Is this plank really waterproof?

Yes. The WPC core is waterproof throughout, not just on the surface, so standing water and spills won't swell the plank. Dry up standing water promptly to protect seams and the subfloor below.

Can I install it myself?

The click-lock edges let you float the planks over most existing hard subfloors without adhesive. You still need a flat, clean, level surface and room for expansion gaps at the walls.

Does it include underlayment?

Each plank has attached underlayment, so you don't need a separate foam or cork roll. It adds sound reduction, shock absorption and some thermal insulation.

How does it compare with standard vinyl plank?

The rigid WPC core is stiffer and more stable than flexible vinyl, hides small subfloor flaws better and feels firmer underfoot. Flexible plank is thinner and often easier to cut around tight spaces.

Is it suitable for a basement or bathroom?

The waterproof core makes it a reasonable choice for basements and powder rooms. In full bathrooms, seal edges and transitions and don't let water pool at the perimeter.

Can it be used in a shop or office?

It is commercially rated, so it can handle light commercial traffic. For heavy foot traffic, confirm the wear layer rating before committing to a large area.

Our take on the Element Flooring Premier WPC Mica Waterproof Luxury Vinyl Plank

Element Flooring Premier is a rigid-core WPC luxury vinyl plank with a click-lock edge and attached underlayment. The waterproof core is stain and scratch resistant and rated for commercial use, so it suits busy homes with kids and pets as well as light commercial spaces. The attached pad adds sound reduction and shock absorption that glue-down and thin vinyl planks lack. Against entry-level vinyl, the rigid core hides minor subfloor imperfections and stays dimensionally stable; against premium WPC brands, the wear layer and color range are the main things to check.
