We are going to be building a new house soon. We found flooret online and ordered samples. My son was given the task of “testing” the durability of the samples. Telling a 15 yr old to test something for durability is a green light for destruction. He took a huge hammer to the samples. We were surprised at the damage he inflicted. The head of the hammer did little damage. The claw did damage but not nearly as bad as I thought it would. He also dropped a pair of needle nose pliers from about 4 feet. Again, minimal damage. We will definitely be installing this flooring in our new house!
