    Great flooring!
    Great flooring! Installer said easy to work with. Looks fabulous. Would work in a number of decor styles. I like that it has some variation in it, but overall it is a nice bright option

    French Oak in Stinson- BEAUTIFUL!
    We have looked and purchased several floor samples from the Malibu Wide Plank line and fell in love with Stinson. We were afraid the wood color would be too dark and make the home appear smaller but that wasn't the case. We liked that it didn't have a lot of color variation between planks- we liked the consistency in color and grain throughout the floor. I purchased the 1/2 inch Thick Engineered Hardwood Flooring. We were in a bit of budget so my husband installed the floors in our newly purchased home. It was easy to install just time consuming, particularly in odd corners but that is to be expected. He installed the floors using the nail-down method. We have a toddler at home so we were afraid of scratches and dents but we've had the floor for 2 months now and only have seen 2 small dents from sharp items. We totally recommend this color/floor but suggest adding an area rug if you have a little one that likes to throw their items on the floor. The one thing I dislike is that dirt does get stuck in between the grain but nothing a vacuum can't pick up.

      Gorgeous Floor
      French Oak Rincon 1/2 in. Thick x 7 1/2 in Wide. Absolutley stunning floor. Depending on time of the day makes the floor appear lighter in day and a little bit darker at night. Pictures attached are taken in the evening. Color of the walls is Rock Candy by Sherwin Williams and it goes very well with this flooring. Best part no dust is visible becuase of how light it is. Not shiny at all. Don't hesitate and buy it.

        Beautiful high quality flooring
        Yes it is very pricey, but it is beautiful. Also my husband was able to install it on his own so we saved on labor. The color is the creamy color that I just was looking for.

          Great flooring
          We bought this for our office and was very happy with the result. The flooring was delivered earlier than expected and comes in different sizes. We had very minimal amount of waste and to cut boards to size was very easy. Overall, we are thoroughly pleased with the quality and look.

            Easy installation. Modern look. Durable.
            Very happy with flooring. We receive many compliments on the flooring. Purchased 2000 square feet in 2019 and just bought 1200 to finish the second story of a garage addition we are building. Very happy with the flooring. Also at an affordable price!

              Showroom Addition
              This flooring looks amazing in our commercial lighting showroom. It was used in a commercial setting instead of a residential setting. We absolutely love it, it was very easy to install and even came with trim pieces to transition into carpet. We just installed it but it will receive a lot of traffic. There isn't really anything we don't love about it. Absolutely recommend it.

                Color Differs, but Quality is Good
                Went for the Marshall because we were looking for a natural blonde wood color and that was on sale. It is actually more of an”white washed” color and not particularly subtle. I would say it looks more like the Salt Creek in the pictures, but with perhaps more cool/lavender tones. That said, the quality is very good; it’s just a little more trendy and less classic than I was hoping for

                    Great product, easy to install
                    Got the french oak rincon (7 1/2 engineered hardwood) and installed myself by using both installation methods - staples and glue assist (just to be safe). The floor is solid, no noises, smooth and beautifully modern.

                      French Oak Mavericks - 7 1/2" tongue and groove
                      Great quality and easy to install. We used the staple down method for the 1/2" tongue and groove, which gives the floor a very solid feel. The various sizes allow for very little waste, so we were able to return several boxes. The colors were considerably lighter than the samples we picked up at the store, but we're still happy with the overall look and feel.

                        Marshalls Flooring!!
                        My husband and I ordered a box of *almost* every color. Nothing seemed to look quite like I wanted and we almost went another direction, but we tried one more: a sample of Marshalls. We couldn’t believe how perfect it was. The online coloring is very deceiving. Here are some photos of the flooring. For us, it’s the perfect warmth we wanted for our French country style interior. The photos make it appear just a tad warmer than they are.

                              This is a quality product at an affordable price. Material is a consistent Quality and color with subtle variations that you will find in French oak

                                    We are loving our new floors (French Oak Rincon). I installed 600 sq ft in 3 (10 hour) days. There is some color variation but not more than I would have expected. I nailed the floors to a plywood subfloor. The wide planks made the job go fast.

                                      Nice but inconsistent color
                                      Everyone is complaining about the color difference,.,it’s because it’s true. The manufacturer of this product hasn’t figured out how to replicate batches. We all know with hardwood that there can be variations due to a lot of different factors. However, they are not using the exact same coloring for each batch..it only takes a few millimeters different in coloring to impact final product. Mistake was adding to my original plan for hardwood. Ordered 6 mo apart and now I have diff colored floors.

                                              French Oak Rincon is a top seller with millions of Square Feet purchased by thousands of satisfied customers. The colors should be consistent. A lot of gorgeous natural color variation, please ensure the flooring is installed from numerous cartons at the same time to ensure good color, shade and overall random appearance as you can have lighter and slightly darker planks from this true White Wash visual. The French Oak Rincon Tongue & Groove 1/2” Thick x 7.5” wide x lengths to 74.8" utilizes character graded hardwood to meet our design specifications. This character grade may include naturally occurring cracks, splits, knotholes, mineral streaks, filler for stability, etc. Due to the nature of natural hardwood flooring there can be a difference in samples and the received product due to a variety of issues, including color/tone, naturally occurring character imperfections such as knotholes and mineral streaks, etc, as well as grain orientation. One major influence of how the floor will look is the lighting in your home. Artificial lighting, LED daylight or natural lighting vs. Yellow Halogen/LED will change the color visual of your hardwood vs natural lighting coming through windows. We would like to gather some details from you, pictures, Purchase order #'s etc. For assistance and troubleshooting please call our Home Depot Technical Services department @ 800-928-6168. JasonMWP

I purchased a box of this since I loved the sample in store. Beware— the color of the Mavericks flooring is VERY pink and every single piece was a different color. I am so glad I didn’t purchase a lot of this flooring. I wish I would’ve found a review like this prior to purchasing!

                                                      French Oak Mavericks is a top Seller with millions of square Feet installed. One major influence of how the floor will look is the lighting in your home. Artificial lighting, LED daylight or natural lighting vs. Yellow Halogen/LED will change the color visual of your hardwood vs natural lighting coming through windows. The Malibu Wide Plank French Oak Mavericks is a character grade visual featuring which adds to the gorgeous character in every plank. The artificial lighting in your home can be one of the major influences on the color of your floor. Much the same way a can of paint applied to two different rooms (one that receives limited natural light and another that's flooded with sunshine) will look different, your flooring will have a different appearance depending on the lighting in your home. And because natural light changes in intensity, the time of day will also have an impact on the way your flooring looks. Since this flooring was installed below grade in a basement which may or may not have natural daylight shining in the lighting could be influencing the color. Incandescent and soft white fluorescent bulbs intensify warm colors but tend to fade cooler colors, while halogen and full-spectrum fluorescent bulbs most closely mimic the bright light of natural sunlight. Bright colors look best in bright white LED, fluorescent or halogen bulbs. Darker colors and rich textures tend to look best under accent lights and duller bulbs. Suggest experimenting with different lighting options and the pink may go away. Halo makes a great LED 6" Can retrofit with 5 Selectable temperatures from 2700-5000k. All Malibu Wide Plank Hardwood Flooring is natural, sustainable, renewable and recyclable and the flooring of choice among the majority of homeowners. Review all room scenes and pictures attached to each product. The E-commerce sized samples are 5" x 7" and relatively small in size so sometimes challenging to view the true color as there is beautiful color range and variation in the French Oak Sliced face veneers. Suggest ordering several samples as the color range can be viewed in a large room scene image featuring 400+sf of installed hardwood vs a small sample. JasonMWP
