Comments about BELLAWOOD 5/16" x 2-1/4" Select Brazilian Mesquite:
I installed this in a bedroom over a weekend using a Bostitch LHF-97125 air stapler. It worked great, with only a few misfires initially while I got the hang of it. The depth of the finish and variety of colors and grain patterns in this Mesquite is awesome. Every board is different, so it’s a good idea to have a helper laying them out ahead of you to keep things mixed up.
I have only one point of caution. At 5/16" this flooring is pretty flexible, meaning that it will not smooth out or hide imperfections in the subfloor (e.g., bad plywood joints, uneven surface transitions). If you have this situation, I would consider using the 3/4" flooring or putting down an additional layer of flat subfloor.

Comments about BELLAWOOD 5/16" x 2-1/4" Select Brazilian Mesquite:
It is beautiful flooring it is very durable with dogs. The only problem is it shows hair very easily, so you have to sweep the floor alot. I love the floors very nice to walk on in the mornings.

Comments about BELLAWOOD 5/16" x 2-1/4" Select Brazilian Mesquite:
I almost didn't buy because the price for 3 inch was a bit too expensive. The salesman did not offer any options. There was a 2-1/4 inch available in the same product that was a better price and he didn't show it to me. My husband found it when he went back to look at it. But I am very happy with what I got because it varies in color and blends with any furniture that I already have. It is beautiful and I will buy more from your company because I shopped around and found the best product and value with you. And I have already recommended to a couple of friends.
