Built-In Quiet & Comfort:
Every plank arrives with ComfortWalk antimicrobial underlayment, muffling footfall and adding warmth over concrete or existing hard surfaces.

Authentic Wood Visuals:
Hand crafted, High-definition décor film and realistic grain embossing span 10 unique pattern faces per style, minimizing plank repetition even in open floor plans.

Dry sweep or vacuum; damp-mop with pH-neutral laminate cleaner. Avoid steam mops to preserve warranty.

Warranty Coverage:
