Laminate or allure vinyl flooring

So guys I am looking for opinions about this topic. I am trying to determine what is the best options for a property with  tenants/with pets and small kids. My concerns are around quality, durability and resale value. I have heard great things about the allure flooring,but I have also that it does scratch with pets and resale value is less. While the Laminate is highly scratch resistant and water resistant with good resale value it does have an issue with spills being left on the surface for a period of time.

    My favorite flooring is Lifeproof sold at Home Depot. It's wide plank/modern and its vinyl so it should be water proof. It's really quick to install. I haven't had it long enough know how scratch resistant it is but I've gotten so many complements on the floor & people always telling me how nice it is. I like the sterling oak color which goes really beautifully with light grey paint.
