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.

When I bought my house it had 2 layers of carpet in the kitchen. I replaced it with hardwood because I didn't want to stain the carpet.

IMO the best flooring for kitchens is cork or real linoleum (not vinyl).

Throw rugs and tile in mine

Though I do get your point, ceramic tile is probably best, but to each their own ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I have never seen a wooden floor in a kitchen, where do you live? May as well use a carpet floor lol

Same people install white or cream carpets just before they decide to have kids or a party.

Mostly I have seen it to have seen it with cheaper floating options and even in the bathrooms to have a seemless consistancy throughout a condo. Never seen it done in a house.
