Hell no, it looks terrible so quickly. The patterns to make it look like “wood” or whatever are at most a millimeter deep, so enough usage and suddenly you have a worn out blank spot in your giant piece of shit plastic floor.
It outgasses forever, you’re funding the fossil fuel industry, it looks and feels like shit, and you’ll throw it out in 5-10yrs.
Tldr, fuck linoleum, it is inferior in all but one metric: water resistance.
I haven’t seen the original form of linoleum made it installed anywhere on any jobsite I’ve ever worked.
I realize the term has been co-opted by the plastics industry, but if you’re specifying the original linseed oil recipe from the 1870s, you need to specify that.
Vinyl and linoleum have been interchangeable terms in modern parlance for several lifetimes at this point.
You sure that’s hard wood? You sure it’s not laminate designed to look like hard wood?
Step one to fixing it would be actually finding out what it is.
Looks like linoleum lol
Linoleum is kind of awesome.

Linoleum and vinyl are not the same thing. It does dent.

Not here. Vinyl is an upsell.
