Your first post was all about how it looked. That is personal opinion, period. Now you're comparing all sorts of different things. Re-finishing a hardwood floor costs more than re-installing laminate, so it doesn't really matter if you can re-finish it after 30 years. Please do not also substitute your experience for fact. Fact: White Oak has a Janka hardness of about 1350. Compare this to Brazillian Walnut (3650), Brazillian Redwood (3200), Brazillian Cherry (2450), or even Hickory (1820), and at least 20 more varieties of wood. Yes, Oak is soft. Correct. You can pierce finished oak with a toothpick. Try doing that with a laminate floor.
