Anderson, Shaw or Regal Hardwoods engineered floors
Comments (11)@sundropsandsage I love my floors. The Sequoia Hickory is dark but has some light tones in it too. Looks great against our paint color and the white cabinets We chose the Shaw epic engineered wood which was not very expensive. We have only had it installed for short while . We have a few problems but this is due to installation. We did call Our dealer as soon as we noticed a few spots we thought were problems . We had a floor inspector out shortly after. There are a few boards that are definitely a problem with manufacturing but we had 2 boxes left over - installers could have easily installed a different board. Waiting to see what Shaw’s response is once they receive inspectors report. I don’t know how well this floor will hold up - I think maybe we should have gone with a better quality floor but hoping we don’t have any problems. Whatever you choose - I am sure you know this - but make sure you have a qualified installer....See MoreAnderson Tuftex. Good quality engineered hardwood?
Comments (2)I saw Tuftex Noble Hall in someone's home. It was pretty. But it was a new build. I looked and couldn't find the wear layer. Most say you want 4mm, minimum of 3mm. And I see it's been made in China. I know the prices are all over the place but seems like you can get some for around $5/sf....See MorePurrfection by Anderson Tuftex on stairs?

Comments (4)The Shaw thickness (3/8") is questionable. The gold standard is 3/4" (solid or engineered...doesn't matter). I didn't find information on the wear layer...but a 'good' engineered hardwood should have 3mm (1/8") of wear layer (the top wood layer). It is almost impossible for a 3/8" hardwood to have 33% of it's thickness (1/8") going to wear layer. And this floor has HEAVY hand scraping which is pretty much 'out of style' right now. In Canada the product is selling for $7.50/sf. Not bad but I would expect a WHOLE BUNCH MORE for the $7/sf range. Normally we see this thickness for sale for $4.99/sf at Home Depot. And remember: subfloor preparation is EVERYTHING. If you are removing carpet, then be prepared to spend $2-$4/sf on subfloor preparation. Your budget for the total job should be over $10/sf....See MoreJill Hilts
