Coretec Plus vs. Pro Plus

6 years ago

Can anyone comment on how these 2 versions of Coretec stack up? Pro Plus is a little thinner and cheaper. I am wondering if for a residence one can feel the difference and if the Plus is worth the extra money.

I spoke to Coretec. The Pro Plus is supposed to be more durable actually. There's a tiny drop less cork, but the core is supposed to be more durable, despite being thinner. The reason it's cheaper is that design-wise it looks a little more "fake" looking than the Plus (Plus has more of a wood look). But definitely saved me some money, my space was 800-900 square feet.

I’m wondering the same question. Did you ever get an answer? Which product did you go with and are you happy with it? Thanks!

I went with the Bristol Oak Pro Plus. It's mostly installed but the project isn't finished yet. It looks nice, hope I made the right choice!

6 mil. I’ve decided to go with COREtec Pro Plus with the higher wear layer. We should be installing in about 2 weeks.

I just looked at my receipt and it says: CORETEC PRO PLUS - 7-1/4"X48 So I guess it's not the enhanced version. What are the flooring places saying "enhanced" means? Enhanced wear layer, something about the color?

Hi folks, I am thinking of installing one of these products in my 2nd floor 3 bedrooms and hallways Coretec Plus, Adura Max or Armstrong Luxe. We are a family of 4 (2 young kids (5 and 7), and 2 adults). My main concerns are denting, scratching and sound. Which of the 3 would you recommend or rank in order? Also, would you advise of an additional underlayment to dampen or absorb any sound? Or will the attached product underlayment suffice, in your opinions? Thanks!

Great! Thank you for responding. That’s the exact one we were looking at- the Pro plus hickory or the plus red river. We’ll probably just go with the Pro Plus. It definitely saves money. Hopefully it will be durable!

Erin could you also please message me where you got the cortec pro plus. I really like the fact that the cortec pro plus is a SPC product which theoretically is more durable than the regular cortec plus. Has anyone installed the cortec pro plus enhanced which i believe is a higher definition product? My wife really likes the cortec plus XL but I am concerned about the durability. Does anyone know if USFloors will make a cortec pro plus enhance XL?

Hi. I don’t see a way to message you. In the settings, you may have to adjust your preferences. Send me a message and then I’ll reach out that way. We begin installation of our pro plus today.

I’m bummed. I was able to dent the Corerec Peo Plus just like every other WPC and vinyl topped product. :(

They don't claim to be dent-proof, just more resistant to denting than the Plus.

True. I thought it would dent less than regular WPC. There is another SPC product that dents a lot less. My kids are not very gentle with floors, and I prefer to install vinyl plank instead of tile. So, I need to find as durable product as I can.

How do you all like your different coretec products now? I am looking to purchase soon. Would be interested in how it wears and feels after several months. Thank you

The Pro Plus has held up pretty decently. I got a dark color, so it does show scratches a bit more easily than I would have liked.

I wanted to also see how you all are liking Coretec after having it a few years. Would you recommend it and did you get Pro or a Pro Plus? Thank you.

I bought Coretec Plus XL three years ago and still love it. Very durable. Easy to clean. Hasn't dented or scratched from what I can tell. Movers even dropped aawhenit piano on it and didn't dent.
