I thought Vinyl was great!!!

SUPER bummed. Maybe I went with the wrong brand?

Rather than carpet, I went with 4mm luxury vinyl planks for 2 of my units. I figured they’ll last longer (cheaper over time), and they’re very durable (so I’m tenant proofing and preventing future maintenance)...

After ONE year and ONE tenant, these floors are toast. Scratched to high hell all over one of the units... other unit is still fine (better tenant), but the whole point of the LVP was to tenant proof even against bad tenants.

Has anyone else had this experience with LVP? Was this an anomaly?
