It's vinyl plank flooring. The flooring store we use has it down in their entry and the walkway to their office. It looks so much like wood that my hubby the custom builder was fooled. It really looks like wood. The pieces of vinyl are in planks with texture and color like wood. They are even contoured on the edges so that when it is laid, it looks like wooden planks. It's less expensive than laminate, more durable and does not have a hollow sound when you walk on it.

Here are a couple of links to some information on it: http://www.associatedcontent.com/art..._of_vinyl.html

Marilyn, thanks for posting about this! I really like the looks and what was said about it. It would be perfect for our basement, if we ever to finish it.
