what type of coating did you put on the hardwood floors

we got 2 estimates from someone that came to look at our floor yesterday.

one for a regular polyurethane coating and the other for the moistureware something or other (I am awesome at this stuff).

the moisturesealant is $150 more, but will last a longer time.

we are RENTERS, but in a rent controlled apt that has been in dh's family for over 30 years, and will be even after we move out...

can you all tell me the pros/cons you experienced with these finishes?

TIA

The company that did our floors did a regular high-gloss poly.
