good bit of variation, probably more than my DH wanted but I actually enjoy it. We tried to find something that would work with our existing den paneling. The floor has brown, gold and red in it but it is not a red floor like Brazilian Cherry. The floor has held up very well but it is possible to scratch it. I did it with a staple in the bottom of a chair leg. :( We will probably be installing it in the rest of the main floor of our house, including the kitchen. We are in the process of updating our kitchen and we felt that a painted cabinet would look better with this floor because it is fairly dark and because of the variation. I think my interior designer would have preferred that I use a distressed floor with a more uniform color that would not show anything. I decided not to worry too much about the floor and just enjoy it. It is 3/4" Brazilian Teak after all. I wish it were cheaper!!! I hope the photo link works. Please forgive the worn out furniture and the bits of popcorn. Good luck with your decision. http://www.flickr.com/photos/34162691@N03/

Cherry and cherry are lovely. Are you going to have different stains? Maybe these ideas can help.... Wood cabs and wood floors .... more ideas. Walnut floors ( not to tempt you but to show you that the cheaper cherry or even oak can be just as pretty)

I love the color on the smallest door because it gives some contrast between the floor and cabs, and will also provide a bridge between dark floor and light trim so THAT contrast will not seem so stark. BTW, I love the concept of woods not all being match-y match-y but instead complementing each other and provide tone and depth. Can't wait to see it when it is all done!

Here are photos of our mostly finished kitchen. Still a few things yet to be done. The terrazzo floors and walnut cabinets are gorgeous together. Our cabinet maker is a local guy (https://trickettwoodwork.com) and he did an excellent job with everything. We are loving our new space!
