What Customers Are Saying
Customers praise the beautiful appearance and high-shine finish, with many highlighting excellent color match and luxurious aesthetic appeal. However, widespread frustration centers on manufacturing defects: numerous reviewers report severely warped boards, poorly cut ends, missing tongues, splits, and inconsistent dimensions forcing them to discard 10-20% of pieces and delay installations. Many question quality control and express reluctance to repurchase. Installation difficulty varies; some find it straightforward with proper tools, while others struggle with warped boards and short lengths creating choppy appearance. Despite visual appeal, manufacturing issues significantly undermine overall customer satisfaction.

Bruce hardwood floor
Would RecommendWe just put in 220 square feet of this flooring. There was very little waste, the wood was in excellent shape, no broken edges,weird coloring, scratched pieces. I almost didn’t buy this based on the other reviews. I bought 12 cases, used 11 and still have a few pieces left. For this price point I am very pleased with the outcome. Maybe we got lucky…good for us!
High quality and appearance
Would RecommendAppearance and consistency was exceptional. Not a single damaged piece in 19 cartons. Great variety of grain and coloration. Very pleased with how the installation went. Angle nail air tool using 1.5" cleats is a must. Used synthetic roof underlayment as moisture barrier.

Would Not RecommendStore didnt register my pickup, so when I went to return the item customer service could not process the request. Causes massive chaos and no accommodations to make it right even for a disabled customer, which violates federal disability law
