Buyer beware, there are large differences in quality and robustness with this type of product. Some variations are only 1/8" thick which makes the interlocking features on the edges very thin and fragile. Some of the best products are more than 5/16" thick, have a much more robust interlocking features and the wear surface is considerably harder. But its not an inexpensive product at that point. I laid the 1/8" vinyl product in a kitchen renovation a few years ago. Was not particularly difficult to lay. Then the new side by side refrigerator was delivered and rolling it across that floor just once opened up several seams and was a nightmare to put back together. Never again.
Myself personally, I will never use the 1/8" vinyl stuff again. I would rather do ceramic tile, assuming the floor is rigid enough to make it feasible. I like homes with a slab, so thats a match. I also like radiant heat, which is again a match to the kinds of floors and finishings that I like. In my opinion, its just a fad.
