what's a good brand for hardwood floor, laminate and engineering wood?

Answer 1

Don't go laminate or any of that crap. Get the real mccoy, in 3/4 oak. I did our floor in some of the best stuff on the market, 3/4 inch oak. I don't unfortunately, remember the company's name. Started with an "E". 4 months later we sold that house, I didn't know I was going to be selling it. I think I actually recouped that money I spent (did the labor myself) on that floor because that room was KILLER LOVELY. I kept samples of that flooring on the table for prospective buyers to inspect. It was a real selling point.

Answer 2

Bruce is a good brand of flooring products, and they carry solid wood too. They carry a variety of prefinished flooring product, that would save you a lot of time on installation.

Pergo is gaining recognition as a laminated floor manufacturer, but honestly, Ive seen other product at Lowe's that was just as good, and cost less...
