Hello dear forum community,

we are currently considering the flooring for our upper floor: bedroom, office, dressing room.

We would like to choose a uniform flooring throughout.

At first, we thought of click vinyl. After checking out a few home improvement stores and specialist flooring retailers, the alternatives mentioned above have come up.

Advantages of vinyl: texture, easy installation, moisture resistant.
Disadvantage: plasticizers in the material (although currently considered safe).

Advantages of cork: natural raw material, warm and comfortable underfoot feeling.
Disadvantage: sensitive to moisture, surface relatively soft even in the pressed version. (Possibly problematic in the office)

Lindura (brand name, we are open to alternatives)

Advantages for us personally: best appearance, pleasant underfoot feel, natural raw material, moisture resistant.

Disadvantage: relatively expensive compared to others, limited decor options.

It would be great if you could share your experiences.

Mineral laminate (Logoclic Xtreme)

According to a Bauhaus employee, it has been available for 2 weeks.
Unfortunately, no information besides the promotional video. The friendly staff repeated in a loop that the material is mineral-based, like screed, and that’s all they know...

We liked the decor, it is supposed to be a natural raw material and absolutely moisture resistant.

We are open to manufacturer suggestions, especially regarding Lindura and Logoclic Xtreme.

Good luck Fanta

Not as far as I know. The standard solid wood planks are unfortunately far beyond reasonable in terms of price. Maybe our assumption is wrong, but we do not want to take the risk and therefore rely on durable parquet flooring.

I still need to sort through the quotes.
But so far, discounts of 20+% off the selling price are regularly achievable, if this can be publicly shared here.

Is there any news here? Has anyone already installed the flooring and can share firsthand experience?

Hello everyone,

Yesterday, Lindura was recommended to us at the specialist retailer. Both visually and to the touch, it made a really good impression.

Does anyone have experience with this flooring by now? I am particularly interested in whether a floating installation is advisable – we would also install it in the kitchen, among other places.

Thank you very much!

Hello!
We are also currently building and facing the big decision of whether to install engineered hardwood flooring or Lindura in our house.
Lindura would be significantly cheaper compared to the hardwood flooring we have chosen. Another advantage is the hardness of the material.
The salesperson in the store showed us that the oak hardwood flooring can be relatively easy to dent (he made a small dent with a plastic ballpoint pen).
Since we also want to install hardwood flooring in the kitchen, this is an important factor for us.

Are there already any experiences with the Lindura veneer flooring?
Should we expect that this millimeter-thin wood layer might wear away or disappear over time, leaving only a black "something" behind?
If that’s the case, I would rather invest the money in proper hardwood flooring (even though ours is textured and supposedly never needs sanding anyway...).

Best regards!

Hello!
I am also interested in hearing experience reports about Lindura flooring. Has anyone already installed this type of flooring in their home?
