My basement flood in 2021 made me switch from carpet to vinyl plank

When my sump pump failed during that big rainstorm three years ago, I had to rip out all the soaked carpet and padding. I spent about $2,800 to replace it with waterproof vinyl plank from a local shop. Now, I don't even worry about spills or dampness down there, and cleaning is just a quick mop. Has anyone else in Edmonton made a switch like this after a big mess, and what did you pick?

My neighbor had the same problem and went with epoxy paint on the concrete floor. It looks like a garage floor now, but it's bone dry. I still prefer the feel of something underfoot.

Did you look at any other flooring options, or was vinyl plank the obvious choice after that mess?
