we've got the Tile Loc slate blue stuff from B & Q in our kitchen. It does look like tiles, but is warm underfoot. They sell beading that 'matches' the flooring and we have used that. It is also very easy to lay. Check out www.diy.com to find it. We also have the sandstone colour in our porch. Our Ikea plank type laminate in our lounge hasn't really been durable enough and is very scratched and has a few dents in where things like the remote controls have been dropped, however the tile stuff has had loads of things dropped on it, but is not dented or damaged in any way
