Cheaper Alternatives to Karndean LVT Flooring: a Lifestyle article

Karndean is considered the benchmark in Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) flooring; so stunning that they cannot be differentiated from real wood and stone floors, they are extremely durable and easy to maintain.

However, they are expensive too; if you are looking for cheaper alternatives to Karndean floors, Lifestyle Flooring have looked at some brands you could consider.

Quick-Step Livyn

Quick-Step Livyn feature a protective top layer that safeguards the surface from stains, scratches and water. An advanced Stain Guard and Scratch Guard technology guarantees these floors retain their stunning beauty, even after several years.

Quick-Step floors are available in gorgeous wood and stone effects. They are extremely soft and comfortable underfoot and feature sound-absorption properties, which reduce noise caused by scratching pet paws, high heels, dragging furniture and heavy footsteps, and give you a silent floor to walk on.

Quick-Step floors that support the Uniclic Multifit system give the benefit of easy installation. The planks can be clicked into place without any adhesive, which makes installation easy, quick and efficient.
