Cork Flooring Review Summary
Reviewers say if you are looking for earth friendly flooring that is also family friendly flooring, then check out cork flooring. Cork floors? Yes, we said cork. It is a natural material that many "green" homes are currently using for the flooring in a home. But, be prepared, cork flooring is not cheap-- it can be as expensive as hardwood. The advantages: cork flooring offers the "rich" look of hardwood with some of the comfort and warmth of carpet flooring. Cork flooring is warm and cozy and great if you have kids or pets. It is also water resistant, easy to clean, easy to install and reportedly low maintenance. Reviewers say go with cork flooring if you want the coziness of carpet but the convenience and eye appeal of hardwood. And, of course, if you want to help the environment too!

too busy to make beds, a green thumb

If you are open to different ideas when it comes to your floor, or just realize that putting carpet beneath your feet contributes to the problem, rather than the solution then cork may be for you. It's durable and beautiful. With a little looking it was easy for us to find affordable floors, no more than buying laminate or hardwood.…
