does anyone have hardwood floors ?

[pudgy]

my carpet is bad, thinking of having hardwoods put in , but im wondering how much my heating and cooling bill will be affected.

I just installed (myself) some of that fake wood flooring by ALLOC. The stuff is durable, realistic looking, and easy as hell to put down. And it has a padded underlay to cushion your tooshies. When one board get's boogered, you can disassemble it and replace then snap back together again.

I think natural hardwood dents too much etc.

I have 4,000 square feet of hardwood floors(37 year old house)that was all wall to wall carpet originally. Doesn't really affect the heating/cooling too much. Definitely keeps the house much cleaner. Wait until you pick up the carpet!
Have some nice area rugs to keep the noise down and feet warm. If you have only an oriented strand board (OSB ) or plywood sub floor and want to do a laminate floor the cost would be less than 3/4" select oak hardwood to install and finish. Only thing with pre-finished laminated you can only sand and refinish it once before it needs to be replaced.
