Dark tones
The sample we got (which is quite large) is pretty dark - when you look at the visual, it appears it also could be lighter. We will probably go with a different one but I do like the texture.

This does not hold up to life
Would Not RecommendI chose this flooring for our new addition which is 700 sq foot of kitchen bathroom and sitting space. We have 2 teenage boys and 3-4 dogs with us. We do have a door to keep the dogs out during the day or if I am cooking. I wanted a floor to hold up to our life. We live in a 250 yr old house that has 250 yr chestnut floors and we also did hardwood 17 yrs ago in our living a dining room both have held up fabulous to our kids and dogs. We have luxury vinyl of a different brand in a high traffic ro...

Wish I hadn`t
Would Not RecommendI bought over 1500 sq ft in March 2021 mainly due to the fact that is is waterproof and I thought it would hold up. Had I known that it would scratch so easily I would have steered clear. I can`t move a coffee table, recliner chair or my kitchen table without it scratching (and all those did scratch it) Honestly I would give it a 0 if I could and most certainly DO NO RECOMMEND IT.
