What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise the flooring's stunning visual appeal, natural wood look, and rich tones that elevate spaces. Most find installation straightforward and intuitive, requiring no special tools beyond a saw. However, some report frustration with the plank locking mechanism, noting planks require firm tapping to join properly and occasionally separate after installation. A few mention damaged planks or inconsistent coloring between boxes. Despite these quality concerns, most customers consider the product worthwhile for its beautiful appearance and relative ease of installation.

Chipped

Would Not Recommend

We bought this flooring in April and had it installed in our new home on our second floor. Within 2 MONTHS, there were 4 different areas that chipped and we hadn’t even fully moved in yet!! It’s a beautiful color but it is very cheaply made and wasted our money on it.

Not a good laminate

Would Not Recommend

Flooring sample looked nice in store.. When it went in it looked terrible ! It does not clean well at all. There is a hazy sheen on it after cleaning. I used cleaners safe to use . The finish is not nice. I wish I could throw it out but too much work to install another flooring. Do not buy!

One of the worst laminates I have ever dealt with.

Would Not Recommend

I bought this same laminate last year and it was easy to install and came out great .So I decided to do the room next too it . It has been a disaster. It will not stay locked. I don't know if the manufacturer has been changed or what. So I have started to use tightbond glue on every piece to hold it together. I have installed a lot of laminate over the years and this is one of the worst.

First, I am a newbie at diy. Many videos and research before tackling this project. Second, I bought this product from a local auction (no pad attached). I was hesitant that I might just hate the color once installed, since it's multi (Forrest City Pine). Third, I did this alone (450 sq ft). Demo, self leveling subfloor, and install. Lastly, I LOVE IT! Did it take forever? Yes. Did I smash a finger and/or pinch the skin on my forearms between some planks? Also yes. Yet, I sit here with a smile ...

DO NOT BUY

Would Not Recommend

Garbage product. They dont lay flat, and are not square. They lock not flush with the floor. I tried to weigh them down and deal with it when I should have just loaded'em up and returned them. Half a room later I noticed that the earlier rows popped apart and left gaps. Started over. Same thing.
