Width of floorboards

Question

Are there any advantages to choosing wide rather than thin floorboards?

Marius · Answer

In small rooms, wide planks will create the illusion of a larger space. Visually, the wood will draw the eye across each plank, and is less busy to give a feeling of spaciousness. Lighter woods also work best in small rooms, as it makes the room seem more open

Hi. There's no advantage, it's only what you like. Nicholas

Hi 
The only benefits there would be less boards to put down 
Therefore less time & less fixings 
But not necessarily less cost.
If the boards are going to be seen as in a finished floor sanded and varnished then a standard size board would look more pleasing on the eye 
4 or 5 inch board

Michael · Answer

A standard board should be no less than 4-5 inch anything smaller can break

Robert · Answer

Yes of course but also not to thin because can damage very quickly 
My opinion it is buy thick floorboard with normal size
