Kitchens may in fact be worse, I haven't tackled anything in there yet. Essentially as long as you can avoid dealing with plumbing, you only have the hell of electrical to worry about, really.

Time it took for the skilled labor to come in & install flooring: 12 hours. done in a single day. The time-savings alone is worth the cost to your pocket. Not to mention the sanity savings. for what it’s worth, the rest of the house won’t be, unless you tackle the kitchen.
