Hello everyone,
We fell in love with a country-style plank at an exhibition, Steirer, brushed knotty oak with a matte lacquer finish.
It is a 3-layer engineered wood floor, 14mm (0.55 inches) thick, with a 3.6mm (0.14 inches) wear layer.
However, it costs almost €80/m² (about $80/10.8 sq ft).
I have looked around a bit and there are other manufacturers as well – for example, T&W Boston country-style planks in oak, brushed with a matte lacquered surface.
A comparable engineered wood plank costs nearly €50/m² (about $50/10.8 sq ft), also 3-layer, not MDF but softwood backing like the Steirer, with a 4mm (0.16 inches) wear layer.
The only downside is that it has no 4-sided bevel, only 2-sided.
I still need to see the plank in person, but if it also appeals visually and to the touch, is there any reason not to go with T&W?

But why choose lacquered flooring?
