Seems like a terrible idea to me.

You make one mistake one time and bingo, you cost yourself a few grand to have it sanded, leveled, varnished, and polished.

    We’re about to move into a different house and will have to replace all flooring after foundation repairs. I would go with linoleum but i don’t think i can convince my husband that it’s not the same as vinyl. Also, i don’t want any height changes so I’m not sure what floorings i can put in the kitchen and living that are level.

      “Vinyl is bad because it’s made of petroleum, whereas real linoleum is made of plants and is therefore more eco-friendly” isn’t sufficient?

      (I have to admit, the other advantages of linoleum over vinyl are… not much.)
