  The only areas the we cannot recommend that you use bamboo flooring in is any wet areas such as bathrooms and utility rooms.  Bamboo is fairly resilient to moisture but it is by no means waterproof.  If you are searching for a floor for a bathroom or kitchen, why not look at Luxury Vinyl Tiles which are 100% waterproof.
