Learn about the manufacturers we are proud to represent in Arizona.Ī contemporary update to the look of wood. it's all relative (IMHO).The natural beauty of hardwood flooring, timeless classic in durability with a modern, sustainable, approach. I'd like to think that the hickory flooring we've provided doesn't "seem cheap". one is setting themselves up for likely disappointment. If a low price is the driving force behind the decision-making process. but some decisions simply shouldn't be considered on a "lowest cost" basis. I sympathize with folks who have to consider their budget. but WITH FLOORING, even the cheap stuff represents a sizeable investment. That concept may work well with laptops & printers. which is often overlooked in our modern."planned obsolescence, use it then toss it" frame of mind. Hardwood flooring is something that should be a long term proposition. Some of those benefits include: general peace of mind & confidence, the ability to refinish if desired, longer lasting performance and the probability that the selection will have a more "timeless" effect. The benefit of considering a higher quality product, is that the customer is afforded MANY advantages that aren't available in the "junk-in-the-box" variety of flooring (even if it's slightly higher in cost- but within reason, of course). The advantage of "dumpster diving" for cheap imported or "liquidator" type flooring is that with any luck, the consumer won't feel the "sting" too badly if/when the product fails. Unfortunately the quality of products on the market today correspond in relation to what they cost, in most cases. flooring is a decision that should be considered in depth because it needs to PERFORM as well as look good. ![]() As I try to suggest (frequently) here on Houzz & elsewhere. you may be closer to the truth than you realize. When you suggest that the "hickory" you saw "seemed cheap". depending on the PRODUCT & by who/where it was manufactured can make ALL of the difference in the world. The harsh reality of considering hardwood flooring at all, is the fact that. The Artisan comes with only TWO (2) coats of AO and there rest are traditional polyurethane. There are many manufacturers who HAVE the same warranty restrictions.and there are many, many, many more who do NOT.Īnd just to be clear.the Johnston floor has a BETTER finish! It has 11 layers of Aluminum oxide (all 11 layers contain AO). The warranty is VOID if you purchase on-line or from anyone else! Again, that's an interesting flag. But the signs are there.Īnd just for fun, they have only TWO Official Retail Partners - both in Texas. This is a guess, because there is a suspicious lack of information on the website.I would take a stab in the dark that the manufacturer is in China. Guess which MASSIVE foreign export country is closest to the west coast. That is a MASSIVE GIVE AWAY that the people who manufacturer this product are from elsewhere. I've seen this before because I've worked for people who use language in this way. Traditionally we do say "Finish" not "12 UV Coatings" as stated on this page: Ī native English speaker would use "12 coats of." and not 12 coatings. The website has worked with someone who is proficient with English but not a native speaker. I've WORKED for people with this attribute before. OK.so here's what I have deduced after reading the website: the website was written by a someone who's first language is NOT English.
