Press and Go vinyl tile

Thanks for all the posts. The product I am considering is not glued down, it just clicks together like laminate flooring but has the advantage of being 100% waterproof so will not suffer like wood laminate in damp conditions.

I have the Mannington Adura planked wood style vinyl in my office over concrete and it has been wonderful. It is the click together tongue & groove style, full floating and totally waterproof. With the traffic it gets it still looks like new after 5 years. The floor even survived a burst water heater. I wouldn't hesitate to put it in an RV.

That's the type I would use, ie, the snap together type. Even allure makes that type as well as the the glue edge type. The snap and lock laminate in any brand should work fine IMO.

better off with sheet vinyl like armstrong. Problem with allure and other plank style or vinyl squares is the temp differences between seasons makes them peel up as they are designed for home use only. You will start to see seams. Plus if you look at the warranty on these products they will specifically not warranty rv or mobile installations. I've actually installed both allure and sheet vinyl. Sheet is more work but when laid down properly is very durable, and if you are good enough you can get by without even using quarter round molding. Only thing I ever used is an aluminum transition strip between rooms.

I have been told by many folks who should know that even if you use self adhesive glue to use the glue recommended by the tile manufacturer and glue it down. That is exactly what I did and have had no problems in nearly 3 years.

Our 2006 Winnie had it installed by prior owner and it sucks!!! Was glued down. Pulling up all over the MH. I think the movement and flexing makes it pull up. I think maybe some of the laminated flooring may work better since it is stiffer and floating.

I didn't try this in the RV but I did use Home Depot's vinyl flooring which has glue tabs for interlocking. The floor itself "floats", not glued down. I used this floor in the utility room of the S&B which has a front-load washer and dryer. The vibration from the machines is separating the tile. Not a direct answer to your question, but hope it helps.
