Lumber Liquidators

It took about 1 1/2 months to finally receive the full order and the store had a great deal of difficulty providing updates on when the full order would arrive. The information they provide state "Bamboo hardness can be compared to that of heart pine and maple, vertical styles are harder than horizontal and strand harder than vertical." In addition to their rating, they also provide many glowing reviews online, so I purchased vertical bamboo thinking it would be a hard durable surface. The floor has been quickly covered with scratches from our dog. The 35+ year old oak floors elsewhere in the house stand up MUCH better to the dog. I tried to submit a review of the material to the LL reviews website. I indicated that the floor is not a good choice for a house with a dog, thinking this would be a valuable lesson for other homeowners with dogs. They refused to post my review, it seems they only post the glowing product reviews. Relying on LL's website reviews and information proved to be very misleading and steered me to the wrong product. Had they allowed other unsatisfied owners to post reviews I would have looked for a more suitable product and they would have ended up with a more satisfied customer. The end result is that they do have low prices, but you must do your own independent homework before shopping with them.
