    I'm looking for any advice on flooring for the kitchen. The three main contenders are: Hardwood, Tile, & Rubber flooring. Hardwood is our favorite so far. We are thinking Antique oak, gunstock. That's a Lowe's description. Anybody got any kitchen flooring advice?
    I personally like the wood floor look.
    If you have wood in the rest of the house i would do the kitchen in wood also just so you don't have 2 or 3 different floor coverings.

    The kitchen floor can take a lot of abuse, relative to the rest of the house (save the bathroom). Maybe look into Pergo.

    We also like hardwood and have it everywhere but the bathroom (linoleum), kitchen (Pergo with wood pattern), and living room will eventually be hardwood (it wasn't there originally, just carpet).
