Brazilian Koa has a distinct dark orange color with brownish/black striping which is where it gets it's namesake. Brazilian Koa's exotic beauty and durability make it stand out from the crowd and it is an outstanding choice for the discriminating home owner looking for that unique and envidiable flooring no other neighbor has.About Engineered Flooring:Hardwood veneer layers are stacked on one another, with the grain of the adjacent layers oriented perpendicular to each other.Because wood expands and contracts in the direction of the grain, one layer stabilizes the next, resulting in a product that is less susceptible to the effects of moisture & temperature change.Don't forget the molding and stair treads!Click here to find our extensive selection of moldings & accessories for you to match wood species to your new floor.(Who else can do that?)Lumber Liquidator$

Comments about Schön Engineered 3/8" x 3-1/4" Brazillian Koa Engineered:

Eng. brazilian Koa turned out to be a great choice in our family room. we had to glue it down on tile, although it took some effort to find a pattern the floor looks so rich and diverse. The room is about 200 sq.ft., i still have bathroom and hallway. one advice is to find a pattern and cut everything prior to gluing. and be careful when you use the installation tools, put a thick towel under the corner tool to protect the plank finish while u hammer it.also don't leave too much space on the edges, they say 1/4" is enough, if u go more than the quarter end might not cover the gap so it will look ugly. also, the glue dries up quickly, so plan of finishing everything in 2 consecutive days. no matter what u do the glue dries. there was weird instructions on putting a plastic bag and laying the container upside down, well this way u waste a lot cause it gets messy on the plastic bag the next day. we did the project over 2 weeks (i had to level some areas which i didn't know about initially, its a good idea to check all these before hand) so every time we opened the glue box we find a thick dried skin that we needed to pierce to go in. so the next batch i'm planning to finish gluing in 1-2 days. thats why u need to decide pattern and cut everything before laying the planks, u reduce the amount of time having to think so u just glue. Regarding the pattern, they said you should have a minimum of 6" between sims, and smallest piece around 6" as well. we came up with a pattern that repeats every fifth row. we had three size planks in our random size boxes.[...]. It was our first experience in installing hardwood floors.

Comments about Schön Engineered 3/8" x 3-1/4" Brazillian Koa Engineered:

I installed the product three years ago in my sun room. The color has changed a bit darker but not as much as I expected. It has a rich and warm look that gets compliment all the time. The sun room is not well insulated but the floor has been very stable throughout the three cycles.
