Hardwoods (laminates) in master bedroom?

Does anyone have this?  We're getting ready to put hardwoods in (we're probably going to go with laminates) our dining room and family room but I'm considering putting them in our master bedroom as well.  There is a track of footprints through the bedroom to our bath that drives me crazy so if we don't do that I'm going to have to replace the carpet anyway.  I'm wondering about resale too since we plan to leave in about 5 yrs or so.  Thoughts?

 Thanks! 

ETA:  We will still have tile in the foyer and kitchen and a carpeted hallway with three bedrooms and a bathroom (bathroom with tile).  Our master is on the other side of the house.  I'm not sure if that would be strange to have wood in only one of the bedrooms?

  • We had them put all throughout our house about a year ago and I love them.  I have dogs and I love not having carpet.

  • We have them, I do keep a rug under the bed and sticking out on both sides so my feet have a warm soft place to land when getting out of bed but we love the hardwood.

  • We have hardwood downstairs and laminate upstairs. I hate the laminate and I don't think I'd want hardwood in the bedrooms either. I like stepping out of bed onto the carpet but that's just me.

  • I would absolutely replace carpet with a hard surface flooring in your bedroom.  It will help cut down on allergies or asthma problems for your family.  Carpet traps all that dust and dander and is a dust mite paradise.

    We replaced the carpet in our nursery and hall with cork tiles (PIB) and I intended to replace the carpet in the other two bedroom with the same cork.  But DH has talked me into moving in 3 yrs, so I won't invest in better flooring now.

    I don't think you need to worry about the flooring being different there than in other areas.  Variety is nice and you may decide to eventually replace the rest of the carpet with the laminate.
