What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the flooring's stunning, realistic wood-like appearance and DIY-friendly installation, with most finding it indistinguishable from real hardwood. The pre-attached underlayment simplifies setup, and many first-time installers complete large projects in a single day. However, some raise serious concerns about water resistance, reporting planks bubbling or swelling after moisture exposure. Quality control issues including defective planks and edge chipping are also noted by several reviewers. Despite these drawbacks, most customers who experienced no defects remain highly satisfied with the product's appearance and value.

Perfect flooring

Would Recommend

I love the thickness and it was well built. It’s snapped together pretty good required very little, tapping or movement. It even fit together with a different brand where I continue to floor I love the fact that it’s highly water resistant.

disappointing

Would Not Recommend

this stuff is cheap for a reason. the "waterproof" claims are nonsense. I have had this for a year now and it is way more sensitive to water and scratching than advertised. save up your money for better laminate or go with hardwood.
