Good Product Teak Color
Easy to use, stagger plank so joint is not next to one another. start from the longest wall from left to right. 2nd time I purchased the grip strip and went with the Teak color. Looks great in our family room next to hardwood floors in the kitchen. Went with an opposite color so it doesn't look like I'm trying to match. I'm a 61 year old woman and did a 14 x 15 room in 2 days. Use kneepads and a tile cutter, tile sheers for odd cuts. Slippery for dogs but a runner/rug will solve that issue.

    One Year Later, Still Beautiful
    Used this flooring in my entire mobile home. Still looks gorgeous and intact after one year. Easy to install, even for newbies. Laid over wood floor, no underlayment needed. Note using underlayment voids the 25-year warranty. Damp or dust mop is all that's needed to keep clean. Waterproof - Spills wipe up quickly with no damage. Looks beautiful!

      Looks awful and pulls apart
      They look awful and need replacing, even though they're almost new. We installed 100% according to the directions: time to acclimate, QuietWalks underlayment, expansion gaps, used a heavy roller after laying each section, our foundation is level. And my husband used to work in construction, so this was no novice error. After a month the floors began pulling apart at both long and short edges. The worst is under our rolling desk chair, where the planks sometimes completely pop up! Such a scam.

        Don't waste your time, effort and money on this flooring
        The flooring was professionaly installed, and prior to installation all the rooms had been leveled with Self-Leveling underlayment. Now after only 2 weeks the flooring is coming up on the seams. The guys used a weighted roller on the seams, like the installation manual calls for, but obviously this was useless... I wasted thousands of dollars on this floor. Now I can rip everything back out and buy a different one.... This is absolutely ridiculous.

          DIY easy install
          We are prepping our house to sell. This flooring was incredibly easy to install as mine and my husband’s first time laying flooring. Just needed a utility knife, pliers for the small pieces, hand roller and rented a 100 pound roller from our closest hardware store after it was all finished. It looks beautiful in our kitchen and dining room. Very happy with this purchase.

            Super easy, barely an inconvenience.
            Super easy to install. My first time installing floor and after a few youtube videos, I still wasnt terribly confident. Could have done a little more prep work in making the floor level, but its just a spare room in the basement that had bad carpet from a recent flood. Very thin so it slid right under the existing floor moulding and i just picked up some white moulding to clear the seams since quarter round wasn't tall enough to cover the gap from the floor to the existing moulding. All i needed to install the flooring was a razor blade and soft headed hammer. Then some finishing nails, hammer and saw for the moulding. Definitely getting this style flooring for future projects. So far holding up well after a few weeks of furniture and office chair movement. My dogs nails dont seem to be scuffing anything from what I can tell. Can't beat it for the money.

            Awful
            This floor looked fantastic for about a year. Then it looks like an earthquake happened (live in Florida) and the cracks appeared. Trying to figure out how to fill in the gaps. Will NEVER purchase again. The product seems to be of quality, however, does not get good ranking due to separation of seams.

              They keep popping up.
              It looked great for a day or two then my wife and I noticed that they were coming up here and there. What a waste of money. We’ll probably have to cover the areas with rugs or furniture. If you buy this stuff you make sure you follow directions to a t so you can file a warranty claim.

                Low profile,waterproof,pet friendly,easy to clean!
                I used this product in the past out of necessity (needed something low profile enough to work under stairwell) It might cost more per SF compared to other products but I love it! There are plenty of styles to chose from, easy to clean, pet friendly, scuff and scratch resistant, easy enough installation (just take your time starting off and take a little more time staggering the planks) Overall it's a practical product!

                  DO NOT BUY
                  This looks beautiful... at first. The glue is bad, and the pieces popped up right away. Then they popped up overlapping and cannot be put back down. It was installed by a contractor and according to directions. The product is also brittle and the contractor had many pieces break and barely had enough to cover even with the extra allowance. Six hundred fifty wasted. I can't believe all these good reviews- maybe they are installing on concrete that doesn't change temp much, or maybe they just loved it at first and then the terrible disappointment happened. DO NOT BUY THIS

                    Easiest floor to install
                    I installed this in my laundry room and it looks great. So easy to install using only a speed square, razor blade, and tin snips (and an erasable marker to mark cut lines). This was put on top of existing wide grout tile and you can't see any of the grout lines. It's much softer and warmer to walk on than the tile. It did scratch a little when installing a cabinet, but you can't see it unless you're looking for it. It's a great price, I'll be installing it in the adjoining room.

                      Large Gaps, denied warranty claim.
                      This floor look great for about two months. We've been getting large gaps for the last 6 months now. We had this installed by our contractor to make sure it was installed correctly. We filed a claim with the warranty company and they denied it. They said it was the installation that was the problem. But bases on the reviews it's clearly this product.

                        Our go-to standard for all of our rental houses.
                        We have this installed in multiple rental properties. The color hides dirt, scratches, and goes with everything (a blend of grey and brown tones.)

                        Look beautiful
                        This flooring came out beautiful. Our contractor never used the grid lock style before but he liked working with it a lot. Only downside is they WILL scratch and scuff when heavy furniture is moved across them so beware.

                          Terrible product
                          Used Traffic Master throughout the entire house. The color started coming off within 2 years. I now have large white spots in two areas. The warranty does not cover labor to replace the floor either.

                            Beautiful Flooring
                            I put these floors down in my manufactured home and they are absolutely beautiful! I have gotten a number of compliments on them; my only complaint is that they can easily be scratched up. So, buy padding for all of your furniture!

                              Great flooring for less!
                              Really liked the flooring. It cuts and breaks evenly and lays down very easily. This is a stick to itself floating system. I wanted floating and decided on this versus the click together type. It was half the price of the click together type. I will say it's not a super natural wood looking material. Regardless it still looks great!

                              Poor Quality
                              I purchased $5000 worth of this flooring when we were building. It has stated to come up in all of the dry areas, the wet areas seem to have adhered better, but the advertised scratch resistance is a joke.
