Aesthetics - Hybrid vs Laminate

Hey Everyone!

Hoping someone can give me a hand - first time home builder - I am upgrading to Hybrid floors for the waterproof factor and I'll be having a dog running around a slopping water everywhere.

Hybrid have the more plasticy look and feel to them but has been suggested to be more durable

Laminate has the smoother surface but is more of a 'fake' wood print

From experience which do you prefer - is it worth the upgrade?

    I've seen a lot of scratching with laminate, a dog would probably add to this issue. Spend as much as you can for something with some quality to it, there is so much hybrid on the market it is going to pay to do the research.

    I'm currently considering cork - these days it looks different to brown square tiles from the 70s!
