Suggestions for new flooring in my MH

I would like to remove my vinyl tiles and carpet in my MH and replace with wood-look vinyl. I have read that Home Depot has a vinyl product called Allure that some have used in their RV. It makes a floating floor with an adhesive strip that you can stick the pieces together.
I worry about the adhesive getting soft when stored in the Florida heat of summer.
BTW, I would like to put the wood floor down in the main cabin plus the slide out. Not exactly sure how to install at the point where the slide meets the main floor.
Anybody done this and have words of wisdom? Also, not totally sold on Allure, but haven't heard of any other product used in a MH.

    I've read others review of Allure both good and bad. Some love it, some think it's junk and not good for an RV. Best I remember when I was in the market to replace our carpet, I read somewhere that Allure actually recommends NOT to use it in an environment that is not climate controlled all the time.

    We decided to go with a product called Flor carpet squares. They too are floating and can be replaced one square at a time if you spill something or it becomes damaged. We removed all the furniture ourselves...and I do mean ALL, except for the cabinets....tore out the original carpet/padding and had a carpet installer to put in the carpet squares. We couldn't be happier with the result.
