So we have real wood parquet and it is super comfortable on the feet....barefoot as well as with socks. Plus it is planed, which offers an incredible texture, you would want to lie on the bare floor and stroke it all day long :-) By the way, it was not more expensive than a high-quality vinyl floor....

Lying down all day petting wooden boards...there are so many sexual orientations! But beware, no board under 18! K.

We have tiles completely on the ground floor, yes the tiles are hard and it makes quite a splash when our little one kisses the floor with her face but outside it is no different, there the asphalt lichen is added.

We also have play rugs lying around, unfortunately Lotti can't read and is not a dog that you can banish to a corner :D

The ground floor is "actually" warm, we only have problems with the heating circuits. Because the doors are always open, not all heating circuits always turn on, the thermostat draws the temperature from the adjacent hallway or the still open kitchen. So in winter it does happen that part of the tiles is cold.

But this is less due to the tiles and more due to our "living habits"

In the study there is a rough carpet on the tiles, the room also gets warm.
In the attic we have laid laminate, the rooms also all get warm.

That has nothing to do with it; if all doors are closed, each thermostat works with its room air and all heating circuits operate. But since all our doors are open, we have about 60 sqm with 5 heating circuits and 3 thermostats kitchen/dining, living room, hallway depending on how I now set the thermostats, either the kitchen heats the living room along or the living room heats the kitchen.

The only solution is to close the door, but try explaining that to a 2-year-old.

No, only the proper hydraulic balancing helps there.....then you don't need your thermostats anymore
