I love it so do everyone who sees it. The last I put down was carbonized stranded bamboo and its awesome. It is some tough shit, about 1 out of 4 or 5 staples just wadded up when I was stapling it down. in fact removing those staples was what took the longest time in the whole span of installing it. I used the staple gun that they recommended to use for installing it too. It drives the stapples in the top of the tongue at about a 45 degree angle back under the boards. awesome set up.
