Unfinished is Best
By ChrisVerified Reviewer from Farmington Hill, MI on 8/30/2008
Pros:
Attractive Finish, Durable, Easy To Clean
Cons:
Work but worth it
Describe Yourself:

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

This is a lot of work to install, then sand, then finish but it is my opinion it gives the best looking floor possible. No laminate can compare and although the pre-finished solid wood floors have the "feel" of this the smooth, no beveled edge board floor looks far superior. Cost is more competitive than top quality pre-finished floors if you install it yourself too.

Pros:
Attractive Finish, Easy To Install
Best Uses:

Overall the product was very good. I was not pleased with the number of pieces that had missing tongues and some had what looked like insect holes. Better quality control would eliminate these types of problems.

I had to replace about 15 sq ft of the floor due to some remodeling. After refinishing the floor, the replacement boards matched perfectly. I was very well satisfied. The only down side was there were too few long pieces in the bundle. But this wasn't terrible.

Great product and value.

Bedroom, Dining Room, Family Room, Living Room, Office

The 2 1/4 boards were packaged well, required very little culling and the installation resulted in a beautiful floor that is durable and will require very little maintenance over the years.

 
Superior engineering
By WoodyVerified Reviewer from Maryland on 4/21/2008
Pros:
Easy To Install, No waist
Best Uses:
Bedroom, Everywhere
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I've installed several floors, both prefinished and unfinished. I prefer the seamless quality of an unfinished installation. The flooring I purchased was so well engineered that it required a minimal amount of sanding to achieve a beautiful final product. You do have additional equipment rental costs for finishing, but I live in an older home so it's worth it to me to get a vintage looking floor.

 
Fantastic!
By Engi-Mc-neer from MD on 4/9/2008

Attractive Finish, Easy To Install

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

I installed this myself, interlacing it with 40yr old red oak flooring to provide some patching in worn areas, and had it professionally finished with Streetshoe. Man this matched perfectly with the old stuff and looks great. The price is good and it's so easy to install.

Saved a lot and have beautiful results.
By Richard from the Old SchoolVerified Reviewer from Virginia Beach on 4/3/2008
Pros:
Beautiful color, Great price, Great wood grains
Cons:
Some thinner near end
Best Uses:
Bedroom, Foyer
Describe Yourself:
Do-It-Yourself
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I saved a lot by doing most of the work myself. I paid professionals to nail down the boards and I tore out and disposed of the old flooring, sanded and finished with semi-gloss Varathane Diamond Gloss , and installed the trim. Some boards thinned a little about an inch or so from the end and needed attention with a hand sander to smooth them out enough for finishing. The floors are really beautiful. My wife says I'm "old school", but to me, a sanded and finished wood floor is superior to all others.
