We just have linoleum, which should have been replaced throughout the house at least 10 years ago. We have gone through many bathroom heaters--I still have a couple in the garage that I plan on taking apart one of these decades.

I had Mom ask about replacing the bathroom vent with one with a built-in heater because plugging in a heater for my brother's baths makes my spider-sense tingle.

Yes, it should be fine, but I would rather not worry about it, and it would be nice to not periodically replace heaters--especially out-of-season.

Mom says that she wants laminate throughout the house, but she has fallen multiple times, and had a huge bruise the last time.

She got the thickest carpet she could when they bought the house and when it is actually clean it looks all right.

I have never seen laminate that i have liked. The Spruce says they print 3d woodgrain, but all of the patterns that I have ever seen looked absolutely flat.

It sounds like the only benefit that The Spruce showed for laminate was that it seemed warmer, while vinyl is waterproof, and is quieter.

I once watched a video where a guy put in pine flooring.

What if you wear heels on pine?

freebeard, I need you to find out for me!
