We had it in our living room at the last place we built. It was easy to clean and looked good. However, it wasnt as hard wearing as we were hoping and scratched very easily.

I was tempted to do this in my kitchen but my builder advised against as it doesn't last.

We have Ecodure bamboo flooring waiting to go down in our entrance way dining room ,kitchen and laundry. Looking forward to having it down.
You are able to sand this type back should the need arise.

Our son and DIL have recently replaced tiles in their home and they look like bamboo flooring. They are long fairly large tiles and look very neat and tidy.

I can tell you that out kitchen floor and water wasn't a good mix and was an is insurance job. They couldn't match the floor and the water made a few boards warp very quickly. Can't imagine most of these flooring working well in a wet area.

Bamboo flooring can be problematic at the best of times, it dislikes any kind of moisture and I wouldn't put it in a wet area.

And it dents very easily.

My parents have it in the living, dining and their bedroom. Has been down about 6 years, still looks good, they did have to put felt 'feet' on all the furniture though as it can scratch. Apart from that it's fine as they don't wear shoes inside and the dogs aren't allowed in so it doesn't get scratched.

We took the insurance payout and tiled at least it won't dent or scratch and can handle some water. Was actually cheaper even with underfloor heating.

Only if it is laid over a concrete slab that still has moisture in it
