I had to order this wood as a fill-in. I started this project using reclaimed 3/4" x 3-1/4" white oak. I ran out of the used lumber about 130 sq ft shy of completion. This wood is AWESOME!!!!! I only scrapped one piece that was terminally split. This is supposed to be rustic grade, but is as nice as some #1 flooring I've seen at other places. This stuff was all equal dimensions, and all t & g, with very very few imperfections. In retrospect, I probably should have ordered utility grade to match the reclaimed flooring I already had laid. This stuff was much nicer. Had I known how nice, and inexpensive this flooring is, I would have burned the reclaimed stuff, and ordered enough of this to do my whole house. I'm a fan. Nuff said.

using this flooring on my entire first floor, mixed in some utility grade for more knots and pits. I was going for a dark rustic floor, and this was by far my best choice. Given the price of this flooring, I probably will do my second floor at some point. I was afraid to attempt something like this originally, but it turned out to be far easier than I thought.

The wood looks beautiful, but I was not able to use any of the long boards, and very few of the medium length boards because they were too badly bowed.

I did not install b/c I have never done it before, but my fiance is a builder and he had NO problem installing it. It's a great product and I would add pictures, but we haven't quite finished laying it all down and we are waiting until spring to sand and finish. Eventually I will add some before & after photos. I like that although the flooring is rough....it is ok to have down on the floor just the way it is w/out sanding it for a few months - it's not so rough that you can't walk on it!

I have yet to install this wood, the average length was about 3.5 ft a board also purchased the higher grade, average was around 6 ft a board to blend in.

A buddy and I installed over 3,000 square feet of this product in my new home. The millwork was very good, which made installation easy. Very little waste for a "rustic" grade. A little bit of filling, and fairly easy sanding. Wound up with a beautiful finished floor that everyone who sees it raves about it! You can't get a better floor for the price! I was going to buy a more expensive grade, but the manager of the local store in Columbus said I should "check out" the rustic grade...good call by him!

I used this lumber for a solid, durable, and attractive floor in my 16ft x20 ft workshop and it is superb.My son did most of the installation and he was also impressed with wood quality for the price.
