I'm in a hotel that has a wood look roll. After 5 years of commercial use its still looking good. More quiet than wood or laminate too.

I don't want my world to come to an end if somebody drops a glass of red wine on something that sops it up. If only for cosmetic purposes.? It's not worth the risk of having to remove the polyurethane if it doesn't work out. Not to mention the amount of dry time when you cannot walk on it. Just use some type of floor shine now and then.
