Which flooring is suitable in new construction with underfloor heating?

I also throw in the covering from , Liquid Design (a kind of liquid linoleum), it really looked great. But I fear it is not that inexpensive.

Neither. Sealed probably means painted for you. There are indeed modern paints that don’t look so glossy anymore, but they’re not for me.
I mean finished oiled/waxed parquet. That needs to be maintained but doesn’t need to be oiled regularly.

How can one imagine that?
We are also currently reconsidering flooring options. In our last house, we had vinyl and agree with you - it does feel like plastic underfoot. However, we haven’t really dared to go for parquet so far. Mainly because of fear of maintenance effort (children in the house), and because you often see shocking photos online of how parquet can look when something spills or other disasters happen.

How do you maintain the floor well, and how much effort does it take?

I oiled engineered parquet on underfloor heating. At first, it was oiled twice, now after 2 years I oil the frequently used rooms (kitchen, dining area, walkways) again. Otherwise, the maintenance effort is quite low. Keep it clean with a broom or vacuum cleaner and those who want can also mop with a slightly damp cloth and maintenance oil. Scratches disappear quickly on wood or can be filled with [Nussraspeln]. I also installed it floating, so the floor has a bit of spring when walking.

So far, we haven’t really dared to go for parquet. Mainly because of fear of maintenance (children in the house), and because you often see shocking photos online showing what parquet can look like when something spills or other disasters happen.

I recommend a rustic decor, so with apparent imperfections. With "Select," meaning very uniform, dents are much easier to notice. Oiled is also better than lacquered. If a color oil was used for the floor, imagine a small bottle next to it, then you can relatively easily "iron out" larger marks that might bother you with wood filler, sawdust, oil, and color oil. And if, due to water damage, a plank should really warp, it’s better if the floor was laid floating, then you can easily replace the plank.

Maintenance for oiled floors means, as already mentioned, re-oiling the walkways once a year, and when a room is renovated again, meaning painted white, and the furniture is completely emptied for it, you can quickly re-oil the whole floor with a mop.

PS: I have attached some pictures of our floors in rustic oak. Of course, there are also other types of wood in rustic style, and you don't necessarily have to have them smoked.

What do you mean by your question (was my statement back then)?

How do you properly care for the floor, and how time-consuming is it?

Vacuum cleaner and mop every four weeks with the appropriate product, dampened to a mist.

and because you often see such shock photos on the internet of how parquet can look when something spills or other disasters happen.

Do you also want to see shock photos of laminate, cork, and tiles? You can find plenty of those as well. It's not as bad as it seems.
