Before comparing materials, know what to prioritize. The ideal bathroom floor is waterproof (not just water-resistant), slip-resistant when wet, easy to clean, and able to handle humidity without warping. Comfort underfoot and style matter too, but water performance and safety come first in a space this wet.
| Priority | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Waterproof | Standing water and humidity are constant |
| Slip resistance | Wet floors are a safety hazard |
| Easy to clean | Mold and mildew thrive in bathrooms |
| Humidity tolerance | Prevents warping and swelling |
