"Never looks clean"
I have luxury vinyl planks. It slides. And never looks clean. It looks great after mopping till someone walks on it. Even with clean feet. I have tried what the floor company gave me and bought several hundreds of dollars of other products, but nothing helps. Even a drop of water makes a spot. Hate it and I'm really sad because I wanted a pretty floor and got this!

Review:
"Horrible Floors! Horrible company"
Do not waste your money or time! My house is only 4 years old and these floors cannot withstand kids, pets, or any type of water spill no matter how small. Walking in from snow, better walk on air. These floors buckle, planks are sliding soon bad that my husband almost injured himself. These floors cannot buckle at the site of water, you can barely clean them. I was told by Shaw that it was my fault when they came out to inspect the floors so I could get them replaced. The warranty states they are water soluble but they are not! And Shaw will not help you to replace them at all! I will never go with another Shaw product. This is a new home and I have to replace floors after 4 years. I only have 1 pet. I would never get or recommend this product to anyone. The planks slide and if you have kids that is dangerous. Do not waste your time.

Review:
"So unhappy"
We did our entire downstairs including the kitchen in their high gloss laminate. In retrospect, I should have known there would be trouble when we had to have the installer back the next day to pound down some "bubbles." After a year I am left with a horrible looking floor in the kitchen because any moisture has caused bubbling at the seams. The boards haven't lifted but there seems to be a hair-thin layer that has lifted up. Let me say that I have had other brand laminate floors in my kitchen and have always loved the fact that nothing seemed to hurt them. Not so with my Shaw floor. I hate it with a passion and can't wait to replace it. It's a shame--it looks great in the rest of the house and there are no scratches, but the kitchen is mess.

Review:
"LVT, Versa Loc"
This was professionally measured & installed. We have 2 boxes left over. As I was out of town during installation, my first impression when I walked in the door was it looked scuffed, dusty looking, dull. I tried washing it & they gave me a cleaner @ the flooring store, Still looks dull! I also can see nail? Pops underneath. I hate it, plain & simple! Depresses me just to look at it!

Review:
"Scratched from furniture + other issues."
Looked great for about 10 minutes, upon putting the furniture back it already scratched. Also at least a third of the box was chipped and or broken as it come out. This is near impossible to keep clean, it showed foot prints and everything. Now it is coming apart where they snap together, we even went the extra step of sealing the floor and using the under pad. When I called about the warranty I am instructed to go where I purchased the product which seems fair. Only the place I purchased does not seem to have a record of my purchase. I have receipts in hand and will go give it a try. I would certainly never purchase this product again. We have since purchased a better product for two other rooms at 1/2 the price.

Review:
"Shaw Versa Lock Vinyl Plank Flooring"
I bought enough planks to cover approx. 900 sq. Ft. Have much remodeling experience, but did the research on installation. So far, I have installed in 1 room 3 times, the remainder of the house 2 times. Looks good initially, but after 1 week, planks start to separate. I would not recommend this product to anyone, as the instructions are misleading and the results are poor.

"Shaw looks good but is not good"
My dog had one accident and that section of floor is ruined. It buckles everywhere and is hard to clean/ Never use this flooring I only wish I had read the reviews first. I would never buy it again.

Review:
"Has only been one week see a gap"
We installed 300 square feet of this product on our basement floor (cement). Ours did not lock together with "very little force" as stated in the installation guidelines. It was very difficult to interlock and to keep it interlocked. It cannot be cut with a utility knife, as stated in the installation guidelines. It can be "scored" with a utility knife and snapped off for length or width. To cut details around door jambs, you must use snips. I would not use this product again.

Review:
"Never, ever buy Shaw"
If you use their laminate on an office floor, you'll be sorry! I had their laminate installed in my home office. Not long after, it started to come apart. Their 25 year warranty is a sham, because the use of chairs with castors is specifically excluded from the warranty. The only solution offered is to replace the broken boards, ourselves. I would never buy anything made by Shaw again. Poor quality, poor customer service.
