Does not maintain shine
scratches EASILY
Shows wear quickly
Best Uses
Comment:
This product looks great when installed. But, it is very difficult to maintain the clean, polished appearance. Even a slide of a dining chair will cause a scratch that cannot be repaired. Given the negative aspects of this flooring, we would have definitely chosen a different, more durable product.
How long have you owned it:
Three-to-six months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
