About Bamboo:Bamboo floors' popularity has increased over the past few years as people have become more aware of the fragile state of the environment.Because it is a grass rather than a wood, it grows far more quickly than a tree. The plant's extensive root system continually grows underground and it replenishes itself naturally, as grass does.New growth, which springs out of the ground and can mature up to 24" in 24 hours and unlike trees, bamboo will regenerate quickly, making it a renewable resource.Handscraped Stained: Stained and given a contoured and beautiful handscraped finish.As seen on EXTREME MAKOVER HOME EDITION!Don't forget the molding and stair treads!We offer an extensive selection so that you can match wood species to your new floor.(Who else can do that?)Click here to see our Moldings, Treads& Accessories

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Imperial Palace Handscraped Bamboo:

Used this product under a vanity in a bathroom that was already tiled. Needed something that would go well with the tile where a different tile would have looked terrible. Had some fears that in a wet environment this would be a bad idea. Bamboo was the perfect choice as it can take the moisture. The finish and color of this particular bamboo matched the cabinet perfectly.

Very pleased

We selected this product after purchasing the St. James Vinters Reserve. Once we got the Vinters Reserve home, we decided against installing it. The decision to switch was the best decision we could make. This floor is perfect. Beautiful color, excellent texture, looks great in direct light!

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Imperial Palace Handscraped Bamboo:

We had the Imperial Palace Bamboo flooring installed by LL in our Master Bedroom. After 1.5 years, it still looks brand new. We've received lots of compliments from friends and family and we love the flooring. The floor needs to be "Swiffered" about 1 or 2 times a week because it shows dust. Other than that, we haven't had any issues. It's way better than our old carpet. Enjoy the pics!!

Fantastic Flooring

By Steve The Bamboo Owner

from Asheville, NC on 3/11/2010

Pros:

Attractive Finish, Beautiful Color, Durable, Easy To Clean, Easy To Install

Best Uses:

Dining Room, Family Room, Living Room, Office

Bottom Line:

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Imperial Palace Handscraped Bamboo:

This flooring gets many compliments. It is certainly a conversation starter. It looks very "rich" and exotic.

I had great concerns regarding it showing dust and scratches but it is not very bad. It does show dirt but all hardwood floors will. Our house has always had a "no-shoes" policy so any dirt and scratches are really no big hassle.

Service & Delivery comments:

Lumber Liquidators service and delivery were flawless from initial contact in the store to post-install questions. These guys will be hard to beat.

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Imperial Palace Handscraped Bamboo:

We replaced the carpet in our living and dining room as well as two flights of stairs. Each piece that came out of the box was straight and consistent in color. We weren't sure how well we would do so we over-ordered a little. With the extra wood we are making our own baseboards. They're turning out lovely.
We opted to use the wood to create our own stairs instead of the ready-made treads and we would do it again. They look great.
And it's true - keeping a Sharpie handy is the best way to deal with little nicks and scratches.

We hired professional help for the installation, and it is a beautiful floor. It does show a few scratches and requires frequent cleaning...but everyone that visits my house stares at my floors with envy!

If you like Espresso coloration, go for these floors...this is a very trendy look especially with the hand scraped "waves".

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Imperial Palace Handscraped Bamboo:

I floated this over a ground level slab, per the instructions with the flooring; LumberLiquidators shows only nail down and glue down options, but it floated fine. Only 1 plank out of 5 cases had some minor damage on one end. Color was consistent throughout the lot. Looks amazing and very classy. Does show dust quickly given the dark color, and minor scrathes which hide easily with a sharpee marker.

Simply Stunning!!

By Jenn the Singer

from Huntington Bay, NY on 3/17/2008

Pros:

Attractive Finish, Durable, Easy To Clean, Easy To Install, Scratch Resistant

Best Uses:

Move theater ceiling

Bottom Line:

Comments about Morning Star 5/8" x 3-3/4" Imperial Palace Handscraped Bamboo:

This bamboo flooring installed on our ceiling completely transformed the room. It creates an atmosphere of warmth and luxury. My carpenter had a very easy time installing it and couldn't believe how straight and square and perfect each piece was. The stain was so even that the ceiling looks flawless. He loved it so much, he turned it around the other way and installed it on the face of our bar cabinetry for a more natural bamboo look.
