I'm a floor snob. My husband put in hardwood floors, and I personally think that hardwood floors are the most beautiful floors in the world. I like them even better than pergo, which I think looks fake. But if given a choice between pergo and tile, I'd choose the pergo, cause the hardwood floor look is always in style, whereas the tile look comes and goes. Plus you can put throw rugs down on hardwood floors/pergo, and it looks good. It's a lot harder to do that with tile. In my dream home I'm going to have hardwood floors all through my house, with area rugs to cut down on the echo, and to make the rooms warmer.
