Eco Silent Sound HD Underlayment

GOOD MOISTURE BARRIER AND SOUND BARRIER

I taped the joints in addition to built-in strip. Necessary evil compared to pre-attached pad

This goes down really easily. The only "con" is that it tears easily when maneuvering the wood planks around and using the rubber mallet.

After installing floor, noticed crackling sound every time you walk on it. This is going to bug me. I wish the store would have given us some tips to prevent this. After spending a ton of money on the beautiful hardwood floor, now I will have to listen to this.

Under 12mm laminate flooring

Light, easy, sound proofing

Very easy to work with. Noticeable noise difference in a room with heavy kid traffic

this stuff tears so easy. when you are cutting it to size if you barely move the roll, its rips like crazy. the plastic used to tape the two together is way too noisy. we have to cut that off and use seam tape instead. I didn't want to hear that every time we took a step.

Easy to install

I purchased and used this underlayment under a Solid Ash flooring. I was sure glad I did. The product was well made and seemed very consistant size wise and helped a bit in leveling those little inperfections in plywood. I optted to use this instead of rosin paper.

One con is the price (vs rosin) but if you are thinking long term of it lasting decades to come with the flooring, the cost is worth it.

As an added plus the recycled content and it being much more green was a plus.
