If you are asking about "Does it look too busy?" then I'm assuming you are already cringing at your decision. Only you can decide whether or not you can "handle" this floor. Your floor will look rustic. The heavy mineral streaks and the knots will ensure you have a country/rustic feel in the home. Right now this is the "trend". If you are going for trendy, then this floor is fine. If you were attempting "timeless classic" then you may have missed the boat. Without knowing your style and knowing your tolerance, no one can tell you if your floor is too busy. Personally I LOVE movement. The more the merrier. Character grade hickory or white oak makes me SUPER happy! I LOVE big chunks of colour. It makes my heart sing. Which means I'm the LAST person who can tell you if your floor is "too busy". But if you are already asking the question after one box, then I think you may need to ask yourself WHY you are asking the question. What is it inside you that is making you rethink your decision?

Check out BuildDirect bankruptcy protection. It is quite illuminating. And they are based in Canada...which means if you have an issue and wish to seek legal action, you need to file in Canada (British Columbia to be precise...which is where their head quarters are).

1 bought a Bosch dishwasher from them and they claim they are authorized. I currently have a request in with Bosch to see if they are "authorized." We'll see.

Did you end up getting it? I’m looking into too but can’t find any reviews
