Been a long time since I messed with it, but from I recall very easy to install and cheap enough that if you screw up while putting down or cutting, you won't blink at throwing it out and putting a new one down.
As some one else mentioned, make sure the floor is really clean and get as close to the subfloor as possible (assuming that's what is underneath).
If you go to replace down the road, the section under any heavy appliances (washer/dryer) will be a bitch to remove the longer it's down. Not a big deal, just a heads up.
With all of that said, I would go with the LVT others suggested. You can run to HD or Lowe's and get it by the roll to fit your area with minimal cutting. No glue necessary, as it's weighted to lay flat. They sell a glue if you really want to put it down. When I did this in a small room I used a small threshold to hide the edges in the doorway and redid my baseboards & quarter rounds to secure the perimeter. You can even get away with running them to the baseboard and throwing quarter rounds to save some costs/labor.
