great stuff
By jslrVerified Reviewer from Jacksonville, Fl on 11/30/2008
Pros:
Dog doesn't scratch it, Durable, Good Value, High Quality
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Easy to lay and appears to be pretty tough. It does take some planning to make the seams look random, I wound up laying the rows out loose before deciding on the length of the starter piece.

Too much upward pressure on the end grooves will break them off, I learned this early in my project.

This morning I finished installing this flooring in my kitchen. I haved this floor in my Living Room, Bath, & Hall for 1 1/2 years and it still looks like new. As for ease of install...all I can say is I'm a 50 yo woman with a back problem and I was able to do it myself. As long as you know how to use a saw & hammer, aren't afraid to ask questions you can do it. The guys at Lumber Liquidators were very good with suggestions on some problem areas I had.

 
Awesome value for the money.

Product was installed throughout a condominium. I like the finish in that it doesn't show a lot of the dirt that was very noticable w/ my other laminate flooring. I was somewhat disappointed at the color that I received as it was much lighter than the color I thought I had originally ordered. The finish is also textured rather than a gloss finish. However, I am still pretty satisfied w/ the product overall.

This was my first go 'round with laminate. I t wasn't that difficult to install just very time consuming. 3 1/2 days,(10-12 hour days)for 3 people to install approx. 800 square feet of flooring. I had no intensions of installing but our flooring guy backed out on us. That said I did like the pad pre-installed on boards and it looks great. I only wish the home builder could build a straight wall.

One other thing...get pine quarter round and stain it cherry...you will save a few bucks and it also looks nicer.

 
Very Nice Floor!

Have a pro install unless you have plenty of time to do it yourself! I spent a full seven days to finish living room and hallway. Would be easier if boards were more randomly cut to begin with, there are only 2',4', and 6' pieces, so you will be making plenty of cuts for the beginning and ending of rows! Laying a laminate floor as a weekend project is a complete fallicy! Be patient!!

I used this throughout a 2 level condominium. It is very easy to install. I especially love that the underlay padding is attached to each plank, allowing you to skip the step of laying this down before.

Looks great all over. I've gotten compliments from everyone.

Beautiful finished product
By PE the NurseVerified Reviewer from Upstate New York on 6/26/2008
Pros:
Attatched pad is a plus, Attractive Finish, Easy To Clean, Looks like real wood
Cons:
Difficult To Install
Best Uses:
Dining Room, Family Room, Living Room
Describe Yourself:
Professional
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Let me start with this, the floor is beautiful!! It is a "soft" pattern, and resembles a real wood floor. The "wood" pattern is very soft, from across the room you may not see a well defined wood grain in low lighting. Having the pad attatched to the product is wonderful.It gives it a nice solid feel under foot. This is a very good quality product for the price. Now the con.I listed myself as a pro, because that is who I had install the floor. He said it took him twice as long as usual, due to the single 3 1/2 inch planks. They also range in length from 16", to 31", to 47". The 16 " one really perplexed them. They had to lay it out in a pattern to make it look right. Having said this, they also said it was a very nice floor. They would not suggest any one but a professional to install this floor.

 
Nice product
By DeeBee from Anne Arundel County, MD on 6/15/2008
Pros:
Attractive Finish, Durable, Easy To Clean, Scratch Resistant
Cons:
Instructions were lacking
Best Uses:
Bedroom, Hallway
Describe Yourself:
Novice
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The instructions didn't explain how to work the
flooring around/under door frames. The 1/4 round
trim looks cheesy, and it seems too large. Also,
in estimating how many boxes were needed, it kinda
sucks that I have 4 boxes left over.

I put this product down over 600 sq ft in a rental. Looks really good, but the V-groove is a little difficult to clean. Also, has chipped in a couple places due to our inexperienced installation.

This is a great product. It is a beautiful color, and it also has a nice texture.

We installed it in our family room and dining room about 18 months ago, and have not had any complaints. This summer we plan on putting it in all 4 bedrooms, the hall way and on the stairs.

It really stands up to the test of kids and pets.

I have had this product for a few years.. it is very durable. I have 2 dogs with sharp nails, and there are no marks, scratches, etc. I plan on putting it in another bedroom. I do hear a lot of tap tap tapping when the dogs are walking in the rooms. I have put in a few small area rugs to make it quieter.

I was a little worried about trying to put this floor down myself however it was very simple. Almost too simple. I am extremely pleased and would recommend highly. The three inch strips as opposed to the larger laminates really makes this look great.

We undertook a fairly large project, with a limited amount of time. We installed this product through the entire house (almost 2000 sq ft total)

The single strip planks do take more time, but it is well worth it. I have had people come into the house, get down on their hands and knees, and still swear to me that it was hardwood.

Floor looks great after one year of use. We have an 80-lb dog, and a child. Not one scratch yet. This stuff is tough. The only downside is that the floor shows dirt easily. Other then that install is a little tough but well worth it for its durability.

A beautiful floor

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I put another Lumber Liquidator laminate in my kitchen. It was so easy to install and it looks so great that I decided to cover my very old oak floor in the living roon. This product is particularly nice because it has a beveled edge that shows off the individual strips. It looks like real wood. But, the flooring is warmer and softer on the feet because of the elastic layer on the bottom of the laminate. Highly recommended - easy for the average homeowner to put down without assistance.

We bought enough to do both of our kids bedrooms and had a little bit left over (a box and half to be exact). So we have decided we are going to put it in our dining room also. We bought more padding to put under it since our kids would be playing on it and we live on a slab. It is a blue backed moisture proof barrier and it added about the same amount of padding that was installed on the boards. We had a few problems at first during install but overall it was easy. I don't like that you have to rip the click edges off the first boards, I really don't think it is necessary but I did it anyway. I can not attest to the durability yet as it has only been a few months but we have cleaned up spills with no problems. [...].

The product is beautiful once it is all in, but it does take a lot longer because they are individual boards and it is a little hard to get the hang of until after quite a few rows. Otherwise the end product was beautiful, very natural looking, and looks very real. My family was very pleased with it!

This floor looks great! Takes time to install because of the varies sizes and 3" width. I noticed it separates easily at the ends. I'd use the brand again but maybe not this style because of the time consuming install. Something that would go together easier.

Pros:
Attractive Finish, Durable, Easy To Clean, Scratch Resistant
Cons:
Moderate install
Best Uses:

Bottom Line:

Labor intensive due to 3" widths. Underlayment is already attached and may be a lil too thick. I weigh under 160 and the floor has quiet a bit of bounce to it. May be more noticiable for heavier people. Looks great after install. Flipped house so I don't know the long term outcome of floor. V groove is a strong positive.

real easy to work with
By CindyVerified Purchaser from Sonoma, CA on 2/4/2007
Pros:
Durable, Good Value, High Quality
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is really easy to work with and you can get a little creative with the repeat pattern....it is worth trying. One good thing about the moisture barrier other than the obvious, is that it is slick, and after your floor is laid, and before you do your base boards, you can scoot it a little to square it up. It doesn't sound "clicky" when you walk on it. It does take more time because of the individual boards, but it looks more natural. I'd say a day for 10 x 12 room.
