I am getting ready to replace the carpet and linoleum in my MH. I am leaning towards wood, but, I thought I'd check here to see what others have done and if you're happy with your choice. Did you ...

I have installed a few kinds of laminate floors in my day and I can say I would never have it in my home or MH. Depsite the different grades you might get and the problems with each I could never get over he plastic "clacky" sound when you walk on it. I never subscribed to fake products made to look like the real thing. Just get the real thing. For pretty much the same time and money in such a small space like a MH, go with a real product. Most people that own laminate claim it looks like the real thing. Frankly I can tell the difference as soon as I walk in the room. Not to ruffle anyone's feathers. And I see a lot of comments about water etc. Just how much water are you guys getting on your floor? I don't seem to have that problem. All that said, my MH came with vinyl floors and veneered cabinets. ;)
No doubt about it real wood looks better than laminate. But laminate is cheaper, easier to install, and doesn't scratch or dent as easy as real wood.
