I am leaning towards cork,
It seems that for everyone who tells me I need a floating floor there is someone else who says a glue down. One cork company told me floating is water resistant , but glued down is water proof. Are there any opinions here related to either?
thanks bgk

It all depends on how much water you are expecting to fall on the floor.

We have cork at hole and love it. It's a floating floor and there are areas where our worthless cat peed, vomited up a hair ball, or whatever where the seams have swollen. Were I to do it again I'd seal the surface.

My Aunt has a glued down cork floor in her kitchen and it has held up very well.
