We found this product to be better than expected. I was in the market for a VPL flooring and had picked out a product at Lowe's called SmartCore. It was priced approximately $4.29 per sqft. While shopping at Sam's I came across the SpillDefense flooring that was significantly priced cheaper but it did not give up on quality. We selected the Barnwood product and purchased 100 boxes at $23 for 12 sqft. The flooring looks natural and was easy to install that included basic wood cutting. The flooring is solid at 14mm thick and is easy to snap in place and only required basic flooring tools such as a rubber mallet.

This flooring was fast and easy to put down and I’ve done a few. Make sure you buy an install kit with the block, pull bar and spacers (about $20) and you should use a rubber mallet. The thickness is great for making floor quieter to walk on. Not sure how good it will be in high traffic areas since the top surface is very thin.

We looked around for hardwood for a while and no one beat Sam’s Club price. The quality is amazing. We picked barnwood. From what we saw in the store. I ordered 72 boxes and they were on a pallet which made loading quick they put right onto my trailer. We had them professionally installed and they came out amazing. So far we are really happy with them. We read other reviews that mentioned they hold up well to big dogs. We have a Great Pyrenees so far no issues.

We have older dogs so we purchased this product months ago for our master bedroom. Then we fell in love with it so much that we decided to rip up our old laminate flooring and put this flooring down through out the entire house. Looks like real wood floors. And the fact that it is 24 hrs. water proof, well that is just a bonus with children & animals.

Nice and thick, color matched our needs better than many other places we looked, nice to have the padding already on it, easy end snap makes it fast to put down and locks firmly with no gaps. Just put it down a couple weeks ago. So far so good. Easy open packages too. Definitly good stuff at a cheaper price than less quality flooring. Highly recommend. Ive put down at least 10 types of laminate and this is my favorite so far.

Although more difficult to install in tight locations than other plank laminates and vinyls I've used, the quality is far superior and trumps the minor challenges I encountered. Bottom Line: This is an outstanding high-quality product...you won't be sorry when you've finish the job and see the excellent results.

I'm just now starting the install. Seems like a quality product and goes together easily. Really cuts like a dream with both a 10 inch miter saw and scrolling saw. Looks just as good as the photos. Beautiful finish. For the price at Sam's, it's a steal.

Seems to be a good solid product. We liked the thickness of it and felt more solid than the thinner products we looked at. We hired someone to lay it and are very glad we did since going around corners and getting up next to the wall with the correct side was a bit challenging. We definitely love the look of the flooring and feel like it will match whatever we put in those rooms. Haven't totally finished putting trim on top and moving furniture back in to the bedrooms, but we plan to continue this flooring throughout the den and other living areas.

I installed this in my basement over a concrete floor. It is easy to work with and looks great. Definitely waterproof if you seal around the edges with silicone. The door in my walkout basement was open when it started raining shortly after I laid the floor. Fortunately, I had already put a bead of silicone down by the door and was able to simply wipe up the water. The only negative is not about the product but the trim pieces available. I would love to put this on my stairs leading to the basement, but I cannot find a stair nose to do so and the only trim available comes in a package so you have to buy pieces you don’t need to get the ones you do need.

Final outcome was great, but installation was challenging. We’ve installed flooring in the past with no challenges, but this was difficult to get the pieces to fit together without a lot of manual persuasion. It also damaged easily when using the flooring tools. This resulted in having to order more flooring even after adding 10% more as recommended. We did the entire 2nd floor of our house. We also did stairs and chose this particular product because it had stair nose moldings. The stair nose color was slightly different from the actual flooring. In the end we’re satisfied but not thrilled.
