Comments about BELLAWOOD 3/4" x 3-1/4" Natural Beech:
I bought this wood for $3.50 less a square foot then the closest competitor. I had a professional installer who was a perfectionist. Donnie Mckinnis in St. Louis with Burlington Tile and Flooring. He loved the quality and ease of installing the wood because every piece was almost perfect in it's integrity and fit to the next board.

Comments about BELLAWOOD 3/4" x 3-1/4" Natural Beech:
The floor itself is just great. Never installed a 3/4 solid wood floor before. A very clear install instruction sheet would have been a great help. The floor nailer does not get any closer than 8"-10" from the walls, so how do you get the first few rows attached? No instruction on this... and LL, and others were no help, so we got a pneumatic T nailer, and guessed. Also, the first row went under existing wall radiators, and again, some instruction help, PLEASE! We've done kitchens, baths, and a near complete historic home restoration, so we're above novice and do-it-yourselfer's. A small bottle of finish touch up would help, as an errent nail or two nicked an edge. Once past the first rows (& final few), it went smoothly, and the finished floor is great.
