Me and a friend of mine just replaced carpet in his entire condo with laminate.
Super easy to do. Looks like real wood, easily snaps together, just had to make sure we cut it as close to the wall as possible, no more than a 1/4" gap. Took us 2 days to do 2 bedroom condo including closets, stairs and so on. We also put a special mat under the laminate.


If your old tile is OK, not cracked or loose anywhere, than you can lay it over the tile. If you are feeling adventurous, take the tile off yourself.

But yes, I agree with Sara. Real hardwood is a bad idea in a kitchen. Laminate would do a better job.
