Anyone do this and like it/regret it? I hate carpet, but that is a lot of $$ to do and it might be hard to match the existing stuff.
Could go with something like vinyl or laminate, but would that look even weirder? Plus the resale value of the house having wood to match the rest seems better.
And the stairs, would it be better to still get carpet for the stairs?

Carpet is safer, but you can get some fairly safe wood nose risers these days. Or you can do a carpet strip with wood on the sides.
