Is there even still one available?
I am specifically talking about engineered hardwood flooring, not solid hardwood.
Basically, it consists of two layers of wood as the base and a thin wear layer on top.
Laminate, on the other hand, has a substrate made of particleboard, a decorative layer, and a protective coating.
As a non-expert, I currently see more advantages with laminate because it requires less maintenance.
So, what really speaks in favor of engineered hardwood flooring, besides the fact that it is real wood and not a printed design?
