    Go for the look you want and what looks go adjoining the rest of the home. But remember that very dark floors show dust and dirt and hairs more than lighter ones.

    I prefer a lot of contrast between cabinets and wood flooring. If it's just a shade it looks like a mistake. I like dark cherry cabinets and almost natural oak floors. But that's just me.
