- Playtime_IIExplorerI did my Stick and Brick with a floating/interlocking edge laminate floor and for only a couple of short edge separations, I love it. However, I did not want to break out the compound miter saw, table saw, and other wood working tools so I got the Allure with the adhesive edges. YES, I have some short edge separtions, especially in cold weather. But it was easy to cut with a utility knive and install (under the slides!). It is great to keep clean. The dogs don't like it as much. They cant get traction to jump onto the couch. Wearing just socks could be dangerous but those would be the same issues with hardboard laminate or vinyl laminate. Go For It.
- buc1980ExplorerI replace the carpet in the whole FW with laminate wood 3 years ago and I like it so much.
- RollandBExplorerVery nice change!
- BendderExplorerI think it looks great! Makes the room look brighter also it seems.
Mark - craftyfoxExplorerLooks great! We have a 2007 LKTG,the floor plan is very similar so I was able to show DH what ours would look like with the Allure installed. Maybe one of these days.......

Since we're fulltime the RV never sits out in the cold without heat on so the issue may be different for us than for a weekender in the north. It that case it's likely a real concern. - Ron3rdExplorer IIIThe only negative I've read about the standard Allure in in regions with huge temperature swings, ie, freezing then heat.

- turbojimmyExplorerNice work. I read the warnings in the Allure instructions, but the reviews are overwhelmingly positive. I'm going to give it a whirl when the weather gets warmer.

I hope that works well for you, as it does look nice. However, Allure floor tiles are specifically not for use in RV's, and for use in only a specific temperature range. I mention this for anyone reading this thread and thinking about Allure.
Fair enough - time will tell.
I researched this quite a bit - when I google: "Allure Trafficguard RV" I find lots of positive reports on using it. In fact, if there are any negative issues I've missed them.
I suggest that anyone considering it do the same kinds of search and decide for yourself - so far as I am concerned the positive reports carried the day. - DownTheAvenueExplorerI hope that works well for you, as it does look nice.
