Where to Buy Allure Vinyl Plank

[Suzette Lowery]

I'm currently doing a cosmetic rehab on a SFR I recently purchase and I'm having a hard time deciding on the flooring in the kitchen, dining area and bathrooms. I prefer to use ceramic tile because ceramic is durable so you'll never have to replace the flooring again. Also it's cheap, $0.60 per sqft, however the labor is not $4 per sqft.

My next option is vinyl plank, $0.99 per sqft, $0.75 per sqft to install. I have never used this material before and reviews are from one extreme to the next, either people loved it or hated it so I am assuming it's based on the brand choice which contributes to the difference in quality, durability and thickness. Allure seems to be the brand people prefer and a thickness between 3mm to 4mm. The big box stores only had 2mm in stock so will be visiting a couple of floor distributors to see if they had the thicker plank.

For people who are using the Allure where are you buying it from?
