Review:
"Order Much More Than Needed - Much Is Unuseable"
1. Inspect every piece out of the box prior to installing. 14% (3 of 21 boxes) could not be used due to cracks, splits, minimal tongue, poor machining, much wider/thinner ends, rough edges (guaranteed splinters), etc. I purchased 20% more than necessary. Some problems will not surface until you are nailing. - prepare to remove some boards as you are nailing.
2. Follow manufacturers directions regarding moisture of flooring and sub-floor. Time in the home is not accurate! Buy a pin type moisture gauge (about $30 on Amazon)! Buy a flooring jack too - Amazon $35.
3. Again - sort and re-sort. Do not install directly from the boxes as this is not high grade product. Should possibly be labeled "Tavern" grade.

"Do not buy this product"
Locking mechanism is insufficient. Started coming apart before we even finished putting it down. Floor does not feel solid underfoot. I ended up taking it back and replacing it with a Pergo product for the same price. Pergo quality is much better. I little more work to install, but it feels much more solid. Don't waste your time and money on this product.

"Floors of distinction are distinctly low quality"
After spending significant time and money on floor prep and quality underlayment my floor still sound like rice crispys when walked on. It also scratches easily.

"I love this flooring"
If this flooring is installed right it will last forever. I installed this flooring over 2 years ago. I installed it with a professional nail gun using 2" cleats and it's it looks like it is brand new.

"Hardwood dissatisfied"
I just wanted to warn any one thinking of getting there floors from Mernards. I bought super fast hardwood and couldn't be more dissatisfied. I have cracked peices everywhere. It pops and moves up to a half inch. And when we called them they payed a flooring inspector to come look at it. He said that it was there flooring splitting. Said they would fix the 12 peices that broken an split. Only to get a letter back saying they denied the claim. Floors only 3 months old. Will not buy anything from Mernards ever again.

"Tarket Laminate"
The rep at Menards should have warned me about the laminate flooring I purchased. I bought my flooring at Menards. Its was Tarket oak laminate its has damage everywhere from minor spills after just 12 months (I might add were wiped up immediately). If I had known this stuff was like paper and so little moisture would lift it up and damage it I would have gone with another flooring. The person that sold it to me $1500 did not mention anything about it and did not offer a water proof alternative. I'm pissed and if anyone out there has a class action law suit going I'm in!

"Don't go by manufacturer's install instructions"
I would give this flooring five stars if it weren't for the shrinkage that occurs. We've had this flooring for almost five years. Installation is easy, floor is quiet (used quiet underlayment), floor is holding up well except for when you drop a screw driver or other sharp heavy objects. We love the look of the floor, but now we need to replace all our molding to get something thicker as we have a large gap all around the perimeter (note: we also have quarter-round installed!). Mfr says to leave a 5/8" gap during install with wood at room temperature. Don't do that! You don't need that large of a gap. I will say there is more shrinkage width-wise, then there is length-wise for the boards. I put in a riser floor trim from next room and there is a half-inch gap now as the riser doesn't attach to the boards and is fastened to the floor. The rest of the floor is free-floating. I don't know how the one person had any buckling unless they have a different product altogether.

Review:
"Looks good easy to install"
The flooring is real wood sizes do vary patterns are all different and color does vary. The flooring was easy to install. We were a little worried about other reviews we saw that the product would shrink, which is normal with real wood. To minimize this we used liquid nails to glue each piece to the subfloor along with a few brad nails on the tongue to hold in place while glue set. So far we haven't seen any abnormal scratches from dog nails or normal use.
