Whoops, that's supposed to be natural cavern oak.

We did install it and have been living with it now for around 6 months. we are very happy with it. there are a few things i would note: * We had our stairs sanded and re-stained, it was not possible to get a good match with the color of the floor since its a mix of brown/grey and has white grain. there were no stair molding pieces for sale at the time we purchased, and we're not happy with the final result so are looking at options to address. We will either see if we can get moldings somewhere else, or re-do the stairs in more of a contrast color. * in a couple of spots the subfloor must have been slightly uneven. On those spots, since its a floating floor (not nailed or glued down) you can feel the gap when you walk over it. we consider this pretty minor as its only in 2 very small areas and isn't that noticeable, but definitely discuss this with installer and ensure they will check the floor thoroughly. We did not go with an underlayment, this might have helped, not sure. apart from those points, we love it. I've dropped a cast iron pan on it and its just bounces off, no scratches/dents or anything! we have pets and it stands up well to their paws also. Installation was super quick (when negotiating with installers push for a good rate since this is installed on top of existing flooring and its design to easily connect to the other pieces - so very low level of effort to install vs. any other type of floor). attached a few pictures to generally show the finished result and also highlight the stair issue i mentioned. happy to answer any other questions folks may have!

I just purchased the LVP NuCore form the F&D. The installers started to put the floor down but it was breaking. This is a common theme with tis product. I believe it is because it is so rigid/brittle. I tried to take it back to the F&D but they stated behind the product and said that installers made a mistake when putting floor in. I lost about $1500 with F&D as even though it was bad product they didn't take the opened box back. It was so frustrating since the workers lost time installing the floor and then taking it down. I was very disappointed with customer service. I will try to contact NuCore directly about this product. Just FYI few boxes were ok, but a lot of them were breaking. they also packed couple of boxes broken in half.

look at the paradigm conquest. it has embossed in register feature (wood textured surface, not high shine flat surface) and 12-14 unique boards. it looks more realistic than other lines.
