I enjoyed working with this wood. A couple of things though - I went to my local rental store to get a floor nailer and found that the guage and type of nails they provided wouldn't go all the way into the tongue of the wood. I had to hand nail the floor with my pneumatic nailer - which was fine but not as "engaged" between boards as it would have been with a nailer. Also, be careful when you cut the boards the long way - the smell from the laquer is strong. Floor is great though.
Glue down is more challenging than anticipated. It worked well though and looks beautiful.
WE JUST PUT THIS FLOORING DOWN ALL OVER MY HOUSE. IT LOOKS AMAZING. ITS TOO NEW TO TELL ANYTHING BUT LOOKS BUT I KNOW AS OF NOW IM VERY IMPRESSED

Recently used the carbonized and natural bamboo in a pattern in our great room, liked it so much we did a spare bedroom the same way and it came out great! We also added glass tile accents.

Very pleased overall it looks great. However there were some quality control issues with the end cuts being way out of square (see photos). I did not do all of the installation, otherwise I would have cut them to clean them up. It was about a box all total that were out of square. The manager @ the purchase store said he'd look into some adjustment... haven't heard anything yet.

We installed this floor over a very uneven old (100+ years) pine and patched with plywood floor. We screwed 3/8 plywood over the old floor first and installed the bamboo over the plywood. I was worried that we would not have enough since the manager in the store added only 10% over my measurements, but I was delighted when we had a full box left over. The floor was very easy to install and there was virtually no waste. We covered the large living room, hallway and bedroom with large closet. The floor is beautiful and I love the way the grain in the bamboo looks. The color is a little light and yellow tinted compared to the wall color. I highly recommend this product.
I ordered this flooring and had my contractor install it in a room we're preparing for an elderly relative. The flooring was [...] installed without any problems. The flooring is bright, clean, and attractive.

The floors came out great! I installed over 500 square of the natural and the same in carbonized. It was so nice to be done with the installation and not have to sand and finish them
The only problem I could foresee is if you had to glue (I used a floor nailer with staples over a wood subfloor), I think it would be very hard to tighten the gaps without a floor nailer.

The bamboo flooring was easy to install.The sales staff at my local Lumber Liquidators was very knowledgeable and helpful. I will definitely shop for flooring here again--especially if I am notified by e-mail of any special offers or promotions. I have recommended this store to the many people that have admired my new flooring.

We had a professional install this floor. It looks beautiful. We used the more expensive sound absorbing underlayment and it was definitely worth it the floor is almost silent.

The new bamboo floors have brightened up every room. We absolutely love them. Everyone who visits can't believe it is the same area!

The most difficult part is removing the bits of glue that invariably get on the floor. The wipes work well, but are expensive and time consuming. Otherwise this is a beautiful product and so far holds up well.

[...]Steven and I are getting married August 4th 2007. I will be attending graduate school at Appalachian State University as he works a full-time job. We found an old apartment about a mile from the University which seemed to have potential. We knew that hard wood floors would make the biggest difference and help us sell it in two years. We selected bamboo floors [...]for a reasonable price (even for two college students). The job only took two days and now our place tooks totally different. [...]I have never gotten so many compliments on my decorating skills:)
