Hardwood flooring installation should generally be avoided in kitchens and bathrooms. Engineered hardwood allows for a bit more breathing room since it can manage some moisture. Your engineered planks will fare well in a finished basement, as, unlike solid hardwood, they can be used below grade. Solid hardwood, on the other hand, is better reserved for dry, quieter rooms, including bedrooms, office spaces, and living rooms.
