There are engineered hardwood products with the same SPC core as lvp. Geowood is one. Sylvan by Flooret has a high-density core and waterproof guarantee. Link Options. Link. You can find examples at HD and Lowes. The benefits include no repeat, not stripey in tone range, a thick hardwood wear layer instead of thin vinyl and a higher quality finish affect. I don't see a reason to choose vinyl.

Thanks Dan. I want to avoid plastic in the floors, but if I knew there was waterproof engineered wood, and it’s low VOC, I would have given it a consideration. I have already ordered the bedroom floors, just need to finalize the decision for living room-kitchen area. I definetely don’t want vynil, I am looking for high quality woodlike laminate that is scratch resistant and waterproof.
