Laminate is also longer lasting No brainier mate

If you go for the click-fit option, rather than glue/nail down, you can even take it with you if/when you move
Most certainly not European. |

That's a thought? and probably easier to lay and take up ?

The better clicklock is the one with the bevelled edge. Doesnt show if joints have separated a little.

I have engineered Oak solid wood floating floor. Over ten grand's worth downstairs. I can state categorically, I would have been just as happy with a mid price laminate. Edited by ASCPFC (03 Oct 2020 4.50pm)

And a little richer Too right. Basically the issue with the engineered Oak is that it looks like a laminate but costs a bomb.
