[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never heard someone say they wouldn't buy a kitchen with ceramic or porcelain tile.  I'd go with that.  Tile is pretty standard for a kitchen floor, especially if the house isn't open plan and you don't have the same hardwoods throughout the whole first floor.

You can put a rug in front of the sink for more comfort while washing dishes.[/quote]

I hate tile/ceramic in a kitchen. I don't know that any kitchen floor would be a deal killer for me, since it's not a permanent flaw, but tile/ceramic would make me drop my offer the most.

We just discussed kitchen floors in another family-oriented internet forum I post in, and every person with tile said they hated theirs, both because it was painful to stand on and because everything shatters when dropped (or is so heavy it chips/breaks the tile). Preferences were split between wood, cork, and Marmoleum (mostly depending on the style of the rest of the house), but nobody wanted tile.[/quote]

Yeah, I credit our tile floor with my knee pain.  It started about six months after we moved in and nothing else has changed.[/quote]
