Luxury vinyl flooring is not the thin, flexible sheet vinyl from decades ago. It is a layered, rigid core product built to handle the demands of modern households — performing more reliably over time than standard vinyl ever could.
The rigid core construction makes the Cyrus Series fully waterproof throughout. Suitable for kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and any space where moisture is a daily concern.
Protects against scratches, spills, pet accidents, indentations, and sun damage. The floor continues looking right under daily household use in a way that less protected floors would not.
The Cyrus Series is backed by a lifetime residential warranty. That is the strongest warranty tier available for residential vinyl flooring and it reflects a product built to perform long term.
The CrystaLux wear layer is the protective surface on top of each Cyrus Series tile. It is what stands between daily household activity and the printed wood-look design beneath it.
In practical terms, it handles the kinds of damage that accumulate in a real home over time — pet claws scratching across the floor, dropped items, furniture being moved, regular foot traffic, spills, and sun exposure through windows that would fade other flooring types over time.
The wear layer prevents these from reaching the surface design and degrading how the floor looks. A Cyrus Series floor in a busy household should continue looking right under daily use in a way that a less protected floor would not.
At 7 inches wide and 48 inches long, each tile is proportioned like a wide hardwood plank rather than a square tile. When laid across the floor, the result reads as a wood-look plank floor rather than a tiled surface — giving the Cyrus Series a warmer and more residential appearance.
The longer, wider tile also means fewer layout lines running across the room compared to smaller tile formats. The floor feels more expansive and less grid-like.
For rooms where a wood-look finish is the goal but real hardwood is not practical because of moisture concerns, the 7×48 Cyrus Series tile achieves that visual direction in a fully waterproof format.
This is one of the strongest practical advantages of MSI Rigid Core Vinyl. The floor is stylish enough to carry the main living areas of the home while being practical enough to handle the busier and more moisture-prone spaces too.
The Cyrus Series is suitable for all grade levels — above grade, on grade, and below grade. That makes it one of the most versatile flooring options across the whole home including spaces that other flooring categories cannot go into.
The 100% waterproof construction handles cooking spills and regular cleaning without concern. The wood-look finish gives a kitchen warmth that cold stone or tile would not.
Waterproof throughout. Water from showers, baths, sinks, and laundry appliances cannot damage the floor or its core.
One of the strongest fits. All-grade installation capability handles ground moisture that would damage hardwood or laminate.
High-traffic areas where scratch resistance and spill protection matter most. The CrystaLux wear layer handles both without special maintenance.
The 7×48 inch plank proportion creates a floor that reads more like hardwood than tile — suits the main living areas of most homes well.
The wood-look finish suits bedrooms where a warmer, more natural floor is the goal without the moisture sensitivity of real hardwood.
Scratch resistance and durability under repeated daily foot traffic make the Cyrus Series a strong choice for hallways throughout the home.
The waterproof surface handles food and drink spills without any special treatment. Clean up is straightforward and the finish holds up.
All three MSI series at APS share the same waterproof rigid core construction and the same general performance characteristics. What separates them is format, wear layer, warranty, and design direction.
The Prescott Series is a plank format product with a 20 mil commercial grade CrystaLux wear layer and three warranty tiers covering residential and commercial use. The Cyrus Series uses the standard CrystaLux wear layer and carries the lifetime residential warranty — suited specifically to residential installations.
The Andover Series is also tile format but covers different colour directions and product names. The Cyrus Series has the largest product range at APS with 24 options across the full range of wood-look tones available in this format.
APS brings Cyrus Series samples directly to the property. The review happens in the actual room being updated — with real lighting, real walls, and real furniture present.
The 7×48 inch tile format can read very differently depending on room size and light conditions. A lighter product like Whitfield Gray in a bright kitchen can feel clean and open. The same tile in a smaller or darker room can feel heavier. Seeing the sample in the actual space gives a far more accurate picture than any showroom setting can.
The in-home review also lets homeowners compare the Cyrus Series tile format against the Prescott Series plank format in the same room — helping clarify which direction actually suits the space before any product is ordered.
The Cyrus Series uses an easy-install locking system which makes the installation process more straightforward than some flooring types. However, installation quality still affects the finished result significantly.
Proper tile alignment matters because the longer 48-inch tile makes any deviation from a straight layout line more visible than a smaller tile would. Clean transitions at doorways and room edges affect how finished and intentional the floor looks. APS handles installation as part of the complete project — the goal is a floor that sits correctly, aligns cleanly, and performs properly under daily residential use from the first day.

“We chose the Wolfeboro for the kitchen and living room and it looks exactly like the real hardwood we wanted but could not afford. The installation was clean, done in a day, and it has held up perfectly against our two kids and a dog.”
“The APS team brought four or five Cyrus samples to the house and we could see immediately which one worked with our walls. We went with Whitfield Gray and the result is exactly what we were after. The basement especially looks great.”
