Ratings & Reviews for STAINMASTER PetProtect Mountain Laurel Maple 12-mm T x 7-1/2-in W x 50-in L Waterproof Laminate Wood Flooring ( 23.69-sq ft / Carton )

Laminate flooring

Great color. Very durable

Cheap poorly made product.

Product is very noisy, creaking when you walk on it. Lowe’s installers advised that the product is cheap. Product also had visual defects and looks fake. Go with Pergo! Also, Lowe’s in store staff was very helpful but the Lowe’s Customer Service Install team that you deal with on the phone was not.

Love the look

[Employee of lowes] We shopped around for wood planks for our living room and chose these mainly for their PetProtect, waterproof, and water-resistant features. I used 14 cases total and checked every piece before starting, only 2 planks were slightly damaged, which I used in hidden spots. Installation wasn’t too bad, but it does take a good amount of force to get everything locked in. Getting one side to snap in is easy, but locking all sides at once can be tricky and requires some effort. I ...

Goodbye old tile; hello Matches the Hallway!

This vinyl plank is beautiful. I looked for a match to my hallway and the new kitchen plank is remarkably close to the hallway plan.

Bad planks

I absolutely love the color of this flooring—it’s beautiful and fits perfectly with my space. The quality also appears solid, with its water resistance. Unfortunately, I ran into an issue with two boxes that contained defective planks. My contractor didn’t notice the defects during installation, and once I saw the surface had bubbled, we had to remove and replace that entire section using planks from another box. This unexpected setback caused a delay in my project and led to additional costs, w...

Avoid this flooring

We loved the look of this flooring and I hadnt used Stainmaster flooring prior to this. Just to preface here, I have installed many floor prior from laminate, LVP and hardwood. I started the update for my boys room and set everything up like normal. Cut the starter, set up spacers and ran the entire first row. Nothing you would notice just yet since the ends are easy at this point, just install the ends by angling up and laying down. Here is where it went really wrong, the second row. I la...

easy to scratch

brand new floor. I like the color, the size and we were drawn to the "pet protect" and scratch resistant feature on box. warranty does not discuss that claim. I'll be emailing manufacturer. it's very easy to scratch, light vacuum use has scratched it and there are other chips that we didn't have an incident to relate it to. we are not using the floor in any way over the past month that is abnormal to kitchen or living room use. I'm scared to vacuum now!

Looks nice, but installation finicky.

I've installed a couple other brands of laminate in the past. Believe the other reviews that say installation is a pain. It's doable, but took me so much longer than it should have. Probably easier with two people - I did it alone. As for the board patterns, the repeat nature of the ones with knots made it a bit tricky to create a random looking appearance in a small-ish room. As you can see in my photo, there's really only one board pattern that is dark all the way across. It would have looke...

Turned out gorgeous!

This was our first time laying flooring. Once we had the right tools and knowledge, the process went really smooth. The flooring looks and feels great! Nothing broke or was wasted. I would purchase again if we update another room!
