We did the vinyl plank flooring from Home Depot in our DR a few years ago. Allure brand. I absolutely love it! They have 2 grades - 10 yr warranty and lifetime. Lifetime is waterPROOF; 10 yr is water resistant. We plan to put more in other rooms of the house - currently BR and hall but eventually LR as well. Have ceramic tile in the kitchen which I love as well. I find the vinyl very comfortable to walk and have chairs rest. Also warm. The color goes all the way through the planks so no worries with doggie toenails either.
