Normal people come and go thru the front door. That brings in dirt. Pets bring in dirt.

I'm guessing the people having problems with hardwood scratching easily were probably finished with the cheap crappy water based product.

that stuff may dry quicker, and not smell, but it sucks for durability.


Use a good Polyurethane.

Hardwood for sure. We have it everywhere with rugs were needed.

Unless you have a maid cleaning your floor everyday, and kudos if you do, then carpet allows you to skip a day or two.
Carpet grabs the dirt and holds it.
Hardwood and laminate just get your feet/socks dirty.

A vote for hardwoods is a vote for toe funk.



Me being a member of a superior culture where we remove our shoes when we enter the house instead of walking in with all the dirt and crap that can be found out there..

also that sounds really really disgusting, I'd have to cleanse that carpet with fire.
