Why do people install expensive hardwood flooring in their kitchens, the place where you are most likely to drop food, cutlery, spill liquids, etc? (lemmy.ml)

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.

Couldn't agree more.

Our kitchen table was pretty expensive when we got it and is destroyed from a heap of kids use and family meals over about 22 years. It is firmly agreed (by them too) that when my wife and I die it will be the only thing the kids fight over possession of.
