The appeal of luxury vinyl plank is straightforward: it delivers the visual warmth and dimensional character of real hardwood in a format that's 100% waterproof, scratch resistant, and installable over most existing subfloors without adhesive or nails. That combination has made it the default choice for renovation projects where genuine hardwood would be the aesthetic preference but where the installation conditions — a slab foundation, a bathroom, a basement, a kitchen with heavy foot traffic — push against what real wood can handle. The vinyl plank collection at Flair Decos covers the full spectrum of the format, from entry-level dry-back planks to commercial-grade rigid-core SPC with 20 mil wear layers, across three manufacturers — MS International, Daltile, and Bedrosians.
Cyrus 2.0's low-gloss finish and realistic wood-grain embossing make it one of the most widely installed LVP series in the collection.
What Are the Different Vinyl Plank Installation Types — and Which Is Right for Your Project?
The installation method determines as much of the final result as the visual does, and the collection covers all three primary types. Dry-back planks — like the Daltile Pines Terrace 7.25"×48" 20 Mil and MS International Glenridge 6"×48" 12 Mil — are glued directly to the subfloor, which produces the most stable, low-profile installation and works especially well in commercial settings or rooms where floor height is constrained. They require the flattest subfloor of any method, but reward that preparation with a floor that doesn't shift, creak, or lift at the edges under heavy use.
Click-lock planks are the most popular residential option because they float over the subfloor without adhesive, which makes them faster to install and easier to replace if a plank is damaged. The Daltile Langton 7.5"×52" Flexible Click Matte Luxury Vinyl Plank is one of the most versatile click-lock options in the collection — its flexible core tolerates minor subfloor imperfections that a rigid core would telegraph through, which makes it a strong choice for older homes where subfloor leveling would otherwise add significant cost and time to the project. The Daltile Asher Bend 9"×71" 6.5mm Rigid Click 20 Mil is the premium end of the click-lock spectrum — a wide-plank, long-format rigid-core option with a 20 mil wear layer that suits high-traffic living rooms, open-plan kitchens, and primary bedrooms where the floor needs to perform for years without showing its age.
Rigid-core SPC (Stone Plastic Composite) planks occupy the highest-performance tier in the collection. The Daltile Halstatt 7.25"×48" SPC Rigid Core 20 Mil and MS International Andover 7"×48" 20 Mil Rigid Core both use a stone-composite core that's dimensionally stable under temperature fluctuation — which matters in rooms with underfloor heating, sunroom exposures, or the kind of Florida heat cycling that causes flexible vinyl to expand and contract over seasons. The rigid core also distributes foot load more evenly than a flexible body, giving the floor a more substantial, hardwood-like feel underfoot that the thinner flexible formats don't replicate as convincingly.
Asher Bend's 9"×71" wide-plank format and rigid-core SPC body deliver a convincing hardwood look with commercial-grade durability.
Which MS International or Daltile Vinyl Plank Series Is Best for a Whole-Home Installation?
Whole-home vinyl plank installations demand consistency across multiple rooms and lighting conditions, which is where a series with genuine color depth and enough variation in its palette becomes important. MS International's Cyrus and Cyrus 2.0 series — available in both 7"×48" 12 Mil and 7"×48" 20 Mil formats — are among the most widely installed LVP series in the MSI catalog for exactly this reason: a low-gloss finish, realistic wood-grain embossing across a broad palette of warm oak, cool grey, and driftwood tones, and a rigid-core body that handles the transition from kitchen to living room to hallway without any expansion gap issues at room boundaries. The MS International XL Cyrus 8.98"×60" extends the same series into a wider, longer plank that suits open-plan spaces where the standard 7"×48" format would create too many end joints across a large floor area.
Daltile's Bellamy Place 9"×60" 20 Mil Painted Bevel is the widest, longest standard plank in the Daltile collection — a painted bevel edge that adds a shadow line between planks for a more authentic hardwood appearance, and a 9"×60" format that covers large rooms with fewer planks and fewer end joints than narrower formats. For rooms where the plank needs to read as a background rather than a feature — bedrooms, home offices, transitional spaces — the MS International Ashton 2.0 7"×48" and Bedrosians Shorewood 9"×60" 20 Mil both offer a broader warm-wood palette with enough colorway depth to suit rooms that are already carrying significant design decisions in furniture and textiles. Shorewood's palette — Barrel, Hearth, Lodge, Stable, Villa, Exotika, Brianka, Fauna, Ludlow, Manor, Whitfield Gray, and more — is particularly strong for rooms with a transitional or coastal design brief where the floor needs to feel warm without reading as rustic.

For homeowners sourcing vinyl plank alongside porcelain floor tile, ceramic tile, or natural stone for adjacent rooms, coordinating the full flooring specification through a single supplier means one shipping timeline, consistent delivery windows, and with customer support available Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:30 PM EST, by phone at +1 (833) 317-4873 or email at orders@flairdecos.com with any mid-project questions. The shipping policy is clearly laid out before checkout. For rooms where the vinyl plank floor will sit alongside an area rug or coordinate with furniture from the wider Flair Decos catalog, the warm wood-tone palette across this collection was clearly developed with exactly those layering decisions in mind — the same way a well-chosen tile floor creates a foundation for everything placed on top of it. Shoppers who also want to compare the tile-format approach to the wood look can browse the wood look tile collection alongside vinyl plank for a complete side-by-side picture of both options.
How Do You Choose the Right Mil Thickness for a Vinyl Plank Floor?
Wear layer thickness — expressed in mils, where one mil equals one thousandth of an inch — is the single most important specification for long-term durability, and the collection covers the full range from 6 mil budget options to 22 mil commercial-grade. For low-traffic residential rooms like bedrooms and guest spaces, a 6–8 mil wear layer — like the MS International Katavia 6"×48" 6 Mil or Daltile Harper's Place 7.5"×48.5" 8 Mil — provides adequate protection at an accessible price point. For kitchens, living rooms, hallways, and any space with daily foot traffic, a 12–20 mil wear layer is the appropriate minimum, with the 20 mil options like the MS International Laurel 9"×48" 20 Mil and Daltile Asher Bend 3mm 9"×71" 20 Mil representing the residential standard for high-use areas. The MS International Laurel 9"×48" 22 Mil is the heaviest wear layer in the collection and the right choice for mudrooms, entryways, or any application where the floor will take consistent heavy use and needs to stay looking new for the longest possible window.
Shorewood's broad warm-wood palette and wide-plank format suit bedrooms and transitional spaces where the floor sets the room's temperature.
