Regarding this, is EVP flooring good?Engineered Vinyl Plank (EVP) has an incredibly realistic hardwood look (and feel) and is exceptionally durable.

Roll, Tile or Plank Vinyl flooring, which has been around since the 1970s, is made up of four distinct layers: felt or fiberglass topped with a printed and embossed sheet coated with clear vinyl and finally finished with a clear, protective urethane top layer. The product is available in sheets, tiles and planks. which is better EVP or LVP flooring? LVP is 100% vinyl which means that is much more susceptible to warping, especially with excessive sun or heat. EVP on the other hand has a PVC core which makes it more durable. 2. EVP typical come in a thicker plank (like 8 or 9mm) which makes it easier to install and gives it a more solid feel.Is EVP the same as LVP?what is the difference between EVP (Engineered Vinyl plank) and LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank) EVP is more like laminate than LVP. Installs like laminate (using a tapping block), feels like laminate, but has a vinyl top layer, so it has the waterproof qualities of LVP. Not as scratch resistant though, in my experience.
