good value for oak

Good value, full stop. I priced up the oak in a few places and this was the cheapest by a fair margin for the same finish. Ordering was quick and the checkout didn't try to upsell me on anything. Boards came well packed and I've had no complaints about the quality so far. For a bedroom job where I wasn't paying for a name, it's exactly what I wanted.

needed a cheap fix for the hall

We needed to sort out the hall floor before my mum moved in with us, and the old carpet had to go. I looked at a few places first, including two big DIY chains and a flooring shop in town, and this was the cheapest for the same engineered oak. The boards were easy to order and the site told me exactly what I needed, so I went with it.

Way cheaper than the big chains

Way cheaper than the big chains I looked at, same kind of oak for less. Ordered on my phone in about five minutes. Turned up quick and boards were all there.

the oak we went with for the bedroom

We went with the oak for the main bedroom, which we've been meaning to do for years. I've been buying bits from this site since they started and the quality has stayed consistent. The boards arrived well packed and the fitter said they were easy to work with.

The price per box was the big draw

The price per box was noticeably lower than the other sites I had open, which is what made me pick them in the end. I'd compared three or four options over a couple of evenings and this one came out on top for the oak finish. Checkout was quick and I got a confirmation straight away.

Compared it with the supermarket option

I compared it with the supermarket flooring first, which was a little cheaper but the boards looked thinner to me. This site felt more substantial and the ordering was clear enough, with the delivery date shown before I paid. The boards went down nicely and my husband is pleased with the result.

Cheaper than the other sites I checked

Checked a few other sites and this was cheaper than most of them for the same oak look. Ordered late on my phone, the checkout was quick enough though it kept timing out once. Boards came two days later, all good.

Decent boards but a bit of a fight

Honestly these are decent engineered boards for the money, I've laid a fair bit of flooring over the years and the finish is good. The problem was the click joints, a few boards needed a bit of persuading and I had to get the tapping block out. Delivery was on time and the rest of the order was fine, just don't expect them to fit perfectly out of the box.

good value but delivery was slow

The boards are good value for what you pay and the price was the reason I ordered. Delivery took a bit longer than the date they gave me, about four extra days, which was annoying when the fitter was waiting. Nobody emailed to say it was late. Otherwise the order was simple.

Better than the shop down the road

I did compare it with the flooring shop in town, which was rather dearer, and I thought I'd take a chance on the online option. The ordering was straightforward and the customer team answered my questions about underlay politely and quickly. The boards arrived well packed and I'm very pleased with how the lounge looks now.

bought the grey oak

Bought the grey oak boards for the spare room, ordered Tuesday and they came Friday. Packaging was fine, no damage. Colour looks like the photos. Easy checkout on the phone.

Ordered the oak for the hall

I ordered the oak for the hall and the stairs landing, which had been worn for years. Everything was laid out clearly on the site and I could check the sizes before paying. The delivery was prompt and the boards were well wrapped, so no damage at all.

Second lot of oak for the lounge

I bought the oak boards for the lounge, my second order with them after the first lot for the dining room. Same as before, the price was fair and the order went through without any problem. The boards came on time and looked just like they did last time. I've been using them for years now.

really pleased with the whole thing

Really pleased with the whole thing, this was my first time ordering flooring online and I was a bit worried about it. The site walked me through choosing underlay and the order summary was clear. The boards came well packed and the finish is lovely in the lounge, I'd happily go back for more.

needed to refloor the conservatory

We needed to refloor the conservatory after the old laminate started lifting, and the damp had been a problem for a while. I'd been advised to look for a product suited to that sort of room, so I asked about it before ordering. The advice was sound and the boards have held up well through the winter so far.

Needed a quick replacement for a kitchen

We needed to replace a warped section of kitchen floor after a leak, so I knew roughly what width and finish I wanted before I started looking. I'd used flooring suppliers before and I checked the spec sheets against what this site listed. Everything matched, the boards were acclimatised and the finish was even, so the repair blended in well.

Needed it for the nursery

We needed something durable for the nursery floor because the baby is crawling now and I wanted it hard wearing. I've bought from this site twice before, so I knew the boards were good. The order took a day longer to arrive than the site said, but the customer service team kept me updated by email and it was fine in the end.

Not bad but took ages to sort out

The boards are fine and I'm happy with the finish, but the first lot arrived with a few boards slightly chipped on the edge. Getting a replacement sorted took a while, a couple of emails and a wait of about a week before the new ones came. It did get sorted in the end but it was more hassle than I'd like.

A sensible choice for the sitting room

I was rather pleased to find the flooring listed with its full specification, as I had wanted to check the thickness before committing. The boards arrived well wrapped and in good order, and the delivery driver was courteous and patient with the stairs. I would say it is a sensible choice for a family sitting room. The staff on the telephone were helpful when I rang about the underlay.
