Looks good! I spent the weekend doing our living room with vinyl planks and I've got the soreness too.
I really appreciate this thread! I'll someday post a pic or two of our someday mudroom.It’s happening! The bedroom we started in smelled like smoke, so the carpet got ripped up and floors, walls, and ceiling all got primed. Ceiling and walls were painted and then we laid out chalk line in the hallway and worked off of that. So far so good (other than the soreness).

Nice job. We are getting ready to install 16 x 32 vinyl tiles in our bathrooms and laundry room. Unfortunately, my knees no longer allow me to get down in the floor to do the work myself. Unlike your mostly rectangular rooms, bathrooms have a lot of cutouts, making the installation much more difficult.

Man, no kidding! I never would have thought of that.Nice job and a nice floor.
Its much easier with two people. That way the one laying the floor doesnt have to get up all the time. Nothing like doing 5 or 6 hours of squats to stiffen you up for a few days lol.
Man, no kidding! I never would have thought of that.
The question is: me or the lovely War Department doing the floor work? I'm lazy, so I want the easiest job.
So, would you recommend the vinyl plank stuff in residential use? Money is kind of an object, depending upon how long a certain wealthy great Unkle lives, lol.I should have added that vinyl plank flooring is easier that way than laminate or wood flooring. You dont even need to get up to go to the saw, which is usually outside, just to make a simple cut. You can do it right there on the floor with no mess.
You'd be surprised how many trips you need to make to the saw when doing a floor with laminate, not to mention laminate flooring kills saw blades dead, quickly.

I agree with @Esox if I have the time and funds I would like to continue the vinyl plank throughout the entire house. The biggest benefit of vinyl over laminate is that it is waterproof. Completely waterproof meaning it can be used in bathrooms and kitchens without the risk of laminate. The Mannington Adura Max I am using is click and lock, so no glue needed except in tight areas around the walls and door frames. Price point is a little higher than some of the thinner vinyls.So, would you recommend the vinyl plank stuff in residential use?
