We had also considered installing vinyl throughout the entire house, but then decided on tiles for the ground floor and vinyl for the upper floor (except the bathroom, where there are also tiles).
I would be really annoyed now if we had vinyl on the ground floor as well. Although the vinyl wasn't the cheapest, it is clearly of much lower quality than tiles. Visually and in terms of feel, it simply cannot compare with tiles. Furthermore, I am unfortunately firmly convinced that it is not as durable as it is claimed to be everywhere.
A pair of scissors fell on it and now there is already a small visible and tangible hole in the covering.
I definitely didn't want vinyl in the entrance area (dirt, small stones, etc.). Besides, I wouldn't feel good later if kids were running around there with Matchbox cars or similar.
And with underfloor heating, tiles don’t feel cold either. We only move around the house in socks.
