Flooring Options

We are looking at Cork flooring. It seems like a very interesting alternative to carpet, wood, tile, anyone with experience?

I found this website very interesting: Cork flooring

Never lived with cork but I have laid cork tiles (and vinyl) for a job. If there is any change of level on the floor, like a slope/ramp etc, make sure you get an experienced installer to do the job. And make sure that epoxy glues are used around any wet areas as most installers are paid by the metre and pay for their own glue etc (well, that is certainly the case in Australia and New Zealand) - so if nobody is watching most will use latex glue around wet areas because it is a third of the price of epoxy per metre.
