What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise this luxury vinyl plank for its stunning wood-look appearance, exceptional durability, and straightforward installation. The authentic finish with rich, warm tones and natural grain texture transforms spaces with sophistication. The 20-mil wear layer provides excellent dent and water resistance, making it ideal for high-traffic kitchens, basements, and bathrooms. The locking system clicks together like a puzzle, enabling easy DIY installation. Reviewers consistently note the comfort underfoot compared to tile, enhanced by the built-in vapor barrier. A few mention visible pattern repeats and dirt visibility on lighter tones, but overall, customers consider this a premium, high-value choice.

Went back for more

Would Recommend

We bought coretec flooring previously from Lowe's and installed it in our basement. We loved the flooring so much and it survived two leaks flawlessly. Now, years later we did an addition and needed to add flooring in the addition so went straight back to Lowe's for more Cortec flooring! We love this color and know the flooring is waterproof and durable.

Top contender

Would Recommend

Taking home a sample of flooring is a great way to really visualize the space. We are still narrowing it down, but the quality and appearance makes it a top contender for our family.

Andover Oak! It’s light and beautiful! Paired with alabaster walls and clary sage accents! I would buy it 10 times over! Gorgeous! No more dark or honey oak for me! Beachy and modern farmhouse appeal

Sample review

This is a review of the sample only. The pattern and print on the top is slightly less realistic than I had hoped; however, it is still better than most we looked at. The sample was helpful for envisioning this flooring in our space. I can't talk to the durability, installation, etc. since it's just a sample.

So far so good

Would Recommend

Looks and feels good. No issues with the installation by contractor, who commented on the quality of the planks. It certainly looks and feels above average quality, which is also what you're paying for. Reviews for such materials are only truly meaningful after years of use - these are just first impressions. If I'm horribly dissapointed in the future I'll try to remember to adjust this review.

Great product

I had installed this in my rental apartment 2 years ago and it has had no issues with wear. I like it because it hides dirt because there is so many colors that its hard to tell if there is something on it or the pattern. Easy to install locks together the first time soft material that doesnt break easily and its a narrower plank so it looks more like a hard wood floor Only bad thing is its not available to pick up at store so I had to wait a week. But I needed this pattern to continue my pro...
